They ignored the lamp. She hugged him, as if she was hugging a child who had skinned its knee. She held him caringly, softly, and lovingly. He sobbed into her shoulder.

"Oh, Rae…" Beast Boy suddenly looked up, aware of what he was doing. And of what he had just said. He knew the nickname was a hated one for Raven. "Raven," he muttered, "I really need to be alone know. My head and…chest are feeling weird." He didn't want to say his heart was thumping fast, and his head was dizzy from the hug.

She nodded. "I feel the same way." She said. Then she blushed. Another item broke in Beast Boys room.

'I got to get out of here before I break everything.' Raven thought frantically. 'This can't be happening.' She nervously excused herself and walked out. Before she shut the door, she peeked in to see Beast Boy staring after her with dazed eyes. Then his eyes flew to the floor, his cheeks red in embarrassment. "Bye Rae." He said.

Raven walked back to her room and flopped onto her bed. Her arms were tingling and her cloak had a few of Beast Boys tears on it. She brushed her fingers across her arms and sighed.

Beast Boy stood leaning on his door, looking up towards the ceiling. If he had looked toward his window, he might have been prepared. He had no idea that someone had seen the whole thing. And he had no idea that that person was crying angry tears, standing outside his window, even though it was on the 10th floor.

That person's eyes were glowing yellow.

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Why is this happening? I just wanted to help Beast Boy, right? I didn't do it to…I DON'T LOVE HIM! I-I can't. I can't love. I can never love. It will destroy me…

Thoughts swarmed through Raven's head like angry bees. She began to rub her temples. Meditation. She needed meditation. She hovered above her bed, chanting those familiar, soothing words.

"Azarath, Metrion, Zenthos. Azarath, Metrion, Zenthos…"

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

What was that? How could you break down and cry on HER! That was so stupid, now she thinks I'm a baby. WAIT! Why do I care what she thinks? I DON'T LOVE HER! I can't. Terra was WRONG! Raven is just a friend. A really pretty, kind friend. WAIT! AHHHH! She can't love me. I-I needed consolation, she gave it, that's all. Right…That's all…That's all it will ever be.

Beast Boy sat on his bed, hugging his knees to his chest. He couldn't love Raven. Raven the Dark Goddess, who sneered at his jokes, never smiled, never laughed. Her eyes held no emotion, but their beauty, so purple, almost a dark blue…and her hair, almost the same color as the night sky. Her lips, so graceful…WAIT!

I can't be thinking about HER!! She will never love me anyway. I'm just Beast Boy the joker. The annoying one who gets in her way. Never…never…never…

And laying on his bed, Beast Boy fell asleep, thoughts of the Dark Goddess calming him into slumber…where he saw her again.

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

"Robin? I seek your advice…" Starfire of Tameran's whimsical voice floated through the Boy Wonder's door, softly, almost unheard.

"Star? What is it? Is something wrong?" Robin's voice held concern. His mask eyes were lowered in an appearance of confusion. It was so adorable, Starfire almost giggled. But no, there was an important thing she had to talk to him about.

"Robin, perhaps it would be better if we sat down? I have much to ask you…" Starfire said, her eyes holding their usual sparkle, but, Robin noticed, the sparkle seemed to have dimmed in her puzzlement.

Robin motioned for her to sit on his bed, while he sat next to her, facing her with bewilderment.

"What do you want to know Star?"

Starfire took a deep breath and looked him in the eyes-err…mask.

"Robin you are my best friend, so I believe you can assist me in my problem. I have…had a certain feeling in my stomach area when I am around…someone…" Clever me…I did not say YOU Robin…Therefore, my heart will not be broken…."I believe on Earth, these feelings indicate something called 'Love'?"

Robin had an even more confused look on his face, but it was added now with panic. What if Star likes someone else? She has to…or else she wouldn't be talking to me…Beast Boy?…no…He likes Raven…Cyborg?…not likely…SOMEONE OUTSIDE THE TOWER!!!

His mask narrowed on one side, widening on the other.

"Starfire, who is this person? Anyone I know?" Robin said, choosing his words carefully.

"Umm…yes…he is…but if I told you…you would tell him…and I do not…want to be hurt," Starfire stammered out, blushing at her confused self.

"Star…you can tell me anything…" Robin pleaded, wanting to know if he was wishing on a dying star. If his dreams were gone. If he had no hope.

"Robin, I wish that I could, but I…I wish to be sure of you-his affections for me…" She whispered slowly, hoping he would grasp the meaning of her mix-up.

He wasn't the Boy Wonder for nothing…A light clicked in his head, and it shone so bright that he was struggling to hold in his excitement. After all, she might not be talking about him.

"Does…he live in the tower?"

A nod.

"Do you talk to him often?"

A nod.

"Is he Beast Boy?"

A shake.

"Is he Cyborg?"

A shake.

His mask widened, and she felt her balloon of hope deflate. He obviously was searching for the right way to 'let her down easy'. He did not love her.

"Is it me…" he whispered, as more of statement than a question.

A nod.

Her lips were consumed by his.

(STAR/ROB FLUFF!! WAFF!!!! 'You like waffles don't cha Raven?' 'More that life itself…' HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! I hate myself…I made such a bad grade on my test...I wanna thank my first 3 reviewers that I'm too lazy to look up! THANK YOU SO MUCH!
