So, here's the most recent one that I've written. I don't have one written after this one, so if anyone has any suggestions, just let me know in your review. This one is BB/Rae, and it's my first ever fanfic that focuses totally on them. I had a lil' bit of BBRae in And Yet but it was more of a StarRob. So anyway, yep. Hope you enjoy it.
By the way, this takes place right after the episode "Spellbound" ends.
I don't own Teen Titans or the song "He Ain't Worth Missing" by Toby Keith
He Ain't Worth Missing
After Cyborg had ruined their moment with the ball of dirty socks, Beast Boy returned to Raven's room later that night. She opened the door for him and he came in to find her sitting on the floor, not hovering like she did when mediating. Just sitting. He walked over and took a seat next to her.
"It's not your fault Rae…" he mumbled. She didn't even look up. Beast Boy was angry. Not at her, but at the stupid Malchior that hurt her so much. Raven slowly raised her head and looked at Beast Boy.
"Why…did you come back here? You could have just left me alone."
He's flying high tonight
He's got a brand new lover
Here you come a-runnin'
You're looking for some cover
I know you're sad and lonely
I know you're feeling blue
You miss him so much
Won't let me get too close to you
"Raven, don't you remember what I said? You're never alone." He replied and she let out a shuddering breath, and Beast Boy could tell she'd been crying. He slowly lifted his arm and put it around her hesitantly. She froze for a second, then leaned against him lightly.
"I just…why did I fall for him?" Beast Boy had a feeling she wasn't talking about falling for his lies. He looked at her anxiously. He had been rather mean to her before Malchior showed up and he felt terrible. Yes Raven was…creepy. But Beast Boy still liked her…
"I wish I could just go back…" mumbled Raven.
Oh he ain't worth missin'
Oh we should be kissin'
Stop all this foolish wishin'
He ain't worth missin'
I know your head is turnin'
I know your heart is burnin'
Girl you gotta listen
Don't you know he ain't worth missin'
"Raven, listen to me. We all make mistakes. I mean…it's not like you were the first to fall for the wrong person," said Beast Boy slowly. Raven glanced at him with wide-eyes. "It doesn't matter. I'll be here. I promise." Her eyes started to glisten again, and she lowered her face quickly, crying quietly. Beast Boy rubbed her back slowly, wishing she'd realize that he was here for her.
You know I'm here to save you
But you ain't through cryin' yet
Look at your pretty face
All red and soakin' wet
I'm gonna try and make him
Just a memory
Come on baby let's get started
First thing you got to see…
"Raven. I need to tell you…I uh…" she looked up at him expectedly, her face tear streaked. "I'm here for you." She didn't seem to understand what he meant and he groaned. "I…" He leaned in suddenly and kissed her lightly, pulling away almost immediately. Raven just stared at him.
"Beast Boy…" she said, and somehow he knew she was going to turn him down. Stupid Malchior.
Oh he ain't worth missin'
Oh we should be kissin'
Stop all this foolish wishin'
He ain't worth missin'
I know your head is turnin'
I know your heart is burnin'
Girl you gotta listen
Don't you know he ain't worth missin'
"I don't know if I can…" she continued and it was Beast Boy's turn to look away. He didn't want to see her eyes when she said this. But it didn't matter what she said. That wouldn't change how he felt. He just needed to show her.
If you need someone to hold you
Someone to ease your pain
Well I'll be holding steady
Girl when you get ready
I'm gonna show you
Love is a good thing
Yeah love is a good thing
Raven took a deep breath. She wasn't sure how to respond. She remembered what Beast Boy had said a moment ago when she said she wanted to go back. That made her think of Terra and the empath winced slightly. She remembered how she felt when Terra had Beast Boy utterly captivated. But Malchior had been different. Hadn't he?
Oh he ain't worth missin'
Oh we should be kissin'
Stop all that foolish wishin'
Ooh the boy ain't worth missin'
I know your head is turnin'
I know your heart is burnin'
Girl you gotta listen
Don't you know he ain't worth missin'
"Raven, it doesn't matter what you say. I'm still gonna be here and I'm still gonna tell you to quit thinking about that idiot," said Beast Boy firmly. Raven looked at her bookshelf, then at Beast Boy. Why was she so distraught over Malchior when she had the person she'd been interested before the book. And who certainly hadn't lied to her.
Beast Boy shifted slightly, preparing to leave. He was starting to think that Raven wanted to be by herself, even if that probably wasn't a good idea at this moment.
Oh he ain't worth missin'
Oh we should be kissin'
Stop all that foolish wishin'
He ain't worth missin'
I know your head is turnin'
I know your heart is burnin'
Girl you gotta listen
Raven looked up in surprise as Beast Boy removed his arm from her shoulder and started to stand. Did he think he was leaving? She muttered her three words quietly and a small black curl of a tendril encircled the changeling's ankle, pulled, and he was sent tumbling to the ground.
"Why are you leaving, Beast Boy?"
"Uh…I thought you wanted to be alone," mumbled Beast Boy in embarrassment.
"What gave you that idea?"
"Umm…when you said 'I don't know if I can' and then trailed off. I know what you were going to say. I'll leave you alone. Sorry." He huffed. Raven blinked at him, then a small smile spread across her face.
"You didn't let me finish. What I was going to say with I don't know if I can forget Malchior, but I can probably move on. Stay here Beast Boy. With me." It took a lot for her to say the last two words, and Beast Boy knew that. He also understood what she meant and nodded, scooting back over to her and replacing his arm around her.
"Don't worry. I'll be here." He said and she dropped her head so that it leaned against his shoulder. "Want me to make you forget him?" asked Beast Boy devilishly. Raven rolled her eyes but said sincerely,
"You already have."
So...that's that. This is as far as I have written, one shot wise. I'm working on a fanfic for another section. (as in, not Teen Titans) but I would love to write another one shot if anyone has any ideas. Or pairings they want to see. That I'll do...I won't do anything but StarRob or BBRae...but otherwise, I'm open for pretty much anything. If anyone has song suggestions, that'd be great too.
