Chapter 10

Raven

Raven Simpson, high maintenance woman that loves the color pink especially in dresses, heels, lipsticks, and eye shadow. She loves her long blonde hair that goes down to the middle of her back. Unfortunately, her sister Sasha is all about that dark and disturbing stuff of blood, dark clothing, and chains. Raven felt lucky that they weren't born twins and several years apart in age because she couldn't stand being compared to Sasha. Most expected her to be the dark, gothic chick because of her name but no, that is Sasha who could care less about being prim and proper to have a day at the spa. Raven knew her fiance Addy would be home soon enough to discuss their marriage though her sister keeps telling reminding her that Addy belongs to some woman named Harley and they will rule this coven. Raven always laughs at that crazy scenario because there is no way Addy would go for all that in one life style.

Raven heard a car outside knowing that her fiance is finally home excited her but as soon as she opened the door Addy didn't come running to her and looked depressed.

"Welcome home baby. I have coffee brewing, and our favorite movie on." Raven said waving her cigar in the air.

"Hey sweetheart, thank you but I am not in the mood." Addy replying walking past Raven.

"Why? Didn't you enjoy you're trip to New York City?" Raven asked taking a puff of her cigar.

"No, I left my true love behind because of her twin sister constantly out to hurting me. Harley is a wonderful woman that I didn't even get to know because I got caught between women like Lisa Winters and Celeste Rayne. I could have had it all with Harley if Celeste wasn't desperate and my dumb ass wouldn't have fallen for her the first night I went out there." Addy complained and frustration.

"Ha-Harley...my sister mentioned something about her. I know you remember Sasha but you do realize that you are in love with me and not her." Raven replied in protest.

"I do not wish to discuss this Raven. We have a wedding to plan in less than a week and I don't feel like bringing up Harley and her own sister. Hell, Sasha can't predict who I am going to end up with. I am done with all this bullshit drama that I end up twisted in." Addy responded going to the kitchen and grabbing a bottle of whiskey.

"Since when did you drink whiskey?" Raven asked startled to see Addy chugging it.

"A lot of New Yorkers drink it, and I am enjoying it." Addy slowly slurring her words after two big gulps.

"You are back in Virginia, baby, you don't need to drink so much." Raven responded.

"I am not you're baby, I am Addy, and I don't care where the fuck I am located. I want my life back to normal with Harley but it'll never be because of Celeste. You are lucky that I did decide to come back for our wedding knowing you probably had some shitty sluts in your bed every night." Addy replied knowing that the alcohol is controlling her thought process.

"I think you have had enough alcohol, babe, time for you to get some shut eye. Let's get you to bed." Raven responded.

Raven tugged Addy on the shoulder's dragging her to their bedroom leaving the alcohol in their kitchen. Raven didn't understand Addy's obsession with Harley, it is the same as her sister it is like their on the same wavelength. Raven left Addy in their bedroom then went to dump any alcohol that could be found including the wine for their wedding but it is best to keep it all away from Addy.

After cleaning up everything Raven went to the computer to look up Celeste Rayne which led her to find out that Harley and Celeste are identical twins though randomly a message popped up on her end. It seemed rather odd, she doesn't have any friends outside of her sisters group of gothic and vampires that she hangs out with as she opened it, it reads from both Harley and Celeste, oh shit.

Raven Simpson,

We have found you just by luck though know that we are on our way to get Addy within the next week before you two decide to marry and if you think putting her in a blood bath wedding is going to save your candy ass you are so dead wrong. We aren't here to play games, yes, I hate it that my dear sister hurt her but I am the one that deserves her more than any other woman in this world. So, you best cancel this bloodbath wedding or else I will see that you are handled by her dear friends here in New York City.

Sincerely,

Harley and Celeste Rayne

Raven would never ever plan a bloodbath wedding not unless her own sister Sasha lied about marrying Stacy but why would she? This is making her sick to her stomach. Raven had no way of letting her sister know either of what is about to happen due to rehearsal for her wedding that happens the same time hers does with Addy. Raven wrote back with hopes they were still able to read her message.

Harley & Celeste Rayne,

I have also found you through Addy just know that we aren't having a so called "bloodbath wedding." We are having a normal wedding like normal human beings would. I have no idea where you assumed this not unless you meant my sister Sasha and her soon to be wife Stacy than yes, they are having this "bloodbath wedding" that you speak of. Harley, I know you love Addy but according to her since you're sister Celeste hurt her(whatever that means) than she will not want to be around you both. You two aren't meant to be Harley, so forget her and this whole mess. Don't you dare to stop me from marrying Addy either.

