Some fancy restaurant, Saturday, 8:12 PM
"May I zake vour vrink ordaers?" Raven's and Beast Boy's waiter asked with a fake French accent.
"Herbal tea," Raven and Beast Boy answered him at the same time.
"Erm...vill zat be vor ze mademoiselle, or 'er zate?" the waiter asked, causing both Raven and Beast Boy to blush furiously.
"Uh.... Both of us..." Beast Boy said, thinking that he could impress Raven by ordering the only thing she drank. It didn't work.
"So, uh..." Beast Boy tried again. "Uhhh.... So, what's up with you...? ...Raven?"
"Hm? Oh, uh...I'm...I'm..." No one had ever asked Raven that. As a matter of fact, no one had ever asked Raven anything about herself before. "I'm great..." she lied. In reality, she was having trouble figuring out how she was doing.
She started to stare at her shoes, thinking that maybe if she didn't look at Beast Boy, he wouldn't ask any more awkward questions. At first, it actually seemed to work, so Raven got confused. When she looked up, she just couldn't believe it.
Beast Boy was sitting there, quietly, (which was in itself a rare occurrence, him being quiet) and looking at his hands in his lap. Worried she'd upset him; Raven leaned forward to talk to him better.
"Hey, are you okay?" she asked him, concerned.
"Oh, yeah, I'm fine," He said, looking up. Raven leaned back and resumed staring at her shoes.
Suddenly, Raven heard a very familiar giggle behind her. She jerked around, but there was no sign of Starfire anywhere. Raven returned to thinking about what she had found out in Star's room. There's no way what she told me could be true Raven thought. But deep inside her mind, something, perhaps one of her emotions, told her that it was the truth.

Flashback
"I need some advice on boys. Everything you know, I want to know." Raven said, trying her best to not to get embarrassed. To her surprise, Starfire started laughing. "What?"
"Raven, THAT'S what was bothering you?! THAT'S what the important thing was?!! HAHAHA!!" Starfire laughed. "Why didn't you just say so? I thought this might be about something bad! Hehe.... So, Raven, why'd you come to me? Why not Cyborg? Or Robin? Or how about Beast Boy?" Starfire asked, smirking knowingly. "If you know what I mean."
"Beast Boy's the reason I need advice," Raven said heavily, which just made Starfire laugh harder.
"Oh, Raven, if you could just see the look on your face!" Starfire laughed, making Raven extremely angry.
"Raven! Control yourself!" Starfire screamed, flying over to the remnants of the once-beautiful Tameranean vase that had just exploded. Raven made the pieces fly into the shape of the vase, and then fused them together.
"Now then..." Raven said, twisting the vase around in midair, "I believe you owe me some information."
"Very well, then..." Starfire said, eyeing her precious vase. "Boys.... Well, what do you want to know about them?"
"Well," Raven said, mentally placing the vase on the floor, "most of all, I want to know what it means when every time you're in one's presence, your heart starts to race, your stomach twists into a knot, your palms sweat, your mind freezes, your lungs tighten, your toes tingle, your vision blurs, and you feel like you're going to die any second," she finally finished.
"Well.... It took you long enough to figure out you are in love, Raven." Starfire said matter-of-factly.
"WHAT?!!"

Raven was abruptly returned to reality when there was a pressure on her hand. She looked up to see a hand on hers, its owner blushing furiously.
"Sorry..." Beast Boy muttered. Beast Boy's face was the perfect example of Christmas colors.
Raven pulled her hand back, but all of a sudden, something deep inside her told her to move forward. Unfortunately for Raven, her body didn't feel like listening to her right then. Beast Boy filled her vision and she suddenly found herself thinking he's so good-looking. She could feel his breath on her face.
All she could manage to say was, "Beast Boy...I..." before the space between their lips was nonexistent....
Raven didn't know how long their lips were pressed together, all that mattered to her was it lasted as long as it possibly could. She found that it was best not to think, to just enjoy the moment. There was nothing Raven could do. She felt, all right. She felt nothing and everything at once. And yet, something was wrong. She tried to forget it, but it was nagging at her mind.
Raven pulled her lips an inch away from Beast Boy's and finally whispered the truth. "I love you, Beast Boy..." Raven slipped her lips onto his once again and started to lean forward more.
This is bliss Raven thought. That is, until a voice shattered the silence.
"Erm.... I 'ave ze 'erbal tea..."
