I recieved a lot of criticism for this, but when looking back at it, I was like... 'Yikes.' This really does need cleaning up. It was one of my earlier pieces, so hopefully I can reshape it so it's better and more believable.
Jealousy - Remade
"R-robin..."
His words fell on deaf ears.
"R-robin..." he tried again; more forcefully this time.
Again, he was ignored.
Lightning danced in the heavens, as Thunder boomed a few seconds later.
Laughing.
Mocking him.
"Please..." he cried desperately, his hand scrabbling for the hem of Robin's shirt.
This time, he gained his attention.
The Boy Wonder turned;
All was silent.
The warm, summer breeze turned icy cold.
"Give it a rest," he snarled menacingly, "stop clinging onto your life. NOBODY likes you."
A lump formed somewhere in the other's adam apple region.
"What?"
Robin gave a cold heartless laugh.
"Do you seriously think anyone likes you?"
He struggled, feeling dizzy as his blood began to seep into the sand.
"R-raven..."
This truly seemed to amuse Robin.
"RAVEN?" He edged his face closer, a smirk present as his whispered, "You don't deserve her. Besides, she probably only gives you the time of day out of pity's sake."
He felt a salty tear slide down his cheek.
"That's a lie..."
"You and I both know that would make perfect sense."
More tears joined those on his face.
"Please... tell Raven I love her..."
Robin paused, watching as the last of his supposed best-friend's liquid-life seeped from his body.
"No."
------------------
"I don't understand...why?" Raven sobbed.
Her eyes were locked on Beastboy's fragile body. The gaping wound in his stomach was obvious, still bleeding profusely.
Robin clasped his teammates hand.
She looked up, eyes full of fear and woe.
"Don't worry, Raven." he whispered reasuringly,"He'll be okay. You just have to hope."
He had lost far too much blood.
It was too late to hope.
Tears freely poured down the psion's cheeks as Cyborg tried to keep his little sister's boyfriend alive.
His best friend.
Starfire usual cheery smile was replaced, by a look of pure and utter sadness.
Beastboy...
Such a lively soul...
Raven let out a choked sob.
WHY WON'T YOU WAKE UP?
Suddenly, all went silent.
A long beep echoed against the walls, as the heart monitor portrayed the truth.
A line.
A single, solitary line.
"23:06," Cyborg whispered, his face crumpled.
No...
"NO!" Raven screamed, pulling out of Robin's comforting embrace, running to the table where her boyfriend lay.
"No... Please, Beastboy, wake up! Please... please, baby! Why won't you wake up? WAKE UP!" Raven sobbed, shaking his shoulders, tears streaming down her ashen face.
"Rae..." Robin whispered, gently, his hand on her shoulder.
"NO!" she screamed, pushing him away, before turning back to the changeling, lying peacefully on the bed.
"Gar..." She whispered brokenly, collapsing on the floor, her body shaking with sobs. She drew her knees to her chest, her hands wrapped around them as she buried her head and cried her heart out.
A single tear slid down the robotic man's cheek as he watched his little sister.
Broken.
Starfire freely cried, silent tears for the loss of a friend.
Robin stood.
Shocked.
No, this was NOT how the plan was meant to go.
He watched Raven.
The girl HE loved.
Crumpled on the floor;
A polar-opposite of what she had been only yesterday.
Strong, silent, someone who carried themselves in a dignified manner.
HE had done this.
And there she was;
Crying for the man SHE loved.
Robin felt numb. This hadn't solved anything - it had only made things worse. No, this definetly how the plan was supposed to work. He gently knelt down in front of the psion, placing his hand over hers, when he noticed something on her finger. Her thumbed it gently.
Raven looked up.
God, she was beautiful.
Her amethyst eyes looked with his masked ones, before fluttering up to watch Cyborg and Starfire maneovure the changeling's corpse out of the room.
She let out a shuddering sigh, trying to calm herself down.
Robin stroked her hand again, his thumb resting on her finger.
She looked down at it, tears shining in her eyes once more. A broken smile crossed her face, as the silver of the band reflected in her violet orbs.
"Just yesterday," she whispered, a teardrop sliding down her cheek, the smile still in place, "Sunset. He proposed to me."
Robin felt the colour drain from his face, as her eyes made contact with his.
He was thankful for the mask.
His eyes would definetly reveal his guilt.
"Why, Robin?" She whispered, the smile long gone, "Why did he have to die?"
She stood up and left the room on that note.
Why?
Because Robin murdered him.
Because...
Because Of Jealously.
Hope that was better... Please review, especially those who did last time!
