(A/N: thanks to anyone who reviewed! If you haven't seen, and want to see, the movie Gothika, just a warning: I mention it in here, and it could spoil it.)

"But, why can the donkey talk?" Raven asked, staring in slight awe as the donkey named Donkey begged an old lady not to sell him.

"He just can," Beast Boy replied, his eyes never leaving the screen. "He's a fairy-tale creature."

"It still doesn't make any sense."

"Not everything has to make sense, Raven," Beast Boy said pointedly.

Raven stopped. She had forgotten that a long time ago. She had forgotten the fact that some things were better being left unknown. That was what added fun to life. Then again, she had forgotten about fun a long time ago, too.

Her thoughts were interrupted by Beast Boy's hysterical laughter. She glanced at the screen to see Donkey say, "Oh, that was really scary. And if you don't mind me saying, if that don't work your breath certainly will. You definitely need some ticktack or somethin' cause your breath stank!" Raven vaguely registered in her mind that a few years ago she would have laughed at that, almost as hard as Beast Boy.

"Come on, even you have to think that that's funny," Beast Boy glanced over at her, a sort of confused disbelief written on his face.

He's kind of cute when he's confused, Raven thought, then mentally slapped herself. If her powers weren't gone something would have broken. Instead, she merely replied, "It was mildly amusing."

Beast Boy rolled his eyes and turned back to the movie.

Damn it to hell and back, why did Raven have to be so freakin' beautiful? Her violet hair fell down in her face, and her dark purple eyes shone with an inner light, like the moon gleaming through a cloud-blanketed sky, only magnified. A strange darkness seemed to envelope her, making her tantalizing.

Stop thinking about it! Beast Boy commanded himself. He didn't know why he bothered, seeing as he never listened anyways. She's Raven, for heaven sakes!

And who was that, exactly? He had thought he had her figured out. Even after he and Cyborg had gone into her mind, he still entertained the thought that she was heartless. But then she had liked that guy Malchior, and he knew she couldn't be. And when he had turned into that monster with the chemicals, she had somehow known what he was thinking, that maybe he was just that monster. He scowled as he thought of what he had replied to her when she had called him a man: Beast Man?! Why did he always have to screw up when he was scared?

"Are you okay?" Raven asked, her words stopping his endless train of thoughts, and Beast Boy realized that he was still frowning heavily.

"Oh, yah," he said quickly, pasting on the fake smile that was his pride. Raven looked at him again, but said nothing more about it.

That was weird, Raven thought as she stared at the TV unseeingly. The movie was going to end soon, and she still didn't fee- she still wasn't tired. From the looks of it, Beast Boy wasn't tired either.

You are getting very, very sleepy, Raven thought sarcastically. She wanted to watch a horror movie, but couldn't while he was there. He'd probably have nightmares…

The movie was over. Personally, it had made Raven sick from all the romance. The trailers came on, and neither Beast Boy nor Raven moved. Dang, this was awkward. Beast Boy broke the silence by saying uncomfortably, "Is there anything you wanna' watch?"

"Nothing that wouldn't make you run out of the room screaming," Raven said condescendingly.

Beast boy scowled and leaned back in his seat on the couch. "I can watch whatever you watch," he said defensively.

"All right," Raven replied, and got up to look through her movies. "Texas Chainsaw Massacre"? Nah, too violent. I better go easy on him, she decided, and pulled out "Gothika". "You wanna watch this?"

"Fine," Beast Boy replied calmly.

Raven started the movie when it hit her; this is really weird. Here she was, in the middle of the night, watching movies with Beast Boy. Then again, it was kind of funny, too.

The previews had ended now, and the movie was starting. "Gothika" was her favorite movie, which was weird as it wasn't very scary. A few minutes had passed with neither of them saying anything, when at the line where the man said "…that would make me God," Beast Boy said, "He did it."

Raven looked at him. "Did what?"

"I don't know, but whatever happens, he did it."

Raven shook her head. He had probably seen this before.

The movie ended, and there hadn't been more than a few hushed yells from Beast Boy throughout the entire movie.

"I told you he did it!" Beast Boy said haughtily to Raven.

"I know, I already saw the movie!" Raven replied irritably.

"Oh. Yah.," Beast Boy responded blankly.

Raven looked at the clock. "Oh, shit!" she yelled. It was 4:09 AM.

Beast Boy looked at the clock, too. "We better at least pretend to go to sleep, or the Boy Wonder's going to kill us."

Raven snickered and nodded. "Night."

"Night," Beast Boy replied lightly. As he drifted back to his room, only one thought prevailing over the others: he had gotten Raven to laugh.
