She could feel the warmth of a hand on her forehead. As consciousness
continued to pour into her more fully she started to smell his cologne.
"Beast Boy?" She muttered with a voice that sounded terrible, hardly her own.
"Ohmygosh Rae! You freaked the crap outta me! I'm so sorry, I can't bel--"
Her hand shooting up to his mouth cut him short as he rambled off threatening never to slow down.
Sitting up she looked into his eyes, she had felt an attraction towards the green boy for quite a while, and had shoved it away. How could she ever feel love, when something as little as getting mad at someone on the TV caused it to blow to bits. How could she live with herself if that had ever happened to anyone?
"Let me help" he pleaded with her, holding her hands in his.
Raven closed her eyes, could she do this? Could she allow another to feel the pain that had built up inside her mirror for so long, to feel the emotions that had been pushed back inside of her when it had broke?
"I can't" was all that she could mutter, "I can't allow you to hurt for me"
He dipped in close, allowing his nose to touch hers slightly. Brushing her cheek with his hand he whispered, "Let go"
And then he kissed her.
Pain entered into his body, she could feel it leaving her and her telekinetic connection with Beast Boy allowed her to feel it enter into him. But he kept on kissing her.
She was amazed at how well he stood up, how well he took in her memories, her feelings.
There were years of torment by so-called friends, bullies, and even teachers who didn't understand her. There were angry parents who through objects at her mothers car when they found out what Raven really was. There was moving, leaving, going to Azarath again and again to escape torment. And there were the years of abuse from her father.
But there was something else. Love. The love that Raven's mother had given her unconditionally. She hadn't destroyed Raven, left her behind, or tormented her. All her mother had ever given her was love.
Beast Boy pulled away. She kept her eyes closed not wanted to see the look of terror on his face, she didn't want to watch as he left her as he walked away unable to handle being with a girl who was so messed up.
Nothing. She still didn't open her eyes in fear of what she may see when exposed to the world again.
Ever so lightly she felt him as he kissed her nose, signaling her to open her eyes. As she did, slowly, she saw one of his infamous smiles plastered across his face.
"Dude, Rae that was incredible!"
Unable to suppress it, a laugh it escaped her. They both hunched waiting for the crash of the light bulb above them. When it didn't happen Beast Boy grabbed her by the hand pulling her up and mumbling excitedly about a proper first date. Raven didn't even hear him, she was too happy.
"Thanks Mom" she whispered to herself as she was lead away by the man she loved.
