Chapter 11: Vanishing Grace

Beast Boy told her everything. After he would say something, he would look at her, as if asking for permission to carry on. She would nod each time and he would continue.

"So that's basically it," he said with a nervous smile. "Please don't be mad; I'm sorry I didn't tell you sooner."

"I'm not mad," she replied, pinching her nose. "Well, I'm not mad at you. I'm mad at her. Myself, too. I just knew there was something off about her; why didn't I just listen to my instincts? Why did I let my guard down again?"

"Don't go blaming yourself. Why didn't you say anything, though? Robin would've wanted to know if you had any suspicions," he said, standing up.

"I can feel emotions from others. I can't read their minds. I assumed that the bad aura I was getting from her was something to do with her past life."

"What about her past life?" he asked.

"I don't know. She was homeless when we found her, I thought maybe she had been abandoned as a child or something like that."

"That's resonable I guess," he said, scratching the back of his head. "Listen, about eariler-"

"Save it. I know what you're going to say, and I don't want to hear it. Let's just solve one problem at a time, okay?"

"Well, alright. But I'm not dropping the subject anytime soon," he replied, crossing his arms.

"Noted. I need to talk to you about Garth."

"Garth?"

"Aqualad," she said, rolling her eyes. "He's coming over."

"What? Why?"

"He wants to speak to you."

"About what?"

"What do you think?"

"The kiss?" he asked, his eyes widening.

"The kiss," she replied.

"Oh. What time will he be here?"

"I don't know but he said he'll be here by tomorrow. I would be more worried if I were you. He said, and I quote, 'I'm going to give that little goblin a piece of my mind.'"

"Why should I be worried? Do you think I'm scared of him?"

"Well, no, but I assumed you'd be more-"

"Wait, wait, wait. You do, don't you? You think I'm scared of Aqualad," he said, his tone and expression unreadable.

"I know that you don't exactly tolerate him. I never stated that you feared him in any way."

"But you said I should be worried," he replied, raising an eyebrow.

"Yes, I did. Robin will have your ass if you cause tension between-"

"Cool. Just know this, Raven," he said, leaning over so he was in her face. "I'm not the tiniest bit scared of your water-breathing boyfriend, and if he wants to give me a piece of his mind, then tell him I'm free all week."

She opened her mouth to reply but he silenced her by pressing his lips against hers. He closed his eyes and she could only watch as he settled into the kiss, his mouth moving with hers.

She knew this was wrong, but she just couldn't stop herself from kissing back. His reaction to Aqualad's threat only made her more attracted to him.

He mumbled her name between her lips as she grabbed his collar and pulled him down onto her bed, both of their giggles muffled by each other's lips.

Her powers were going crazy. Almost everything in her room was shattering or exploding, but neither of them seemed to notice.

Or maybe they just didn't care.
