More Then I Should

Panic …

The red lights, the loud blaring alarms the pounding of her heart, the heat running through her chilled body. She honestly felt like she was running a fever. What happened? What did she do? What did he do? How could he? What possessed him? Why? Why? Why! Why did he do it? It made no sense! She thought she was being the coldest, the hardest, bitchiest bitch around to chase him away! How could this have happened? It was horrible, simply mortifying!

Worse still?

Embarrassing … the kiss wasn't as bad as Raven expected, but what was eating at her was how she ran! Like a whinny little baby! She didn't stand there, she didn't take it coolly … no, she had to run! She had to pushing him away, tell him it was her first kiss, and runaway to the bathroom and locked herself in, staring angrily at the mirror, You idiot! How could you? What did you do! You made it a whole lot worse! Now he'll never leave! How could you have done this you stupid, stupid, stupid idiot! I should have killed him, I should have, I know I should have back at the alleyway, but no! You just had to be weak and let him hold you and make you feel like you were his world … Angel … why? When I asked you, demanded for you to go away a thousand times over … why do you keep coming back?

He didn't answer her … of course he didn't; she was locked in Herald's upstairs bathroom, glaring at her reflection with water dripping down her face after she splashed cold water over it to get the heat in her body go down. It wasn't working. She was still embarrassed, still upset, still angry … but not at Angel … why? Shouldn't she be? He kissed her – touched her – without consent, then went on acting as if it was no big deal! Raven sighed and turned away from her reflection, wrapping her arms around herself to give what little comfort she felt like she needed.

Raven leaned on the sink and stared at the white bathroom wall with a sad look, Of course it was no big deal to him, moron. He's Angel Xavier … bad boy from the streets; you think you'll be his first and only? Idiot! Stop it! Stop this! It was only a stupid kiss, not like we're going to get married the next fucking day. Just go out there and pretend like it never happened … yeah … you can do that … you've always done it … so why am I still in this fucking bathroom?

Because she was scared to face him – Angel, to face Rorek after their little incident back when he was teasing her about thinking of someone else. Raven's heated blush was coming back and she rubbed her face, Oh god … why did I even think that? I'm such a damn schoolgirl! Get the fuck over it Raven! Shaking her head and glaring at the ground she huffed and bit on her lower lip … No problem, no problem … you can do this … you can … fixing herself up a bit more, Raven steeled her face and sighed after taking a deep breath then wiped her face of the water.

Shakily she reached for the handle and listened to it click as she twisted and it unlocked itself to allow her out onto the hall. Glancing to her right, Raven felt her heart suddenly hit her throat as it jumped out of its arteries. Angel … he was leaning against the doorframe just down the end of the hall, looking into the room she was sure Rorek was sleeping in. Yet he was talking … talking to who she wondered, but she wasn't that eager to find out, because having to go find out meant coming into speaking contact with Angel.

Raven … was not psyched about that. Keeping her head, the strong young businesswoman strolled down the hall towards the room, towards Rorek, trying not to think of Angel, praying that he wouldn't look up. The gods, unfortunately, decided it was her turn to ignore. Because just as she got within a few more steps of the room Angel looked to his left … to her, and smiled. Raven, was stopped n her tracks.

Angel gestured to whomever he was talking to hold on as he walked quietly to her, stuffing his hands in his pocket, Raven took a step back glaring suspiciously at him she wasn't going to take any chances this time. He wasn't going to get the better of her, Angel pulled his hands out of his pocket and held them up chuckling quietly so to not alarm the person in the room who he was talking to, "Take it easy Raven, I'm not going to do anything, I swear."

Raven's glare darkened, "Right, and I'm supposed to believe you why?"

"Because I'm a nice guy …" Angel saw the skeptical – sarcastic – look on her face and chuckled, "once you get to know me is all. Come on Raven, you can't be mad at me over a stupid little kiss." The words slipped, and Angel slapped a hand over his mouth, suddenly frightened that he had said the wrong thing, "Uh … wait, I didn't mean it like that … I – uh – shit! Um …"

"I get it," Raven nodded, Angel smiled and found himself shuffling where he stood, Raven looked around him to the room and saw the same black-haired and red streaked girl from yesterday. She gasped shyly when she had been caught staring and snuck back into the room. Angel turned to notice her as well and shook his head.

"Some people just don't know how to keep to their own damn business."

Raven shrugged, "You'll get use to it."

