Chapter 4

Dear Angel

Beast Boy looked out of his window and exhaled deeply. It was still raining. The angels were still crying.

He watched the rain run down his window, until it stopped at the window sill so he couldn't see anymore.

Beast Boy looked down at the person who was lying their head unconsciously on his lap - the person that he loved.

Her red hair was sprawled over his covers that was covering his lower region, he could hear her almost silent breathing beneath him and his eyes studied her breasts that were moving with every breath she took.

Smiling gently, he placed his forehead on hers lightly so not to wake her up, although he knew very well that Starfire was a very heavy sleeper and only a large alarm would wake her.

He brushed the hair over her cheeks away with his two thumbs and sighed peacefully, enjoying her presence even if she was asleep.

Then he remembered how Raven had put her forehead against her now dead boyfriend and had brushed his hair away from his face.

Feeling guilty, he pushed himself away from Starfire, his eyes glazed and welled up with tears again.

He had imagined if they had been in the exact same place Colad had been. Now Colad was a very clever and intelligent man, he could have handled more than sixty of those clones by himself.

He and Starfire together could have handled over one hundred.

But supposedly the people who had got Colad wasn't clones? But actually real people who was targeting him?

If Starfire had been there? Would he be the one trying not to cry as his beloved slowly died in his arms?

Beast Boy closed his eyes and turned away from those thoughts. He never wanted to see someone die in such a cruel way ever again.

Especially if that someone was so close to him that the person was literally one of his special someone's.

"Koriand'r…" Beast Boy whispered, stroking her face with his two thumbs softly. "It's Colad's funeral today. Robin wanted it as fast as possible. Were supposed to be wearing black but all you've got is purple and pink. Well, you do have one brown dress. So I guess you COULD go in that…Sorry, I'm rambling to a sleeping person. You just mean the world to me and I really don't want to imagine the pain going through Raven's brain. Because believe me Koriand'r, I would die if you died. That's a promise. Koriand'r, don't you ever dare die on me, okay? Dudette, you dare die on me and I'll never forgive you. In fact, If I ever get the chance Kori, I promise I'll marry you. Hey! We can have a double wedding with Aqualad and Terra. You know that would be fun? Sorry Kori, I'm babbling aren't I? Tell me If I'm babbling."

Beast Boy grinned again as no answer came from the older alien's lips.

Turning towards his window again, he was glad to see that the angels had stopped crying.

"Your babbling Garfield." Came a quiet voice below him.

Looking down, Beast Boy managed a smile as he's eyes connection with the sleepy emerald ones of Starfire.

"Sorry, did I wake you up Dudette?" He asked, trying his best to look sorry.

"Yes, but it does not matter. It is the day of sadness for friend Raven, yes?" Starfire asked, her emerald green eyes full of melancholy.

Beast Boy felt his shoulders slump. "Yeah Kori," he merely whispered as he stroked her forehead with his thumb. "Yeah, and we've got to support Raven in every way possible."

Starfire nodded, leaning her head against Beast Boy's bare chest as she snuggled into his warmth.

"Yes Garfield, we must. Will friend Raven get over friend Colad in the end?" Starfire asked, looking up at her boyfriend with pleading eyes.

Beast Boy looked down at her, the warmth of his body against hers made a shiver go down his spine as he looked into her bright orbs.

"Maybe. Maybe Starfire, Kori!" He corrected himself, trying his best to shoot a smile down at her.

Starfire showered him with happiness when she gave him a tired smile before kissing his neck, whilst giving him butterfly kissed at the same time.

"Beast Boy." She managed to murmur as she stopped her attack on his neck and rested her head on his chest once more.

"Do you think friend Colad is smiling down on us?" Starfire asked innocently, her hands clutching the covers.

"No, not yet Kori. He's just waiting." Beast Boy replied firmly, looking out the window once again.

"For what Garfield?"

"For Raven. He is waiting for her to get her life back on track without him, he's probably grinning at us and calling us love birds though."

Starfire tried not to giggle.

.XIfYou'reNotTheOneX.

