Chapter 10: I am the one who cries when you're gone...

Clay woke up from his dream with cold sweat. Beastboy was right beside his bed. A look of concern was etched in his face.

"Clay, are you okay?" asked Beastboy.

"Y-Yeah... I'm fine..." said Clay.

"What happened? You were screaming and calling for help in your sleep..." asked Beastboy.

"I was... having a nightmare..." said Clay.

"What was it about?" asked Beastboy.

"It's nothing..." replied Clay.

"But..."

"I SAID IT'S NOTHING!" yelled Clay.

"S-Sorry dude..." said Beastboy gloomily.

"No, I'm the one whose supposed to be sorry..." said Clay.

"I was irritating you, was I?" asked Beastboy.

"No, you were just concerned." said Clay and he gave Beastboy a hug.(Awwww...)

"I've missed you so much, Clay..." cried Beastboy. A tear slid from his eye.

"Me too, Beastboy. Me too..." answered Clay.

"What happened to you and Robin?" asked Beastboy.

"We were kidnapped by Slade and we were imprisoned. We managed to escape barely but who knows what he's planning..." said Clay worriedly.

"Did he hurt you?" asked Beastboy.

"Yeah... But it's not that bad..." excused Clay.

"Next time I see him, I swear I'll beat the bejesus out of him!" yelled Beastboy. Tears poured from his eyes.

"Why are you crying?" asked Clay.

"I'm not crying! I just got something in my eyes..." said Beastboy and he rubbed his eyes.

"No really, why are you crying?" asked Clay.

"It's just that, I was so helpless when you were gone. I couldn't help you. I'm so useless..." cried Beastboy. Clay cupped Beastboy's chin and gave him a kiss. A simple kiss turned into a hungry one. Beastboy pulled Clay tighter to him and Clay did the same to Beastboy. Beastboy sucked Clay's lower lip which caused Clay to moan. Beastboy's tongue slid inside the warmth of Clay's mouth. He began to lick Clay's gums which caused clay to yelp. Beastboy giggled a bit at the sound of Clay's yelp. Beastboy pulled away and Clay retaliated by sucking Beastboy's neck. A yelp escaped from Beastboy's mouth. Clay finished by licking the sensitive part behind Beastboy's ear.

"Heh... You have no idea how much I've missed that..." said Beastboy.

"Me too... Oh, that reminds me. Where are the others?" asked Clay.

"They went out on a mission. I decided to stay here to look after you." explained Beastboy.

"Awww... That's sweet. Thank you Beastboy." answered Clay.

"Can I get you anything?" asked Beastboy.

"Some water would be nice..." replied Clay.

"One cold glass of water, coming up!" yelled Beastboy. He exited Clay's room and went to the kitchen. Clay realized that he was wearing nothing more than a boxer and a sando.

"Gosh, this is embarassing..." said Clay. He went to his dresser and went to pick up one of his robes and then he noticed something strange in his left arm.

"Huh? Since when did I get this tattoo?" asked Clay to himself as he looked at the strange mark in his arm. "Where have I seen this mark before?" thought Clay as he tried to recollect where he saw it. After a while, he shrugged it off and got dressed. Beastboy arrived with a pitcher of water and a glass.

"Here you go..." said Beastboy as he placed the pitcher on top of the bedside drawer.

"Thanks..."

"I see you already got dressed..." said Beastboy.

"Why? Do you like me more when I'm underdressed?" asked Clay.

"Heh, you bet!" replied Beastboy. Clay blushed at Beastboy's response.

"So, what do you wanna do now?" asked Clay.

"I dunno... Watch TV or something?" asked Beastboy.

"I know! Let's go see the stars..." said Clay.

"Huh?" asked the puzzled Beastboy.

"Trust me! You're gonna love it!" said Clay as he dragged Beastboy to the rooftop.

"Okay, I've seen the stars many times and I don't think there's anything special about it..." complained Beastboy.

"Just watch!" said Clay. After a while, Beastboy saw a shooting star.

"Dude, look! A shooting star!" yelled Beastboy.

"That's not all!" said Clay. And then, a meteor shower took place. Beastboy was breathless at the sight of the spectacle.

"I'm gonna make a wish..." said Beastboy. He closed his eyes and said it in his mind. He reopened it and saw Clay staring at him curiously.

"So, what did you wish?" asked Clay.

"I wished that we'll never be apart ever again..." said Beastboy. He then hugged Clay and kissed him.

"Love you Beastboy..."

"Love you too Clay..."
