Raven's POV:
Beast Boy was standing in front of me with a scared look on his face. I had a feeling I had one too after finding him in my room, standing over me like a zombie, at 5:05 IN THE MORNING! I sat up and pulled my covers over me, suddenly remembering what I was wearing.
"B-beast Boy! What are you doing in my room?! At," I looked at my clock again, even thought I would remember a time like 5:05! "5:05 AM!" First he opened his mouth to speak, but no words came out. He just stood there, shocked.
Ok. Back up. What was Beast Boy doing in my, my room at 5:05 in the morning? Did he do some thing to me? Something harmful? No, Beast Boy wouldn't do that to me. Right? Nobody who had his kind, thoughtful, gentle, considerate loving self would do something to me that was harmful. Nobody like Beast Boy could do something like that to me. Right? Ok. Snap back into reality.
Beast Boy was shaking, backing up towards the door.
"I-I w-was-s j-just g-going t-to ap-polog-gize t-to y-you for-r y-yest-terday," he said with a look of horror on his face, mixing with the fear.
" Didn't w-we have this d-discussion b-before?!"
"Y-you didn't say any thing that time."
"Ok! I f-forgive you! N-now can you t-turn around so I can g-get dressed?"
He turned around and kept apologizing as he went.
"I'm really sorry. I thought you were awake!"
I quickly changed into my regular clothes, turning my back to him. Throwing my nightgown on the side, I put on my cape, not bothering to pull my hood over my head. I turned around and saw him looking at me over his shoulder as he was advancing towards the door. He quickly looked forwards again, probably hoping that I didn't see that. Just as he was about to exit, I said,
"Beast Boy, you can come back now. I'm finished."
"C-come back?"
"Only if you want to. Just for a while."
He turned around and sat down next to me on the bed. He played with his fingers and looked down, obviously waiting for something to happen or someone to speak. We sat in an eerie silence for a while, not one of us saying anything.
"Ok. I'd better go now." He got up and left, his face grim.
Ok. Review what just happened. Beast Boy. In my room. At 5:10 in the morning. Can you say FREAKY?! WHAT was he doing? Can you imagine? He usually wakes up at 10:30 in the morning! He must have had some other reason to come here at 5:10 IN THE MORNING than apologizing… Or some other reason to be here with me? So confusing. I flopped back down on my bed, waiting for daybreak. I soon, fell asleep, dreaming about Beast Boy.
He knocked at my door and came in.
"Beast Boy. How many times do I have to tell you not-" Before I could finish my sentence, my lips and his were locked onto each other and we were kissing. I pushed him away.
"Beast Boy! What are you doing?! Are you out of your mind?!" He pulled me back in, kissing me again.
"Do you mind?"
"No, but-"
"Then kiss me again."
I woke up, sweating and horrified. The dream had been so real, so- nice. Could it be that I loved him? Duh, you knew that, I scolded myself. In the dream I had said that I didn't mind him kissing me. Did I mean that? Oh, I don't know! Did I? Should I?
I looked at my clock for the time and realized that it had been longer than I thought. It was now 6:10 and time to get breakfast or some tea to meditate.
I got up, realizing that I was already dressed. I went to the kitchen, seeing Cyborg and Beast Boy playing videogames. I smiled at him inside. (A/N: That's BB she's talking about)
Passing them, I entered the kitchen and prepared some tea. Once it was ready, I poured the water into a mug and put in the teabag. I blew on it, hoping to cool it down. (A/N: Yeah right.) I floated back to my room, looking back at Beast Boy as I did so. As I put my tea down, I kept thinking about Beast Boy and the dream I had about him. Not now, I ordered myself as I crossed my legs and began to meditate. Not now. But a little corner in my mind did not stop thinking about him, the one who made me smile.
An hour later, I woke from my trance, opening my eyes to the sound of Beast Boy jumping up and doing a victory dance in front of Cyborg, who was sitting on the couch yelling that he wanted a rematch.
"Booyah! In your metal face!" he cried for the millionth time. I sighed and got up. Sitting down on my bed, I took my tea and sipped it. I unleashed the thought of Beast Boy into my mind, not even realizing that I was falling backwards in the act of thinking of how cute he was. I hit the mattress placed on my bed, stupidly not thinking about the BURNING HOT TEA IN MY HAND! I yelled in surprise as the hot liquid splashed all over me. I heard something drop as running footsteps came to my door. I knew it was Beast Boy. He came in without even knocking and accidentally plowed straight into me.
"Ow!" I cried, as he hit me.
"Oh, I'm so sorry! It's just I heard you yell and I thought that you were hurt or in trouble or something. I'm so sorry!" He got up and held out his hand. I took it, and he helped me up with ease. His other hand found its way to my chin and rubbed softly against it.
"Your skin is so soft…" he whispered.
"Thanks for coming, but I'm fine. I just spilled my tea on myself," I said as I turned around, leaving his hand floating in space. "I appreciate your concern." I left for the kitchen, holding the mug that was now empty. I brushed against him briefly, sending a warm tingle up my spine. Leaving Beast Boy to stare open mouthed after me, I went out the doorway and into the hall, soon leading to the kitchen. I dumped the empty glass into the sink and washed my hands.
