SOME THINGS CAN NEVER BE FORGOTTEN

Some things can't be taken away

Beast Boy slammed his door shut, his hands trembled from the fury he was feeling inside of him.

"Stupid Cyborg" he muttered angrily under his breath as he walked towards his bathroom, he just hoped that warm water and shampoo would be enough to wash away the purple dye that was on his skin, he knew it wouldn't be enough to take away his anger.

He turned the water off as he reached for a towel, he was surprised to find one being handed to him.

"Terra what the hell are you doing?" he screamed as he covered himself and looked at her, his eyes had a mild panicked look in them.

"I came to see if you were ok" replied Terra as she turned her head away from the wet changeling, her face was now a bright red. Beast Boy smiled as he took the towel from her and wrapped it around his waist.

""Thanks" he smiled as he grabbed a smaller towel and placed it over his head and walked back into his room, closely followed by the still blushing Terra.

"Can I ask you something?" asked Terra as she watched him dry his hair with the towel, she couldn't really take her eyes of his slightly wet body.

"Fire away" replied Beast Boy as he looked at her, his wet hair hung loosely above his eyes, to Terra he looked even more cute when he was wet.

"Why are you green?" she asked bluntly, she couldn't think of a better way of asking him. Beast Boy wasn't really that surprised at her question, in fact he had often wondered why she hadn't asked him sooner.

"I've been green all my life" said Beast Boy as he draped the towel over his shoulder and reached over to a small picture frame on his bed side table, "Both of my parents biologists, really good ones, they took me all over the world with them. This one time when we where in Upper Lamumba, a country in Africa, I came down with a rare tropical disease" he said as he handed her the picture, it was a small one of him in his mothers arms standing next to them was a tall man, his face had a he smile as he held the babies arm.

"You where a really cute baby" smiled Terra as she looked at the green baby in the picture, "But you still haven't told me why your green" she said as she handed the picture back to him, she watched as he kissed it gently before he put it back in it's place.

"I was getting to that" he smiled as he looked at her, he motioned for her to turn her head away was he reached for his underwear and uniform. Terra sighed as she placed her hands over her eyes and turned away from him, she couldn't help but giggle to herself as she heard him struggle to put the lower part of his uniform on.

"Anyway my father in an attempt to save me treated me with an untested machine, luckily for me it worked unfortunately it turned my skin green" he said as Terra turned back around and looked at him, her face was still slightly red from all the blushing she had done.

"I bet your parents where surprised by that" she said as she inched her hand closer to his, "I mean it's not everyday you have a green baby" she smiled as she watched Beast Boy try and suppress his laughter.

"They where now that you mention it" he smiled as he remembered the look on his mothers face the first time she saw his green skin.

"Your lucky" aid Terra as she watched him smile at the memory he was lost in, "Your parents really loved you"

"I know" whispered Beast Boy as he glanced over at the picture, "I really miss them" he thought out loud as he looked away from he picture, tears began to well up in his eyes.

"What happened to them?" asked Terra as she moved closer to him, placing hand on top of his, hoping that it would bring it some sort of comfort.

"A couple of years after my father saved me my mother was attacked by a Black Mamba snake, that was the first time I tapped into my powers" he said as he placed his hand on Terra's, making her smile slightly, "I still don't exactly know how I did it but I saved her, she called me her little Beast Boy" he smiled as he remembered his mother words, little did he know her pet name would stick with him his whole life.

"Four years after the snake incident they where killed in a boating accident, they left me behind because I never liked the water as a boy" he said as he broke down into tears, making Terra warp her arms around his neck and bring him closer to her, "If I had only been there I could have saved them" he cried as he closed his eyes and allowed his tears to fall onto Terra's black t shirt.

"I'm sorry" was all Terra could think of saying, she knew it wouldn't help him but part of her hoped it would.

"What's the point of having super powers if you can't save the people you care about?" he asked as he cried against her shoulder, Terra couldn't answer that question, she knew what it was like to loose a family because of your powers.

"I guess to stop people having the same thing happen to them" said a voice from the door way, making them both break their embrace gently and look to see where the voice came from. They smiled as they saw Cyborg standing in the door way, tears fell gently from his human eye.

"How long have you been standing there?" asked Beast Boy as he stood up and looked at his metal friend.

"Long enough man" smiled Cyborg in reply as he walked towards Beast Boy.

"I'll leave you two alone" smiled Terra s she walked out of the room, leaving only Beast boy and Cyborg staring at each other.

"I'm sorry" said Cyborg as he extended his metal hand to Beast Boy, surprising the green shape shifter slightly, "Can we still be friends?" he asked as he looked at his friend.

"When were we never friends" smiled Beast Boy as he shook Cyborg's hand, making Cyborg smile, "I mean us freaks have got to stick together" he said as they left his room, Cyborg's huge arm was draped over his small shoulder.
