Raven woke up early the next morning, rubbing her eyes, wondering where she was.
Oh, right. I’m in the apartment that a famous celebrity rock star rented for me after I was hired to be his escort for a few days.
She sat up on the couch, where she’d apparently fallen asleep, and tried to recall how late she’d stayed up. The television was still on, and she vaguely remembered watching some late night PBS special where Wayne Dyer was pacing around the stage and talking about living from a place of gratitude.
She hadn’t been able to fall asleep because she’d been thinking about him again. Jake. Wondering what he was doing. Reading every article about him, trying to see if he’d been spotted out anywhere, refreshing Twitter and Facebook and Instagram for updates. Checking her phone to see if he’d tried to message her, even though she knew he wasn’t going to.
He’s got a show tonight in Boston. Maybe you should go there and see if you can get a ticket from one of the scalpers.
But Raven knew she wasn’t going to do that. She wasn’t going to humiliate herself, stalking Jake at one of his own concerts.
Jake had paid her very well to get rid of her—the least she could do was respect his wish to forget she’d ever existed.
In any case, today wasn’t about Jake Novak, and it wasn’t about Raven’s confusion over possibly having a broken heart.
Today was about Skylar.
Skylar was undergoing chemotherapy for the first time, and Raven wanted to be there for her completely and totally—she wanted to be present for Skylar, not just physically, but emotionally.
You need to get yourself in check. Enough pining for Jake, it’s time to really step up to the plate for Sky. She’s scared and she needs you.
Thinking about Skylar was like a splash of cold water on her face, and Raven immediately felt more alert and awake. She got off the couch and went to the bathroom, jumped in the shower, washed up as quickly as she could, and then got dressed in a comfortable outfit.
She knew from her research that these chemo sessions could last hours, so she wanted to be as relaxed as possible. After getting dressed, pulling back her hair, she applied just a bit of makeup and brushed her teeth.
It was early enough that Raven had time before meeting Skylar at the hospital. She left the apartment and went shopping. There were plenty of stores surrounding the towers, and Raven made use of the time to put together a duffel bag full of things that Skylar might want throughout her treatment.
Raven bought candy, gum, and crackers of various assortments. Brownies, cookies, chips. Then she got goofy stuff like coloring books, magazines (Raven refused to take the three magazines that featured Jake on the cover), a couple of novels, a travel-sized checker board and a travel-sized game of scrabble, crossword puzzles, that sort of stuff.
In the end, the duffel bag was stuffed full and Raven could
