Chapter 5:Downhill Run Pt 2
Robin. Cyborg and Starfire reached Beast Boy's room with incredible speed.
"Robin why are we so worried what has happened?"Starfire asked politely
"I don't know Star but Beast Boy said it was bad"
"Yeah, but what if he's playing a joke?"Cyborg asked
"Then he got us good, but for now we have to believe him that something bad happened"
Cyborg bowed his head and sighed in defeat.
Robin's fists banged on the door until he got an answer.
"Alright I'm coming"Beast Boy said while walking down the hall.
He opened the door, and the first thing that Robin noticed was his white shirt was covered in blood but the blood was thick and black which could only mean one person...Raven.
"Beast Boy what happened to Raven?"
"How did you know it was about her?"
"The blood on your shirt it's black...she's the only person I know that has black blood"
"Right come on in"
Beast Boy opened the door all the way so that Robin and the rest of the team could enter his room.
"Where is she?"Robin asked
"In our room"
"Beast Boy, dude I need to know if this is a joke"Cyborg asked
"Does it look like I'm laughing"Beast Boy said in a harsh tone.
"Okay then...I guess not"An anime sweat drop fell from the back of his cybernetic head.
"Beast Boy please...what has happened to Raven?"Starfire said in her worried tone
Beast Boy looked down at the floor and then back to the rest of the titans who were staring at him in concern. Robin who was usually serious about anything dropped his serious look and fell to concern.
"Beast Boy please...you don't have to let everyone in right now..but at least let me in"
He paused for a moment.
"I'm her best friend"
Beast Boy stared into his mask and if he could see his eyes they would be showing his more concern then Starfire and Cyborg put together.
"Alright I don't want to scare Raven so Robin you come in first then, Starfire, the Cy okay?"
"Good now let me in"
Beast Boy opened the door and signaled for Robin to follow him.
When they got to the corner of there room he stopped.
"Wait here"
Robin impatiently did what he said.
"Ravey it's me Beast Boy"
"BB"
"Yes...Robin's going to come in to see you...he's really worried about you"
"Alright...bring him in"
Beast Boy walked away from Raven and outside the room where Robin was still standing.
"She says you can come in"
Beast Boy walked in and Robin followed. As soon as Robin got in her ran over to her.
"Raven...what happened to you?"
"I'll tell you"Beast Boy's serious tone came back. "She doesn't have strength because of what almost happen to her"
"Well tell me"
"She told me that she saw a mysterious figure snooping around the grounds, he was about two years older then her and he was wearing all black...so she went to investigate"
He paused for a minute.
"When she finally got him inside the old help stand she tried to scare him..but the tables turned"
He hung his head low.
"Raven was almost raped"
Robin stared at him and looked like he had just got hit with a ton of bricks.
Robin rushed over to her side.
"Raven it's me Robin"
"Robin"She answered in a hoarse voice.
He turned back to Beast Boy.
"What did he do to her?"
"Well first he broke her arm"He said pointing to the sling.
"Then he unzipped her shirt and un clipped her bra and took a hold of her... breasts and he must have squeezed them hard enough that he punctured the skin.
"Beast Boy...I'm sorry that I ever doubted you...and for once I'm glad that you disobeyed my orders...if you hadn't Raven could have been raped, so it looks like you got there just in time"
"Yeah I know...but I had to knock out that boy...security picked him up, and now I'm waiting for his criminal record"
Robin took of his gloves.
"Robin you took off your gloves"
"Don't get used to it...I want to be as gentle as I can"
"Huh"
Robin slipped a hand under her head and brought her closer.
"Raven...your very lucky to have Beast Boy as your boyfriend, we all thought he was playing a joke on us, but I guess we were wrong, I know your gonna be okay with him around, he'd never stop to protect you and I'm sure he would do anything to help you, your in good hands Raven...and I don't say that to everyone"
He leaned down and gave a slight kiss on her cheek.
Beast Boy got a sudden twinge of jealousy, but realized he had to put it aside because he knew it was a best friend thing.
Robin got up and turned to Beast Boy.
"I meant what I said Beast Boy...you really made a difference in her life, she probably thinks of you as even more of a hero then you already are"
"Thanks Robin...that means a lot to me"
Robin put his gloves back on.
"Now I'm gonna tell then rest of the team what happe..."
DING DING
"What the...what is that?"
"That would be the office calling me about that boys criminal record.
"Mr...Logan...come down to the main office"
"I'm on my way"
"Sorry I have to leave but this is important"
He ran out of the room.
Starfire came in and placed a hand on Robin's shoulder.
"Robin she is...okay?"
"Yes"
Cyborg came in.
"What happened...aren't you gonna tell us?"
"Yes I will but listen...I can't let you see Raven"
"Why Robin"Starfire asked her bright green eyes staring at him with concern.
"Because Star...I can't"
"So man what happened?"
"Raven was...almost raped"
Cyborg looked at him in shock.
"Our Raven..you gotta be kidding me...why did she stop him with her powers?"
"She was to weak"
"Please friends what is this...rape of which you speak"
Robin went over to her ear and started whispering.
"What!...oh...really...that is horrible!"
