Chapter one.
…
Saturday afternoon Raven sat alone in her apartment reading as usual. Her hair was up in a ponytail, she had her comfy warm pajamas on, a pair of fuzzy purple slippers, and a steaming cup of tea beside her. She was leaning back comfortably on the sofa with her book open when her roommate entered the apartment.
Kori and her long term boyfriend Richard noisily entered the room. Raven sighed and put her book down as the pair continued to kiss and giggle as they groped one another. "Raven!" Kori said with a startle as she spotted Raven. "You're still here?" She said in surprise as Richard continued to kiss her neck from behind her.
"Indeed I am." Raven responded trying to go back to reading her book.
"She's in the same spot too." Richard noticed.
"Very observant of you, Dick." Raven drawled.
"Richard, can you give us a minute?" Kori asked.
"Okay." He said leaning in and kissing her, "Just don't be too long." He said before going into the bedroom.
"Do I need to make a house rule about showing affection outside the bedroom?" Raven groaned as Kori sat down next to her.
"Raven, it's Saturday night and you're here alone, again." She said facing her.
"And?..." She questioned.
"I just fear that ever since the incident with…" She paused, "He who shall not be named, you have been kind of scared to get out there; back on your feet." She said hesitantly.
"I am not scared." Raven said sternly.
"Of course not, but I was just thinking that maybe you… you should go out… on a date…"
"A date?" Raven questioned.
"Well… to be more specific, I think you need to get laid." Kori said bluntly.
"Excuse me?!"
"You've just been in this rut, that's all, and I just think maybe if you got some, then maybe you wouldn't be so down all the time." She suggested.
"I am not down all the time." Raven defended.
"But you kind of are. Raven, it's Saturday night, and you're here reading, just like you do every weekend."
"I like to read." She defended again.
"I know, and that's fine, it's just… Raven, you're my best friend, and I love you, I just think you need to get back on the horse." She said with a smile.
"Okay, and how do I proceed in doing that?" She asked sarcastically.
"Oh I created you an online dating profile!" Kori said excitedly.
"Wait, you what?" Raven said in shock as Kori hopped up and grabbed her laptop.
"Yep, see I did all the work." She said logging into the profile.
"I can't believe you did this." Raven said, trying not to show the horror on her face.
"All you need to do is pick a guy, meet up, and bang." She said simply with a smile.
"Kori, I can't." She objected.
"Sure you can." She encouraged. "Look, see you already have four messages, and they're all cute guys!" She said excitedly.
"Kori I…"
"Just think about it, talk to them, test the waters."
"Kori…" She protested.
"Great! If you need me I will be in my room watching Game of Thrones with Richard!" She said hopping off the sofa.
Raven rolled her eyes letting herself fall back on the couch. "I don't need to get laid." She huffed to herself, but then her eyes slowly glanced at the open laptop on the coffee table. "Ugh." She groaned sitting up, "I can't believe I'm doing this." She said setting the computer on her lap. She couldn't help but laugh at the way Kori had set up her profile, she apparently had put her real name instead of a user name, and as for what are you looking for, she put, 'anything I can get'. "Jesus Kori." She said shaking her head before clicking on the messages icon. She did have 4 messages and they were all close by, she could possibly hook up with any of them. But she didn't do stuff like that; this was completely out of her comfort zone. She let out another long sigh before clicking to view them.
WellHung54: ~Heyyy~ "Nope."
NickTheKing: ~Hi sexy~ "Pass."
MasterPoet32: ~Do you wanna be Joliet to my Romeo, Kim to my Konya, Angelina to my Brad Pit?~ "Oh brother." She huffed rolling her eyes. She was about to give up but she couldn't help but wonder what the last person had to say.
LoganDude: ~Hi how are you?~ "Well, I guess we have a winner." She decided.
Raven: ~Hi.~ She messaged and seconds later he responded.
LoganDude: ~Hey how's your night going?~
She stared at the screen for awhile before throwing away everything she had to lose. "Fuck it." She said out loud.
