Beast Boy flew towards the tower as fast as he could. He could think of nothing else but of Robin and Raven together, and how much it made him mad. When you're this pissed off you don't think straight, in fact, you don't think at all. All you want to do is punch the first thing you find and, when he finally got to the tower he went towards the living room and did just that, punch everything he could punch. Luckily, he soon injured his right hand when he punched the wall and decided to sit on the floor and try to calm himself, but it didn't really work. 'Why are you doing this to me, Raven?' He thought to himself.
Meanwhile, Robin had managed calm himself down a bit. He looked at his companions, who looked at him with confused looks. Except for Raven, she was clearly trying not to cry.
"Think you guys can take Dr. Light without me?" He said with a serious tone as he headed towards his motorcycle.
"Why? Where are you going?" Starfire asked worried.
"I'm going to talk to Beast Boy." He answered as he put his helmet on. The way he said 'talk' didn't sound right.
"Umm… I don't know if that's a good idea. Dr. Light is long gone, Raven is in no condition to fight (she would've used her powers to teleport where ever Beast Boy was, but she couldn't use them because of her emotions), and..." Cyborg tried to explain but noticed it was useless when he heard Robin's motorcycle leave.
If you thought Beast Boy was pissed, Robin wasn't too happy either. He was publicly humiliated in front of his friends BY ONE OF HIS FRIENDS. What type of leader lets that happened? What would Batman say if he saw that shameful display? Robin couldn't think straight either, he kept going faster and faster. He knew Beast Boy would be at the Tower so he headed directly to it.
Beast Boy was taking deep breaths and had finally cooled down. However, he heard steps heading his way. It was only one person so he had no doubt it was Robin. When the doors slid open he saw boy wonder. He was holding his helmet with his right hand and was heading towards Beast Boy with an angry look on his face. Beast Boy may have broken his right hand, but he was ready to break his left if Robin tried to attack him.
Robin finally stopped only a few inches in front of him and stared at him. It looked like he was trying to intimidate him, what he didn't know as that he was trying his hardest not to punch him. Finally, Robin said:
"I hope it's worth it."
This caught Beast Boy off guard, 'Was worth it? What did he mean?' Seeing his friend confused he decided to continue:
"Not only did you disobey your leaders others, you assaulted him, in middle of a battle no less. So I hope that whatever happened between you and Raven, and somehow got me involve, is worth the risk of losing everything you've achieved these 5 years. BECAUSE THAT'S WHAT YOU'RE DOING!"
He screamed as he threw his helmet on the ground (again, we like to throw and break things when we're angry, it's a guy thing). Beast Boy was starting to calm down and starting to realize the mistake he had made.
"I hope it's worth risking being thrown out of the team, losing your friends and losing your relationship with Raven."
This sentence in particular felt like three punches on the stomach.
"Because I know that you've always got the best intentions and that you would never risk all that without a reason, but you're also one of the DUMBEST guys I know. But even YOU aren't dumb enough to not realize that you got lucky with Raven. And that anything you'd do that could risk losing her would have to be really important." He paused and still angry he said. "So, I hope it was worth it."
Hearing what Robin was saying made Beast Boy feel like crap. He was absolutely right. A guy like him could only dream of being with a girl like Raven and he was throwing everything because she used to have a crush on him way back when. So what if she used to have a crush on him? So what if he was probably her second choice? All that mattered was that he had become Raven's choice, which was already more than someone like him could ever hope.
Robin, seeing the reaction on Beast Boy's face, decided he had made his point. Beast Boy was going to say something but was cut off by Robin:
"Save it. Think about what you want to say, you have two hours to apologize to Raven and me. If either of us does not accept your apology, I'm going to have to take you out of the team."
Beast Boy's ears dropped, he looked at the floor and nodded. Robin than left the living room, but before he did the door slid open and revealed Starfire and Cyborg. Robin passed between them, ignoring them. Starfire followed him worried and Cyborg looked at his green friend on the ground with his back against the wall, crying like he hadn't seen him cry before.
Cyborg sat next to him and waited until he had calmed down. When he did, he put a hand on his shoulder. "Talk to me BB." He said as he looked at him. Beast Boy told him everything, what pink Raven had told him, what happened on the double date and what Robin had just told him.
At first, Cyborg felt sorry for his green friend, but in an attempt to cheer him up he said: "That's it?"
"What do you mean 'that's it'? It's not enough?" He couldn't believe what his robot friend had just said.
"That's nothing, trust me." He said with a smile on his face, Beast Boy was still puzzled. "Everything is going to be fine, as long as you do what I say."
"Okay…" Beast Boy said very skeptical.
"You go apologize to Robin right now, before he decides to change his mind. In half an hour or more do the same with Raven."
"That's it?" He asked while his friend nodded in response.
"Trust me, this will work." He said as he got up and headed towards the door "Oh and when you go talk to Raven it is vital that you tell her exactly how you feel." Cyborg said before leaving the room with Beast Boy still confused.
