“i’m sorry rafe, but i can’t be friends with someone who still associates with topper.” his face falls as you continued. “he fat shames and bullies me, i just don’t want anything to do with him.” his eyes trace down your body, “when did he say that?” you roll your eyes, scoffing, “it doesn’t matter when he said it. he still said it.” rafe shakes his head, shocked since he was unaware of what topper was saying.
he thinks, trying to figure out how he can fix the situation at hand. “ill tell him to stop! i promise, he won’t say anything anymore. everything will be normal again.” you stare at him, unamused. “rafe,” you start, his eyes look at yours. “what?” he responds, questioning you. “you aren’t hearing me correctly rafe… i don’t want to talk to him ever again. even if you ask him to not say anything anymore, that doesn’t mean he won’t think the same things, and it definitely doesn’t change the past.” his hands run themselves through his hair.
“what can i do? i don’t want to lose you baby, tell me what i need to do.” you shrug, unsure on what to say. "i dont know what you can do, because the only solution we have is to cut him out of our lives." he groans, but before he can protest you interrupt, "he is openly fat shaming your girlfriend rafe, doesn't that upset you?" his eyes squint. "yes, that does upset me." he turns away, walking out the front door. "you coming?" you eagerly follow after him. you're unsure of what he is about to do, but you knew you did not want to miss it.
rafe is on a quick hunt searching for topper. the more he thinks about what you said, the grumpier he becomes. “when i find topper, im gonna kick his ass.” his anger fueled his adrenaline, and he was walking so fast you struggled to keep up. “rafe! slow down!” you hurriedly followed behind him, you finally reach him, his car in sight. he opened the passenger door, “get in.” you obediently do as he says, letting him close the door for you. you reach for your seatbelt, fastening it.
rafe speedily approaches the driver side door, he rips it open, his face was red with heat. his chest heaving slightly. he steps into the car, turning the key. he made sure the cool ac was on, before glancing over at you. “baby.” he spoke sternly, and it immediately brought an uneasy feeling to your gut. “yes, rafe?” you spoke softly, your eyes locked with his. “if anyone ever, says something to you like that, you need to tell me, right then and there.” you nod but he continues. “don’t wait to tell me someone hurt you. i need you to trust me.” you smile.
“i do trust you rafe, and i always tell you when someone has been mean or backhanded. but it’s different when it’s your friends.” he nods, “it’s you before my friends. i couldn’t care less about them. you are my priority.” you pull rafe into a tight hug, your arms wrapped around his shoulders. you look up, whispering kindly, “you do protect me rafe, i love you so much.” he hungrily leans over the middle console, his lips crashing against yours. “i love you so much more.” he puts the car in reverse, “how many times has he said mean stuff to you?” rafe asks. you think for a moment. “most of the time when he is around he’d say a mean comment.” rafe hands are gripping the wheel firmly, his interrogation with you only adding to the flame. “i can’t believe all this time he was disrespectful to you, this wont happen again.”
rafe puts the car in park outside of toppers home. “you stay here.” rafe pulls out his phone, dialing toppers number. “hey, i’m outside.” you couldn’t hear what toppers response was. “nah, how about you meet me out here?” rafe rolls the window down, “in case you want to hear what’s about to go down.” he chuckles darkly, hopping out his car, shutting the door behind him. topper is approaching the car, and rafe yells out. “topper! yeah man, look.” rafe gets stern and serious as he steps closer to him. “you’ve been saying shit to my girl, that’s not cool.” toppers face goes white. “no, its just jokes, i swear.” he tries to excuse his behaviors but rafe doesn’t buy it. “well she doesn’t think it’s funny.” he tilts his head, “and right now?” he starts, “i don’t find the shit funny.” topper nods, backing away slowly. rafe lunges forward, getting in his face. “is that all you can say to me?” rafe scoffs, “still such a pussy. come on!” topper looks around, and you make eye contact with him through the cars windshield. “look, ill tell your girl i’m sorry. i wasn’t trying to be a dick.” rafe nods, “okay, yeah. lets go.” rafe leads topper to your window and you roll it down. “i’m sorry for saying those things to you. i wasn’t trying to hurt your feelings.” you nod, “yeah you were a real asshole.” you admit. rafe nods, “thank you topper, but i still have to do this.” rafe swings topper straight in the face, and topper goes flying back. “next time, think before you speak.” topper groans, “what the fuck?” you hide your smile, “sorry man, but you disrespected me, by disrespecting her.” rafe hops into the car. “i’m so sorry baby.” you bite your lip. “don’t be sorry rafe, you defended me.” the two of you drive off, leaving topper blindsided.
