Destined For Each Other

Chapter 12

If You're Not the One

A/N: OMG! Sorry you guys! I know I'm supposed to be working on "Master of Puppets" but I just had an epiphany and I just HAD to write this story!! LOL!! Anyways, hope you guys enjoy this one! I sure did! I'm writing this at 3:00 am in the morning!! XD

Disclaimer: I do not own Teen Titans or anything at all mentioned in the story

Beast Boy was walking down the Tower's hallways like he was walking on clouds. Today was the day, Beast Boy was finally going to ask Raven out. No not on just a date, because over the course of three years after Tokyo, he and Raven have gotten closer. A Lot closer, almost attached to the hip. Out of all the Titans, they were the closest (not including Robin and Starfire who were already a couple).

Beast Boy had it all planned out since two months after returning from Tokyo. Back then he realized that he no longer had just a little crush on his empathic teammate; he was heading into some new waters. He realized if he wanted the girl of his dreams, he would have to sharpen up his attitude. For an entire month he didn't say a single joke. He didn't pester Raven into joining the Titans' activities. He would play video games quietly in his room. He would refrain from arguing with Cyborg over meat and Tofu. And he didn't say anything more than a friendly hello and warm smile to Raven whenever he saw her. At first Raven was suspicious and paranoid, thinking it was all part of some stupid prank, but after the second week, she began to feel…lonely.

Currently Beast Boy was watching a nature documentary of the wild African predators when Raven entered the common room and noticed the maturing Beast Boy relaxing on the couch.

"Hey there Raven" Beast Boy greeted happily before turning back his attention to the T.V. screen

"Ok, what's going on here?" Raven asked the green changeling as she hovered over to him.

"Whattya mean?" Beast Boy asked confused

"This whole 'not acting like yourself' routine" Raven clarified

"Oh! Nothing's going on. I just felt like I should start to grow up and move on with life" Beast Boy answered with his signature grin, the only childish trait he kept.

"Oh come one Beast Boy! You haven't told a single joke, you barely play your stupid video games, and you barely say more than two words to me!" Raven explained growing annoyed

"Well, you always said that you wish I would grow up, so now I am" Beast Boy responded

"Yeah, but I didn't mean so drastically and quickly" Raven said emotionlessly

"Then what did you mean?" Beast Boy asked, completely interested in where this conversation was going

"I-I don't know! Just…stop acting so…mature!" Raven shouted, not angrily, but merely uncertainly

"But isn't that what you want Raven? Don't you want me to be mature?" Beast Boy asked innocently.

"Well, not if it means that you're going to keep ignoring me! And since do you care about what I want?" Raven asked, turning the tides on Beast Boy. Beast Boy quickly looked away to hide his cheeks that were growing pink. He coughed a bit as an excuse to turn away, before he looked back a t Raven with a warm smile.

"Cuz Raven, I wanna be closer to you. You know, friendship-wise. Look let's be honest, we've never really been the closest friends" Beast Boy said with a sad smile. Raven looked down and nodded her head shamefully. He was right, Raven and Beast Boy would constantly bicker with one another, making it look as if they were enemies rather than teammates.

"So I figured it was mostly my fault because I'm always bothering you" Beast Boy chuckled

"No, it was also my fault. I've never actually been…easy to deal with" Raven added. Beast Boy chuckled again

"Anyways, I'm willing to make the change, if you're willing to let me" Beast Boy offered

"Fine…but on one condition."

"Shoot"

"Tell me…" Raven started shyly

"Tell you…?" Beast Boy urged her on

"Tell me…a…joke" Raven said blushing under her hood. Beast Boy smiled

"Ok. Knock knock!" Beast Boy started enthusiastically

"Who's there?"

"Orange"

"Orange who?"

"Orange you glad I told you a joke?" Beast Boy laughed softly at his own joke

"That was awful" Raven responded in her trademark deadpan. Beast Boy's ears drooped down sadly

"But I'm glad some things don't change" Raven said quietly as she gave Beast Boy a small smile. He grinned widely in response before sticking out his hand.

