Disclaimer: I'm only going to tell you once. I DO NOT OWN THAT'S SO RAVEN. I'm just a teen with a wild imagination.
A/N: Hello. Ok, this is my second story on here so far. Check out my last one. It is called, "She'll never know". I know I said I was going to write a sequel to that one, but that can wait. I promise I will do it though. Just not yet. Anyways, I hope you enjoy this one. I was inspired to write this one after I saw an episode. I'll give you a little summary.
Raven is throwing a party in her room. She doesn't have a date so she signs up on a dating site at her school. She finds her perfect match which just so happens to be Eddie. They decide "What the heck" let's try things out. And they find that they just might like each other. After one kiss, they decide there is no spark and they should just stay friends. Since they have been best friends since elementary school, they feel it is too awkward. Raven has several visions of her future, and Eddie is apart of it. They try to work things out again, but it is still not working. Eddie ends it with a deep kiss. They laugh it off and still say they don't feel anything. But after he leaves, they both blush and smile. The End.
That is a real episode. So I am going to take things from there. Enjoy!
A month later.
Raven, Eddie, and Chelsea sat in Raven's bedroom playing slap jack.
"Got it!" Raven squealed while slapping her hand down on the pile of cards.
"Awe man! You'd think Jack would get tired of being slapped by the same person. Ya know?" Chelsea sighed.
"What in the world are you talking about Chels?" Raven said looking at Chelsea oddly.
"Well, Jack would probably agree with me. It's someone else's turn to slap him." Chelsea said proudly.
"Chels. It's a card game. The rules are, you see the Jack, and you slap the Jack. And I just so happened to slap the Jack more than you because I'm fast." Raven said rolling her eyes.
Chelsea pondered on that a moment and then shrugged, totally forgetting about what they had been talking about.
They all squealed when another Jack came up again. Raven slapped but found that Eddie got to it first. She felt a tingle go through her hand when she saw her hand on his and quickly pulled away. Eddie eyed her for a moment and gathered up the pile of cards. An awkward silence came over the room for a few seconds.
"Boy, it's a good thing you two decided to just be friends, or this game would make things pretty awkward. Ya know, with the several times that you two touched hands and eyed each other. (Pause) And what was I talking about? (Pause) Oh well." Chelsea sighed and smiled.
Raven and Eddie looked at Chelsea as if lobsters were coming out of her ears. They both had no idea how Chelsea could be so random, but what Chelsea hadn't noticed was how awkward things had been whether they both admitted it or not. Did they make the right choice? Maybe they didn't feel anything a month ago because their life long friendship blinded them from the truth? Yeah. Maybe they never expected to ever be more than friends so it felt so different when it actually happened. But what if it was meant to be? (Pause) Naw. They both shook their heads. All three of them continued to play the game.
The next day.
Raven spotted Chelsea in the hallway and walked over to her.
"Hey Chels."
"Hey Rae. What's up?"
"Can I talk to you for a moment?"
"Yeah."
Raven pulled Chelsea aside.
"Have things looked awkward between me and Eddie lately?" Raven said curiously.
"Actually. They kind of have." Chelsea said concerned.
"I know. And I don't know why. I mean, it's not the kind of awkwardness that I felt before. It's different."
"How so Rae?"
"I mean, before I couldn't see me and him as more than friends. And now, it feels like just being friends is not right."
"Well, do you feel like you like him more than a friend?"
"Well, not really. It's just, ever since it all happened; I guess I won't ever forget it."
"Well, maybe you are afraid that you guys won't have the same friendship if you two hooked up."
"Nah. I mean, at least I don't think that's how it is."
Raven realized that for once, Chelsea was giving good advice.
"Well Rae. Then don't worry about it. You're just a little curious on how it would look if you two were together. It will pass."
"Thanks Chels."
They hugged and walked to class.
Later.
Eddie spotted Chelsea in the hallway and walked up to her.
"Hey Chels."
"Hey Eddie."
"Can I talk to you for a moment?"
"What about?"
"Raven."
"Oh is this about the awkwardness between you two?"
