forbidden love

Chapter eighteen

Madison Harper
Rafe and I woke up that morning and immediately burned the clothes we wore that night. We packed our bags and drove to his house. I decided to turn my phone back on and instantly regretted it.

I had over 20 missed calls from the pouges and over 20 messages from them.

missed calls from, John b. JJ. Kiara. Pope. Mom.

My mom? What the fuck.

I sighed staring at my phone and Rafe turned to look at me.

"What's wrong?" He said while looking back at the road.

"I-uhm it's nothing." I said with a fake smile.

"Something is wrong you're a terrible liar." He chuckled. I sat there unsure on what to do. Everyone is mad at me, but Ward knew where we were? Why didn't he just tell Sarah to tell the pouges?

"It's just, my mom called me and I haven't spoke to her since she and my father left. Which was years ago. I- I don't know it's just weird." I confessed.

"Shit im sorry. Why don't you just call her back." He said as we pulled up to his drive way. I sighed while shutting my eyes. As if it were that easy. I haven't talked to her in so long and now she wants to call?

"Ill try." I said and he nodded. We got out of the car and decided to just leave our bags. We walked in the house to see a very angry Sarah and the pouges. Great. They all whipped their heads to us and eyes wide.

"Madison! Oh my god." JJ said running over to me and pulling me into a big hug. My arms wrapped around his neck as his around my waist. I side eyed Rafe who had his jaw clenched staring at JJ and I in pure jealousy. Funny.

When we finally pulled away the rest came over to us in happiness but anger.

"Where the fuck did you go! You left us with no fucking info on where you were or anything!" Kiara said and the rest agreed. I looked up to Rafe who was looking down at me telling me not to tell them anything and make up a lie.

"Im sorry guys Rafe and I just went to take a little break so we just went somewhere for 2 days. Im sorry I didn't tell you guys anything." I said and they looked at us with confusion.

"You guys were together? Like alone?" John b said and I shut my eyes nodding my head. Shit.

"WHAT THE HELL!" Sarah shouted suddenly causing me to flinch. "You said it was fake!"

"I can't believe this shit!" JJ said shaking his head at me in disappointment.

"JJ.." Kie whispered trying to calm him down and he just moved her away.

"I thought you said it would never happen? You lied." Sarah said walking closer to me. "You just disappeared for like 3 days, WITH MY BROTHER and expect to come back with open arms?"

"Im sorry." I whispered and she shook her head.

"You're dead to me. I don't want to see your face ever again." She said pointing a finger at me before storming off, shoving me in the process. I shut my eyes as a tear rolled down my face.

"Sarah-" Kie said chasing after her shooting me a 'im sorry' look and the rest followed putting the heads down in guilt and JJ just looked at me with disappointment. When we heard the front door shut Rafe turned to me as I started to sob.

"Im sorry-" He was about to finish but I interrupted.

"It's fine! im fine, it's not a big deal. Ill fix it later." I whispered attempting to calm myself down.

"Are you sure?" He said and I quickly answered.

"Yes!" I snapped wiping my eyes. He stared at me with concern before pulling me into a hug.

"It's okay. I know what we did was uhm a lot and it's taking a lot of affect on you but just relax it's okay." He said rubbing my back in circles as I cried into him. Truth is, I didn't feel bad she was dead and I saw it all happen. I felt guilty like I just backstabbed my best friend. She may have been so annoying and a bitch but I didn't want her to die, or worse witness the whole thing. What have I done?

I pulled away from Rafe and took a few steps back.

"I need to go home, im sorry." I said walking away from Rafe and to the front door.

"Madison-" He said but I was already out the door as I ran and ran. It was now pouring rain outside. The rain blending in with the tears on my face.

I just wanted to go home and sleep. Hopefully never come out of my sleep and be at peace.
