Rafe x Reader

Chapter 1

"Yeah, can we just stop fighting for once. And let's just chill." Pope jumped in. John B hummed in response and nodded his head.

"So when can we go?" JJ whined.

"We can go now." John B takes out his phone. "I'll let her know that we're leaving the chateau."

JJ picked up the cooler as we all made our way down to the water.

The boat ride was awkward, what Kiara said was only a small comment, and it wasn't the first time she has said something like that. So I don't know why the group is taking so long to recover from it. Usually we have a casually conversation flowing, joking around, having a fun time. But right now all we got is JJ attempting to fill the silence with  shitty jokes and stories. God, I can't believe what it's gonna be like when Sarah's with us.

When we got to the docks at Sarah's, she wasn't there yet. Who was there yet and was walking towards us was Sarah's dipshit older brother: Rafe.
Kie groaned. "She isn't even here yet."
"No, but look who is.." Pope sat up.
"...the devil himself." I rolled my eyes. "Why is he walking towards."
"What are you losers doing here?" He said looking down at us with furrowed eyebrows.
"Oh you know just taking out your sister." JJ replied
"Why?" Rafes face was full of disgust. Not sure if it was for his sister or for us - the people he considered 'dirty pogues' and 'trash'.
"Well our friend...Greg, invited us over to his place and he seemed pretty determined on getting us to invite Sarah. You know Greg: big fella, triple chin, lil bit of stubble." JJ dragged his index finger around he jaw when said the thing about the 'lil stubble'. "He's a crack dealer and a pimp, but he means well." He slowly nodded.
Rafe rolled his eyes. "Whatever man. I don't give a shit anyway." About to walk away, Rafe then looked at me, holding eye contact for a few seconds. And I swear I heard a small bye, before he then walked away and towards the house. Walking past him was Sarah, who I could now see the look of confusion on her face when she got closer to us.
"Why was Rafe over here?"
"Just the usual, being a dick for no reason." John b smiled and held out his hand for Sarah to grab, then helped her step into the boat. "No offence of course."

She chuckled, "None taken." She put down her backpack "Hey guys." Sarah smiled at all of us.

I grabbed a beer out of the cooler and passed it to her. "What's up Sarah, how you been?"

"Good, Good. You?" She sat down next to me. I don't know what happened with Kie and Sarah, so I don't understand why Kie could hate someone so nice. Never have I had a bad experience with Sarah, even as she's the 'kook princess'. Sarah would always smile basically any time she said something, and that smile was so contagious.

"I'm fine. Nothings been going on, so." I replied.

"Hey, what are we doing anyway."

"Uhmm, I don't know. Guys?" I turned to everyone. "Where are we going?"

"We could just drive around the marsh for a while and drink, it's not like anything new but it's always cool." John b, who was driving away from the Cameron property, suggested.

"Yeah, that could be fun. Swimming in the marsh and stuff." Sarah added to the idea.

We hung out until sunset: drinking, talking, fishing, and swimming. It actually wasn't awkward at all thankfully, and nothing happened between Kie and Sarah -they ignored each other the whole day, always apart of different conversations.

My mind seemed to wonder to when Rafe was talking to us. And I know I'm probably over thinking this but he looked at me and said bye. Was that bye directing at me? No. Probably directed at the whole group. Then why did he stare at me? We held eye contact for ages, maybe it was directed at me, but why then? This is stupid. Let's just forget about it.
