Chapter 34 No survivors
Raven groaned pulling herself out of bed, today was the day the kids all went home and also her birthday. She wasn't sure which was worse but she had a feeling things could only get worse. Pulling on some clothes she flashed back to the hospital and the crazy drama, why couldn't her life be simple? Why couldn't people just leave her alone and let her live in peace? Because life was unfair and it didn't care for her plans of being left alone. Finally feeling ready to face the day she headed inside to the kitchen, the kids surprise still lingered in her head.
"Surprise!" They all cheered as she came in. It was just the kids and her sisters around and they had decorated the lounge with streamers and balloons to celebrate the day Raven was born.
"Wow its so bright" Raven commented as she was led to a seat by James. She was the guest of honour.
"That was me and Ally" Jamie said poudly fiddling with the streamers, "Do you love it Raven"
"I really do" She was honest with her response, the kids had put in a lot of effort for her birthday despite the fact that they should of been happier that they were going home today. "You guys went to a lot of effort thank you"
"Your welcome now we have presents" James said giving her the first gift "This is from Gina and me"
Raven wasn't sure whether or not to open it but seeing the delighted look on their faces she couldn't bring herself not to open it/ Peeling off the paper she unwrapped a beautiful silver necklace and a glass swan. They had made them from scratch.
"Wow there beautiful, thank you" Raen slipped the necklace on promising never to take it off. "Whos next"
"This is from Matt, Jamie and me" Ally pushed a present forward "We hope you like it"
"Im sure I will" Raven undid the wrapping to find a brand new tool set. "Oh wow, thank you so much. Totally love it"
"And this is from all of us" Iziah said bringing out the cheesecake that was her birthday cake. Complete with candles and everything. They all sang happy birthday to her and for the first time in her entire life she actually enjoyed her birthday.
After the celebrations Raven helped the others to pack their gear, most of their stuff that was confiscated they didn't want back, they could get along without it.
"So you guys must be excited" Raven commented helping Alana zip up her bag.
"I am! Finally away from you guys" James joked "Nah I'm only joking"
"Thats ok we're excited that your leaving James"
"Aw I'm gonna miss you too Raven"
"Thats still Sarge thank you" Raven poked her tongue out at him "Seriously though you guys have a chance to proove that your better than the brats you still see today, be better than that"
"We will but am I the only one thats gonna miss this house"
"No Ally I'll miss it too but I'm sure Raven's door is always open"
"Of course it is, to everyone but James"
"Thanks man"
"Seriously though, Matt is right, my door is always open for you guys so don't be afraid to use it"
"Thanks Raven, I'm really gonna miss you" Ally hugged her as the door rattled.
"Matt! James and Gina!" Storm hollered up the stairs.
Raven hugged them each, "You guys will be fine without me just remember that I can and will find you if you fuck up"
"We'll miss you too Raven" They laughed as they grabbed their gear and headed to their parents.
Jamie was the only one that was staying seeing as how she lived there so it was really only Alana that had to wait. Alana was nervous about going home, simply because she didn't know what to expect, with Raven she knew what she was meant to be doing every moment of the day, with her father it was like a guessing game, and she always seemed to lose.
"Alana! Your dad is here!" Storm shouted up the stairs, Alana was busy having a girly chat with Raven something else Raven had never done.
"Looks as though its time to go"
"You will be fine Ally I give you my word" Raven hugged her again before going downstairs with her.
"Hey dad"
"Hey yourself, hey Raven"
"Alana why don't you put your stuff in the impressive truck thats parked down my hill, I need to talk to your Dad"
"Sweet and thank you Raven"
"Anytime Ally"
"So what did you want to talk to me about?" Randy asked putting his sunnies in his shirt. Raven fiddled nervously with her shirt buttons.
"I was wondering if you would like to go out for coffee with me sometime," She had no idea why she was asking but she figuered that she had nothing to lose. He looked at her slightly uncomfortable.
"Are you asking me out?"
"Yeah I guess I am"
Again he was uncomfortable, and Ravens heart lept into her chest "Thats a no, ok plane crash and there were no survivors"
"I don't think its a good idea, for Alana's sake"
"I understand completely, forget I asked"
"I wouldn't go that far, we'll call it a raincheck" Randy kissed her cheek gently. "I would love to have coffee just not right now"
"Looking forward to it"
"Me too"