Around him she stepped, but before she could go any further she stilled when Angel weaved his fingers around hers and held her hand. Back still to him, Raven gulped hard and tried desperately to stop her heart from beating so hard and fast. His hand was around hers and he was pulling her back to him gently, wanting her to turn and face him, Raven was afraid to. She didn't want a repeat of what happened at the stairs … or did she?

She couldn't quite figure what she wanted or what she thought was right or wrong, it was all too much to process. So she blamed it on her god-programming-hard-drive, which didn't allow for her to think straight, because she found herself turning around to face him. His cute boyish face that often looked mature when he was serious enough to look at a situation, his curious hazel eyes that reminded her of a child sticking his nose into so much trouble then later tearing over to try and win over her heart. Then his messy puffy hair that just didn't seen to learn how to keep still … just like his personality.

Raven gritted her teeth; Stop it! Pulling her hand from his she walked away from him to Rorek's room, trying to forget it all. Only a few steps and she was in, away from Angel to be with Rorek and Argent. Raven expected Angel to be coming into the room after her … but after a few seconds, it was evident that he wasn't coming. Glad, she turned her attention to Rorek who was sitting up on the bed and grinning at her teasingly, "Oh, so I guess I was right last night. You were thinking of someone else. Didn't expect it to be the troublemaker of the Xavier family though."

Raven glared and tapped him hard on his chest, he winced and whined in pain, Argent on the side chuckled trying to stifle a laugh while Raven just sneered, "Shut it, Angel has nothing to … wait a sec, what the hell gave you any idea that this as anything to do with Angel?"

Rorek winced and glared at Raven for the unnecessary pain, however smirked when as he ignored it and snickered, "I never said Angel in particular, I said "Xavier family" you don't know if Angel has a brother."

Raven shot Rorek a dry-oh-please-knock-the-bullshit-off look and Rorek shrugged, "Whatever, but I'm fine if you're coming to check on me … Argent's been nice enough to watch over me."

Argent blushed and looked down when Raven raised a brow to give the girl a strange look, then shrugged herself and nodded, "Right, Argent … you go to our school right?"

She shook her head, "Use to, but my parents came into a bit of money and I was shipped off to some fancy-shamancy privet academy."

"Oh? Let me guess Sacred Hearts Academy for girls?"

Argent cringed, "Yeah … that school sucks! Especially since – hey you know a girl by the name of Kitten Moth? Yeah she goes there to."

Even more interested, both Rorek and Raven glanced at one another and Raven raised a brow, "Really? I was wondering why she hasn't been coming to school lately."

"Yeah, same as me her father came into money and now goes to Sacred Hearts and she thinks she owns the place now. It's so irritating the way she struts about with her skirt hiked up and blouse unbuttoned low." Argent sneered just at the mere thought of Sacred Hearts being ruled by Kitten Moth and Raven scoffed.

"She's a bitch, can't escape them," Rorek nudged Raven and glared at her for manners, and Raven sneered, "What? It's true."

"Never mind about her already," Rorek rolled his eyes and sighed, laying back on the bed he closed his eyes, "I'm tired, you girls woke me up too early, now leave me be."

Raven snickered, "Yes your majesty, as you wish."

Argent giggled and patted Rorek on the shoulder careful of his pain, "Remember to take the pain killers Herald gave you, it'll help –"

"I know Argent," Rorek sighed again, "I was shot, not turned into a child."

"Just reminding you is all."

"Unnecessary."

"Whatever … see ya."

"Yeah."

With that Argent closed the door and Raven stood with a teasing smirk, "You really like him don't you?"

Startled by the sudden question Argent jerked her head back, "Huh? Uh … wha – Rorek? Me? Li-like him? Much? Uh … what are you talking about?"

Raven shook her head and waved her hand, "Forget about it, now you say you're going to Sacred Hearts … right?"

Argent nodded her head, "Yeah … why do you ask again?"

"Curious, do you think I could borrow a set of your uniform? I'll return it safe and unharmed, I promise."

"Borrow?" Argent glared suspiciously at Raven, "Are you planning to sneak into my school? Why?"

"Just some unfinished business is all, so can I borrow it or what?"

Skeptical Argent shook her head and looked off to the side, glancing at Raven the thought that she would want to sneak into a privet Academy was odd. Why would she do such a thing? Though … it couldn't hurt, if she was Rorek's friend, then why would there be anything to fear or distrust about her? After all, out of Rorek's mouth he said that she was a good girl, so … "Um … I guess … but just don't tear it or anything. I only have three sets and one of them is for PE. Got it?"

