(A/N) So, how're you doing? I just wanted to know. It's been strange having you around, but I like strange. It makes me feel comfortable. If you don't really like the whole strangeness thing, I'll change. I can change for you. No, wait! You don't have to go! It's me, isn't it? I always screw up things like this. I can't believe you're leaving. After I've done so much…I loved you. Doesn't that mean anything to you? Yeah? Well screw you too, butt hole! If I wanted abuse like this I wouldn't have run away from home! I suck? I SUCK! I'LL KILL YOU! I'll kill…OK, so I won't. I'm sorry baby…I didn't mean it. I can change…I'll do it for you…really…this time I will. I promise. What? No…I…I won't do that anymore. I already promised myself I'd never do that again. But why? Why do you need me to? It's so…normal. You know how much I hate normal. You do? You will! Oh, baby. I love you too.

The Annotated Raven – December 5th
--------------------------------------------------------
9:15 p.m.
What an absolutely pompous jerk! Aqualad showed up, late, to pick me up and the whole time we're driving (where'd he get a car anyway?) he's talking about how he's glad I accepted his date invitation because of how normal people just couldn't truly handle people like us. I didn't like the way that sounded, so I asked what he meant, and he went on to explain how such common people could never fully grasp what it's like being above the masses.
So that explains his aloof mood. He thinks of himself like some kind of king. I can see why Beast Boy got rubbed the wrong way by the guy when they met. He thought Beast Boy was beneath him too until he was proven wrong. I don't think he ever apologized for treating him like that. That would be beneath him too, I guess.
Instead of listening to him drone on and on about how superior us heroes are, I tuned him out while we checked out the aquarium. Turns out he only brought me there so he could show off his powers. He tried putting his arm around me a couple of times and after his second attempt I just told him to knock it off.
He acted indignant because of that…apparently ANY girl would be happy to be there with him, shouldn't I be too? Well that was the last straw. I told him just how superior he was acting, then told him to go join Trigon, and left.
Should I feel this good about having dumped somebody? I know that part of the reason it felt good was because of the look on his face when I phased back home, but I'm pretty sure the rest of it was because I dumped him instead of the reverse. Plus, we haven't really done much of anything together for there to be any kind of an attachment.
My date was a pig, my night out was ruined, and I'm smiling about the whole thing. Serves him right.

(A/N) Paint fumes…anyway; I just wanted people to know…nothing! I'll tell you nothing of upcoming chapters! No matter how you torture me! Go ahead, buy me sports cars, feed me cherry ice cream, and scratch my back in that hard to reach spot, you'll get nothing from me. But you're allowed to do those things all you want. And review…but only if you've finished all your vegetables.
