'I must control my emotions' Raven thought. She hung above the ground, unmoving and silent. She was deep in a trance that could not be broken. Or so she thought.
"Raven?" said a voice she knew all too well. She reluctantly uncurled her legs and went back to standing on the ground. It was Beastboy. Raven took a deep, loud, breath, obviously a warning that Beastboy was not to do that again.
"What do you want?" She said in her normal monotone. Beastboy put his hands behind his back and rocked back and fourth on his heels.
"Uhh... I was just wondering, if... maybe you'd like to go to the fair with me and Cy tonight?" Beastboy smiled widely, looking very desperate indeed. Raven raised one eyebrow sarcastically. Beastboy looked at her, with big adorable eyes. Even though she was cold, Raven couldn't resist those eyes. She grinned and said,
"Alright." Beastboy let out a shrill sound and smiled like Starfire when she had just discovered mustard. Raven smiled and left to go to her room, where she sat at her desk beside the window. The window had the most incredible view, of the edge of the city meeting the lake where Titan's Island sat. It was the inspiration for some of the poems Raven wrote. She took a thin black book off her triangular bookshelf, and accidentally knocked over one of the silver trinkets that sat there. Raven bent down to pick it up, and noticed that it was broken. It was a small marble state of an Indian elephant, now trunk-less from its fall. Raven let out a sad groan. Raven had gotten the elephant from Beastboy when the titans had traveled to India for a vacation. She would repair it later. She placed it back on the shelf and took out her black book. Raven sat at her desk and took out an old-fashioned feather pen and a small bottle of ink from a drawer. She opened the book daintily and turned to a fresh page. She began to write in a curved cursive script.
'Dear Book,
Today Beastboy asked me to go to the fair. I could never tell anyone this, but I love fairs. I was afraid what he would think if I said yes, but those cute little eyes persuaded me... like always. I need to get a shower before I go. We had another villain to defeat today. This one's name was the Chefster. Where do these villains get these stupid names? He put up a horrible fight. I could have knocked him out in one hit, but I let the others be victorious as well. Anyway, about that shower, I am going to let you go. Good-bye, Book.
Signed, Princess of Darkness'
Raven got up from the chair and stretched her arms, then walked out and entered the bathroom. After closing and locking the door carefully, she slid out of her jumpsuit, and threw off her cape. She switched on the water and let it heat up, Raven stepped inside and let the warm, relaxing water slide off her shoulders. She shampooed and conditioned her hair, and rinsed it. She took a black towel that said, "RAVEN" on it in bold letters.
She walked back to her room and got dressed in her normal jumpsuit and cape, but this time she opened her jewelry box. She browsed through it for a few seconds and picked up a thick gold amulet with a maroon jewel on it. Raven sighed. She looked at it for a few seconds, It brought back memories. Her chain of thought was interrupted by a voice.
"Hey Rae," Beastboy said. "Are you coming or not?" He peered through the open door.
"Yeah. I'll be right there..." Raven said. She looked at the amulet and clicked it on quickly, before joining Beastboy and Cyborg in the living room.
"Whoa Rae, nice necklace." Cyborg said, peering at her amulet. Raven gave a amile and they went outside.
"Who's driving?" Beastboy said.
"Hopefully not you..." Raven scoffed. "I remember what happened last time."
Beastboy grinned mischievously while Cyborg laughed at him.
"I'll drive." Cy said.