Raven smiled thankfully, "Got it."

"So you want one now? Because it's in my pack, had to sneak away from the bus stop to come here."

"Right, give it to me now, sooner the better you know."

"Okay. It's down stairs, let's go."

Raven allowed for Argent to lead the way, down the stairs and towards the living room Raven looked around and narrowed her brows when she didn't see Angel anywhere in sight. Not even with Malchior who was bored enough to flip through channels with a completely dazed expression. Raven chuckled and ran a hand through his hair to try and knock him out before he started to drool. It worked and he glared up at his sister, swatting at her leg, he winced when his shoulder protested to the sudden jerk of his body.

Smirking, Raven showed her tongue and Malchior flipped her off, Argent chuckled at the two's antics as Malchior weakly threw a pillow that Raven who easily dodged. Waiting as Argent rummaged through her bag and snatched up her full uniform Malchior growled, "Why the hell are you down here?"

"Checking out Argent's uniform," Raven shrugged, picking up the pillow and took the uniform from Argent. Walking passed Malchior she threw the pillow to the couch beside him, "She's going to Sacred Hearts and I was just curious about their school, didn't I say I wanted to go there once?"

Malchior raised a brow, Raven … wearing a uniform and going to an Academy? What the hell? She hate those things … about to open his mouth about it Argent took the top uniform and held it up to Raven and frowned, "I don't know Raven … it seems kinda small … sure you'll fit it?"

Raven sneered and snatched the uniform back, "Of course I'll fit it. I'll prove it and try it on. So wait right there."

"Whatever …" Argent sighed and plopped onto the couch yelping when she sat on something hard she got back up and glared at the remote that Malchior tossed. Giving it back to him – actually he more kind of snatched it from her – and waiting for Malchior to get bored of flipping through the channels. Argent had to deal with the two second shows for the moment Raven was gone.

Where's Herald's down stairs bathroom again? Oh … right there … Raven pushed the door open and flipped the lights on, going in she put the cloths on the sink and shut the door. Though locking it fled her thoughts as her cell phone dropped to the ground, "Shit," bending over to pick it up Raven huffed when it wasn't badly damaged and put it in the sink.

With that she looked at the mirror and sighed then began to undress.

Out in the yard, Herald and Angel crouched on the ground staring at the neighbor's ruthless pit bull. Angel shuttered and stood up as the thing snarled and practically chocked itself trying to rush the fence, "Creepy man, a thief's natural enemy … a freakin' guard dog. You do it, it's your block and your pack."

Herald stood up and glared at Angel, "Me? Me get it? Man you were the one who threw it because you couldn't handle a little joke. Jackass."

Offended, Angel glared, "I'm the jackass? Me? You're little idea of a joke wasn't funny man!"

"Coward." Herald snickered, and Angel scoffed.

"Coward huh? Then why don't you jump the fence and grab your bag."

Herald raised a brow, "You want me to get it? Man, if I get that thing than for sure I'll show the picture I took of you guys together to Malchior and you're ass is grass, that guy won't let anyone with Raven. Anyone but Rorek and he's already off the record."

Trapped … ambushed … Angel groaned and growled and pouted like a child. This was so un-freakin'-believable! It was unfair, Shit man, I shouldn't have done it in the stairs, let alone in Herald's house. Stupid! God, ain't I supposed to be the one with the blackmailing job? Angel shook his head and sneered, "Fine then, you want to be that way. See ya when I get back, asshole."

"Dead man walking," Herald smirked as Angel cracked his neck and grabbed the edge of the fence, biting on his lip he jumped the fence and ran for the bag. Snatching it up just as the dog nipped at his heels, Angel ran like the devil himself was after him and jumped the fence. Though it wasn't over. Herald gasped, "Oh shit! Angel! Run! The chain snapped!"

Indeed it did.

Angel, stupid enough to look back, gasped, "Fuck!" the dog made a clean jump and the heavy pound muscled dog landed right on him, its claws scrapped at has arm and his drooling – nearly forming mouth growled low into his face. Angel cringed and jerked his arm back, "Get off me you fucking dumb-ass dog!" balling a hand into a fist he punched hard to the creatures mouth and cringed when he felt its teeth cut deep into his hand.

The dog yelped and jumped off the human, Angel scrambled to his feet and ran to the house with Herald, bag in hand the two rushed the door, opened it, and slammed it shut gasping for air. Angel's hand shaking due to the dogs mouth, he looked at it and gritted his teeth then glared at Herald, "Next time you want to play fucking jokes, don't mess with me. Jerk-wad."

