A Place Of Their Own

Chapter 3: Lunch

                                  Raven had tried her best to make herself comfortable on the bleachers but her wings and tail kept getting in the way so she watched from the top of a nearby tree. Liam and his brother seemed to be doing a wonderful job with their team since they were winning 10 to none. At around the bottom of the 8th inning Raven got a text from Soda.

              Soda: Hey, sorry bout earlier

              Raven: whatever its fine now, but i wont be home 4 a while

              Soda: Y?

              Raven: Got a lunch date

             With that Raven left Soda to ponder her mystery date, not answering her text asking who with. She continued to watch the small baseball players, occasionally stealing a glance at Liam only to find him staring back. Every time this happened Raven would blush and quickly look away, causing Liam to chuckle. After the game Raven flew down from the tree to land infront of Liam.

             "That's convenient," he joked, giving a small chuckle. Raven giggled a bit to herself as well.

            "Well, it's a pretty big pain too. I can't even sit on the bleachers," Raven admitted looking towards the bleachers with a small hate in her eyes.

            "So where can we go for a lunch date then? Since you apparently can't sit properly," he quizzed. Raven thought for a moment.

            "Anywhere we can take our food outside or to go," Raven answered. Liam nodded and started to walk towards the exit of the park with Raven close behind. They ended up going to a nearby Sooubway (wait O.O) Subway and taking there food outside.

          "So where to go to eat these?" Liam asked. Raven smiled at him obviously planning something evil getting a confused look in return. Raven quickly swooped up, grabbed Liam by his arms and clumsily carried him into a tree to sit. She landed on the branch beside him and sat down with an evil grin on her face. Liam was still in shock from the sudden lack of ground under his feet, but he quickly regained his composer and glared at Raven.

          "That wasn't funny," Liam grumbled, making Raven burst out into laughter. They casually ate their food, giving quick remarks every now and then. When they finished Liam looked concerned. Raven grinned. 

         "What? Do you not want to be picked up again like a child being taken out of a car?" Raven joked.

         "No, not really," he said giving her a slight glare but in a joking manner.

        "Too bad". Raven repeated her steps to get him into the tree but a bit more unpredictably. She placed Liam back on the ground and giggled to herself still in the air. Liam turned and grabbed her arms gently pulling her towards him. This caught Raven off guard and she almost lost her balance in the air, but she continued to stay suspended in the air as Liam gently kissed her. When he pulled back Raven was completely shocked and unsure of what to do or say.

     "I'm sorry, I probably shouldn't have done that," he said rubbing the back of his neck. Raven pulled a piece of paper out of her pocket along with a pen and quickly scribbled something down. She handed it to Liam, pecked him on the cheek, and flew away towards her home. Liam was a bit confused until he looked at the paper Raven handed him.

                         Raven's number:
