Reading
AN: I own nothing in this story. This is for wolvmbm again so if any other readers have some requests just let me know. Please R&R.
Beast Boy stood outside the store with Rem pulling on his arm.
"C'mon Dad I really want to read!" Rem implored. Beast Boy looked at his 9 year old daughter.
"Can't we go to the arcade instead? I'm sure they have Mario Bros. there." Rem put her hands on her hips and glared at her father.
"Dad, reading is a lot better than videogames and besides mom told you to take me today while she's visiting Uncle Robin and Aunt Starfire."
"Alright, let's go." Beast Boy then went into, in his opinion, the most boring store in existence. Rem instantly went to the horror section and Beast Boy quickly stopped her. "Rem you read way too much horror stories at home. Let's try to find you another genre today, okay?" Rem pouted and looked at Beast Boy with puppy dog eyes. "That's not going to work on me. Now what do they have here?" Looking around, he spotted the children's section.
"Dad we're not going to find anything I want to read in here, trust me."
"You'll never know until we try. Try this for instance." Rem looked at the title of the book.
"The Last Unicorn?"
"I've heard it's really good. Your mom liked it anyway."
"Okay I'll try it out, now can I please go to the horror section?" Beast Boy nodded and Rem scurried off.
"Now what was I supposed to get for Raven?" Taking out his list, he saw three Clive Barker books, the newest Stephen King novel, and the latest biography on Vincent Price. There was one more book on the list that didn't sound like something Raven would be interested in. "Passionate Fires?" Walking up to the customer service desk, the clerk directed him to the romance section. One look at the cover and Beast Boy knew his wife needed help. It had a heavily muscled man kissing a pale woman wearing, in Beast Boy's opinion, nothing. Flipping through the pages, he quickly closed it. "I had no idea you could put that there." He said his brain fried from what he had just read. Quickly finding the other books his wife wanted, he paid for them and Rem's book, then he went to find his daughter.
Despite his urgings, Rem wanted to stay an hour longer so it wasn't until evening that they got home. Rem immediately ran up to her room to read while Beast Boy smirked at his wife.
"So do you want to explain this?" The changeling said to his wife, holding up the romance book. Raven's cheeks turned crimson.
"It's a book."
"I read some pages Rae and this isn't a book. Its crazy sex scenes with maybe two words and then more sex. Now why on Earth would you want to read something like that?"
"For informational purposes." At that answer Beast Boy knew she was lying.
"I get it I can't please you anymore so you have to resort to this."
"No Gar, I read it because…" Then the empath whispered in her husband's ear and now Beast Boy was blushing.
"But I'm not that flexible babe." Raven rolled her eyes and dragged him up to the bedroom.
"Let me show you what I've learned." After tonight, Beast Boy thought that maybe books weren't as bad as he thought.
