Chapter 7

Raven went into her room and climbed into her bed. Her heart was racing fast and her lips tingled.

She took a deep breath and she could help how alive she felt after kissing Damien. She was going to think about it the whole night.

Raven was driving herself insane and when she woke up the next morning, she realized how right he was. She was distracted by the kiss that it made it impossible to concentrate properly on the task that was at hand. 

As the week went by Raven was left very confused as Damien didn't seek her out nor did he care about the kiss that they had shared.

She tried to not let it bother and she had not seen him at all, not that she didn't hear stories from the other girls who had spent time with him. She just wasn't invited.

When Friday came, Raven decided that it was time for her to stop sulking and go have fun on her own.

When was the last time she had gone to the club and danced her heart out? She would give it a shot.

Raven went to her closet and pulled out a mini-emerald dress and put it on. She let her hair down and it cascaded down her back.

She put on some make-up and earrings. She got out her heels and by the time her cab arrived she was ready to go out.

Raven walked downstairs and she could hear voices and laughter, she turned into the living room and everyone turned to her when they heard her shoes click.

"Woah Raven, are you auditioning to be a model?" one of the girls asked. 

Raven laughed a bit, "Thank you for the compliment." 

With that Raven went to the entryway and before she reached the door, a hand grabbed hers. She turned slightly to see Damien was the one that had stopped her.

"Where are you going dressed like that?" Damien asked gruffly.

"None of your business." 

"Raven?" Damien's voice came out clipped and commanding.

"To the club." 

"You can't go alone," Damien replied.

"Why can't I?" 

Raven studied Damien and she could see that he also was surprised by his answer as he didn't have any justification for it. 

"I want to come with you," said Damien.

Raven nodded, "Fine but are you going out dressed like that?" 

Damien nodded, "Give me a second." 

Raven nodded, as she watched Damien walk fast to go get changed and she used this opportunity to sneak out and climb into the cab.

"You can go Sir and please go fast." 

When they pulled out Raven relaxed and leaned back. She burst out laughing at how Damien had fallen for one of the oldest tricks in the book. 

There was no way that she was going to go with him after what happened during the week of not seeing him and him not caring. 

When she got to the club, she paid the cab driver and went into the club.
