Chapter 5: Love is such sweet sorrow, or perhaps it's simply pain
Raven contacted the tower with her communicator. Her face flickered onto the screen, contorted with pain as she saw Beast Boy in the room. He saw her look and left. The other Titan's looked at Raven, confused. She sighed.
"Uh, guys… I guess you should know about me and BB…" she began. "…So I'll stay away from Beast Boy and hopefully with time I can put my emotions away, just like it's always been." After the Titans heard this they all sweat-dropped.
"Y'all, I think I just heard miss depression say she had a lil' sumthin sumthin goin' on with that idiotic ball of green fluff…" Cyborg's eyes were popping out of his head. "This ain't happening… I mean, come on dawgs; are you trying to tell me this is really happening?" he asked as the Titans nodded their heads. Cyborg gave a little eep that sounded suspiciously like Starfire. He then bolted from the room screaming something about parallel universes and needing to get back to the real Titans. Raven glared after Cyborg. Had she not been so upset with Beast Boy slipping through her fingers, she'd have reduced him to a piece of scrap metal. Starfire looked at her distraught friend and with empathetic eyes glittering with tears she sighed.
"Friend Raven, I mourn for you and your loss of friend Beast Boy's affections. I will aid you in the search to obtain methods of healing you of your terrible affliction." She said gravely. Raven sweat-dropped along with the other Titans.
"Uh, I'll help you and BB too, you know, like Star said…" Robin looked a bit frazzled by his girlfriend's disturbingly long sentence.
"Thanks," Raven said softly, a brief flicker of admiration crossed her distressed features. Robin had a talent with the alien girl; he was probably the only one of them that understood everything she said in her terribly proper English. Raven closed her communicator and left the crime scene, people beginning to tentatively make their way back into the club. She wandered the streets until midnight at which time she found herself curled up in a secluded area of the park, battling her growing love for Beast Boy and the severe pain it brought.
Meanwhile Beast Boy was frantically searching for any information on Juliet and Romeo while Starfire and Robin tried unsuccessfully to locate Cyborg's whereabouts.
"He'll come back when he's ready, right now we have to deal with uh, Raven and Beast Boy." He had appeared to have taken the news of their confessions quite well but inwardly was doing the same thing as Cyborg. Star, on the other hand… As of now it appeared Raven could cope with the pain brought on by thoughts of BB but seeing him took her to the edge.
"GUYS!" they heard Beast Boy's excited cry.