Raven: ~Would you like to hook up tonight?~
LoganDude: ~Really?~
Raven: ~Yes.~
LoganDude: ~Really?~
Raven: ~Yes!~
LoganDude: ~Wow Okay, sure.~
LoganDude: ~Your place or mine?~
Raven: ~Yours.~
"Holy shit." She couldn't believe she just did that and as his address popped on the screen she realized she was actually considering doing this. She quickly put the computer down and stood up, running her fingers through her hair. "I'm doing this, I'm actually doing this." She said pacing her steps. She then ran up to Kori's room and knocked before quickly opening it. "Kori I need- Oh god!" She should have known that watching Game of Thrones meant making out with it playing in the background. She blushed, turning and facing outside the door as she spoke. "Kori I… I need your help." She said, trying not to sound too anxious.
She waited a moment for Kori to put a shirt on and meet her outside of the room. "What's wrong?" Kori asked.
"I'm doing it, I'm actually doing it." She said, still in shock.
"You're meeting a guy on the internet?" Kori asked and she nodded. "Eeek, Raven, I'm so happy for you!" She squealed, grabbing her hands and jumping up and down. She then looked down at Raven's pajamas, "You can't wear that." She said simply.
Raven brushed her hair and changed into a fitted shirt and jeans, she put on her winter coat and some boots before leaving the apartment to bear the cold winter that was outside. She hopped in her car and drove to the nearest liquor store, there was no way she was going to do this sober. She bought a bottle of whisky and before she knew it she was outside his apartment door.
"Okay, here we go." She said building up enough courage to knock on the door. The sudden thought of him being a serial killer or rapist popped into her head and she was suddenly thankful Kori made her take those self defense classes with her. "This is it." She breathed, knocking on the door and it was only seconds later when he opened it.
"Oh my god you're an actual girl." He said in surprise.
"Thank you?" She said awkwardly.
"Ha… Um, hi, Raven I presume." He said holding out his hand.
She stared at it for a minute before looking at him, "This isn't a business transaction."She told him.
"Right, sorry." He said pulling back and scratching the back of his head, before moving aside to let her in. "I'm just surprised you're a real girl, and you're here… for… a hookup?"
"Can we not talk about it?" She asked simply.
"Sorry, I just thought a couple of guys were gonna show up at my door and rob me, that's all." She gave him a perplexed look at that, before unintentionally scoping him out, he was fit, kind of short but yet taller than her, his hair was shaggy, and he had a green graphic-T and loose jeans. "You're really pretty." He suddenly said and she blushed realizing she was checking him out.
"Thanks." She said quickly before sitting down at his kitchen island and opening up the whisky. "Glasses?" She asked and he quickly ran to the kitchen.
"Right, I guess people don't hook up sober." He assumed, putting the two glasses in front of her. She nodded and poured the drinks and they both took a big shot, tensing at the bitter alcohol going down their throats. "So… are you into birds or something, Raven?" He asked as she leaned over the island.
"Actually my friend made me the profile, I guess she didn't get what a user name is and instead put my actual name."
"So your real name is Raven, wow… that's, that's really pretty." He smiled, leaning over the island table.
She poured herself another drink, "So Logan?"
"Ha, well… Logan is my last name, you can call me Gar." He smiled.
"Gar?" She questioned and he nodded. "Okay?" She took another drink as she started to feel the buzz of alcohol.
"So… I've never really done anything like this before?" He said hesitantly scratching the back of his head.
"Me neither." She said finishing off her third glass.
"Yeah, sure." He said, doubting this couldn't be her first one night stand, she was far too casual. An uncomfortable silence grew in the room as they both drew a blank at what to do. He awkwardly moved his glass around, avoiding eye contact before speaking. "So… like I said, I haven't really done anything like this before and I'm not sure what you want me to-" Before he knew it she suddenly grabbed the collar of his shirt and pulled him forward, over the counter and kissed him forcefully. She did it partly to shut him up and partly to get things going. His eyes were wide in shock that she moved so fast, before lightly falling as she kissed him, and he slowly lifted his hand up to cup her face as he kissed back...
