'Raven, do not find excuses,' said the lavender cloaked emotion. 'he loves you...truly loves you. You may not have noticed but I have, I see everything!'

"Affection...I don't have time for your mumbo jumbo." Raven grumbled.


(Meanwhile)

"B...beast Boy?" came a small voice from behind him.

"Y...yes Melvin?" he asked, his voice cracked from the lack of use. He quickly wiped his tears away as he sensed her walking closer. She sat down next to him and looked at him.

"Why are you upset?" asked the small girl, her voice dripping with concern.

"I...I just made the stupidest mistake of my life," he answered.

"Can I know what you did?" she asked softly, making sure she didn't hit a nerve.

He shrugged, "I can tell you, doesn't matter anyway. What's done is done."

Melvin sat in anticipation.

"I...I told Raven that I loved her."

"That's great!" cried Melvin. Then she frowned. "But, why is that a bad thing?"

"Because she thinks that I still like my first girlfriend."

"But you don't, do you?" Melvin asked.

"No," Beast Boy sighed. "I don't think I ever did."

Melvin looked up at the sky and swung her feet back and forth.

"You told her that you like her, but did you tell her why, or even what you like about her?"

Beast Boy's eyes opened wide and looked at the small blonde.

"Well...I...I...no, I didn't," he told her as he hung his head in shame.

"Well, now you know what you've gotta tell her."

"Yeah, yeah I do...but I don't know how to tell her."

"Just think about it for a while, either way... I have to go and have a little chat with my dearest mother." Melvin mumbled.
