I apologize for keeping you waiting. Without further ado, I give you Chapter 3.
Raven walked back into her room. She noticed the two letters on her floor next to the doorway. 'Hmm, whom could those be from?' she thought sarcastically. She picked them up, noticing one was heavier than the others she had already received.
She opened the lighter one first. It was Beast boys. She had difficulty reading one sentence, "You were drinking tea and watching a bird out the window." 'Why does he care if he spells something wrong in a letter to me?' Curious questioned. 'Why do you care if he cares?' asked Sneaky with a smirk.
'It just shows he's an imbecile.' Rude said dismissively. 'He is not an imbecile! He just wants to make sure he says the right thing to us.' Love shouted at Rude.
"Oh no, this isn't going to give me a head ache." the Raven standing in her room said in a whisper. 'Hush' she mentally yelled, 'we are not going to do this every time we get a letter from him.' she said with such finality that even Love did not try to sway her.
She picked up the other letter, presumably from Starfire. She could hear a rattling sound as she lifted the letter from its place on the bed next to her. When she opened the envelope a small pile of beans were dumped on her lap.
Friend Raven,
This is the place that we are to, spill the beans?
At this point Raven actually laughed. Honestly laughed, hard enough to make her stop and take a breath. It was when she did this that she noticed nothing was broken.
She stopped to admire that fact. Happiness had finally taken over long enough to make her laugh and nothing had exploded, or shattered, or fallen. Nothing had even moved.
With a smile on her face she returned to Starfire's letter.
Unfortunately do not have many things to discuss, except the question of whether or not you would accompany me to the mall later? Hope to hear back from you soon.
Your Friend,
Starfire
'Well if I'm in this good a mood from just her letter, maybe an afternoon at the mall wouldn't kill me.' She thought to her self, still grinning. Raven got off her bed and walked over to her desk to write a reply to her friend. It was then that she saw the person standing next to her.
She actually had to stop and study the person; they wore clothes like hers, had short violet hair like hers, and even had the same pieces of paper in their hands. But this couldn't be her. This person's face was nothing like the one she had seen in the mirror every day before now.
There was tooth showing, ear to ear, truly happy smile on this person's face, not a small grin. She looked almost-dare she think it-beautiful.
At that thought she grinned even more and continued on her way to her desk. 'Hmm, all right I'll go to the mall with Star. Maybe I should explain the phrase of "spilling the beans".' Raven wrote:
Starfire,
I think I would enjoy going to the mall with you. You must have misunderstood Beast Boy when he said we could "spill the beans" in our letters. I can explain it to you on our trip. Let me know when you would like to go.
Raven
'There, that'll due.' She thought. Now for B.B., Beast Boy, B.B. is only for Cyborg. We can't let this happiness thing get out of control. She thought for a moment. He hadn't asked any questions, hadn't said any thing she could comment on really. What could she write?
Beast Boy,
I am pleased that you made it back to your room, did you, by chance, fall again? Congratulations on hitting Cyborg. He is such a small target, after all. Well, I am going with Starfire to the mall later to day.
Raven
She sealed the letters and walked down the hallway again and delivered her responses. Before she had made it even 20 feet away Starfire had flown out of her room with an envelope in hand. She zoomed down the hallway and slipped it under Raven's door, with a smile on her face all the way.
Raven kept going and when she got to the letter inside the threshold she found that the envelope had not even been sealed. She pulled out the letter, along with a few beans. The only thing the letter said was:
Friend Raven,
Now.
Your Friend,
Starfire
Raven smiled again, and upon opening her door found Starfire floating just outside. However, she missed the green changeling standing numbplused at the sight of her smile.
Again, sorry 'bout your wait. I was a little busy still, but I'm actually thinking a schedule (school) will help with my writing. Not that I'm happy about it. Well I hope you enjoyed this, you can let me know by reviewing! My review button was telling me just the other day how lonely he was getting. So review, review, review! Love ya' mimazz
