RELIEF
CHAPTER 2
Sweat filled bodies mingled within the sheet of his bed. As
he tried to focused on the two he found himself draw away from the image
by an all to familiar sent of cinnamon with pinch of mint. An all to familiar
scent that filled his mind and made him shiver with pleasure.
" ohhh ahhhhhh "
The moaning and the hands on his chest and face the clawing of
his back and the emotion charged dream would haunt him and make him wonder
why he dreamth like this and why after the dreams it left him drained and
tired more so than usual.
" Sleep now and rest. "
The voice repeated and he obeyed he could not deny it. He was
drawned to it and he nodded. Exhaustions filling his mind and body yet he still
saw the figure beside him.
" Rest replenish your strength. I still have need of you."
He could only nod as darkness claimed him once more. Once his
eyes closed and his breathed drowned out raven shivered and closed her eyes.
Slowly she walked towards the door and picked her outfit off the ground.
All the while un able to stop the shivering and the shaking.
" I-I'm hurting him ..."
She whispered to herself and knew that in more than one way she
was using him. While she had access to every thing about him she was
leaving him hollow she was usurping his strength and emotions for her own purpouse
" ...I...I'm sorry "
She let the tears fall and she banished off the room. Manipulating
his mind she made once again sure he would not remember any thing.
Tampering with his emotions assured her that he didn't feel any conection towards
her even tough she felt a conection all to real with him.
" What am I doing ....I'm hurting him using him ...I violated him
...To satisfy my petty needs. "
She slumped down on her bed as a wave of guilt washed over her.
She knew that sleep would not come to her easy and when it did it would be
filled with images she wished would have never been real and would fade
away.
Morning came and as she awoke she found herself refreshed and
once again calm and normal. Streching her lips she yawned and felt a wave
of relaxation hit her closing her eyes she smiled content and then froze
as the all to familiar scent of him filled her and images of night past
began to fill her mind.
Images of him lying beside her with his arms around her and she
with her arms around him. How his kisess alleviated and reduced her strain on
her heated blood. How his caressess cooled her down and comfort her. How
she had desired him and senses his desire for her.
She rushed towards the shower and tried to rid herself of his
scent that was on her. Shaking her head she shivered and felt sick once more
only this time it was in revulsion of what she had done. A disgust of her
actions. A guilt of how she had used him.
" R-Raven ...I..."
She frozen and pulled a towled around her rushing out of her
bathroom she saw the figure entering her room and she gasped in suprise.
" Robin what ?"
" H-help "
The night had been too much. Too many times she had drained him to
much to the point of him weak and helpless. Afraid, walking towards the
figure on the ground she fell to her knees and pulled his head to her lap.
" Ah God ..I'm sorry ..I'm so sorry. "
She cradled his body on her arms and cried as each heart beat made
her realize how weak she had left him. How his mind was a chaotic mess
thanks to her of how he was emotionally empty.
" Please forgive me. Please be ok. "
She pleaded with the unconcious teen. Her tears streaming down her
face she was to caught up in her own sorrow she did not notice the other
three teens standing on her door way staring at her in a towel and robin on
the ground.
Two hours later and the titan tower was serene calm and earily
silent. No laughter, no figthing, no nothing, every thing was solemn and quiet for
the rest of the day the titans focused on there fallen leader and on the
girl who refused to leave his side and would speak of nothing.
" Cyborg how is? "
" Both of them are ...I don't know BB I wish I knew. "
" Starfire is on her room she doesn't know how to. "
" BB I dont even know how to handle this. I mean we can't deny what
we saw ....I mean... "
" Don't do this Cyborg. Don't jump to conclusions. "
" Oh and what else am I supposed to do green man !?"
" She is not like that ok ....I know she is not. "
Cyborg raised and eye brow and did a double take. Beast Boy
sounded sad and at the same time hurt. The realization that the green teen had a
crush on Raven had not escape him, truthfully it was pretty obvious
" Oh man I didn't... "
" Just don't ok. "
The green teen left and cyborg stood infront of the door to the
infirmary thinking what had happened to the two people who were inside.
Something was not right but until Robin got back to his feet his
priority was to lead the team and help Robin. Any thing else would have to wait.
Inside the girl stood beside the bed of the teen who's
breathing was shallow and ragged at best. Reaching towards him she felt a wave of
thoughts rush towards her and pulled away. His mind was a mess and
thanks to her he was lost within his own mind.
" I know every thing about you ...your feelings your secrets your
past, your hopes your fears ....why do you hide from me now ?"
The voice echoes in the teen is mind and he recoilled away from
her. She was dangerouse she was getting close to his truth. To the one thing he
had been able to hide from her, to the one truth that was all that held him together.
" Tell me that one truth. "
His mind resisted and recoilled back. Hiding, fighting, and failing
her mind was strong her mind had been inside his she knew all there was to
know about him and he gave up. She needed to know and he could not refuse
her. He surrendered to her.
" Love ...for me ?"
He hid and pulled away but she wouldn't let him. She snagged him and
he saw her smile. She was glad because now she had him where she wanted him. He
was hers and she enjoyed it. She was delighted that such strong person
crumbled before her.
" Desire, love, and need you feel so strongly. "
He nodded unable to fight back the figure smiled and wrapped her
arms around him. Robin leaned against her and closed his eyes. As for the
figure she looked infront of her and meet the eyes of her antagonizer.
" He is mine now. "
" You used him, used me to get to him! "
" And now that we are together we will never be apart."
" I wont let you keep him, he means nothing to you. "
" But to us he is our mate !!"
The mental wave sent the other figure to the ground and raven
openned her eyes and pulled away from his touch. Looking around the room she
gasped and knew that she had never let go when she first touched him as the
monitors began to beep and blip in and out she looked at the door as
cyborg rushed towards him.
" What happened !?"
" I touched him. "
" What ?!"
" I touched him and was sent into a place within my mind were I
found the truth and what had happened to us. "
" Raven what in blazes are you? "
" It was all so simple I didn't.....see it coming ....I'm sorry I
must meditate. "
" Oh no tell me what the hell is going on! "
" If you wish Robin to return to you then let me meditate then I
will explain all. "
Cyborg nodded and let her go as he turned to the monitors she
noticed robin is brain waves were no more. The leader of the Titans was brain
dead his life was now being sustained by machines that were plugged into him.
Looking at the fading figure of raven cyborg hoped she would return soon.
Reaching her room she cried in anger and things around the room
began to float and explode. She didn't care she was angry. She was sad. She
didn't know what she felt. All that she knew was that she was manipulated and
even though she felt relief that she was not as responsible as she thought
she still felt angry.
Angry at the fact that she had wished for this. That she had desired
him since her entry into his mind. She had felt an attraction towards him, a
secret passion for her leader. She saw him as he truly was and for the first
time in a long time she felt as if she could relate to some one.
" I..Its my fault my desire for him awakened her. "
She closed her eyes and as the room was thrown into chaos. She
cried and cursed her lust.
