(Ravens POV)
We each got changed in the different bathrooms.
I wore a blue bikini to look less like a goth.
BB, stepped out of the bathroom and sat on the chair next to me.
He has such a hot bodyཀ said Charming.
Hes in pretty good shape too.
Hes not that gorgeous or strong. Said Arrogance.
Beast Boy was in about average, but pretty darn good shape. He had about a four pack and pretty nice biceps and had evidently been pumping iron. He flexed his arms for some girl teenage preps that were around.
I got up and sat in the hot tub and relaxed.
(Beast Boys POV)
I got away from the girls and saw Raven in the hot tub. I walked over and got in.
AFinally escaped your fans? she joked.
AUh huh. I said
AI have a joke for you. She said
AOkay A
AWhy isnt Dracula popular?
I thought about it for a second.
AI give up.
She smiled then said, ABecause hes a pain in the neckཀ
We both laughed. Wait a minute, Raven was smiling, laughing and telling jokesཀ She must have been having an extremely good time.
Later I went up on the high dive.
I had been practicing my form and it was pretty good. I jumped once, twice and then leapt off the high dive while Raven watched. I was sort of hoping to impress Raven one way or another.
One time I looked down and saw her talking to three of the girl preps. I was surprised she was talking to them at all, actually she looked pretty happy. Then the girls left I quickly finished my dive and ran over to her.
AWatcha guys talkin about? I asked.
AYou.
AOh really. I said. AWhat did ya say?
AThey asked if you were a nice guy and I told them yes. She replied.
I thought I saw her blush for a second, but she quickly returned to normal. I was surprised she hadnt gotten in a fight with those girls.
(Ravens POV)
There he was starring me down with those big green eyes. He really had grown over the years, he was at least 58 and his skinny shape was more bulky and broader. I needed to get him out of my headཀ There was no possible way that I had the tinniest crush on him.
Have you gone locoཀ Said Lust.
Have you seen me lately and Love is going even crazier than I amཀ
I dont love himཀ I screamed in my mind.
I just like him as a friend.
Whatever. Said Bravery.
I will talk to you when I get back to the tower. I told them. In the meantime shut upཀ
(Beast Boys POV)
AHey, I brang some lunch with us. I said.
Uh oh I had just said brang instead of brought, thats bad grammar. I stood there waiting for her to tease or pester me about it. Instead she acted like nothing had happened.
AGood, Im hungry. She said.
AOkay Ill go get the food. I said.
I walked over to the locker rooms and got the food. She was so different, much nicer. Raven had only grown a couple inches on the outside, but on the inside she was a much more barable person.
Now that I think about it I used to be an extremely annoying person and still am every once in a while. Raven wasnt the only one that had changed, I was 58 and was working out at least once a week.
I brought back our lunch and we sat and ate and talked. After that we packed up and headed home. It had been a good way to get to know each other a little better. We went to the main room.
AThanks, I had fun. She said then floated to her room before I could say anything.
Maybe I should go talk to her. I thought. Should I ask her out?
I couldnt make up my mind. Finally I brought up the courage to go talk to her.
