First off. HOLY CRAP! Seven reviews on the first chapter! And I lost count of how many different people either favorited this story, followed it, or both! Not mentioning all the new people who either favorited or started following me as an author! You guys have no idea how honored I was when I saw all the notifications popping in my email after I woke up the next morning.

Also, shout-out to Greenhatred77! I recently finished reading his story "Family Problems" and I have to say, it was freaking amazing! You had me in tears throughout the whole thing! I can't wait to see if you do a sequel for it!

Forgive Me Chapter Two: Unspoken Feelings

The Infirmary of Titan's Tower

Beep...Beep...Beep...Beep...Beep...

That was the only sound the changeling sitting in a chair by a gurney was aware of. On the gurney, Raven was levitating several inches above the surface as she was deep into her healing trance.

Beast Boy had been sitting in the chair next to her gurney, ever since he had carried her limp body back to the tower. He had been worried out of his mind ever since the moment when he picked up her small, pale body from off the torn, ravaged ground of the small island. And he had let out the biggest sigh of relief when after he had hooked her up to the machines, she had lifted off the small gurney as she entered her healing trance. After he knew she was out of danger, he had called the team in Titan's East to let them know what he knew had happened to her. Which hadn't really been much.

After that, he had fallen asleep in the same chair by her gurney to the sound of the heartbeat monitor.

He woke up to the sounds of the T-Ship landing in the hangar up on the roof. He looked out the windows, but oddly enough, it was still nighttime. They were supposed to be back early, but not this early. But he couldn't bring himself to look away from the pale, floating beauty in front of him, despite the Titans being back so early. Ever since the day before, he had been wondering in his mind just what had happened while he had been away. Wondering if it had been his fault for her breakdown or not.

'Raven... what have I done?'

The changeling sighed to himself. He was still examining her, looking her over to see if she was any better than before. But still couldn't find any recognizable change that would indicate if she was better or worse.

So here he was. Still sitting by the gurney. Worried out of his mind for Raven. 'At least, things can't get any worse.' Beast Boy thought to himself. For all he knew, Raven could have died back there if he hadn't come when he did.

That was when the door finally slid open. And the other three Titans walked into the infirmary, saying nothing. They didn't look happy, at all, but Beast Boy failed to see it as he was still facing away from the door, looking at Raven. He heard them approach, but still nothing was said from them.

"Hey guys... how are the Titans East do-ING!" he shouted in surprise at the end when Cyborg picked him up by his collar and turned him around to face the others. A blank expression on his usually jovial face. Beast Boy looked in surprise towards Robin and Starfire and found something rather odd. Starfire, who usually had an air of kindness around her, had a dead set expression on her face that more resembled the fierce warrior part of her people. While Robin, who looked about the same, appeared to be holding back rage beneath the surface of his expression.

"Save the talk Beast Boy. What happened while we were away this time?" Robin said while glaring at him from underneath his black mask.

This caused Beast Boy's mind to fill up with confusion. "I already told you yesterday! We got in another fight and she threw me out of the main ops window of the tower. So I left her alone so she could cool off for a little bit. But when I got back to the tower, I heard her scream and found her on an uninhabited island out in the ocean with her powers way out of control. She fell unconscious before I could reach her and had to bring her back here to the tower." Beast Boy said.

"Do you happen to know why she went out towards the ocean in the first place then?" Robin said as he continued to interrogate Beast Boy.

"Dude! Didn't you hear what I said?! I left her alone so she could cool off! I got her really mad at me this time, so I stayed away from her for once in my life!" Beast Boy shouted back in anger at his leader.

"And why should we believe that! How do we know you aren't the cause for… this!" he shouted as he pointed towards Raven's floating body which was still above the gurney.

The changeling looked at him in shock. 'What happened?! Why is he so angry at me!? And why are Starfire and Cyborg not even trying to calm him down?!'

"How could I be responsible for that Robin! I just told you about what I know that's happened! Twice!"

"Then tell me, where were you at while you supposedly let her calm down then?!" Robin shouted back.

"Simple, I was in the park." Beast Boy growled back.

"And was there anyone there who could vouch for you?"

Silence "Well Beast Boy. I'm waiting."

"No." Beast Boy glumly replied.

"What did you say?" Robin asked again.

"I said no! I wasn't in view of anyone while I was in the park!" Beast Boy shouted back angrily. Wondering why Robin was even doing this to him in the first place. 'He knows I'd never hurt Raven... right?'

"Well then, I'm afraid we'll have to put you into one of our containment cells until Raven wakes up then to vouch for you." Robin stated.

Beast Boy looked at him in shock. "What the hell are you talking about! I didn't do anything to Raven! Why won't you believe me when I say that we just had a fight and I left her alone!"

"Because the last time she was floating on this gurney was because of you Beast Boy! Not Cyborg! Not Starfire! Not me! YOU!" he roared back in fury.

