"Adam," I said in disbelief.

What was he doing here?

"Surprise! My mother said I could come and stay with Dane for the summer. And once I got here, I needed to see you," Adam came and kissed me.

I was shocked by his sudden actions that I pushed him away. Adam gave me the strangest look.

"Erm...welcome back," I smiled weakly.

My gaze automatically went to Angelo. His face was grim. He looked back at me.

'I didn't know..' I mouthed.

Then I turned to Adam.

"Well we are having S.A.T.M. today and..." I trailed off making it awkward.

"I love S.A.T.M. day! When are we going to do it?" Adam smiled brightly.

I blinked in surprise. Adam knows what S.A.T.M. means? Sometimes I get why Adam and I got along so well. And why we dated. But that's behind us now. We said we'll be friends. Until he finishes school. But that kiss. That kiss let some sparks that was being balled up. So it was like an explosion or something. Damit.

"Hey Raven wanna get a ride with me?" Angelo asked.

I nodded slowly.

"Okay, Adam, Curtis, and Kyle can come with me," Kera said.

I thanked her with my eyes. She nodded. I went downstairs and changed. My hair was pulled to the side, while I wore shorts and a belly shirt. To top it all off I wore a black leather jacket and 5 inch black heels. I went upstairs and saw Angelo sitting on a chair in the kitchen.

"Wow," he said as he saw me.

"Oh, didn't know you were still here," I said as I looked down at my heels.

I felt his hand go under my chin. Slowly he lifted my face up.

"Raven, please stop avoiding me. I know the only reason why you said yes to come with me is because of Adam. I know he still likes you. And you him. But I need to check something. I have to," then he pressed his lips against mine.

They felt so right. He bit my bottom lip softly, making me groan. My hands went to his hair as he lifted me up. My legs wrapped around his waist. Then I pulled away.

"There are you happy?" I said and pushed him away.

I ran outside. Tears were rolling down my cheeks. The frustration and confusion were so....agh!

"Raven!" I heard Angelo yell.

I got in his car and sat there looking out the window. The car door opened and I heard Angelo come in the vehicle.

"Ray..."

"Angelo I can't. You don't understand how hurt you made me. Or messed up. I'm so messed up and hurt. You called me a skank. You said I was yours and I would always come back to you," I cried.

"That's-I told you I didn't remember what I said!" Angelo yelled.

"IT DOESN'T MATTER. YOU SHOULDN'T OF BEEN DRUNK OR WHATEVER YOU WERE!" I screamed back.

"WHY DOES THIS MATTER!?!" Angelo screamed also.

"I WAS RAPED!" I cried out.

Silence filled the car. My throat tighten. I can't believe I said that. Only Curtis and I were suppose to know. But the guys words echoed in my head.

'You're mine...' as he did the dirty.

I shivered.

"Why didn't you tell me?" Angelo whispered.

"You hated me. Why would I. It's not like you would have cared. You were too busy being arrogant and stupid to realize that something was wrong with me. No, instead all you cared about was how much I had hurt you!" I looked at him with burning eyes.

"Ray...I had no idea..." Angelo stared at me.

"Well whatever. We have to start going. So please drive," I said.

I felt the car go. I got out my phone and plugged in my head phones.

Great start to proving he loves me...

•••

I sat down at the food court as my arms were throbbing. Carrying 10 bags on each arm was so hard. But it was worth it. The clothes were fab. I bought this really gorgeous dress that I'm going clubbing with. But it's only going to be me and Kera because the its going to be a girls night out. The guys complained but we convinced them not to come at all. I mean if Adam and Angelo came, and they tried to compete to get my attention. I wouldn't know what to do, it would be too much to handle.

"C'mon, please Kera stay. I need to talk to you," Curtis begged.

Kera looked at me. I read her eyes. I signed and nodded. Never mind, I guess clubbing was off the menu.

"Sure," Kera said happily.

I picked up my bags and decided to take the bus. Adam and the rest were lining up for food, so they wouldn't see me. The summer breeze felt amazing on my skin. I could shake off the feeling bad things are going to go down this summer. The craziness will be the death of me, I swear. I plugged in my head phones and sat on one of the two person seats. I closed my eyes, letting the music flow inside my ears, making me want to dance. I felt a hand touch my right shoulder blade.

"Excuse me?" they asked as I took out my headphones.

I looked at the stranger and caught my breath. There stood a angel looking down at me. His dark blonde hair was long in the front and short in the back. His pale grey eyes stared in my hazel ones. He had the lazy look to him, making it dead sexy. His slender body was covered by a elbow sleeve length shirt. His shorts were down to his knee chaps while his feet were in a pair of Adidas shoes. Shit. I am checking him out.

"Yes?" I managed to get out.

"Is it alright if I sat here?" he smiled at me.

I nodded my head and looked the other way. My bags were crowed by the seat so he was literally pressed up against me. I swallowed and tried not to gawk at his gorgeousness.

"Hey..." he tried to make small talk with me.

I didn't look at him.

"Hi," I said flatly.

"I'm Jake," he stuck out his hand.

I looked at him and saw him smiling at me. Again.

"Hi I'm Raven," I shook his hand.

"So..." he said.

"So..?"

"So..."

"So,"

"Sooo...."

"What are you doing?" I laughed.

"Trying to make you smile. But I made you laugh, which is better," Jake smiled at me.

"Okay," I smiled and shook my head.

"I want to take you out. I know it's weird, but I am insisting on it," Jake smiled at me.

More.

"Erm... I don't know," I said hesitantly.

I mean, I can't. I have Angelo, and now Adam. I can't involve Jake. In my complicated life. And I don't think Angelo and Adam would fancy the idea of me going out.

'But if you don't then guess whose going to be with you tonight...' the voice in my head whispered.

Yes but...

"Please. Just one date. And if it doesn't work, then I will never bug you again Raven," Jake begged me with his eyes.

I sighed and nodded. Better make that dress I bought to some use...
