One Night, One Child
Chapter One
Leaving behind love
Raven sat in her room, eyes closed tightly as she thought about the call she had just gotten.
It had been about a month since the night on the rooftop and what had happened afterwards. Finally she managed to catch her breath and shake her head. She couldn't tell Beast Boy...
"I'll have to leave the titans..." She murmered and nodded, standing up. The month with Beast Boy had been wonderful, though they never talked about what had happened, saying they had gone to fast but were together now and that's what mattered. Raven walked to her door and slowly made her way to the living room,
happy to find that only Robin was there.
"R-robin...I need to talk to you." Raven said almost as soon as she walked in.
"What is it Raven? Did something happen?" RObin asked, immediatly walking over to her as he saw that she seemed a bit distressed. Always being protective over the titans, especially Raven, made him worried at anything.
"In a way...Robin I'm..I have to leave the titans." Raven said quickly, though it pained her to even say it.
"What?! Why!?...DId Beast Boy do something!?" Robin almost shotued, halfway between worry and anger.
He did something...a month ago. Knowledge said in her mind but Raven ignored her distracting emotions.
"N-no it's not his fault. Robin please don't ask questions...I'm sorry." Raven said softly, wrapping her arms protectivly around her stomach.
"How long will you be gone Raven? You can't leave us!" Robin exclaimed then noticed her arms and frowned.
"I don't know how long...I have to Robin!" Raven replied, looking at the ground and Robin sighed, putting a hand on her shoulder.
"If it's for the reason I think then fine..." Was all he said, then looked at her briefly for a moment before walking out of the living room. He had never been good with situation's like that and now was no exception.
Raven stood in the center of her room now, staring at the packed bag on her bed and knowing that she couldn't stay.
So far Robin was the only one that knew she was going...but then again maybe that was for the best. Finally she sighed and sat down, pulling out a piece of paper and a pen from her bag and began to write. It took her about 30 minutes to get the letter right but finally she did and slowly set it on her bed, picking up her bag.
"This is good-bye.." Raven said to herself and sank into the shadows, teleporting away.
Beast Boy was in the living room, playing video games with Cyborg and listening to Starfire ramble on about different Tameranian things.
"And then there is the celebration of Glorflarg that I am sure you all would love!" Starfire suddenly exclaimed, turning a circle in the air happily and causing Beast Boy to look back at her, with a annoyed look.
"Star can you please stop!" Beast Boy exclaimed in annoyance.
Starfire looked hurt for a moment then simply didn't say anything and went into the kitchen, murmering to herself about making the Cursed Florplarg pudding to make him turn purple. Cyborg looked over at Beast Boy and set his controller down.
"Whoa BB what's wrong with you?" Cyborg asked, frowning.
"Nothing okay?! I'm just wondering where Rae is...I havn't seen her all day and it's past lunch..." Beast Boy replied.
"I can not locate Robin either! Perhaps they have gone to the mall of shopping like Raven and I have or they are training?" Starfire caleld from the kitchen and Cyborg nodded.
"Don't worry BB, I'm sure it's nothing..." He replied and picked his controller back up.
Beast Boy shook his head and stood up. "I'm gonna go look for Rae all the same..." He replied and headed off into the hallway.
Soon he came to Raven's room and knocked on the door lightly, but of course got no response.
"Rae?!" He called, knocking again. "Raven!" Beast Boy sighed and opened it a bit, then all of the way. "Not in here..." He commented to himself and saw the note on the bed. "What's that..." He asked, going over and picking it up.
Titans-
I don't really know how to say this, but I'm leaving. By the time you read this note I will probably already have gone but still I needed a way to say good-bye and I guess I just couldn't do it in person. I will try and come see you all at some point but I don't think it will be soon. Good-bye. -Raven
Beast Boy's eyes went wide as he read this, as sorrow overwhelmed him. "N-no..." He murmered and tossed the note down, as anger followed the sorrow.
"SHE CAN'T DO THIS!...Doesn't even give a reason why she left...she doesn't even say good-bye to me!" Beast Boy shouted and collapsed to his knees, not knowing whether to be heart-broken or furious with the girl he knew he loved.
(Okay so there is that and I am posting chapter two reaally soon!!)
