Author's Note: Hello, peoples! Wow, I've actually managed to keep posting regularly... amazing! Any-who, enjoy! Fluffy chapter this time.
"I can't, Raven!" Beast Boy said, waving his hands out in front of him.
"You promised you'd help." Raven insisted.
"Well, I didn't know you had this in mind!"
"Please?" Raven gave him her own 'The Face', which felt stupid to her because she'd never begged anyone for anything before.
Beast Boy almost gave in, but caught himself before he did. She had called him into the living room around 10:30 at night. When he arrived Raven was sitting on the couch next to George.
Flashback
"Beast Boy, I need you to do me a favor."
"Ask away!" He did not know what he got himself into.
"I need you to morph into a platti-footed duck fly George to the ranch; I'll fly with you..." Raven trailed off as she tried to think up a decent ending.
Beast Boy opened his mouth to say yes before he thought about it. He abruptly stopped though, and closed his mouth. Then an uncomfortable silence took place.
End Flashback
"You can't just... expect me to change into a brand new animal and start acting like it!"
"Why not? You did it on Tameran."
"That was just lucky. I couldn't have stayed like that if I wanted to."
"Oh. How about this: tomorrow you can practice and then we can go when everyone is asleep."
"That sounds good. Thanks." Beast Boy said as he made his way over to the couch and hugged her with gratitude but let go immediately, bright red. "Sorry, I forgot about the touching thing."
"That's okay, I like you, remember?" Raven asked as she pulled him back into a hug.
Much to the dismay Cyborg, Raven never chased Beast Boy angrily through the Tower anymore. He had found it extremely funny. Raven and Beast Boy sat on the couch a few moments longer and then both returned to their rooms, George following Raven closely all the way.
The next morning...
Beast Boy and Raven called Bernard in the early morning. They found out all they could about a platti-footed duck and Bernard's location. They also found out that George's nick-name was Geo (Jee-oh). After doing so, they both retreated to Beast Boy's room. Before they could do this, though, they had to keep the other Titans from knowing what they were doing.
"Learningnewanimaldon'tbugmeorelse!" Beast Boy said in what seemed to be one long word.
He had rushed into the main room, ran in front of the couch that his 3 friends were sitting on, said what he had to, and ran out without stopping once. Raven then walked through the sliding doors of the living room and announced that she would be meditating and that no one had better bother her. Then she walked out and headed in the opposite direction to Beast Boy's room. No one really thought strangely of this. Last time Beast Boy had been learning a new animal, he had locked himself in his room and refused to come out till he had the animal down pat. They thought it was weird to get worked up about it but they didn't bother him. Thanks to Beast Boy, they all knew better than to bother Raven while she meditated.
Beast Boy's room...
"Do you think it worked?" Beast Boy asked.
"Of course. They hardly bother you anyway and they think I'm... creepy." Raven ended rather sadly.
"I was wrong to call you that." Beast Boy said quietly.
"Excuse me?" Raven said, looking up at him.
"I was wrong to call you creepy. You're not creepy or strange or weird. You're just... unique. In fact, you're the exact opposite of creepy. You are beautiful, and smart, funny, and when you want to you can be really sweet."
By the time beast Boy had finished Raven was beet red. "Where did you come up with that?"
"You're not alone, Raven. You are not the only one who feels isolated and alone sometimes. Even here in good old jump city, I get strange looks. 'Nobody's gonna like a green kid. They'll all hate me.' That's the way I used to think. But you showed me different.
Raven sat there for a minute, dumbfounded. She never thought of Beast Boy like that. He had always been happy and fun-loving. "Thank you."
"For what? I should be thanking you."
"No, Beast Boy you just showed me different."
