After her final check up, Raven was sent home with Stephen. It was 7:30pm when they got back.
"Want to watch a documentary about dinosaurs?" Stephen asked.
"Yeah. But I thought you were going home?" She replied.
"Well, Abby told me to keep you out of trouble. So I am staying here for a few days."
"Ok!" Raven agreed as they snuggled down and watched the documentary.

Raven woke up to Stephen moving off the sofa to answer the door. Raven got up and grabbed her crutches to see who it was. It was Connor.
"Hi Stephen, Raven. Where's Abby?" He quickly said.
"I'll go get her." Raven mumbled, half asleep. She knocked on Abby's bedroom door and threatened that if she didn't get up, she would go instead. Abby came barging out of the door five minutes later.
"I'll be home about 5, so no tagging along. And if I'm late call Jenny Lewis on her mobile, okay?" Raven nodded as Abby left.
Stephen and Raven cuddled up and watched a few more episodes.

Later she got up and got changed into a longish blue shirt with a brown belt and black leggings. They had lunch and then watched some Jeremy Kyle for fun. It was 6:00pm when Raven awoke after dozing off.
"Abby's late!" Raven cried jumping off the sofa, "Abby's never late! I'm calling Jenny."
The phone rang twice before she picked up,
"Hello, who is this?" Jenny said on the other side.
"Hey Jenny it's me Raven. I just wanted to know where Abby is."
"She has been in a minor accident and is not harmed in anyway apart from a cut on her arm. Bye!" She quickly said, hanging up. Raven slumped down on the sofa as Stephen moved up. She shook her head and waited for Abby.

Two hours later, she returned with Connor.
"He has a minor concussion so therefore is crashing for tonight," Abby said, "and he is sleeping on the sofa."
"But where is Stephen sleeping?" Connor asked, dizzy.
"Don't worry, I have a sofa in my room he can crash on." Raven piped up.
UThey trudged into Raven's bedroom. They hopped onto her bed and put Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets on. Eventually they both dozed off into a deep sleep.

The next day was boring. No anomalies. No accidents. Nothing. Just a day of watching tv with Stephen. That part was not so boring.
"Do you want to be my girlfriend, Raven Black Maitland?" He asked politely.
"Of course I do, Stephen Hart." She said. They burst out laughing after pulling faces at each other. Soon enough, Abby and Connor came home.
