I went back into the kitchen to finally eat some meat. I knew I needed something like that in my body otherwise I would go crazy and I didn't want to spark another Jersey Devil hunt. I rolled my eyes at the memory. The kitchen was mostly empty excpet for Raven who was sitting at the table, reading a book and sipping herbal tea. Out of the idiots living here, Raven was the one I could tolerate the most. I felt comfortable around her because we didn't have to talk when we were around each other, we were fine with the silence.

Although silence can be deadly at times.

I took a smaller portion of meat this time, and took a seat across from Raven. She kept reading her book and I calmly ate my raw meat. I got lost in my thoughts of the past, the terrible past when Raven interrupted my flow,

"Uh can I get you something to drink with that?" she asked.

I blinked, "Oh, uh no thanks this has got all the juice I need."

"So you're really a vampire aren't you?" Raven said setting her book aside, "Like actual part demon?"

"I guess so, " I shrugged, "I mean I'm definatelyy not human and have powers, so."

"I'm actually part demon myself. Where you born that way?"

"Yeah, long time ago in the 1000's," I sighed reliving memories, "I won't reveal much becasue it's safer that way but my family had to move around a lot because I didn't age quickly and a lot of my friends died in ways I just can't say. Sure I lived a human life thanks to a desperate situation. I'm not sure if it made my life better or worse when I found out I wasn't human. If I didn't choose the path I followed, I wouldn't have met all the great people I did, even though they're dead now. Which makes me wonder what would have happened if I lived a normal human life? I guess it would have been better in a way that I wouldn't know this pain and rage I have now but I know I would have gone a very bad path. I guess I wasn't destined to be happy forever."

"It's not very good to dwell on the past," Raven spoke.

I smirked, "My past stares at me from across the room everyday and each day it gets closer and closer until one day I'll find it right in front of my face and it'll be too late."

"It won't be too late. You have a friend who cares about you and we'll do anything we can to help."

I smiled, "I don't really think there's a lot you guys can do. I don't intend for Flickr to be apart of this as I almost lost her once. As for you guys, you got your hands tied with the city. This thing was started by my sector and has to be finished. I don't know if I'll get the results I hope for but it won't hurt to try," I shurgged, "If some stupid humans don't show up and ruin everything."

Raven was going to respond when the door slid open and revealed Beast Boy and Flickr.

Holding hands.

Something about that image just bothered me. I couldn't see Flickr with a boy holding hands nonetheless because she's, well, Flickr!

Raven looked visably upset but everyone except me was oblivious to that. She excused herself, picked up her book and tea and left the room in a hurry. Okay now I was kinda mad. I looked in the direction of the two love birds and almost puked. Green bean was preparing some kind of white slop on a bun and trying to feed it to Flickr who gulped it down, a smile on her face the whole time. I took a big bite out of my meat, trying to get the imagined taste of white slop out of my head.

Raven obviously liked Beast Boy on account of how upset she looked when those two walked in. Beast Boy, being the oblivious asshole he is, totally destroys her feelings by showing up with my best friend. Double fucking whammy! The scene in front of me was so utterly disgusting it made me wanna hit an idiot. A green, clueless, homewrecking idiot. Who was almost arms length. Nah, not yet.

I huffed and picked up my meat to bring to my room while the lovefest continued in the kitchen. I bumped into Raven in the hallway, eavesdropping on the convo in the other room.

"Where you eavesdropping on them?" I asked smirking.

Raven straightend herself, "Maybe, why?"

"You like Beast Boy don't you," I said more as a statement than a question.

A hint of pink appeared on Raven's cheeks, "If you promise not to tell anyone, yes I do, I think I do anyway."

"Sorry man, I know that's rough," I sympathsized with her.

Raven quietly sighed, "I'm gonna head back to my room."

I nodded and headed back to mine, furious at Beast Boy and mad at Flickr. I know I shouldn't but I just do. I lay down on my quicksand bed, thinking on what I could do in a sneaky fashion to either kill Beast Boy or kill Beast Boy slowly. Or help Raven. Yeah, that works. But that means I have to get him away from Flickr who I guess really likes him which would break her heart! Ah stupid fucking love!

My door slid open and Flickr bounced in with a huge smile on her face, "Hello Ivory! Isn't this such a beautiful day! Sun shining-"

"Too much sunlight can kill me."

"Birds singing-"

"They annoy me."

"All the wonderful people in the world!"

"Yeah and I hear their wonderful language on their way to work on the highway."

"And best of all, "She twirled around and sang, "The most perfect boy you've ever met in your entire existance!"

"I'm a thousand I still have time to look."

"I know you don't like him for some reason Ivory but once you get to know him he's so cool and funny and nice!"

I sighed. I know.

"You really like him don't you Flickr?" I asked sadly, preparing to break my best friends heart.

She plopped down on my bed and grabbed a pillow, hugging it to her chest, "Yeah, I really do. Well this might just be puppy love but it's the best type-"

"Raven likes Beast Boy and they sorta have a past together," I blurted out.

She froze, then looked at me, "What?"

"I'm pretty sure Beast Boy did like Raven at a time and Raven still likes Beast Boy, she told me in the hallway. She was really upset when she saw you guys holding hands."

Flickr just sat there for a moment, the her face switched to anger, "You know, I think you're just jealous that I actually found someone who makes me happy and you can't!"

My mouth dropped. What the fuck was happening.

"You know, I think you should just face facts Ivory, that other people can be happy with their lives and you should just excpet that instead of making lies!" Flames flew from her fingertips as she stormed out of my room. I sat there, hurt by her words. Then I shrugged them off. What's another friend loss?
