YOU'RE THE CLOSEST TO HEAVEN THAT I'LL EVER BE
------------------------------------------------------------------------
In all honesty, today was just a shitty day. Raiden turned in his newest portfolio to his employer, and had just received his paycheck yesterday. It was a nice hunk of money - but now that he felt accomplished, there was no one to celebrate with. He didn't want to party...no. He was just starting to grow out of the phase where he just went to clubs and pick up random chicks for the night. He was realizing now just how lonely and empty he felt. And now that he felt more lonely and empty, he started to become a bit more depressed. It was really starting to drag him down. Especially after his horrible breakup with Juliette. So why not call Destiny? Her and Beau always made him feel good about himself, and he just absolutely loved spoiling the little guy.
As a light smile curved at the end of the male's lips, he picked up his cell and texted Destiny: "Hey, meet me at the Zoo. I'll pay for all three of us, including lunch." Tossing his phone down on the couch, he walked into his room and pulled a blue shirt over his head. He then removed his pajama bottoms and tugged on a new pair of jeans. Styxx, his wolf, followed the male around as he shuffled around the house to freshen up. Once finished, he placed his sunglasses on the bridge of his nose, tied the laces of his white Vans, and grabbed his keys on the way out of the door. Raiden already started to feel better.
Running back inside, Raid snatched his phone off the couch, then rummaged through his refrigerator and looked to Styxx. "I'm sorry, boy. But you can't go. Would you like steak, or rib-eye in token of my apology?" The shaggy wolf glared at him as Raiden sighed. "Fine. You win." He pulled out both pieces of meat, shoved them in the microwave, and waited. He tapped his foot impatiently. He wanted to be at the zoo before Destiny. As the microwave alarm went off, he quickly pulled out the meal and placed it in Styxx's food bowl. "It better be pretty damn good, because I was planning on having that for dinner." With a huff, Raiden walked out the door once more - with his phone this time.
After locking his apartment door, he raced down the stairs to the ground floor and jumped in his truck. The engine roared to life just before he pulled out of the parking lot and drove off - ten miles past the neighborhood's speed limit. In no time he drove up in the Zoo's parking lot, cussing as some stupid thirty year old man stole his parking spot. Raiden freakin' had the turn signal on to claim that spot! Boy was he pissed...he waited until the man had exited his car before Raiden pressed the gas to make the guy think he was going to run over him. Then he pressed the brakes as the guy ran off and Raiden laughed. He had gotten his revenge, and it was worth the parking spot to see the man scared shitless.
Now he had to find a new parking spot. He drove around, and snagged an empty spot. There was also another empty parking space next to him, and if Destiny got here on time she could find his truck and park next to him. Boy was he smart. With a light chuckle, the male waited in his truck and kept an eye on the parking lot entrance to see when they would be here.
