18 with soft rafe pls❤️ i feel like somewhere deep down he’s just someone who’s hurting who was never made to feel like they were enough or loved by the people that should always make him feel that way (his dad for example) so i feel like if a girl entered his life, after some time he drops the hard exterior and shows that side more. that he just wants to be loved and cared for. that’s what i like to think instead of him being a psycho killer ( i like to be fully unaware so that i feel better about being attracted to him😌)
18. “can you just… lay here with me?”
your heart was pounding as you wiped the sweat off your forehead. rafe was staring up at the ceiling, chest rising and falling as the satin sheet covered his torso down.
you stood up to get dressed, knowing that after rafe and you had done a couple rounds, it was expected of you to leave.
that’s how it had been for over a year. you didn’t ask him questions about his personal life, but you were always there when he needed to relieve some stress.
but as you went to grab undergarments, rafe’s rasp voice startled you.
“can you just… lay here with me?”
his voice was so coarse, almost if he spoke to loud his voice would crack.
you blinked at him a couple times, but the look on his face was something you noticed immediately.
and then you found yourself slipping back under the sheet, not knowing if he wanted to cuddle or just lay with you.
but when he put his head on your chest and wrapped his arms around you, you didn’t ask any questions.
you just placed your hand in his hair, gently massaging his scalp as he closed his eyes and relaxed.
and rafe loved that you didn’t ask questions, because he’s not sure he would be able to explain them without breaking down.
but he loved you, and despite him never showing it, you made him a safe space. a space where he didn’t have to try, impress, or pretend.
and he would do anything for you.
