As promised here is the second part, and on Valentine's Day. Thank you everyone for the reviews! Keep following my story! Enjoy.
Raven couldn't sleep that night. All she could think about was which of her friends would be on the roof the next morning. She couldn't understand why anyone on the team would waste effort on loving someone like her. Whoever it was had given her thoughtful gifts. Raven really wanted to know who the person was. The only clue that made sense to her was the stuffed chicken, which meant it was one of two of her friends.
Raven got out of bed, it was around four in the morning, and she couldn't fall back asleep. All she could think about was the person she would be meeting. Raven looked at the gifts that were given to her. A detailed raven locket, a leather journal with a blue flower in the front page, and the stuffed chicken; she then looked at each written clue. The only one that didn't make sense was the second one. The flower came from his home. Raven looked through her books to find one that could contain any information on flowers and their meanings. Once she finally found one she flipped endlessly until she found the flower that was stuck into her journal. Raven slammed the book shut as she heard the sound of her books falling off the shelf.
Raven could see the sun start to peek over the horizon as she finished meditating to regain control of her emotions before she went to meet Beast Boy. The sorcerous checked her reflection in her bathroom mirror before going to meet him on the roof.
When Raven got there she saw Beast Boy sitting on the edge of the roof watching the sun as it began to rise into the sky.
"Beast Boy." Raven said in her usual monotone voice to hide the fact that she was screaming on the inside.
Beast Boy stood up and rubbed the back of his neck nervously, "Hey Rae. Um I'm glad you came."
Raven said the only thing that she could think of at the moment. "I don't understand. Why would you love someone like me?"
"I love you for who you are. You aren't like most girls, or people for that matter. You like creepy things, you're really sarcastic, and you're quiet all the time. You're also caring, smart, and brave. I love all those things about you. You aren't afraid to like what you like." Beast Boy said trying to meet her eyes all the while.
"I'm nothing like you." Raven said barely above a whisper.
"I know."
"I don't know what to say Beast Boy." Raven looked down after saying.
"Say that you'll let me in. You'll let me love you. Say you'll give us a chance." Beast Boy replied tilting her head up to look him in the eyes.
"I…I…." Raven couldn't form words; she could feel herself losing control of her powers. Before her powers could unleash on the unsuspecting world around her, Raven teleported to her room; leaving a stunned Beast Boy on the roof.
Starfire walked down the halls of the tower, floating was really more like it as she had just come from an amazing date with Robin. When she passed by Raven's door, though, she stopped. Starfire could hear banging coming from the other side of the door and decided to investigate.
"Raven? Friend, may I come in?"
The door to Raven's room slid open to reveal her destroyed room with Raven, herself, in the center, with her face tucked down into her body.
"Friend what is wrong?"
"He told me he loved me. He told me he loved me and I panicked. I left him on the roof. I don't understand how he could love me. My father is Trigon. I'm part demon. I don't understand how he could love someone like me." Raven said while trying to hold back sobs from exiting her body.
Starfire sat in front of Raven, "May I give the advice? We are talking about Beast Boy, yes?"
Raven nodded. "Raven, you are not a bad person. You being part demon has nothing to do with your character. Your past does not matter at this point."
"I realize that now that I can think somewhat logically, but I still don't understand how he could love me. He's a good person, he's always trying to make people happy."
"Raven, there is a saying that I wish to share with you. It may help. There is saying on my planet that we accept the love we think we deserve. You may not think you deserve his love, but obviously he thinks that you do. You should talk to him." Starfire said putting her hand on Raven's shoulder. Starfire stood and exited Raven's room.
"Beast Boy?" Raven said knocking on his door. After some shuffling sounds Beast Boy emerged from his room.
"Raven?"
"I'm sorry. I shouldn't have panicked. I should have been honest. I should have accepted it."
"Rae it's ok. I mean it was a long shot anyway." Beast Boy replied looking at the ground.
Raven took a deep breath to muster up the courage to launch into a hug with Beast Boy. At first the boy stiffened, but after seeming to register what was happening, he hugged her tightly back.
"Beast Boy, I don't deserve you. I'm honored you feel that I do but I don't know if I could hurt you like that."
Beast Boy pulled away just enough to look her in the face. "No Raven, it's the other way around. I don't deserve you."
"Yes you do."
Beast Boy leaned in slowly to gage Raven's response. When she didn't pull away from him, Beast Boy kissed her quickly. It was short lived and barely more than a peck, but to him it felt like heaven. The only thing that could make it better was to get the chance to do it again.
"Was that ok?" He asked nervously.
Raven responded by kissing him again. This time, however, it was much more than just a peck.
