Raven clutches the robe to her and looks at the floor, thouroughly embarrassed. "It was entirely my fault Corri." she admits, "And you have every right to be angry." she continues looking down, feeling very guilty. "I thought it was you in here... so I just thought..."
Billy, being smart for once, remains decidedly silent.

He's a little surprised by the whole situation, but angry isn't quite the right word to describe it... especially since rave felt so guilty about it, so he tries to sound far more calm and reassuring than he feels, "Just put the robe on. We can talk abuot this in my room, and let Billy finish up his shower, ok?"

Raven nods, still looking to the groud. She pulls on the robe, hoping not to let anyone get any more of a glimpse of her. She follows Corri out quietly, he dark wet hair clinging to her lithe frame.

He closes the door to the bathroom, rather hoping his parents weren't going to wake up and investigate the noise, then ushers Rave into his bedroom. He doesn't feel like lecturing her or anything, since she seems to be beating herself up about it a lot.
Besides, it must be pretty horrible to have someone see you naked who you didn't mean to have see you that way. In the end, his sympathy wins out, and he takes her in his arms. Just for future reference, he points out, "I always lock the door."

Those few words totally break down Raven's reslolve. She clings to corri with all her strength and begins to sob into his shoulder. "I'm so sorry...." she weeps. "I shouldn't have done it but.. I didn't think you'd woken him and I didn't think that it wasn't... ugh. I just didn't think!"
Billy continues on in his shower, feeling rather awkward again.

He rubs her back and kisses the top of her head, focussing all his attention on making her feel better, "It's OK, people mess up, people mess up all the time. It's not... the end of the world, right? Just be more careful next time, ok?"

"But I feel so bad!" she continues crying into him. Even if he's saying these words, she can't be sure that's how he really feels about it. She'd told him that she liked Billy and then she'd walked in on him in the shower, even thoguh she was dating his brother. It wasn't right. It shouldn't have happened...

He cups her cheeks with his hands, and tilts her head up so she has to look into his eyes, "It's ok Rave, please stop crying. You don't have to feel so bad."

Raven can't look at Corri, at least not right now. Instead of that making her feel better, she just feels worse. Tears continue to leak down her cheeks and she brings her hands up to wipe them away furiously.

Cor doesn't know what else he can do or say, so he just holds her until she stops crying.

As Raven cries, Billy walks to the door silently, just watching the two of them. Now he feels almost as bad as Rave does and he truly hopes that his brother isnt angry with him. He knows Raven will be...
His heart wrenches when he sees Raven's broken weeping. He wants to go to her, but he also knows that will be a very big mistake. Instead he just shadows the doorway.

Corri brushes his hand through his girlfriend's hair, starting to wonder if his being there was maing it worse for her instead of better. he just wished he could tell what she wanted, what would make her feel better.

Finally Raven stops crying, it's now only ten minutes before school starts, she realizes, glancing at the clock. She looks to Corri, finally meeting his gaze. "I think the tea is cold." she says.

He nods a bit, "Probably. I can put it in a thermos and when we get a chance we can microwave it at school. We pretty much have to leave now, well, after you get dressed. Do you want me to drive, or are you ok?"

"yOU DRIVE." SHE SAYS. she grabs her bag and walks out the door.
Billy ducks out of sight while Raven passes and walks into Corri's room. He looks at his brother, at a total loss of what to say.
