a/n: still sadly don't own anything Teen Titans...do I really have to do this before every chapter? Okay can we just say that from now on it shall be common knowledge that I don't and won't own anything from Teen Titans and I will not try to make any money off of this...okay, now that that is done; here are the shout outs to the people who reviewed! See? If you review, then you get recognized!
Moving Mountains: Thank you so much for reading my fic, it's my first TT one; and I'm starting to really enjoy writing it.
Agent of the Divine One: Well Beast Boy isn't really stupid so I don't think that he can do something really bad, plus there will be no lemons or anything like that so if that is what you were referring to, yeah there will be none of that.
Shade Spitfire: Yeah I don't know, I've read so many where they have Beast Boy smelling like a wet dog and I just think that's kinda gross and I really don't see how, even if you are in love, you could ever find that attractive or in any way pleasant. I used Catnip because I have cats and I really like the smell of it. Also I wanted to tie in his animal nature, but I didn't want it to be something like wet dog!
BlackbirdXx: Thank you so much for reading, I'm glad to hear that people are liking it so far.
ChocolateSoGOOD: I find it really hard to do a romance when you only see one person's point of view, because often times I really want to put something in from the other person's mind and it just doesn't fit with how I'm writing the story.

Chapter Three
I had wrapped my arms around her while she was healing me to keep her from falling backwards. I could tell it was taking a lot out of her. She finally finished, but I didn't let go. She didn't move away either, so I pulled her a little closer. No sooner had I done that that the alarm went off. I was afraid to look down. What if the only reason she was letting me hold her was because she had passed out when she was healing me and I never noticed.
"Raven, are you okay? Does it hurt too bad? If it does I'll just tell Robin that you can't come because you have to meditate or something." I asked cautiously.
"No, I'm fine." She said a little harshly. Well at least she wasn't passed out. She pushed herself away from me and swung her legs off of the table. I won't say that I wasn't disappointed. She was about to jump down, when I saw her hesitate. I could tell she was waiting for me to leave so she could get down as best she could. I wasn't going to leave her to hurt herself trying to get off a table.
She must have really been hurting if she wasn't just flying out of here. I didn't even ask, I just got off the table and scooped her up into my arms. She was a lot lighter than I would have thought. I heard her gasp, but I didn't know if it was because I had picked her up or if I had jostled her leg. I was hoping it was the former.
SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
I felt Beast Boy's arms encircle my back and usually I would slap his hands away, but right now I needed those arms more than I would let myself believe. I finished healing him, but I couldn't move I was in so much pain. When I had healed cracked and even broken ribs, it had never really been that big of a deal I had healed them and had been a little sore for awhile no big deal. With a broken leg added to it, though, I thought I was going to faint. I almost did too.
I felt him pull me a little closer and my heart started to go double time. Then the alarm went off and I could feel Beast Boy sag in disappointment. I have to admit it boosted my self esteem to know that Beast Boy was disappointed that he couldn't hold me for long.
"Raven, are you okay? Does it hurt too bad? If it does I'll just tell Robin that you can't come because you have to meditate or something." I could tell that he was treading carefully. For some reason it made me a little angry.
"No, I'm fine" I replied a little harsher than necessary. I pushed him away from me and instantly regretted it. I wanted the warmth that his body had lent mine. I wasn't going to let him know that, though, so I just swung my feet off of the table and waited for him to leave. He didn't though, I thought when he got off the table that he was going to leave, but instead he picked me up. I gasped from the unexpectedness of it all. I never let anyone touch me and here is Beast Boy picking me up! I didn't squirm or anything, though. Not that I didn't want to, I just didn't have the strength.
"Wow, you must be really exhausted if you haven't thrown me out a window by now." I could tell that he was trying to lighten the mood.
"There's no way that you are going to go fighting. I'll put you in your room and tell Robin that you were too tired to be of any use." It was weird to have Beast Boy be serious. I don't think that I liked it very much. I wanted to prove to him that I was not weak and that I could fight so I levitated myself out of his arms and touched down on the floor.
