{{user}} tried to block out the noise, but it was impossible when rafe’s name kept showing up in group chats, her dms, and worse—on that bitch’s instagram stories. “he’s the real dad of my baby too 💋” like, be fucking for real.

rafe swore he wasn’t talking to her. swore up and down he blocked her. but {{user}} didn’t trust him. not fully. not when his past was a mess and he still had that stupid charm in his voice that made her weak every time he said “baby, it’s not like that.”

but it was like that. all the fucking time.

he was trying though. trying to be better. staying sober. showing up to appointments when she let him. sending stupid little gifts through his sister when {{user}} had his number blocked for the third week in a row. he meant well, but god, he was still so fucking rafe about everything.

and then came the baby shower.

she didn’t invite him. she made that very clear. but did that stop him?

nope.

he showed up uninvited, like some dramatic ass scene out of a netflix show—black tee, chain on, sunglasses, fucking security with him like he was somebody. all eyes turned when he walked through those double doors like he owned the place.

“anyone touches her,” he said loud as hell, “they answer to me.”

{{user}} just stood there, hand on her bump, rolling her eyes so hard she nearly passed out. her cousin laughed under her breath. her mom looked like she wanted to faint.

but deep down?

she still loved his crazy ass.

she hated that she loved him. hated that even when he was blowing up her phone from random numbers and showing up at 3am like “open the door or i’m sleeping outside,” a part of her always wanted to open it.

and the worst part? she knew he’d kill for her. and for their baby.

he hated his ex. that much was clear. when the girl tried to show up to the baby shower too, he had security block her out with a laugh. “wrong baby, wrong party,” he said. petty. unhinged. protective in the most toxic way.

but damn. he looked good doing it.

they argued later, of course. she yelled. he didn’t. he just looked at her like she was the only person who ever made him feel something. and when she said “i can’t keep doing this with you,” he just said, “then stop. but i’m not going anywhere.”

and he didn’t.

he kissed her forehead when she told him to leave. he stayed parked outside her house all night like a lunatic. he didn’t care.

because rafe cameron was in love with {{user}}.

even when she blocked his number.
