Chapter Thirty-One

~Raven’s POV~

How had this happened? You know, for a while things seemed alright, like they were getting better, but then I woke up just in time to see everything turn to shit again. Once again I had lost whatever sort of family I had.

I took a deep breathe and grabbed my drink, ‘Come on Raven, get yourself together.’ I thought as I walked over to the piano. I set my glass down on top and sat down on the bench. I began to play whatever came to my mind. It started out alright, but the more I played, the more my hands shook and the more tears blurred my eyes.

When I missed a note I slammed my hands down on the keys before hunching over, ‘No, I am stronger than this. Stop it.’ I sat up and grabbed my drink, going to the kitchen. I finished my drink and just stared down at the glass before throwing it as hard as I could against the wall. As it broke into pieces I sank to the ground with a sob, the light bulbs around me shattered, sending me into darkness.

~Allison’s POV~

The whole ride to Lydia’s house was silent. I just kept hearing Raven’s words about telling Lydia what was going on, but it was safer if she didn’t know. When we pulled up to her house I sighed and turned to her, “I need you to promise that you won’t say anything about what just happened.”

She looked over at me and was quiet for a moment before speaking, “I’ll promise not to say anything about what just happened, if you can tell me what the hell just happened.” She was obviously still shaken and frustrated at not knowing what was going on.

“It’s… It’s kind of complicated,” I said, knowing it wasn’t the answer Lydia was looking for or needed.

“Well how about you start with why was Derek there?” She said softly, “Or where Jackson went, or what is wrong with Erica?” I let out a breathe and looked down, “Oh, do you need a minute to come up with a plausible lie?” She asked, sounding exasperated.

“Part of the reason why I’m asking is because Scott and I aren’t supposed to be seeing each other, okay?” I said, a bit of an edge to my voice, “So it’s better if you just keep what you know to yourself.”

“Fine,” Lydia said, looking a bit hurt and making me regret my tone immediately, “I’ll keep what I know about you and your boyfriend, which is nothing, to myself.” She grabbed her things and started to get out of the car.

“Hey,” I said, grabbing her arm, “He’s not just my boyfriend, you get that, right?” I asked softly.

“Let me go.” She said quietly.

“Just for one second, please, try and remember…”

“Remember what?!” She shouted in frustration.

“Remember what it feels like,” I said softly, “All of those times in school when you see him standing down the hall, and you cannot breathe until you’re with him.” I let out a breathe, “Or those times in class when you… you can’t stop looking at the clock because you know that he’s standing right out there waiting for you. Don’t you remember what that’s like?” I asked her, meeting her eyes.

She was quiet for a moment before shaking her head, “No.”

“What do you mean no?” I asked, confused, “You’ve had boyfriends.”

She shook her head again, “None like that.” She said before getting out of the car.
