You and Rafe had been friends for a long time. Since before he even cared that you were a Pogue.
Even back when he had a heart.

Now, you two were pretty much dating. You had been for a few years. It wasn't official, but of course, nothing ever was with Rafe. But with the way you two were spending time together all the time, it pretty much was a confirmation. Right?

You knew he was a bad guy. You knew he was toxic. That he hurt people. He did coke. He jumped people in his free time. The list went on.

But it was too late to leave him.

And as Rafe's own sister Sarah had said;

"It's too late to start moving on. He's got your heart in a headlock."
