Chapter 5: A Forgotten Date
Three long beautiful relationship filled double date months later Raven, Chelsea and Eddie have finally made it up to a 3 days till graduation. All they had to do before that is take their final exit exams. It's the third period of the day and lunch was through the midpoint of class. Oh, and there's a very special anniversary coming up. Eddie is at his locker diggin' for his folders. And then is joined by Raven and Chelsea, as he closes his locker door.

"Hi Eddie." Raven says, as she approaches him and she gives him a grate big o' kiss and she grabs a hold of his hand. Eddie starts. "Man I can not wait to graduate from here. We will be legal yall. Oh, I got that basketball scholarship too. So I 'm all set and ready to go."

"Oh did I tell you two that I got that half scholarship to Phoenix University. I still gotta find a job to pay off the other half. It's better than nothing. I cannot wait." Chelsea adds.

"Well how did you get the scholarship Chels?" Raven says.

"I wrote a 15 page essay on why you shouldn't eat meat. And here's a couple reasons why..."

"That's okay. We don't wanna know." Eddie, cuts her off. Raven and Eddie look at Chelsea oddly.

"That's very strange." Raven starts. "Oh yeah... This morning Donna Cabonna called me to tell me that she is paying my way through fashion school. All I have to do is work for her, designing more designs. I've been doing such a good job as an intern. And an even better part is that she is writing my letter of recommendation. I can not wait."

"We are all set!" Eddie says very excited.

"I gotta go meet Danny at his history class. I'll catch you two love birds later." Chelsea says. Chelsea leaves very happy and giggly.
She turns around and winks at Eddie and he winks back with a thumbs up. Raven spots Eddie givin' Chelsea the thumbs up. But she doesn't worry about it. And shrugs it off as if it never happened.

"Your best friend is too happy for me. "Eddie says as Raven leans in for a kiss. She grabs a hold of his hands and she smiles at him.

"So Eddie do you have anything for me today?" As if she didn't already know.

"No. I don't... think so." With a confused look on his face. Now walkin' down the hallway holding only one of each others hands.

"Boy stop playin'. I know you know what I'm talking about."

"Playing what? What are you talking about? Let's go before we're late for our Spanish finals."

Raven is now confused and doesn't even know what to think.

"Could my vision been wrong." She says to herself

Eddie pulls her to the classroom. Bell rings. They both sit in a hurry in Senorita Rodriguez's class, to take their Spanish exams. Eddie sits right in front of Raven. Senorita Rodriguez stands up in front of the class holding a stack of exams waiting for the class to calm down. The exam consists of about 4 pages, and 11 Spanish questions on each page.

"Okay class, settle down." Senorita Rodriguez says with her Spanish accent. "Everyone pull out un lapiz o una pluma."

Everyone in class is really confused and don't even know what she means. Only a few people knew what she was talking about including Eddie.

"It means pencil or pen. Ai yi Ai." Senorita Rodriguez, says in slight disappointment. "You have 30 minutes to finish the first half of your exams. Then you go off to lunch. You come back and you finish the second half after lunch. So good luck class."

"I am so ready for this exam Senorita Rodriguez!" Eddie says in much excitement.

SR smiles and says. "That's good for you Edwardo."

Senorita Rodriguez passes out the exams. Raven barely pays attention to her exam, almost not getting the first part done on time. All she could think about is Eddie not remembering their 3 month anniversary. Test taking time is about over, and Eddie was one of the first students to finish the test exam.