When I got back to my room, Beast Boy was already gone. I closed my door and sat down. After a quick shower, I looked at my clock. The day went by so quick. It was now 7:45 AM. I looked through my bookshelf and found the book I wanted. It was called, 'Wild Magic The Immortals' by Tamora Pierce about a girl named Diane who can talk to animals and can sense danger. Yes, it was old, but it was fascinating despite the old English. I blew the dust off the book and sat on my bed, flipping pages constantly, deeply absorbed in the book. Hours passed, and the night became clear. The full moon rose, and stars twinkled brightly. The moonlight led the way through fighting magical creatures such as Stormwings and spidrens to meditating in the barn. Though it was peaceful, I felt someone was watching me. I glanced at my door, waiting to see if anyone was there. I heard a tiny creak, but I ignored this and kept reading.
Silence filled the air around me, blocking most sound that came near to disturb my reading. I was now sitting near the open window above my bed where the moonlight allowed me to read peacefully. Then sound erupted, making me look up and put a bookmark in it. I left for the living room where everyone was covering their ears while Beast Boy was trying to get closer to the blaring TV to turn the volume down. Everyone was screaming at one another. Or Beast Boy. Besides himself.
"BEAST BOY IF YOU COULD TURN THE VOLUME DOWN A LITTLE BIT MORE THAT WOULD BE VERY NICE!" said Starfire in a rather loud voice.
"WHY DID YOU TURN IT SO LOUD, BEAST BOY?!" shouted Robin.
"BEAST BOY I'LL KILL YOU!" yelled Cyborg.
"I'M TRYING TO TURN IT DOWN!" Beast Boy screamed. I raised a hand and the volume decreased by what seemed like a thousand. I calmly floated over and received thanks from everyone. Everyone but Beast Boy who turned red and walked to his room. (Raven's POV stops)
Beast Boy's POV:
Oh joy. Raven. Did she have to come and rescue me?! I look like an idiot to her now! And to top it off, I'm always thinking about this morning whenever I see her. I turn red and walk away. I can't look at her when she's looking back at me! Am I ever going to get over it?
Flashback:
"I-I w-was j-just g-going t-to ap-polog-gize t-to y-you for y-yest-terday!"
"Didn't w-we have this d-discussion b-before?"
"Y-you didn't say anything before!"
"Ok! I f-forgive you! N-now can y-you t-turn around so I can g-get dressed?
"I'm really sorry! I thought you were awake!"
Then…
"Beast Boy, you can come back now. I'm finished."
"C-come back?"
"Only if you want to. Just for a while."
End flashback
What was I thinking?! 5:05 in the morning! Oh but before she woke up it was so peaceful and looked so serene. Maybe I'll go back tomorrow. WHAT?! Beast Boy, ARE YOU CRAZY?! (A/N: actually in a way he is. Thanks!)
Oh well. I'll choose the wise decision later. It's time to watch a movie!
I traveled halfway down the hall, searching for Raven. Good. She wasn't th-
"AAAAHHHHHH!!"
"AAAAHHHHHH!!"
I crashed into Raven, who was calmly trotting back to her room, probably finishing that book of hers. Eeep! He-he! What book? I don't know any book! He-he! Fine, I admit I was watching her, but only for a second. Okay, more than a second. But I was only getting my- my- my – oh forget it. I wanted to see what Raven was doing, so I said I had to go check something and I went and watched her for… well…maybe for an hour… More like spied… CURRENT SITUATION, BEAST BOY!
"Oh I'm so sorry. I didn't see you there!"
"I bet you didn't," she grumbled. "You scared me half to death."
She journeyed on to her room, and seconds later I heard the familiar sound of Raven's door slamming echoing throughout the tower. She's probably going to read that book until forever, I thought. Oh great. Just what I need. Another three hours of thinking about his morning. My head keeps repeating this morning over and over! Oh well… I'll go watch that movie with the others…
After the movie, I was GOING to play videogames with Cyborg, but Robin saying to go to bed. It was now 9:30 PM and time to go to bed. I wonder if Raven is still reading that book, I thought. Oh well. Maybe she is. Why would I care?
I went back to my room and shut the door. I thought about Raven and soon grew sleepy. I lay down on my bed and closed my eyes. Now everything seemed distant…Go to sleep… You want it… a little voice in my head said. So I slept.
When I woke up, the sky was gray out side my window. Another foggy and cold morning, I thought. Not bothering to look at my clock, I set off for Raven's room.
See, during some part of the movie last night, I totally just blacked out, sort of. My mind let loose some thoughts about Raven and soon the thoughts swirled around every crevice in my head. I'll go back tomorrow morning to her room to just observe her. WHAT?! Well she was very pretty… Fine… I'll go back tomorrow, I thought. What can I say? I was stupid and sleepy. What? That's a good defense if you ask me. But it wasn't to Raven.
A/N: Ah, cliffhanger. I love doing that, especially since I know what's happening next! Sorry, but the THRILL! Oh, I'll update soon, don't worry. Oh! And I'm sorry about the really long time before I updated Chapter 3. I decided, No! I'll do that in the next chapter. So I had to save it 4 times, delete the first half of the first one and blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. Ehhhh… so exhausting. Whew… Well, hope you enjoyed it! Review and tell me what you think is soooo good about it! Or what's wrong with it. Always open for suggestions! Just REVIEW and once again thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, and thank you, for the reviews you've already sent me!
