AN: Chapters like this convince me that I may need to put the rating up for future chapters.

"Why did you just do that?"

"Do what? Kiss you?" Raven asked, keeping her eyes to the sky. Garfield walked faster to stay beside her and keep up with her pace.

"Um, yeah," Garfield replied, his cheeks starting to burn.

"Well, my ex boyfriend, who you saw in the car park, has been pestering me since the break up. I would decline his proposals for us to date again by claiming that I had a new boyfriend. He didn't buy it as he did not ever see me with said boyfriend." She shoved her hands in her pockets as they continued their walk home. "Man, he is such a dick."

"That doesn't explain why you had to kiss me in front of him."

"Don't you understand? Seeing us kiss would've made him assume that you were the boyfriend that I told him about. He'll leave me alone now, thank god. He's against cheating, which is really the only thing I tolerate about him now," said Raven.

"Oh, well that makes sense, I guess. But why me? Why not one of your guy friends?" the green haired teen asked, his eyebrows narrowing.

"Well, I wanted my first kiss to be special and not awkward. All of my 'guy friends' have girlfriends, who are also my friends, hence making that idea slightly disturbing," the girl confessed.

Garfield's breath caught in his throat. First kiss? Had he just given Raven Roth her first kiss? "You're lying."

"Lying? How so? Roy's dating Jade, Wally and Jenny have been together since they were freshmen and-"

"No," he said, cutting her off. "I mean, you're lying about our kiss. It wasn't your first one, obviously. You don't need to lie."

"Kid, I'm not lying. That was my first kiss, and I don't really care if you believe it or not. I don't have to prove anything to you," Raven smugly said, rolling her eyes in the process.

Garfield just muttered, "whatever," and she did too shortly after.

"So, why did you break up with the blonde dude, anyway?" Garfield asked, changing the subject subtly.

"He would always want to go further than what I was comfortable with. He'd always say that we were taking things too slow, which is frankly what I prefer to do in relationships. At first, I didn't think much of it. Until he fricking straddled me," she recalled, shuddering. "He apologised afterwards, but I didn't listen. After I kicked him out of my house, I started to believe that maybe I was just being too stubborn and it was time to take our relationship seriously. By the time I called him to apologise, he was already hooking up with Tara Markov."

"Gross," Garfield said, cringing. "Tara hooks up with like, everyone."

"Even you?" Raven asked with a chuckle.

"She's actually tried to a couple of times. I declined all of her offers with ease," Garfield said. "Thanks for the kiss, by the way. It was my first one too."

"No problem, kid. But seriously? That was your first kiss?"

"Yup. Let's just keep it between you and me though, okay? I've got a reputation as a ladies' man," he said with a playful tone.

"You got it," she replied with a chuckle, easily matching his tone. "Oh, would you look at that? We're already here."

Garfield tilted his head up to examine his beloved home. He was too caught up in her conversation with Raven to even notice that he had even stepped foot in his neighbourhood. It seemed like they were making out in the school's car park just two minutes ago.

Raven held up her wrist to check the time on her watch. "Four o'clock. Right on time."

As if on cue, the door to the house swung open to reveal Garfield's parents, who appeared to be in a rush. "Oh, Raven! You're here an hour early!"

"Yes, I am. I hope you don't mind, but I just adore the atmosphere at your place," Raven replied with an innocent smile.

"Oh, don't worry, it's quite alright. We were actually thinking of leaving earlier and we were planning on calling you to see if you could come over sooner. This is splendid! I guess we should be leaving now, Mark."

Raven smiled softly as she tucked Erica in, while she wished her a good sleep. She quietly closed the door and exited the room. She began to walk towards the kitchen, but paused when she heard loud noises coming from Garfield's room. As she opened to the door to his room, she took a deep breath expecting the worst. She giggled slightly upon seeing that he was passed out in a chair, while an Xbox controller rested in his hands. She accidentally woke him up by tripping over on one of the wires that was connected to his TV, causing her to fall and land in his lap.

He shrieked slightly from the unexpected awakening, but his fear quickly turned into embarrassment as he examined the girl beneath him. Violet eyes quickly met emerald ones before they both looked away, blushing.

"Sorry for waking you up," Raven murmured as she scrambled out of his lap.

"No biggie," Garfield said, stretching. "But uh, what're you doing in my room?"

"I heard noises coming from your room. Because I'm me, I assumed that something terrible had happened like you'd been shot or something. I came in, only to find that it was your shooting game making those sounds," Raven explained. "Don't blame me for being cautious; your TV's sound quality really is amazing. It sounded real, okay?"

"You were worried about me, weren't you?" Garfield teased with a sleepy smile. "I knew you cared about me."

"I do not!" Raven protested, crossing her arms.

"You know, Raven, you always made it so obvious that you had a thing for me," Garfield said as his teasing continued. "You even kissed me. And you just tried to fall asleep in my arms. Adorable."

"Shut up. I'm warning you."

"Ooh, what are you gonna do? Make out with me until I stop talking?"

"Garfield. Stop."

"Or what?"

In one swift movement, Raven grabbed the boy by his shoulders and slammed him down onto his bed. She quickly climbed on top of him, straddling his waist. "I have a thing for you, huh?"

She kneaded his shoulders.

"I tried to fall asleep in your arms?"

Her tongue grazed his collarbone.

"I kissed you, specifically because I like you, right?"

She rocked her hips into is. He was now panting.

"Well? Aren't you going to answer me? You were so cocky just ten seconds ago."

"No, no! I was just, I was just kidding dude! And you knew I was!" he cried, hoping that his words would allow her to let him touch her.

"Are you going to apologise?" she alluringly asked, bringing her face down so it was inches away from his.

"I'm sorry!"

"Good. That's all I needed to hear," she said, climbing off of him. She exited his room after reminding him that she had ordered pizza for dinner.

Garfield just sat there, dumbstruck. He needed a cold shower.
