CHAPTER EIGHT
(Raven POV)
(May before graduation)
Raven walked down the aisle past her boyfriend and best friend, who looked at her apologetically, and sat at the back table in her Calculus class, no one ever sat there so she had the whole area to her self. Trevor and Becky got to set at regular desk like normal people, but her belly stuck out to far to comfortably fit into a school desk.
She attempted to listen to the lecture, finals were coming up soon, but the little Soccer Snob in her abdomen refused to stay still. The kicking make her sick and dizzy, so she laid her head down, just to stop the swimming. The next thing she knew, there was a cold hand on her face. Raven looked up to see Trevor smiling down at her.
"You snored so loud, I'm pretty sure the other classes heard you." He grinned brightly.
"Class is over? Really?" she said sitting up to stretch against the chair.
"Yes, and now you can go home and sleep in your coffin." he teased.
"Good, I'm tired." Raven replied, ignoring his comments. Trevor grabbed her shoulder and Raven pulled away quickly. His smile faded and he walked past her. It was 3:30, an she was dead tired. She shoved her notebook in to the messy but mostly bare locker and leaned against it with a sigh. Trevor waited patiently beside her.
"I love you." he said truthfully.
"You better." Raven giggled. Trevor kissed her forehead and left for practice early, Matt and Becky waved her over to a bench.
"Today you get to find out who is occupying your 'igloo'." Becky cheered. Raven's nickname for her tummy had caught on quick.
"I'm just guessing, Beck, but I think it's a baby." Matt joked. Becky playfully hit his arm.
"Duh." she said, rolling her eyes. Raven smiled at them.
"I hope it's a boy!" Becky squealed.
"Me too!" Raven said excitedly. "Baby boy's are adorable. Plus if he looks like me then he's bound to be great." Raven added.
"Matt, what do you think?" Becky asked.
"I, myself, think I'd rather have a girl." he answered, shrinking back dramatically from Becky's glare.
"Have you and Trevor picked out names?" Becky giggled. Raven dropped her head and stare at the ground.
"Oh, Raven, you still haven't told him." Becky sighed, shaking her head, disappointed.
"Well, no, not yet. But I will. Eventually." She said the last bit under her breath.
"Raven." Becky growled, pacing. Matt stood and rubbed her arm.
"Becky will you go with me to the doctor today?" Raven blurted, changing the subject.
