A/N Am I close or should I just stop?
Chapter 3 I have you thats all I need
Raven's POV
I was hiding in the habitat when Storm came round. She mainly acted as a home helper, which meant she did the chores around the house that I couldn't do and when I was really really tired she acted as a nurse and helped me wash and get dressed. I quite liked my habitat, each cage or enclosure (if you will) was designed specially for each creature and I had alot of creatures. I had almost every animal you could think of. Spiders, snakes, mice and of course my aquarium filled with fish. The reason I had these animals? Because I could. I had just finished talking to Bella and Drake (my two wolf-spiders) when Storm came in. Yes each animal had a name, luckily my memory was very good because I had over fifty fire-ants. Anyways Storm came in and caught me hiding. Yes I was hiding within my hiding place.
"I take it your having a bad day?" Storm smiled as we hobbled from the habitat and went back inside.
"Nah not really just that same annoying dream"
"You and Randy on a deserted island getting married?" Storm asked as we sat down, she already had the coffee ready for us.
"Yeah, I swear my dreams are just taunting me, just like God taunted Moses in the desert"
"Tested. God tested Moses Raven"
"Not what I read" I muttered darkly. "Anyways how are you?"
"I am good and how are you?"
"Well I'm good, Charlie on the other hand is being a jerk"
"Charlie?" Storm questioned raising her eyebrows
I merely pointed at the smiley face on my fresh bandage.
"You drew a face on your bandage and you called it Charlie?"
"Well I was going to call it Randy but that would be creepy"
"Not to mention heart-wrenching"
"That too"
We sat in silence as my phone began to ring again and the door rattled with life. It had been happening all year eventually I just ignored it. It would stop by itself.
"Are you not going to answer that?" Storm asked as my father started to shout through the door. I ignored him as I always did.
"Nope, I'd rather not"
"And what if he offers you a million dollars?"
I just laughed "He's already shouted that out and I just ignored it, it's not like I already have that much money"
The banging and shouting finally stopped as Dad went away, he wasn't gone he had just gone around the back. That wasn't much of a threat, he wouldn't find the back-door. Only Storm knew of the back-door trick. The laundry room had the backdoor, behind it I had put hunks of wood, it looked as though I had blocked the entry, when actually it was just another door. I stole the idea from those old Bugs Bunny cartoons.
"How do you stop the ringing?" Storm asked as the landline began again.
"The machine picks it up" I answered grabbing a metal baseball bat and started to smack the machine repeatedly. "See?"
Storm cracked up laughing "I have got to rememebr that one"
"So what are you and Jeff doing tonight?"
Storm shrugged "Probably nothing, why you want us to come for dinner?" She laughed at her own joke.
"And while I'm at it I'm going to invite Randy and John"
We had a good laugh before settling down "Do you think you will ever rejoin the outside world?"
"Nah, whats so good about the outside world anyway? It's just a bunch of dumb people with their dumb dreams and even dumber kids"
"Thats so nice"
"What can I say? I'm not a very nice person"
"Do you miss him at all?"
"Of course I do but you and I know what will happen if I let him help me. He will lose his life and I don't want that to happen"
"So your just going to be alone forever?"
"I have you Storm, thats all I need" I laughed patting her hand. Liar, liar pants on fire. You need Randy, you've always needed Randy.
