Chapter 7

Four days passes since Raven had healed Beast Boy. He was now able to finally walk around the tower. Beast Boy entered the Common Room and saw all his friends, save for Raven doing their own thing. Raven was wearing an open button-up shirt that was draped around his shoulders. He still had his gloves, pants, and shoes, but because he still had to wear bandages around his chest. Cyborg told him it was best to not constrict it and let air breathe to it.

Beast Boy walked over to the fridge and looked to see if there was anything to drink. He picked up a root beer and stood up again, although he still clutched his side. The pain was still resonating in him. Raven may have managed to greatly speed up the recovery, that doesn't mean he could do whatever he wanted. He popped open the soda, and took a sip. When the others heard the soda pop open, they all got up from the couch to greet him.

"Oh friend, it is most wondrous to see you being the up and about," Starfire said excitedly. She wanted to hug him, but she saw the bandages wrapped around him and refrained herself from doing so.

"Yeah, you sure you should be up Beast Boy? I mean don't you think you should rest some more?" Robin asked, worried about his friends well being. However he was proud that Beast Boy would try so hard, regardless of what other people tell him.

"Yeah, besides If I stay in my room anymore, I'll go crazy," Beast Boy replied. He took a sip of his soda enjoyed the taste of it. The day after Raven healed him, Beast Boy was allowed to stay in his own room. But he was still on mandatory bed rest. After a moment of looking at his friends he sighed. "Anyway guys, where's Raven, isn't she usually out here?"

The other Titans looked at each other for a moment before they all looked at him again. "Raven's been in her room since yesterday afternoon. And she doesn't seem to want to come out," Cyborg explained.

Beast Boy had a curious look on his face. But quickly dismissed it as something she normally did. He took another drink of his soda and finished it. After breathing out the after taste he spoke again. "So you guys know why she is there? She upset again or something?" Beast Boy walked over to the trash can and threw his can in it.

"No, none of us have inquired as to why Raven has become so distant, so suddenly," Starfire replied worried for Raven's wellbeing.

"We were actually wandering if you knew anything. She started to seem more distant than usual right after she healed you," Robin stated hoping Beast Boy could shed some light on the situation.

Beast Boy remembered what had happened when she was healing him. She seemed quite angry at him, but also sad. "No, I don't," Beast Boy said to his friends. He wasn't lying, but at the same time wasn't telling the truth. He turned on his heel and proceeded to leave. The other Titans were quizzical as to why he was leaving all of a sudden.

Yo B, you going somewhere man? I mean you just got out here," Cyborg asked curiously

"Yeah, but I've been crammed in my room for the past few days. I'm gonna head outside, get some fresh air," Beast Boy told his friends. They understood and watched him leave.

Beast Boy roamed the halls with his arms at his side as he made his way to the roof. As he walked he could not help but think of why Raven was locking herself in her room again. He knew that it could have something to do with him, but he didn't want it to be. He found the stairs that led to the roof and trekked them upwards so he could feel the outside air for the first time in days.

Beast Boy reached the roof and could feel the cool breeze against him. It chilled him for a moment, but only a moment. He walked to the edge of the roof and looked at the bay and the city before him. The sun was out so it started to warm him up. He took in a deep breath and then breathed out slowly. He felt comfortable, the sea air blowing in his face, the sun keeping him warm. It was a good way to get air.

While he was in a moment of serenity, thoughts and memories came into his mind. He thought of his friends, and all their time together. How each of them had progressed, their battles, everything. His thoughts soon turned to the last month, how he and Raven had been acting towards one another. He had not done anything with her and they had barely spoken to each other. He knew that Raven was probably enjoying the quiet, but after her outburst at the infirmary, he wasn't sure anymore.

He knew that Raven thought of him as a teammate, but she had called him a friend. Did that mean that they were friends? But if that were true why she had always avoided him, and looked like she was enjoying him not pestering her anymore. However, he could not avoid the fact that she said that to him, and even helped him, when he really did not want it. Beast Boy sighed and continued to look at the horizon.

He had confessed to Cyborg that he liked Raven, more than he ever thought he would. And Cyborg had told him to tell Raven how he felt. Perhaps it's time he did that, but he just wasn't sure. He looked back at everything Raven had done; a lot of it had been painful. The incident had finally broken him. But he also remembered all the good times they had.

