Awakening
Chapter 4 - Sleepovers and Rainstorms
 
-
 
It was around 5 and Raven was impatiently trying to find stuff to stick in her large black bag for staying at Skye's. She had the essentials so far, underwear and such. The sad reality of the situation was that Raven had never been to a Sleepover in her life and wasn't quite sure what was expected of her.
`What else should I bring!!!? ?'
“Ahhh” she screamed in frustration.
“What do I need? Clothes, yea I get that but what else. Maybe I should watch more teenage movies?...nah!”
Just then her mobile rang. She had bought it not long after she arrived; her father hadn't cared to give his view. She knew they could afford it, heck they could afford hell more than one then again she only needed one. She wondered about people that owned more than one mobile. `What's the point in that' she thought absently while picking up her phone and smiling fondly as Paige's cheerful face smiled back at her on the screen.
 
“Hey Paigy”
“Ello Rave. What's up? Was wondering if you needed a ride to Skye's?”
“You know that would be cool especially cause I don't have a clue where she lives” she laughed lightly, “um I was kinda wondering something” her voice had become hesitant and the ever intuitive Paige noticed instantly.
“You don't know what to bring?”
“Spot on. I swear your psychic sometimes.” she laughed though part of her wasn't really kidding.
Paige chuckled in reply. “Bring yourself, that's all we need”
“Need? You make it sound like your gonna do me.”
“Raven, I mean this in the nicest possible way but you've been spending waaay too much time with Tala”
“Perhaps. Maybe I should lock him in a room to save my naivety or what's left of it. Ohh better plan I'll lock you in there with him”
Raven smirked in a proud manner as the voice on the other side of the line had gone quiet. Raven had to admit she liked to wind up Paige when it concerned Tala. The girl was clearly crushing on him. Though Raven was worried, Paige was the first girl to speak to Raven when she had some to Bancroft high, or even Rawson for that matter. She had become a great friend and Raven didn't want to see her get hurt. Nevertheless with the overprotective Skye at hand things would be ok. Anyway Tala was good at heart; he wouldn't do anything to hurt one of his friends.
“Har har rave. Your utterly hilarious” was the reply after the pause, “seriously though. Just have some clothes for tomorrow. You can bring movies and music or whatever you like. Believe me Skye will have enough food. Her pantry is usually bursting with food”
There was giggling on the other end of the phone and Raven smiled, she was staving and the promise of food was very appealing.
“I'll drop by yours in twenty minutes, kay?”
 
“That's great, you still got my address?”
 
“Sure thing. Byes”
 
“Bye”
 
`Bring myself, well that's easy'
 
Grabbing her Black baggy pants for the following day plus several chains and a random belt followed by toothbrush and toothpaste, then some stripy socks which she had deemed her rainbow socks she was pretty much ready. She smiled amused as she noticed one of the few clean t's she had. It was a word T and one of her fav's though who knew why. She had bought it earlier in the week.
`I can imagine Tala would find it highly amusing'she thought.
Picking up some cd's she closed up her bag and made her way downstairs making sure to pick up her old black converse on her way.

“Shit, WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU…OW”
“Geez your such a wimp” murmured the red head.
“WHAT DID YOU FUCKING EXPECT? I TOLD YOU MY LEGS DON'T GO THAT WAY”
The boy laughed in reply, “Obviously not but your just unfit Skye”
The girl stuck out her tongue in reply, “what's with you and always trying to prove me wrong. When I told you I couldn't do the splits I fucking meant it” she replied seeming somewhat pissed off.
“I think you forget you're exactly the same. Always trying to prove people wrong, so don't start”
And so ensued a hearty battle between the two tickling totally allowed.
“Ha ha I've never seen you giggle so much Tala”
“Oh yea hysterical Rave” the red head muttered whilst removing the smaller girl from on top of him. “When did you guys get here?” he asked as he noticed Paige.
“Just a moment ago, but please don't let us interrupt. It was pretty amusing” raven couldn't help but smile, Tala was pretty tall compared to Skye who was only 5'4 and to see her pin him so easily well, it was laughable.
Standing up, Skye went to greet her two friends nudging Tala on the way. “Sorry he was feeling lonely and decided to join us.” She declared all the while sending her friend a sympathetic look.
“Hey” he replied resentfully, “For your information she called me over. Her ps2 broke and as per usual she called. I told you she uses me” he spoke playfully ignoring the light punch Skye had aimed at him.
It didn't take Raven long to realise that the once hyper Paige was looking uncomfortable and it didn't take a genius to figure out why. Pulling the girl aside she called out to the two childhood friends,
“I'm just gonna put out bags in your room Skye” without waiting for an answer she pulled the blonde girl aside letting her wordlessly lead her to what she assumed was Skye's room.
 
