Kyd Wykkyd went home in silence, only thinking of the Raven girl. He fought back the tears that dared to threaten escape. He walked slowly to his room, on his way, he passed by Jinx.
"Told you I'd kill her, "she whispered.
Go to Hell, he growled.
The pink-haired witch just laughed and continued walking. "I'll meet you there, Wykkyd."
He grinded his teeth together the rest of the way to his room. Now that he thought about it, his room was slightly similar to Raven's. Same dark style with some differences. For instance, Kyd Wykkyd's bed didn't have the over-head arch like Raven's. And his bedding was a shade darker.
He smiled at how they were so much alike. He changed into his 'pajamas' and crawled into bed. He sobbed quietly for Raven. Raven. He thought. He jumped up. RAVEN!
He quickly teleported to titan's tower, popping up in Raven's room. He spotted Raven lying in her bed on her side, the blanket pulled up to her chest which was rising and falling with different intervals.
He went to her bed and touched her cheek, a tear slipping from the corner of his eye. Raven, he whispered. The girl moaned softly and turned over. She peered at the boy, only dressed in black boxers and a gray muscle shirt, standing next to her bed. "Wykkyd?" she asked quietly.
I'm here Raven. He answered. I'm here.
Raven smiled and turned over once more. "Good." She said. He smiled and sat on the edge of her bed. The girl moved over so he could crawl in bed with her. "Lie down with me."
Anything for YOU Raven.
He lay on top of the covers and got closer to Raven. She kicked the covers, revealing the bandage wrapped around her abdomen. He gasped in his mind and moved away so he could get a better look.
He was mortified by what he saw. From below her chest to right above her waist the bandage was wrapped tightly around her. "Is something wrong?" she asked, turning to face him.
He quickly got back in bed and hugged her. I'm SO sorry, Raven.
She hissed at where his arm was. Her nails dug into his arms as he hugged her. "Wykkyd," she said through clenched teeth. He snapped his arm back and looked at the indentation she made. He glared at her then noticed that she started to breathe funny. Raven. Raven, what's wrong? He asked frantically. Where does it hurt?
She gained control of her breathing and relaxed. "Sorry. Your arm was crushing my wound."
His eyes widened and he took a step back, scared that he'd made it worse. I'm sorry Raven! Do you need help? She shook her head at him.
"Just…don't touch me there." Her eyes were closed and she was clutching her side. Kyd Wykkyd nodded and sat down again. He took her hand as she turned over once more. Realizing that he wasn't going to crawl back in with her, the demoness looked at him with a glare. "What do you think you're doing?"
He stared, stunned at her. Oh, so he could kiss her but he couldn't hold her hand? She smirked. "Get back in here with me, silly." He sighed in relief and hesitantly got in. He slowly and carefully wrapped his arms around her waist, making sure to not touch her ribs, and pulled her closer.
He buried his face in her purple hair and her scent. Mmmm, he thought while his eyes drifted shut.
"What, Wykkyd?" she asked.
Huh? Oh, nothing. You just…smell good.
She smiled and wrapped her arms around his. "And what do I smell like exactly?"
He smiled and nuzzled her neck with his nose. Mmmm. You smell like…lavender…and vanilla…and sage.
Her smile grew wider but faded as someone got closer to her room. "Someone's coming."
Wykkyd was too caught up in Raven's scent to listen. Hmmm? He asked, kissing the nape of her neck softly.
"Wykkyd, someone's coming."
His eye snapped open and he looked at her. WHAT?
"I said 'someone's COMING'."
He jumped out of her bed. Should I leave?
"What?! No." she hoped he wasn't going to leave.
Then what should I do? Hide in your closet?
"Yes," she hissed.
I was kidding, Raven.
"I wasn't. Get in my closet. HURRY." He sighed and teleported to her closet.
Raven rolled onto her side and pretended to look asleep as Robin stepped inside. The boy wonder sat on the edge of her bed and placed his hand on her shoulder. "Raven? You awake?"
She shut her eyes tightly and mumbled. "No."
He got up and began to leave; realizing that she WAS awake, he spun around and glared at her which made her smirk. "Hey! You're awake!"
"No duh, Boy Blunder." She sat up and looked at him. "Are you just gonna glare at me or are you gonna check my injuries?"
"Huh?" he asked dumbly. "Oh! Right." He walked to her and carefully unwrapped the bandage. She sucked in a mouthful of air and shut her eyes against the pain. Robin's hand brushed softly against the bruise from the ladder and smiled in approval. "Well, that's good. It's only a bruise now, Raven. Your body heals itself faster than I thought."
She opened her eyes and noticed Robin staring at her side. "Well, if you're done 'checking me out', you can go now."
Robin looked into her eyes and nodded. He began re-bandaging her. "Goodnight Raven." He said as he left her dark room.
Suddenly, Kyd Wykkyd was at her side and he pulled her into his lap. I don't like that guy, Raven.
She chuckled and leaned into his chest. "I'm pretty sure he doesn't like you either."
He smiled and kissed her cheek. Let's go back to bed.
She looked at him and she caught the gleam in his eyes. "Let's."
The whole night, the couple held each other and with every two hours, Wykkyd would hide in the closet until Robin finished checking up on her. Each time, Wykkyd would say that he didn't like Robin. Raven just smiled and sighed in content. The two fell asleep in each other's embrace.
The next morning, Kyd Wykkyd was gone. Raven woke up to find a black rose and a note instead of Wykkyd himself. She took the rose and read his elegant handwritten note.
Raven,
I'm sorry these had to greet you good morning instead of me. I can't wait to see you again, other than tonight of course. But I hope the next time we see each other, it won't be because my team decided to attack and it won't end in bloodshed. See you soon my dark angel.
--Wykkyd
Raven smiled at the phrase 'my dark angel'. She stretched and got out of bed. She placed the rose in a vase on her nightstand next to her bed. She walked to her window and rested her hand on the cold glass. "Good morning, Wykkyd." She said to her reflection in the window. She turned and walked out of her room to start the day without her Kyd Wykkyd.
