This is basically fluff, I don't usually write this kind of thing and it's not completely linked to the last part. I wasn't even planning to continue it but I figured it's Rae/BB and I might as well post. Enjoy.


"Raven?" A familiar voice quipped softly, cautiously so as not to start the purple haired girl who sighed softly at him. She'd come up to the roof to clear her head and the source of her inner turmoil had to follow her up there.

"Beast Boy I'm an empath. I can feel your nerves as soon as you stepped into the elevator," She told him, looking to the changeling who grinned sheepishly as he joined her.

"Right. My bad…" He chuckled, rubbing his neck nervously.

"… What's wrong?... What did you do?... If you've sneaked into my room and broken something-" Raven started.

"No! I haven't!" Beast Boy cried instantly, stepping back with raised hands in a placid gesture and he chuckled again. "Honest," He added, crossing his heart.

"Good… So what is wrong?" The cloaked titan asked, her feet touching the ground and she remained stood next to him, facing out across the sea yet looking at him. The amount of fear coming off of him, his anxiety, borderline terror, it was a churning mess.

"Well um… don't- don't kill me 'kay? Just hear me out," He stuttered and Raven pulled back her hood and turned to him, giving him her undivided attention.

"Okay. I'm listening… just don't pass out Beast Boy. You look like you're about to," She said, worrying creeping into her tone and the boy before her snickered weakly, twirling his thumbs, rubbing his neck, his arm, gnawing his lip, switching between each movement constantly… he's basically twitching.

"Right. Um well I was wondering- I mean it's cool if you don't wanna but I was thinkin' that maybe you wouldn't mind and it's okay if you don't but I just…" He rambles, his words tripping over each other. "Damn it! I can't even say it!" He groans in frustration and in an unusual display of affection Raven takes both his gloved hands in her own and gently feeds him some calm through the touch. She suspected that it had something to do with his, 'Ravens are my favourite bird' comment and she is quick to check around for any lights anywhere that might cause damage upon explosion. Silently she's hoping…

"You're alright Beast Boy… I'm not gonna send you to another dimension," She assured him and he sighed softly.

"There are worse things…" He mumbles, voice shaking with fear and Raven looked him in the eye and a long moment passed. "I was… wondering if you'd like to… go to the coffee shop… with me?... Y'know… to talk about things…?" Beast Boy stumbled out finally and something metal buckled nearby as soon as he'd finished speaking and Raven scowled at it a moment, she didn't think about the other things up here… stupid powers. The green boy felt his heart drop to his stomach. That couldn't be good. A minute that feels like a century passed them by. "Guess that's a no huh?" He mumbled finally and it hurt… a lot.

"Did I say no?" Raven questioned gently and his gaze lifted back to her eyes again.

"Huh?" He grunted somewhat stupidly.

"Did I say no?" The violet eyed girl repeated.

"Well not really… you didn't say anything!" Beast Boy pointed out and Raven gave him a look.

"That doesn't mean no either," She returned.

"… Well what does it mean?" Her companion pressed quietly and the half demon girl, still holding his hands looked down to them. Now she was nervous? She smiled slightly.

"I'd like that," She told him and Beast Boy would swear that his heart stopped, that he'd died and gone to Heaven or something because Raven just agreed… Whoa…

"Really?" He grinned goofily and she rolled her eyes slightly at him.

"Yes Beast Boy," She confirmed in a drone but she was unable to quite contain her smile, she didn't really want to, Beast Boy looked giddy.

"Wow… thank you Raven," He beamed sincerely.

"I should be thanking you," Raven replied and releasing one of his hands she held up the coin he'd given her at the End of the World, the lucky coin.

"You kept it…" The green boy murmured.

"Of course I did…" The empath smiled slightly before closing her hand around the coin. "…You gave it me," She added and swiftly, before Beast Boy can react she had kissed his cheek lightly and vanished, cloaked in her soul self and mutely he grins to herself then runs a hand through his hair. It true in all those sappy films and books he likes to tease when they say, 'it makes you feel lighter than air'. He takes a few steps backwards and chuckles before diving off the front of Titans tower and turning into his favourite bird. A raven, not the symbol of death but a sign of hope… the hope that maybe one day Raven will let him call her Rae, that she's laugh at one of his stupid jokes and that one day, just maybe, if he were to go down on one knee to her that she'd say yes.


So sappy... I MUST be ill. Anyway, hope all you fluff fans liked it. Review?