"I'm fine Beast Boy, I can fight. Go and tell the others that I'll be there in a few." I could tell that he didn't want to leave me, but I insisted. Finally he left and I slowly made my way to the T-car.
SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
I didn't want to let her go and fight, but it's not like I really had a choice or anything, right? I didn't have any sort of claim on her; I wasn't her boyfriend, and I certainly wasn't her best friend. If I had just insisted she never went, though, what happened next would have never happened.
We were in the middle of it all with Red X and Cinderblock. I couldn't figure out why Red X was with Cinderblock since Red X is kind of a loner, but then Robin gave us all a very good reason; Slade. We didn't know what his plan was and we still don't, but it didn't really matter because we got our butts handed to us.
Parts of the team would come to Raven all bloodied and bruised and each time I wanted to tell her not to heal them, but she continued to do it. She would pull them into an alleyway while I fought off whoever she had been fighting previously; I could at least protect her in that way. Each time she came out of that alleyway, she looked worse and worse.
Amazingly Robin hadn't come to her at all since the beginning of the fight. Usually him fighting Red X got him pretty beat up, but he must have been practicing extra hard since the last time. I hadn't been injured either, but I wasn't planning on being in that position again. Finally Red X got Robin pretty bad and Star carried him over to Raven.
He looked horrible, his face was a mess, and I saw a broken wrist and some pretty deep gashes across his legs. This was going to be the worst for Raven, but Robin was in such bad shape that I didn't even look at her. I grabbed him from Star and brought him into the alley myself. Raven followed me.
"You aren't even going to complain about me healing him?" She asked.
"Raven look at him! He is in the worst shape I've ever seen him! If you don't heal him now, he could die." I whispered to her. I could tell that she was in a lot of pain, but Robin's life was in danger. We needed our leader and I could save him, there was no way that I was going to let him die because I might like Raven a little more than friend wise.
"Okay, but don't watch, it could be bad." She replied. I said fine and turned around, but turned back around when I was sure that she was healing him. I watched as her blue healing aura enveloped Robin's body. That light didn't hide what was happening to her though. I could see that Robin's wounds were transforming to her body. At first it was just bruises, and then a cut formed above her eye, and the gashes that were all over Robin's legs were now on hers.
I couldn't keep myself from gasping out loud. This hadn't happened as far as I knew when she usually healed. She didn't stop, though, she just kept on healing. I could see that she was starting to bleed badly.
"Raven, stop! He's healed enough now! Stop before you hurt yourself!" That was the stupidest thing I could have said, she had been hurting herself for us since she had met us.
SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
When Beast Boy brought Robin to me, I didn't know what to do. I knew that I was already at my limit, but what he said next, that he could die if I didn't heal him, then it didn't matter, at that point I had to save him. I was scared to though, I was already in a lot of pain. That was why I didn't fight as much as I usually do. Instead I hid in an alley while everyone else was getting their butt's kicked.
The best I could do was snap at Beast Boy, and I felt bad for doing it immediately afterwards.
"You aren't even going to complain about me healing him?" I could see the pain in his eyes, and it tore me to pieces.
"Raven look at him! He's in the worst shape I've ever seen him! If you don't heal him now, he could die." I could tell that Beast Boy was doing his best to be brave. I could feel the emotions coming off of him in waves. It was especially strong at the moment; loyalty, fear, and an emotion that I couldn't read...indecision?
"Okay, but don't watch, it could be bad." Bad was an understatement. I knew that it could end very badly if I didn't do this exactly right. I could kill myself from healing him, or worse, kill him. I didn't care, though I knew that our team would die without a leader, we needed him alive, and I was the only person that could make that happen.
I started to heal him and immediately I could feel the effects of my healing. I could feel the bruises forming and my flesh being torn open. This had never happened before and I was scared, but at this point I couldn't stop. It wasn't that I couldn't stop because he wasn't healed yet, I couldn't stop even if I wanted to. Then I heard Beast Boy's voice.
"Raven, stop!He's healed enough now! Stop before you hurt yourself!" That was ironic, but scary too. I could hear the fear in his voice, but I smiled inside because I had been hurting myself for them since I met them.
