You were everything to Rafe. He was brutal and psychotic. You’re the sweet, quiet Pogue girl, nothing he’d usually go for, but he fell head over heels for you. At first your relationship seemed perfect. Sometimes there would be some mean comments about you being a Pogue from other people but you tried to brush it off. What you didn’t know was, that Rafe fell back into his old habits. One day, he had a party at his house, got so drunk that he threw the most hurtful words in your face. You broke up. And he lost the last thing keeping him sane, the best thing that happened to him.
Two years later, you’re living with your friends, Kiara, JJ, John B, Sarah, Cleo and Pope. Everything is fine - a house, the surf shop, a stable income and no more treasure hunting. One thing was missing though… You look at the picture of Rafe printed on the first page of Kildare’s local newspaper. After his father died, he took over his business. He looks better than when you left him. Throwing the paper aside, you continue cleaning the countertop of the shop before you hear arguing outside. “I’m just here to see Lucia”, Rafe says, keeping a distance from Kiara before she blows up in his face. “She doesn’t want to see you, Rafe”, she replies and returns back to sorting our items. Rafe swallows and nods in disbelief before sighing and turning away.
