A/N: Yes…. I am alive…though…not really for very long, I suppose..…so okay, I started my freshmen year, and I know that's a lame excuse, but now as it's winter holidays, I will try to update more…..
…some how…
Chapter 6:
Robin felt dizzy. He knew he didn't just hear what Beastboy just said. (Or, at least, he really hoped that he didn't hear it). He rested the back of his hand on his forehead, and rested himself haphazardly against the wall.
"What?" Robin said meekly
That was all he could get out of his mouth, a weak, and small, little what? What he really wanted to do was scream, he wanted to yell at Beastboy for even daring to say what he just said, he really just wanted to grab Raven and tell Beastboy to leave her alone because she was his.
But, she wasn't. And Beastboy didn't know about Robin's secret passion for the dark and mysterious girl. So he said it again, the only word he could say:
"What?"
Beastboy looked at his captain; there was something wrong with Robin. He was acting… funny. He thought of all the possible things for why in the world his team leader, his captain, his friend, was acting this way. He thought of many, but there was just one thought that kept flashing through the back of his mind.
Robin liked Raven.
But that was rubbish, how could that be the answer. No. Beastboy said to himself. That's not it, he reasoned, he's just shocked that I like Raven, that's it…that's all. But that thought just seemed to haunt him while he stared at Robin.
"Robin, are you okay? You seem a little …shocked…"
"That's because I am" Robin said, laughing halfheartedly.
Don't show any emotions you idiot, you'll give everything away. Robin said, while gathering himself up. Look at him, he's suspicious, of course he's suspicious…the way I was acting...
"It was just a bit of a shock, that's all BB, don't worry about it…"
"Olrighty then Robin…"
"Well, I guess this has been awkward enough, I'll just …leave then." He said as he walked towards the door. He looked at his green team member, he observed him. He was short, gangly, a little cocky, a little corny, a little…oddly pigmented, to tell the truth…what was he worried about? He was the team leader, he was tall, handsome, and he was well built, not gangly, but not overly muscular. Compared to Robin, Beastboy was surely no match. But then, Robin thought as he looked at his friend, but then why am I so afraid?
He knew the answer though. He knew it well enough. Beastboy is not and will never be scared of what other people think about him, he could always just ask Raven out, no one would say anything about him. On the other hand, Robin could never…he would never, he did think too much on what others thought of him…it was shameful, but it was true. And Beastboy would be a better person to be with, just look what I'm doing, comparing my strengths with his weaknesses, what kind of friend am I? He slowly turned and left the room.
"Wait!" Beastboy called out, "wait, hold on, Robin!"
Robin turned around slowly:
"…Yes BB?"
"I… I wanted to ask you, if maybe you could…kind of, like…"
"Yes?" Robin said mildly impatient
"Could you…well, could you…could you maybe…help me?"
"Help you…help you with …what?"
"Help me with, um, getting Raven…I know, I know, it's a stupid idea…and you probably wouldn't do it…but I really, I have no clue what to do, and it kind of, it kind of hurts, man…please?"
No! Don't do it, don't do it, just turn around and walk away…well, maybe FIRST say no thanks…the niceties do matter and all…and it would be kind of rude just to walk away…NO just don't do it, don't help him get her, you need help getting her yourself!
"Sure BB, I'll try"
Dammit you moron, what's wrong with you!
