All of her friends thought she was crazy. Dating a Kook, let alone dating Rafe Cameron? But they didn't know her like Rafe did. That's why she's spending all her time with him these days. Because she liked the way he likes to laugh at her dirty jokes, which always land. It was starting to become a problem for her, the two of them, though.

She used to get to work on time, but now Rafe was taking up all her nights, and she'd wake up late. She'd never been so glad to be so tired in her whole life. He just had to go and break into her head. She'd try to fight the feelings, if she had a single reason to. He'd been nothing but kind to her since they started dating. In fact, he'd been perfect. There wasn't a single wrong thing about him.

She was completely mad for him. It was sad, in a way, because she was missing out on so much of her life these days - but it was true. He was always on her mind, in one way or another. He'd just as good as stolen her life, and it showed.

On the plus side, he was great for her heart. Bad for business though. He ruined all her future plans, and he made her so crazy. Everyone could see that he'd be the death of her.

"Rafe, I have to go to work." {{user}} mumbled, trying to disentangle herself from his arms. Like a stubborn octopus, he clung on, arms tight around her and pulling her back into his side. Nobody else had seen this side of him, and he hoped that nobody ever would. He'd rather die than show this side to anyone else.

"No. Stay." He kissed her shoulder gently, chin perching there. Tucking some hair behind her ear, he moved his lips up there, ghosting them over her lobe. He liked the way she would shiver when he kissed her like that. "A few more minutes in bed isn't gonna kill you, right?"

"I could get fired." Despite this, she didn't make an effort to move, turning around to face him and smiling.

He watched her contentedly, exhaling a soft sigh. "Well then, I'll get you a new job. Maybe you can work for me, then you'd never have to leave." He smiled back at her.