"What happened?" Argent rushed into the kitchen where the back door was to the yard and Angel shook his head, walking passed her with the pack still in hand. Angel made his way to the down stairs bathroom.

"It was nothing. Just the neighbor's dog."

Herald nodded in agreement, relaxing a bit and getting off the door, but jumped from it when it was slammed and scrapped. The pit outside snarling and trying to break the door down, Argent and Angel gave it a look while Herald blinked, all three thinking the same thing, "What the fuck are they feeding that thing?"

"What's going on?" Raven peeked into the room; Angel being the closets turned to inform her of the dog, but suddenly found his voice caught when he saw what she was wearing. A short – too short skirt, it looked like she could barely fit it, the same went for the black long sleeved button up collared blouse top. A red silk business tie around her neck with the crest of a school at the bottom, Angel shook his head when he realized he had been staring.

"Whoa … where the hell do you think you're going?"

"To school," Raven answered dryly walking passed him and to Argent who turned around and smiled.

"Wow, it looks good on you. A bit short and tight here and there, but I think it'll do."

Raven sneered, "How can you even think of wearing these shitty things, their so … so … so …"

"Revealing," a voice from behind startled the lot of them, but Herald still gave the door a nervous look, as if expecting the pit bull to come bursting through at any moment. Malchior glared at the outfit, and Angel made sure to look at anything else but Raven or Malchior, yet not staring at Raven was hard. She did look so good at the moment, "Raven, what the hell's wrong with you?"

"Nothing," she argued, "nothing but the thought of you two getting hurt because of me. Rorek's right, I'm sick of Trigon and I want out! If he's already aiming to even kill us Malchior then fuck him, he thinks he's god? I'll show him hell!"

"In a skirt and a tie?" Malchior raised a brow and shot his sister a dry look.

Raven gave him one of her own, "You know what I mean, Kitten goes to that school and I'll be damned if that bitch thinks I'm through with her. Look everything up with Rorek, Malchior, because tomorrow I'm going to Sacred Hearts."

"Alone?"

"Who else will go with me?"

"Argent, she goes to the school," Malchior looked to the girl who gave him a pensive look.

"Ooo, I don't know Malchior, I gotta go to classes tomorrow, because if I'm off again, the teachers will get suspicious and I'm a dead duck with my father. Get it?"

Malchior cursed, "Shit, Raven you can't do this alone, you're entering Slade territory!"

"I'll be fine Malchior," Raven sighed, "I really will be, now go back to the couch, you're not supposed to be up."

"Not supposed to be up my ass Raven," Malchior sneered, but turned and walked to the couch anyway. Leaving Raven to shake her head and put hands on her hips, glancing over her shoulder to see Angel looking her up and down, Raven glared.

"See something that bother's you, Angel?"

"Huh?" knocked out of his "thoughts" Angel chuckled and shrugged, trying to seem as innocent as possible, "Oh, uh, nah, I was just … I just thought I saw … uh …"

"Yeah right man," Herald snickered, "give it a rest already. I'm gonna go up and check on Rorek, Argent, you wanna come with?"

"Sure." smirking herself she winked at Angel who sneered and rolled his eyes off to the side. Raven shook her head and headed to the bathroom, but stopped when she noticed blood dripped to the floor. Knowing it wasn't hers; she turned to Angel and noticed his hand … it was cut.

"You planning on getting that checked?" she asked sarcastically and Angel looked down at his hand, wincing the pain was almost forgotten and he stupidly grinned. Stuttering, Raven shook her head again and reached to his shoulder, grabbing his shirt and dragging him to the bathroom she thought to herself, Why the hell do I put up with you?

Practically throwing him into the room, Angel tripped and leaned on the sink as Raven came in and closed the door. Grabbing his fist and turning on the water, Angel held his breath as she ran his cut through it to wash out the bacteria and such he noticed that she was purposely being rough about it. However he found it more amusing then annoying, she just looked like being with him was killing her. Before he knew it she was already bandaging him up and nodding to herself in satisfaction, "There … I'm sure you deserved whatever it was that dog did to you. So get out, I got to change."

She opened the door a crack to allow for Angel to get out, but from behind Angel shot a hand over her and slammed it shut. Startled, Raven turned around and leaned up against the door when Angel leaned down to her, grinning, "You shy pretty bird?"

