HAPPY BIRTHDAY PEACHMELBA!
"Raven..."
Terra's
tentative request was replied to by the sound of someone being sick.
Disregarding Raven's strict instructions to the others to NEVER come
into her room, Terra opened the door and walked in. "Raven?" Still no
reply. Terra made her way across to the door of the ensuite, slightly
unnerved by the innate freakiness of the room and its decor. "Raven,
are you okay?" A cough.
"Who's that?"
Terra pushed open the door
of the ensuite and walked in to find Raven leaning over the toilet,
looking decidedly ill. "It's just me. Are you alright? I heard you
being sick, and..."
"Get out of my room!"
"But you're ill!"
"Go
away!" Croaked Raven. She tried to stand up straight and lost her
balance, stumbling and heading for the floor. Terra caught her,
flinging her arms around Raven in an attempt to defy gravity. However,
she ended up falling as well and they both ended up on the floor. Raven
scrambled up again, reaching the toilet just in time. Terra got up and
stood behind her, holding her hair back. When her stomach had finished
expelling its contents Raven slumped back against Terra, groaning. "I'm
never letting Beastboy cook for me again..." Terra couldn't help but
laugh slightly. As she did, the girl in her arms stiffened, angry.
"It's not funny."
"I'm sorry."
"I told you to go away..."
"But I can't leave you when you're like this!" Protested Terra. "I'm not a -total- bitch!"
"Could
have fooled me." Raven felt her stomach heave and leaned over the
toilet, feeling absolutely disgusting. Terra patted her back
reassuringly, which only served to make her angrier. "Stop touching me!
Get out of my room!"
"But-"
"Go -away-!" Terra stood up and
folded her arms, then flounced out. Raven sighed and struggled up,
propping herself up against the sink and rinsing her mouth out. "Here,
medicine-" Raven jumped, surprised, and ended up choking on the water
she was rinsing her mouth with. She coughed desperately, dropping the
cup she had been using. It fell to the floor, smashing, while Raven
tried to get back control of her lungs. "You -idiot-!" She choked.
Terra bit her lip.
"Uh...sorry."
While Raven struggled to catch her breath Terra picked up the shattered
pieces of china, flinging them into the bin. She held out the bottle
and plastic spoon she'd brought with her and Raven glowered. "Thanks."
She snapped, snatching them out of Terra's hands. Tera waited while she
took the medicine, arms folded. "You should go to bed."
"Don't tell me what to do."
"Fine then, don't! I don't get you, Raven! I go out of my way to be nice and you're just horrible to me!"
"Go away then."
"No. I want to make sure you're okay."
"If I go to bed will you go away?"
"Yeah."
With that, Raven shuffled to her bed, collapsing on it with a groan.
Terra pulled the blankets over her and tucked her in. "Night Raven."
"Whatever."
Terra left with a smile, feeling somehow just a little bit more connected with Raven than before.
Fin
Woohoo, oneshot heaven! If Peachmelba begs enough, maybe I'll do some more, but I don't really watch Teen Titans, so all the fics I do are at her request...I barely know ANYTHING about Terra, so if she's wildly OOC I'm sorry.