"HOW MANY TIMES DO ME AND HER HAVE TO TELL YOU! I NEVER HURT RAVEN WHILE IN MY BEAST FORM! I DIDN'T DO IT BACK THEN! AND I CERTAINLY DIDN'T DO IT NOW!" Beast Boy yelled back in fury.

"I've had it with this! Cyborg! Take him to the containment cells! Starfire! You'll be making his meals until Raven wakes up!" Robin ordered in a loud voice as he turned around and walked out the door.

"WAIT! PLEASE DON'T LISTEN TO HIM CY! I KNOW THAT YOU KNOW THAT I'D NEVER HURT RAVEN!"

But he said nothing. He just followed Robin's orders as he carried the thrashing changeling towards the exit of the infirmary.

"Starfire! PLEASE!" Beast Boy tried. Afraid of her cooking.

But she just stood there. Unflinching. None of her usual joy to be found in her eyes.

That was when he lost it as he cocked his head towards the ceiling.

"RAVEN!"

Then all became dark.

Beast Boy suddenly sat up straight. He was blinking his eyes rapidly. He was trying to figure out what had happened to him for a moment. And that was when he heard it.

Beep...Beep...Beep...Beep...Beep…

Raven's heartbeat monitor. 'So… it was only… a dream?' The changeling slowly blinked the light out of his eyes. He found that he was still sitting in his chair by the gurney. Raven was still there, floating above it a few inches, still deep in her healing trance. And there was no sign of the other Titans in the room either.

'Oh yeah… Brother Blood was on the loose in Steele City again. So the others can't come back since Cyborg is the only one that can both withstand his mind control abilities.' His brain corrected for him.

The changeling let out a sigh of relief. Realizing what he had just experienced was only a nightmare, albeit an unusual one from what he usually had. He started checking over Raven's vitals as he made sure that she was okay and not in any danger of anything. Seeing that everything was okay, he smiled slightly to himself and looked at the clock.

It was 3 P.M. now. It had now officially been over a day since he had gotten Raven back to the tower and she had entered her healing trance. This slightly worried the changeling since she had never been in a healing trance for this long before, at least that he knew of. But this was Raven, everything about her was different from other people. Including superheroes. That had been one of the things he found that he liked about her.

Realizing there wasn't really anything he could do for now, Beast Boy decided to head out of the infirmary for a little bit so he could get himself something to eat as his belly was rumbling in the worst way possible for an empty stomach. With that in mind, Beast Boy walked out of the infirmary and headed up towards the kitchen in Titan's Tower. Making a last minute decision to also make a sandwich and some tea for Raven in case she waked up while he was away from the infirmary.

About fifteen minutes later, Beast Boy came back into the infirmary. Holding a tofu sandwich for himself and a PB and J sandwich for Raven. He was also holding a bottle of water for himself and a hot cup of tea for her. But he was slightly disappointed to find that she was still silently floating above the bed, oblivious to the outside world around her as she healed herself.

Beast Boy sat quietly in the chair next to her. Silently eating the tofu sandwich in his hands. A couple minutes later, it was gone and resting in his stomach. He drank from his bottle of water now and then before setting it back down onto the ground beside him. He still stayed in his seat, keeping his gaze focused on the pale floating empath in front of him. Checking for the signs that would indicate she was coming out of her healing trance.

'You know... I never really noticed till now just how peaceful she looks like this. How the sunlight makes her hair look like a cascade of amethysts surrounding her beautiful face. Not scrunched up from holding back all those emotions that she thinks would threaten those around her.'

Sigh 'I wonder... does she like me... does she look at me the way I look at her when she's not looking... or does she really hate me as she claims? If only I could read her mind... wait. Can't she do that? Would that mean she knows how I feel about her? Sigh... Why is this so confusing to me!'

He stayed by her side for the next few hours. Raven, was still just floating there, while Beast Boy kept his silent vigil from his seat. Although his mind was far from silent. Outside, the sun sank below the horizon and the stars came out in the dark sky overhead. There was no moon to be found that night, making it extremely dark to everyone except the changeling in the room.

Beast Boy still watched her. Entranced by the floating beauty in front of him. All he could think about was her. Did he like her? Of course he liked her. He had liked her for such a long time, ever since he had made her smile and laugh on the shore of this island. He could never gather enough courage to tell her though, mainly because he was afraid she would flat out reject him. Maybe even laugh in his face, thinking it was a great joke from him for once. Only, it wouldn't be a joke to him when he finally told her. Which brought him to his other reason for not saying it all these years. He hadn't want his heart to be hurt again. The way Terra had hurt him so badly in the past.