Raven was reading a book silently while the others got dressed for the funeral. She had silently decided that she wasn't going.

No way in hell was she going.

It's not that she didn't want to go - well actually it was - but, she didn't want to make a fool of herself.

She had tried to hide her tears from the others and failed.

She hated everyone at the moment.

At least they had given her some room when she had teleported straight to her room - away from everyone and everything.

So she wasn't happy at all when Beast Boy came in, Starfire not so far behind hanging onto his hand.

Beast Boy immediately stopped as he saw Raven reading her book, her eyes never moving, just staring blankly at the page as if she was hypnotized by it.

"Hey Raven!" He called, jumping up and down and waving at her. He was about to say 'what's up?' but he quickly rethought about it.

Raven glared at him and he swore on his and Starfire's life that she was going to try to attempt a smile at him.

"Hello." Came her usual monotone. "Beast Boy." She finished before looking back at her book.

Beast Boy tried his best not to sigh. He was also about to question why she wasn't getting dressed to go to Colad's funeral, except that he was stopped by an arm clinging onto his own.

Knowing it was Starfire and what her intentions were, he turned to the alien and gave her a small hug before turning to the kitchen fridge to make him and Starfire something for breakfast.

Realizing how selfish that would be if he didn't have the decency to at least ask Raven if she wanted anything, he looked over his shoulder to see that she was still on the same page.

"Hey, uhm. Raven! Want anything to eat?" He called from over his shoulder, sharing a very fake but reassuring looking smile.

Raven again glanced at him from her book, her eyes narrow as if she was trying to work him out.

"No." Was all she muttered before returning her gaze to the letter cradle.

Beast Boy mentally screamed.

Starfire, being her alien self floated over towards Raven, her friendliness with others starting to kick in as she threw herself on Raven - her arms around Raven's neck.

"Oh friend!" Was all Starfire could gasp as she tightened the grip on Raven's covered neck.

Normally, Raven would push Starfire off and continue reading, other than that she just didn't want to. In fact, she did what she would do when she was feeling as low as this - she ignored it.

And when Starfire let go of her, her eyes gleamed with an odd brightness that Raven knew was tears; she ignored it.

Tears.

Raven ignored them.

Beast Boy watched as Starfire sat on the high chair as she watched her gorftog cook silently, that was if he wasn't looking over his shoulder to check on her and Raven.

He was making tofu egg and tofu bacon for him and Starfire because he had purposely made her try some just to make him happy.

He hated when Raven was like this, she had been like it when she had lost Colad before and now he was actually gone forever? What would happen? Who would comfort her?

He loved Raven to death, she was one of his very close friends for crying out loud! And it killed him not know what to do.

Beast Boy watched Starfire silently, his thoughts replaying when they had gotten dressed formally, their little talk about not mentioning anything 'Colad' related and to try their very best to try and cheer up Raven secretly. It wasn't like anyone could cheer Raven up anyway, but hey nobody could exactly get him, Beast Boy down either!

Apart from Colad.

"Morning ya'll." Came a tired yawn from the entrance of the lounge.

Looking over, Beast Boy hid a friendly smile, waving his hand in front of his face and calling out the words, 'hey Cy big buddy!"

Starfire stared at Cyborg for a while before FORCING a tight smile towards her friend. "Good day of the morning Cyborg."

Silence left Raven's lips.

Sighing as he looked at the empath with pity, Cyborg placed a hand on Raven's shoulder before giving it a gentle squeeze.

"Hey Rae." He merely whispered, before closing his eyes and walking over to sit by Starfire - his grey eyes slits as they stared at the counter.

He was also wearing formal over his cyborg self.

"Hello." Came the usual monotone voice. Which even for Beast Boy was a surprise, he had been surprised when she had answered him! Never mind Cyborg.

"Cyborg." Raven finished before looking at the teams genius. (A/N: Cyborg IS a genius at making things.)

Giving her a friendly smile and a little wave, Cyborg counted to four. Why was he counting? It was because he was counting the time until he got the guts to get off his butt and go talk to his friend - comfort her and try to get her to at least try to smile? Even if it was for a second or even a half second. Anything.

