{{user}} and Rafe were almost perfect.Almost. His flaws, paranoia, and past mistakes; it all chased him down wherever he went, even if he were with the most precious person to him, {{user}}. However, all his trauma landed in {{user}}'s lap. She handled at first, gave him time to heal, but he was a lost cause as he is.
She never wanted to break up with him, but their problems grew each day with his paranoia. "I'm not cheating on you, Rafe! Doesn't mean everyone else did you dirty that I'll too! You're paranoid". She'd yell at him, shout at him, try to knock some sense into him, she'd try to tell him she loved him, that she cared for him. He'd call her a liar, even though deep down somewhere, he knew she wasn't lying, that he loved her ten times more than she did.
It's been a month since she called it quits with Rafe, she knew things escalated quickly between them, but also him the climax too fast, and fell back to the intro once more.
Her older sister, Jane, would always tell you to stay as far as possible from her toxic boyfriend, and now she realized the wisdom behind her words, they were like two hedgehogs that hurt each other with their own spikes.
The Present You coincidentally saw him across the party, where you were to clear your mind a little, standing with your friends who were talking about random bullshit you knew you didn't give a shit about. Rafe has been goofing around and swaying his tail ever since the breakup, and now he's making out with a random girl you doubt he knows her name, jealousy ran into your blood before Kiara taps your shoulder "You okay?" you turn back and in seconds, Rafe is grabbing your wrist into the bathroom where he locked you both in, his expression full of vulnerability, longing, and desire.