"Friends?" Beast Boy asked hopefully

"Friends" Raven answered as she shook his hand. Little did they know, that handshake was the beginning of a life-long friendship.

A couple years past by, and all the Titans had matured dramatically. Beast Boy matured the most, more specifically, in his physical appearance. He was no longer the short one of the team, he was now tied up with Robin, and he was far more muscular as well. His face was that of a handsome adult male. His jaw was broader and his face was longer, completely dropping his boyish facial features. His hair remained the same spiked back style. And as much as Raven hated to admit it, he was by far the most attractive male on the team. Speaking of Raven; Beast Boy and Raven were no longer friends. They were the closest friends that two people of the opposite sex could be without actually being in a relationship. It was all part of Beast Boy's plan.

Beast Boy was freshening up for his weekly Friday "Not-a-Date" night with Raven. Each week they would both decide on where to go and on what to do. Tonight was Raven's turn. She decided on just settling with a quiet walk in the park. Beast Boy smiled as he knew that today he would finally ask her out. He was completely confident. Logic was on his side, because he and Raven were just that close. She even let him enter her room without getting upset. And he was the only one allowed in her room. That made Beast Boy smile, knowing that Raven trusted him the most. It even showed on missions. They would always have the other's back and when needed, they were always ready to sacrifice themselves for the other. Of course this went for the rest of the team, but there were a few major incidents in where both Beast Boy and Raven nearly gave their lives against Slade for each other. Beast Boy's smile only grew bigger at the thought. He finally finished getting dressed and heading out for the door towards Raven's room. Upon reaching her door, he knocked on it twice, then stopped briefly then knocked three more times, a secrete knock they both shared with each other. Raven immediately opened her door, her face completely emotionless, but as soon as she saw Beast Boy, she smiled.

"Ready to go Rae?" Beast Boy asked as he offered his arm. Raven nodded before linking her arm in his as he escorted her out the main entrance to the Titan's Tower. He walked out before opening the passenger door to his rented Corvette C6 for Raven.

"Show off" Raven rolled her eyes, he smiled as she entered the door and buckled herself in. The drive over to the park was quiet, but comfortably quiet. Beast Boy whistled to the beat of the song on the radio, which was currently "Hey Soul Sister" by Train.

"Your lipstick stains, on the front lobe of my left side brains. I knew I wouldn't forgetcha! And so I went and let you blow my mind!" Beast Boy sang along to the song as Raven rolled her eyes and looked out the window trying to avoid his eyes to prevent herself from laughing.

"Oh come on Rae! You know you wanna sing along" Beast Boy winked as he nudged her softly. Raven sighed in mock annoyance.

"No thank you" Raven replied

"Oh come on! The best part is coming up!" Beast Boy tried to persuade

"Fine!" Raven grunted as Beast Boy pumped and arm into the air

"Hey soul sister! Ain't that mister mister on the radio, stereo! The way you move ain't far ya know?" Raven sang along to the chorus. Beast Boy laughed warmly as Raven let herself smile

"Hey soul sister! I don't wanna miss a single thing you dooooooooo………tonight! He-ey! He-ee-eey! He-ee-eey!" They both sang along together. Beast Boy couldn't help but feel all warm and fuzzy inside as he heard Raven sing angelically

"You know, you gotta a really pretty voice Rae" Beast Boy complimented. Raven blushed before giving a shy "thank you." After a few minutes after the song ended, Beast Boy got tired of listening to the annoying Disk Jockey's conversations. He turned down the volume and thought of a topic to start up with Raven.

