Ha! I'm finally catching up!

December 21

6:00, Tower

Raven woke up, knowing that her dream had happened once again. She tried to ignore it. There was no point in trying to remember things that she can't remember. Raven sighed and got out of bed. She hesitated in going downstairs, for fear of falling asleep again. She settled on just sitting in her room, reading her new Stephen King novel, Insomnia (A/N I love that book!).

Raven was at the part when Doc #3 kills Rosalie when she started getting freaked out. After all, Stephen King was scary, and images of Doc #3 filled her mind. She got up quickly and left her room. She needed to be in the company of someone, anyone. Without thinking, she found herself in front of Gar's door, her hand raised to knock.

(What am I doing here? I should be going to Kori, not Gar!)

But Raven could not move. Fear petrified every pore of her body, and she didn't have enough courage to go all the way to Kori's room. She paused for only a moment, then knocked on the door.

7:00, Tower

Gar rolled over in his sleep. There was an intermittent pounding in his head, and it wouldn't stop. Finally he got up and opened the door.

"What?" he asked, rubbing his eyes. His eyes widened when he saw who it was.

Raven.

She looked beautiful, in a black tang top and jeans. Gar found his eyes taking in every pore of her body, and Raven doing the same to him. He suddenly felt self-conscious, aware that he was wearing a pair of old jeans and no shirt.

Then Raven spoke and the moment was gone.

"I- I think I left something in this room," she said. Gar moved over so that she could come in. Raven walked around the room, nervous.

"What's wrong?" asked Gar, concerned.

"Nothing, nothing," said Raven, trying to suppress the urge to wring her hands. It was weird how much a simple book could scare her...

(But was it the book? Or was it just the urge to see... him?)

(Of course it was the book!)

"Are you sure? You look... scared." Gar moved closer to Raven. He put his hand on her head. "Are you coming down with something?"

"It's nothing," said Raven sharply, swatting his hand away. It was then they both realized how close they were to each other. Gar's body was barely an inch away from Raven's, and his face was even closer. Raven had the urge to kiss him, and she almost did it, but then her senses came back to her, and she quickly moved away from him.

(I did not want to kiss him! It was just the cold!)

(Was it, Raven? Was it?)

(Yes! It was!)

But her voice sounded feeble even in her mind.

"I suppose I left it somewhere else," said Raven, tears threatening to overflow. She hurried out of the room.

"Raven!" came Gar's voice, but Raven ran to her room, afraid of letting him see the tears, yet not afraid to cry.
