Jamina's Answer
I got up, then sat back down. I was gonna hear it sooner or later anyway. Why wait? "You don't like me like that and you think I'm a loser..." I mumbled sadly, looking down at my feet. Jamina tilted her head a little. "That's not what I was gonna say." she answered.
My heart lifted a little, "It wasn't?" She shook her head. "Then what were you going to say?" I asked, rumming my fingers on my lap. "Well, I didn't want to disappoint you or anything, but I think it's really funny." I stopped moving. I was too confused to move. "Funny?" Did she think it was some kind of joke? That's not what I wanted...
She nodded, smiling, "Well, you were going through so much trouble to keep it quiet, and Starfire yells it out. You should have seen your face." I sighed. "Well, you know now." Jamina looked at the floor, "Mmmm..." I raised an eyebrow, "What?" I asked curiously. "That's the other part of me not wanting to disappoint you."
I jumped up. "You KNEW?!" "Well..." I felt like I had fire in me, "WHO TOLD?!" Jamina bit her bottom lip, "I'm not gonna say..." I clenched my fists, "Who told?" "I'm not going to tell!" "Why?" "Because I don't like ratting people out; I don't rat you out." That was true, but THIS was different. "Jamina, I won't stop asking you..." "Beast Boy..." "Who told?" "Nope." "Who told?" "Nope."
I couldn't take this. I threw myself at her feet and begged. Sad. I know. I was doing it. "Pleeeeeeeaaaaaasssseeeee???" Jamina took in a deep breath and let it out, "Why does it matter?" "I want to know who I can't tell things to anymore." "I doubt you won't tell her things anymore." She quickly put both hands over her mouth in shock. I smiled, "Thank you, Jamina. You're a big help!" I marched back and forth, "It's either Star or Raven...Well, in Star's diary..."
"What?!" I froze in place. I was dead if she told. "You read Starfire's diary?" she whispered, looking around making sure Starfire wasn't in earshot. "....no. I skimmed it. There's a difference." I noted. "Ooooo, Starfire's gonna be so upset when she finds out..." I put on my guiltiest puppy eyes, "You're gonna tell her?" Jamina thought about it.
"If you promise you won't blow up at the person, when I tell you who told." That was going to be hard but this deal was against me. What is with this today? Me making wrong deals...Uhh, I need to stop doing that. "Fine, but can I blow up here?" Jamina folded her arms, "You're missing the point." "No, I caught the point right here in my brain."
"OK. Don't attack me or anything..." I couldn't do that if I tried. "Uhuh." I smiled. "Raven told me." Doomsday was written all over my face and Jamina read it. "Remember what you said, Beast Boy!" she reminded, warning me. "Wh-how long...have you known?" I asked.
Jamina stood up and put her hands behind her back, "...a while." "How long is a while?" "...a long time." So a long time? I had been trying so hard to keep this quiet and she already knew? "If you knew...then why didn't you tell me?!" She shrugged.
We stopped talking because it was really quiet. I turned around. Everyone was walking out of the kitchen. Great, Raven was walking out right after Robin, who was first. I started to walk over, but I was pulled back. Is it something that girls have that lets them read our minds or what? Some spooky power, that's all I'm saying.
Raven sat on the couch and opened her book and Cy sat in front of the tv. I flopped next to him. "So,...what did she say?" he whispered. "Stuff." I mumbled back. "Man, that doesn't tell me anything." "I'll tell ya later." "Bad stuff or good?" "Bad." Cy gave me a pity look. I got the message. "It's not like that, dude. It's about something...else." I finished, looking Raven's way.
Five minutes later, Cy got up to go work out. That's basically all he does besides eat, recharge himself, and kick butt. And the occasional video gaming. Plus his new hobby, watch the Raven. I got up to go to my room, when I was yanked into the hallway by Jamina. "Whatever it is, I didn't do it!" I said, putting my hands up. "I'm not blaming you for anything. I just wanna ask you something."
"What?" I was hoping it wasn't one of those stupid questions like 'why do you like me' or 'are you sure you like me'. "Does Cyborg like Raven?" I stared at her blankly. "...uh...why?" "Just answer me." I looked around, "Yeah, he does, but don't tell him I told you." Jamina smiled, "And you were mad at Raven for telling." "Well, she told YOU. I didn't tell Raven about Cyborg. See, that's not the same thing!"
"Calm down." I stopped, "Why did you want to know?" She looked at me slowly, "Well...every time I see him he's always trying to talk to her or something like that. I could tell he liked her, but I needed to make sure." I thought about something. "Jamina, does Raven like Cy?" She shrugged, "I'm not sure. It's hard to tell with Raven. And I've never asked her before."
I guess Jamina was figuring something out because she stayed really quiet. "Will you help me?" she asked, suddenly. "Su-wait. With what?" I asked. I was always willing to help anybody, but I needed to know what I was gonna do. "Well, I want to try to get Raven and Cyborg together." "You gotta be joking. No way am I helping out Raven! And don't ask why, because you know!"
"Well, then do it for Cyborg..." I shook my head, "Na-uh." "You wouldn't do it for your best friend?" Nope. "There's a lot of things I haven't done for Cyborg and never will. Now that you know my answer, I'll be on my way..." I was this close to being home free. That was until she asked, "Would you do it for me?" Awwww, she had to get me somehow.
"Jaaaaaammmiiinnaa!" I wined. "Pwease?" NO! She was guilt sucking me! That was so not cool! But, she was pouting at me. And I COULDN'T SAY NO! I bit my tongue. "Mmmm..." That's the closest I can ever get to saying no to her. I was beaten, "...fine..." I sighed. "Thank you!" she jumped and hugged me. I forgot what I was upset about and smiled brightly. Go me, go me, go me!
"Now all we need is a small plan for big happenings." She said. "Huh?" I wasn't paying attention. "Who else is helping you?" I ask her. "Nobody but you and me." She answered. "Are you gonna ask anyone else?" "Nope. If I do, then it might be too many of us and they'll catch on quick, you know what I mean?" I nodded. I was the chosen one.....YEAH!
Author's note: Sorry for the wait, people! [dodges from thrown food] Don't hurt me! I'm working on two stories and I'm thinking about writing a third one, but not until I finish at least one of these. OK? Happy now? Oh yeah, and review on this one! (lol) Nacho Cheese!