"Hey Rae, what's the one place you want to visit? Like really badly?" Beast Boy asked happily. Raven pondered it for a second before finding her answer

"I would have to say…the Gotham City Library" Raven answered, Beast Boy chuckled

"How did I not guess something like that?" Beast Boy playfully smacked himself on the head

"Well, for your information, they don't just have books. They also have movies, classical music, and great works of arts. But of course I would pay more attention to the books themselves" Raven explained

"Hey that's cool! Maybe we should got there together sometime" Beast Boy exclaimed, Raven smiled

"Maybe we should" She said quietly giving out a soft silent happy sigh

Before long, they finally made it to the park. They exited the car and made their way to their favorite place, a nice small hill with an oak tree on the top, giving off the perfect shade from the hot sun. Once they made it to their spot, they sat down and look down at the more crowded areas of the park. They sat there in comfortable silence, enjoying the other's company. A half hour passed before Beast Boy thought it was about time to ask her.

"Hey Rae?" Beast Boy broke the silence

"Yes Beast Boy?" Raven asked back

"You know these past couple of years have been awesome for me, you wanna know why?"

"Why?"

"Because I got the best friend I've always been looking for" Beast Boy answered with a kind smile. Raven smiled back

"You know you just took the same words right out of my mouth" Raven replied before looking back at the park. Beast Boy took in a deep breath looked back at Raven

"Hey Rae, there's something else I wanna tell you"

"What is it?"

"Raven would you like to be my g-"

*BEEP BEEP BEEP*

Beast Boy groaned as he felt his communicator go off. He flipped it open and to his displeasure he saw Robin's face on the small screen.

"What is it Robin?" Beast Boy asked, clearly aggravated

"Beast Boy, cinderblock is causing havoc downtown. We need you and Raven down here immediately!" Robin ordered. Beast Boy sighed before nodding his head obediently.

"What did you want to ask me Beast Boy?" Raven asked

"Nothing, I'll ask you later" Beast Boy said as they made their way back to his rental

…………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

The battle with Cinderblock was nothing as their usual encounters with the overgrown size villain. This time, Cinderblock wanted to seriously hurt the Titans, more specifically Raven, knowing very well that she was the most powerful of all the Titans. At one point he was threatening to crush her in his mighty hands, and he would've succeeded if it were not for Beast Boy who turned into a Tyrannosaurus Rex and knocked Cinderblock through an office building. This gave the Titans the advantage to get Cinderblock under their thumbs, as they captured him and turned him into the authorities. Beast Boy went to check on Raven who seemed to be in some serious pain. He helped her up by carrying her bridal style to the T-car, but Raven was not too happy at his gesture.

"Beast Boy, put me down. I'm fully capable of walking on my own" Raven commanded sternly

"Raven, you're hurt. Let me just help you to the T-Car" Beast Boy tried to reason

"Beast Boy! I said I'm fine!" Raven jumped out of his arms, glaring at him angrily

"Raven, I'm just trying to help-"

"I never said I needed, or wanted your help!" Raven snapped. Beast Boy was taken aback by her sudden outburst

"Ok…um..sorry. Didn't mean to upset you" Beast Boy chuckled nervously. Raven sighed before shaking her head

"No I'm sorry, I'm overreacting" Raven explained as they made their way back to the T-Car. The ride back was silent, but this time, it was an uncomfortable silence. They finally made it back to the Tower, and all the Titans headed to their own rooms for a good night's sleep. Raven and Beast Boy walked together to their rooms naturally, since they shared the same hallway with each other. Raven's room was first though. They made to her room and looked at each other and wished the other a good night as Raven opened her door to enter her room. Beast Boy turned around as he made his way to his own room before Raven stopped him.

"Beast Boy, you never told me what you had to say" Raven said barely above a whisper, but Beast Boy heard it loud and clear.

"Oh that well…Raven you know that we're best friends right?" Beast Boy asked nervously. Raven nodded her head in return

"Well…Raven I was wondering, maybe we could be more than friends?" Beast Boy asked bravely, but under his jumpsuit, he was sweating up a storm

"Wh-what do you mean?" Raven asked, completely caught off guard

"Raven…I think, I'm in…love with you" Beast Boy finally admitted. Raven's eyes grew wide in terror

"No, Beast Boy, you're not in love with me. You only think you are" Raven responded

"What? What are you talking about?! Of course I'm in love with you! I have been since we were young!" Beast Boy shouted

"Beast Boy! Please stop! It just…wouldn't work out" Raven stated as calmly as she could, but her stutter was betraying her.

