Raven and I walked out of the studio with our hands interlocked. I looked down at her and she was smiling as we walked to the car.

"Raven guess what." I said to her.

"What?" she said as she looked up at me. Her eyes were shimmering in the sunlight and she looked as happy as she could ever be.

"I love you." I said to her. I put my arm around her shoulder.

"I love you too." she said as she snuggled into my chest. I opened her door and let her get it. I then walked to my side and got in. I turned on Good Loving by Miguel and Ludacris. and took off in the direction of the mall. Raven and I were singing along to the song. I changed up Ludacris' part and sang it and Raven did Miguel's part. Our singing was on point. When we got to the mall, I spoiled the soul out of Raven. We went into all her favorite stores and I bought her almost everything I caught her look at twice. I had to make two trips in order to bring all the bags into her house. When I got upstairs Raven was taking off her sweater and shoes. I just kicked my shoes off and sat on the bed.

"You okay?" Raven laughed.

"Yeah, my feet just hurt." I said as a took off my pants. I had a pair of basketball shorts on underneath them. I then crawled underneath the covers. Raven put on a pair of cheetah print sleep shorts and a black tank top. She then got on her side of the bed and got underneath the covers. I turned on the tv and was watching True Life on MTV. After two hours I looked down at my chest to see that Raven was knocked out. I had my arm underneath her and she had her leg on top of me. It was 5:57 and I had to pee. I slid my arm from underneath her and moved her leg. Everybody was either just getting off of work or getting ready for Raven's party. It started at nine but it was probably a good forty five minute drive to the venue. I went into the bathroom and heard the front door open.

"BABIES, MOTHER BIRD IS HOME!" Maleeah yelled. This girl is always so hyped up for no reason. I shook my head and flushed the toilet. When I came out she was walking up the stairs. She had a kickkspott bag in her hand. Kickkspott was a place were you could get sold out or rare shoes when you missed the release date. The catch was that they sold by shoe size.

"Where's Raven?" she asked.

"She's sleep. What's that?" I said pointing to the bag she had.

"Come here, i'll show you." she said as she began walking in the direction of her room. She put her purse on the dresser then sat on her bed. I leaned on the wall. She pulled out a jordans shoe box.

"You ready???" she said as she rubbed the top of the box.

"Yup yup." I said as I nodded my head.

"Feast your eyes on these magnificent beauties." she said as she slowly lifted the top open and moved the paper to reveal a pair of custom 11s. The whole shoe was black but the bottom was gold. There were gold flower outlines on certain parts of the shoe. Even the jumpman was gold. I picked the shoe up and gazed at it.

"Oh my god, you got these for Raven?" I said inspecting the shoe. Maleeah smiled and nodded her head yes. "These fresh. Who did them?"

"I got the hook up." she said simply. I made a straight face at her and she started laughing.

"I got her this too." She said as she pulled out a versace crop hoodie that was black and gold.

"Aw my baby gone look good." I said smiling. "When should I wake her up to get ready?"

"Eh, six thirty-ish I guess. Its not like she gotta be there on time but she might wanna do her hair or something." Maleeah said as she took her shoes off. I nodded my head and walked out. I went downstairs and got a rice krispy treat from Raven's stash. I opened it before I got back into her room so that the noise wouldn't wake her. I watched tv for about twenty minutes then I pulled the covers off of her. Raven was asleep on her stomach with one leg at an angle and the other straight. One of her arms was underneath her pillow. I crawled on top of her and leaned into her ear.
