Hey guys, so I forgot to name the other song in the last chapter so just as a quick reminder/disclaimer thing… the songs were Demons by Imagine Dragons and I'm sexy and I know it by LMFAO and I do not own them. Talking of things I do not own, I also don't own the Teen Titans. I have decided that I am going to try and make this the last chapter. Purely because I have begun to get busy again with work and I don't want to make people wait. Now, onto the story…
I woke up back in Titan's tower. How did I get here? I was questioning myself as to why I could not remember the events from the last couple of days when I noticed that Raven was laying in a healing trance on the bed next to me. I went to reach out and hold her hand and that's when I realized that I was strapped to the bed. Was I the one who put her in that healing trance? I began to feel physically sick. I was hurt, yes, but I never meant to hurt Raven. I still loved her! At that moment in time Robin decided to walk through the door, his arms folded expression cold underneath his mask.
"Beastboy" even his tone of voice was steely. I was in deep trouble. "Give me one good reason as to why I shouldn't kick you off the team straight away for what you have done?" I flinched, Raven's current state must have been caused by me, I hung my head.
"I can't give you a good reason as I can't remember what I did" I kept my eyes to the floor until I felt a hand on my shoulder. "That was the reason I was hoping you would give. If you can't remember it means that the Beast took over and it wasn't you consciously acting." I looked up. The Beast? I attacked Raven with the Beast. The sickness feeling was getting worse. Robin began to untie the straps that held me to the bed. I rubbed my wrists then slung my legs over the side of the bed and sat up. Staring at Raven, I had to know what happened, so I asked Robin.
"Well…" He began. "I think we should start right at the start with this one. Come through to the main room and I shall…" I interrupted. "No. Raven is in the mess because of me. I will not leave her side until she is healed." I picked up her hand and began to stroke the back of her hand with my thumb. Robin continued.
"As you wish… Now Beastboy what you think happened at that New Years party isn't true. Raven was sitting content waiting for you to come back upstairs when Aqualad, who was out of his head drunk, grabbed her and kissed her; just as you walked in. You didn't stick around long enough to see Raven nearly throw him out of a window with her powers and then you never came back to hear her side of the story. You just assumed that she had chosen somebody else other than you."
I hung my head in shame again as Robin continued.
"She has spent all of her time since that night searching for you. Every day she scours the city searching for the slightest trace of you. She hasn't been eating properly. I don't know how much weight she has lost because of it and she doesn't sleep properly. She loves you and it was her idea to throw Cyborg a fake birthday party so we could trap you. She didn't want to hurt you or tranquillise you but she knew it might be the only way to make you see sense. So that is what we did. We through a fake birthday party and made sure that only members of the Titans or honorary Titans were attending. Unfortunately, you were too quick for us. When you gate crashed as the Beast, you literally ran circles around us until Raven ran in the room. Then you stopped and she stopped and before we could stop you…"
Here Robin faltered a bit so I looked him in his eyes and willed him to carry on. "You charged her and knocked her with so much force into a wall that it broke nearly every single bone in her body. You knocked her unconscious straight away but unfortunately as far as we can see her body has healed nicely due to her healing trance. She just hasn't woken up yet."
I felt tears stream down my face. How could I have been such an idiot? Anyone who ever met Aqualad knew that he was a slimy, sleazy guy. I should have known better than to believe that Raven would have left me for him. She couldn't stand the fish smell to begin with. I had very nearly, in every way possible, completely broken the one true love I had.
I sensed rather than heard or saw Robin leaving the room but I was glad he did. I needed time to think. I needed to think. I needed a way to make all of this up to Raven. I bent forward and lent my head on the side of Ravens head. I don't know how long I sat there for. It was only for the fact that I felt a slight bump as Raven's body hit the bed that I came out of my own little world. That's when it clicked. Ravens healing trance had finished. I whipped my head up to find her eyes open and staring at me. I began to babble.
"Raven I am so sorry. I have been such a horrible person. Please forgive me. I will be better. I'm so sorry. I love you" When she held up her hand and looked me in the eye and said,
"I love you too. Just don't ever disappear on me again"
Okay so I did decide to make this the last chapter. Purely because I had no real idea where this story was going so I decided to wrap it up nice and quick. However the ending is probably a little rushed. Oh well. I hope you enjoyed the story and thank you for reading.
