Chapter 4: Telling The Others
Beastboy's Point Of View
Beastboy woke up, and then he tried to roll out of bed, but realized that there was a weight holding him down. He opened his eyes and realized that Raven was in bed with him. 'Why is she in my room?' Beastboy thought. Then he looked around and realized the dark blue bed, and the black walls, and all the book, and statues. 'This is NOT my room . . . it's Raven's' Then thoughts of last night came flooding back into his head, Raven being upset, and hardly eating anything at dinner, then he went to check on her and they talked about her father, then she was crying into his chest while he hugged her, then the most surprising thing, that they kissed, and then they were dating. 'Wow, never in a million years would I think that Raven liked me back.' He thought smiling to himself. Then Raven took in a deep breath and sighed. "Good morning Beautiful." He said to Raven while smiling down at her. She jumped out of his arm and took a fighting stance. "Rea, it's okay. Don't you remember?"
She ignored the question. "Why are you in my room? In my bed for that matter?"
He slowly got out of the bed and rose his has, as to show her he meant no harm. "Rea, it's okay you were the one who asked me to stay in here, I wouldn't have done it if you did not ask." Beastboy stated.
"No, I did n . . . so that wasn't a dream last night that I had?"
"If the dream was of you being upset, and I came in after dinner to talk, then we kissed, and then we were dating. Then, no, it was not a dream." Beastboy said, with his hands still raised.
"I'm sorry, Beastboy." She said lowering her hands, and relaxing out of her fighting stance. "I'm just used to having dreams like that and then waking up in the morning to be disappointed that no one was with me. I used to be really hurt by it, and then I learned to block it out like all the other emotions."
'She's been having dreams about me?' Beastboy thought, on the inside he was all giddy, but decided against showing it so nothing else would blow up. "It's okay, Rea. I'm sorry I upset you, I never meant to, I just wanted to help." He said with a sympathetic look on his face, and walking over to Raven, and wrapping his arms around her waist. At first she tensed, the she relaxed and returned the hug.
"I'm still sorry, Beastboy."
"It's fine. You hungry?" She nodded. "Then let's go get some breakfast."
"I hope you know that just because we are dating now, that doesn't change the fact that I still eat meat." She looked up at him jokingly.
"I know, I didn't expect you to." He said as they walked through the doorway to the kitchen. He had had his left arm around Raven's waist. Starfire, Robin, Cyborg, had all noticed it, and were staring at his arm. Beastboy noticed, and quickly removed his arm, and rubbed the back of his neck, and gave them a nervous laugh. Raven gave them all a glare that screamed. 'NOT NOW!' they all went back to what to eating. Beastboy cooked up some tofu bacon, while Raven got herself a plate of the sausage and eggs, and went and sat at the table, and ate. Within a few minutes Beastboy was sitting across from her, of course, eating his tofu bacon. Everyone was staring at the 'unknown couple'. They ate like nothing was different than any other morning. When everyone was done the put their plates in the sink and walked towards the living room.
Raven started to walk towards the living room, and then someone gently grabbed her arm to stop her. She turned around, it was Beastboy. She raised an eyebrow. "Yes, Beastboy?"
"Are we going to tell them? They already look suspicious."
"They are."
"How do y . . . oh, yeah, the empathy thing, right?"
"Yes."
"So, are we going to tell them or not?"
She paused, and thought. "Yeah, we can tell them."
They walked over to the living room, and Beastboy said. "Guys, we uh . . . we um . . . need to tell you something."
Starfire was the first to speak up after the pause. "Whatever the something of telling is, we will be able to handle it friend Beastboy and friend Raven."
"Yeah, okay we are um . . . we are like . . . why don't I just show you guys instead." He walked over to Raven, and wrapped his arms around her around her waist, and kissed her right on the lips. Raven blushed, and a light bulb exploded. Then Beastboy pulled back, and had a sheepish look on his face.
Cyborg was the first to say anything. "Man, I knew when you walked in with your arm around her waist something was up."
"Beastboy, come with me." Raven said monotonously.
By the time they had gotten to Raven's room, she was practically dragging Beastboy by his ear. She turned around and glared at Beastboy saying. "What the hell was that for?"
"Well, I couldn't think of any other way too tell them, I was stammering too much just to say it, and with as nervous as I was getting I couldn't think of asking you. I'm so sorry, Babe."
"Beastboy, I need to go to Nevermore."
"Whose-a-ma-what-more?"
"Nevermore, where all my emotions are. I need to get Rage under control."
"Oh, Yeah, I forgot about that. That's in your mind, right?"
"Yes." She said curtly.
"Do I need to leave?"
"Yes."
"Okay, Babe, and I'm still sorry."
'I know, Beastboy. I will come get you when I'm done."
"Okay. " He said while walking out of her room.
In Nevermore
Raven's Point of View
When Raven got into Nevermore, she saw rage already in front of her. She looked exactly the same as Raven, but she had a red cloak and four red glowing eyes. "Rage, Do I need to chain you to the wall again?"
"Maybe." Rage replied snidely.
"Do I really need to get Courage over here?"
"Maybe."
"Really? Because between, her and I we could take you down."
"Really? Go ahead and try."
Raven concentrated for a brief second then Courage appeared next to Raven. "Again?"
"Again." Raven replied with a smirk. "She thinks we can't take her."
"Oh, Really?"
"Yes."
"Okay, let's go." Raven charged to the right, and Courage to the left. Raven teleported into the ground and came up behind Rage. And by that time Rage had ignited her fists with a red glow. Raven sent her soul self and wrapped it around Rage. Rage quickly broke free and had turned around to face Raven. But Rage hadn't counted on Courage Sucker-Kicking her in the back of her head. By the time rage realized what had happened, she fell to the ground and blinked twice, then blacked out.
When she woke up she was chained to the wall and Raven and Courage were standing in front of her. Raven asked. "Have you learned you lesson?"
"That wasn't fair, she Sucker-Kicked me."
"Okay, I'm going to leave you chained here for a while." Then Raven turned to Courage and said."Thanks again, Courage"
"No problem, I was getting tired of her anyways."
Back in Titan Tower
Raven's Point of View
Raven opened her eyes and she was back in her room. She used her empathic powers to locate Beastboy. "Good. He is in his room.' She walked down the hall to Beastboy's room and knocked. "It's open." She heard Beastboy's voice call.
She walked in and he was off his bed in less than a millisecond, or so it seemed and was hugging her. "Okay, Beastboy, enough."
Beastboy released her and said. "You get Rage taken care of?"
"Yeah. She's chained to the wall in her realm."
"How'd you accomplish that? Isn't she like your angry demon side?"
"Thanks, Beastboy, that makes me feel good that you only see me as half demon." She said as she grimaced.
"Sorry, Babe."
"And yes she is my demon side. I used Kick-Ass to help me."
"Kick-Ass?"
"Courage. Kick-Ass is my nick-name for her."
"Oh, okay."
"Yeah, by the way what time is it?"
"Huh? Oh, almost noon."
"Really?"
"Yeah, why would I lie?"
"Point. Let's go see a movie, or something."
"Yeah, okay, let's go." Beastboy said as he took Raven's hand in his. And to his surprise she did not pull away.
