So this is my first ever BB+Rae fanfic ever! YAY! (other than that one shot i did) I am a HUGE bb and rae fan, the two were meant for eachother! so...anyway, i will definitely try and update asap; this is no one shot! it's something that came in my head and i just HAD to write it down. please, PLEASE review and critique! you have no idea how much it means to me! enjoy;)

She was reading her book again. That same old book. It had to have been her favorite or something because I was certain she'd finished it loads of times.

She didn't even notice me staring at her. Oh, how beautiful she was when she read. How she tucked that violet hair behind her ear when it fell and tickled her gorgeous face. How she turned the page so gracefully and chuckled to herself at something funny in her book. It was something I'd taken liking to after I realized what I'd been denying since I first laid eyes on her.

I love her.

I love everything about that girl, the one who has never laughed at any of my jokes, the one who despises all video games, the one that remains locked in her room for days without coming out. The half demon daughter of Trigon the Terrible, Raven.

I know it's pathetic of me to write these things down when I should tell her, but I just can't! I mean let's be realistic. What could she ever see in some green, obnoxious vegetarian like myself? Besides, I don't deserve her. In fact I don't think there is a single man on the planet that deserves her.

But more than anything, I want her to be happy, and she seems quite fine on her own. She'd never feel the same towards me. Not even if her life depended on it. Gotta go, Starfire is calling me.

"Friend Beast Boy, Robin and Cyborg await your arrival to give your butt the whooping on the video games! Will you please join us and perhaps convince friend Raven to come out of her room? I am beginning to become concerned for her because she has not come out in two days!"

"Sure Star," the green teen says. He knew that the only reason he'd agreed so easily was because of the excuse to talk to Raven.

"Glorious! I shall tell the others that you are coming." With that, the Tameranian left for the common room.

As Beast Boy made his way to the half demon's room, a thick metallic smell caught his attention. It grew as he approached closer to Raven's room. He also noticed the faint sound of music near.

When he reached the door he said, "Hey Rae, the others and I are getting pretty concerned that you haven't come out for two days now." No answer. "Raven?" Still no answer. "Okay, I'm going to come in now…" Nothing.

Beast Boy transformed into a mouse and slid under Raven's door. As he reverted to a human he could hear the music much more clearly and recognize it as Flyleaf.

Raven was sitting on her bed, unmoving, body turned away from the door. In her ears were small earphones and in her hand and ipod. Unaware of the changeling's presence, Raven sang quietly to herself.

I'm so sick

Infected with

Where I live

Let me live without this

Empty bliss

Selfishness

I'm so sick

…I'm so sick

To Beast Boy, her singing was absolutely wonderful. Who would have known she could be such an amazing singer?

Trying desperately not to startle her, he reached to tap her shoulder. She should have sensed him by now anyway, right?

"Hey, Raven-"

"WAHH!" she gasped dropping her ipod onto the floor.

"Sorry, I didn't mean to frighten you! I thought you sensed me!"

Focusing on catching her breath, she said, "I wasn't paying attention to you! I was listening to-"

"Flyleaf. I know them."

"…You know Flyleaf? Wait how did you know I was listening to them?"

"Sensitive hearing," he whispered bending down to pick up her ipod.

"Sensitive hearing?" she repeated taking note of his long, pointy ears.

"Yep, and I can smell things from quite a distance as well. Just a side effect of…being part animal I guess. Here," he muttered putting the ipod in her long pale fingers. She winced at his touch and snatched her hand back. "Um…sorry…" Beast Boy said eyeing Raven warily.

"…Don't touch me so much," she muttered turning her face away from him to reach for her ipod. She carefully pried it from his fingers, careful not to make any contact with his skin.

Deciding not to acknowledge what had just occurred, Beast Boy offered Raven to come down to the common room with the others.

"No."

"But Rae common, it'll be fun! Cy, Robin and I were going to play video games and you and Star could cheer me on!"

"No." Just as she thought the changeling had given up, he bent down and breathed into her face.

"Please?" he said placing a finger under her chin and tilting her head up so that their faces were inches apart. His lips were set in a delicate smile, and his beautiful green eyes were all Raven could think about. She couldn't breathe.

"Um…maybe…"

He batted his long eyelashes playfully and whispered again, "Please Rae?"

"…Fine."

"Woo hoo! The others will be glad to see you! I mean, you haven't been down for food in days-"

"SO? Maybe I wasn't hungry! Why are you all over my case?"

Bewildered he wondered if it was something he'd said. "Raven I…"

"Just get out!" she screeched her eyes beginning to glow white. The changeling knew it was time to leave.

With that, he stood and high tailed it out of there!

Raven sighed. She hadn't meant to be so defensive. She just didn't want anyone to realize her lack of eating. She couldn't let anyone figure out what she was going through right now! She had to take precautions and be more careful. Now she'd have to fake her eating. Great. As if she'd needed to see that disgusting food again! Being around it would be horribly tempting.

The half demon glanced down at her wrist. Still bleeding. He didn't even notice, she thought.

The Titans could never know why. They would never understand. With that, she placed the earphones back in her ears and began to softly sing to herself again.

You sink into my clothes...

This invasion makes me feel

Worthless hopeless sick…
