"Being Played"
Raven woke up the next morning in Eddie's arms. What am I doing here? She wondered because she couldn't remember anything but it felt great to have the warmth of Eddie against her back. Then she touched her cheek and everything came back to her.John slapping her and feeling horrible (or so he said) Chelsea sympathizing with her, Eddie…That's why she was here! She had gone in their last night Just then she heard her phone ringing and without thinking she ran out of Eddie's room to go answer, waking Eddie.
"Hello?" She said groggily into the phone.
"Hey…look I'm sorry about last night, babe I didn't mean to I swear, I was drunk and you know how I get when I'm drunk! I'm so sorry baby let me make it up to you tonight, I'll take you out to dinner and we'll have a great time!" John said apologetically.
"Aw… John that's so sweet! I'd love to! See you tonight!" Raven said into the phone. Once again she heard a higher pitched voice, like a woman, in the background. "Who was that?"
"Oh…my sister again…hey look I've gotta go call me later?" John asked.
"Sure will! Bye honey see you tonight." Raven said as she hung up the phone.
Just then Chelsea walked in and crossed her arms over her chest and shook her head. "Raven I can't believe you!" Chelsea spoke in disguist.
"What?" Raven said annoyed with Chelsea being nosey. Chelsea shut the door so Eddie and Jackson wouldn't hear what she was about to say to Raven.
"Last night you went with John and look how he treated you! Raven he slapped you! He tried to have sex with you! And then to top it all off you come home, climb in bed with Eddie, play with his heart for a little bit and then go running back to John! Raven your so stupid!" Chelsea yelled at her Raven.
"Chelsea you need to shut up! You don't know crap! You can't tell me what not to do or what did do was wrong! Just keep your big nose out of my business!" And with that Raven walked out of the room leaving the door wide open. Chelsea walked over to her bed, sat down and started crying her eyes out. Just then Eddie came in.
"Chels, what's wrong?" Eddie asked sympathetically.
"It's Raven! She is so dumb! She won't make her mind and she's going to hurt you in the end!" Chelsea said between sobs. With what was just said Eddie started crying. He knew he wasn't as gorgeous as John and he knew that's what Raven liked. Eddie wasn't even chubby anymore he had a nice build but just altogether he was not as gorgeous as John in Raven's eyes.
Eddie hugged Chelsea and Chelsea hugged him back as they sobbed together. They finally pulled apart about 15 minutes later. "So do you know where she went?"
"No. I don't." Chelsea said getting worried.
"I'll go call her." Eddie said leaving the room. He picked up his own cell phone and saw he had one new voicemail. He decided to check it really fast. It was Raven.
"Eddie, I'm sorry for playing with your heart, I'm sorry for making you think we had something more, but I am with John and I can't be with you anymore…I'm so sorry Eddie, I just pray we'll still be good friends after this. Oh I gotta go! Bye Eddie, call me later." Eddie's heart shattered.
Raven walked in the door about 3 hours later. She went into her and Chelsea's room and Chelsea wasn't in there. She was kind of happy though because she really didn't want to talk to her right now. Raven just climbed in the shower and took a long hot shower.
When she got out she heard the doorbell ring and so she threw on a bathrobe and made her way down the stairs. When she opened the door there were a dozen roses in her face.
"Delivery for Raven Baxter." Said a tall, lanky man with greased back hair.
"That's me!" Raven said reaching for them.
"Here you are." He said handing her the roses and walking down the long drive to a car that said 'Dee's Flower Boutique'. She smelled the roses and they were real alright. She found the card.
From: John
To: Raven Baxter
Message: I love you Raven! Can't wait to see you tonight! Sorry again about last night!
"I'm in love!" She said to herself out loud leaning her back against the closed front door.
Eddie who had been watching from upstairs hidden behind a bookcase, was heartbroken.
