*A/N Becky has an out-of character moment...*

Chapter 3 Double Date

"Raven, Becky's here." It was 5:45, half an hour after I had gotten home, so I'd barely had time to change into a super cute Kissing Coffins t-shirt.

"Hey Becky! Hey Matt!" I said, climbing into the car. "So I'm guessing Alexander will be meeting us there." Becky said. I was doing a pretty good job of ignoring her when Matt complimented me on my shirt.

"Thanks," I muttered. I looked down and noticed that I was still wearing my tattered shorts and fishnets. I had forgotten to change them after school.

The ride to Hatsy's Diner was awkwardly quiet, and I felt really bad about not telling her that Alexander and I broke up. I couldn't tell her now, though, especially not with Matt around. Matt's a cool guy and all, but I couldn't just tell any cool guy my deepest, darkest secret.

"Hey Rave-" Trevor looked at me and whispered, "you didn't tell me they were coming." I hid my face with my hands and peeked through the cracks. "I'm sorry Trevor." I turned to Becky. "Can I talk to you outside?" She nodded her head and said, "I think there's something you need to tell me."

Once we were outside, Becky started talking to me in a freakishly calm voice. "What the hell is going on between you and Alexander and Trevor?"

"Alexander broke up with me" I said, looking at the ground and not daring to make eye contact with Becky.

"He what?" She asked in that same creepily peaceful voice. "Alexander did what? Why'd he break up with you, Raven? What'd you do?"

"I don't blame him for breaking up with me," I said, evading the actual question.

"Out with it Raven."

"I screwed Trevor Mitchell."

"You did WHAT?" She screamed, her façade cracking. She made me feel so bad that I wanted to go cry in corner, and, to make everything worse, people were staring at her like she grew two heads.

"I screwed Trevor Mitchell."

"How could you- I thought you- Raven!" Becky stutter shouted. "I thought you hated him Raven! I thought he was the enemy. The Neanderthal. How'd he you talk into it? Tell me what he said."

"He said he loved me."

"That's it? I love you Raven; you're like a sister to me. But that doesn't much, does it?"

"He said he loved me ever since that day in kindergarten when the teacher asked us what we wanted to be when we grew up and I said that I wanted to be a vampire."

"See Raven, that wasn't so hard. Now let's go back in and eat. I am crazy hun,gry." I was glad that Becky wasn't mad at me anymore. Becky's scary when she gets mad, so I've always tried my hardest not to make her mad.

Once we got our food, I noticed Alexander walk in, so I scooted closer to Trevor. I'm not completely sure why I did that, but I did feel Trevor's arm wrap around my waist. And then I saw it. Alexander was here with another girl. Luna.

I actually quite missed Luna. I missed having someone that understood me and why I felt the way I did. So, for that same reason, I felt compelled to walk over to where Luna and Alexander were sitting.

"Hey Luna. Haven't seen you in a while," I said, trying not to look at Alexander.

"Raven! I've seen you in, like, forever." Luna stood up and hugged me tightly.

"Do you remember that Corpse Bride clutch I promised I'd order for you? Well, it came in a few days ago. Do you want to come over and get it?"

Luna instantly brightened. "Thank you Raven!"

"Do you want to come over to my house sometime later?"

"Definitely!"

"Bye Luna!"

"Bye Raven!" I walked back to a table full of my friend's and Trevor's pale faces.

"What's wrong?" They all turned to Luna, then back at me. "Look, Luna's my friend, so deal with it," I said as we finished dinner in silence. Trevor offered to pay for everything and no one objected. We all got up to leave.

"Raven, wait." I turned around to Trevor. "Here's my number." I punched it into my phone and left with Luna.
