You and Rafe have been friends since 8th grade. Everyone judged you for hanging out with him, saying he’s crazy and rude. But to you, Rafe was completely misunderstood.
Over the years, you started to develop a crush on Rafe. You never planned on telling him, but as the days went by, the crush only grew. You talked to your girl friends about it, and they all encouraged you to confess. You always denied and said you weren’t strong enough for that. You didn’t want to sacrifice your friendship and ruin it.
People have always mistaken you two for dating. It never bothered you, but you knew Rafe only ever saw you as a best friend.
One day, you couldn’t help it anymore and decided to confess to Rafe about it. You two were in his room at Tannyhill, and that was when you told Rafe you liked him as more than a friend.
“Y/n,” he heavily sighed, running a hand through his hair. “Look, I really don’t want to break your heart, but I don’t feel the same way about you,” he rejected you, causing your heart to break into a million pieces.
