Raven sat for a very long time, thinking about Jynx, and she finally snapped out of it when someone knocked on her door, rather loudly.
"Raven?" Beast Boy asked, outside her door. He hoped she was in a good mood, and she wouldn't blow up at him. He just wanted to talk, and all of the other Titans were too busy to bother with him.
"What is it Beast Boy?" She asked, blinking blankly a few times. This was the second time in 24 hours that he had knocked on her door. Usually he avoided her, especially since the time he and Cy got trapped in her mirror.
"I just wanted to...you know...talk to you..." He explained, fidgiting nervously.
Raven got off her bed and without thinking, opened the door. Death tackled BB, and scared the poor little shape shifter.
"What the? That thing is REAL?!" He stammered, looking down at Death, who was hopping around him in circles. Ravens eyes got huge as she snapped out of her stupor, and remembered that Death was a secret. She gasped loudly and picked Death up.
"I ah..." She began, dragging BB into her room because she heard approaching footsteps. He looked at her queerly, and a grin spread across his face.
"You can't tell the others." She began, setting Death down on her bed. BB only looked at her incredulously.
"Like hell I can't! You let that thing run around the Tower, messing with us in our sleep-"
"That was an accident! I swear, it won't happen again. Please don't tell...Robin will make me get rid of him!"
"Wait a minute...Your bookcase didn't fall over yesterday, did it! He knocked it over, and you covered it up. You lied to me! You're supposed to be my friend! Friends don't lie to other friends!" He half-shouted, feeling angry and hurt.
"I'm sorry...I just didn't want-" Raven began again, trying to think of some justification for her actions. In truth, she couldn't think of any.
"How long have you had that thing? How many times have you lied to me?!" He asked, and tears formed in his eyes. Of all the Titans, Raven was the one that he confided in. She always listened to what he had to say, wether it was bitching about another one of them, or telling her about a cool new video game. To have her lie to him...it was devistating.
"Only a day. I swear, I've never lied to you before this...But please...please don't tell." Raven pleaded, but she realized a moment later that she wouldn't get anywhere with him. When BB made up his mind, it stuck that way. "Fine then. Tell them." Raven said, growing angry and frustrated. He didn't say anything more, but she knew that he would tell them.
She grew angry and shoved him out of her room, slamming the door in his face before he could say anything more. She sat on the bed then, close to tears again, taking Death into her arms.
"I haven't ever been good at good-byes, but he'll tell, and then you'll have to leave." Raven sobbed, crying for the second time that day. All around her things broke and shattered, but she didn't care. She had finally found someone to confide in, and Bb would tell, and Death would have to go.
