Disclaimer: I don't own Teen Titans just my OC Nix. I also don't own Harry Potter which I mention in here.
The first few classes went by pretty fast for me, and before I knew it, it was finally time for lunch. I got to the usual table and took my seat between Kori and Nix. Dick was on Kori's other side talking to Victor. I was really surprised when Gar showed up to the table. "Hey Grass Stain, what're you doing here?" Victor said half surprised half happy Gar was with us.
"I just missed my friends so I told Terra I was eating here today." He smiled taking the seat directly across from me.
"Well…exactly how did you tell her that? She looks more pissed than Lavender Brown did in the sixth Harry Potter movie after Ron dumped her." Nix said pointing out Terra at a table across from ours glaring directly at Gar and…I think me.
"Don't pay too much attention to her." Gar said waving it off. "How've your days been so far?" I zoned out as they talked. Terra really did look angry. She kind of looked like she was struggling with herself not to commit murder or something silly like that. The stare was making Raven very uncomfortable.
"Gar seriously what did you say to Terra?" I practically hissed. "She hasn't stopped glaring at me since you got over here."
Garfield turned around to look at the blonde then looked back at Raven. "It's nothing Rae, just ignore it." He insisted.
Suddenly without warning Terra stood up. "You lying son of a bitch! I'm not stupid; I know you're cheating on me with that-that slutty witch!" She then picked up her untouched fruit cup and chucked it at me. It hit me square in the face, some of the fruit got in my hair, but most of it covered my face.
I was dumbfounded; Gar and I were just friends, what would give Terra that impression? "I'm not cheating on you with Raven!" Gar shouted. "You just never let me spend any time with my friends! You're controlling and possessive, and I'm tired of it! That's why I broke up with you! Raven and I are just friends and that's all we ever will be!"
Okay, that stung. I know a few seconds ago I was just thinking that, but hearing him say it really hurt. "I'm going to go wash this off…or something." I mumbled quickly before running out of the cafeteria. Nix must have motioned to Kori because the two of them quickly followed after me, probably leaving Dick, Victor, and Gar looking very confused.
I managed to get most of the fruit out of my hair; Kori and Nix never left my side. I don't know how or when, but somewhere along the line I started crying.
"Rae-Rae, you should call Arella and ask her if she can come get you from the school. Take the rest of the day off. Nix and I can get the rest of your homework for you." Kori suggested.
"Yeah," Nix continued. "You're in no condition to finish the school day, you could use some time off, especially after that whole show in the cafeteria."
I sniffled but I nodded. I didn't want to stay at school for the rest of the day. My mother wouldn't mind me leaving early anyways; I'd never missed a day of school, not even during the weeks of the divorce being finalized.
After I grabbed my backpack I walked out of the school to see my mother's car already waiting for me. When she noticed my extremely wet hair and my lack of makeup she looked concerned. "What happened today?"
"Gar's now ex-girlfriend threw a fruit cup at my face." I mumbled.
"Why on earth would she do that?"
"She thought Gar was cheating on her with me, but it's okay now, after she threw the fruit cup at me Gar explained that he'd never date me and she calmed down." I tried to explain as calmly as possible but my voice cracked and I let out a few more tears.
Arella sighed. "I'm sorry Raven; life hasn't been very easy for you. I feel like it's my fault."
"Are you kidding? None of this is your fault. How could it be?"
"Your first boyfriend Malchior, he reminded me of your father when we were your age. But I didn't try to stop you from dating him because I figured you wouldn't listen. And now Gar, the boy I thought would be right for you and one you obviously liked just unknowingly rejected your feelings in front of the entire cafeteria." Arella hugged me once we reached a stop sign. "If you need to skip more than one day of school I'll be willing to call in sick for you."
I shook my head. "No thanks, I'll just take the rest of today off. I'll go back tomorrow I promise." 'Oh crap, I have to walk to school with Gar tomorrow. How am I gonna handle that?' I zoned out as troubled thoughts began to flood my mind, and by the time I got upstairs to my room I was so tired from them that I passed out.
Well friends, there's chapter 2 only 2 more to go…yay! R&R
