A/N: Ugh... I have never had any idea of how hard it is to keep Raven and Beast Boy in character while progressing a romance plot. I'm not too sure I did....
Disclaimer: I do not own Teen Titans. The plot is mine, though.
Summary: Beast boy is bored. He decides to read a book, which turns out to be Raven's Diary... BBRae
Bored
Chapter 9
As Beast boy walked towards the living room, where he had last seen Raven, he attempted to formulate a plan, which wasn't really his strong suit.
He would flirt with Raven a bit, make her blush, tell her he read her diary and that he felt the same, and ask her out. She's be so happy that he had asked her out that she wouldn't mind that he read her diary. It was perfect!
As Beast boy reached the living room, he noticed that no one was around anymore except for Raven, who was still reading her book. So he immediately launched into his plan.
It turned out to be one of his worse ideas.
Beast boy plopped down onto the sofa across from Raven and said, "Hey babe."
Raven looked up from her book, glared at Beast boy with ice in her eyes, and said, "Did you just call me babe?"
"Uh...no!" Beast boy said nervously, sweatdropping. He hastily changed the subject. "What're you reading?"
Raven looked up again, astonished at the fact Beast boy was willingly attempting to carry on a conversation with her. "Okay," she said. "What do you want?"
"Nothing!" Beast boy said quickly. "I just want to know what you're reading!"
Raven raised an eyebrow. "Carrie. By Stephen King," she said suspiciously, taken aback at Beast boy's interest.
"Cool. What's it about?" Beast boy said, relaxing. She didn't seem too upset now.
"A girl who a bunch of preps poured pig's blood on at her prom and she went insane and killed them all using her psychic powers."
Beast boy sweatdropped. "Okay..."
Raven put her book down beside her, and sat up slightly. "All right," Raven said exasperatedly. "What's going on?"
Beast boy was taken aback. "What do you mean?"
"You come in here for no apparent reason, call me babe, and start asking about my reading selections. Try to convince me that's normal behavior for you," Raven rattled off.
"Um... it's normal behavior for me?" Beast boy attempted half-heartedly.
"Fine," Raven said disgustedly. "If you won't tell me what's going on, I'll have to find out on my own."
Beast boy's thoughts flew to what he had read in her diary, seeing if there was any mention that she was able to read minds.
"What book did you read?"
"Sorry?" Beast boy said, having missed what she said.
"What...book...did...you...read?" Raven said very slowly, as if speaking to an idiot.
"Book?" Beast boy asked, startled. He didn't recall a book mentioned in her diary.
Raven sighed. "Yes, Brainless Boy. You went into my room to go get a book to read. What book did you get?"
"Oh yeah!" Beast boy exclaimed, remembering how he had gotten Raven's diary in the first place.
"So, what did you read?" Raven asked again patiently.
"Ummm..." Beast boy said, rapidly searching through his memory for one of the titles he had seen on Raven's shelves. "Fahrenheit 451."
"Really?" Raven asked, surprised. "What'd you think of it?"
"Think of what?" Beast boy asked.
"Fahrenheit 451, the book you read..." Raven said, suspiciously eyeing Beast boy. "You didn't read a book at all, did you?"
"Yes! I mean no!" Beast boy said quickly, backing up against the armrest of the couch.
"What's that behind your ear?" Raven asked, distracted as a glint of metal caught her eye.
"Huh?" Beast boy asked, confused again.
Raven rolled her eyes, and motioned towards his ear, zooming the object towards her and landing it in her hand. "It looks like a sort of paperclip. Except it's all bent," Raven said, examining it.
Beast boy gulped, remembering he had tucked his makeshift lock pick behind his ear. "Please don't let her figure it out!" Beast boy thought desperately.
"Is this a lock pick?" Raven asked, twirling it around her fingers.
"Um...no?" Beast boy answered nervously, watching Raven's every move with fear.
"What lock did you pick, Beast boy?" Raven said, casting her eyes all over Beast boy, making him feel decidedly squeamish. Her eyes settled around his groin. Beast boy gulped.
"What's that purple thing in your pocket?"
Beast boy sighed, relieved that she hadn't been looking at what he thought she was looking at, until he remembered exactly what was in his pocket.
"It looks like a book," Raven said, her eyes narrowing. "I thought you didn't read a book."
Beast boy leaned away from Raven, falling over the side of the sofa onto the floor. He inched away, fearful of Raven's wrath.
"I only have one purple book, Beast boy. Did you know that?" Raven said, her eyes mere slits. "Do you happen to know what that book might be?"
Beast boy was seized with absolute terror, knowing from his readings earlier just what Raven could do when she was mad. He got up and dashed for the hallway door.
"Azarath Metrion Zinthos!"
The diary was torn from Beast boy's pocket as he reached the door. He slammed it, and ran up to his room.
"At least she didn't get me," Beast boy thought, panting, as he bolted the door and hid under his sheets, terrified of what was to come.
.o0o.o0o.o0o.
Urgh.... Have mercy on me in the next few chapters. I've rewritten them like 50 times. Don't hate me too much.
