Back in the tower: BB sat with a new book, Of Men and Mice, on the couch,
while Raven made some tea.
"Beast Boy? Would you like some tea?" Raven asked from the kitchen.
"Sure, Rae." He said, not bothering to look up from his book. After a few minutes, as she was stirring sugar into two cups of tea, Raven heard BB laughing.
"What's so funny?" she asked, poking her head out of the kitchen.
"Lenny is so funny! He doesn't set his mind on much, does he?" and he continued laughing.
Raven grew very angry. "And I thought you were more than just an idiot, which goes to show me how much I was wrong. You imbecile, Lenny has a mental illness which makes him slow! I'm almost certain you do too, but do you see me laughing?" she yelled, making the teacups and teapot explode, sending splashes of hot water all over the kitchen floor. She stormed off to her room and slammed the door, leaving BB in shock.
"I'm sorry." He whispered, knowing very well that she could not hear him. The rest of the team walked in, and with one look at BB they dropped the bags they were holding (which were full of wedding decorations, as a practical joke on BB and Raven). Starfire glided over to him and sat down.
"Beast Boy? Is something wrong?" she said soothingly. He stopped sobbing and closed the tear-drenched book he was holding.
"She hates me." He said between sobs. He dropped it on the cushion beside him and hugged his knees to his chest and continued to cry.
"Who, Raven? Why does she hate you?" Robin asked, sitting down next to Star. Cyborg soon followed and sat next to BB, moving the book. BB nodded, twiddling his thumbs.
"It was because of that book. Don't ask. Please, it will only depress me. I'll be in my room. Have a nice life." He said dully, walking off and dragging his feet all the way to his room, closing the door with a click. The three left in the living room exchanged glances.
"I'm going to see Raven." Robin said shortly. "If I make her feel bad, maybe she'll apologize for hurting Beast Boy." He walked off towards Raven's room, stopping short outside her door. He placed an ear a centimeter away from it, only to hear sobbing coming from her also. He lost his confidence and didn't want to hurt her more. Maybe it was both of their faults. Thought Robin. He walked back into the living room only to receive expectant glances from Cyborg and Starfire.
"She's crying too. What can we do? I don't want to make them feel bad, it was probably both of their faults." Robin bowed his head as he finished. Starfire looked at him sadly, and one of Cyborg's machine's beeped.
"Oh, I'm gonna go work off my frustration." Cy said and walked off.
"And I will clean up the kitchen." Said Star.
"And I'm gonna help." Robin said, grabbing her arm.
"Robin-", breathed Star, cut off by Robin placing his lips on hers. She blushed deeply and kissed him back. He hugged her and broke the kiss.
"I've been needing to do that for the longest time now. I'll clean up the kitchen. Can you please go up and speak to Raven, and have some of that 'girl talk' or whatever?"
"Yes, Robin. I will speak to Raven." She smiled at him, planting a small kiss on his cheek before floating off down the hall.
Knocking quietly on Raven's door, Starfire said, "Raven? It's me, Starfire. May I please come in?"
"I'm trying to meditate. Go away. Why don't you go see Beast Boy instead, maybe some of his mental illness will rub off on you and you will forget who I am and never request to see me again." She said coldly.
"But, Raven, Beast Boy does not-"
"I repeat, leave me alone." And Starfire heard something glass smash against the door as a warning for her to leave.
Star walked down the hall to BB's room, and knocked on his door. She heard frantic shuffling and the door opened speedily, with BB standing there hopefully, eyes wide.
"Rae-oh. What do you want Starfire?" he muttered depressingly. His gaze met the floor, and he sobbed quietly.
"I was wondering whether or not I could be of any help. May I come in, or would you rather have another male to interact with?" she asked innocently.
"I don't want to talk to anyone." He shut the door, leaving Starfire feeling bad for the two ex-lovers. Walking back to the living room, she sat next to a contemplative Robin. When she sat down, he flung his arm around her.
"They're hopeless, am I right?" He said. She sighed and nodded.
"Raven is acting most coldly, and Beast Boy is depressingly- depressed. I do not know what I can do to help them." Tears started pouring down her face. "I do not like seeing to people in love and fighting ever so depressingly. I do not like it at all. What can we do Robin?"
I LOVE YOU! Lol, I'm joking. Chapter 8 is now on the way, thank you! Hehehe, I love this one, because I love how they make up! You'll love it too! (I hope)
