things will come around 2

(Raven)
I wonder what he wants to say. Something important enough it to distract him from his video games, but obviously private, he stopped when Cyborg came in, who leaves to go back to the T-car almost immediately afterwards.
What is it he needs to say?
I try to distract myself by reading my book, but my eyes keep wandering to him. He doesn't seem invested in his video game, he keeps loosing, and he doesn't get irritated. Unusual.
I just get fricking fed up with it, "Alright Beast Boy, what is it?"
He just shifts uncomfortably and pauses the game. His emerald eyes drift over to me. "It's, uhh, it's nothing."
"It's obviously not nothing, you're on edge about something, what is it?"
He just sits there, staring at me with an unreadable look. I sigh, "I'll make you some tea, maybe that'll calm you down." I wait for the comments of how my tea was gross, but he just is quiet, and looks at me as I go to the kitchen. Eventually, I hear the game turn back on.
After putting the water in a kettle (what can I say, I like the novelty) I stand opposite the stove, waiting for it to boil.
I turn around to the sound of someone clearing their throat, it's Beast Boy. He is on the other side of the bar-thing we have. He looks at me with a sheepish smile and says, "Um, Raven, thanks for the offer but tea won't help me with what's bothering me."
I mutter "Could have told me that sooner." Then I speak louder so he could hear, "Then what will?"
His eyes shifted around, as her walked around the bar…

(Beast Boy)
I try to keep my cool as I walk around the bar. I quite possibly just lost my mind. I stop right in front of her, our faces inches away, my heart in my throat. "This will."

(Raven)
He kisses me. I don't mean just a little peck, a real kiss.
I'm so surprised, I almost jump back but I stop myself and ease into the kiss. Our arms entwine around each other, pulling us even closer in what I can only describe as the few perfect moments in my life. He smells nice, like a combination of animal musk, pine trees, and some cinnamon-y tint as well.
After a good thirty seconds, our lips break apart and we stare into each other's eyes. Beast Boy leans forward, putting his forehead against mine, and says, almost at a whisper, "I have to tell you, I love you, I have loved you since we first met."
My heart nearly stops. He loves me.
He loves me.
Can I say it back?
Yes.
"I love you too." We go in for another kiss, longer, and more passionate.
Once we surface for air again, I lean my head against his-
REEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
Oh yeah, the tea kettle. We unravel from one another, I turn off the stove and I pour some steaming water into a tea cup. The water is followed by a tea bag. I do this all with a ridiculous grin and blush, side effects of the kiss. I turn back to Beast Boy to see he was affected the same way.

"Uh, Raven?"
"Yeah?" She responds tentatively, I could understand why. We just made out and now I'm asking a question.
"Um, would you like to go out sometime? Maybe, like, Friday?"
She nods "I would love to go out on Friday." I could die an insanely happy man right now.
"YES!" I shout, pumping my arm. Then I stop, another question pulling up in my head. "I have a question, are we like, boyfriend/girlfriend, or is that only when dating, cause we just had those amazing kisses, and would that automatically make us boyfriend/girlfriend especially since we love each other, or-" She cuts me off by putting her hand over my mouth. Thank god, I was going on a ramble.
"Calm down, you were going nuts." She pauses, then says, "I would consider myself your girlfriend, and you my boyfriend."
"Cool." I rub my chin, "Can I call you Rae?"
"Only if I can call you Gar."
"Deal." I lean back against the bar. "Wait 'till we tell the others-"
"NO!" Raven shouts, catching me off guard, I nearly fall over.
"Wha-why?"
"Think about this, they're some of the most over bearing, overly-involved people ever. You know that they'll be instantly involved in our relationship, and though we," She blushes furiously, "love each other, they could crash us like the Hindenburg. Cyborg would be giving us crap, because we used to 'hate' each other. Robin and Star will think we're woefully unprepared and will be constantly giving us ridiculous relationship advice that could not work for us whatsoever."
Whoa, she's right. Cyborg will totally start on us since we used to 'hate' each other, and the Robin-Starfire couple will think we're unprepared for a relationship.
"Then when do we tell them?"
"When we know our relationship is developed enough to defend against them."
"So never?"
She laughed slightly, making that two in one day. "Possibly."
I sigh, and on  a whim, I pull Raven into a hug, "I love you."
