CHAPTER 4
Jealous
Yeah, real smooth Rae, Raven thought to herself, they're gonna ask why you stormed out. Why did I storm out? I'm not jealous, of course not, jealous of what? That preppy alien? Even though she is better looking, is probably liked more and Robin is obviously crushing on her...
Raven found herself at her favourite gothic café. She stepped inside and looked around. The place was dimly lighted with small lights on all the tables with blue shades, near the back wall was a little stage, there was a band playing some blues music. She walked to the back and sat at one of stools at the dry bar, she ordered a large Rocky Road ice cream. She mindlessly ate it slowly, deep in thought. "Hey happy face," Raven looked to her left, there was a girl sitting there. She was dressed in baggy black jeans and a tight t-shirt with the words 'God Hates Me' in red. She had short blonde hair under a trucker hat. "Hi Sarah," Raven said depressed. Sarah slide into the stool beside Raven and lifted an eyebrow "A large Rocky Road ice cream? Who is he? Don't give me that look, your obviously depressed because you're having relationship problems. So 'fess up," Raven blinked and looked down "I don't want to take about it," She mumbled picking at her ice cream. The minutes slowly ticked away, Sarah sighed and started to get up.
"Okay, there's this guy that I might like, I'm not sure," Sarah raised an eyebrow and sat back down "Then there's this other girl, who is my friend, and there is something starting between them. I saw them flirting and I lost it and stormed out," Raven sighed and took and huge bite of her ice cream. Aquilus knows so much about me, she is using Robin and Star and me. She thinks she can release it by making me jealous? I can't I have to hold it in. "I'm scared," she said quietly, Sarah chuckled softly "It's just a crush, its no big deal," Raven stood and mumbled as she walked out the cafe's door "It's more than just a crush."
Aquilus leaned against one of the big wooden crates. She lifted her head and looked around the abandoned warehouse. She sucked in a breath then coughed, "Even the air is dry and musty. Joy," she mumbled sarcastically. The warehouse used to be a fur coats company's delivery warehouse. Now, it was dry and musty, the walls were dirty and graying, the ground had scattered wooden crates with moth-eaten coats within them. There was a upper stairs, it was basically a wide walk way with some offices that Aquilus had searched and found nothing of interest. Now she was resting against a large wooden crate near the back wall fingering a glass like globe. It was divided into 2 with a little brass hinge on one of the sides. Aquilus smiled as she ran her finger on the crack that divided the two halfs "Enjoy your first crush," she pocketed the small glass globe in her robe and closed her eyes "I know I will."
Bwhahahahahah ::evil eyes::
