~ RAVEN ~

Oh, my fucking goodness.

Kids were fucking exhausting.

Yeah, I'm never having kids.

Oh wait fuck, I do have a kid.

After eating, chasing, playing and laughing Marcella, Rocco and Luna-Pheonix had finally gone to sleep.

Now the rest of us were sitting in the living room savouring the silence. Christian's arm was wrapped around my shoulder, and it felt nice... comforting. All of a sudden Enzo stands up and grins, "Let's play truth or dare bitches!"

Christian's chest vibrates with a groan. Slowly everyone agrees, knowing they have nothing better to do.

"Fine, but we can't go to bed too late since those two bitches have school," I say pointing to Carina and Theo.

"Dagger you start," Enzo says. Dagger looks around at everyone before his eyes land on Christian. This is going to be good.

"Christian truth or dare?"

"Dare," Christian's voice is flat.

Dagger grins evilly. "I dare you to strip down to your jocks," Without hesitation, Christian pushes me off him and peels off his clothes. Carina looks away disgusted while Theo's mouth is wide open.

"Raven... you're keeping this ripped hottie all to yourself?!" Theo says shocked. I chuckle awkwardly.

Christian rolls his eyes and sits back down pulling me close to him. He tucks a piece of hair behind my ear his touch lingering a few seconds too long.

"Truth or dare Carina?" Christian says mischievously.

"Dare, I ain't no pussy bitch," She says snapping her fingers.

"I dare you to kiss anyone in this room," I roll my eyes.

This sneaky bitch was trying to get a reason to beat up Theo. Little does he know...

Carina walks towards me and calmly plants her lips on mine all the while we hold eye contact.

"Carina, what the fuck?! That's my fiancee!" Christian shouts softly. Carina steps away and looks at me.

We both burst out laughing, the look on everyone's face being priceless.

~*~*~*~

The night had not lasted long, Theo, Carina, Dagger and Enzo had all fallen asleep on the couch their limbs tangled.

Christian business himself by taking all the cups to the kitchen. I pull a blanket over the four of them and head up into Luna-Pheonix's room.

I push the door open to see three small bodies bunched up together. Luna is between Marcella and Rocco breathing deeply.

I walk up closer to them and plant kisses on all of their foreheads.

~*~*~*~

Hot water trickles down my face.

It burns.

But I like the pain.

I'm numb.

But I can't show it.

For the sake of my family.

They've already done so much for me, why put it on their shoulders? Why be a burden with my feelings?
