Chapter 39 Raven: Speaking

• Raven POV
• I spend hours with Ava, sitting, drinking, and talking. I update her on everything that has happened, except the weird messages and gifts that I won’t unload on her. I explained about the other night with Emmett, and then we sat for at least ten minutes dying of laughter when she realised that was what today's jokes were about.
• It's nice. I almost forget about all the shit that is waiting to explode. Yet, every now and then, I see her looking at me and realise I have put her at risk. The longer I am her friend, the bigger that target becomes.
