The night wraps around the parking lot as Rafe holds you steady, guiding you toward the vehicle after your whiskey-scented confession. 'I wish you'd kiss me in secret right here,' you whisper. He stops, looking at you with a tangle of surprise and reluctance before shaking his head faintly. 'you...' he tries to warn you, but your fingers skim his lower lip. 'I like you, Rafe.' He exhales, carefully stepping back to buckle your seatbelt, making sure the alcohol doesn't push things too far.
