Raven has started to show her emotions more clearly and doesn't wear the hood that much; her hair is long, until middle of her back :)


Sun rose and brightened jumped city; warm light went through the open window of Raven's room, the window with light blue curtains that she installed near her bed almost 7 or 8 months ago.

Warm breeze hit young empath's face and she slowly opened her eyes.

'What a horrible nightmare...'

Raven rolled and lied on her back; she wasn't sure if it was just a dream, it all felt so real to her.

the pain, the Blood, the rage...

Young demoness sighed and touched her hurting head, realizing a bandage was wrapped around the gem stone on her forehead.

Tears gathered in her twitching and fearful eyes, she remembered everything so clearly; all the things that happened after all they have been through, How weak she was. she couldn't believe she almost lost him, how she disappointed him but he kept smiling.

'that smile just makes things worse!' Young empath thought, huffing and crossing her arms. A delightfully delicious smell stroked her nose and made her stomach grumble.

Young empath looked around her room and saw a tray on the desk near her bed.

'Could it be from him?' She thought with herself as she picked the tray; it was her favorite breakfast: a plate of Garfield's special bitter chocolate chip cookies and a warm cup of herbal tea. Near all of that was a letter, It was written with a nice and bold handwriting.

-Hey Rae! I hope your feeling better after all that happened yesterday. And... PLEASE don't be harsh on yourself; it was NOT your fault okay? You were just too drained. I'll be fine; I'm getting used to this anyway. So please just enjoy your breakfast; okay? with love and concern: Garfield-

Raven attached the note to her chest and led out a heavy sigh filled with affection 'Oh Garfield...' She wiped the tears off her face; she sniffled softly. 'He really lost his powers and it was my fault...'

She looked at the letter again, a crimson color creeped on her cheeks; she tucked a lock of her hair behind her ear.

'Garfield really cares about me; but... why? Is it because I'm his friend? Do I mean more than a friend to him?...'

Raven shook her head; her head was throbbing badly.

'why am I thinking about this stuff?! does it matter any way? after what happened with Terra, he-he won't love another girl!'

Raven grabbed her head and led out a yell of frustration.

"Why do I even care? He's just my friend, nothing more! And... And... his a goof ball! immature! B-But.. ugh! He has become A LOT more mature now days, and he did save my life from certain death..."

Young empath started to drown in her thoughts; she curled her hair.

"The way he smiles, so... bright and, warm; his deep, husky voice; and his piercing ice blue eyes," She shivered. "So cold and frightening it can scare the fudge out of Trigon even." Raven groaned. "Scare the fudge out of Trigon? Did I really say that? He's goofy side is rubbing off on me!"

She bit her lip as blood ran through her cheeks and she went back to her day dream. "He's chiseled body... I could stare at those abs and chest AAAaaaaLLLlllll daaayyyy." She purred lustfully. "And you can't forget about those sexy scars..." Garfield had truly become quiet masculine a while after their trip to Tokyo.

Each time Raven's eyes met his, her heart pounded on her chest and her face flushed; each time he insisted on her calling him Garfield instead of Beast Boy now that he's not a shape-shifter any more, her heart burned. She could see his sad eyes when his face was smiling, she started to see a new side of him, a side that made her realize he's not who he shows he is.

"Oh shit! I'm literally drooling over him!" Raven wiped her mouth and sighed; "Why do you have to be so awesome Garfield Mark Logan?"

'I liked him before... It started when he protected me from Adonis, or maybe even when he comforted me after that dragon, Malchior, broke my heart; but it had started before. But... the passing four months...'

She bit on the cookie with frustration, saying with a muffled voice "Oh Azar! I'm still thinking about it!"

Raven gulped on the cookie; she took a long sip of her still warm tea. "Garfield has prepared a great meal..." She mused with herself happily.

Young empath lied down on her bed, slowly closing her still fairly heavy amethyst eyes to free her mind off of him and what happened in those four months, things that made every thing change...


She was in a dark room. all she heard was an echo "it's your fault , it's all because of you" the echo was hurting her head and making her suffer, a gray and white fug covered her and wrapped itself around tighter and tighter, her breath getting heavier and heavier.

'I-It's right, it IS my fault. if I didn't made that mistake, Garfield would've had his powers back. if only i wasn't that weak... all of this is because of me.' a single tear dropped from her purple eyes.

