Raven tossed and turned as she tried effortlessly to shun out the loud and pounding noise of knocking on her door. Finally, having the last straw, she tossed the covers and stomped towards the door. Slamming it open with all her rage, she glared intently at the person on the other side of the door, but then stopped and rubbed her eyes. "Beast Boy? What are you doing? Do you realize what time it is?" She asked so many questions but none of them were answered. Instead the green elf just smiled, swooped the mystic off her feet and took her to the living room. He set her down and put one finger over her mouth from saying another word, "Shhh…I brought you here to show you something. So keep quiet ok?" She nodded in return and waited for him to reveal whatever he wanted to show her. "TADA!" Beast Boy said with pride, holding a dark purple and black colored wrapped box tied up with an evergreen ribbon. Raven took the box in her hands and observed it closely. "Well, aren't you gonna open it?" Beast Boy asked eagerly. "O-okay…Why not?" Raven said, slowly opening the box by first unknotting the shining green ribbon.
As she got it all the way down to the gift, it made her dark purple eyes shine with awe. "Beast Boy…where did you find this book? This is so…" The goth started. "Rare…Well, You could say that a certain someone found one in an ancient library that only magics know of. Remember when we found that place when we found out that you were a portal to letting your scary dad to Earth on your birthday? Well, Cy and I were still investigating the remains of it while Robin and Star were doing crowd control. You were still at the tower because you needed rest. Cy and I discovered that there was an underground library full of scrolls and books about magic and about your world, Azarath. And I did hear you once wanting something from that library because you said that you left it here on Earth from your home planet. Oh, and there's something else that I got you." Beast Boy explained, pulling out a small, tan colored box. "Raven…will you…be my girlfriend and my future wife when we grow up?" He asked, kneeling down and opened the box, revealing a black diamond with red ribbon-like strips inside the jewel. The diamond was set on top of a silver band perfectly set inside. Raven, so stunned the words were taken out of her mouth. "I…I don't know what to say…" She finally choked. "Well, you can say yes…because I would like for you to go out on a date with me tonight, just the two of us…Please?" Beast Boy persuaded, taking the ring and slipping it on Raven's right ring finger. "Soon, that engagement ring will turn into a marriage one, if you accept it…because I love you Raven. I've never felt this before because with Terra, I thought there was something there, but there wasn't. To tell you the truth, you were the best thing that ever happened to me, whether you gave me positive or negative attention, it was still attention." Beast Boy took Raven's hands and put them in his own. Raven, even more surprised and speechless as ever, looked up and realized that something was…different. "You're…taller Beast Boy…How did you—" "Growth spurt I guess you could say Raven. I've also noticed that you've gotten, more beautiful than before…" Beast Boy replied, his smile looked charming to Raven.
In a matter of seconds, Raven began blushing a bright maroon, but then turned away so that he couldn't see her flushing. He took his hand and cupped it in her chin and had her face turn and look face to face with his. Their lips were just mere inches away from contact with each other. Their breathing became scarce and now both teens were blushing. "I know that it is hard to maintain your emotions Rae, but will you go out with me tonight?" Beast Boy asked, leaning in closer towards her flustered face. "Y-yes…I will—" She responded, but it wasn't finished. Instead Beast Boy took the initiative and just kissed her. He thought to himself, "There! I finally did it! I dunno what I'd do if I didn't do it now! I love Rae SO much that it's unbelievable!" With her breath taken away, all the young mistress of magic could think of was, "He kissed me! He kissed me! He kissed me! It took so long, but I thought that he didn't like someone as dark as I am…" As they finally let go and came up for breath, Raven was desperately gasping for air and Beast Boy was as well. "Beast…Boy…I…love…you…so…much. I didn't know that you loved me back. Yes, I will marry you and yes let's go out on a date right now. But, where?" Raven asked, still gasping from her first passionate kiss ever. The green teen smiled, swept his girl off her feet (bridal style) and headed towards her room. "I found this place near the pizza place but one corner away. But I won't tell you anymore because I'll spoil it." "Why?" Raven smiled, kissing her green elf on the tip of his nose. "You'll see…" He replied, kissing her on the forehead.
After Raven unbuttoned her black and purple lightning striped flannel pajamas, she brushed out her bed head and put on her regular crime-fighting outfit. Before she left her room, she looked at the ring that was glimmering on her finger. "Soon, that engagement ring will turn into a marriage one, if you accept it…because I love you Raven. I've never felt this before because with Terra, I thought there was something there, but there wasn't. To tell you the truth, you were the best thing that ever happened to me, whether you gave me positive or negative attention, it was still attention." His romantic words echoed and rung in her deep thoughts. "You don't know how long I've waited for you tell me how much you love me and wanted to be with you always…" She giggled to herself, kissed the top of the ring and walked out of her room.
Just as they were getting ready to open the door, a half awake half asleep Cyborg yawned and asked, "Where are you two going?" eye brows going up and down jokingly. "Uh…" Beast Boy and Raven choked, remembering the position they are currently in. He let go of her and she readjusted her cape and her dignity. Both began blushing nonstop and couldn't cover it up. "It's n-n-NOTHING! R-r-r-REALLY!" Beast Boy flailed his hands back and forth in the air. Raven just stood there, unable to speak and was quiet. She then took her hood and covered her face and transformed into a raven and phased through the ceiling and disappeared. "RAE! WAIT! DON'T GO!" Beast Boy yelled, and ran after his embarrassed girlfriend soon to be future wife. Cyborg, having a bewildered expression on his face, got out a foot long salami beef jerky sandwich and then asked himself, "Did BB just called Raven…Rae?"
"Rae! Please open up…it's okay." Beast Boy softly knocked, trying to get Raven to stop hiding. "Cyborg saw us, he saw me in your arms like we were married already…" She said, quietly enough for only him to hear. "No, no…It's okay Rae…it's okay…just please come out…" He coaxed. The door slid open and Raven jumped out and hugged him with all of her might. "Don't cry Rae…It's okay…" He whispered in her ear, rubbing her back and embracing her comfortably. She then sniffled, stopped crying and kissed him on his cheek, "I love you Beast Boy…" He smiled, "I love you too…Now let's go…" He took her hand and opened the window in her room. She levitated and laced her fingers in his, carrying him by flying away from the tower.
