Chapter 20
True Feelings
Raven tied her long brown hair into bunches. She placed her white-framed glasses over her nose. She was getting ready for her date with Fran. Fran was a boy with dark blonde hair, he was also part of the chess team, and running team. She hummed a tune, as she chose her outfit for the day. A light pink top, a sort of peach colour, which showed off her shoulders, and a pair of light blue jeans. On the floor, beside her wardrobe was white flip-flops. "Breakfast!" called her mother. She thumped down the stairs, and entered the kitchen. Raven's green eyes peered around the room. Her mother, Lilly was at the stove cooking eggs and bacon, while her brother was eating cereal. He had his feet on the other chair. "Marcus." warned his mother. He quickly took his feet off the chair. Raven grabbed a plate from the cupboard, her mother piled on the food. "This looks great." smiled Raven. "So, what do you have plan today?" asked her mother. "Well, Fran and I are going to the cinemas. We're going to see that new comedy." grinned Raven. Her mother nodded her head, she then head out of the room to wake Tommy. Marcus munched away at his food, not daring to look at his sister. "Is there something wrong?" she asked curiously. Marcus shook his head quickly. The silence remained. The tension in the air was thick. As thick as stone. I don't think a knife could even break it. "Okay, what's up." demanded Raven. She slammed down her empty plate, and cutlery. "Nothing." replied her brother. "No, seriously you're pissing me off!" she shouted. Marcus groaned. "Okay, it's Fran's status on M-Face." said Marcus softly. "What about it?" Raven said, with nerves. "He's changed his status to single, and he's already trying to ask Gemma out." he replied. "Let me see!" she screamed loudly. Marcus jumped, and handed her his phone. She quickly went to Fran's profile. "That bastard!" shouted Raven. Tears fell down her cheeks. She thought she had finally found love, and not get her heart broken, but as always she was wrong. She handed back the phone, and sprinted up stairs. Her father was truly now awake. A beautiful day, turned into a disaster in an instant.
Roy slapped the baseball onto his wall. It bounced, and landed in his right hand. His baseball cap was turned to the side, so he could see better. His dark red fringe flipped out to the side, it made him look even more cool. "Will you stop that!" shouted his younger sister Nellie. She was the second youngest. She was busy brushing her pet rabbit, Berry, as well as wearing her pet snake Nuka around her neck. Roy ignored his sister, and began banging again. Alan, the oldest sibling strolled into his little brother's room. "See you later, going to meet Luna." Alan grinned. He waved goodbye to his brother, while he went towards the stairs. John, the third oldest walked by Roy's room. "Hey, wanna keep it down. Scott's trying to sleep, and Mum's knackered, she doesn't need him waking up." said John. Roy smiled, and placed the ball down. "So, when are you going to meet up with Gail?" asked a very curious Roy. John blushed, as he shut his brother's door. "Works every time." smirked Roy. He took out his phone and went onto the M-Face. "What the hell?" he asked. His best friend, Raven has currently added a status to sad, and depressed. He dialled her phone-number, and awaited for her voice. "What is it!" she snapped. Her nose was running. "What's the deal with the status?" asked Roy. "Well, since I got ready for a lovely date today, Mr I'm-too-popular dumped me!" she cried, into a tissue. "What Fran? The air-head?" asked Roy. He almost laughed. "Yes!" shouted Raven. Her mother shouted in the back-ground. "Keep it down!" she said. Raven rolled her eyes. "Well, he's an asshole if you ask me. I never liked him." proclaimed Roy. "Sorry Roy, but I'm not in the mood for rants. If you excuse me, I have to get some more ice-cream." sniffed Raven. The line went dead, and Roy was left sitting in his bedroom alone. "That prick! I need to get him to go back out with her, before she becomes like this for weeks." he said out loud. He stood up from his bed, and was about to make his way to the door, when a thought struck his mind. If Fran has dumped Raven, maybe it's a chance for him to tell her, his true feelings. "But she'll rather go for a prick like him, than me." he said sadly. His sister sat at the door. "How would you know, if you haven't asked her." she said. "Nellie, stop listening to my conversations with myself." Roy said, as he punched his door lightly. "Do you know how crazy that sound from your mouth." Nellie said, while laughing. She stood up from the ground and went to her room. Roy began thinking of ways to tell Raven, but they all ended in disaster, maybe he wasn't meant to tell her.
