Chapter 1
Can't Deny it

Raven furrowed her brow before opening her eyes.She blinked a few times,to get her eyes used to the rough candlelight,before uncrossing her legs and placing her feet on the floor.She walked over to her bathroom door and opened it,putting out all the candles in her room with a wave of black magic at the same time.No need to cause a fire.

She walked into the bathroom,throwing off her cloak into a basket.She had her own bathroom because supposedly 'girls take forever in the bathroom'.Yeah right.Beast Boy had been known to spend weeks in the boys' communal one,passed out in the bath.The candles flickered as she tossed her leotard into the same basket and laid her belt down on a shelf.She stretched a bit before getting into the fragrant water.

Letting the hot water mull over her,she let her mind drift to the reason she hadn't been able to meditate.A green,annoying reason.She sighed inwardly.How come,even though he wasn't even in the same room as her,he could affect her like this?So focused on her own thoughts of the grass stain was she,that she failed to hear the rather noisy thoughts of the fly currently in the vent above her room.

Beast Boy had watched as Raven meditated for an hour.An hour!She seemed pretty restless though,constantly rearranging herself in midair.He'd almost decided to give up and go play video games when she got up and walked to her bathroom.He mentally prepared himself.

Okay Beast Boy,this is it.Any regrets?

He rubbed his hands---errr---whatever it is that flys have---together.

Yeah. I wish I had a better plan than this!

You could always chicken out and go watch Raven have a bath...

Beast Boy almost morphed back into a human out of shock.Where did that thought come from?

Come on,you know you want to.After all,that leotard leaves a lot of room for imagination...

No!Not gona happen!I can't afford to think of Raven like that!

But you know you want to...

Beast Boy deftly pushed that thought to the back of his head.He had to focus on the task at hand.He quickly flew through the vent opening and dropped to the floor.Morphing back into a human,he quickly surveyed his surroundings.Aha!There it was!He snatched it from its precarious position on top of the bookcase.

Morphing into a monkey,he performed a quick victory dance until he snapped to his senses and realised he was still in enemy territory. Running to the door,he paused before hitting the button.

Come on,you got what you came for.Now let's go watch Raven...

Beast Boy streaked out of the room before the voice could convince him otherwise.


Raven stretched again as she walked down the corridor.A bath had made her feel better,even if her head was still in turmoil,constantly churning images of the changeling through her subconcious.Why couldn't she stop thinking about him?It wasn't like she liked him or anything.Not at all.He's just an annoying little grass stain.Emphasis on little.

She stopped at the doors to the common room.She needed some herbal tea.Walking into the room,however,she noticed something that made her very,very angry.

The boys of their team sat in front of the big-screen tv.That wasn't unusual.The problem was the game they were playing.

"Mega Monkeys 4..."

The boys froze at the sound of her voice.Slowly turning around, they came face to face with a four-eyed demon formerly known as Raven.Their faces dropped.

"Which one of you went into my room?"She managed to spit out in that venemous voice.

Robin and Cyborg had absolutely no loyalty in the face of an angry Raven.Panicking,they shoved the hapless Beast Boy towards her."He did it!"

With that,they both took off for the safety of their rooms.Raven looked down at the cowering changeling.Any confused feelings had completely disappeared in sight of her rage.This was how things were meant to be.

"Now you die."


Beast Boy combed the fish and glass out of his hair with his fingers.He knew he shouldn't have let the others talk him into it,but hey.He was just stupid like that.He finished and shook his head to clear his ears.

He should have known better than to get the game confiscated in the first place.But it wasn't his fault that he turned the volume up all the way,was it?Okay,so maybe it was.But Cyborg helped!But nooo.I'm too heavy to fit in the vents...Yeah well...He still could have helped get it back.And now Beast Boy was drenched in sea water,covered in glass, with an atomic wedgie up his ass.Plus he now had to fix the window.Crummy Raven.He hadn't even gotten a peek for his efforts...

He stopped himself there,and started hitting himself over the head repeatedly with a random lead pipe that he found.To clear his mind of dirty thoughts.He didn't know how the pipe got there,but sometimes it's just better not to know.His room was a scary place.

Cyborg walked past the open door.He quickly back-tracked,to see his best friend hitting himself over the head repeatedly with a pipe.

"You know dude,"he remarked,"If you had a brain I'd be worried.But,seeing as you don't,keep going."

