Square one, eh. Better than triangle one half I suppose. Let's just hope they can get to circle three with no difficulties. Wow. None of that made any sense at all. Meh.
Great chapter. Half angst is better than complete angst. Unless it is the romantic kind of angst and not the depression angst. Oh, Romantic angst exists. Some tell me I can write it quite well. Keep writing, and update soon.

They made up and spent one day just chatting…now they only have three days left. Beast Boy felt nervous, his palms went sweaty and he's glad he has gloves. He shivered slightly at the cold of the morning. He set his alarm clock so he'd wake up in time to catch Raven meditating on the roof.
He heard his voice come from the roof. Soft and distant…Beast Boy felt drawn to her voice. "Azarath Metrion Zinthos, Azarath Metrion Zinthos, Azarath Merion Zinthos," she stopped realizing Beast Boy behind her. "You want to meditate?"
"Nah, meditating isn't my thing," he said but sat down anyway.
"Do you ever meditate?" she retorted. "Or drink tea? By the way, that's been a thought provoking thing, since when do you drink tea?" Raven played with the gem that Beast Boy gave him. It reflected the light and temporarily blinded Beast Boy. Thinking she did that no purpose, he placed his hand over the gem.
"Can you stop that?" he asked.
"Sorry, I didn't know it was shining into your eye." Raven lowered her hand. Beast Boy caught the cloth around Raven's hand. He quickly grabs her hand.
"What happen?" Beast Boy asked.
"Uh, I cut myself." She whispered. He unwrapped the cloth and saw the gash. He held her palm close to his lips. "I can heal it myself," she whispered pulling her hand back. "I just…forgot I could. Momentary amnesia." Raven looked at her palm which started to glow blue. In moments, the gash was gone and she sighed.
"You want to go to the park?" he asked. Raven shuddered.
"Why won't we try roller skating again?" she suggested. Beast Boy smiled.
"And Frisbee!" he cried.
"You got spit all over it the first time. I am not handling your spit," she replied.
"Aww, c'mon Rae, please?" he begged. Raven shrugged.
"Fine, but get spit on it, I'll place you in another dimension!" she said.
Raven was yet again standing on roller-skates. She hesitated slightly and held on to Beast Boy tightly. "I just forgot how hard it was to stand up," she murmured. She almost slipped and pulled hard on Beast Boy's shoulder. "Sorry."
"Here," he said holding Raven by her arm. He pulled her arm straight and skated backwards and started to lead Raven. She started slowly. "Left, right, left right," he instructed.
"O-okay, since when did you become smart?" she asked.
"Hey," he accused playfully. "Here, I'm letting go!" he said slowly letting go of her arm. She gasped softly as he let go.
"I – I got it," she murmured. All it took was one single misstep and Raven fell. "AH!" she fell and grabbed at anything near her. Her eyes were closed during the fall and she knew she fell on someone. She opened her eyes seeing Beast Boy under her with his arms wrapped around her waist. She got up slowly and he got up with her. (They were still on their knees.) Raven felt Beast Boy move closer to her and their lips met for a while. Raven's eyes suddenly flew open and pushed away.
"Uh, let's do Frisbee now," she whispered. She said quickly untying her skates and returning them.
Beast Boy turned to his dog form and got the Frisbee. "Ready?" she asked. He nodded. She threw the Frisbee and chanted along as it flew to give it further distance. Beast Boy ran with speed not normal to usual dogs. He grabbed the Frisbee, making sure he wouldn't drool on it, and turned back to Raven. "Is there any drool?" she asked. Beast Boy shook his head and dropped the Frisbee. Raven picked it up. "Go," she threw the Frisbee. This time, her mind slipped into thinking about the kiss that she can so easily avoid. The Frisbee ended up flying a longer range than she thought.
Beast Boy ran after it quickly, his breath huffing. 'Is Raven trying to kill me?' he thought. Raven frowned a silent "oops" came to mind as she thought about it.
Beast Boy came back exhausted. "Uh, sorry?" she said leaning down patting him on the head. "I didn't mean to do that…" Beast Boy turns back to his human form. "Maybe I should teleport us back to the Tower. "Azarath," she glanced at the panting Beast Boy and sighed, "Metrion," she felt blush rush to her cheeks as she thought about what happen. A sudden burst of power, "ZINTHOS!" she cried and the black mist whirled around.
"Beast Boy, are you that tired?" she asked as she saw Beast Boy's face when she turned around. He shook his head.
"It's just all that teleporting thing…it still scares me." He admitted. Raven nodded and turned to the kitchen.
"Food?" she asked. "Because I think we skipped lunch and we're heading straight on to dinner." Raven looked into the refrigerator and sighed. She sweat-dropped and said, "Uh, our refrigerator is a ghost town right now. Let's go out, again. Honestly, you think Robin might actually leave us with enough food!"
"Yea," he murmured. "So where are we going?"
"You pick," she replied hastily. "I don't know anywhere at all that anybody might like."
Beast Boy ended up picking Fresh Choice – a semi-vegetarian restaurant. Raven looked around while she sat. "Let's go! It's an all you can eat buffet!" he grabbed Raven's arm.
"AH!" she cried as he pulled her along. He came back with an arm-load of food. She sighed as she picked at her food gently. Beast Boy wolfed down his and was finished with a plate within a minute. "Pace yourself," Raven said. Beast Boy gave a slobbery smile.
"I am, just wait till we get the desert," said Beast Boy. Raven let out a sigh, but smiled along.
