Secret Admirer
Chapter 1
Sleep Walker
Dark blue cape wafted across pale legs. Footsteps echoed down the corridor, ricocheting off of the panels. A hooded figure floated through time, the music of her thoughts binding her to the dream.
A voice called out to her, breaking the beat of the song. The cloaked girl stopped, but did not turn around. The voice called again, shoving her into consciousness.
"Raven, are you okay?" The disembodied voice asked. Raven turned around to face Beast Boy.
"I'm fine." Her eyes looked out the windows lining the walls to her right. The moon was in full view of the pair, beams tossing shadows wildly throughout the hallway.
"What are you doing walking around?" The green boy asked.
"I could ask you the same thing."
"I heard someone walk by my room and went to check it out."
Raven merely stared at him.
"Hello? Earth to Raven? What is up with you?"
The teen shook her head. "Nothing. It's late; you should be asleep."
Beast Boy was about to retaliate, but his friend had already whisked by him, headed for her room.
The sun didn't rise that morning. Dark thunderheads blocked its rays, casting the city in darkness. A storm was brewing, and it was going to be bad.
Beast Boy woke up late…as usual. Remembering the happenings of last night, he raced to Raven's room and knocked quietly, almost fearfully. Raven was not one who liked being disturbed, especially by him.
"Hello?" A muffled voice called from inside the room.
"Hi, Raven? It's me," He replied. "I was wondering, what was wrong last night?"
"Last night?" She asked.
"Yeah, you were walking around and everything, and I was just wondering why."
"No I wasn't…"
"Yes you were. You were moving really slowly down the hallway towards the living room. Don't you remember?"
"No. Now could you please go away? I have a headache."
The boy didn't respond. Since when does she get headaches? He couldn't remember a single time that she had been sick. Now he was really worried.
Locked in her room, Raven was about to scream with pain. Last night…what had happened last night? She remembered getting in bed, the nightmare, the face, and then morning. Nothing about walking in her sleep.
(I know, no cliff-hanger. Terribly sorry, but I couldn't think of a good one for this chapter.)