Beast Boy stopped and scowled at him,attempting to look threatening.But it is kind of hard to look threatening with your underwear over your head.He gave up,failing completely.He was still angry though."How could you abandon me like that?Raven tossed me out the window."

Cyborg broke down and started laughing,rolling around on the floor.Beast Boy scowled again."Dude!It's so not funny!"

"Yes...it so...is,"Cyborg managed to blurt out between bursts of laughter."You...have...serious problems...with...your...love life!"

Beast Boy recoiled in shock."What dude! I-I-I so don't like Raven like that!"

Cyborg just kept laughing."You're...almost as...obvious...as...Robin, dude!"

Beast Boy was just confused."What about Robin?"

Cyborg just laughed harder at his clueless buddy.


Raven sat over her bed,chanting the familiar mantra.For some reason,the conflict earlier today had cleared her mind somewhat.She could now meditate,albeit to a lesser degree than usual.But it seemed like she'd only just gotten into a deep concentration when the alarm beeped.

She sighed inwardly as she got off the bed and slid open the door.She'd have to see Beast Boy again.For some reason,that didn't seem to bother her.


"Chaaa dudes.No-one defeats Adonis!"

Raven rolled her eyes.If she had a nickel for everytime she heard a supervillian say something along those lines,well---she'd be a very rich superhero.Flying at him,she used a burst of black energy to send a nearby car at Adonis.He leant under its weight,but simply bench-pressed it and sent it straight back to the source.Raven gasped as the car plowed into her,giving her a moment of unconciousness.

She fell from the sky,only to be caught by the villian.She struggled against his arms,but he merely pressed her to his chest and wrapped his arms around her tightly.He began to cut off her air.

"No escape this time,cutie.Grrrrrr! I've said it before,and I'll say it again:I like 'em fiesty!"

"Let me go."Her voice was dangerous despite her breathlessness as her eyes and hands glowed warningly black.

"Or what,gorg--"

His remark was cut short as a green beast plowed into him,making him drop Raven.Raven started to fall,but The Beast deftly caught her.He put her carefully on the ground before standing in front of her and growling threateningly at the recovering Adonis.Adonis only had time to rub his head in wonder before The Beast had pounced at him,quickly stripping his armour away like the first time Beast Boy faced him.

The black haired man quickly edged away from the dangerous green creature.Cyborg stopped him,securing handcuffs onto his skinny wrists.

The Beast growled once in acknowledgement of his victory.Starfire,Robin and Cyborg carefully stayed away from him as he turned back to a dazed Raven.He could be dangerous in this form if pushed.He walked over to Raven before letting his flesh ripple in the familiar morph.Beast Boy fell to his knees,then onto his face,his clothes torn around him.


"Thanks for before."

"How did you know it was me up here?"

Raven rolled her eyes and quit the pretence of meditating."Because no-one else thinks about a 'secret janitor' theory as they climb the stairs.And no-one else runs into the wall on the way up."

Beast Boy smiled that cheesy grin of his and rubbed his neck."It's dark,okay?"

Raven turned her head to face him."Beast Boy,the stairs go straight up.You turned left into the wall."

He rubbed his neck again,and laughed that weird laugh of his."Hehehehe...oops."

Looking a bit more serious,if it's possible for Beast Boy to look serious,he walked over to the edge of the roof and sat down,his legs dangling over the edge.Raven floated down to join him.He looked at her and smiled again.

"You're welcome,anyway."He looked up at the darkening sky."It's not like I can control it that well though.I just kinda saw you getting hurt and something snapped."

"Well,thanks.It was getting pretty hard to breathe."

Raven smiled slightly.Its effect was not lost on Beast Boy,however.He pointed a finger at her incredulously.

"You smiled!You smiled cause of me! I saw it!You can't deny it now! I am hilarious!"Beast Boy's face spread into a familiar grin.He knew it was just a matter of time.

Raven did something shocking next.Something that made her question her sanity,and made Beast Boy nearly fall off the roof.Something he would never forget.But unfortunately,she would.

"I can't deny this,either."

She leant forward,and gently pecked his cheek.

Both of their faces flushed.Beast Boy sat there unable to move.Raven,however,got up and made her way to the stairwell.

"Goodnight Beast Boy."

The door slammed shut.Beast Boy's mouth slowly spread into an especially goofy grin.He looked towards the fading horizon,and thought that he would never stop smiling again.

How wrong he was.
