Chapter 4- Tea

So it begins. Beast Boy thought sitting on his bed with his list of how to get Raven to smile. He looked at the clock. 6 am, Raven will just be getting up. Beast Boy sprang from his bed and stepped out his door heading for the kitchen.

He opened the door and looked around. There was Ravens kettle sitting on the counter and he knew where the herbal tea was kept.

"I've watched... err... seen Raven make herbal tea loads, I should know how to make it"

And he did. He boiled the kettle put in the tea leaves and made a perfect cup of herbal tea. Then he heard the doors swish open and close. He turned around to see Raven floating towards him.

"What are you doing up?" she asked in a monotone voice.

"Just making you your herbal tea" he replied sweetly.

Raven looked... well shocked would be an understatement.

"Um... thanks" she said taking the herbal tea.

He grinned at her.

"What did you put in it?" she snapped.

Beast Boy jumped back in surprise.

"Nothing... I didn't put anything in it... I promise"

Raven looked at him then took a sip. All her anger melted away in that one sip. It was perfect. Raven sighed.

"So you like it?" Beast Boy asked.

"Yeah thanks BB"

Raven then left the room. She had used Beast Boys nickname. But she hadn't smiled.

Oh well Beast Boy thought I've still got a week.
