Sadly, I own nothing at all got to do with That's So Raven… so this story is just a sad excuse for wishing I did.

By the way, I've decided that I'm gonna do the whole story in Rae's POV, (well.. unless I change my mind lol) so yehh and things in italics are Raven's thoughts.

FEMSLASH, don't like, then disappear, and we shall both pretend that we didn't see you click on my story..

Have fun.

Chapter 2. Alive with her

Chelsea and I were sitting up in my room getting the things for her sleeping over ready. Dad was at the Chill Grill for some themed dinner thing, and Mum and Cory were there helping. Well, actually… I highly doubt Cory is helping. More like destroying something.

'So Rae, you said you needed to tell me something?' Chelsea said to me while propping herself up opposite me on my bed.

'Uhmm… yehh girl, do you know that sitting like that is bad for your back?'

Chelsea threw me one of those 'I'm-not-buying-it-so-get-to-the-chase' looks.

Giving in to Chelsea because of the look she was giving me was only half the reason why I started to tell her. The other? Because I need to tell her, I can't hold back any more. I can no longer contain myself with just me knowing. And also the fact I could smell Chelsea's strawberry shampoo was drawing me closer to her. Making me lust for her more.

'Uhmm… you have to promise you won't hate me?' I immediately regretted starting this, immediately regretted to get her to sleep over.

Chelsea nodded and added in a little, 'mmhmmm.'

'Well, I…I after… well I'm not quite sure when, but ahhhh… I kinda, sorta…' just say it raven Baxter. You never know. Chances are, you'll lose a friend, chances are you won't. Now don't be a fucking coward and back out now.

'ChelsIkindasortalikeyou!' I breathed a sign of relief, finally telling my crush how I've been feeling for her.

'Uh Rae, sorry, you're gonna have to repeat that for me. I didn't get what came after 'Chels,'' Chelsea looked at me waiting for the answer.

Ahhh what the heck! Knowing that Chelsea, her not-to-quick bestie would pick it up.

'Chelsea Daniels, I love you.'

I've never felt more of an awkward silence before. The atmosphere became really tense, and Chelsea looked like she was searching for words to say.

'Look girl, I'm so sorry. You can leave if you want. I don't care. Just, just we're still friends aren't we?' I couldn't help but see a small smile inch onto her face. And before I even had the chance to draw my next breath, Chelsea did something that I will always remember.

She kissed me!

'Rae, we are definitely still friends.' Chelsea got up and walked around the side of my bed so she could get closer to me. She sat on my lap facing me, kind of straddling me I guess.

I looked up at her, her auburn locks falling neatly around her shoulders, her lips so full and pink, those lips that I've been dreaming about forever. Dreaming about kissing, dreaming about brushing mine against hers, dreaming about sending shivers up her spine…

'Rae,' Chelsea looked into my eyes, 'how long have you felt this?'

'This what?' Nice Raven! Very nice, you break the comfortable silence with, 'this what?' Good one, genius.

'These things… feelings for me?'

'Well… I don't even know for myself Chels; I just woke up one day and started noticing you. Noticing the way you giggle at all the silly things we do together, all the effort you put into with helping animals and the environment, and all those things you care for. I didn't just see you as 'Chels, my bestest friend in the whole universe,' but I saw you as, 'Chels, the most gorgeous person alive, the only person that keeps me breathing.'

'Wow Rae, that was… I'm sorry, all that I can say, is that all those times you have protected and stood up for me, and those times that you have done things just to help me… I dunno… but it just seems like every time you touch me, I have this…this feeling of, love and affection that I couldn't control. You don't know how many times I have tried to scream out in frustration at not being able to-'

I cut her off by putting a finger to her lips. 'But it's ok now babe, alright?'

Chelsea looked like she was having a battle with her mind, as if she was trying to figure things out. There seemed to be nothing she could do to stop her next move. She grabbed my finger that was still against her lips and kissed it, then she guided it down to the waistband of her pants, and tucked me hand there. She was controlling, almost like she had planned everything out from the beginning. I manoeuvred so that I was lying down on the bed with Chels on top of me. She lunged in, and we shared a deep, passionate kiss. I parted my lips slightly, Chelsea took this as an open invitation, and drove her tongue in, and I soon returned the favour.

Chelsea and I broke apart, knowing that we need and little bugger of a thing called air. She was now lying next to me and we were cuddling, just cuddling. She doesn't know how much she means to me.

'Rae?' My best friend whispered to me

'Yehh Chels?' I replied, looking into her eyes, which were intensely burning mine.

'You've made me feel alive again.'

Well… that's the end of that chapter. I seriously have no idea where I'm going with this lol. Hrmm… I'll have to do some serious thinking tonight. I'm on summer holidays, so I have A LOT of thinking time alone lol.

Luv xox