Sleep, was slowly, finally sneaking up on the green changeling. His mind still filled with thoughts about Raven. He wondered if he'd have a good dream about her this time and not another nightmare. But just as his head was starting to lean forward, his breathing starting to slow down, he faintly heard Raven's body float down onto the mattress as she finally finished with healing herself. This grabbed Beast Boy's undivided attention as he roused himself from his stupor and watched her to make sure that she was okay again.

Slowly, Raven started to come out of that peaceful, meditative spot she had inside her mind when she needed to gather her thoughts on something. Blinking a little, she slowly opened up her eyes, expecting to be back on the island in the ocean. But it was so dark to her, that she couldn't even tell where she was at at first. Wherever she was at, it couldn't have been the island. Her first clue being the mattress she was lying on, it was soft to the touch so she instantly knew she wasn't laying on the ground anymore. She tried to move around a little to examine her surroundings when she finally felt the wires that were connecting her to several different machines. And then she finally heard a sound that she hadn't realized before now.

Beep...Beep...Beep...Beep...Beep…

The heartbeat monitor. She was back in the Titan's Infirmary. She moved again, this time pulling off the different wires from herself and sitting herself up to look around her. The heartbeat monitor flat lined after she had disconnected herself from it letting out a continuous stream of annoying sound. Not being able to stand the sound, she used her powers and pulled the plug powering the device as it finally stopped making that sound, allowing her to focus. She still couldn't see anything in the darkness that surrounded all around her.

'Why is everything so dark in here? Is this another nightmare or something? The last thing I remember was losing control of my powers on an island out in the Pacific… but why did that even happen in the first place. I usually keep control of my powers unless something extreme happens… Oh no!'

Just like that, the memories of yesterday came back to Raven full force. Her Rage throwing an unconscious Beast Boy far out into the ocean, the talk she'd had with her emotions, along with the realization that Beast Boy still hadn't come back. Then flying, diving into the ocean, finding his communicator down on the ocean bottom, and then feeling like her heart had been crushed into pieces from what she'd done. Finding out that she'd had feelings for him. Finding out, after, she thought she had found he was dead. Feelings she had been afraid to have, ever since the incident with an evil dragon trapped in a book. Yet she'd had felt them for Beast Boy.

'She's unhooking herself from the wires. Why can't she seem to realize I'm right here though? Is it really that dark to her or something? Wait, why is she tensing up now, did she finally sense I'm here? Wait, why is... is she scared!' Beast Boy thought to himself.

Raven tried to get off the bed, the shock and pain she was trying to hide from her face clearly showing in her amethyst eyes. That was when green hands suddenly grabbed her by the shoulders out of the darkness and she heard a voice come out, his voice.

"Raven. It's okay... your safe now." Beast Boy said to her. Having seen the shock and fear in her eyes.

She looked up his arms, trying to see if they were real or not, or just part of some dream in her mind. But the darkness still hid him past his biceps from her vision. She still said nothing out of fear of this not being real. That he wasn't real still.

"Rae… Please... I need you to calm down for me."

'He isn't really alive… is he… even if he was I can't like him. Who knows what my powers would do to him… if he's alive that is… is he alive for real... or is my mind playing tricks with me... well, guess there's only one way for me to find out for sure.'

That was when Raven pulled her hand back and aimed for where she thought his face was. Her aim was true as her punch hit him straight on his nose, Beast Boy giving a very unmanly "Ow!" as he fell backwards onto the ground, his face clutched in his hands.

"What the hell was that for!" Beast Boy said while still clutching his face in agony.

Raven used the first excuse that came to her mind. "For calling me Rae." She said in her monotone voice. Erasing the shock and fear from herself as he slowly recovered. But on the inside it was a totally different story for the empath.

'He's alive! I didn't really kill him! I punched him a little too hard on his nose there! But who cares! He's still alive!' she was shouting in her mind. On the outside, she stayed her old, emotionless self.

Meanwhile Beast Boy was still moaning in pain on the ground, his hands covering his face. 'What the hell! First she loses control of her powers for some weird reason, and now she wakes up and breaks my nose just for calling her Rae as if nothing happened! I'll never understand her… But I guess that's also one thing I like about her. Mysterious.'

Finally pulling his hands away, Raven, finally being able to see a little better in the dark, saw that she had broken his nose. "Here, let me fix that." she simply said as she hovered her hands above his face and activated her blue healing magic.

Beast Boy let out a sigh of relief as his bones slowly knit back together and moved back to their original spot. "Thanks… but why are you healing it?" he asked her, curious since she had been the one to break it in the first place.

She shrugged her shoulders, hiding the fact that she had been horrified to see what she had done to his face. "I punched you way to hard for what you said, so I thought that I should at least fix my mistake." she stated, still in her monotone voice.

Beast Boy tried his best to hide the hurt he felt from her statement. Made worse by the fact that she sounded as emotionless as a brick. "Oh… well… in case you wanted to know… Sigh… it's been over a day since I… well… found you having an incident." he said pausing here and there as he spoke.

