Race choked on his French toast. When he'd finished coughing and managed to swallow it down with a gulp of water, he gave her an incredulous look. "How'd you know? Is it that obvious?" He'd been pretty sure that the concept of 'afterglow' was just a metaphor.

Raven burst out laughing, "it's all over your face! Honestly you haven't looked this happy since we stole Spot's teddy bear. Obviously it was good, otherwise you'd be all mopey just uh be careful," she pointed at her belly and raised a brow at him.

"We're careful!" Race assured her, casting about for a new topic before he turned every shade of red known to man. At the mention of the teddy bear, he burst out laughing. "Oh God, I almost forgot about that. How did Spot not kill us both years ago?"

"I know why," she smirked. "Cause he liked me even then, I was just too scared and fucked up to realize it." She smiled, "oh Race you're all red." She laughed.

"Shut up," he said with a grin, throwing a napkin at her. "You and that damn teddy bear. I was a good person before I met you!"

"Shut up! It was your idea as much as mine! If it wasn't for you the idea never woulda got planted in my head." She was laughing. "I'm still shocked he forgave me for that."

"I couldn't help it! You got me telling stories from when we were little, how I could I not think of that ridiculous teddy bear?" He smirked. "And like you said, he was crazy about you. Still is."

"Yeah," she said, but sounded uncertain about it. Sometimes she wasn't so sure anymore actually. "I still have it...the teddy bear." She whispered to him, then shoved more pancakes into her mouth.

"Seriously? I figured you threw that raggedy thing out years ago!" Race gobbled up some more French toast, eyeing her thoughtfully. "Something going on with Spot?" he asked ever so casually.

"I couldn't! I just...couldn't, stupid thing is missing an eye, half the stuffing is gone and the ear is falling off." She looked at her plate for a second, "I dunno, sometimes I think he would have been happy to just live out the life he was creating for himself and just forget about me entirely. It makes me think that maybe he doesn't love me as much as I thought he did." She shrugged. "Well it don't matter anyways..."

"The life with Annabelle Carmichael?" Race had to laugh. "Rae, that life wouldn't've lasted ten seconds. He'd've throttled her, and we'd be testifying at his trial right now about how he was really a good guy and she drove him to it." He covered her hand with his. "'Sides, of course it matters. You should talk to him. You guys gotta learn to talk things out." He and Sapphy had spent the first few months of their acquaintance doing literally nothing else.

"We've never been good at talking, I usually get frustrated and start screaming at him cause he just stares at me and don't say nothing." Raven sighed heavily.
"I wish I could have throttled Annabelle Carmichael, I hate her." Raven said with a smirk.
"And who cares about me and Spot we're always a mess. I want the scoop on you and Sapphy," She smiled at him.

"I'm onto your subject-changing tactics," Race informed her, but he smiled back anyway. "Me and Sapphy are good. I bought her clothes with my half of our hustling money--thanks for holding that for me, by the way. And yes, we 'took things to the next level', and you're not getting details on that."

"Well that's...that's just so not fair," Raven pouted. "I like the juicy details, but I guess I'll let you slide since I know you're completely in love with this girl." She smiled at him.

Race looked thoughtful while he chewed his French toast. "Is that something I'm s'posta tell her, by the way? 'Cause I ain't exactly told her yet. I mean, I'm sure she knows. I'm pretty sure she knew months before she even asked me out." In all honesty, the thought of saying "I love you" to Sapphy was terrifying to him. He really didn't know how she'd respond.
