AN: Day one of BBRAE week, here we go. Can't help falling in love with you.
Wise men say, only fools rush in. But I ain't no wise man, hell I ain't even average intelligence. I don't like reading, I don't like writing. I like sports, but I don't have the musculature. I always wanted to play strategy video games, like Dawn of War, or Civilization. But I have not been smart enough to do well. But I shall not fail now, not when she is so close. The center of my love, Raven.
Beast Boy, or by his real name Garfield Logan, was in love with his teammate. Not only was she everything a human boy could want, but everything an animal could want as well. She was smart, strong, responsible, and perceptive. The perfect mother, the perfect mate. His only problem, she was his opposite. He liked jokes, she hated them. He liked video games, she liked to read. He loved her, while she hated him. No matter how close he tries to get to her, try to know her, she pushes him away. But he can't stay away, he can't stop falling in love with her. And it looked like tonight would be one of those nights. Cyborg was taking his precious car for a joyride, Robin was patrolling the city, and Starfire went to the mall. Leaving him, and her all alone in the tower. He could smell her, his animalistic lust longing for her touch. The sheer willpower he needs to prevent himself from losing it and trying to rutt her brains out. Sighing deeply, Beast Boy decides that if he isn't gonna do it now, why do it at all. Afterall he wasn't going to sleep anyway.
Here he was, standing at her door. The door of the beautiful seductress that has taken over his dreams. The girl who can never show an emotion, the literal portal to a demonic invasion. The girl he wanted to call his, and wanted her to call him her own. He wanted her to take his hand, no take his whole life, he wanted to give himself to her entirely. Rushing in, without an prior thought, he knocks onto her door. Hearing her plant something onto her bed, and walk to her door, he starts getting nervous. What if she wouldn't talk to him again. "Yes, what do you want Beast Boy?" Not noticing her open the door, he looks down. Blushing and recollecting his thoughts, he looks up to tell her.
"Raven, I think I like…" Beast Boy pauses.
"You like?" Raven asks, her curiosity not at all peaked.
Gulping before speaking again. "I think I would like to join you for the night." Ravens eyes widen, she didn't expect this. But she quickly reverts to normal, before trying to slam the door shut. "Waaait! I'm having trouble sleeping because of nightmares," She raises a brow, not buying it. "Would it be a sin if I stay?"
"I guess not." Reluctantly letting him in. "I swear if you touch anything, I will-"
"Send me to my own personal dimension of pain." Beast Boy replied laughing. God, even her insults were something he looked forward too. He walked inside, happy, yet not. Silently hating himself for pussyfooting around what he wanted to tell her. Upon walking in, she sits on her bed, and pats the spot next to her. With nothing better to do, he sits down next to her.
"Just to be clear, you are not staying the night. Please try not to disturb me while I'm meditating." Better that than nothing, at least that's what Beast Boy thought. So there he sat, taking the occasional peek at the temptress who stays sitting next to him, in a meditative state. Her soft skin, defined face, and her plump lips. He couldn't help but be tempted, she was a goddess amongst mortals. Anyone who could deny her because of what she was, didn't deserve to even talk with her. "Beast Boy, you know I'm an empath, right?"
"Yeah, so?" Beast Boy's ignorance was blatant on his face, not realizing that Raven read what he felt.
"You're thinking about your nightmare?" Beast Boy nods in confirmation. "So who might you be lusting over in said nightmare?" Beast Boy's face goes into shock at this revelation. He had been busted, damn him and his stupid naivety. "At least tell me what she is like, who's the unlucky victim?" Ravens words burrowed deep into his heart. It felt like a dagger penetrated his chest, with the pain of her comment. He knew it was a joke, but to hear her talking like this. It made him feel like a undesirable bachelor.
"Well, she is gorgeous, and smart, responsible, but… She doesn't like me back. I'll never be smart enough for her. She's perfect, a goddess amongst mortal men, but why would she want me? I'm green! She doesn't like the same things I do! What's a guy to do in this situation! I want her to take my hand, take my whole life too." Beast Boy sighed, getting it all off his chest. "I just can't help falling in love with her." Raven seems to nod.
"If you like her, you should tell her. The worst she can do is say no." With a deep breath in, and a sigh out, Beast Boy speaks.
"Raven, my dear teammate. Will you take my hand," Beast Boy reaches out his hand, "Will you take my life with it?" Raven glances at him, unsure of what to do. "Cause Rae, no matter how hard I try to resist, I can't help but to fall in love with you." When he sees her hesitate he closes his eyes. She rejected him, he knew it. There was no way Rae would ever want him. That is until, he felt a hand grasp his own, and then he knew, she would give him her whole life too.
AN: So let me know what you think, I'll post the next prompt tomorrow. Please tell me what you think, don't be afraid to tear me apart, I take all criticism.