"Why not?"

"Because…I'm not made for love Beast Boy" Raven said quietly and sadly

"What!? Of course you are!"

"Beast Boy, I can't feel!"

"Then what do you call all those smiles and laughs we shared these past few years?" Beast Boy asked, determined not to let Raven win this argument

"I don't know what that was…."

"Raven! Don't you see? It was all part of my plan! I got you to feel! Because I knew you could" Beast Boy held Raven's hands in his own softly as he smiled genuinely at her. Raven looked up at him with anger in her eyes. She roughly pulled her hands away from him

"Y-you had a p-plan!?" Raven shouted angrily

'IDIOT!!!!' Beast Boy yelled at himself mentally

"No…no wait!! It wasn't like that Raven!" Beast Boy tried to defend himself

"So this entire time, you just wanted to get close to me, so you could ask me out!?" Raven was furious at this point

"No Raven! I wanted to get close to you because I wanted to! Asking you out was just….something I thought I could later down the road" Beast Boy voice trailed off

"Well I guess you 'well thought out plan just failed'! Because I'm not going out with you!" Raven screamed

"W-why not?" Beast Boy asked sadly

"Because….." Raven turned away and began to sob quietly. Beast Boy reached down and wiped away some of her tears away.

"Raven, believe me when I say this, I am honestly deeply in love with you" Beast Boy said sincerely

"Please just give me a chance?" Beast Boy asked hopefully as he brought her hands up to his face. Raven searched his eyes, for any sign of falsehood, but she only saw longing and love…for her.

"I'm sorry Beast Boy…I can't" Raven said quietly. Hearing those words broke Beast Boy's heart in a million pieces

"W-why not?" Beast Boy asked, getting choked up

"Because….I…don't love you back. And I will never be able to" Raven answered remorsefully. Beast Boy let go of her hands. He saw her eyes well up with tears before she ran into her room and locked her door. He stood there, for a good minute he just stood there, replaying her words over and over again in his head. He slowly made his way back to his own room, but upon entering he saw a photo he took with Raven. He picked up the frame and saw the two of them at the beach, looking like a happily married couple. Beast Boy was grinning from ear to ear as he had his arm wrapped around Raven's waist and she had her arm around his, giving the camera a smile of her own. Looking at this picture brought back so many memories for the young changeling. It brought back all his original hopes and dreams of spending his life with Raven, but the tragic truth was, it could never come true. His eyes welled up before tears of his own rolled down his cheek. He dropped the photo and fell to the ground hard. He sobbed like there was no tomorrow, and for the first time in a long time, he cried himself to sleep.

For the next few days, neither Raven nor Beast Boy left their rooms. They stayed locked inside their little worlds. This greatly worried the other Titans. After the third day, Robin took matters into his own hands as he forced his way into the two young members' rooms. To his surprise, Raven was nowhere to be found in her room. He decided to investigate a bit before noticing a note on her bed. He picked it up but saw that on the front It said "To Beast Boy." Robin was about to open the note, but decided against it, knowing he would be invading both Raven and Beast Boy's privacy. That brought him to his next teammate. He walked down the hallway over to Beast Boy's room. He knocked quietly

"W-who's t-there?" Beast Boy asked between his lung spasms

"It's me Beast Boy. Can I come in? I'm worried about you" Robin said earnestly

"S-sure" Robin sighed in relief as he opened the door and made his way in. What Robin saw deeply hurt him. Beast Boy was on the floor, hugging his knees, with pictures of Raven and himself scattered all over the place. Robin made his way to his fallen teammate and helped him sit up.

