Chapter 31 In the cupboard
By the time she got home everyone had heard about what had happened with Randy and how badly heart broken Raven was. They understood just how much Randy really meant to her and he wasn't just some human that she planned to eat. Storm hugged her tightly as soon as she got in, "Oh honey I'm so sorry"
"Its ok" Raven said sadly tugging from her grip. "How are you doing?"
"I'm doing alright, I'm sorry your hurting Raven"
"Its ok" Raven smiled brightly before tugging off her shoes and socks. Her trench coat hung neatly by the front door. Raven rummaged through the cupboards and pulled out several packets of chips, biscuits and popcorn.
"Oh Raven please don't" Storm begged, she knew exactly what Raven was doing and it was the last thing they needed. It was the only way she dealt with depression and it was usually the way you could tell she was really upset.
"No. I'm goin in the cupboard and I'm not comin out 'til the world is a better place" Raven yanked open the cupboard beaneath the sink and got inside. She fit in there perfectly and she wasn't going to come out until she had too. At least the axe man wouldn't find her easily because who would hide in a cupboard? Raven would.
Storm knocked on the door, "Raven I know your upset about Randy but you can't stay in there for the rest of your life"
"I'm not just the rest of his life"
"C'mon Rae, you have to come out. We need you"
"No, now leave me alone"
Storm let out a sigh and went back to her work, there was no point trying to get her to come out because she knew that Raven wouldn't listen.
Raven sat quite comfortably in her tiny cupboard munching on chips, she hated this part but it was what needed to be done. She put down her packet and took off her thick leather bracelet, inked to her left wrist was a black ink design. This was the reason she had little time left, she had done something so horrible that it branded her, litterly. Until she died it would be there, right now she was fair game for anyone. Putting her leather band back on she rest in her tiny spot listening to the outside world. She let out another sigh when she heard his heart, it was broken. She could take a little comfort in that, at least she had his love at one point and it wasn't faked. Raven could only hope that he listened once she had taken care of everything. She looked at her watch one last time, she amazingly had a while to waste so she lent back in her small space and did the only thing that was still allowed, she thought of Randy naked. At least she still had that.
