Beast Boy strolled into the living room, where only Raven was resting, reading a book. He cranked up the radio when he heard a favorite song of his turn on:
This is the story of a girl
Who cried a river and drowned the whole world
Raven grimaces, recalling when she almost ended earth itself.
And while she looks so sad in photographs
I absolutely love her
When she smiles
Beast Boy glances at Raven, remembering every single time he saw her smile, opposed to her expressionless face right now.
How many days in a year?
She woke up with hope but she only found tears
Raven woke up, to find the day had come, and her hope was worthless. The prophecy would be fullfilled.
and I can be so insincere,
Making the promises never for real
Beast Boy and Raven fighting....ALOT
As long as she stands there waiting
Wearing the holes in the soles of her shoes
How many days disappear?
When you look in the mirror so how do you choose?
Your clothes never wear as well the next day
Your hair never falls in quite the same way
You never seem to run out of things to say
Beast Boy constantly trying to cheer up Raven, no matter how sad, he always had something to say.
This is the story of a girl
Who cried a river and drowned the whole world
And while she looks so sad in photographs
Again, Raven cringes.
I absolutely love her
When she smiles
Beast Boy again looks at Raven, imaging her bright smile.
How many lovers would stay?
Just to put up with this every day and all day?
Would you stay if you had to fight crime every day?
How did we wind up this way?
Watching our mouths for the words that we say
As long as we stand here waiting
Wearing the clothes on the soles of our shoes
How do we get there today?
When we're walking too far for the price of her shoes
Your clothes never wear as well the next day
Your hair never falls in quite the same way
But you never seem to run out of things to say
Beast Boy's constant babbling did, though she'd never admit it, make Raven feel better.
This is the story of a girl
Who cried a river and drowned the whole world
Raven tries to ignore this line.
And while she looks so sad and lonely there
Raven felt alone, and sad, because she was 'creepy'. Malchior took away that, but then returned it.
I absolutely love her
When she smiles
Raven smiles, having defeated her father and saved her friends. Beast Boy runs up to hug her.
Well your clothes never wear as well the next day
And your hair never falls in quite the same way
And you never seem to run out of things to say
Beast Boy, again, puts his foot in his mouth.
This is the story of a girl
Who cried a river and drowned the whole world
Raven again tries to ignore this line, reading her book is suddenly very hard.
And while she looks so sad in photographs
I absolutely love her
Beast Boy recalls how the pictures they have, very few have Rae smiling.
This is the story of a girl
Her pretty face she hid from the world
Raven's always hiding her face under her hood.
And while she looks so sad and lonely there
I absolutely love her
This is the story of a girl
Who cried a river and drowned the whole world
And while she looks so sad in photographs
I absolutely love her
When she smiles
When she smiles!
The song fades away and Beast Boy goes to put the volume down. "Raven?" he asked. The empath gave a small sigh. "Yes?" Beast Boy went and plopped down next to her, as to which she rose an eyebrow. Losing courage, Beast Boy quickly got up and began to leave. "Never mind." he said.
"The answers yes." Raven called. Beast Boy froze. "Huh?" Raven glanced behind the couch. "Yes, I'll go out with you." Beast Boy rejoiced. Raven stopped him. "But don't get too excited."
Beast Boy turned to stare at her. "Why?"
Raven smirked. "Because, you're still an idiot." And with that, she shrouded herself in black energy and phased through the floor, gone.
Ta-da! My first songfic, and I like the way it came out. Thanks for reading!
