Terra Logan-you will just have to wait and find out, won't you ha ha. no, dont worry though, BB and Raven are just friends, but i mean, if you thought your friend had died or something and then had nightmares about them, youd be pretty happy to see them again, wouldn't you?

Rouge-writing more

Raeraequeen-Terra was off somewhere else i guess, but see what i said to Terra Logan. fear not, its not gonna be Raeven and BB

Terra hovered outside the window. With tears in her eyes, she watched as Beast Boy hugged Raven. How could she have thought anything against them? She felt sick knowing that this was all her fault. BB and Raven were friends. Friends like she could never be with anyone. She couldn't trust like BB did. She couldn't just accept what Raven or anyone told her. She would always doubt them, always think they were hiding something. She watched as BB helped Raven up. She said something and left the room, wiping tears from her eyes. BB sat down on the bed and drew his knees up to his chin. This was her chance.
She stood and stepped from the boulder into the room. BB immidiatly jumped up and threw his arms around her.
"You're alive! You're alive and now you're back! Terra, I-i-i don't even know what to say." He drew back and let his hands slip down so that he was holding her hands. Tears streamed down his face. She smiled, not wanting to explain any of what had happened. She just buried her head in his shoulder.
"All I can say is I'm so sorry for everything. For taking Raven, for running in the first place, for taking it the wrong way, for ever doubting you. For coming back." He pulled back and looked her hard in the eye. He wasn't smiling.
"No. Don't ever say you didn't want to come back. Don't apologize for being real again. Never, ever even say that. Never getting you back would kill me."
"I know," she whispered and looked down at her feet. He reached out and put his finger under her chin and lifted her face back to meet his. She looked into his eyes and saw love that she could hardly admit she deserved. She didn't deserve it, but she had it. She leaned closer to him and they kissed.


Raven walked into her room. So dark. She didn't want the dark right now. She didn't want to admit to who she was. A demon. She couldn't be normal. She threw open the deep purple curtains that covered her windows. The sunlight poured into the forsaken room that it had been unwelcome in for so long. She kneeled in the beam of warmth that spilled onto her blue floor. Something outside cought her eye. A small bird that she was sure did not exist. It was a pheonix(sp?). A birrd made of flames that she had read about. But it was not like those in story books. It was all black. She opened her window and it flew toward her. It stopped right next to the wall and she reached her hand out the window to take what it was offering her. A rose dropped into her hand. A black rose. She smiled at the bird and backed up. It flew into her room. Then something remarkable happened. The flames that made it grew and twisted into the shape of a man. The fire dissapeared to reveal him.
He was a bit taller than Raven. His hair was tied back in a loose pony-tail for it was long and reached his mid-back. It tied back night-dark hair. His eyes were a stunning hazel color that gleamed in the light.
"Hello my Raven," he smiled. She leaned against him, her arms around his waist. He held her in return, and used one hand to stroke her purple hair. "Sweet bird, what's wrong?"
"It's just, well, it's difficult."
"You can tell me anything love." He sat on her bed and she sat next to him. Her hands in his and her head on his shoulder, she told him the happenings of the past two days. "It will get better. Everything is worked out now, correct?"
"Yes. Thank you A'lain, for being here, for everything." He wiped away a tear that slipped down her cheek. She smiled at him. She held up the rose that he had given her. "You know, you're going to need to think of a better gift for me. Anymore roses and Robin will think we've got a gas leak or something." He laughed as she walked over to her dresser and added the flower to a vase of many others. His laugh was smooth and warm. like the sound of a stream in the woods. She came back and kissed him for a moment then took his hands and pulled him to his feet.
"You're trying to get rid of me, aren't you?" he asked jokingly.
"Not for anything in this world," she laughed and kissed him again, "but you need to go. I have to go have dinner. BB will get worried if I stay here by myself too long." He smiled and turned back into the black fire-bird. He circled her room a few times singing an enchanting melody. She hummed along to the pheonix's song, though she knew her voice was nothing in comparison. He circled in close to her and then soared out the window. She blew a kiss, shut the window, and pulled the curtains back across the glass. The room fell into darkness once more.
