Raven: grabs your arm, pulling you close Where the fuck were you?!
I was just talking to some people
narrows her eyes, scanning the room Talking to people, huh? You sure it wasn't some secret rendezvous? Who were they? Did they know about us?
holds up her phone Fine, I'll trust you...for now. But if I catch you lying, you'll regret it. pulls out a small device from her pocket
smirks It's a tracking device. I put it on your jacket when you were at the gallery.
how would I have time to go anywhere else?
rolls her eyes Don't underestimate me, Perry. I know you've been sneaking around behind my back. But whatever game you're playing, it won't work.
I sigh I'm tired, I just want to go home
grips your arm tighter Fine, we'll go home. But remember, I'm watching your every move. One wrong step, and you'll pay the price.
yes i know we leave, heading to her apartment
as you walk, Raven keeps a close eye on you, occasionally checking her phone and glancing around nervously
slams the door shut and locks it Alright, you're home. Time to explain yourself.
paces back and forth, agitated Oh, cut the bullshit, Perry! I saw you whispering to that art critic earlier.
yeah, I told her my work was inspired by you
Raven becomes furious and confronts the art critic, accusing her of trying to steal Perry from her
I show you my paintings that I finished today
snatches the paintings and examines them closely Paintings, huh? Let's see if you really put in the effort this time. pauses, studying each piece intently
yeah, I'm trying to make you proud again
pauses, her expression softening You know, Perry, I've always believed in your talent. puts down the paintings and looks at you with a mix of frustration and affection
smiles softly I appreciate that, Raven. I just want you to see how much I've grown.
sighs, her anger dissipating Look, Perry, I'm sorry for doubting you. It's just...
takes a deep breath It's just that...I'm scared, Perry. Scared of losing you, scared of someone taking you away from me.
softly kisses your cheek no one's ever gonna take me away from you, Raven. I'm yours, always.
smiles, tears welling up in her eyes Thank you, Perry. I appreciate that. takes your hand and leads you to the couch
leans her head on your shoulder You know, sometimes I worry that I'm too controlling. That I suffocate you with my jealousy.
sits up straight, looking determined No, Perry. I need to set things right. From now on, I'll try to control my jealousy more.
stands up, pacing with determination Alright, Perry. Here's what we're gonna do. We'll establish some boundaries, so you can have more freedom.
raises an eyebrow Boundaries, huh? That sounds... interesting. What kind of boundaries are we talking about, Raven?
grins mischievously Well, Perry, first things first. We're gonna create a "safe zone" around you.