And shit was it a room! Unlike her own it had personality bouncing wildly off the walls. It screamed style yet individuality. It was a large room, the walls different colours and shades. The wall where the door was was an aqua colour and towards the corner it became waves with different colours splashed throughout. The wall to the left had Skye's bed against it, which happened to be a faded silver four poster; the colour of choice for that wall was pink with different squares of white and black which each contained some kind of fabric cut outs. `Something to do with Skye's fondness for fashion I guess'the next wall which had her window was blue and simple with a border of paisley pattern in white at the top and the last remaining wall which had another door was a pale peach shade, the barest wall in her room. It was a very happening room to say the least and Raven couldn't help but stand in shock for several moments. It was…`amazing'
“Yes, it's a bit wild isn't it” murmured Paige a smile upon her lips though false.
“It is but I like it, even the peach. Where does that door lead?”
“Oh her closet, though I don't recommend you enter. Or anyone, it's pretty scary in there.” She said with a giggle.
“Hmm I'll take your word for it. Sooo going to tell me why you're so distant or shall I tell you what I think?”
Paige looked up as if about to feign some kind of innocence and confusion however she had no such luck when she saw the knowing look on her friends face.
“I don't think I want to say. I'm not really sure myself” she muttered hesitantly.
“Do you want something to happen?”
On some levels the look on her friends face was priceless but considering her state of turmoil Raven held back the small laugh she knew she would have emitted.
“NO. With what? What do you mean?”
Now she smiled, “Don't play naïve with me Paige Everard. In the time I've known you I like to think I've learned something.”
The blonde smiled at the girl as if giving up.
“Fine, fine, fine” she said with a sigh.
 
“Yes I suppose he is but…” before the midnight haired girl could continue she was pushed back onto the bed by her now red faced friend.
“That's not…funny! Raven I'm just tired of this whole…thing! I don't mean to like him and I most certainly never planned to! I just…I…”
“…Cant help how you feel” suggested Raven.
Covering her head the blonde slumped onto the bed then groaned in frustration, “Doesn't help that he's always around”
“So that's why you were quiet, or should I say annoyed. Truth is Paige-y I don't think you're really all that annoyed at all. Besides he's Skye's best friend and goes to your school, he's also in several of your classes so what do you expect?”
“You're not helping” was the muffled words heard from beneath the bundle of limbs and hair.
 
“YOU GUYS COMING TO GET YOUR ASSED KICKED?”
At this Paige looked up, “see what I mean. Everywhere” She had made sure to put extra effort into the pronunciation of `everywhere'.
“He talking about the game system? Cause if he is he got no chance.” With a smile Raven pulled the disgruntled Paige from the bed, “You know in situations like this you just gotta hold your head high and kick some ps2 ass oh and shake that fine boo-tay!”
“Hunnie when have you experienced one of these situations?” Paige said with a smile her mood instantly lighter.
“I watch TV. Besides I think I was a girl guru in a past life” she muttered absently.
“Yea and I was a psycho killer” the shorter girl replied with a laugh leaving Raven in the room to call back ungraciously, “You know I can believe that!”

About 3 hours later it was nine o clock and things had been going…well. After many games and `ass whoopings' Raven had been declared the champion much to Skye's discontent. Nevertheless she was happy as long as Tala had been beaten. The four teens currently sat in the spare room, which had been dubbed `Skye's uber cool games room', surrounded by all sorts of deliciously high in sugar foods. Along with drinks and chips. The room itself was silver and black which actually suited its use, it had two black sofas and one armchair which was currently claimed by Raven whilst Paige sat with one whole sofa to herself along with Tala on the opposite one and Skye was lying on the floor surrounded by cushions looking quite content. Of course she did have most of the food beside her including a purple bowl of chips which sat on her stomach.
“Whatcha wanna doooo?”
Raising his head to show some kind of acknowledgment Tala looked down at his friend and couldn't help but laugh, “You know you're covered in crumbs and gummy bears”
As if just noticing, the other 2 girls laughed at the mess there friend had made as said girl sat up grinning madly and decided to chuck the gummy bears at her guests laughing hysterically as they dived behind there seats ready to start the gummy war!
 
