Chapter 10 Bullet
"My legs are dangling off the edge, stomach full of pills didn't work again, I'll put a bullet in my head and I'll be gone, gone, gone, gone." Raven sung rather badly, since running off she took the back alley and came back to the arena. She wanted to run away but the fact remained the same, she knew no one here and so she was safer at the arena, well almost. She took the elevator as high as it would go, from there she did some climbing and now she sat on the edge of a very tall building, her legs dangling over the edge and a bottle of bourbon in her hands.
"So are you jumping or what?"
Raven would of jumped if she didn't hear the elevator ding, so she knew someone was coming. She expected her pissed off Uncle, instead she got a pissed off Viper, well a Viper none the less.
"Just looking at the world, singin some Hollywood Undead, what are you doin?"
"Well I just lost a brawl with Kane so I thought I would kill myself" Randy smirked taking a seat next to her, Randy made sure he kept his legs on the floor side of the building, his back to the pavement below.
"Your facin the wrong way" Raven laughed picking up her bottle again. "So really, why are you here?"
"I figured you could use a friend"
"And why out of all the people I could be-friend, what makes you think I would choose you?"
"Well I can be pretty likeable when I wanna be"
"Yes I remember"
"I heard you slashed Hunter's hand"
"And I heard that you accused him of being a sick freak" Raven countered taking another drink.
"What was I meant to think?"
"Gee I don't know Randy, he's been your friend since forever you could at least give him the benefit of the doubt, but you instantly jump to incest"
"I apologized to him even though he didn't tell me the whole story, too busy with his hand"
Raven rolled her eyes, taking a long drink she put her bottle down and began to speak, "He handcuffed me to him to stop me from leavin, we watched movies and then he took them off. I didn't feel safe so I asked him to put the cuffs back on, they can't get me if I was cuffed to him"
"Yeah cause that don't sound fucked up at all" Randy bit out sarcastically. Raven merely smiled
"Thats the truth, you can think what you want Orton"
"You know I've been thinking" "Explains the steam and the popped blood vessels"
Randy laughed "I was thinking that maybe I could help you"
"Randy you have already taken my virginity, I've got nothin left that you could possibly want."
"You think I want to help because I want sex?" He narrowed his eyes at her, the orbs growing frostier than normal.
She looked him up and down "Yeah pretty much. Fool me once shame on you, fool me twice shame on me. Fool me a third time, you're gonna get curb stomped by Raven Venom"
Randy got down from his seat, his ass starting to hurt from the cold concrete "Raven I just want to help"
"Because you're usually so helpful?"
"Because right now I'm the only guy who's offering his hand, so far I'm the only one wanting to help you" He stretched his massive tattooed arm out, Raven looked at it wondering if she should take that leap of faith. So far he had a point, no one else was offering their hand, they seemed more concerned with letting her drown, so far Randy was the only one wanting to pull her from the darkened abyss that had become her drowning pool. With only a little bit of certainty but alot of fear, she put her hand in his massive one. Getting off the side of the building she looked deep in his eyes. For a moment she was so sure that she saw happiness, happiness that she was letting him in.
"So now that we're friends and I'm helping you does that mean you won't tell Hunter what I did. I'm at a point in my career where being brutally murdered won't really help"
Raven looked up at the six foot Viper, "Randy you don't know me very well and thats you're down fall. In interest of surviving, if I have too I will not hesitate to throw you under the bus so I hope you like tyre marks"
Randy couldn't help the hurt in his veins, no he didn't expect to be forgiven straight away, what he did was pretty cold but it was like she would never forgive him no matter what. It was like he was wasting his time.
"Don't take it personally Randy, from a young age I was taught what survival instincts were for, now it comes down to two things"
"Which are?"
"Me or them and there is no way in hell I'm gonna let them win again." Raven's eyes darkened again and her grip on his hand became a death grip. Muttering away to herself Randy decided to just let it pass. Interrupting her only meant she would strike.
"You know you go off on random tangents for no reason what so ever"
Raven rolled her eyes at him "Yes Randy you have tattoos, we get it"
"What?"
"Sorry when I get bored of a conversation I tend to just make up my own"
Randy wrapped a giant arm around her shoulders "C'mon lets get you off the building before you start thinking you can fly"
"Just like that guy who was helped with his flying lesson from Lucky Luciano" Raven laughed letting him lead her. Randy shot her an odd look before choosing to let it go. Raven couldn't help it but in his arms she felt protected, just like last time before he punted her heart in the ass.
