Sleeping next to him was something to get used too.

And judging from the stirring next to Raven, Beast Boy was having his own troubles.

She muttered slightly, "Beast Boy?"

He shifted and rolled over so his torso was on top of her and with a small glow of light coming from the city outside their window he had a very clear view of her dark eyes.

"Can you sleep?" She asked, feeling stupid since she already knew the answer.

He looked uncomfortable for a moment and lifted his hands up, "I want to show you something" he said.

Crackling between his palms and fingers was a black aura similar to the powerful black aura Raven often had surrounding her when her powers were active.

She smiled, something foreign to her for so long, "its okay BB, I just lost control."

His puzzled look forced her to go on, "with you... when we..." she blushed slightly, unsure why this was so hard for her. He was her husband after all.

He kissed her nose slightly, "It's okay, I understand" for a boy who was constantly a goofball; she was pleased that he, for once, used the intelligence that she knew he had.

"It'll go away", she promised.

Almost a year ago Starfire had moved out of her room next door to Raven when she and Robin had gotten married. A marriage that was too long in the coming. Even Cyborg had found love, a small dark hair, dark eyed beauty that fell in love with him as a pen pal and surprised everyone when she continued loving him even after finding out he was part machine. Most (actually all) girls left after discovering who Cyborg really was. But Nicole fell in love with the man, and never saw or feared the mechanical part of him.

After Starfire had abandoned her room, Robin had knocked out the wall between the rooms to give Raven a bit more personal space. It suited Raven well to have a room double it's original size, and worked out even more so now that her and Beast Boy were living in the same room.

Raven wouldn't admit it to anyone but Beast Boy, and at the time she couldn't risk letting her emotions out, but when Starfire had abandoned her room, Raven had felt abandoned herself. All of her friends had someone; even Beast Boy was, as he put it at the time 'playing the field.'

Now, she was too happy for words, and thanks to Beast Boy she was able to let more of her emotions out. Not all, since it would still be disastrous, but more than she had even been able to before. It was good to feel human again. It was good to feel loved.