"Rae get up!" banged Raven's oldest brother, Tommy (Junior). He was already for school, with his blue t-shirt, and grey shorts, that stopped at his knees. "No!" she shouted. He walked into her room, and pulled the covers off. "What if I was naked, you idiot!" she screamed, while crying into her pillow. "Well lucky you aren't, otherwise I would be dead." he replied. He opened her wardrobe, and grabbed a white top, a grey cardigan and blue denim shorts. "Now get dress! He's only a boy, you'll get over him." he demanded. She rolled her eyes, as she cried more. Her mother pinched the top of her nose. After hearing the next-door neighbour's dog bark all night, she needed a lie down. "Please get up." she asked nicely. Raven did not move. "Raven Penny Gilligan move your ass, before I kick it." she shouted. The headache worsened. Lilly almost fell down onto Raven's carpet. Raven jumped up from her bed, and grabbed hold of her mother's arms. "Mum, are you alright?" she asked. "Yes, I'm fine. Not enough sleep I suppose." her mother replied. Raven nodded, and took her to her bedroom. When her mother was back in her bed, Raven strolled back into her room and got changed. "You're going to miss the bus!" shouted Marcus. Raven sprinted down to the stairs, got a bit of burnt toast, and ran to the bus. She munched on the bus, with stares on her. "Hey." said Roy. Raven sat a seat behind him. Fran walked on the bus, linking hands with Gemma. Raven almost threw her toast at him. "Now, now. Toast is not the answer." laughed Roy, as he took turned towards her. "Yeah, whatever." she said grumpily. The bus stopped outside the High school, and hundreds of students piled into the building.
The classroom was no longer empty. Many students strolled into the Maths classroom. "Hey, Fran." smiled a girl, with braces. Her long blonde hair was tied up in a pony, with a bow. "Hey." he replied coolly. Gemma however growled at the girl. No other girl was going to take her man. Her black top stopped above her stomach, and showed off her blue sparkly belly-button piercing. Raven took in some air. She couldn't stand it any longer. She was about to say something to Gemma, when Roy stopped her. "I have something to tell you Raven." said Roy. He grabbed her hand, and took her over to the window. "I've been in love with you for so long, I can't remember." he whispered into her ear. She stood still. "Really?" she asked, while shaking. "Yes." he said, as he nodded. "Is this a joke?" she asked. Raven crossed her arms over her chest. "Nope. I love the way you get angry, every time Marcus beats you at video-games. I love your long brown hair, that sways in the sun beautifully. And above all I love your smile, it's the most amazing thing I've ever seen." he replied, as he pulled her chin up, so her eyes could stare into his. "Do you promise?" she asked, as she blushed. A few students stared at them, wondering what was happening. "I promise, and I won't break your break like Mr dickhead over there." he whispered back. She giggled, as the teacher walked into the classroom. Roy quickly kissed her on the lips. She of course responded back. "These are for you." he whispered, as he kissed her cheek. He walked over to his seat, while Raven slowly made her way back to hers. A small box of chocolates, which were heart-shaped laid in her hands. "I love you too." she said to herself, as the teacher began the lesson. A few ignored him, while others took full notice and jotted down the equations. I now truly know what my real feelings are. Roy watch out, because I'm a handful when it comes to being someone's girlfriend, thought Raven. She silently laughed to herself. Oh boy, Roy will have to show what she means to him, and it won't be easy, she is one Drama Princess.
How was it?.. Anyway I will be going back to school this Tuesday, so I'm guessing I didn't finish this story then.. Aw well, so without further ado I would like to say that I have finished this chapter, even though it's short, but tough that's the way it goes. Also, thought of great ideas for my story, Dumbledore's story, which is about a girl before Harry was born, was suppose to be the one to retrieve a certain book for the Dark Lord, but after complications she turns into the Phoenix, Fawkes. Dumbledore calls her a him, because she somehow either gets to be born again, or he says that so Voldemort, and her Aunt wouldn't come looking. But it's Harry telling the story, to his young son, who is a day or a week away from going to Hogwarts. Anyway please review, and tell me if you like the sound of my Harry Potter story?..