Beast Boy ended up being quite bloated as he leaned back. He didn't even have room for desert. Raven sighed. "I guess this is our cue to go," she whispered. Her hand went to her neck to twist the gem around, but she felt nothing but the collar of her cloak. Her heat sank immediately; a sickening feeling entered her stomach. "Oh no," she cried.
"What happened?" Beast Boy asked.
"T-the gem," she whispered. "The one you gave me. I think … I think I dropped it…when I fell during roller skating." Beast Boy frowned. "I'm sorry, but we have to go back!" Raven got up and lifted and went out of the restaurant. She waited for Beast Boy to come up before she raised her arms and chanted the three words.
"Uh," he grunted. "Teleporting…again," a sick look came to his face. Raven sighed. 'Don't puke on the cloak,' she thought.
They landed in the park and Raven went searching for it immediately. "We need light," she whispered.
"No problem," said Beast Boy. He turned into a firefly and gave off some light. She smiled rather nervously and started again. Her hand hit something cold.
"Hey, a bit more light here," she said. The firefly Beast Boy came and Raven sighed. It's only a rock. "Where can it be? We've searched everywhere where the gem could've fallen."
Beast Boy resumed his form. "It's…no big deal," he said.
"It's important," she whispered. "You gave it to me." Raven said blushing slightly. Beast Boy felt heat rush to his cheeks as well and was rather thankful that it was dark and they couldn't really see each other's blushes. "Maybe someone took it," she sighed. "Someone probably did take it already."
"Let's try looking again," he said. He grabbed Raven's hand and pulled her up. Beast Boy heard Raven's sighs as they continued to look. "Don't worry," he said holding Raven's hand tightly. "We'll find it."
"I'm sorry," she said. "Let's just turn back…I'm sorry I dragged you into this," she murmured turning around. Beast Boy took his other arm and whirled her around. It was dark, but their eyes adjusted so Raven could tell she was face to face with Beast Boy. (AN: pretty close up together…)
"We'll find it," he said. "And besides, I highly doubt you could sleep thinking you lost something that means a lot to you."
"I guess you're right for a change," she whispered.
"For once can you give a compliment without an insult?" Beast Boy laughed.
"I'll think about it after we find the gem," she replied. Beast Boy shrugged and went on looking for it with his hand holding Raven's. This time, he finally realized that he was still holding Raven's hand. He dropped her hand when he remembered.
"Uh, sorry." He said.
"I-it's okay. I…like it when you do that," she whispered. Beast Boy smiled and held her hand in his again.
After looking for a long time, Beast Boy could only find the chain. The chain had been broken off the latch. "The gem must've fallen off when the necklace fell off," Raven whispered. "It should be close by, shouldn't it? If nobody took it, at least…can you turn into a firefly again? It's really dark here,"
"Uh," Beast Boy didn't say anymore words and morphed.
"Move a little close here," she said. "Unless you want me to squish you…" Beast Boy quickly moved there. A glint caught Raven's eyes. "Move a bit closer," she ordered. Raven reached out her hand and touched something. She smiled. "I-it," she whispered.
"What?" cried Beast Boy. "What is it?"
"It's here," she said holding out the gem. She took the chain and frowned. "Now I have to fix the chains."
"Yea," whispered Beast Boy.
"But at least I found it," she said.
"Yea," he said again. He gave her hand a squeeze and Raven shivered. She wasn't afraid, but…
"Let's go home," Raven suggested.
Raven sat in her bed thinking about the way she acted with Beast Boy. She shivered. Too friendly for her comfort…but she wasn't faking it. She actually meant it. She looked at the hand that Beast Boy held. "We're just friends," she whispered.
I know we've been friends forever
But now I think I'm feeling something totally new
And after all this time, I've opened up my eyes
So now I see, you were always with me
Could it be you and I never imagined
Could it be suddenly
I'm falling for you
Could it be you were right here beside me
And I never knew
Could it be that it's true that it's you
That it's you
Raven frowned. "Just friends" doesn't seem to be working between her and Beast Boy. She sighed. "Just friends," she chanted like her usual chant. She took in a deep breath and let it out. "Friends, just friends, is all! Nothing is going on between us!" Yea, right you kissed him! A voice said. You're practically in LOVE with him!
"Shut up!" she thought out loud. "We're just friends!"
It's kinda funny, you were always near
But who would ever thought that we would end up here?
But every time I need you, you've been there for me through
Now it's clear
I've been waiting for you
Could it be you and I never imagined
Could it be suddenly
I'm falling for you (I am falling)
Could it be you were always besides me
And I never knew
Could it be that it's true that it's you
Oh, that it's you
She closed her eyes. Friends…they were friends! She kept on repeating that in her mind, but it always seems wrong. What is she thinking about? She does love him, it's obvious…she knows that. And now, now she's afraid of it?
"We started out as friends," she whispered to herself, "and now…I think we're more than just 'friends'. Way more than just friends." He kissed you, stupid! Her voice inside her cried loudly. "And I kissed him back," she reasoned.
'Cause today is the start of the rest of our lives
I can see it in your eyes
Oh, that it's real
And it's true,
And it's just me and you
Could it be?
That it's true
That it's YOU!
Could it be you and I never imagined
Could it be suddenly
I'm falling for you (I am falling)
Could it be you were right here besides me
And I never knew
Could it be that it's true that it's you
"That it's you," she whispered. "I guess we're out of the 'just friends' thing, and now we're on to somewhere else. She held the chain and gem and smiled. She closed her eyes trying to sleep. After today, there's two more days…two more days…
