Raven stood there in silence, boredom creeping in on her as they waited. Nothing was happening, and no one came. It seems that there was no point to John hurrying, because there were no signs of any [i]assembly[/i] happening. She sighed in discontent. Raven felt a sudden craving for coffee, and she turned back to check if John was still around. Fortunately for her, he was. "Where's the nearest coffee shop?" She questioned him out of the blue. She kept her voice low, not wanting the other students to hear her. He blinked a few times, taken aback by her sudden, random, question. "There's one a few blocks from here." He cleared his throat before putting back on his professional look. "Will you drive me there?" She asked in a casual manner. Once again, he gave her an odd look. She raised an eyebrow at him, beckoning him to respond. "Oh. Uh, no.. Of course not. Sorry. What an odd question." He replied with a slight shrug. "Fine, I'll walk." She replied, unconcerned. She started to walk away from the group of students, and away from the school. "Wait, you can't do that. H-hey!" John called out, but immediately kept quiet, not wanting to draw the attention to them. Raven continued to walk away, not looking back and deciding to ignore him. "Fine, I'll drive you there." He sighed in defeat. She didn't smile, but the glint of amusement in her eyes gave it away. She immediately turned back, and walked past him casually, before getting inside of the car. As soon as John got into the driver's seat, he let out an exasperated breath. He turned around to face her before speaking, "I'll drive you there, you buy the coffee, and you will come back to the car. We have to move fast, okay?" She didn't reply, but he waited for a response, and something told her that if she didn't give him one, he wouldn't start the car. "Kay." She replied nonchalantly, before looking at the window. The car was tinted, so she could easily observe the other students from inside without them seeing. The car started to move, and after a 5-minute drive, they arrived at the intended place. She slowly got out of the car, and before she shut the door close, she could her John mumble a "Hurry up." Raven walked towards the coffee shop. As soon she entered, the smell of coffee greeted her, making her mouth water. Thankfully, there were only a few people so there was no need for her to fall in line. Raven walked to the counter, and the lady greeted her with a warm smile. "Iced Java chip frappuccino." She ordered, and the lady took down her order before motioning for her to move to the next counter. As her order was placed in front of her, she reached into her pocket, and came into a sudden realization that she had completely forgotten her wallet back home. The barista eyed her curiously, waiting for her to pay up. Her gaze slowly met his, and she flashed him a small smile as she took the coffee in hesitation. After a moment of staring, she swiftly ran for the exit, not bothering to look back. "Hey!" She could hear the barista call out before the door closed behind her. She quickly got into the car. "Move it, John." She hollered. "Why are you suddenly in a rush? Finally excited for school?" He answered lazily as he yawned. When he saw the barista running angrily towards the car, he paused, and stared. "Oh. I guess not." He stepped on the gas pedal, and the car moved backwards in a fast speed. Raven calmly fastened her seat belt, and leaned back against the chair as she took a sip from her drink. "What the hell did you do?" John asked. The car was now moving in a steady speed towards the direction of the school. "Nothing." She shrugged as she took another sip from her drink. She chewed on the straw gently, as she looked outside the window. They were so close to school now, and that caused her to internally groan. "A barista came running after you. Of course you did nothing." He replied, but she knew that he wasn't angry. She could see the amusement in his grey, old, eyes. "Left my wallet. But I'll pay for it when I go back." She answered him. "[i]If[/i] I go back." She added. They pulled over in the school's driveway, but Raven stayed at the back of the car without moving. "You have to go down now. I'm leaving." John told her as he looked at her through the front mirror. "I don't want to go to school. I don't really.. talk to people." She said quietly, a hint of loneliness in her voice. "Is that so?" He replied sarcastically. "Way to ruin the mood." Raven sighed, rolling her eyes before opening the door and stepping outside. She slowly walked back to the spot that she was standing on earlier. At least this time, she had a drink in hand, as she waited wearily for whatever was next.
