"What the hell do you think that you are doing here?" she yelled "You have done nothing but cause problems in Raven's life. You moved away and broke her heart. You stayed together in a long distance relationship which was hard on her. When you came to town it was all about having sex."

"Wait Chelsea!" he had to shout to be heard "Calm down, I just need to talk to you for a minute."

Just as he was shouting this the porch light came on and the front door opened.

"Chelsea, honey is everything ok out here?" Joni said "I thought that you were going to be at.." she didn't get to finish.

"No it's not alright! I have just had the worst night of my life! I could have possibly lost the love of my life forever because of this stupid ass over here!" she shouted as she turned and pointed at Devon.

"Hello.." short pause.

"Devon" he offered.

"Hello Devon" Joni said "What is the problem?"

"I just need to talk to her for a few minutes. I don't have long, I have to leave again, but she needs to hear what I have to tell her."

He said this to Joni, but was hopping that Chelsea would listen and decide to hear what he had to say. He knew that her rough night was his fault.

"Chelsea" Joni turned to her daughter "take a deep breath. Let it out and as you do let out your frustration."

"Mom! Don't shrink me."

"Chelsea just do it. Listen to what he has to say." she hugged her "and do it quietly so that the neighbors don't call the police."

Joni stepped back and turned to Devon.

"You must have done something really bad to get her this worked up."

She turned and went back inside.

Chelsea just stared at him. It took everything in her not to hit him as hard as she could.

Deep breath

"Chelsea" he said "I'm sorry about that kiss that you saw."

Deep breath

"I kissed her." he sighed " She doesn't want anything to do with me like that anymore. She just wants to be friends."

Deep breath

"She really loves you Chelsea. It killed her to watch you leave. She looks at you in a way that I have never seen her look at anyone."

Deep breath

"Devon" the tears started to fall down her face thinking of the pain that she had caused Rae. "She means everything to me and I could have, no I still could be losing her, because of you."

"I'm really sorry Chelsea, but she loves you. This wasn't her fault. She didn't have anything to do with it."

"I know. I knew that before you told me. All I have to do is trust her like I always have."

"You should go to her. She is hurting really bad right now."

"And it's your fault."

"Yeah, I know" he said sadly "Bye I hope that everything works out for you two."

"Bye" she said her anger fading away "Thanks for coming to explain. Took guts."

He gave her a small smile and walked down the street to his car.

"Wow" she sighed "If I hadn't of figured things out on the drive, I would have believed him. He really is a good guy and will be great for some girl, just not my girl."

She turned and went inside her house to wash up and change. She wanted to go to Raven's right away but she knew that at that very moment her appearance was not exactly the best. She wanted to apologize she wanted to be with Rae, forever, and she was going to tell her so.

-------------------------------

Raven and Eddie walked to the front door and she pulled out her keys.

"So girl, what happened?"

They walked into the house and she turned on the lights and went and flopped down on the couch. He came and sat beside her.

"Seriously Ed, I thought that I had her" she sighed "She told me that she didn't want to be away from me."

"Well Rae that's a good thing right? I mean at least she still wants to be with you."

"But that's just it. I don't know what she wants anymore." she sobbed "I don't know if I could go back to being just friends again."

Eddie wrapped his arms around Raven and let her cry. He was trying to think of what he could say to make her feel better. He looked down at her and a small smile spread across his face. She had fallen asleep. He could tell that it was a restless sleep though, she kept moving and mumbling.

"This thing really has her all torn up inside." he sighed "But I just don't think that either one of them wants to be without the other."

He slid himself out from Raven's grasp and gently laid her down on the couch. Placing a blanket over her he headed to the kitchen to get a drink and think about what he could do to help his friends.

TAP TAP TAP

Eddie turned startled to the kitchen door. His mouth dropped open when he saw who it was. He let her in.

"Hey Chelsea"

"Hey Eddie" she said with a small smile "Where is she? I have something that I need to tell her."
