Angel of Horror- Ben Barnes

People are strange

People are strange. That's the first thing Raven thought when she was walking on the red carpet one thing was, noticing people either posing funny as she tried not to giggle, someone making out in a public place, a very public place she might add as she had a disgusted look on her face, and people arguing. She was incredible nervous but very happy that she got to see her friends again
She noticed Charli, Billie and Quen as she walked over to them with a bright smile

"Well look who we have here! Just in the right time." Quen said as she smirked

"What do you mean be that?" Raven said as she raised her eyebrow

But then all three rolled their eyes and then Quen physically had to walk over to Raven and Move her so she could see herself

And when Raven realized. She saw Ben walking over with his friend group and ended up frowning as she wanted to physically Hide.

"Oh fucking hell." Raven muttered to herself as she noticed him

"See something you like?" Charli teased her friend

"I don't like men anymore, but I see it" Billie added as she looked at Ravens direction

"Oh fuck off. You all know I hate him" Raven replied

"That makes it more fun! More exiting the lore you could tell your children on how you met your father!" Quen said excitingly

Raven sighed as she realized they wouldn't give up so she just glared at her friends

"Okay! Let's change the subject, someone's in a grumpy mood today."  Billie muttered

She sent billie an appreciative smile while she said that, Raven was grateful for their friends but sometimes it was too much

"What are y'all's plans after the red carpet? Are you going to the party afterwards?" Well I know charli is gonna be there since she's the dj but what about you billie and Quen?" Raven asked her friends

"Well, I'm always down for a good party" Quen said

"Yeah, and always down for a few drinks and good food, and you know the release of me and Charlis song" Billie added and then whispered the last part

"Ah. I can't wait to hear it, gonna make sure that it's the new trend" She smirked as she said that

"Oh I agree with Raven here, the hottest song with the two hottest girls in the room" Quen Smirked

What Raven didn't realize is that when they were talking Ben just stood next to her while talking to Andrew Garfield, Timothée Chalamet and Florence Pugh while he were smiling but then when she and her friends were talking they sneakingly had moved her closer to him so she could talk with him

She felt someone bump into her as she felt the embarrassment in realizing who it was as she had a deep frown on her face

"Well don't you look rather happy to see me?" Ben said as he smirked while towering over her

The other friend noticed this as a sign to leave as they walked over to Ravens friends to watch the thing

Raven just glared at him "well I don't ever wanna see you"

"You wound me Raven you really do" Ben said dramatically

"Don't say my name Barnes." Raven muttered

He looked offended at her but just smiled at her

"So erm. Are you gonna go to the after party?" Raven said as she tried to make a conversation without making it awkward

Ben raised an eyebrow at that question and looked a bit nervous when she asked him something without being rude

"I'm not planning to murder you if that's what you're thinking" she blurted

"Are you really sure about that because earlier- if looks could kill I'd be dead by now" Ben joked

Raven just laughed at his comment but immediately stopped laughing when she realized what she did

"Wait! Did I manage to make the Raven! Laugh?" Ben teased

"Oh fuck off" she said as she looked away nervously

He just smiled at the sight as he moved his hands over to her and grabbed her chin so she could look at him

"What?!!" Raven said as she glared at him

"Much better. I'd rather want to see your pretty glare rather than you look away from me" He said as he smirked while still holding her chin as he stared at her deeply

"I- wait woah." Raven said nervously as she blushed a bit

She could hear her friends and his friends giggle at their interactions as she muttered a few curse words

"But from earlier, yes I'm going to the after party, instead of arguing to you wanna take a few drinks together" he said as he towered over her again making her blush

"Oh I'm sorry but I'm going with my friends, you and your friends could join tho." She said with a smile

"That would be nice yeah, see you soon Raven." He said as he looked at her up and down before leaving and then noting his friends to join him

Raven just stood still wondering what actually happened as she felt her friends walk over to her

"What was that all about? You hate him? My ass." Charli said as she looked confused

"I do hate him!" Raven muttered

"Denial is the river on Egypt." Quen said

"Well damn. My eyes are blessed after that situation" Billie Eilish joked

"Oh god, all of you three are crazy. Why does this keep happening" Raven Sighed
