Beautiful Day.
One shot song fic, in Ravens POV. Robxrae(of course!). Enjoy.
It was raining outside, her cloak had been washed with Robin's suit and was now pink, Star had vacuumed her favorite book and she'd run out of tea. This had to be one of the worst days Raven Roth had ever had, And then the alarm went. "And it just gets better." She muttered.
The heart is a bloom,
That shoots up through the stony ground.
There's no room,
No space to rent in this town.
H.I.V.E. were up to there usual tricks, plus this time they felt like leading the Titans on a wild goose chase. Raven flew hard to keep up with the pink bobbing head that was Jinx. She was not in the mood for this.
You're
out of luck
And the reason that you had to care
The traffic is
stuck
And you're not moving anywhere
Jinx battered Raven against the wall of an abandoned warehouse. That would cause a bruise in the morning. The other Titans were battling hard against the other H.I.V.E members and not getting very far. Then there was the evil laughter of Slade, sounding from the top of a nearby building.
You
thought you'd found a friend
To take you out of this place
Someone
you could lend a hand
In return for grace
Everything stopped and all of the fighting ended. "What do you want Slade?" Robin shouted, his voice being blown about it the wind. "Wouldn't you like to know? Patience Robin. Always patience. You will see in time."
It's
a beautiful day
Sky falls, you feel like
It's a beautiful
day
Don't let it get away
With that Slade vanished, along with H.I.V.E. What a waste of an afternoon. As she flew home in her foul mood, a thunder storm started. "Great. Fucking great." Raven was soaked, unhappy and cold. She just wanted to go to bed and never wake up.
You're
on the road
But you've got no destination
You're in the mud
In
the maze of her imagination
She walked into the tower shivering. She ached all over. Robin had locked himself in his bedroom again. 'What a loser.' Raven thought. She staggered into the bathroom and had a long hot shower, just to feel human again. She smiled, or at least half human.
You
love this town
Even if that doesn't ring true
You've been all
over
And it's been all over you
Raven settled on her bed and pulled the covers over her head. There was a knock at the door. Raven grumbled, "What do you want?" She was not in the mood for people asking how she was and if anything was wrong. "I just want to talk." The voice of her leader floated under the door.
It's
a beautiful day
Don't let it get away
It's a beautiful day
She opened the door. "What do you want to talk about?" She asked icily. To her surprise Robin blushed. "Can we talk in private?" Raven gestured for him to come in. The soon he talked the soon he went. "I know everyone thinks I'm obsessed with catching Slade and everything. But I'm not. And the reason I haven't talked to them about it is because they wont listen. You're the only one who will."
Touch
me
Take me to that other place
Teach me
I know I'm not a
hopeless case
'Spit it out idiot.' Raven thought. She knew already that no one else would listen to him. "Slade killed my parents it's my duty to get revenge." He paused and took a deep breath. "I-I also wanted to tell you something Raven." He looked up at her.
See
the world in green and blue
See China right in front of you
See
the canyons broken by cloud
See the tuna fleets clearing the sea
out
See the Bedouin fires at night
See the oil fields at first
light
And see the bird with a leaf in her mouth
After the flood
all the colors came out
Sunshine started to pour through the curtains. There was such a look of hopelessness on his face that Raven just wanted to kiss it all better. 'What am I thinking?' Raven scolded herself. "Go on." She coaxed. He took a step toward her, she was startled.
It
was a beautiful day
Don't let it get away
Beautiful day
He grabbed her around the waist roughly. "What the hell are you doing?" Raven asked, confused. Her heart was beating faster. "I'm in love with you Raven." He said and the world fell away. Robin grabbed her face and kissed her hard on the mouth.
Touch
me
Take me to that other place
Reach me
I know I'm not a
hopeless case
And Raven knew it was right. It was wonderful. The sun was shining brightly on them. So this wasn't that bad a day after all.
What
you don't have you don't need it now
What you don't know you can
feel it somehow
What you don't have you don't need it now
Don't
need it now
Was a beautiful day
"I love you too." She whispered.
Remember to review on your way out.
