After Ken and Ravenna bought their tickets for prom, nothing else happened really. The week went by quickly without much commotion. On Saturday, though, Ken went on an outing with his dad. So Ravenna was free to have a slumber party with the rest of the guys and Iris. Too bad it didn't turn out as they had hoped. Lysander had to practice for a talent show, Iris was working at a soup kitchen, the twins had just gotten a new game, and Nathaniel was busy with prom planning. So it was just she and Castiel.

They discussed several ideas and plans for what they should do. After baking cookies and dressing up a bit, they headed to his uncle's club for karaoke. Rave went up first, singing "The Drug In Me Is You" by Falling In Reverse. Castiel smiled up at her the entire time, imagining she was singing to him alone. She was so passionate and danced to the music perfectly. When it was over, she hopped from the stage into his arms, passing the microphone like a baton.

His song was "C'est Pas Si Loin (This is not so far)" by The Bunny The Bear. He sang the soft parts to her, caressing her face and smiling lovingly at her. The louder, screaming parts were shouted towards the rest of the people. They erupted in cheers and applause as he finished. Ravenna hugged him tightly.

"That was awesome! The best yet!"

"You weren't so bad yourself."

"You really think so?" she smiled up at him hopefully.

"Y-yeah! Why would I lie?" A light blush fell over his cheeks.

Rave giggled and grinned, lighting up her entire face. Castiel gasped, taking all of his energy to not kiss her right there.

"You don't look too good, wanna go?"

"Uh, yeah, sure."

They made their way out of the club quickly and went back to his house. The next hour was spent playing night Frisbee with his dog, Demon. She tired out first, opting to watch them play for a while. Cass relaxed a lot more when he played with his dog. He carried her in, thinking she was asleep, when he was done. Ravenna looked so beautiful and fragile in his arms.

Setting her on his bed, Castiel watched her lovingly. His feelings swelled in his chest like they always did when he saw her. Feelings that had been there since he had first laid eyes on her. That day would brand his memory forever.

It was a bright, warm April day two years prior. The kind of day he used to hate. Castiel was sitting in the courtyard, when an angel in a black star t-shirt bounced up to him.

"Hi! I'm Ravenna Christophe, the new transfer student."

"Uh…hi. I'm Castiel."

"No last name? Very mysterious. Any who, do you know who those three idiots that seem to own the halls are?"

"You mean Amber and her friends."

"Yeah, they suck! They suck 1D!"

Castiel busted out laughing at her word play. He was absolutely smitten and it had only been five minutes.

"By the way, lovin' the shirt."

"Oh yeah, who is it then?"

"Skeletal Crow. It's the art from their debut album."

Okay, now he was smitten.

"That's pretty good. Do you listen to them much?"

"Listen to them? I was there when they drew the prototype."

Castiel gawked silently down at this amazing girl.

"You know SC?"

"My big brother is the drummer."

He was seriously meeting the baby sister that the drummer/guitarist, Ink Dredd , talked about sometimes during interviews. Castiel was about to ask her out so they could talk more, but was interrupted.

"Rave!"

"Kenny!"

A short boy in thick glasses ran to her with a huge, goofy grin. They obviously knew each other well. As the two friends spoke, Cass thought of how to ask her out. His chance never came.

Snapping back to reality, Castiel sat beside Ravenna carefully. His fingertips traced her cheeks to satisfy his need to feel her.

"If only I wasn't such an idiot, you'd be mine. I could make you so happy, if only I had a chance to prove that I'm the better choice for you. But it's too late now. That wimp stole you right from under my nose. I wish you knew just how I felt."

Sighing softly, he kissed her cheek and stripped off his shirt. Little did he know, Rave wasn't sleeping. She had heard everything he had said and now conflict was brewing deep within her. How was she supposed to know that he liked her? He'd never shown it before.

I'm so confused. I'll sleep on it. Maybe then I'll have the answer.

Sighing softly, she tried to relax. Chuckling, he laid down and slid an arm around her. It felt so nice and safe that she moved closer.

The next morning, Castiel woke up alone. Tossing on a shirt, he ran through the house in search of her. Ravenna was in the kitchen making eggs and bacon. Nathaniel, Lysander, Alexy, Armin, and Leigh were all gathered around the table waiting for food.

"What the hell are you all doin' in my house?!"

"P-please don't be mad. I let them in. They were camped out on the lawn this morning and I couldn't just leave them there," she gave him the look that they both knew he couldn't resist.

"S-sure you could've. But that wouldn't have been nice, I know, I know."

Lysander made a whipping sound and Castiel glared at him.

"Oh, shut up!"

After making an entire package of bacon, a dozen eggs, and twenty waffles, Ravenna set the food on the table.

"Ready. Set. Dig in!"

The boys all tore into the food ravenously, freezing when she went in to get her plate. She watched them in delight as she ate. The looks of satisfaction when they had cleared all of the food swelled her heart with pride. Until, they attempted to sneak out.

"Where do you boys think you're going?"she called sternly.

"H-home?" Alexy whimpered hopefully.

"Wrong answer. Castiel and I will not be the only ones cleaning up. Nathaniel, Lysander, dishes. Alexy, Armin, table. Leigh, sweep."

"Yes, ma'am…"

They hurried to do as they were told while Cass and Ravenna went out to walk Demon for a bit. Yup, it was just another Sunday.
