Thankfully, Sarah kept her promise and didn't hold the "Welcome To Kookhood" party that night. Raven and Sarah both were asleep by 8:00 PM. Rafe was consistently pacing around his room. He was still angry about Raven's new residency, and how it was inconveniently in his house. He did a line of coke then took a deep breath. He fell asleep earlier than normal too, because being asleep was easier than dealing with the anger that constantly flowed through his body. He couldn't get rid of her in his subconscious though either, these thoughts were different, they haunted him. They weren't the angry thoughts he mainly had, these were more lustful. He dreamt about Raven choking on his fingers while he roughly fucked her.

5:20 AM

"What the hell are you doing to me Raven," He whispered, rubbing his face.

Instead of falling back asleep, he got in the shower, hoping it would help him stop thinking about her. The hot water hit his skin, forming small water droplets that slightly reflected under the fluorescent bathroom light. His dream popped into his head again, he could even hear her moan his name, he could hear her gag on the fingers he had shoved down her throat. He squeezed his eyes shut and finished his shower. When he was done wrapped a towel around his waist, then walked to the kitchen. He saw that the guest bedroom door was cracked open but there was movement. Remembering that the guest bedroom was becoming Raven's room, anger rushed through him.

"JESUS CHRIST RAFE PUT SOME FUCKING CLOTHES ON!" Raven yelled accidentally bumping into him leaving the room.

"Shut up!" He grabbed her, putting a hand over her mouth.

Her heart beat quickly, out of fear but also another feeling. She didn't know how to recognize it, but she wasn't fully pissed that she was being silenced by his hand.

"You're going to fucking wake Sarah up, and her annoying ass is the last thing I wanna deal with," He uncovered her mouth and she moved away from him quickly.

"Sorry, wasn't expecting you to be lurking right outside of the room," She smirked at him, and the same thought snuck its way up like yesterday, he wanted to fuck that smirk right off of her face.

He grabbed her jaw just like he did yesterday, causing her heart to skip a beat.

"Don't fucking smirk at me," His voice was tranquil but haunting.

"Or what," Raven was playing with fire at this point, she wanted to see how far she could push him.

"Or I'll fuck that smirk right off your goddamn face Raven Amber Routledge," He whispered in her ear, then released her jaw, walking down the stairs.

She stood there dumbfounded watching him walk away. How did he know her middle name? was the only holy question she had running through her head. She was frozen, he left her speechless. That was probably the hottest thing that has ever happened to her but she refused to let it make her feel anything because it was Rafe who said it to her. She retreated into the room and laid back in bed, staring at the ceiling. His words were repeating in her brain, like a broken record. She moved from her bed to the window, out to the balcony putting a hoodie on when she sat down. Nothing could beat the view of a sunrise on water, she always thought it was so magical, it helped her remember there was some good in the world. She zoned out on the gorgeous sky that she didn't notice Sarah had filled the spot next to her. She rested her head on Raven's shoulder causing her to jump out of her skin.

"SORRY! Sorry! I'm sorry I scared you," She laughed.

"No, no, it's okay, I promise," Raven laughed with Sarah, she wished she could tell her what Rafe had said this morning, but he wasn't just a random guy, he was Sarah's brother.

That pissed Raven off even more, you would think they had a rule on what friends of the siblings were off-limits or something. The sun finally rose and the two girls went back in through the window. They went downstairs to get breakfast, deciding on cereal, something simple, something Raven was used to.

"Get out of my way," Rafe placed his hands on Raven's hips moving her to the side to get to the fridge.

"Don't fucking touch me," She scowled at him.

He didn't respond, he wanted to, but he thought it was best to keep his thoughts to himself. He wasn't expecting to be as bold as he was this morning, but at least he stood his ground. He left the kitchen without saying another word which Raven appreciated, she was grateful, for once, Rafe kept his fucking mouth shut.

"He's so fucking strange," Sarah shook her head.

"Yeah, you're telling me," Raven laughed, letting the thought of what he said this morning creep back up.

"I'm excited about your party tonight, we gotta find something for you to wear, something hot, sexy, and shows off your girls," She grinned.

"I thought it was gonna be a normal party?" Raven questioned.

"No kook party is a normal party, Raven, you should know this, you go to countless of them," Topper walked into the kitchen from the front door.

"I mean I know that, I meant normal as in kook normal," She laughed.

"That doesn't mean you don't need to look hot, it's your party," Sarah smiled.

"Yeah I know, you're right," Raven took the last bite of her cereal and rinsed it, putting it into the dishwasher.

Sarah followed Raven's actions. Right after her, Topper, and Raven went into Sarah's room. Topper had made himself comfortable on Sarah's bed while Raven stood there rather awkwardly.

"We're going to have a fashion show, you and Top stay here, I'm going to go lay out some outfits that we bought yesterday, then you can take your pick," She grinned and walked into the other room where all of Raven's stuff is.

"I'm gonna miss waking your annoying ass up every afternoon," Topper laughed.

"Fuck you mean afternoon?"

"Raven, c'mon, we both know that you don't wake up before noon be real," The two teenagers laughed with each other.

"ALRIGHT ALL READY!" Sarah ran back into the room.

"Damn, you're quick," Raven laughed, causing Topper to smirk.

"Oh you're so gross get your mind out of the gutter," Raven rolled her eyes and walked into the other room, trying on the first outfit, "YOU KNOW SARAH, I DON'T SEE THE POINT OF ME TRYING THEM ON IF YOU CAN JUST PICK ONE FOR ME!" I yelled while putting on the first outfit.

It was a dark green low v-neck, laced-up crop, and a black mini skirt. Raven already really liked this one because the green brought out her eyes. She walked into Sarah's room and did a small spin.

"Oh I like this one, it'll be a hard decision to make," Sarah looked at the outfit thoroughly, "spin again?" Raven spun slowly again, then stopped facing her and Topper again, "What do you think Top?"

"I think it's nice," Topper didn't look up from his phone, he was playing a game.

"You're not even- TOPPER. What do you think?" Sarah took his phone out of his hand and he sighed.

"I think it looks nice," He nodded, not giving in to the effort Sarah wanted from him, causing Raven to start laughing.

"Oh my god, go hang out with Rafe," Sarah pushed him out of the room and rolled her eyes, "Boys just don't understand the intricate process of picking an outfit."

Raven didn't think she understood either, during the summer she lived in bikinis and jean shorts, because she was constantly at the beach.

"Go try on the next outfit," She waved her away.

"We're still doing the fashion show?"

"Yes. Now go," Sarah pushed her out of the room, both girls laughing.
