Chapter 3- Penny for your Troubles?
***2 WEEKS AFTER TRYOUTS***
"Raven, there is a van out here for you!" Beast boy yelled from outside her door. Raven was not in the mood to leave her friend's. How could she live without them, she loved her friends so much, even Beast boy. Raven was in her room packing the rest of her remaining belongings. She grabbed her cell phone; cell phone charger and her special penny that Beast boy had given her the day the world was suppose to end. She gathered her bags and walked out her door.
"Raven, Hurry up!" Beast boy yelled even louder, not knowing that Raven was right in front of him.
"I'm right here, no need to yell." Raven replied. She didn't know how much she was going to miss him.
"I'm sorry Rae, I just don't want you to miss your van." Beast boy said, looking down at his now interesting shoes. Raven didn't mean to be harsh to him.
"No Beast boy, I'm sorry I shouldn't have snapped at you like that and don't call me Rae." Beast boy looked at her.
"Here, let me carry those bags for you." Beast boy said grabbing the bags from Raven's arms. Raven looked into her room one last time before leaving.
"Goodbye room." With that Raven began walking to the van.
When Raven reached the van she saw all the other girls that had made the tryouts, including Maddie who jumped out of the bus to give her a hug.
"Raven, I can't wait! You won't believe where we are going!" Maddie exclaimed.
Raven gently pushed Maddie off so she could ask, "Where?"
All of the other girl's including Maddie yelled, "Los Angeles!"
Raven could care less where they were staying; she didn't want to leave home at all. Raven just nodded her head. Then the passenger door opened with Tyra stepping out,
"Okay Raven, we need to start leaving, so say your goodbyes."
Raven did not want to leave. Raven turned to face all of her friends. Cyborg was the first to say goodbye.
"I'm gonna miss you Raven, take care of yourself. Don't let them girl's push you around too much." Cyborg winked and gave her a hug. "Thanks Cyborg, I won't." Raven stepped back and then Starfire stepped up with tears in her eyes.
"Friend Raven, I will miss you very much, I hope you will do amazing in the modeling for America." Starfire said with tears now streaming down her face and struggling Raven with a death hug. "I'll miss you too Star, please don't suffocate me." Starfire released her. It was Robin's turn to step up.
"Raven, it's going to be hard to fight villains without you around. I'm going to miss you a lot." Robin said giving her a hug which Raven returned. "Don't worry; you guys will be fine without me." Robin let go of her and now, it was Beast boys turn. Raven looked at him and her heart dropped. She was going to miss him the most. He was annoying, but she loved him for that and she wasn't going to have him around for a while.
"Raven, I don't want you to go, I'm going to miss you so much. I'm sorry if I annoy you a lot, but now you don't have to worry about that happening. I hope you have fun." Beast boy said embracing Raven in a big loving hug. Raven returned the hug. "Don't be sorry, I'll miss you also Beast boy." Raven replied, just then something in the tower blew up and everyone looked at Raven. Raven let go of Beast boy.
"Sorry! This is why I don't show emotion." Raven blushed so she pulled up her hood. Tyra came up to Raven,
"Alright girl, it's time to go, let's get in the van."
Raven looked at her friend's one last time and entered the van.
The van was fancy on the inside. The seats were arranged in an oval and there was a small liquor producer type thing in the middle of the girls. Raven sat between Maddie and a girl named Kimberly. The entire group of girls had introduced each other and they talked for a while. They had gotten on to the subject of belly button piercings. Most of the girl's had there's pierced except for Raven and Chloe. (If you haven't read the descriptions chapter, I would suggest reading it before continuing throughout the story)
"Raven, you don't have yours pierced?" Kimberly asked out loud, putting Raven on the spot.
"No." Raven simply replied looking at her stomach.
"Why not, it doesn't hurt till after you get it done." Jessica implied.
"I'm not scared of the pain, I just never thought about getting it done." Raven explained.
"Girl the first thing your doing when we get to LA is getting your button done!" Miranda said, with a drink in her hand.
"Yay," Raven replied sarcastically. Chloe looked at the other girls,
"I want mine done too!" Kimberly laughed.
"Okay whatever."
- 2HOURS LATER -
After a long time of riding in the van they finally reached LA. They are all supposed to be staying in a huge fancy house that has been rented out just for them. (Think of it as the Bad Girl's Club house) When they got to the house the entire group of girls unloaded their stuff. It wasn't late; it was around six o' clock when they reached LA.
"I call single bed!" Diana yelled running into the house.
"I call second single bed!" Darla yelled running into the house.
