"No you're both welcome to stay here, I just haven't decided whether or not to read it to be honest." Heather said.
Rafe was quite shocked to see her hug Derian out of nowhere. Charm certainly runs in the family...

He really hated guys who hurt girls as much as this one hurt Heather, and he never understood why girls gave such guys the time of day. It was a mystery... and like the meaning of life or the reason for existence, it would probably never be solved. "What I really think you should do is to forget about the jerk, get him where it will hurt the most by being happy and totally unaware of him," His voice became quiet as he continued with his eyes glues to the floor, "Its how my mom coped..."
...and Derian just continued to use it. Rafe just ignored the comment about his mom and focused on Heather's problem.
"Listen, I've dealt with being hurt, it's one of the worse feelings in the world. I witnessed, for a better part of a year, the girl I loved date my best friend. It tore me to pieces, but you know what? Things happen for a reason and things turn out for the best." Rafe gave her shoulder a little rub.
