A/N I wrote this to show that even though they are different on the outside, they are very much the same on the inside. It's kind of fluff but I think that it has meaning behind it. I working on my writing to try and get it longer but for now tell me what you think of it and what you think i could do to make it better. Thanks for reading.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I put on my mask that was almost impossible to see through. It was like the happy side of a theater mask. Smiling and happy, all the time hoping it will make my pain go away. Making jokes and being stupid just hoping someone would see through it.
Leaving the only home I knew because I was different. Falling for someone when I knew in my heart that it wouldn't last. Letting her tear me to pieces, when I saw what was going to come. Loving someone I knew wouldn't ever be able to love me back. After all these years though, I was good at hiding what I really felt. Never once did I slip and let my friends, my family, see I was falling apart inside.
As I get up to face another day I put on my mask that I think looks like the sad side of a theater mask. My mask of non-feeling that no one has yet to see through. If I don't my powers could hurt someone and the last thing I want is for that to happen, especially to my friends, my family. I hide everything behind the mask I wear. My pain, my fear, my love.
The pain my so called father and "first love" instated on me. My fear that my friends will one day leave and forget me. My love for someone who I know will never feel the same, for I have never given him reason to.
After all the times I pretended I didn't care. After all these years I was good at hiding the war in my head. I just hope that someone will be able to see that I'm falling apart inside.
Raven was sitting on the roof, letting her feet hang off the side. She could feel that someone had sat next to her and, not want to turn away from the sunset, started talking to tell who it was.
"Hey"
"Hi"
It was Beast Boy. They sat in silence for a while, both enjoying a beautiful sight. Beast Boy broke the trance they were both in and said the last thing on earth she thought he would.
"I love you Rae." It was so casual, like he had said it a million times before. Like it was the most normal thing in the world for him to do. It was though, he had never used those words before but if she listened he said it all the time. So she replied back, natural as can be,
"I love you too Beast Boy"
They might both have masks that they put on so they were never hurt by the ones they loved and they never hurt them back, but maybe just maybe the love they had for one another will make the mask crumble to show what was behind so they could help the other heal.