Dark sorceress started to lose her breath as her body temperature went higher and her hair started to get white and her skin red. She was sitting in total darkness, she was all alone, she was scared and wanted to yell; Raven opened her mouth but nothing but a gasp came out.

young empath walked straight, having no idea where she was headed in that darkness and fug; her head was empty. She couldn't remember why she was there, how she was there or where she was.

Suddenly Raven saw a body lying on the ground; She walked closer and gasped as she realized who it was. "Garfield?!..." She walked to him hesitantly, on the ground was a boy, awfully similar to Beast Boy; He had a light peach yet fairly tanned skin and dirty blonde hair. His eyes were shut and blood was running from his head.

She ran toward him and sat on her knees. "Garfield... answer me, please..." He slowly opened his eyes; the gorgeous ice blue eyes that could be mistaken with white. Blonde boy raised his hand and placed them on her cheek; tears dropped from his eyes. "Rae... I thought I could count on you..." He said with much difficulty before his hand fell and his eyes got shut.

Raven held him close to her and cried. "GARFIELD!"

Garfield's body started to vanish in Raven's arms "NO! don't take him away!" she yelled. Raven's voice lowered as she pleaded. "please... don't take him away..." She sobbed as the corpse disappeared; young empath covered her face in her hands and cried loudly.

"Raven..." a soft yet deep voice called for her.

.

.

.

"Huh?"

.

.

.

.

"Rae..., RAVEN!" it was really familiar. It felt like home, it felt secure.

.

.

.

.

"Raven, Raven are you OK?"

.

...

Young demoness finally snap opened her eyes that were wet of crying in her sleep; pillows were damp from her tears and she was ready to scream. Raven sat up, nearly bumping foreheads with whoever had called for her, she gasped for air as she tried to calm her racing heart. She was sweating and her eyes were unfocused as she was panting.

Young boy had to wait a few minutes for Raven to regain her breath. It took her a couple of long minutes to realize what was going on and then, she looked at him with wide eyes, her expression shocked.

Raven stared at him; analyzing him from head to toes. The boy from her dream, Garfield Mark Logan; she looked at him, his dirty blonde hair with golden highlights, his cold ice blue eyes that were filled with maturity, his sharp chin and the small, caring and soft smile on his peach tanned skin.

Blonde boy's head, waist and arm were covered in bandages and his face was covered in band aids. Realizing the voice belonged to him, young empath's face got flushed and she stuttered. "G-Garfield!? h-ey, good-good morning! thanks for-for the break fast; it-it was great!"

Blonde boy wasn't wearing a shirt; she could see his fairly broad shoulders, well defined chest and eight pack abs.

Garfield being in shape was no surprise since he was spending his time a lot in the training chamber for so long, she still couldn't forget the first two months when he trained so hard he fainted and was unconscious for an hour; even when she tried to wake him up with her healing.

Her heart was pumping fast again, she wanted to hug him and tell him she's sorry for being weak, for making him lose his powers, but she knew she'll just embarrass herself in front of him. Garfield blushed and smiled at Raven, rubbing the back of his neck. "No big Rae, you're welcome. Are you feeling OK though?"

"what, what do you mean?"

" well..., you were all red and sweating, you were turning into your demon selg and I thought you were pressuring yourself, you do that a lot lately..., you look better now though... but you're still a little red."

"I-I just had a bad nightmare."

"Umm... R-Raven?"

"yes?"

"... DO you wanna go buy some ice cream? I dunno, go out together, just the two of us... I-I mean just so you can breath some fresh air? huh?" Garfield asked her nervously, rubbing the back of his neck.

It wasn't an official date, but Raven was sure of one thing, she needed some fresh air and he would make a great company.

"Sure Beast Boy." Raven exclaimed and smiled at him; He groaned.

Raven gasped and covered her mouth with her palms; "Oh Garfield I'm so sorry; I-I forgot the name bothers you..."

"It's aright Rae Rae! I'm not expecting you to get used to my real name; not so soon. I mean it's pretty weird and I'm looking for a new alias anyway." He chuckled softly "I'm, boy WITHOUT beast."

"OK..."

Garfield gave her a soft smile as he exited; half demon girl's cheeks burned and her stomach flipped. 'I want to tell him how she felt so badly; but, what if I get rejected and that ruins or friendship?...' Raven sighed silently as Garfield left the room. 'some one like him,... will never have feelings for some one like me...'

Raven jumped off her bed. 'I better get ready for my date.'

Suddenly realizing what she had thought, dark girl covered her reddened face with her palms and led out a muffled yell; she looked at herself in her mirror and examined her hair.