Raven didn't let the surprise she felt show. "Anything else I should know about?" she asked (in the same dead tone).

"Well… in case you were hungry… I made you a sandwich and some tea earlier."

She raised an eyebrow at him. "Are they any good now?" she asked him (do I have to add monotone to these? Or should I just say when her voice changes?).

"Heh… no... not really, I made them hours ago… so I don't think you'd want them now." he finished looking lamely towards the floor.

"It's fine, Beast Boy. I'm not even hungry anyways."

This made the changeling look up in confusion. "You've been out of it for over a day. How are you not hungry, or thirsty?"

"When I'm in my healing trance, my metabolism stops almost completely. It Allows me to heal for a long time without having to stop for food or water."

It looked like Beast Boy understood what she'd said as he nodded in understanding. "Okay, that makes sense, but I still need to ask. What happened to you yesterday?"

'Crap! I was really hoping he wouldn't ask me that question. How do you tell someone you thought you accidentally killed them and then realized you liked them in the first place. Hey Beast Boy, well I kind of thought I killed you yesterday and realized I had feelings for you. So do you want to go out?' No, she wasn't going to say that. She decided to be careful with her answer and not reveal to much.

"I just lost control of my powers yesterday Beast Boy. I was experiencing a build up of emotions inside me and I had to let them out in an area where no one would've been hurt." Raven said, at least managing to hide part of the truth.

"Oh… I guess that would explain a lot then."

'I wonder what emotions she was experiencing when she lost control. It probably wouldn't be a good idea to ask Raven about that though. I'll just have to wait and see if she'll tell me about it or not some other time.'

"Raven… I…" she looked at him. With the same blank gaze.

Sigh "I'm sorry… if what happened yesterday…" he looked like he wanted to continue. But instead he closed his mouth. After a couple seconds, he spoke again.

"It's late. I shouldn't be keeping you up any longer."

Raven still stood there. A blank look on her face. "Well... night… Raven." he said as he turned around and walked towards the door.

'She does hate me after all… doesn't she.'

Just before he walked our the door though, he finally heard her speak. "I'm sorry."

He turned around in the doorway. Confusion clearly written on his face. "I'm sorry that I let my Rage get the better of me yesterday, that I took it out on you." she continued.

"Why should you be sorry Raven? I pissed you off yesterday when I should have just left you alone to meditate."

Sigh "Beast Boy… I overreacted yesterday to what you'd said, okay. I should be the one who should be apologizing for my actions, not you."

He finally let a small smile show. "Raven, if I hadn't decided to be an idiot in the first place, you wouldn't have had a reason to be mad at me."

"But I overreacted Beast Boy! Don't you get it! I let my rage out and it acted on you!" Raven said while finally raising her voice with anger in it.

"But I'm still okay. I'm alive and breathing here. Nothing bad happened to me from it."

'Except I thought that I had killed you. And realized that I had harbored feelings for you.' Raven thought.

"I need to meditate." she said instead. Before Beast Boy could say anything else, she dropped into the floor through one of her black portals.

Beast Boy stood there. Staring dumbfounded at the spot where she had just been.

'I could have sworn I saw something after I said nothing bad happened to me. Does that mean that something bad had happened to me without me realizing it?'

Beast Boy looked around himself. Making sure she wasn't in the room anymore.

'Sigh... I'm still to tired to think about this right now. Besides, Raven doesn't really care about me. I'm just a thorn in her side. And that's all I'll ever be to her. There's no way she has feelings for me... right?'

Pause

'Maybe I should try and leave her alone for a while. Knowing me, I'll just make her pissed off at me for some weird reason or another.'

With that, Beast Boy left the infirmary. Intent on getting a good night's rest this time. If only he didn't have her on his mind.

Author's Notes:

All right. I finally kicked my sickness in the butt and I'm healthy again. Bad news, school has finally decided to make me busy for once in my life. I'm still in the middle of designing a website for my programming class to present this Friday! And now I have more Calculus homework, a group project in Personal Finance, and I have to read "Unbroken" and answer questions in English! Holy Crap! I didn't even know what homework really was before this week! I'm one of those kids who gets everything done in class and now I'm having to work on this stuff at home! Plus a Senior Project (why the hell do we need that to graduate)! I've barely found time to type as it is! I was even going to post an update for "I'm Sorry" along with this, but I can't because I'M STILL WORKING ON IT!

Okay, now that that's out of my system. Hope you enjoyed this update! Yeah, I know, a little harsh with the dream scene. And Rae punched poor BB in the face! And they both obviously like each other (yet somehow not even Raven, the empath, knows it). There'll be drama, there'll be fluff, there'll be angst, question is though. Will this end with Romance, or Tragedy?

Till Next Time
