Chapter 11
Raven's Point of View
I woke up for school the next morning feeling as if I never went to sleep. As I got ready; putting on black skinny jeans, my combat boots, multiple belts, a black, purple school skirt, a long sleeve shirt and applied my black make up. I dreaded the day ahead of me. I wasn't in trouble for not coming home last night; my parents didn't even notice, and I wasn't in trouble in school, which was a surprise, but I just wasn't the Raven I usually felt day after day.
I ate in the cafeteria with Becky and Matt across from me, staring out the cafeteria window. I was feeling the same way I felt when Jagger tried to trap me in his underground apartment, when Luna appeared in the fun house of mirrors, when Valentine was in the cave with me and Alexander.
I couldn't shake the feeling that something was going to happen...
Trevor's Point of View
I tried to concentrate today. Semester exams were not too far away and I have to make the grade, my soccer scholarship depends on it, but as I sat in the library during lunch I couldn't think about any subject that I needed to study. All I thought about was Raven.
My stride was a little off today, Raven was too. My conscience and better half nagged me to talk to her, but since that morning we drove back to school together we haven't said a word to each other since. Nothing; no insults, no compliments. It was as if we barely knew the other existed.
I knew something was wrong. I had that same gut feeling I'd get in games where the coach called a play that I knew would fail, but this was 100 times worse.
But it's just none of my business.
Unless...
Alexander's Point of view
I couldn't sleep. I tried to, I shut my eyes and laid in my coffin for hours. I knew what was keeping me up, it was making me restless. I knew there would be issues about how to keep all this from Raven, likewise, keeping her from it.
But there are just some things I have to do.
Mathias' Point of View
I was laying in one of Jagger's spare coffins just after I revealed the reason I was here.
IWithout a care in the world, I drifted off to sleep smiling.
Things were going to get really interesting really fast.
Jagger's Point of View
Mathias told me everything; still in shock and unable to believe a word I entered the elevator with a sickening feeling crawling across skin, heading for the bar; I needed to speak with Romeo.
Some things are better left undisturbed.
But this changes everything...
