A/N: Alright, hello, I'm making this author's note uncharacteristically short, due to the fact that 1) I have exams tomorrow & desperately need to study for them, & 2) This is the chapter leading up to one of the major parts of my story, so it's important you read it ASAP!!

Let me just thank all of you for the 15 reviews you gave so fast, I truly appreciate it! And also, if you are bored & want to watch the world be taken over by a giant chicken, please read the FF. my sister and I wrote called "World Starts With Die"!

Ok?

Good. Now here's the Amep...

Amep: She doesn't own any of the Teen Titans characters, or anything else about them. All she has is a pair of old socks and some moldy tuna casserole, enjoy.

CYS: Alright-y then, please read & review!! Thank you all the wonderful people who have so far, I love you!! MWUAH!!


It was morning. What few straggaling rays of the breaking dawn which squeezed their way through the sealed window danced feverish red and gold masquerade in the center of the caliginous bedchamber. Beast Boy had left the previous night, mere moments after their small auspicious chat, after being summonned by Robin in the main hall; and hadn't come back since.

Try as she had to slumber, at the meerest sign of weariness or closing of her eyes an immese feeling of dread fell over her heart, and she would be shrewdly brought back into reality. She always felt as though something was missing....

Maybe it was.

Beast Boy......

Had she gotten that used to him staying with her every night? Waiting and watching until morning, when he would always be ready with her breakfast, or the other Titans' "Get Well Soon" cards, or fresh blankets? Was she so accostomed to seeing his smiling face, his quirky jokes? And why couldn't she rest without the charmfull lullaby of his rythmic, steady breathing as she nodded off?

Why not now?

Why was it, that without him here...

She couldn't sleep?

Sighing softly as she dressed, Raven contemplated her predicament.

'Well,' she thought stubbornly, 'It's over with now, I'm just going to have to get over it, just forget it like everything else... After all, none of this could ever be real, people like me aren't meant to have friends

.... or to fall in love.'

And so it was that the usual, unsmiling Raven finally emerged from the daunting penseive of her thoughts and came, once again, into the bitter extremidies of the world.


A/N: Did you like it? I'm trying to keep my chapters short now, so I can post more often. (That one hospital scene took FOR-EV-ER!!!!!!!)

Anyway, to all my reviewers, ('cuz sorry, I don't have time to write for all of you!! DON'T HURT MEEEEEEEE!!! WAAHHH!!) just know that I appreciate you guys soooooo much, and I'm happy there are at least some people out there who enjoy my fanfiction!

Please continue being wonderfull!

Ciao 4 Now!! -