"Beast Boy…what happened?" Robin asked concern running through him, like an older brother would worry for his little brother

"R-r-raven" Beast Boy choked out

"What about her?"

"Sh-she doesn't l-love me" Beast Boy sobbed harder after finishing his sentence. Robin immediately felt sorry for his poor love-sick friend

"Let me guess, you love her, don't you?" Robin asked sorrowfully. Beast Boy nodded his head. Robin sighed heavily. He could only imagine Beast Boy's pain. Robin himself was fortunate enough to have a great relationship with Starfire. But his friend Beast Boy, was going through a unrequited love. He put his arm gently around Beast Boy's shoulders.

"I'm…very sorry to hear that Beast Boy" Robin said sadly, feeling tears of his own threatening to escape. But he took in a deep breath, he had to be strong right now, for Beast Boy.

"I l-l-love her Robin…I can't live w-without h-her" Beast Boy continued to cry

"How do you know for sure she doesn't love you back?" Robin asked carefully, not wanting to strike a nerve

"Sh-she told m-m-m-me" Beast Boy could barely speak, so he took in a very deep breath and exhaled just as deeply, calming himself down tremendously

"She told me, after we beat Cinderblock a couple days ago. I asked her if she would want to be with me, and then I told her I loved her. But she said she couldn't be with me, because she can't ever love me" Beast Boy said feeling even more depressed

"You know something Beast Boy? I think she was lying" Robin said quietly

"W-what do you mean?" Beast Boy looked up at his leader

"When she told you she doesn't love you" Robin clarified

"I mean, have you noticed how much she's changed these past few years? Well, mainly around you anyways. She'd still act like her same ol' Raven-like self around us, but around you, she was…different" Robin tried to enlighten his heart broken friend

"That's what I told her…"

"Maybe, she was just afraid. Remember what happened with Mal…um…Mal…?" Robin struggled to pronounce the Dragon's name

"Malchior" Beast Boy finished his sentence spitefully

"Yeah him! Maybe she was just afraid of falling in love again. Maybe she was afraid of getting hurt…" Robin said quietly

"How do you know for sure?" Beast Boy asked

"Well to be honest I don't" Beast Boy looked down sadly again

"But I have a feeling this note will explain things better than me" Robin said with a smile as he handed Beast Boy the note and got up to leave.

"Robin?"

"Yeah Beast Boy?"

"Thanks" Beast Boy said with a sad smile. Robin smiled, nodded, and left the room.

"Please be good news. Those two really need each other" Robin silently prayed as he walked down the hallway. Beast Boy looked down at the note. Holding tightly onto it, as if it would disintegrate into thin air. He hesitantly opened it and began to read the note.

Dear Garfield

Words cannot describe how sorry I am for what I did to you. It's ironic, I lied to you to prevent myself from hurting you, but by doing so I only caused you much more pain. As I just stated above, Beast Boy, I've lied. I am in love with you. I am madly in love with you. But as I said before, I am not meant to love or to be loved. But I guess you just had to be the idiot who fell in love me, and I was an idiot for falling for you…but to be honest, I'm glad it was you I fell in love with. You are by far the sweetest, nicest, most loving, and dare I say it? The most handsome boy, no, man I have ever had the pleasure to meet. But because of all that, I can't be with you Beast Boy. I am the epitome of evil, and you are the light that was part of my life. And I feel so stupid, I hate myself so much for doing this, I'm even crying my eyes writing this stupid note, but you deserve much better than me Garfield. I really wish things could be different, but unfortunately, life doesn't seem to like being fair to us. I do think it is fair to let you know where I have decided to run off to, I will be in Gotham City for the rest of my days. At least now I don't have to worry about facing off villains, that's what Batman's for am I right? And besides, I know Robin's huge ego won't let him come back here to get me. But please Beast Boy, don't come looking form, I can guarantee you, it will be a lost cause. Just do me a favor a find someone who truly deserves you. Don't worry, I will never even dream of finding another love, you are the only one who has successfully been able to break down my emotional walls, and let me feel. And for that, I am truly grateful Beast Boy. I will cherish all those loving moments you have given me, and I will always have you in my heart, and in my dreams.

