Disclaimer: I do not own teen titans.
Then, Beast Boy said something that Raven would never forget.
" Do you love me?"
Raven was overwhelmed. That with a simple touch of a finger, that she would fall down and shatter into a million pieces. She wouldn't know the answer without some serious thinking. I have to tell Beast Boy that I don't know the answer. I can't possibly know now. As far as I know, I can't answer that… yet.
" I don't know the answer to that, Beast Boy." A single tear glided smoothly down her cheek, but thanks to the hood, it was not visible to the naked eye. She then flew quickly through the doors to the tower. A crying Raven went up to her room, while breaking numerous things on her way. It began to rain outside, Beast Boy still outside. He was so sad, making Raven feel that way. He wouldn't go in. Not now. He felt like his heart was broken, Raven not loving him. Maybe he was wrong about her. Maybe he was. Tears made their way down his face, creating wet paths, joining with rainwater.
I'll never let you seeThe way my broken heart is hurting me.
I've got my pride, and I know how to hide
All the sorrow and pain
I'll do my crying in the rain.
He was sobbing now, soaking wet from the rain that was pouring from the heavens. Raven felt horrible as she watched him with pain in her eyes. She couldn't take it anymore and turned sharply away from the window, wiping the tears from her face.
If I wait for cloudy skiesYou won't know the rain from the tears in my eyes
You'll never know that I still love you
So though the heartaches remain
I'll do my crying in the rain.
Raven went outside to beckon Beast Boy to come in. She stepped outside, and made her way through the raindrops to find and retrieve Beast Boy. He was not very far, but still crying, and a huge puddle gathered under him.
"Beast Boy, come in, or you'll get sick," Raven coaxed.
" No. You hate me anyway. Leave me alone."
" I don't hate you. I just… I don't know."
" You don't know, huh? Well, I don't know if I even like you anymore. Go away!"
"I will," she said softly.
She went in, leaving a shivering Beast Boy.
Raindrops falling from heavenWill never wash away my misery
But since we're not together
I'll wait for stormy weather
To hide these tears I'll hope you never see.
An hour later, Beast Boy came in, or crawled in. He collapsed on the couch. Cyborg, the only one that was awake at that hour, rushed and awakened every titan. Raven was the most concerned, but she dared not show it. She quickly got a multiple of blankets, and gently laid them on top of him. This is all my fault, Raven thought. If I didn't leave him in the rain, this wouldn't be happening. Raven bit her lip. (A/N: Does Raven bite her lip?) The other titans were going to try to wake him, if he didn't wake himself. Beast Boy shook his head vigorously, and water splashed everywhere.
"AUGH!" all the titans screamed.
" Sorry." Beast Boy shivered, and then grinned.
"Beast Boy, are you okay?" Raven exclaimed.
" Um… Yeah, I guess… I'm just a little cold. Why are you so worried?"
" No reason… I'll be up in my room…"
Raven, embarrassed, flew quickly up the stairs to her room. Then, she began to ponder about why she said that. She didn't even know if she loved him. Beast Boy even said that he didn't know if he even liked her anymore.
Someday when my crying's doneI'm gonna wear a smile and walk in the sun
I may be a fool
But till then, darling, you'll never see me complain.
I'll do my crying in the rain
I'll do my crying in the rain
I'll do my crying in the rain
I'll do my crying in the rain.
Beast Boy fell asleep, soon. He was tired, cold, and very sleepy. In his dream, Raven told him that she never wanted to see his face again, and moved from the teen titans, and the tower.
"NOOOOOO! RAVEN! DON'T GO! AAAAHHHH!" Beast Boy sat up straight, and yelled for quite a while. Which woke up everyone. At 6:00 in the morning. Which disturbed everyone. Everyone woke up and stayed up. Beast Boy went to Raven's room and knocked. An eye poked out.
"What?" she said it fiercely, but a hint of compassion.
" Don't leave! I'm sorry for everything! Please stay!" Beast Boy cried out, begging on his knees.
" First of all, get up." Beast Boy got up.
"Second of all, where did you get the idea that I'm going to leave?"
"Nowhere. Never mind."
The sun rose, and the town, as well as the tower, was engulfed in an enormous amount of light. Frost that circled and criss-crossed the windows was liquefied into water and nothing more. Snow melted in thin layers, leaving snow-covered hilltops and meadows bare. Spring was coming, and so was breakfast.
"It is now time for the traditional time in the morning where we all gather to eat comestibles!" Starfire called out.
"COMING!" they all shouted. Except for Raven. She simply glided down the stairs.
Sadly, it was Star's turn to cook. The titans all frowned as they eyed the cerulean pudding-like substance. Raven was enjoying her usual calming herbal tea, while reading one of her books about spells. Beast Boy was the only one who dared to try the, to put it nicely, pudding. His arm extended to reach for the food. The fork had a glomp of pudding, and was on its way to his mouth. His lips enclosed on the substance, and surprisingly it was delicious!
"Yum!" Beast Boy exclaimed. " This tastes like… I don't know what…it's just good!"
The other titans tasted it, and they all agreed that it was good. But then, Star told them the ingredients.
They suddenly spit everything out, wiping their mouths with the napkins, disgusted. Everyone except Beast Boy, that is. The others looked at him, horrified.
"If it tastes good, why barf it up?" Beast Boy asked.
" 'Cause it's sick, little man!" Cyborg said.
"I'll just have some cereal," Robin said.
Raven looked at Beast Boy, then turned back to her book. Her tea was almost gone, and that means meditation time. She drank the last dregs of her tea, put the cup in the sink, and floated up the stairs to her room. Cyborg, who had dish duty, yelled at Raven to come back.
"Yo, Raven! Come back here! The dishwasher's empty and ya still put your cup in the sink!"
Raven came back down, slammed her cup into the dishwasher, then left the room.
" What's with her?" Cyborg asked.
The titans shrugged, and went on gobbling their breakfast. Beast Boy knew what the problem was, though. He felt it was his fault the way Raven was acting. He went upstairs, and knocked on her door. He heard footsteps approaching the door, and thought, Here's my chance! Don't mess this up, Beast Boy. Raven didn't even bother to open the door, she knew who it was.
"Beast boy, I really don't want to speak with you right now." Raven said.
Beast Boy hadn't even opened his little mouth, and she had already walked to her bed and started meditating. He heard her chant her powerful words, and thought, you just messed it up, beast boy. That was the best chance you were going to get. His single opportunity was whisked away as fast as you could say,' Good-bye.'
Raven, on the other hand, wasn't really meditating, and just wanted Beast Boy to go away. She was just saying those words, so that she could be alone. Now she was, and there was a dead silence in her room. She felt horrible about what she did to Beast Boy, and she wanted to change that. She just didn't know how…