Sincerely,

Highest Princess of the United States

Raven Simpson

That should shut the twins up making them believe she is a princess. Raven continued her search of Harley and Celeste rest of the evening since she knew Addy wouldn't wake up any time soon. Raven didn't hear another word from Harley or Celeste after their threatening message though began to wonder if they bothered since they most likely didn't research the fact that she also has a sister though when you are pissed about someone leaving it will make you do some crazy things. Raven didn't know these sisters at all and they sound like dimwits for not knowing who she is before assuming that she is to have a "blood bath wedding" that is so disturbing and her sister is one who would enjoy something like that. Raven did sit their thinking about calling her sister through the house phone to see if she would get a response and let her know what is about to happen with the Rayne twins. Without warning Addy came stumbling out of the bedroom and gave her the most scary look that she has ever seen. It made her take a big gulp and a shiver when Addy had whiskey it changed her personality from a sweet innocent to a devil in disguise.

"Where is Harley?" Addy asked.

"New York City." Raven said boldly.

"Who are you?" Addy asked again.

"You're fiance Raven." Raven replied nervously.

"YOU AREN'T HARLEY! SHE IS MY FIANCE." Addy screamed.

"Addy, calm down, it is all okay. Harley is coming next week to our wedding." Raven replied calmly as can be.

"NO! I WANT HER NOW, DO YOU HEAR ME? I WANT HARLEY RAYNE NOW!" Addy screamed louder.

Raven felt tears threatening she didn't understand besides their was something in the whiskey that switched Addy from a sweet woman completely this isn't Addy at all. Raven watched Addy fall to the ground and pass out again. Raven got up slowly from the computer making her way to Addy then placing her back in the bedroom carefully. She never felt so scared in her life witnessing Addy like that, whiskey made her crazy but nothing like this. Raven never had anything wrong with her liquor in any part of the house but this is just flat out scary as shit seeing the woman she loves lose her mind. Deciding to go back to the kitchen, checking the bag where the whiskey is, and sure enough it smelled like someone tampered with it but who in the world would care to fuck with her liquor especially the whiskey? Raven couldn't imagine her sister doing it though Sasha is known to have hatred herself towards people but even so she is supportive of her choices.

Raven tossed the bottle back in the trash then took it outside quickly before Addy decided to have anymore liquor of any sort from her home. Getting back inside she found Addy sitting their with a smile like nothing happened, her hair was all over the place, and her peachy skin came back to normal. Raven smiled seeing that Addy finally got rested enough to be a decent human again and not a raging fool.

"Hey baby, why do you look so scared?" Addy asked.

"Nothing, Addy, nothing. I am going to get us some coffee brewed, and make us some breakfast." Raven said.

"Why are you calling me, Addy? You always call me baby, babe, darling, sweetheart, you know pet names." Addy asked again.

"No reason just love saying you're name especially rolling off my tongue." Raven replied with hopes Addy wouldn't catch on to anything.

"Let's not have breakfast at home, I am in the mood for some juicy raw steaks and meeting up with your sister for some bonding time." Addy suggested smiling.

"Okay, let me call up Sasha and her fiance Stacy to see if they would like to meet us somewhere." Raven replied.

Raven watched Addy carefully as she went to make a phone call on her wireless house phone that she is thankful to take outside if need be. Soon as Raven got on the phone with Sasha, she saw Addy make her way to the freezer nervously watching.

"Sasha, can you be ready to meet Addy and I at Cracker Barrel for Lunch?" Raven asked through the phone.

"Yes, why are you sounding so scared?" Sasha asked.

"Just meet us at Cracker Barrel soon because I need to talk to you about Addy." Raven said in a hurry watching Addy eating raw steak from the freezer.

"What is wrong with Addy, Raven?" Sasha asked again.

"She drank some tainted alcohol last night, she woke up very early this morning like a zombie on the kill after wanting Harley Rayne and now she is eating raw meat with a death glare at me." Raven replied gulping with fear.

"Raven, get out of that house now and lock the front door, do not do anything until we get there, do you understand?" Sasha responded.

"Yes, yes, hurry!" Raven replied hurrying out of the house and locking the front door.

Raven didn't know what was going on but she didn't like it one bit. Raven hung up with Sasha as she waited outside pacing around trying not to freak out about how much Addy went from being normal to craving raw meat within three hours of getting out of bed and her screaming for Harley early morning disturbed her badly, all she wanted was to love on Addy. Raven feels regret kicking in letting Addy back into her life and seeing how fucking crazy she become within just being in distance of one another. They haven't had a peaceful twenty four hours together either it is making Raven want to cry so badly for being so scared of her fiance, the woman she would give her life for in a heartbeat and now she is so scared of Addy that the thought of touching her would end badly. It felt like forever when Sasha and Stacy finally showed up in gear that looked like they were going to hurt Addy badly that made her shiver badly because she didn't want to lose Addy over her mental state.

"Alright sis, open the front door, we are ready to handle Addy." Sasha demanded.