"Okay class. Pencils and pens down. Rip off the first half of your exams, and pass them up to the front of the class please. And now you can go and take your descanso para el almuerzo." Senorita Rodriguez explains and then picks up the tests. Everyone now has a confused faces once again about what she said in Spanish. "Lunch break. Do you kids even study anymore? "

Everyone gets up and leaves for lunch. Eddie quickly rushes off down the hallway to meet Chelsea not even enough time for Raven to speak to him. Raven enters the Cafeteria to see Eddie and Chelsea standing beside each other. Raven looks from a distance. Eddie suddenly gives Chelsea a big hug, then grabs her hand. With Chelsea smiling back at him. They both grab yellow lunch trays and they both grab food from the lunch line and sit down together and start eating. Raven again shrugs it off and acts like nothing happened once again. She grabs a tray and cuts ahead of the line, grabs her food. Then she goes and joins them. Eddie and Chelsea quickly stop talking.

"Hey you guys." Raven says with a fake smile.

"Hey Raven!" Chelsea says.

"Hey Rae." Eddie adds.

"So, what's up with you two?" As she sits down in between the two of them. "Nothin'" They both say in unison.

"So do you guys wanna hang out at my place after school?" Raven says desperately.

"I can't. I have to go and pick up something very important today." Eddie explains.

"I can't either. I have to meet my Aunt DeDe." Chelsea adds.

"Oh, okay then." Raven says becoming even more bum out, about today. "I guess I'll be by myself then."

Lunch was over and it was time to get back to Spanish class to finish the other half of the exam. Eddie and Chelsea get up an leave not even realizing that they forgot about Raven, she didn't even touch her food. Raven enters the class doesn't even pay attention to Eddie, moving to a seat that is on the other part of the class room.

"Okay class. Now that your tummies are filled, you can now start the second half of your exams. Good luck" Senorita Rodriguez explains.

Raven starts her test. She doesn't even look for the correct answers. Raven just circles random answers and slams her pencil down, loud enough for everyone to hear and to turn and look at her. Even Eddie. She gets up and takes her paper to the front to Senorita Rodriguez.

"Raven your done so quickly." Senorita Rodriguez says.

"Can I go now, please?" Raven says holding out her test papers. And now almost in tears, as she looks back at Eddie.

"I'm sorry Raven, but I'm not allowed to let you out of class during final exams." She explains, as she took Ravens exam paper.

"Okay then." Says Raven. She goes back to her seat, stomping. Waiting impatiently for class to be over.

The test is now finally over. And everybody passes up their papers.

"Alright Seniors. The exam is over. I will miss you all, o' so very much." Senorita Rodriguez says as she wipes her eyes , smudging her mascara alittle with her middle finger. "You are all dismissed for the last time."

Everyone walks out of Spanish class. Except Raven and Eddie. Eddie knew he might have done something wrong today. Raven still at her desk thinking to herself. Senorita Rodriguez walks out with a folder full of the exam papers.

"I'll see you guys at graduation." Senorita Rodriguez says as she walks out of class.

"Alright then. I'll be seein' ya." Eddies says to Senorita Rodriguez. Then he walks over to Raven with his hands in his pockets. Then he looks down at Raven.

"Raven what's wrong with you?" Eddie starts. "Did I do something to upset you?"

Raven looks up at him with an evil glare in her eyes, looking at Eddie with a twisted face.

She gets up from her desk. She walks over to the door and slams the door shut, so no one can listen. "What's wrong with me?" Raven yells at the top of her lungs. "Eddie what is wrong with you?"

"Know, what woman? You act like this is a special day or something baby. Now why are you so upset? Tell me what's wrong." He says as he grabs her by the hips and pulls her in close, going in for a kiss. But she dodges it, and moves out of the way. "Eddie? Today is our 3 month anniversary of being together." She says with an attitude.

"OK? So... 3 months." Eddie says.

"Eddie! Are you serious?" She yells out, as she stomps her foot.

"Look Rae! I don't have time for ya attitude." He explains." Talk to me when you calm down. I'm outta here." He storms off out of the class.

Now Raven was left all alone in the class. "I can't believe this." Raven says quietly to herself. "It's not even about the gift anymore. I just can't believe he forgot." She walks out slowly with her arms crossed. "Maybe I would have been bette off going back with Devon"
