Reviews:
Child of a Pineapple – Thanks! I'm glad you like it. I know BB isn't green, but he's supposed to be a normal person, and normal people aren't… well, they aren't green. They just aren't.
WeaselChick – Yes, She does have a weird family life. And I am also glad that Murray made him shut up, bcuz he's not a good singer in my mind either… but it is a good song. But I may have him singing more… not sure yet.
Glean-Glean – Yes, he is. Most definitely (probably cuz I'm not to fond of him as a character on the show). I am a complete, all the way BBXRae fan. I really don't like RobXRae. At all. And thanks!
Blaze83 – Yes, I don't like bbXterra either… and I'm gonna make Tara suffer (that's why I gave her two evil younger twin sisters… muhaha). And yes, I think Terra and Robin is an interesting couple as well… that's why I like it. OH NO! Not the Legally Blonde Movies! I'm cowering in my brother's shoes! HELP! ANYTHING BUT THAT!
Hey guys, thanks for all of the great reviews! I really appreciate them! I like when people come up with ways for me to improve! Just, thanks to everyone who has reviewed!
And vuala! The new chapter!
The Coffee Shop – Chapter 8
Like a gift…
Raven was standing on the edge of a cliff. She looked down at the speeding, rocky rapids far below. Suddenly something pushed her over the edge. She started to fall. Falling, falling to her doom. She felt a hand grab her hand. She looked up. It was Richard. He looked into her eyes and smiled. He let go. Again, she was tumbling through the air. She could see the water below her, full of rocks. She closed her eyes and waited for the end, but it didn't come. She felt something under her back, and she was being pushed up into the sky again. She opened her eyes, only to see that she was on the other side of the cliff. When she looked in the sky, she saw a green eagle flying off into the distance.
Raven opened her eyes, only to see the dark interior of her bedroom.
Then, it was only a dream? She thought. But what did it mean?
Slowly, she rolled over and fell back asleep.

"Okay, all! Time to close up shop! And remember no work all weekend! Have a good 4th of July!" Murray yelled, as another hard day of work ended.
"See ya on Monday!" Gar yelled to Tara, as she got into her yellow punch buggy.
"Yeah, see ya!" Gar climbed into the jeep.
"Bye Raven," called Kori and Richard, simultaneously climbing onto his motorcycle/into her convertible.
"Bye," Raven took off running in the direction of home.
Arriving at home, Raven could tell that her mom was out. She walked over to the kitchen table. There was a note from her mom.
Raven,
I'm out job-hunting. I'll try to be back home before dark. I left a little money I the table in case you want to go out for Chinese while I'm gone. Have a good night! Love you bunches,
Mom
"Well," said Raven, "Looks like mom is most definitely out of her depression stage…" she glanced disgustedly at the words "Love you bunches". She picked up the money. "And since I ate at lunch, maybe I can use the money to buy that new Sister Hazel (a/n: I love that band) CD that came out recently…". She quickly changed out of her sweaty work clothes, took a quick shower, and put on a pair of baggy jeans (that had a slight tint of purple to them), and studded belt, a purple camisole and a pair of too-big purple and black sneakers.
She walked out of the appartment while slipping the money into her pocket. Slowly, she headed down the road in the direction of the nearby Target.
When she got there, she headed straight for the CDs.
She scanned down the aisles looking for the letter S. She wasn't paying any attention to what was in front of her.
She tripped on a loose tile that people had been avoiding all day. She felt herself falling. She closed her eyes, bracing herself for the impact of the fall, but didn't feel it.
Opening her eyes, she saw that she was staring directly into the face of none other than Gar Logan. She had a look of shock on her face, and he smiled, sheepishly. Logically, she figured that what had happened was that he was standing in front of her, doing the same thing she was and not paying attention, and she had tripped, and he had been right in front of her to catch her… that would also explain why his hands had landed on her butt. Obviously he hadn't done it on purpose. Right?
Quickly, she stood back up and recovered from the sudden shock.
"Um… Hi," He said.
"Thanks for catching me," she replied.
"No problem," he said. "So, what are you looking for?"
"The new Sister Hazel CD, Lift."
"Really? So am I."
"Do you know where it is?"
"Well, here's Sister Hazel but I don't see any copies. Maybe they put it in the new release section."
Together, they walked over to the new release section and found it. They each picked up a copy, and walked to the cash register to buy it.
He took the CD out of her hands and put it of the conveyor belt.
"What are you doing?" She asked him, confusedly.
"I'm gonna pay for your CD. Like a gift…"
Her face remained un-changed.
"Don't tell me you've never gotten a gift," he said, hopelessly.
He face stayed the same again, only this time, she raised one eyebrow.
"Just take it," he said, handing it to her as they walked out of the store.
"Thanks… I think" she said, un-surely.
"You're welcome. Nice running into you… I think." He said, even more un-surely.
Please review! Hope you all liked it! Expect more soon!
