A/N: WOW! I got alot of positive feedback on my first two chapters. Thank you everyone! You have no idea how much you made my day. I recieved some great ideas that I am going to use. There were no thoughts, however, on putting the boys in a band. I believe it might give an outlet for BB to tell Raven how he feels. But I would like to know what you all think about that. In my last chapter I used one of my favorite songs Iris by the Goo Goo Dolls. If you have any song suggestions please feel free to contact me asap. Thank you much. This chapter might include Collide by Howie Day. Laters, Devi.

Disclamer: I don't own the Teen Titans. Or I wouldn't be writing on here now would I!

Chapter 3

Collide

"I've got to tell her how I feel. But how? I could just come right out and say it. But that would worsen my chances. I could go to the guys for help. No they would only mock me." Beast Boy was worried. He had no idea of how to tell Raven that he had fallen for her.

What can I do? It's not like she would feel the same anyway. Sitting down on his bed again, BB ran a hand through his dark green hair. What to do... What to do...

He needed to relax. Beast Boy grabbed his electric guitar, a notepad, and a pencil; he ran out of his room up the stairs to the roof.

Raven

Raven tossed in her sleep. Her dreams had been bothering her lately. They weren't the usual nightmare of her future, father, and what she is destined to do. No for once, it was different. Raven was sound asleep, having a very new kind of dream.

Raven was standing alone in Titan Tower. Everything was on fire. Smoke filled her lungs with every breath, suffcating her. Sounds of a struggle suddenly reached Raven's ears. Her eyes searched for the source of the noise. A young boy was fighting all these monsters. And by the looks of it he was losing. "BEAST BOY!" Suddenly all the monsters disappeared. Beast Boy fell to the ground in a quick motion. Rae ran to his side. "Beast Boy! Please wake up!"

She gently lifted his head and placed it into the crook of her arm. "Please Beast Boy you can't leave me! We need you!" Blood gushed from his mouth. But he managed to say something that was barely audible. "Raven, I love you." Beast Boy's eyes slowly closed, and he became even more limp in Raven's arms. A single tear fell down her delicate cheek and landed on his forehead. " Please. Wake up Beast Boy."

All the air came out in one last breath, as Beast Boy died in Raven's arms. Hoping for a chance for him to live, Rae shook him gently. "Come on BB. I know you're still here. Please wake up!" When he made no motions, Raven buried her face in his soft hair and began to cry.

A rough voice was heard from behind, the voice that always haunted her dreams. The voice that called for her in the darkness of her mind. Slade.

"The skies will burn. Flesh will become stone. The sun will set on your world never to rise again." Slade stepped out from the shadows. "What you have conceled you will become."

Raven stood, eyes still wet with tears, and prepared herself for the impending battle. "Tears? Is it possible that the demon child felt something for this waste of skin? Love prehaps?" His voice was cocky.

"HE WAS MY FRIEND! YOU ATTACK ME, YOU ATTACK MY FRIENDS! YOU DON'T DESERVE TO LIVE YOU SORRY BASTARD!" Raven didn't care that she was quickly losing control of her powers. All she knew that one of her only friends had just died by Slade's hand.

Raven's eyes grew red and she began to hit Slade with everything she had. But the blows just went right through him. He began walking closer. "Is that all you have Raven? Tut tut. I thought the daughter of the most power demon in the world could do better."

As Slade reached the mysterious empath, he grabbed her throat and began to choke her.

" Good bye Raven. Tell your friends I say hello." He laughed menicingly.

Raven woke with a start.

Meanwhile

Beast Boy plucked away at his guitar. The bright sunlight reflected off of the black paint. He was too busy concentrating on the lyrics that flew onto the paper before him to hear footsteps.

"Uh BB what are you doing man?" Cy walked up behind the now startled titan.

Beast Boy recovered quickly, hiding the paper. " Uh just working on a new tune." Cyborg figured the green titan was hiding something.

"Really? Well let's hear it then." Cyborg sat down next to BB and waited. "Uh it's not done yet."

Cy smiled. "Ok. Then what's it about?" He already had a good idea but for some sick and twisted reason, Cy wanted to hear it from his best friend.

"Uh its about this...guy. And he's explaining to this girl... that he really cares about her. More than she knows."

Cyborg's smile widened. "Then let's hear what you've got so far."

Beast Boy picked up his guitar and started playing. A sweet melody filled the air. Then BB started singing his lyrics:

The dawn is breaking,

a light shinin' through.

you're barely waking,

and I'm tangled up in you.

Yeah.

Well I'm open,

you're closed.

Where I follow

you'll go.

I worry I won't see your face,

light up again.

Even the best fall down sometime,

even the wrong words seem to rhyme.

Outta the doubt that fills my mind,

I somehow find you and I collide.

Beast Boy let the last note fade as his gaze fell on his best friend.Cyborg just kinda sat there, not sure what to think or say except:

"Wow."

For some strange reason, the green changeling became nervous. " I I told you it wasn't that great. It's not even done, I might just toss this one.." Cy cut him off.

"NO WAY MAN! That's awesome! I just never knew you could write like that. Or that you really felt that way about Rav..." Beast Boy clamped a hand over the half robot's mouth.

"Not a word Cy, I swear I will dismember you!" yelling at his friend didn't make BB feel any better. Was it true? Did he really like Raven? The one who always made fun of him and called him stupid. No way! There was no way he could like someone like that. But he didn't just like her.

"I think I love her Cy." He took his hand of the other's mouth. Putting a reasuring hand on BB's shoulder, Cyborg convinced him to go on with the song. "Who knows, you've got your guitar, I've got my drums, and Rob has a bass guitar and a keyboard. We might just want to put that to some better beats." His smile comforted Beast Boy.

"Thanks man." Beast Boy grabbed his stuff and walked back down into the tower with his friend.

A/N: OKAY! Chapter 3 is finished! Man that took a huge chunk out of my day! Please read and review asap. Thanks again everyone. In the next chapter I think I'll have Raven walk into Nevermore and be followed by BB. We'll just have to see how he reacts to all of Raven's emotions again. Luv ya ppl! Laters, devi