Oh-no … not again! Her heart raced, her cheeks flushed and her senses were all clouded with nothing but him. The fact that they were in a bathroom didn't help. No escape room, echoing walls that allowed for her to only hear his voice and their breathing. His scent filtered into her nose an she could have swore her sense of touch had become stronger because only a few inches apart and she could already feel him. Yet Raven refused to show he was affecting her the way he was … maybe not fully, but all the same, "Shy? Who said I was shy? Back off Angel, that kiss on the stairs was nothing and I won't let it happen again."

Gods, who the hell was she kidding? Why bother lie to her self? Because that mocking look on Angel's face was irritating her, that's why. He could be such an arrogant punk at many times!

"Oh yeah?" Angel challenged, his bangs practically shading over his eyes so only she could see him as a stand feel in front of his right eye when he came even closer. Their lips barely centimeters a part and his grin still plastered as he chuckled, "what are you gonna do? Clap me in iron?"

Raven sneered, Cocky, arrogant, unbelievable … silencing her own thoughts Raven growled, "How bout I just fill you with led."

"Would make sense considering you just love to point a gun at me. Yet you always seem to miss the trigger." Angel couldn't help him self, she was just so cute when she was angry.

Raven glared, and pushed herself closer to him, but made sure not to come to close so to touch him in anyway, which was a hard task, "Don't tempted me."

Angel chuckled, "Shouldn't I be the one to say that?"

Distracted Raven raised a brow, "Wha – "

Muffled, and silenced, Raven gasped when Angel stole another kiss, however this time he was a bit more aggressive. Trying to pull away, but forgetting she was up against the door and pushed up on to it. It only helped Angel even further as he snaked his arms around her and made sure she had nowhere to go as he stealthily slithered his tongue into her mouth. Nearly destroy the moment with laughter when he heard her squeak in fright. She was such a naïve girl when it came to this kind of thing. Enticing her into a little game.

Raven shot her hands up to his shoulders to try and push him off, but he wasn't going to give up so easily. Angel always got his way, always, and right now Raven was just discovering just how much force he'd go through to get it. She moaned, but it was only in desperation to get him off … not like Angel knew that! Hell Raven herself was kind of skeptical about her own thoughts at the moment. Wasn't she supposed to try and get him off her? Why weren't her hands cooperating with her anymore?

Whatever was going on Raven found that she just couldn't – or was it wouldn't? – budge to try and push him away any longer. In fact … the hands that were on his shoulders gripped and pulled him flushed to her body. Joining in on the game he was calling her to play, it was hard to listen to any of her mind commands telling her to push him away.

Her body committed treason.

It wasn't obeying everything she was trying to convincer herself to do to save her logic thought.

Nope, she lost … to Angel and to herself …

Raven hissed when his hands bravely ventured her body and felt up all her curves, wondering if he could feel her skin was heated because she felt like she was on fire. A light headed feeling began to form at the head and Raven faintly wondered if this was how it felt like to be on cloud nine. Yet pulled away to discover it was only the lack of oxygen that got to her.

Angel kissed her once, then twice, and on the third time his grin returned. Pressing his forehead to hers he chuckled, "So I take it I don't have to leave you alone anymore."

"Cheater," Raven gasped, panting softly for air trying to control her breathing she glared at Angel, yet with a strange glint of amusement in her eyes.

Confused momentarily, Angel tilted his head and rested his hands on her sides, "How did I cheat?"

Raven grabbed onto his collar and pulled him down to her growling, "You're a thief, you stole everything of me."

He smiled and kissed her again, "Everything? No … I don't think so, not everything. I feel I have forgotten something else to make my collection complete."

"What's that?"

"Your heart." Angel leaned to capture another kiss, but Raven rolled her eyes and pushed him way. Opening the door and moving so she was outside she made a gesture for Angel to get out. Put out, Angel pouted and went out anyway, "Aw, and it was just getting cozy in there."

"It's a bathroom," Raven shot him a dry look and went back in, stopping to turn and smile softly at him, "and you already stole it Angel … a long time ago."

Intrigued, Angel tilted his head and raised an amused brow. Raven reframed from laughing and closed the door to change out of the uniform she was wearing. Unaware of the victory dance Angel was performing outside and receiving odd stares from Argent who had come back down from Rorek's room to get a glass of water. The Sacred Hearts attendee half expected Angel to fly with the overly happy look on his face. He looked like he had just won the lottery. Shrugging, Argent walked on by, Weird.