Raven slowly unlocked the door holding her breath with hopes Addy is back to herself and not eating raw meat anymore also giving her a death stare that would kill for decades. Raven opened the door all the way with seeing Addy smiling casually being dressed and ready to go out. Raven couldn't make sense of this craziness. It didn't add up one minute she is dark and creepy the next she is casual and sweet, it never makes any sense.

"Hey everybody, so when are we going to eat some decent food I am so hungry." Addy said smiling.

"In a few minutes, Addy, I need to talk to my sister." Raven replied glaring at Addy with confusion.

Raven pulled Sasha away from Stacy and Addy letting them chatter in the house with the door open as Sasha rolled her eyes at Raven.

"She is fine, sis, I have no idea why you are acting like she is some creature." Sasha complained.

"SHE FUCKING WAS A DEATH KILLING MACHINE. I am not joking. I saw her eating raw meat and glaring at me like she would kill me in a heartbeat." Raven replied filled with anger.

"Raven, she is fine now. I am going to take Stacy with me and we are going to get dressed for our meeting that we now have to attend over Addy being some type of monster that you claim. We will not be attending lunch with you, sorry." Sasha responded calmly.

"Great, just great. I will be having lunch with my crazy fiance because no one can see what I can." Raven replied.

Raven watched Sasha walk away shaking her head as Stacy laughed with Sasha on whatever is funny when nothing was especially with Addy. Raven made her way inside closing the door sighing waiting for Addy to become crazy again when not even her sister believed her.

"Baby, go get ready to eat. No more sulking around here. I am ready for some real good food." Addy said.

"I am not hungry at the moment find something in the refrigerator, I am going to rest for a little while, I had a very long night last night waiting on a message from your friends in New York." Raven replied sighing again.

"Okay, darling. I will see you in a few hours. I am going to find something to eat and watch some television." Addy responded calmly.

Raven dragged herself to bed not able to look at Addy. First time in ages, Raven didn't even know Addy and it didn't seem like the way things are supposed to go. Remembering in her mind when they first dated back in High School, Raven being the cheerleader and Addy being a nerd studying daily. They were two different people but fell in love instantly. Realizing now that it is too late to change their love life, Raven is ready to let Addy go back to New York since that is where she changed at when it came to their big fight over two months back. Raven knew that Addy wasn't meant for her but she couldn't accept it.

Wiping her make-up away, removing her nail polish, taking off her heels, pantyhose, dress, bra, and panties as she looked at herself in the mirror with tears going down her face. Raven didn't know what to do with herself besides shower and sleep even though she is afraid to sleep just a little bit not knowing what Addy would become by being alone in the house. Raven moved away from the mirror turning around to turn on the hot water and drench her body with tears shedding some more. All she could hear in her thoughts is you don't need Addy, she is evil, and playing cruel games on you. Or anything else her mind will fuss about Addy. Raven heard the bathroom door open, she knew in her mind that it is Addy the only one who had access to this whole house.

"I thought you were going to bed, darling." Addy said.

"After my shower needed some down time." Raven replied.

Closing her eyes Raven felt hands go around her waist as she heard Addy whisper.

"I will clean with you, my sweet Raven."

Raven couldn't answer as she felt Addy's hand slid between her folds making her moan and that is when Raven decided to get out of the shower. Grabbing a towel then rushed into the bedroom getting her clothes then went to bed. Raven wasn't about to make love to the devil of a woman that claims to be her fiance. Raven felt Addy come to bed with her, cuddling into her arms as Raven shredded more tears, she has cried more than she has in months and this time it is all because she is scared.

"I wish you would explain to me on why you are avoiding me, I thought you loved me with every part of your being. We have been in love since our teen years and now that I have come home you don't want to touch me, let me love you or anything." Addy whispered through her own tears.

Raven pretended to sleep she couldn't discuss this with Addy knowing that even a sip of alcohol could change her well being. Raven wanted what is best and that is to end their engagement before it is to late or else she will see herself six feet in the ground by her own future wife-to-be. Raven laid their wide eye as Addy still held her but she didn't dare move or else Addy would know she is still awake. Raven wanted to run away from all this and be alone like it was long before Addy decided to come back. For once she wanted to forget loving Addy and just give her up all together. Raven felt Addy remove her hand then let out a big sigh.

"I know you are awake, Raven. I know when you don't wish to talk to me but this is very disturbing that I have no idea what I have done to piss you off. I haven't been here a whole twenty four hours and you are avoiding me like a plague. I thought for once you would love me as me and take my hand by next week to wed but it seems that we no longer exist as lovers. Just know, whatever I did wrong, I am sorry, I would never mean to hurt you in anyway. I am going to the living room. Sleep tight, Raven." Addy said as Raven heard her sobs across the room as she left.

Raven heard the bedroom door closes quietly as she laid their staring at the ceiling, knowing this doesn't answer anything if Addy doesn't remember.