“Hmm perhaps this wasn't the best idea. I hope you plan to clean this up Skye”
The teens turned to see Caolan looking unimpressed at the mess they had made.
`Damn I thought I had escaped her'Raven thought as she slouched further behind the sofa. What she did not expect was Caolan, without looking, to address her.
“Hello Raven, it's lovely to see you too”
“Haha, yes it...is” mumbled the 17 year old whose red thoughts were all that remained to be seen.
“Well I suppose I can't take this back…” the woman paused watching as all the teens curiously looked to her, she knew how to get their attention.
Skye cautiously stood, “Leave your offerings of peace and the war shall cease”
Caolan shook her head at her daughter's lunacy and fully entered the room dodging the food on the floor with a sigh she did however smile when she saw the eyes in the room brighten.
“I figured margarita would be the safest bet since I didn't know what you all like” she spoke softly as she placed two pizza boxes on the small table in the centre of the room. It had surprised Raven to see the woman act like…well a normal mother. Or at least what she imagined one to be like. It made her curious as to why Skye did have some sort of spite against the woman though she knew it wasn't severe she still wondered.
Before leaving the room Caolan turned back to the youths, “And please don't make more…uh its wasted on you” she turned ready to leave”
“Thanks”
Finally leaving the room she smiled, at least the girl has manners.
 
Raven turned back to see her friends already tucking in with a sigh she joined them.
“MARGARETTA TASTES MUCH SWEETA AFTA…give me a word you guys” Skye sung showing her clear love for pizza.
“Zeeta?”
“Meeta?”
“Cheeta?”
“Hmm that'll do though cheetah prob don't taste so good”
“Girl, anyone ever told you you need help” Tala spoke fondly ruffling the girl's hair.
“Many a time…I just…choose to ignore them” Skye said between slices of pizza.
“Shit, anyone notice it's raining?”
Tala looked up to the blonde standing against the window. Getting up he stood behind her looking out at the rain.
“Boy, its really coming down hard” he said with a smirk.
“TALA YOU SICK FUCK!”
“A fuck nonetheless Skye!”
Paige had become clueless to the conversation all she was currently aware of was Tala's breath on the back of her neck, it was strangely cold. She didn't quite understand why and she couldn't help but feel all the more pulled towards him. If she didn't watch herself she would fall right into him. Trying to regain some kind of logical thinking she turned round and smiled.
“Well I feel sorry for anyone caught in that. Looks like there could be a rainstorm.”
“Yea I think you're right” he replied with a smile.
`Shit quit blushing, quit it!!!'
Paige hastily turned using the excuse of wanting more pizza.
Raven smiled to herself, `Perhaps there is something there'
“OOOHH I have an amazing ideaaa!” squealed Skye in delight.
“And what would that be `oh over excited one'” Raven said with a smile at her friends hyper attitude.
“We should make ice-cream! I love making ice-cream when it's raining, it kinda of a tradition” she said whilst picking up her mobile.
“Ice cream? Why do you need a phone and why make it when you can buy it?”
“It's not the same Raven!! I'm calling Kai, we kinda started it like, 6 years ago and besides, he makes the ice cream I'm shit!”
“I didn't realise you guys were close?”
“Huh, oh yea. Before Paige moved here bout 5 years was it” looking to the girl for confirmation, “well yea anyways it was we three I guess you could say.” She spoke softly as if reminiscing. Raven couldn't help but smile. “Yep anyways then we became more of a group as we got older and then Paige came” as she said the girls name she made a point of showing her joy and jumped on her friend.
“Shit Skye!”
“Oh and of course…”
Raven looked cautiously at the girl in front of her.
“What you thinking?”
“NOW WE HAVE YOOOU TOOO!” Skye took it upon herself to grab her remaining friend and pull them into a restrictive bear hug smiling madly.
“Love you too but you're kinda, squishing me” was the breathless whisper from Raven.
“Ugh, sorry”
“Well do you really expect him to come in this weather?”
“Yes, I doo. Besides if I know him he'll be halfway here already”
“You mean every time it rains he shows up?”
“Don't be daft we only do it once a fortnight as long as it doesn't rain too much. I remember once when we first started it rained every night for a week. God we were soo sick. I think it was an ice cream overload!”
It was strange to think of Kai being part of such a tradition then again did she really know that much about him. So far he was this quiet, broody guy who at the same time could come across as arrogant and…funny.
“Hey Kai”
Skye had already dialled his number and was currently leaning against the window.
“Look outside…Just because!”
“See told you. When do you finish. Kay”
“…half an hour. That's cool. Just Tala, Paige and Raven. Yea. Yea. Kay see you later! Byeees…what, I will not calm down!”
Her friends laughed hearing her last line.
“Told you you were hyper. You even sound it!”
“yea yea, come on lets clean up this shithole” turning she started picking up chips and gummy bears leaving her three friends standing wordlessly.
Leaning into the tall red head Raven whispered, “She's kidding right?”
“…I don't think so”
The three teens groaned before cleaning up their mess.