"Yes it is...but luckily Beast Boy disobeyed my orders and went there otherwise she would have been raped"
"God...well then if we can't see her I'm going back to my room"
"Okay Cy we are to"
Beast Boy
"Alright I'm here"
"Good Mr. Logan"
"So what did you find out?"
"According to the man's criminal records he has been in jail for a total of 5 years for being caught with Heroine, he has spent 5 years in Juvenile Hall, he has kidnaped 10 girls from age 15-18 and he has raped a total of 24 girls"
"OMG"
"Yes I know it's horrible...now your girlfriend Mr.Roth she was almost raped...correct?"
"Yes"
"But you saved her"
"Yes I did"
"Well then feel good about yourself"
"Maim I have one question"
"Yes?"
"Of all the 24 girls that he raped...how many got pregnant?"
"23"
"Really"
"Yes it's quite sad"
"Well I better get going"
He turned around and something fell out of his pocket, it was a diamond ring with a receipt and a piece of white paper.
"Sir what is that?"
"This?"
He picked up the ring.
"Oh it's a ring"
"I can see that...but what is it for?"
"Well I'm going to propose to my girlfriend"
"Well I'm happy for you...do you think she'll say yes?"
"I know she will"
"Good day Mr. Logan and tell Mrs. Logan I said hi"
He smiled and ran out the door.
"I will"
Mrs. Logan I like the sound of that...but will Raven? I mean we've been going out for 1 month now and were going to finish the deed sometime this week...if she's still up to it and we might have to raise a child after that...I know she'll say yes!
Raven
The door of the room creaked open.
"Beast Boy"
She flipped the covers up and swung her feet around the edge. Slowly she got on her feet and started walking down the hall.
"Raven...your walking"
"Yeah BB I feel a lot better"
"I'm glad you do"
Raven looked out the window sighing.
"Raven..whats wrong?"
"Beast Boy...I'm still ready"
"After all that today your still ready?"
"Mmm-Hmm"
"Raven as much as I want this...It'll have to wait a couple days...your hurt"
"Beast Boy I'm fine.. okay you're the one who wants this and suddenly your denying it"
"Raven you almost got raped and you still want to go through with this?"
"Just because I was almost rape doesn't mean I'm hurt"
"But..."
"Believe me...I'm used to it"
"Huh..what are you talking about? If your used to it that means..."He gasped
"It's happened to me before...no big deal"
"No big dealRaven how can you say that...I never would have thought you would have belived that you being almost raped was no big deal"
Raven's eyes started to fill with tears.
"You could have carried that monster's child you could have been hunted down by another man...you could have been taken by someone else then me!"He voice in a loud harsh tone.
Raven couldn't help it, she began to spill tears.
Beast Boy realizing what he did ran over to her and pulled her into a warm embrace.
"Raven...I'm sorry, I just...you could have...I could have lost you"
She buried her head into his shoulder crying.
"I'm sorry...your gonna be okay...it's alright"
He breathing became short and raspy
"It's alright Beast Boy..."
"Raven...there's something I need to ask you"
"Go ahead"
Beast Boy pulled out of the embrace and back up a couple steps. Raven was upset that he pulled away. She felt so safe in his arms...like nothing would ever hurt her agian.
He pulled the ring out of his pockets and cupped it in his hand.
"Raven..?"
She gasped in surprise.
"Will you marry me?"
Raven's face went from upset and soaked with tears to happy.
"Beast Boy of course I will"
He slipped the ring on her finger.
"Whats that?" She pointed to the piece of white paper on the ground.
"Open it"
She carefully bent down and picked up the paper and opened it.
She gasped again. She looked at it and then at Beast Boy.
"You got us a house?"
"Yeah..so when ever our time as titans is up we'll have somewhere to live"
"But how did you have enough money for the ring the house..."
"I've been saving my money since I was 4 years old"
"You've never spent you money on anything?"
"Well there is a couple things"
"And...they are?"
"The ring, the house and ...the car"
"We have a car too"
"Yeah a big one...the kind that fits 8 people"
"Why so many?"
"I didn't know how many children you wanted?"
She gasped again.
"So Ravey..how many were you thinking?"
"Oh I don't know...I've never really thought about my future because I thought I would be alone for the rest of my life after I left the titans"
"But you aren't anymore"
"Well what's you estimate?"
"Oh maybe around 3 or 4"
"Sounds great"
He softly kissed her pale lips.
She pulled away.
"Whats wrong?"
"Nothing Beast Boy...nothing's wrong anymore"
"Do you wanna go skiing Ravey?"
"Yes"
"Alright suit up then"
"You to"
Beast Boy took of his shirt and walked over to Raven.
"Stop it Beast Boy"
She ran her finger through his well defined abs.
"Alright okay...that tickles"
"It does"
"Yeah...now let me go in the bathroom"
"Alright"
20 minutes later they were both ready to go.
"Alright grab a key and lets get the others"
They walked out the door and went over to Robin's room
There was a note on the door.

Sincerly
The rest of the team
"They already went...lets get going"
"Okay...Beast Boy will you teach me?"
"Of course and Raven"
"Yes"
"Call me Gar"
"Gar...whats that stand for?"
"It's shorter version of my real name"
"Alright...Gar"
"I like the sound of it"
"Me too Raven...me too"
