You Don't Have To Cry Alone ch2
Just as she was about to hit the rocks below, Beast Boy came to his senses and caught her. As they fell he turned into a pterodactyl and carried her fainted to the roof in his claws. As he looked down upon her his heart started to beat faster then it ever should. Though his form was an animal, his heart was human.
As raven lay on her bed she began to dream a dream that was so unfamiliar it was like a nightmare, and yet she found so much pleasure in it that the nightmare was like a dream. She both feared and loved what she saw. She saw herself being held in Beast Boys arms and was being comforted as she spilled her emotions out from her eyes. And as she cried she heard Beast Boy's whimsical voice sing" hush little baby, don't you cry, I am going to sing you a lullaby".
As her soul fell onto his shoulder she felt no anger
No pain
No spite
Nothing could ever take this moment away. And yet, she saw another version of herself pushing the changeling away. She found only hatred in this form. All she could see was her world broken asunder in this unforgettable moment.
Raven then awoke to find herself in her room. Her room was dark and full of otherworldly items that no normal person could ever hope to understand. She found her sheets were wet with sweat and she began to gather them up when she suddenly felt cold armor on her shoulder. She turned to find Dravin with his blood red eyes staring at her. His eyes didn't leave her until they resumed there normal color. "Why are you in my room and what happened, why can't I remember anything and why do I feel like this?" "So you took my advice after all Raven. You feel like this because you are afraid to let him in and you know it." He grabbed her by the arms and held his face a short distance from his own. "You do not want to end up like me, do you?" he shouted. It felt like the whole room shook. Artifacts broke under the power of his voice alone and he repeated his question." DO YOU" he shouted and the whole tower began to shake. Raven opened her mouth to speak but it was muffled by the rumbling. "What" he asked, "What did you say".
"NO" she shouted just as loud as he did. She felt her anger being forced to the surface. She felt the same power that defeated Dr.Light and the same power that defeated Malchior. Just as she was about to release her fury upon him, Dravin put his hand over her mouth and she was calm once again. He had absorbed her emotions and hid them inside himself. Raven knew what she almost did and gave Dravin a look that was sincere and apologizing. "It's all right, as long as I'm here you don't have to fear anything or anyone" said Dravin. With that he took her sheets and left her room.
Darkness covered her and she began to meditate. Her only form of serenity next to her herbal tea. After a while she was at peace. She found new sheets and wished to sleep without dreams of anyone. Especially dreams of the one who had saved her life and who Dravin said she loved. Dravin was never wrong and yet she denied it. She knew what this wrought but she didn't want to go through the pain of love again. She didn't want the same thing to happen to her. She wouldn't have his kiss become her scar. With that she slept, and with that she thought her fate was sealed. But green eyes watched her and made sure she was alright. Then those eyes left the girl to her sleep. Hoping to return to her soon, hoping to return more then just friends.