Twenty minutes later Skye sat in her kitchen getting out some supplies while the remaining teens sat watching some Spanish show pretending to know every word said. Raven happily translated though it was most likely far from what the characters were actually saying. Paige for one found this most amusing and so joined in on the new `game'. Tala couldn't help but laugh as the girls made out a dirty affair and strange relationships hinting on incest whilst murders were out to get the only virgin left in the show. It was a very entertaining sight to see. The group would have happily continued if it wasn't for the surprised voice from their friend in the kitchen.
“Shit Kai you're soaked! Where's your car”
“Getting fixed. I'm got the bus only to learn it stops at the bottom of this housing…area… or whatever.”
“Well you should have said. Tala coulda picked you up”
“Nice to know you care Skye” the disgruntled boy replied as the bag of choc chips and other delights were removing from his arms.
“I told you, she uses guys” Tala commented as he and the other girls entered the kitchen.
“What else am I suppose to do with them” she asked quizzically.
“Funny Skye. I almost forgot to give you something” noted Kai.
The girl turned a grin forming on her small pink lips. “Oh give it here!”
The boy smirked with a strange glint in his eye as he approached the shorter girl.
“Wha…what are you doing?”
“Oh just giving you your…HUG!”
The blue haired teen lunged at the girl pulling her into a bear hug and soaking her in the process.
“AHHH GET OFF ME! NOW IM ALL FUCKING WET”
“I've heard Kai has that effect”
At Tala's comment they all looked at him somewhat disturbed expressions though Skye could only remark that he was being sick.
“Yea cause your part of his fan club huh” added the small and now wet girl.
“Man I'm gonna have to change my T now” she mumbled half heartedly whilst Kai pointed to himself as if stating the obvious.
“Hey you know where your stuff is from last time. Go help yourself. Caolan washed it as she does every piece of clothing she can get her hands on.”
`Sounds like there used to having him round. Its strange I never realised they were so close. But then againit makes sense they seem to get on and actually do talk a lot in school. But if Caolan lets him stay she must like him. If that's the case then whyon the first day did he say he was always getting into trouble with her?God this is utterly confusing, sometimes I think too much! Neverthelessmaybe there like Antonio and Luciaand having some dirty student teacher relationship.' The girl shuddered, `then again maybe we were watching that show there for tooo long'
“You alright?”
The girl gasped not noticing `Antonio'…was currently standing right in front of her. He really was soaked; water ran down his hair, some of which dropped onto the tip of his nose. He was so close she could make out droplets that seemed to cling onto his eyelashes, eyelashes that framed those cloudy yet deep dark crimson eyes.
`Focus. HELLOOOO. Wake up' she mentally slapped herself hoping he didn't notice her distraction.
“Yea sure, great just…spacey”
`SPACEY, WHAT KIND OF DIPSHIT ARE YOU? Geez I'moff outa here, ciao!' and with that the little Raven that resided in her head was gone leaving her to fend for herself.
“Right, you do that a lot. Just so you know it's kinda weird”
Raven sighed watching as the older teen walked into the hall to get dry clothes, or at least that's what she assumed he was doing.
“Well yea so ICE-CREAM soon but since he's getting changed I'm going to go get a dry T.”
Raven noticed Tala and Paige standing around looking somewhat discomfited and deciding it would be the best thing to do Raven spoke up with a smile.
“Where's the bathroom?”
Paige looked up panicked as if saying `Don't leave me'
Tala however looked up and happily answered pointing out that it was upstairs and one of the last doors at the end of the hall.
Grinning madly in a fashion that resembled one of Skye's insane grins Raven dashed out through the hall and up the stairs.
Paige was left standing in a way which showed her discomfort. She moved to one of the breakfast bar chair hoping to hide her current feeling. `Why am I acting so stupid?We'vebeen friends for ages, why do I have to go and mess that up. I can't even be normal around him anymore.I'msuch an idiot!' the blonde mentally scolded herself.
“Paige?”
She looked up somewhat sullenly though she tried desperately to hide it with a smile, however Raven wasn't the only who could tell when her smiles were false.
“Is something wrong because you've been acting…well you haven't been yourself recently and maybe it's just me but I don't think so. If there's anything wrong you can tell me. During his short speech he had leaned forward trying to be comforting. He had known Paige long enough to know that she hadn't been acting like herself and he wouldn't lie, it worried him.
Paige didn't know how to react. Her head seemed to be buzzing with excuses or something to say, Anything to say! Alas nothing. She began to mumble incoherently as her chest began to rise at an increased pace. After a while she finally decided to speak up just so he wouldn't notice how she looked at everything but him.
“I don't have a clue what you mean, I'm…perfectly fine” she said as she shuffled of the chair and moved round to the opposite side of the breakfast bar, as if distancing herself. She didn't realise how that small action would affect her friend. And he was that, her friend.
“I see” he mumbled in a despondent tone “I'm going to see what's taking Skye then” and with that Paige was left in the kitchen alone and wondering just what she had done to make him seem so dejected. `Hecan'texpect me to tell him everything…he just…can't!'

