”Hey there, Beautiful.” Raven greeted Luna as she arrived. The girl smiled and held his hand.
”Hey there, Handsome.” She placed a kiss on his lips and asked: ”Is it time?”
Raven nodded to her and clasped her hand tightly, in the end he really couldn't prevent her from participating in this.
”Hold on, hold on, hold on!!” The two shivered a bit when they heard Ellen's voice behind them.
They turned around and looked at her. She in turn had her hands on her waist as she looked at them holding hands.
”What's wrong?” Luna asked in a confused tone.
”What do you mean 'What's wrong?', are you guys forgetting to tell us something?” Ellen raised her brows in annoyance.
”Oh! So that's what you mean.” Raven chuckled as he realized why she was making a fuss. ”I mean, it should be obvious by now, knowing that you guys saw us kiss and all…”
”But yeah, we're official.” Raven said as he gently pulled the blushing Luna closer to his body and kissed the top of her head.
*Squealing*
The girls squealed and hurriedly pulled Luna away from him. The boys then surround Raven and started punching his sides.
”Haha! Congrats, Dude!” Paul chided as he swung his arms around him and playfully punched his sides. ”So, how far have you guys gotten?”
”Do you want to die?”
”Haha. Nope! My bad.” Paul sweated nervously as he felt Raven's deadly gaze. Mark's hand flew towards the back of his head.
”You idiot We're too young for that!” Mark reprimanded, he then looked at Raven and asked: ”Is His Majesty aware of this.”
Raven smiled and said: ”Yeah. My parents knows about it as well.”
”Nice.” Mark said while raising a thumbs-up, ”Treat her well, or else your head will be severed from your shoulders.”
”You didn't have to go there but yeah, I certainly will. I waited too long for this.” Raven smiled, earning a grin from the two.
”How about you then?” Raven asked Mark, causing him to raise his brow in confusion. ”Don't give me that look. When are you going to tell her what truly happened back then?”
Mark's mood instantly dampened when he said this.
”And you?” Raven sighed and looked at Paul, ”When are you going to tell her that it was you?”
Paul looked down, his usual attitude was gone and there was a trace of helplessness in his face.
Raven shook his head once again. He wanted to help them out for this situation as well but his efforts would be wasted if these guys don't want to help themselves.
It was clear that the history of these six people goes way back. The two are keeping something hidden, and if they don't want to face it, the Raven could only respect their decision.
”I'm not forcing you.” Raven said, ”But you lost them once. If you don't want that to happen again then consider doing something about it.”
The two were silent on his words, they didn't know what to say and Raven didn't want to really force it. Besides, they have other important matters at hand.
”Alright. Let's talk business people.” Raven clapped his hands and called out. ”Who's ready to conquer the Danger Zones?”
