Author's note: Another chapter to read. I took a little longer to create update a new chapter because I was thinking up some knew ideas, through inspiration. This chapter is for Jessie and Prodigy. Hope you like it.
(While Raven was about to leave the school yard, to go back home, Devon comes running behind her)
Eddie: Devon, where are you go…..(running behind Devon)
(Eddie sees that Devon was running after Raven and decides to spy on them)
Devon: Raven, how are you?
(Raven continued walking in silence, like Devon had never said anything)
Devon: Raven, I know you heard me. Please just listen to me (saying sympathetically, while walking after Raven). I know what you saw that night, with Alana and I, and I am sorry. I am so sorry. There are not enough apologies in the world to let you know how sorry I am.
(Raven than stops walking to turn her attention to Devon)
Raven: If you are just as sorry as you say you are, then tell me why in the world did you kiss Alana behind my back? Tell me why? We've been in a relationship so long and we shared great chemistry. We had love for each other. We were happy….well….I "thought" we were happy with each other. Tell me why!
Devon: (looking hurt) Raven, I had feelings for Alana, but not the same feelings I had for you. Alana was very tempting. And I was dumb enough to fall for it. Please know that I am so sorry. Please take me back.
(Eddie was whispering to himself)
Eddie: Don't take him back. You came so far to turn back now. Don't do it! I love you and I don't want ANYONE to take you away from me.
(Back to Devon and Raven)
Raven: Why let temptation set us apart? Why couldn't you just say NO? Why? It would've been different if it was me kissing you, but it was not. It was Alana instead of me.
Devon: I don't know. I just don't know. But since that point….since we stopped communicating with each other, my life started shattering to pieces. You were like the foundation of it all. Now that you are gone, what is left? I love you and I only have TRUE feelings for you and only you. Alana is not even on my mind anymore.
Raven: That sounded very sincere.
Devon: More than you know it. So please, take me back and become the princess of my castle, the foundation to my life, my EVERYTHING! So how 'bout it? You want to be my girlfriend till my soul departs from my body?
Raven: (pauses to think to herself) If I take him back, I am risking the chance of being heart-broken again by him and Alana. Plus, I really think Eddie wouldn't want me to turn back around after all I surpassed. I won't turn back, but I'll make Devon feel my pain. I will take him back, but only temporarily. I will break his heart just as he broke mine. Somehow, some way. Deep inside myself, I still have feelings for him but I will not put myself in the position for the killing. He must know that I was wounded badly by his easily "tempted" soul. He left me with a wound that may not fully heal, and how would I feel knowing that he hadn't suffer close to what I have? It wasn't me that was kissing another boy but it was him that was kissing another girl. Oh, he's going to pay alright. I accept your request to be your girlfriend (she says with a friendly, yet mischievous smile). Don't consider me your ex anymore.
Eddie: (saying aloud) No! Raven why have YOU fallen into temptation yourself? It's not over yet. It's never too late to speak my mind.
(with saying that, Eddie races to where Raven and Devon stood)
Eddie: Raven, I love you!
Raven: (in a state of shock, but goes back to remembering the vision she had of Eddie and her) Eddie! We're you spying on us?
Devon: Yeah, were you (saying in a defiant voice)?
Eddie: What if I had. Raven doesn't deserve you! You make the very insides of me want to gush out in a wave of vomit and if it does happen, I want you stand right in front of me. You shouldn't beg for forgiveness after what you have done…..after what you put Raven through. Raven deserves better treatment. Love shouldn't work like a fast-food restaurant! I was there to comfort Raven in her time of need. I made sure to give her encouraging words while you, go and take advantage of that kiss by going out with Alana instead of then asking for Raven's forgiveness. Leave Raven alone. Please.
Devon: Sorry brother. Raven already said yes.
Raven: That's right. I did Eddie, and there is nothing you could do (saying in an assured voice and devilish smile, but in her eyes you could tell that she was telling Eddie that she was up to something)!
Eddie: Raven, I can't believe you! Why did you……why could you….why should you?
Raven: Devon is my man, so leave.
Devon: That's right baby girl! Let him know that you are my girl.
(as Eddie was leaving, Raven whispered in Eddie's ear with her face turned away from Devon)
Raven: (whispering) Meet me at my house tonight, at 8:00. Got it?
Eddie: (whispering back) Yeah. I got you. Your house at 8:00 tonight. Also, you got great acting skills! You go girl (he said with that cute smile)!
(with saying that, Eddie goes along with the acting by walking down the block to his house, with his head down)
(while he was walking down the block, Raven was staring at him for a second with a warm smile)
Raven: Well, baby I got to go. See you later.
Devon: Ok.
Raven: Wait! I forgot to ask. What about Alana? What will you tell her?
Devon: I will tell her that I think the relationship with her wasn't going well and I think we should stop seeing each other. If she takes it too hard, I'll just tell her that Bryan, a friend of mine, liked her wanted to go out when she was single again. He needs to hook up with somebody else than himself (says laughing)!
Raven: Ok. Cool. Well…I guess this is good-bye for now.
Devon: For now!
Raven: Bye.
Devon: Bye, boo!
(with Devon saying that, he jogs back into the gym to talk with a few of the guys).
Author's after note: What do you think? Is it cool or lame? Tell me by sending reviews. I will like to tell you all that I am going on vacation next week, so don't worry if you don't see anymore new chapters for a while. I will type one more chapter before I go on vacation for the week. I'll make it intense! I promise.