“Last on the, no…3rd from the end…hmm. Why cant people label there doors?” Raven was having difficulties of her own.
“Raven Ashford in, The Quest for the Bathroom. Follow the adventures of the 17 year old girl as she embarks on a treacherous trip across great heights and distances to find…the long lost bathroom. Rating pg-13 as there is language we feel would be inappropriate for youths” she spoke in a dramatic tone full of sarcasm. She couldn't help but laugh at herself opening another door and finding a cupboard. “This house isn't that big!”
`Ahalast door, yaaas'
In her excitement the girl swung open the door with much enthusiasm declaring “FOUND IT” expecting to see her reward…however it wasn't quite the reward she expected.
Kai stood, in the centre of a large red bed room, his soaked navy shirt half way off. He continued to pull it off over his head before he turned to the surprised girl with an irritated yet amused look on his face.
“Yep, very weird indeed. May I ask just what you found?”
“…The bathroom” she replied rather mortified.
`Why is it I act fine around all the other guys but he, him…he's. Ahh annoying!'
He walked over to her despite his lack of shirt and leaned against the frame of the door. The remaining drips of water now fell from his face and rolled down his chest and kept distracting her from what he was saying.
“Sorry” she said unintelligibly.
“I said, and I'll say it slowly. The bathroom is through that door” he said whilst pointing across from her.
“Oh, well thanks” She turned back almost forgetting to insult him for questioning her intelligence but he was already closing the door, however what she did see left her with something else on her mind. Down his back were two large scars which were quite red, it made her uncomfortable as they looked fresh and she assumed he wouldn't have wanted her to see. But she did and like everything else she became curious and…worried. `Well just a little, I still don't even like the guy. I think'
“Girl you're hopeless. Go use the bathroom”
“Waa” raven jumped in surprise turning to see Skye smiling at her, though it wasn't manically just creepy and with a hint of knowingness something Raven Did Not understand.
“Hopeless, what?”
Skye pushed her friend in the direction of the bathroom.
“You know I would just ignore Kai, he's well he's not really interested in people. Don't go there Hun” she said then closed the door leaving Raven at the other side feeling stunned and confused, `No surprise there'.
“NOW ICE CREAM!” Skye screamed ecstatically while grabbing Kai and running down the stairs making sure to grab a surprised Tala on the way.
