Last time:

"So what things did you have to do?" He asked changing the subject before she could.

"I had to see you. You remember how I said your friends rang? Well they told me to come see you."

"Oh yea." He chuckled. "Raven, you know that question?"

"Yea." 'Finally' she thought.

"Hmmm, I don't know how exactly I'm going to ask it. Rae, do you think you and me, would ever you know...Umm go out?"

"Wh-What? Beast boy, I'm not sure I heard you correctly. Did you... Ask... me... out?

"Heh, yea." He said scratching the back of his head. "Well, you don't have-"

"That would be nice Beast boy." She smiled still drawing in the dirt. "That is if you still want to?" She said she was so nervous; her voice had a pleasant feel to it though.

"Are you serious? You Raven?" He pretty much blurted out before he thought.

"Is it a bad thing?"

"No!...Err I mean no of course not." He quickly fixed his wording and tone of voice, which made Raven giggle. "You've been giggling a lot lately Miss Raven. Please, be careful you don't laugh to hard."

"Excuse me? Are you saying I'm incapable of keeping my emotions under check? When I've lived with them my whole life?" She said standing up and breaking a bit of the stick off and throwing it at Beast boy.

"Well maybe..." He joked. She scoffed and he mockingly did the same. "Don't you scoff at me woman." He said in a professional voice

"Don't mimic me then." Sitting back down next to Beast boy, she noticed it was getting dark.

"Don't you think we should get back?"

"Now why would you want to do that?"

"Well, I don't know. It's just late that's all."

"So you don't want to spend time with me then!" He laughed turning away from her. Catching onto his joke she played along with him.

"Well, darling Beast boy, it's not me... It's you. I'm sorry to end it this way." She said trying not to laugh.

"Just go then. I don't want to look at you now." He said waving his hand away.

"Oh, Beast boy! Please, don't do this! I'm ever so sorry!" She giggled.

"Laughing! Did you just laugh?" He turned around; Raven could see how hard it was for him to keep from laughing.

"No my dear. I was merely giggling at the tree." She said the first thing that popped into her head.

"Leave the tree out of this! It has nothing to do with the argument you and myself are having!"

"Oh Beast boy! Your so silly, you should have said 'the argument you and me are having.' Not 'the argument you and myself are having.' Please don't do it again."

That was it, he couldn't hold it in any longer. His eyes were so watery, and his face was really red. The laughter just flowed out of him, like a river. The site of him would make even the most upset person laugh. Or at least giggle. Which is what Raven did; she had a fit of giggles. This only made Beast boy laugh more.

After awhile she calmed down and so did Beast boy. "Do you feel better now?" She asked him.

"Yea, thanks Rae." He hugged her, and she put her arm on his back and patted it. "So, now I'm confused. Are we like, you know. Going out?"

"Ummm, I guess so." She blushed, and went to put her hood up, but couldn't because she wasn't wearing her uniform.

"Kinda don't have it Rae." He smiled.

"I know..." She trailed off and looked at the ground.

"You ok?" he scooted closer to her to see if she was alright.

"Yea I'm fine. Just a bit tired, that's all." She gave him a smile that was full of exhaustion.

"You wanna go back to yours or do you want to come back to mine?" He asked hoping it didn't come out wrong.

"Oh, so that's how it is now? Mine and yours... Hmmmm. That hurts Beast boy." She stood up, wobbled then sat back down.

"No, Raven... I'm sorry."

"You know that the Tower will always be home to you. If you even go to jail it will still be home." She said looking at him sadly.

"Please don't get upset Rae. I hate seeing you like that."

"I hate the fact you don't live with us anymore. Please, just come home."

"You really want me to come back don't ya?" He smiled.

"Yes."

Beast boy put his arm around her waist and she put her head on his shoulder. "Raven, I'm so sorry. But once I've cleared my head I promise you, that I might come back."

"That you might?"

"What? What more do you want?"

"Don't say it like that Beast boy. Look, I just wanted you to come home. Ok, but you could really careless. Every one wants you to come home. Beast boy, I'm going home ok. I'm sorry." And with that she got out of Beast boy's grip and then vanished.

She reappeared on the roof top of the Tower. She then collapsed onto the ground and looked up at the sky. "This is ridiculous."

"What is?" Robin said, Raven sat up quickly and saw that he was on the Towers edge.

"Beast boy." She said softly

"You two seemed to be getting alone back at the park. What happened?"

"He said that once he cleared his head he promised that he might come back, and I said 'that you might' and then he raised his voice and he just didn't sound like Beast boy. All I wanted was for him to come back." She said hugging her knees and crying softly into them.

"I know Raven. We all want him to come back. Come on. You and me will go and find him ok?" He said helping her up. And she nodded her head.

"Ok."

Beast boy sighed. "Damn it!" He yelled. "I can't believe I screwed it up with her! Again! Grrr!" He said punching the tree. Raven and Robin arrived just as he did so.