"Yeah--Wait a minute. How did you know?"
"Well, Raven talked to me about----uh never mind." Chelsea said nervously.
Eddie shook his head.
"Anyways, yeah. Do you see it too?" Eddie said curiously.
"Yeah. But as I told----uh myself… You're just a little curious on how it would look if you two were together. It will pass Eddie."
"Are you sure? I mean, what if maybe I was afraid that we wouldn't have the same friendship if we hooked up?"
"Well Rae doesn't think so. So, I'm sure that's not it. I—"
"How would you know what Rae thinks?" Eddie said suspiciously.
"Uh, just guessing." Chelsea laughed nervously.
"Well, I sure hope your right. Thanks Chels."
Eddie sighed and walked off to class. Chelsea's eyes widened as the light bulb clicked on inside her head.
"Uh oh." She told herself.
She bit her finger and walked to class.
A week later.
Things had finally started to go back to normal. Raven and Eddie were back to being their old selves and the old friends that
they had once been. Apparently they were just meant to be friends because they didn't feel awkward any more. Or so they
thought.
One night Chelsea, Eddie, and Raven sat on the couch eating pizza and watching a movie. Eddie threw a pillow at Raven which turned into a huge pillow fight amongst the three of them. Chelsea squealed and leapt up towards the kitchen. Eddie leapt up after her but Raven had caught on to Eddie's ankle. He whirled around and tripped landing on the floor. Raven stood above him and laughed at his facial expressions as Chelsea's pillow came flying from the kitchen and hit him in the head. Eddie tackled Raven to the couch just as she felt her cell phone vibrating in her pocket.
"H-hold on guys." Raven fixed her hair and answered her phone. "Hello? Yes this is Raven. Who's this? Jason? Oh, hey Jason. Um, I'm fine. How are you? Mmhhmm. Oh…I see…."
Raven eyed Chelsea and arched her eyebrows. "Well….I don't know. Mmhhmm. Yes, I will get back to you. Yes, ok…talk to you later. Bye."
Raven hung up her phone and sighed.
"Who was that Rae?" Eddie asked.
"Um, that was Jason Bringhem."
"You mean "Jason" Jason? The Jason you had a crush on for like two years?" Chelsea said ecstatic.
"Uh, yeah. He wanted me to go to a movie with him." Raven said shyly.
"Are you going to?" Eddie said with no emotion.
"Well I don't know. I mean---"
"Well just remember Rae, he pretty much used you for those two years. You know, flirting with you but never asking you out? And when you finally asked him out he said no." Eddie said firmly.
"Well, come on Eddie. He obviously realized what he was missing out on. I think you should go out with him Rae." Chelsea said all smiley.
"Chels, come on. Raven is smarter than that. She's over him. He was just a big jerk. Right Rae?" Eddie asked seriously.
"Well, I do still think he's cute. And maybe I was just a little bit over dramatic about it all in the past." Raven said unsurely.
"Rae, he's going to hurt you. Again. That wouldn't be a smart choice." Eddie said flatly.
"Eddie, let's just let her make her own choice." Chelsea said.
"Chels, you're not helping." Eddie said angrily.
"W-wait a minute. Guys, let's not fight here. It's just a simple date." Raven stared at her phone.
"Nothing's simple with that guy." Eddie said under his breath.
That remark caught Raven and Chelsea's attention.
"Well, I don't know why you're throwing a fit about it, Eddie. You don't even know the guy." Raven said angrily crossing her arms.
"I do know that he's a player Rae."
"I'm sorry, but it sounds to me like someone's a little jealous." Chelsea said.
"I'm not jealous! I'm just trying to be a good friend."
"Well, try harder Eddie. And you know what? I wasn't going to go out with Jason, but now…I think I will." Raven said angrily staring in Eddie's direction.
"Fine."
"Fine!"
Raven and Eddie walked away in different directions leaving Chelsea alone in the living room. She looked around and plopped on the couch. She knew exactly what was happening between Raven and Eddie. And she debated keeping it to herself or trying to help them through it. Either way it would be hectic.
