"hey, beast boy, you ready for bed" robin sat on the edge of the bed, an BB nodded eagerly.
"that's good, so what story will it be tonight" robin said bending down to Beast boy's night stand, an seeing what they have.
"um, I dont know" beast boy said.
"oh, how about the boy who cried wolf" robin asked pulling the book out.
"whats that about" Beast boy asked.
"its about a boy who learns an important lesson about telling the truth, maybe you should see what happens" robin smirked, BB laughed, an nodded so robin sat down an layed back an beast boy rested his head on his on robin's chest an robin wrapped his arms around him an held the book in front of both of them.
"ok...
There once was a shepherd boy who was bored as he sat on the hillside watching the village sheep. To amuse himself he took a great breath and sang out, "Wolf! Wolf! The Wolf is chasing the sheep!"
The villagers came running up the hill to help the boy drive the wolf away. But when they arrived at the top of the hill, they found no wolf. The boy laughed at the sight of their angry faces" beast boy looked intently curious.
"Don't cry 'wolf', shepherd boy," said the villagers, "when there's no wolf!" They went grumbling back down the hill" robin looked at beast boy's face how it wouldn't leave the page.
Later, the boy sang out again, "Wolf! Wolf! The wolf is chasing the sheep!" To his naughty delight, he watched the villagers run up the hill to help him drive the wolf away." beast boy's eye's widened thinking the boy now told the truth.
When the villagers saw no wolf they sternly said, "Save your frightened song for when there is really something wrong! Don't cry 'wolf' when there is NO wolf!"
But the boy just grinned and watched them go grumbling down the hill once more.
Later, he saw a REAL wolf prowling about his flock. Alarmed, he leaped to his feet and sang out as loudly as he could, "Wolf! Wolf!"
But the villagers thought he was trying to fool them again, and so they didn't come.
At sunset, everyone wondered why the shepherd boy hadn't returned to the village with their sheep. They went up the hill to find the boy. They found him weeping.
"There really was a wolf here! The flock has scattered! I cried out, "Wolf!" Why didn't you come?"
An old man tried to comfort the boy as they walked back to the village.
"We'll help you look for the lost sheep in the morning," he said, putting his arm around the youth, "Nobody believes a liar...even when he is telling the truth!" beast boy gasped.
"so, no one helped him when he needed it" Beast boy asked.
"no, because he lied" robin explained.
"wow" beast boy replied.
"yeah, now beast boy what did we learn from tonight's story" robin asked.
"not to lie" BB said looking down.
"very good" robin got up an started to tuck beast boy into his bed an then gave him a kiss on the fore head.
"good night" robin whispered.
"thank you, an good night" beast boy whispered back. robin left the room thinking 'damn, this kid just need's lots of love, it so damn not fair' robin ranted on an on in his head