Beast Boy smiled and decided that enough was enough. He didn't care if he said he was done with Raven, it was time he told her the truth. Looking at the horizon one last time, Beast Boy took it all in and left to go back in the Tower.

Beast Boy walked through the halls of Titans Tower wanting to go talk to Raven now, but he knew that she did not want to be disturbed. He also felt tired from walking around, since he did not have his full strength yet. So he decided to head back to his room and take a nap. Once he was at full strength again, he would be able to confront Raven. He entered his room and went to his bed.

A couple of hours later Beast Boy emerged from his room well rested and feeling much more energized. He put on his button-up shirt over his shoulders again. He walked to the Common Room where he saw Robin, Starfire and Cyborg eating dinner.

They had ordered a pizza since no one felt like cooking. He walked to the table and was greeted by his friends. "Hey BB, wanna sum pizza?" Cyborg asked as he handed Beast Boy a plate.

"Sounds good to me," Beast Boy replied. They had gotten all sorts, including a vegetarian pizza as a thank you for the battle with Ternion. Robin and Starfire also managed to convince Cy to lay off him on the vegetarian taunting until he finished recovering.

Beast Boy took a couple of slices and sat down at the table. "So Beast Boy, how you feeling?" Robin asked.

"I'm alright, just a little sore," Beast Boy replied after swallowing a piece of his pizza.

"Please Beast Boy tell me, are you still in pain?" Starfire asked worried that he will not be able to do everything he wants to anymore.

Beast Boy looked at her and smiled, "Only a little Star. But I'm sure it'll pass soon."

"That is most wonderful. Soon we shall do 'hang out' as we once had," Starfire said gleefully.

"Still do push yourself, just let it heal naturally," Robin put in. After he said this the Common Room doors opened to reveal Raven. The others saw her enter and had smiles on their faces, except for Beast Boy.

Raven walked over to the kitchen and started to make herself an herbal tea. After a couple minutes she poured her tea into her cup and walked over to the table. The Titans looked at her and still had smiles on their faces.

"Hey Raven, haven't seen you around for a while," Robin stated wandering how she would react.

"I've been busy," Raven stated simply as she sat down next to him with a plate of pizza in front of her. She looked up at her friends seeing their smiling faces. It made her give a ghost of smile as well, that is until she saw Beast Boy, who was not smiling at all. Her smile went back down to a stoic line, and she started to eat.

It was quiet while they ate, and Robin, Starfire, and Cyborg were uncomfortable. Cyborg finally decided to say something. "So Beast Boy, did you thank Raven for fixing you up enough to walk around?" Cyborg asked

"Yes," Beast Boy stated plainly. He just continued to eat his pizza.

"No you didn't," Raven said. She thought she had heard him say it, but she was not for sure.

Beast Boy looked at her incredulously. "Raven what are you talking about, I did," Beast Boy stated.

Raven's eyes narrowed and she was getting upset that he was lying. "No you didn't Beast Boy. I healed you and left, without getting so much as a word from you," Raven said as she put down her pizza and looked at him.

"Raven I did," Beast Boy stated, curious as to what Raven was talking about.

"Beast Boy, just stop, I don't care if you didn't say "Thank You," but I will not tolerate being lied to, especially in front of everyone," Raven said angrily. She got up and left abruptly. If there was one thing she could not stand it was lying.

Beast Boy was wandering where that came from. He had said thank you to her, but it's possible that she may not have heard him. Now he felt really low. Raven had gone out of her way to help him, and she thinks that he is not grateful for it. "Maybe you should go apologize?" Robin stated. "You know that she has been upset the last couple of days. And I think this just added fuel to the fire."

Beast Boy looked at Robin and said, "First, I didn't know she was upset, at least not until you guys told me. And second I did tell her, not my fault she did not hear me."

Cyborg looked at him and tapped him on the shoulders. "Still I think you should go "talk" to Raven, apologize and say thank you, so that she can hear it this time," Cyborg told him emphasizing on 'talk.'

Beast Boy knew what he was trying to do, and he thought that it was probably a good idea. "Alright, I'll see you guys later," Beast Boy said to his friends as he got up from the table and walked to the Common Room doors.
