(bxb)in love with him Ep12
Raven’s eyes grow wider as I approach him with the knife. It does feel good to see him take me seriously at last, but it’s not enough. I’m too mad. Madder, in fact, than could be explained by just his behavior. There’s something more, something about him that just makes we want to wipe him out and make the world a better place.“Jamie,” he says, backing away, holding his crumpled jeans in front of him. “What are you doing?” His eyes keep darting from my face to the knife and back.“Enough is enough,” I say, and then he sprints past me and out of the room.I’m readier for this maneuver than I was with his friend a minute earlier. I grab him by the shoulder, but with him wearing nothing but his underwear, my fingers slip off his sweaty skin and he makes it into the corridor, stumbling and nearly falling. I burst out of the room and block his path to the stairs before he c

It takes him a good quarter of an hour to wash his face. I wait patiently, sitting on the floor, tracing my fingers mindlessly on the rough surface of the carpet. Judging by the muffled sound of the window opening and closing, Raven is considering alternative escape routes. Yet there’s no way he could squeeze out through the little bathroom window, so he will have to use the door.My mind is stuck in a loop, trying to figure out what has just happened and what’s going to happen next. If Raven reports me, I’ll be in trouble. I probably won’t go to jail, since it’s my first offence, and I haven’t cut him for real, but they will give me a hard time. Could having a criminal record affect my chances to become a baseball player? Have I just thrown my dream away because of one mistake?I shake my head. He won’t report me. Doing that would uncover his own dirty secrets, which will send him to a therapy ho

All right guys, what is it?”Catherine’s eyes shift from me to Raven as we sit opposite her by the kitchen table, picking at our vegetables and the oven fries. As little as the two of us usually communicate, today’s silence is probably too heavy for her to miss.“Come on, did you fight?” She puts her elbows on the table and props her chin on one hand, peering at our faces.I concentrate on my plate. Somehow, it feels like this is Raven’s question to answer. The two of us haven’t really talked about what has happened, since there was barely enough time for him to get dressed and make himself presentable before Catherine got home, and I had to dispose of the bloodied towel and the rest of the evidence of our tumultuous afternoon. Frankly, I do not know where he will take this. Will he tell her what I did? But then he’ll have to tell what he did as well.“James?” she says

The short ride from school is so familiar that I barely look around, keeping my eyes on the road. Still, something catches my eye. A bunch of guys turning into a narrow alley. Nothing special, just a group of schoolkids heading home.Except that one of them is wearing a “Fake Drug” hoodie. A black one. Like the one Raven had on this morning.It’s not like he’s the only one wearing such hoodies, and it’s not like I’m supposed to follow him around. I’m not his babysitter.Still, I pull over at the first available spot and get out of the car. It might be ridiculous to chase every person wearing a “Fake Drug” hoodie, but if it’s him, I want to know what he’s up to.He’s been behaving surprisingly well in the last few days, and the better he acted, the more suspicious I got. When he was being an asshole, at least I knew what I was up against. He&rs

Catherine’s not in her room, so I go downstairs to look for her. As childish as it may sound, wishing her good night has been my habit for far too long to give up on it now. I move silently, unwilling to disturb the quiet of the dark house, interrupted only by the occasional dripping of water in the kitchen.Raven must be asleep already, too. Lately, he’s been going to bed early.I find Catherine on the sofa in the living room, her eyes closed, probably lulled to sleep by the table clock ticking nearby. I stop next to her, considering if I should wake her up or just cover her with some blanket. From where I stand, I can see a corner of the kitchen counter with the dishes drying on the rack.“I told you.”I look down and find her smiling at me sleepily.“I told you he would eventually do his chores.”“Yeah, right.” I roll my eyes. “Won’t
