The Green Freak (Reuploaded)

by CrashandSonic11

Yup, I'm reuploading this one too, but I'm still ending it on chapter 5, I originally intended on two alternate endings but decided that what I have right now on chapter 5 is probably better, if you want to make your own ending feel free to do so, the thought of a re-attempt at this story has crossed my mind, but I'm not sure if I'm quite ready to take the M-Rating route quite yet

4. Chapter 4

The Green Freak - Chapter 4: Brink

Beast Boy stared at Raven for a moment, to her confusion he started chuckling with no humor in his voice, she raised a concerned eyebrow, "What's so funny?"

Beast Boy stopped the laughter abruptly, "I must be insane if I see Raven sitting beside me…" Raven frowned slightly.

"You're not insane, I'm really here."

Beast Boy frowned, his ear twitched picking up on more sound behind him, he slowly turned and saw the rest of the Titans and Batman.

"I'm totally insane…" He deadpanned, "Why else would the team be here with Batman of all people to 'help' me?"

Robin spoke up, "We had no idea where you were, you left without saying goodbye, we're lucky Batman noticed you in Gotham."

Beast Boy focused his gaze on Batman, "You told them where I was, because?"

Batman frowned, "Because you're their teammate, remember?"

Beast Boy's eyes narrowed, "Teammate? I'm a pet. That's what everyone's been saying, they don't think I can hear them." Beast Boy pointed to one of his ears, "Is it some sick irony that I have enhanced hearing?"

The group froze, Batman seemed unfazed however.

"You shouldn't care what they think." The Dark Knight spoke.

Beast Boy growled, "That's easy for you to say, people fear you far too much to insult you behind your back everyday, people don't fear me, they just hate me…"

Raven nearly yelled, "I don't hate you!"

All attention on her, she clamped her mouth shut in surprise.

Beast Boy held a confused expression, "That's… Impossible… You hate me… Everyone hates me." Raven sighed, she had to tell him the truth, it could save him.

"Garfield, I really don't hate you."

"You really like messing with my head don't you, if you don't hate me then what could you possibly feel for me? Beast Boy questioned.

Raven sighed again, nearly in tears, "Gar, I love you."

Beast Boy flinched, "That's not true, it can't be true, no, this is a trick, no one could love me, this can't be true…" Raven couldn't wait any longer, she grabbed Beast Boy and pulled him into a hug, however, Beast Boy didn't flinch away this time.

She heard him continuing his ranting, "You can't, it makes no sense, why would you?"

Before she knew it, Beast Boy was crying.

She whispered comforting words to him as he cried, as he let it all out.
