Hey, little authors note...I know its a pretty random pairing but i'm excited it and I had to chuck in the whole "Raven and Eddie" thing since its soooo meant to be! anyway, enjoy the chapter and let me know what you think xx

Getting ready.

"Rae? Hurry up! Come on, we'll miss our flight!" Chelsea Daniels yelled up the stairs, whilst sharing an exasperated look with Mr Baxter, who was leaning up against the door, twirling his car keys impatiently.

"I'm coming, I'm coming!" They heard Raven grumble as she attempted to drag an enormous suitcase down the stairs. Chelsea gaped.

"Rae! We're going to Boston for four days! Not four months! What the hell have you got in there?" She asked as Mr Baxter helped his daughter with her excessive luggage.

"Necessities Chels. I mean- oh thanks daddy."

"N-no p-problem Raven" Puffed Mr Baxter, Raven darted past him towards her best friend.

"I mean Chelsea, last time I was there I met London Tipton and Hannah Montana. The Hannah Montana Chels!"

"Yeah, I know- they fought over a dress that you'd designed and ended up ripping it- you went on about it for about two months solid!"

"Well, this time I've come prepared."

There was a thud as Ravens dad tumbled down the last few steps. The girls rushed to help him up.

He wheezed; "What I still don't understand girls, is how you guys managed to con me and Chelsea's into paying for you pair to stay in the Tipton hotel!"

Raven grinned, she'd listened to her father go on like this ever since the trip was booked.

"Because you love us daddy."

"Hmm." He smirked "You'll be the death of me Raven Baxter"

"Not for a long time yet dad."

A while later, the girls sat quietly in the backseat of Victor Baxter's car, each happily daydreaming about what the next four days had in store for them.

Mr Baxter hummed cheerfully;

A kid-free house for the weekend! It's real good luck that Corey's decided to stay at a friends house, I can have all my poker buddies over!

"You know" Ravens voice interrupted his thoughts; "It's a shame Eddie couldn't come this weekend."

"Mmm." Chelsea agreed "but he couldn't really miss that convention could he?"

"What convention is that then?" Asked Mr Baxter, secretly very glad that his daughters boyfriend couldn't accompany them on their trip.

"This convention for talented budding musicians in Ohio" Raven explained, her eyes glazing over as she thought of him- who'd have thought that her old buddy Eddie would turn out to be the love of her life? She smiled. Chelsea noticed and sighed quietly to herself, sometimes it was hard to see her best friends all loved up while she had nobody. Raven noticed this and reached out her hand to touch Chelsea's.

"Hey, who knows Chels- maybe you'll meet somebody out in Boston!" Chelsea brightened.

"Yeah" Smiled Victor, looking at the redhead via the mirror above him.

"I've heard that Boston has a very high lesbian population Chelsea!"

"Dad!" Raven practically choked on her own saliva. She was slowly getting used to the fact her best friend was gay- but hearing her own father come out with something like that was just too much for her to take.

Chelsea said nothing, just continued to smile, maybe this trip would be the start of something new.
