Chapter 30: The Owl

                                    

                                          
So.. I looked it up and according to the internet: Evan is 25. Hmmm..

Raven's POV 
it's been a few days since we've been home. Everyone went home too. It was Saturday morning. I just got done brushing my hair due to the shower I just had. I was in shorts but I decided to wear Evan's old shirt that he said was too small. It was an owl with the night sky behind it. It was pretty. I was now playing some gta5 when Evan called me. 
                          
Phone Call: 
"Hey! You doing anything today?" 
"Nope. Tyler and Mini want to stay home." 
"Wanna hang out? I'm bored and my flight to Canada has been delayed until tomorrow night." 
"Sure! When do you want to hang?" 
"Can we hang now?" 
"Sure! Be careful comin over!" 
"Of course. See you soon child." 
"Ok parrot."
"OWL!" 
End. 
                          
I laughed at the end. I texted Tyler to see if I could leave. 
                          
Text: 
Me: Hey dad! Is it cool if I hang with Evan? His flight got delayed. 
Tyler🐷: Sure. Just be careful. 
Me: will do! I'll be leaving soon. 
Tyler🐷: if anything happens, call me anytime. 
End. 
                          
Notice how he didn't mention mini? Over protective! I paused my game and put my shoes on then got back on my bed to play some more. 
                          
Evan's POV 
Hmm.. need to go to the mall. Sure Raven won't mind. I haven't ate at all today.. I'm sure Raven will want some food too. 
'Damn her eyes are gorgeous.' 
Shut up brain. SQUIRREL! Didn't hit it..good.. now, park by the curb of the drive way.... didn't mess up! Now text Raven. 
                          
Text
Me: I'm here 
Raven: Comin owl
Me: BAT-OWL 
Raven: ok batcoon 
End 
                          
I looked to my right and she nearly fell over a rock. 
'SHE'S WEARING THE SHIRT I GAVE HER!' 
"Sup Owl." She said getting in. 
"Saw you almost trip." I laughed. 
"I don't know what you're talkin about. What do you wanna do?" She asked. 
"Well I haven't ate today. Have you?" I asked driving. 
"I haven't either.." she shrugged. 
"Want to go to (favorite non fast food place)?" I asked. 
"Cool with me." She smiled that beautiful smile. 
'Stop it Evan.' 
'Shut up!' 
We talked for a bit until we got there. We got in, got a booth in the back, ordered and waited. I started to remember what I was talking to delirious about. 
                          
Flash back: 
"Evan. Just tell her. I can see how she see's you." Delirious smiled as we sat and waited for his plan. He was going to North Carolina with luke but they somehow got different flights. Ohm left on his plane already. 
"You sure? There's a bit of an age difference.." I thought. 
"I'm sure if you just tell her, it won't be bad. You know how she is. Very understanding and she may tell you to wait until she's old enough." He reassured. 
"But what if she's weirded out?" I asked. 
"Y'all've (y'all -v) already kissed. I'm sure she won't be weirded out." He laughed a little. We heard his plane get called. We got up and hugged good bye. 
"Try man." He smiled. I waved bye. 
End. 
                          
"So Raven.. I was wondering if I could tell you something." I tensed up a bit. 
"You can talk to me about anything." She smiled and giggled. 
"Well, it's about the-" I was cut off by our waiter. He gave us our food and left. 
"About the what?" She asked taking a drink. 
"The kiss..." I trailed off. She looked worried but also trying to hide it. "I like you.. a lot and I don't really know how to show it. It's been a while.." I said looking out the window.
"Evan, its ok. I like you too but there's also an age difference." She sighed. 
"I know. But I can wait for you if you'd like." I reassured. 
"I don't want to keep you waiting.." She sighed with a worried look. 
'Damn my heart is pounding hard.' 
"Raven, it's ok. If you want, we can talk about this more after." I smiled. 
"Sounds like a plan." She smiled and we ate. I changed the subject to me doing hockey and what she wanted to do for the future.
