After sufficient meditation, Raven picked up her bag and made her way down the stairs. The sight before her made her glad she had meditated before coming down. Terra was engaged in a fierce lip-lock with Beast Boy. Raven made for the door as quickly and quietly as possible, but the soft whoosh of the doors gave her away. "Raven!' Beast Boy yelled, almost desperately. She stopped dead in her tracks, and turned around slowly.
"Yes Beast Boy?" she tried to sound annoyed, but it came out a bit more hurt than she intended.
"Have you had lunch yet? I've been wanting to try this new recipe, and I thought you might like to…try…it…" the poor boy trailed off, scratching nervously at the back of his head.
"Sure, I'll be back as soon as I put my bag away." Raven turned, not waiting for a reply and headed for her room.
"You know, I'd sure like to try your new recipe too!" Terra whined to Beast Boy.
"I didn't think you liked tofu." Beast Boy said and walked to the kitchen to start getting the kitchen ready. Terra just stood in shock, having been completely blown off by her boyfriend. The angry blond threw herself onto the couch, huffing in anger.
Raven had just walked into the kitchen when she was met by an unusual sight. Beast Boy was pouring a cup of her favorite herbal tea. "I figured it would be safest for you to sit back and watch, you know, after that cookie incident."
"I can live with that." Raven sat on the counter, sipping her tea and watching Beast Boy prepare their meal. Few of the others knew that Raven had actually gone vegan at one point, soon after the team was formed. Beast Boy's feelings against meat eating and all related things had entirely overwhelmed her. She didn't know how to take it at first, but eventually built up a resistance to the strange feeling.
She had gone almost a year like that, and she had to admit, it wasn't all bad. Without the heavy meat weighing her down, she felt faster and more agile; however, it was not good for her immune system, lacking proteins that the meat provide. She had left her vegan days behind, but still had a few habits that she never really gave up. One of which was eating tofu.
Beast Boy quickly had the white block chopped up and in a skillet with a few herbs, spices, and some peppers. The smell was enough to make Raven's stomach growl. "I'm guessing you didn't eat breakfast." Beast Boy asked never taking his eyes off the food.
"Not much, just a muffin on the way to the mall. All of that shopping with Star worked up an appetite." Raven sat and sipped her tea, never taking her eyes off of Beast Boy. "So how are things with Terra?"
This caught Beast Boy off guard. He looked up, a bit shocked. "I dunno, she just seems a bit clingier lately. Not that I don't like the attention, but I haven't even been able to play a single video game today! It's getting to be a bit too much." Finishing his sentence he dished out their meal and sat down next to Raven.
"I knew I shouldn't have told you. Now you're going to look for every flaw in your relationship. I'm so sorry Beast Boy." After that, the two ate in silence. Raven would never tell the others, but she loved Beast Boy's cooking.
Raven offered to do the dishes in return for the meal, and Beast boy went back to try to get at least a one video game in today. She had a feeling that wasn't going to happen anytime soon.
A/N: Not much longer, but I got it up really fast!