Raven really didn't care as long as she got a bed. She gathered her stuff and walked into the house. When she walked in, she was amazed at the house. It was so different than Titan's tower. The gathering room was big with a huge circular sofa and a flat screen that was embedded into the wall. There was a spiraling staircase that went up to the second floor where the rooms were located.
Raven began walking up the stairs with her luggage. After walking up the stairs she walked down a hallway and saw the rooms along the hallway.
"Hey Raven, you wanna share a room with me?" Maddie asked, walking up behind Raven.
"Sure." Raven replied entering one of the rooms that had two twin size beds in it. Raven and Maddie sat there stuff down. They started unpacking there stuff.
"Hey look! A penny, if you find a penny pick it up, uh, something." Maddie sang picking up the penny. Raven quickly turned her head towards Maddie.
"Hey! That's my penny! Please give it back to me." Raven asked reaching her hand out. Maddie snatched her hand back.
"No. It's mine! I found it! Besides, it's just a penny." Maddie replied.
"Maddie, it's mine, give it to me." Raven said sternly, extending her hand outwards to Maddie.
"Raven, get over it, it's my penny! I found it, so it's mine!" Maddie yelled. Raven was beginning to lose her patience. They didn't notice that the other girls had came into their room to see what the fuss was about, and none of the girls knew they were being filmed either.
"Maddie, give me my penny! It has no value to you. It's special to me, give it back." Raven replied trying to keep her cool.
"It does have value to me; its value is one cent! And it's special to me because I found it!" Maddie yelled, waving the penny teasingly in Raven's face.
"Maddie just give Raven the damn penny!" yelled May.
"Stop being a bitch Maddie." Kimberly added in. Maddie looked at them.
"I'm not; I just want to know what's so important about this penny." Maddie yelled at them. Jessica walked up to Maddie and snatched the penny from Maddie. "It's none of your damn business Maddie!" Jessica gave Raven the penny. Raven looked at Jessica.
"Thanks."
"Girl it's no problem, I just don't like people being bitches." Jessica smiled.
Raven smiled. She really liked Jessica. She was more her type of friend.
"Raven you wanna room with me?" Jessica asked with a smile.
Raven looked at Maddie. After what had just happened with Maddie, she didn't want to have anything to do with her.
"Yeah, thanks." Raven smiled, gathering her stuff and walked out of the room with Jessica, leaving a sad Maddie by herself.
Jessica and Raven walked into their new room, which looked like the other room except it had pictures of the previous top models and Tyra. Jessica looked at Raven.
"You know, I could make that penny into a necklace." Raven looked at her.
"Really?" Raven asked. Jessica nodded.
"Sure can, it's not that hard at all." Jessica took the penny from Raven's hand and sat down on the bed. Raven sat right beside her, watching her. Jessica took out a thick needle from one of her small jewelry bags, and then she punctured a small hole into the penny. Then she dug in her bag and pulled out a necklace chain and looped it through the penny and showed it to Raven.
"I love it, thanks Jessica." Raven said, putting the necklace on.
Jessica smiled, "call me Jess."
"RAVEN," called a voice from down the hall. Raven looked at Jess.
"Who is calling my name?" Raven asked. She still didn't know a lot of the girl's names and voices.
"That's Kimberly," answered Jess getting off of her bed. Raven got off the bed too and started walking downstairs with Jess.
"Yes," Raven asked looking at Kimberly who was surrounded by Chloe, Miranda, Max, May and Susie.
"Go change into something simple, but cute." Kimberly commanded. Raven looked at her confused.
"Why?"
Kimberly rolled her eyes and smiled.
"Because silly, you are going to get your belly button pierce along with Chloe!"
Raven looked at Kimberly like she was dumb, "seriously?"
"Yes, now go upstairs and change." Kimberly commanded once again.
Raven looked at Jess, "please come with me." Jess and Raven walked upstairs, and into their room. Raven didn't have the slightest clue as to what to wear.
"You wanna borrow a shirt from me and some jeans?" Jess asked.
Raven looked at her. "Please?"
Jess walked over to her clothes. She picked out a pair of torn, black jeans and a black shirt that said, 'I can out drink all you bitches.'
"I don't drink." Raven said looking at the shirt as she was putting it on.
"So what, just put it on." Jess said. Raven obliged and put the shirt on. When she did it came up short which exposed her belly button. Raven rolled her eyes. She felt like a slut. They walked downstairs where everyone was waiting for her.
Kimberly looked at her up and down, "Cute, let's go!"
And with that, they left to go get Raven's belly button pierced.
Oh my goshness! I'm done! :) please tell me what you think! I love you all!
