I'll Cover You:

Prologue
Mimi smiled up at Roger as he held their new baby girl.
"What should we name her?" he asked Mimi.
"I've got an idea…Raven." she replied.
"I've got her middle name chosen…Mimi." Roger said. He stroked Ravens small hand.
"Raven Mimi Davis…" he whispered with a smile.
Ch. 1
"Raven!! Get up girly!" shouted Mimi down the hall to her daughter.
"Do I have to?" Raven shouted/groaned back.
"Yes...you know we have company coming over and you need to help me clean up the house." Mimi replied. Raven kicked the covers off her bed, and got up. She wandered down the hall after getting dressed in her usual outfit: blue jeans, white t-shirt, and a black sweatshirt.
"I'm out of bed and dressed...what more do you want?" she grumbled to her mom. Mimi only smiled at her.
"You sound just like your father..." she said mussing up Ravens jet black hair, and then finished: "and dress like him to." Raven returned a small smile.
"Who the heck are we having over for New Years Eve?" Raven asked.
"Some old friends of your fathers and mine...and their kids." Mimi replied. Raven walked onto the fire escape and noticed two different cars pull up.
"Mom!! Someone's here..."she shouted into the apartment.
