Ravens Pov:

As we neared the school I stopped at the door. Adam looked at me with gentle eyes. "you ok" he asked turning to face me. "yah I'm fine." he raised an eyebrow. "I promise." He gave me one fine look before he spoke. "great now lets get in their so i can show off your radiant beauty" He said giving me a quick peck on the cheek holding the door open for me.

"after you" he said grinning. I loved how he was such a gentlemen, how he was so careful and gentle towards me but it also worried me at times. People could easily misuse his kindness and it made me furious to think someone would take advantage of him. I pushed those feelings aside and walked through the door that he so generously held open for me. As soon as I stepped in I could hear the music blasting from every direction.

Everyone was laughing and dancing like there was no tomorrow. This defiantly was going to be an interesting night. He lead me to the punch bowl never releasing my waist as we navigated our way through the crowd. I spotted Emmett and Luke and they motioned for us to come over. I rolled my eyes smiling and tapped Adams shoulder looking towards them.

Taking a hint he walked with me over to them as Luke was gawking over Cleo's ridiculously tight dress that was quiet revealing. I rolled my eyes then cleared my throat. "So you having fun" I asked Luke a bit irritated at how perverse he could be. "yep couldn't be better" he said grinning. I couldn't help but simile as Emmett pulled Cleo closer to him. No matter how insecure Emmett could be he'd always be my best friend.

"so look at you wow Adam that must have taken some serious "work" to get her in that dress, Luke said waving his eyebrows. Adam turned a bright shade of red at the comment and looked at the floor as if it had suddenly become interesting.

"Luke " I warned but couldn't help smiling at Adams shyness "hey sorry I was just kidding" he said raising his hands in surrender. "so Raven" Cleo said in her cherry voice that gave me head aches. "were did you get you dress its to die for" she asked smiling from ear to ear. I raised and eyebrow not really good with the whole girl talk thing.

"um not really sure I've had it for a while" I said "wait isn't that the dress your mom forced you to buy because she was convinced you would love it eventually" Emmett said laughing. I twitched at the memory and I'm pretty sure Adam noticed. He looked at me concerned but I didn't dare face him.

"well if you ever remember give me a call" she said in he. r perky voice. "I'll do that" I said sarcastically with a false smile. She reminded me so much of my sister. She was the kind of person who charms her way through life instead of working for it and that annoyed me to no end. Just then my phone rang again and I already knew who it was and this needed to stop.

"I'll be right back" I said excusing myself and walking outside into the cold frigid air. "what do you want" I asked angrily into the phone ..."no I'm never coming back I'm not letting you back into my life not now not ever" ... "what more do you want from me what else could you possible take from me I gave you everything and no matter how hard I tried it just wasn't enough" I screamed ... "no I'm done I don't need your approval I'm finally happy and your not going to take that away from me not again" I said then hung up the phone.

I tried to calm down before I went back in or Adam would ask me a thousand questions and I wasn't in the mood for it. I walked over to Adam and he smiled when he saw me coming. "everything ok" he asked. I nodded my head. "well would you care for some punch" he asked holding a cup full of it in my direction. "thanks" I said with a weak smile. I took a sip then started chocking on something hard.

"Raven are you ok" he asked holding me as I tried to dislodge what ever was stuck in my throat. When I finally did I removed it from my mouth "what the heck is this a ring" I said confused. "yah I thought it would be romantic" he said apologetically as he scratched the back of his neck the way he always did when he was nervous. I couldn't help but smile at his thoughtful gesture even if it almost killed me.

"yah because almost killing me is so romantic" I teased. He blushed "well" he said taking the ring, wiping it off and getting down on one knee "I hope this makes up for it. Raven" he said with emotional eyes "will you make me the happiest guy on earth by doing me the honor of being my girlfriend. I promise to always be their for you whether you need me to be or not"

This received a collection of ooo's and aww's from the crowd that formed around us. I looked down at his hopeful face that I've grown to love. I was feeling so many things at once it was overwhelming but the one thing that I did know is that I wanted to be with Adam more then ever.

"yes" I said. He smiled widely and slipped the ring slowly on my finger and stood up taking my hand his where it belonged. "so you like the ring I mean if you don't like it I can take it back it'd no problem. He rambled nervously. I placed my hand on his cheek. "Adam I love it" I said smiling as he blushed.

"good now I don't have to wait to do this" he said grabbing my waist leaning in to kiss me, as he hovered over my lips I could feel his warm breath. I think he waiting for me to make the next move so I closed the gap between our lips holding onto his forearms for support. It's was sweet and gentle but passionate all the same. It was a collage of all the feelings we felt for each other wrapped up in one loving kiss. I didn't want to part from him because I knew this might be the last time but I needed oxygen so I gently turned away. He in return kissed my cheek then slowly removed his lips.

He smiled at me and blushed even harder when he realized that everyone had been watching us. I really didn't care if everyone saw it I loved Adam and would always be proud to be with him, never ashamed. "wow that was some kiss" Emmett said walking towards us. This caused a tiny blush to creep on Adams face but he never let go of my waist.

"Cleo said she needs you she's in the bathroom. She said something about her hair" I sighed "aren't I just lucky" I said sarcastically. "can you hold this" I asked Adam. "yah sure" he said taking my coat"' thanks I said then kissed him lightly as walked away. "thank you" Emmett yelled. "whatever" I yelled back throwing my hand up.

Adams Pov:

"So it's official you and raven" he said leaning on the table and staring off into space. "yah" I said as we stood in awkward silence. After a while I finally said the thing that I knew was on his mind. "you know I'd never do anything to hurt her" I said turning to face him. He sighed. "I know its just that she's been through so much. She's like a sister to me and I guess I'm just being a little over protective." "I get it and I'd do everything in my power to make sure Ravens ok even if it kills me" he laughed. "I know man" he said patting my back then walked away.

Just then Ravens phone rang in her pocket. I took it out and looked at the caller ID. I debated on if I should answer it or not. I knew she'd be mad but what if something was wrong. Eventually curiosity won over and I answered it. "hello" I said "hello who is this" said the woman on the phone. "my names Adam I'm a friend of ravens" I said deciding to leave out the boyfriend part. "oh thank goodness" she said. Have you seen her we need to talk to her please where are you" she asked desperately. I paused for a moment. "um I'm sorry but I don't think Raven wants me to say anything." "please this is her mother if you care about her at all you will tell me were she is" I sighed. "ok"

I walked of the bathroom after helping Cleo fix her hair even though it looked fine to me. I walked over to Adam and saw him talking to some woman. When she turned around I froze. "Catherine" I said