Love with all my heart

Raven

Beast Boy read and reread the note several times. She loved him. She loved him back! He didn't know whether to jump out his window out of happiness or misery at the fact that Raven loved him back. But then he read the note one more time, more specifically the part where Raven stated she was migrated to Gotham City.

'Gotham City? Where did I hear Raven talk about that earlier?' Beast Boy thought to himself. Then finally his mind clicked.

"The Gotham City Library!!!" Beast Boy yelled out loudly. He quickly ran out of his room and over to the common room and logged himself onto one of the computers. He checked any train or plane tickets heading over to Gotham City, luckily for him, a train was leaving for Gotham City in a hour, but unfortunately for him, tickets were sold out. But that wasn't going to stop the changeling from seeing his true love. He ran back out and ran as fast as he could out the Titans Tower. He didn't care that it was pouring, he didn't care that the cold November Rain would certainly give him a cold. He was a man on mission. He was a man…in love.

Cyborg was sitting in the security room, looking for any signs of where Raven disappeared off to. But he was shocked when he saw that Beast Boy was running as a cheetah down the streets of Jump City to the nearest train station. Cyborg ran out of the room and went to tell Robin.

"Robin! BB's gone mad!! He's running into Jump City!" Cyborg shouted as he showed Robin the tape. Robin rubbed his chin in thought while Cyborg went to get Starfire. Robin checked the tapes in Beast Boy room and saw him read the note Raven gave him. Robin smiled to himself as he put two and two together, he was after all, Batman's protégé.

"Go knock some sense into her Beast Boy" Robin encouraged with a smile on his face. Cyborg returned with Starfire right behind him.

"Alright Robin! I got the T-Car and Starfire ready! Let's go get Beast Boy-"

"No need Cyborg" Robin said with his smile never leaving his face

"What is going on boyfriend Robin?" Starfire asked curiously

"Oh nothing, just that Beast Boy is gonna finally get the girl" Robin chuckled warmly

"Girl!? What girl!?" Cyborg shouted

"Raven" Robin answered with a smug smile. Cyborg's jaw dropped to the floor as Starfire and Robin began to hug and twirl around happily, in a pre-mature celebration for Beast Boy.

Beast Boy finally made it to the train station. He shoved through the entire crowd of people before making it to one of the assistants.

"Hey there! Um…excuse me but where can I find Gate U2 departing for Gotham City?" Beast Boy asked frantically

"Gate U2 is straight down, but that train is leaving in 5 minutes, you'll never make it in time getting through security…" The assistant informed Beast Boy. He turned around and began to load up some more bags onto a cart before turning back to Beast Boy.

"But I'll tell you what, you can get a ticket for tomorrow's…" when the assistant turned around, Beast Boy was long gone. He scratched his head in confusion before shrugging and getting back to work. Beast Boy ran as fast as he could again, but when he got to the security gate he merely turned into a fly and buzzed right past the guards. He kept flying as fast as he could until he made it into the train itself. He found himself a nice seat and anxiously awaited for the train to arrive at Gotham City.

………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………….

Meanwhile, Raven walked through the dark streets of Gotham City, crying her eyes out. She was currently in an overwhelming state of self-loathing.

'How could you be so stupid!?' She scorned herself

'Why couldn't you just admit you loved him too?! Then we would be in his strong loving arms, instead of this dump!' Raven's knowledge lectured in her mind. Raven mentally shook her mind of her thoughts and pulled up her hood as the November Rain began to fall hard again. She quickly ran trying to find a safe place to find sanctuary in. She made it to this nice looking building, she walked inside and saw an enormous display of bookshelves, movie screening studios, and music stands. The Lobby itself was luxurious, looking like a five star hotel.

'Well, at least I made it to the Gotham City Library' Raven thought to herself as she looked through the shelves for a good book to read.

