A/N: Hey, three oneshots in one go! And one that includes absolutely no angst/drama/sadness! It's a little short but I hope it makes sense.

062. Spring
It isn't often that teenagers can sincerely say they like who they are. It is even rarer for the Titans' green changeling to admit such a thing.
But today, however, Beast Boy thought he could.
Looking back, Beast Boy could honestly say that there weren't a lot of things he would change about his life. He had regrets, as every person does. He wished he had been strong enough to save his parents and Terra. He wanted to find a way to make Mento proud of him but wasn't sure if he ever would. He wished he had actually hugged Raven back after the Malchoir incident.
But a day like this wasn't the time to dwell on painful memories, not when everything was so wonderful. It was sunny, and there was hardly a cloud in the sky. The air was pleasant, not too hot or too cold but a perfect medium. Birds were whistling and chirping happily in the tree Beast Boy was dozing under. The entire city seemed to be at peace as if even Jump City's most notorious villains could not work up the desire to wreak havoc on a day like this.
He could hear Robin's voice from somewhere nearby as the Boy Wonder taught Starfire the intricacies of frisbee. Beside him and also under the shade of the tree, Raven was meditating, her quiet chant lulling Beast Boy into an even deeper state of calm. Cyborg was grilling and had even offered to grill his tofu dogs for him.
It was a perfect day, a day that Beast Boy could even kind-of-sort-of-almost like himself on. As he lounged serenely in the cool grass, he knew the feeling wouldn't last long but he was going to enjoy a break from his insecurities for as long as possible.
After all, Beast Boy thought as he sighed contentedly, he hadn't done too badly so far. Maybe he deserved to feel at peace.
Even if it was only for one perfect spring day.
