CHAPTER 15 A Date
After beating Slade and keeping the game...
"Rae can I ask you something?" Beast Boy said as he walked into Raven's room. Looking around he sees Raven, reading the book of Azar and says "Do you want to go--"
"Hmm?" Raven says while reading his mind, "Yes I'd love to go on a date with you." She says while smiling, and a light bulb blows up near Robin and Starfire.
"How did you know what I was going to say?" Beast Boy said with a thought, 'She must've read my mind.' "Really?" Beast Boy said thinking which day, 'Saturday or Friday...Maybe I should ask her.' "What d--"
"Yes I read your mind, and Saturday will be fine." Raven said gladly. She then continues to read.
"Okay then Saturday it is." Beast Boy says eagerly.
"Okay." Raven says while reading the book of Azar.
"Alright." Beast Boy said finalizing his answer.
"Sure." Raven says to Beast Boy to stop the continuous speaking.
"It will be a surprise! So don't try and read my mind."
Three days later...
"So where are we going?" Raven asked trying not to read Beast Boy's mind. They walk out of the tower and let the Titans know that they will be back in a couple of hours. They fly to the town and Raven follows Beast Boy to where they will spend the evening.
"It's a surprise." Beast Boy says and walks Raven to the beach near the edge of the town's island. Having to dodge cars and loose dogs, they manage to make it there in one piece.
"Here we are! Wait over there." Beast Boy said while pointing to the parking lot and a bench that she could sit on while Beast Boy goes to prepare something for the two of them. Then Beast Boy left to somewhere on the beach.
"Okay then." Raven replies and sits down on the bench while waiting for Beast Boy to come back. She never got a chance to read his mind and didn't want to because she knew if she did, it would spoil their date.
"Okay it's ready!" Beast Boy said about five minutes later, "Close your eyes!" Beast Boy holds Raven's eyes shut and when they get there he says, "Okay now open 'em." Raven opens her eyes to see roses, a little table, a picnic basket, and a box with a present in it.
"Wow. Thanks!" Raven says and immediately asks, "So what's in the box?" she says wondering if it is something for her game or if its something Beast Boy went out and bought for her.
"Well open it and see." Beast Boy responds trying not to be rude. Raven opens the box and sees a book that says, 'All About Chakras.' "I couldn't read the book so I thought I'd give it to you."
"Thanks." Raven says opening the picnic basket revealing pizza, a cup of herbal tea, a can of pop, and a couple more boxes sure to have gifts too. Raven and Beast Boy get the pizza and start to eat, "I thought you didn't like meat." Raven says wondering why Beast Boy was eating a pepperoni pizza.
"Oh this? Mine's not pepperoni it's cheese." Beast Boy said pointing to two halves of pizza, one side with just cheese, and the other pepperoni. Raven gets the cup of herbal tea and Beast Boy the pop. Raven was enjoying her date and wondered when she was going to open the other two boxes. When they were done with the pizza Raven smiled and kissed Beast Boy. "Go ahead and open up the other two gifts." Beast Boy said pointing to the boxes.
"Okay." Raven opens the first box and it contains a poem. "It says
'To my love Raven,
I will always love you no matter what,
I enjoy kicking bad guy butt.
With you I never will fail,
even through snow and hail.
My dearest possession,
Raven of the session.
You are my love and hopes,
up and down all slopes.
My fear is gone, my sorrows have vanished,
I even tried to learn some Spanish.
Something just for you in the next box,
just wait right near the docks.
Love, Beast Boy'" Raven ended with a tear, "Just wait right near the docks? What is that supposed to mean?" Raven says hugging Beast Boy.
"Go there and see for yourself." Beast Boy says walking Raven over to the docks. "Look in the sky. five...four...three...two...one..." Exactly when he said one a plane flies in the sky spelling with it's smoke 'I Love You Raven' in fancy letters.
"I love you too." Raven says and kisses Beast Boy.
"Now open your other gift." Beast Boy says pointing to the second box. Raven opens it this one contains a picture of Raven, sitting on the beach without a care in the world, With her eyes open looking far out into the ocean and her hair blowing in the wind, sitting next to Beast Boy looking out into the ocean. A message was left on it, 'I wrote your poem and painted the picture myself.' They left home at 7:32 p.m. and opened the front door Raven holding her two gifts and Beast boy holding her hand.
"Hello friend Raven and friend Beast Boy! Welcome back!" Starfire says as she lets them in.
"Hi." Raven says and goes inside to find the Titans sitting and watching TV. She reads them the poem Beast Boy wrote and shows them the picture Beast Boy made for her.
"Wow that is so sweet!" Robin and Starfire say while listening to the poem.
"So that's why you were in your room. And whenever you came out you had paint all over you." Cyborg says while looking at the picture.
"Yup." Beast Boy says with slight embarrassment and his face turned red.