"Don't let him see us. Just see what he does." Robin said to Raven.

"Ok." She whispered.

"I can't believe I said that to her, and like that." He punched the tree again and again. Raven couldn't bare to look at him like that any more. She walked up behind him and cleared her throat. This made Beast boy jump. He quickly turned around to see Raven. "Raven!" He said hugging her. Smiling she hugged him back.

"I'm sorry Beast boy. I didn't mean to react like that."

"Rae, don't worry it was my fault." He saw Robin and nodded his head to say him. Robin walked over.

"You feeling any better Beast boy?" Beast boy and Raven let go of each other and smiled.

"Yea, I am. Now that Raven came back." She laughed. "Do you know?"

"Raven told me on the way." He sighed. "And yes it's ok. Raven asked. Ok well you two don't need me anymore do you?"

"Why don't you come back to my place?" Beast boy asked Robin.

"No, no. You guys go. It's ok." And with that Robin left the couple alone.

"Do we have to go now?" Raven asked.

"Well if you don't want to, we don't have to." So they sat down on the tree branch they previously were on. The song 'The art of American Football' by Funeral for a Friend entered her mind. She started to hum the tune and Beast boy listened. Once Raven came to her senses and realised she was humming she stopped immediately and blushed.

"I'm sorry." She looked down at the ground her cheeks a little red.

"What for?" He asked looking down at her.

"I'm sure you hate my music."

"Raven, I've never hated your music. It's just when you play it extremely loud it's hard to concentrate." He said then understanding how Raven felt.

"It is isn't it? I am sorry though, sometimes I don't realise how loud it gets." She laughed.

"What is your favourite band Rae?" He asked standing up and stretching.

"I honestly don't know. I really like A Cutthroat Kiss, but they don't have that many songs. My Chemical Romance are very good, but I don't like them as much as any other band I like. I have a lot of Funeral for a Friend merchandise because they were my favourite band. " She laughed. "But the truth is I like a lot of genres, hardcore, emo, punk, gothic metal I just can't decide. How 'bout you?"

"Whoa. You like your music. I don't care, as long as it's not R&B or dance or something like that." He sat down on the grass next to the root opposite to the one he was just on.

"What about hip-hop?"

"Yea, that too. Can't stand it, rappers and bouncy music." He patted the ground next to him. She laughed and walked over to where he was.

"Sit." He said pulling her down to sit.

"I didn't need your help."

"Why don't you sing another song Rae?" The moon was finally out and the sun had set. Raven sighed.

"I don't sing."

"Yes you do." There was a scoff from her and he laughed. "I'm serious, I've heard you sing. Rae come on you're a good singer."

"What ever." A song came into her head.

"Please Rae. You know you want to."

"But the music I know is too deep." The song was begging her to sing it.

"So, you can sing it in a higher pitch voice. I don't mind. I just want to hear you sing."

"Oh alright. The song is Dead in the Water by Hawthorne Heights." Beast boy tried to remember the song. "I haven't listened to the song at home; it's played at my café a lot."

"Oh ok."

"The medicine is blending in mixing the blood with oxygen." She stopped. "Do I have to sing?"

"Please, that was good. Come on Rae."

"I need this right now to figure myself out

Cutting through the ribbons of self doubt

I never thought you'd see me this way

You are the worst and I am to blame." A sigh escaped from her lips and then continued. "Close the door, lock it tight

Then I'll know you're safe tonight

Turn on a song that means the most

Believe I'm there and hold me close

She is in my bloodstream, tonight she's draining me

The room is filled with reds and blues

I follow as she leads into the darkness

Drying up my veins, she's a ghost, a silhouette

Calling out my name." She stopped and looked at Beast boy.

"Is that all you're going to sing for me?" His voice was soft and sad.

"Yes, I don't really know the rest... and I couldn't be bothered." She smiled. "Come on, I think we should get to your place before your friends start to worry."

They got up and started to walk through the park. It was dark but the moon light guided them along. When they were near the small pond that was in the centre of the park Beast boy slipped his hand into Raven's and looked down on her. Her cheeks flustered and she looked at the ground.

The city lights started to glow in the night sky and the cars and busy city noises were becoming louder and louder. Beast boy lead Raven to his new apartment type house. When they got to the door, Beast boy stopped Raven.

"Umm... I'm pretty sure the house is a mess. Can you give me a minute?" He asked sort of embarrassed.

"Beast boy, I've been in your room and number of times. Don't worry." She smiled.

"Now, are you going to let me in or are you going to make me freeze?"

"Well letting you in sounds tempting but I think I'm going to have to let you freeze." He laughed and opened the door. She opened her mouth to say something but Beast boy closed it and said "I was only joking Rae. Now come on in." He opened the door and to his amazement the place was actually clean. "Wow." He sighed.

"And you were worried it was going to be a mess." Her lips curled into a small smile. Beast boy's favourite, because he knew that it was his.
