Chapter 1
"Sorry I don't feel like going anywhere tonight," sighed Raven.
"Oh, well I thought that since we didn't go anywhere for the last two nights then you might want to go tonight. So see you later," said Malchior as he leaned in for a goodnight kiss.
But Raven just said goodnight and shut the door. If Malchior had less control over his anger he would have yanked the door open and demanded a kiss. Since she had been spending more time with her friends then him, but he deciced to just leave and go to the strip club a few blocks away and have fun with his friends and then meet his second girlfriend.
'What am I doing I don't even like him much anymore I should probably just break up with him and get this relationship over with...but that might hurt his feeling...' thought Raven.
'Just do it, he is probably two timing you anyways,' said a voice in her head.
"Oh just shut up," she said darkly to herself.
Lately she had this nagging feeling that her friends, mostly Star, had been right about her choice in a boyfriend. She kept arguing with the voice in her head as she changed to get ready for bed and as she flopped into bed she couldn't help but feel happier and happier as she drifted off to sleep.
Because she usually dream she was with a handsome man that would take her in his arms and tell her that he loved her as they walked along the beach with the sun setting. As she would turn around to give him a kiss she would wake up and never saw his face which dissapointed her but she still enjoyed the dream.
----------------------------------------------------Next morning----------------------------------------------------------------------
As Raven woke up the next morning she decided that she would pay a surprise visit Malchior to say sorry and to make it up to him.
As she crept up to the apartment door she thought that she heard giggling.
'That can't be what I heard...' deained Raven.
She went around to the back door and carefully opened the door crept down the hallway to his room and peaked through the crack in the door and saw something that she never wanted to see. Malchior in bed with a random stripped. It took all of Raven's selfcontrol as she sliently sprinted down the hall, out the back door, and to her car. As she reached her car she broke down in sobs and just slumped down to the ground.
After a few minutes of crying she determinedly drove back to her house and was about to call him when she saw a blinking light on her answering machine and thought it would be harmless to check and the first message was this:
"Hey sweety...yeah that's right I called you sweety. By the way incase your as stupid as you are mean to me this is Malchior. Anyway I think your just an emotionless witch who doesn't apperciate anyone so go find yourself a new guy to call your boyfriend..."
Raven couldn't believe what she was hearing and she could deffinately tell he wasn't drunk, she knew his drunk voice and that wasn't it.
Raven didn't bother to listen to the next messages because she was in a state of shock. On one hand she was thrilled that she wouldn't have to break up with Malchior and hurt his feelings. But on the other hand she felt like someone had stabbed her heart and twisted the knife. This was because she had A: gotten that horrible message from Malchior and B: he hadn't even had the decency to break up with her in person before going to sleep with another women. So it pissed her off and broke her heart at the same time.
'Malchior...talented enough to make a girl feel two emotions at once' she thought bitterly.
After the shock wore off she decided to go visit Star and hope that she didn't rube it in her face to badly.
-------------------------------------------Star's house---------------------------------------------------------------------
"I told you so I told you so I told you so...ok I'm done now," Star said after she did her I-told-you-so dance as she plopped down on her couch.
"Fine but now what do I do because I don't feel like I should just mop and lets this affect me," commented Raven.
"That's true...so why not go on a date? You know like with a friends so you don't have to call it a date if you don't want to, but if you do you can!" exclaimed Star recieving a confused look from Raven.
"But who would go with me?" asked Raven hoping Star would come up with some good ideas.
"Wellll...you could go with Victor."
"No, too much like a brother."
"How about Robin?"
"Are you insane? You know he likes you so he wouldn't even accept."
This suggestion rejection game went on for another ten minutes before there was a knock at Star's door.
As Star answered the door Raven in the next room heard Star squeal and someone protest to one of her bone crushing hugs.
"Poor person, who ever they are," mumbled Raven.
After waiting for another few minutes Star returned and announced "Raven I got you a date!"
"You did what!" yelled Raven.
"Calm down chica. His name is Garfield and you met him once back when we were freshmen in high school," explained Star.
"Keep going I still don't know who you mean," muttered Raven.
"Well it was in science class and he sat one row ahead of use and was funny..." Star drifted off hoping that it would click in Raven's mind and it did.
"You mean that kid who was scrany, a little annoying, and liked to be called Beast Boy?" asked Raven.
"Yep that's the one. But he has gotten better looking and filled out a little more."
"Sooo...now that you arranged this is there anyway to get out of it?"
"Nope."
"Thought so...well when is this...activity?"
"Just call it a date, but it's on Friday so just in a couple days."
'Friday huh? well that means the sooner it is the sooner it will be over and I can go back to my normal single life,' thought Raven. But oh how wrong she was...
---------------------------------------------Friday early afternoon----------------------------------------------------------------
It was about 3 p.m. and she had just gotten off the phone with Star and she had explained the details of the date: he picks her up at 5 and they hit a movie, after go to dinner at a nice resturant with reservations curtisy of Robin then head to Raven's house for talking and such. Raven had groaned at the last part of the plan but decided not to say anything.
So as 4:15 rolled around she got ready for her date. She wanted to go in a black t-shirt, jeans, and black combat boots but that wouldn't be good for the resturant. She picked out a dark green knee-length skirt, the black combat boots anyway, and a t-shirt that said battitude on it.
At 5 on the dot her door bell rang and she opened it to find a suprise. A nervous looking man wearing nicer jeans, dress shoes and a shirt that said 'I'm strange maybe even crazy but at least there's never a dull moment.'
"So you must be Raven," he commented nervously.
"No, I'm actually Star in disguise," spat Raven not liking when people state the obvious.
"I can see your still as scarcastic as you were back in highschool," said Garfield smiling. A light blush rose to the cheek of both persons.
"Well...shall we ?" he offered sweeping his hands towards the outside.
Raven gave a tiny smile and said, "Yes we shall."