…………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

Beast Boy was growing extremely impatient. He couldn't wait any longer. He had to make it to Gotham City…NOW!

"Attention passengers, we are only 30 minutes away from Gotham City, but we have to take a brief resting stop to refill the engine. We are sorry for any inconvenience, and we hope you enjoy the rest of your trip" The conductor announced over the speaker

"That's forty five minutes!" Beast Boy whined. He looked down the hallway and saw one of the train workers stamping everyone's tickets. Suddenly Beast Boy remembered that he boarded the train illegally. So he quietly opened the window and flew out into the rainy night as a Raven. He was making great time as he already made it to the city in a matter of minutes. He flew up higher and morphed into an eagle, scanning the entire city for Raven. He found nothing and was ready to land and give up when he spotted the library. He swooped down as fast as he could before morphing back into his human self and burst through the doors.

"RAVEN!? WHERE ARE YOU!?" Beast Boy shouted inside the lobby at the top his lungs. Everyone stopped what they were doing and looked at Beast Boy as if he was crazy, but what they didn't know was that he was crazy. Crazy for a certain empathic sorceress.

Raven heard her name being called out and looked in the direction of the voice. She looked behind herself and saw none other than the love of her life screaming her name out like a madman, and being dragged out by some workers. She dropped the book she was reading and flew over to Beast Boy.

"Beast Boy!!!" Raven shouted loudly hovering through the crowd of people. Beast Boy's eyes snapped up to see his dark goddess fly towards him. He changed himself into a gorilla to scare off the workers before changing back to hug Raven as she flew into his arms. Raven sobbed hard against Beast Boy's chest, and Beast Boy cried on her shoulder. Neither of the two wanted to let go.

"Beast Boy, I was so s-stupid! I can't b-believe I lied to you! P-please f-forgive me! I am s-so sorry!" Raven cried loudly. Beast Boy hushed her softly as he stroked her violet hair softly.

"You're already forgiven love" Beast Boy smiled down at her. Raven looked up into his green eyes, and to her delight, she still saw the earnest love in them just like before.

"Beast Boy, you have always been there for me. No matter how terribly I've treated you, no matter how badly I've hurt you, you've always stuck by me, and I just now finally realized, you're a man worth loving" Raven said amorously, tears threatening to escape from her eyes again. Beast Boy smiled down at her lovingly.

"Rave-"

"Let me finish. You have always been there for me, and now…I want to return the favor. I want to be there for you. Because Beast Boy…I lied…I DO love you! W-with all my heart" Raven whimpered. Beast Boy bit his bottom lip and closed his eyes as hard as he could as he felt his own tears of joy slip down his face.

"I love you too Raven. God! I love you SO much!" Beast Boy exclaimed joyfully receiving a smile from Raven

"Beast Boy?" Raven asked quietly

"Yes Raven?"

"Ask me again" Raven smiled but blushed underneath her hood. Beast Boy grinned childishly as he pulled back Raven's hood

"Raven? Would you like to be my girlfriend?" Beast Boy asked hopefully. Raven beamed

"You green idiot! Of course I do!" Raven answered cheerfully as she smashed her lips against Beast Boy's. Beast Boy wrapped his arms around her slim waist as her arms snaked their way around Beast Boy's neck. The large crowd that surrounded them couldn't help but 'awww' at the love being exchanged between Raven and Beast Boy. Raven didn't even notice that her powers were completely under control, she barely noticed that her leotard was no longer black and blue, but was now pure white. When the need for air separated the two lovers, Beast Boy beamed down at his new girlfriend as she smiled back.

"Come on Raven, let's go home" Beast Boy said as he gave Raven another kiss on the lips which she returned joyfully. They walked out of the library hand in hand and Into the Night, as the crowd applauded the two. And little did Raven and Beast Boy know, that kiss was the start of a new life…together…forever. Not even death, parting the two lovers, that were Destined for Each Other.
