"Why does he always have to do that?" Beastboy thought as he paced through his messy room. "I mean, I know the guy doesn't like me, but what he just did was unforgiveable." Relivings of the not-so-long-ago memories flooded Beastboy's mind. How furious Robin looked, how he raised his hand as to hit Beastboy, how he said the words 'you're useless' right in Beastboy's face. Beast boy started to break down. It started as a single tear and a slight shake of his shoulders, but it soon then turned into full on sobs and screaming out. This was a normal routine for Beastboy now. Ever since the incedent happened, things have been going down hill.
About three months ago, although to Beastboy it feels like it was yesterday, the team were fighting Mad Mod. He took down everyone of Beastboy's teammates like he knew what they were going to do next. Slowly, Mad Mod turned to a very frightened Beastboy. Mad Mod was probably one of the trickest villians they fought. With all his illusinations and mind tricks. But Beastboy wasn't going to show his fear this time. He was already the runt of the team and if he didn't fight now, everyone will get even more upset with him. So Beastboy manned-up and let out a low growl.
"Oh ho ho lets not get ahead of ourselves, now." Said Mad Mod while smiling with his yellow teeth. Then Mad Mod's face lit up like he was punched by an idea. "I almost forgot!" Mad Mod said while hitting himself on the head at his 'aha' moment. "I've a surprise for you!" The villian spoke, jumping up and down, like Starfire when she sees kittens. Beastboy was a little surprised, but he didn't show it at all. "What?" Beastboy said in a very low growl. "Oh no, don't be a bad little-" Mad Mod looked at Beastboy up and down "What ever animal you are." The crazy old man said, finishing his sentence. Beastboy wasn't as offended as he should be because he, himself still wonder what kind of animal he is.. If he even is one.
"Oh I know you're in here somewhere." Mad Mod mumbled to himself, while ferociously digging in his satchel or 'man purse'. Beastboy sat there and wondered why he didn't take down Mad Mod right now? Maybe it was because he was interested in the 'surpise' in stored for him. And a huge surprise it was._
Beastboy was still in his room physically shaking from his normal breakdown. He heard a slight knock on the door. He hadn't wanted to talk to anyone at the moment, so he just ignored the knock. He heard the knock again. He ignored it a second time, hoping that the person will finally go away. He got on his bed and got comfortable, ready for sleep when he heard the knock again. "Gosh, can this person not take a hint?" Beastboy thought as he threw his comforter back and stalked towards the door.
He smelled the scent of the person behind the door before he reached it. Beastboy froze in his tracks. "It couldn't be" Beastboy thought. "He has some nerve." Beastboy slung the door open, expecting to see Robin on the other side, but he saw nothing but air. He sniffed around a bit. He sniffed around a bit and still smelled Robins scent, but not as much as he did before. Quickly, Beastboy closed the door to his room, not wanting to see Robin never the less.
Robin madly stomped to his room, door quickly closing behind him. He threw himself on the bed and covered his face with his gloved hands. Why? Why did he have to do that? Robin thought to himself. "This time I went too far." Thought Robin. "This time I really hurt him." Robin thought to when Beastboy accidently broke one of the mugs. Robin thought of it as a chance to bring Beastboy down. But as Robin was yelling at Beastboy, he felt the very emotions that made him this way towards him. He didn't know why he felt these emotions, or why he acted that way, but as soon as he cooled down, he always regretted everything, but never apologizing. This time though, he took it too far. Even his team mates where afraid of Robin.
Most of all though, he really hurt Beastboy. Down to the core. Every since Beastboy lost his powers during the fight with Mad Mod three months ago, Beastboy had felt like a burden to the team and felt as though he should leave. Everyone but Robin pleaded him to stay, even Raven. While Robin didn't say anything. This time Robin had really squeezed lemon juice on the wound and rubbed it in. And he knew he had to apologise for that one.
Robin got up and treaded towards Beastboy's room quietly. When he approched he took a deep breath. He knocked once. No answer. He knew Beastboy was there, because he had just heard him screaming through one of his break downs. He knocked twice. Still no answer, but he heard something get into the bed and pull up the comforter. He knocked a third time. He heard an dramatic sigh and the comforter being pulled back.
"Could you really do this, Robin?" He thought nervously to himself. "Yes I can.". He heard footsteps get closer to the door. The all of a sudden the stopped. Then he heard faint sniffing. Damn! He forgot about Beastboy's animal side, which he amazingly still have after Mad Mod. Robin got very nervous and quickly looked aroud for a place to hide.
He turned a corner just as Beastboy's door flushed open. He heard one more foot steps and more snififng. Robin held his breath through the whole process. When Beastboy went back into the room, Robin let out a deep sigh. He had gotten nervous and frieghtened. Robin decided to try again tomorrow and retired to his room.
