Chapter 12 I told you

Randy's POV

The first thing I noticed when Raven walked in that morning was the white bandage on her left arm. For six oclock in the morning she seemed perky enough.

"Good morning Raven"

"Morning Randy, what would you like for breakfast?"

"Pancakes" I said not taking my eyes off the bandage. I was paranoid enough to think that someone had done that to her, from what she had displayed so far it wouldn't of surprised me.

"Should you be having pancakes?"

"Yes" I gave her a grin "What happened to your arm?"

She looked at it smiling somewhat "I got into a fight with the punching bag, it won"

I don't know why but I didn't believe her. It was just a feeling a got that she was lying. "Are you sure?"

"Yes" She shot me a look before going on with breakfast.

"I have some news for you"

"Your going to stop hitting on me because you've realised that your actually gay?"

I chuckled at her statement "No I'm not gay"

"Damn. Anyways your news?"

"I have a training partner coming over at seven and I hope that you don't mind"

She gave me another look "Its your house you can invite who you want"

"I don't want to make you uncomfortable"

"I'm sure it won't." She stopped what she was doing, a cold look on her face "Its either Ted or Cody isn't it?"

"Teddy"

That look in her eyes told the entire story, it was like she would rather eat broken glass then spend the day with Ted. I guess I could understand that.

"Are you going to be ok?"

She gave me a false smile "I'll be fine as long as he doesn't touch me"

"Why don't you like being touched?" It hurt a little that she ripped her hand back yesterday, it was like I diseased.

"I have an irrational fear of germs"

Again she was lying but not wanting to push and upset her I left it. "Well Teddy will be here about seven so that gives us an hour alone. Do you know how much damage we could do to each other in an hour"

"Its kind of a revulting thought actually"

"That was just cold"

"Thats me. Cold, frigid and a prude" She flashed me a grin getting on with breakfast.

Around seven the doorbell went off, gathering herself she answered the door. "Good morning Teddy"

He gave her a wolf like grin "Good morning Raven, how are you?"

"I am good and yourself?"

He was about to answer when she cut in coldly "Forget it I really don't care" In an instant she was back to her cold self. I guess she couldn't find it in herself to be nice to him. I still wanted to know why.

"And here I was thinking we could be nice to each other"

"Theres not enough drugs in the world to make me be nice to you" Raven snapped, her eyes dark and cloudy.

"Ok stop picking on the help, your meant to help me with training remember" I cut in a little angry at him. I just wanted him to leave her alone. She got that look in her eyes whenever she looked at him, it was like he had hurt her in the worst of ways and she just wanted him to die and be done with it.

"Alright I'm coming" Teddy rolled his eyes and followed me to the gym room.

"So you wanna tell me why you hate her so much?" I asked as soon as we were alone. Out of him and Cody he was definitely the one with the loosest lips.

"We just do" He shrugged setting up his gear.

"Thats not a reason"

He gave a sigh "Why do you even care?"

"I just do"

Ted got that smile on his face "You like her! Not just a quick fuck, you actually like her"

"So what if I do" I said defensively. Maybe I did like her more than just a quick screw. There was something about her that I found fascinating and I couldn't shake her. Ever since she came here I was having dreams and fantasies about her, ones that I liked so much that I resorted to using them to get me to sleep at night. We started training and I found myself thinking of her sweaty and wet, it was a great fantasy until he talked again.

"Thats a bad move Randy. Trust me the last thing you want is her"

"Why?" I didn't think Raven was that bad. He seemed to make her out to be some sort of monster.

"If she doesn't kill you, the other one will"

"Other one?"

"Her sister Iziah. She's about as psycho as Raven."

"She doesn't seem to be a psycho"

"Trust me she is, she broke Cody's nose for no reason and she threw a hot bucket at me"

I gave him a puzzled look "A hot bucket?"

"She heated up a bucket and threw it at me"

"Why?"

"Because she's a fucking psychopath" Ted rolled his eyes "Who knows what goes on in her fucked up head"

"Don't you just love it when people only tell one side of the story?" Raven cut in coldly leaning against the doorframe.

"Do you mind? This was a private conversation" Teddy snapped at her.

"Nothing is private when your talking about me. Why don't you tell him the other side of the story Teddy or are you afraid that he will say you deserved it?"

"There is no other side to the story, your a fucking psycho who's insane"

"Well I got there because of you" Raven snapped before looking at me nicely "Randy you have some bills, would you like me to take care of them for you?"

"Ooh yes please" I had completely forgotten about those and I'm pretty sure I was on the final notice.

"Ok"

"Raven on your way to the bank, try your best not kill anybody" Teddy gave her a sarcastic grin which she returned.

"Only one I wanna kill right now is you Teddy and maybe N*sync but mainly you"

As soon as she was gone I turned back to him "Ok the other side of the story and now"

"There is no other side"

"Teddy" I growled "Tell me and I suggest you do it now"

He gave another sigh "She punched Code and broke his nose because he slapped her on the ass"

"So he touched her knowing that she doesn't like it. Yeah he deserved it"

"Ok maybe he did but I didn't deserve the bucket"

"Really? Why do I find that impossible?"

"Fine! I pushed her sister over"

"You pushed her sister over and she heated up a bucket and threw it at you? Yeah you did deserve that"

"She annoyed me, she was going on and on about bright colours"

"So? Ignore it and move on"

"That whole family is fucked up. They need some bullets" Teddy said darkly.

"Or maybe you just need to leave them alone"

"You can't leave them alone, once your on their list they make your life a living hell"

I didn't say anything because deep down I had a feeling that somewhere down the line Ted and Cody did something to them to make them not leave them alone.

After almost hours of training we came out from the gym and took a seat on the couch, it felt good getting back into routine. Raven still wasn't back and I found myself hating that. Me and Ted played some video games for a while and soon enough my beautiful tattoed angel was back.

"Well I got all your bills settled Randy and got some news while I was out"

"Ooh what?" I said pausing the game, Ted shot me a look of annoyance. I'm pretty sure he was more annoyed that I was interested in what she had to say than at pausing the game.

"Nothing to do with you Randy"

"Tell me anyway"

She laughed slightly "I have a new boss starting next week. The old one finally took retirement"

"So is that good or bad?"

"I don't know yet. If they leave me alone then good"

"Yeah well done Raven, Randy lets get back to the game" Teddy whined like a child. Rolling my eyes I went back to the game. Raven sat down at the table and watched for a while, her eyes staring intently at the screen.

"Would you like to play Raven?"

"No thanks Randy, I'm happy to watch"

Teddy signed out of the game and coyly looked at her "I'm happy to watch as well. Watching is the best part"

Raven muttered something in spanish, flipping him off.

"Why don't you say that again but in english. I dare you too"

Raven just ignored him, focusing on the game.

After playing the game by myself for about twenty mintues I decided I was hungry again or maybe I just really liked her cooking.

"I take it you would like something to eat" Raven grinned knowingly.

"Yes please"

She chuckled "Men and there stomachs"

Teddy got up and stretched "I guess I'll be going. Hopefully she doesn't poison you Randy"

"I wouldn't do that to him. To you, yes but not to him"

For once he just ignored her and gave me a man hug good-bye. Looking at her he got that devious grin. "Would you like a hug Raven?"

"Touch me and you die"

He drew himself up to full height which he easily towered over her, he was inches from her. For her part she didn't back down she just stood there glaring at him evily. They just stood there glaring at each other then it happened. Teddy stroked a single finger down her face and I felt the jealousy creep into my veins. Just as fast Raven punched him in the face and he fell on his ass, his nose bleeding.

"Don't touch me"
