Return

The time had finally come. Beast Boy had left for a month and a half to a mission in Africa, and today he was coming back.

We stayed in touch while he was there, but towards the last two weeks we had no contact at all. I missed him dearly. I felt a pain in my chest when I realized that he had done nothing to contact me in those two weeks. I had made myself believe that he was really occupied in the mission and did not have time to reach me.

I sat on my bed staring at the clock as my eyes followed the second hand as each second passed. It was six thirty in the afternoon and Beast Boy arrived at seven, only half an hour to see my love again.

My thoughts drifted off to the green changeling that now owned my heart. For some reason, in those two weeks that we had no contact, I felt strange like something was going on, something was changing. I would out of nowhere become depressed or start acting indifferently towards everything.

My heart pumped at a slow rate, almost like it was about to come to a stop.

I had no reason to feel like this, everything was supposed to be fine. Beast Boy loved me and that was the only thing that mattered. Only I felt that my love was unrequited. I tried many times to get this thought out of my head, especially because it hurt immensely. I had been going out with Beast Boy for almost ten months and in five days it would be our ten month anniversary.

"Raven, come to the common room, Beast Boy will arrive any minute!" Robin's voice came from the speakers as he snapped me out of my thoughts.

I glanced at the clock before heading to the common room, 6:55 pm.

When the doors of the common room slid open for my entry I saw Robin, Starfire, and Cyborg waiting anxiously.

"Our friend shall arrive any time now!" exclaimed the eager Tamaranian princess. "Raven, it is great that you have joined us in receiving the coming home of our dear friend Beast Boy!" she exclaimed some more as her eyes drifted towards me.

"Wouldn't miss it for the world" I replied with a small smile.

"The sensors just detected Beast Boy landing on the roof, he's heading for the common room! Get ready Titans, our teammate's back!" notified our leader enthusiastically.

I headed for the window to admire the dazzling view that our common room had. Suddenly, the doors slid open revealing a cheerful green boy with a tremendous smile on his face. I shifted my body to see him. My heart skipped a few beats and it felt like it had come to a stop.

"Beast Boy!" exclaimed Starfire as she flew towards him to give him one of her super embraces.

"Star…fire…it…is…nice… . " said Beast Boy as he gasped for air for Starfire's hugs always made people lose their breath, literally. She removed herself from the changeling as the rest of the team went to greet him. I walked slowly behind everyone.

"Yo BB! Nice to see you again, man!" shouted Cyborg as he greeted his friend.

"Nice to have you back, Beast Boy" said Robin with a grin.

"Dudes, I've missed you guys so much! It's so nice to be back home!" exclaimed Beast Boy as he returned the greetings to his friends.

I approached Beast Boy.

With every step my dear love was closer to me. My heart raced at a thousand per hour.

His gorgeous emerald eyes met the gaze of my eyes. Our eyes locked instantaneously.

"Beast boy!" I said eagerly, a bit higher than a regular speaking voice, though it was not a shout.

"Oh, Hey Rae" he said indifferently as he returned to speak with the other Titans.

My eyes widened at his reaction. I felt like someone had punched me on the chest as pain sprung throughout me.

"H-how was your m-mission?" I said softly stumbling over some words but trying to keep a straight voice, though I knew my voice was shaky.

"Oh, it was fine" he responded "How have ya been?"

I stared at him perplexed as I tried to understand to why he was being so…I found no words for it, but this was not my Beast Boy.

I cleared my throat slightly, I was tried to fight back the tears of confusion that pleaded to invade my amethyst eyes.

"Uh, fine…" I said my voice shaking slightly as I pronounced each vocal.

Something was wrong. This was not my Beast Boy.

The Titans along with Beast Boy headed towards the kitchen leaving me standing alone in front of the door of the common room.

The tears that threatened to invade my eyes succeeded. I fazed through the floor and transported myself into my room unseen, after all they were distracted.

I landed on the floor of my room, my knees to the ground and the palm of my hands touching the cold floor. My breathing was uneven. It was strong, almost like panting. Tears raced down my cheeks rapidly as I tried uselessly to fight them back. The pain that I had felt in my chest increased, having an empty feeling, almost like a black hole had been formed inside.

My eyes drifted rapidly across the room as I tried to recognize the place. I knew it was my room, but somehow I felt lost. More tears raced down my cheeks. My eyes were stained red and my nose slightly pink. My body was shaking uncontrollably as I tried my best to recover control over myself.

What was happening? Why was this hurting so much? Maybe he was just distracted with the other Titans…

No, I knew I was only trying to comfort myself. The truth was the there was no excitement in him seeing me. The truth was that he was indifferent towards the love I tried to show at his arrival.

I knew things felt different for those two weeks, but I never believed my instincts. They were not even two weeks, they were twelve days.

My life felt empty.

For some reason I felt the end was coming near, and I feared it with all my soul.

To be continued…

And this was the first part of the three-shot!