Beast Boy looked at Cyborg, his eyebrow arched in question. Just tossing the look of more than concern, but still concern on Cyborg's face - Beast Boy turned back to his tofu.

2

"Hey, Cy. Want some tofu?" Beast Boy asked, noticing the tension in the atmosphere with a keen eye.

"Has it got meat in?" Cyborg asked, his chin in his palm.

Beast Boy narrowed his eyes suspiciously.

"I've told you once, I've told you a thousand times dude." Realizing that he was getting a bit loud, he shot the other part out in a hasty whisper. "It has not got meat in!"

3

"Then I don't want it." Cyborg replied, his thoughts obviously somewhere else where Beast Boy and Starfire was.

Starfire noticed the two arguing and tried her best not to frown at the childish behaviour of them both, by then realizing when she had been like that. Hiding her own thoughts again she turned to Cyborg, a thin line of worry etched on her face.

"Where is friend Robin? He is normally awake before us." Starfire asked her eyes moving all around the room.

4

"He's probably on the roof, Star. Y'know Robin, he likes to be alone and get on with things." Cyborg replied, his voice getting deeper but softer by the second.

"Oh, friend Robin does think a lot." Starfire replied, trying to keep the small talk small for Raven's sake.

5

Finally getting off his chair, Cyborg proceeded to sit by Raven on the couch, his eyes focusing on her from a sideways glance.

"Hey Rae, what are you wearing for…" Cyborg gulped. "The funeral."

Raven looked at him, her eyes as if they were made of steel.

.XIfYou'reNotTheOneX.

"You look nice Sylvia." Smiled Drake from the corridor, his new body - thanks to Cyborg's hologram rings - were a perfect human. He's once dragon/lion form now under lock and key until he unlocked his true form again to the world.

The raven haired woman turned and looked at her boyfriend before giving him a tired, sad smile.

"Thanks Drake…" She merely mumbled.

"I know it hurts Sylvia." Drake responded, placing his arms around her and giving her a kiss on the side of her head.

Sylvia broke down sobbing, her eyes becoming blurry. "I told him I'd never let anyone hurt him, damn it! And now he goes and dies!"

She turned so she was facing Drake's chest before thrashing her fists against his chest. "Bastard, bastard, BASTARD!"

"Shush Sylvie, Colad wouldn't want any of his old team mates to cry. It was nice that Robin invited us."

"I miss him too."

Both turning to the corridor, they saw Leon curled up against a corner, his eyes red and puffy looking; he had obviously been crying his heart out.

Sylvia heaved a sigh before rushing over to the blonde boy and let him cry in her chest.

The angels were crying once more.

.XIfYou'reNotTheOneX.

"Nothing." Raven finally replied before settling her gaze back on her book.

Beast Boy and Cyborg tried their hardest not to blush, whilst Starfire was slowly - and I mean SLOWLY - trying to figure out what exactly Raven meant by nothing.

"What do you mean by nothing? Rae?" Cyborg asked, curious at the answer he had been given.

"Nothing." Raven repeated. "I'm not going to the funeral."

Feeling the heat of a gaze on her. Looking over she almost growled at the way Beast Boy was staring at her.

Confusion, Shock.

Rage.

"Stop staring at me." Raven said bluntly, her eyes never leaving Beast Boy's angry tortured ones.

"No." Beast Boy whispered, almost inaudibly. Then a slam came as he pounded his fist onto the counter. "No!"

Starfire snapped out of her trance instantly.

"Garfield! Shush please! Friend Raven does not -"

"I don't give a damn!" Beast Boy yelled, his anger making his stomach twist in knots and different type of shapes making him feel sick. "Why the hell aren't you going to Colad's funeral?"

"BB, man! What are you doing?" Cyborg shouted, running towards his friend and holding the sixteen year olds by his arms.

Starfire on the other hand felt like her heart was breaking to pieces. She had NEVER seen her gorftog this angry. She was petrified. The way of his body movement, the anger in his eyes and the crushed feelings in his soul. It was hurting her immensely.

"It's none of your business." Raven said, her eyes having the hint of red in them.

"You don't go to your own boyfriend's funeral? What the hell? What in gods name are you thinking in that brain of yours?" Beast Boy proceeded to shout, trying his best to step forward. "He loved you!"

Starfire felt the tears that were welling up, she bit her tongue as if the pain would make the tears not fall.

"I said before Beast Boy. It's none of your business!" Raven snapped, obviously trying to keep her anger under control.

"It IS my business! Colad was my friend! And I loved him as a friend! That's why I'm going! Because I loved him! He was a brother to me! And if you aren't going, then guess what Raven? I obviously -"

He was cut off as he was thrown across the room and hit the kitchen fridge. Looking up from he noticed that Raven was standing directly above him. Her eyes doubled by two and with a fiery crimson glow to them.

"How do YOU know what I felt?" Raven clenched her fists again as her rage was starting to pour out of her.

Cyborg on the other hand was counting to five-thousand and twenty-two as he watched Raven pour her rage out at his fellow best friend and team mate.

Taking action, he grabbed her shoulders and shook her gently. "Rae! Raven! Calm down girl!"

And what surprised Beast Boy the most. She did.

Raven turned around to look at Cyborg, her eyes emotionless and empty, but also in a fashion of embarrassment at herself.

What also surprised him was the phone call he received from the funeral director.

Sighing as he reached for it, Beast Boy flicked it open and watched as a loud voice emitted from it.

"I'm so sorry, I'm really so sorry. The body! It's been stolen!"

Raven quickly took it from the changeling before letting herself give him the briefest of an apology smile which changed into a frown as Beast Boy stared at the ground with one of his eyes while the other looked at her shyly.

That however, changed into a demanding, furious, unforgiving tone. "What do you mean stolen?" Raven spoke, empathizing the word stolen.

"P-please ma'mm. Somebody has stolen the body of the young man you -" The funeral director began to stutter his words as he tried his hardest not to break down in tears.

"We'll be right there." Robin replied for Raven, snatching the com off her stealthily.

Beast Boy was looking around the kitchen as he watched this, searching for his Starfire.

"Hey Cy. Where did Star go?"

Cyborg was about to answer when Robin cut across them both.

"We haven't got time for this Beast Boy, come on. Starfire we'll be okay by herself. We need to go to the funeral directors."

When nobody seemed to move, Robin just mentally punched himself in the face.

"Titans, go!"

.XIfYou'reNotTheOneX.

"Are you crazy? First you tell us to try and kidnap Starfire from the Teen Titans! Then you tell us to make sure she doesn't escape and threaten her so she won't leave your side forever and crap! Now you're telling us that we've got to take all of the parts of the body you made us steal, apart? Are you loco?!" Leroy yelled banging his fist on the examining table where Colad lay, naked and cold to the world around him.

"I'm very much of a lunatic, Leroy." Mr Anderson laughed. "I get what I want, whenever I want. Now do it. In front of me. Destroy the body."

Axel watched them both, his eyebrows raised and his stomach twisting in all kinds of knots. Why did he do this job?

Leroy muttered quietly under his breath before proceeding to take the correct utensils to 'clean' up the mess.

Then a sobbing reached their ears as all three of them looked outside.

.XIfYou'reNotTheOneX.

Starfire wiped the tears away from her eyes, not knowing why she had ran from the Tower.

She had been so scared. Terrified. Why did her friend and lover need to argue? They were both friends, right?

Why had she run? She, Koriand'r of Tamaran did not run away from things like this! She was a princess, not a coward.

Starfire sighed. Blackfire was so much better than her at these kind of things - it would probably be better if Blackfire went out with Beast Boy.

Starfire clenched her fists angrily at the thought before sniffing again.

"This in the words of Garfield, is suckish?" Starfire asked nobody in particular as she looked up at the grey sky.

She had just wanted to be alone. To think. Beast Boy loved her, didn't he? Of course he did, she was being silly to think not.

Sillyness was thrown out her mind as two hands clasped her around the mouth and pulled her inside.
