Chapter 3:
Stupid Beast Boy. Stupid Humping... STUPID BEAST BOY!
Why do I have to be so Fucking attracted to that stupid green ball of fur. I mean who cares if his hair is perfectly spiky, or that he is as tall as the Eiffel Tower, or as strong as... oh, hell... those people who are overly strong for a reason that I will never understand... bodybuilders? I think that's right... he's as strong as a bodybuilder, but he's skinny, but not too skinny that it's unattractive. I mean when has Beast Boy ever been unattractive? I have always liked his hair spiky, and I like how tall he is, and that he is strong and I bet he is as hung as the Washington Monument.
Stop it, Raven! This is a rant about Beast Boy's sexy actions, not how sexy Beast Boy is. I mean what is wrong with him? How dare he tease me, turning me on and making me blush. And all of that was so I would call him Beast Man instead of Beast Boy. I mean why does he have to Screw with me like that? I mean not screw like sex, screw like mess with... Why am I defending the language that no one else can hear but me? That's just plain silly. Though it would be nice to be to be screwed by Beast Boy. Having his thick member penetrate one of my three holes, his hands clawing at my skin, and biting every inch of my flesh and digging his claws-
STOP IT, RAVEN! Oh, Azar, what's wrong with my? I have had sex on my brain everyday for nearly two weeks now. Damn my demon nature, it must be mating season again, I have got to write that shit down. I hate mating season, it always messes with my mind, and makes it dirtier then look at him! He is just sitting there, engulfing the popcorn and watching this half-porn movie.
Well, I shouldn't say that. It has, what, roughly ten stories that eventually intertwine with each other and there is only one couple is pretending to have sex while being completely naked. It could easily be a PG-13 movie without that couple. In fact, it wouldn't really change the story at all. I mean why have a couple like that if they weren't important to the story line? That doesn't make sense.
Raven gently reached over and tapped Beast Boy's arm with her hand and he looked at her.
"I don't get it. Why are those two... actors... in this movie?" She asked and Beast Boy furrowed his brow.
"What do you mean?" He asked and Raven almost smiled.
"I mean, look at them. The girl is naked on top of the guy and they are talking about the prime minister as if they were talking over a cup of coffee. I mean I think the guy that's giving them directions is the same guy that's friends with that Colin guy who wants to go to America, but other then that they have no other connection to the other stories. Sure Colin was a waiter and/or server at that wedding but that wasn't much." She said and Beast Boy smiled.
"Man, could you use the word 'guy' even more?" He asked and Raven blinked.
"Huh... I guess I did use that word a bit in that statement." She said embarrassed at how she must have sounded. Why did she just ramble as if she was talking to herself? She wasn't alone, she was with Beast Boy and information in his hands was dangerous.
Not that I am actually with Beast Boy and even though his hands could be dangerous, they weren't hers. Not that I truly wanted him... Ok, I do, but he doesn't want me. I mean why would he, how could he, what would he do to me, and why is he staring at me?
She wondered as she looked at him.
"Let me guess. You were deep in thought and you didn't hear me." He asked and Raven blushed a little.
"I'm sorry, Beast Boy." She said and he smiled at her.
"That's ok." He said and Raven gave him a small smile, though it was more to show him that she was glad that he wasn't mad at her, then anything else.
"So what did you say?" She asked and Beast Boy laughed.
"Just that they probably have that couple because A, they couldn't decide on whether they should have a shy couple or one that has sex all the time, or B, they didn't have enough room for a shy couple and a sexy couple." Beast Boy kindly repeated and Raven nodded.
"Alright... or... or maybe C, they thought it would be clever/funny to have a shy couple who saw each other naked everyday... or D, they needed more room on the disc so they just created that couple." Raven added and Beast Boy grinned.
"Maybe there are some bonus features that we could watch and they can tell us the answer." He stated and with a shrug from Raven they returned to the movie.

"Hey, Rae, what does elitist mean?" Beast Boy asked and Raven glanced at him.
"It means that I should buy you a dictionary." Raven said and Beast Boy chuckled.
"Oh, come on, Mama, why should I get a dictionary when it's faster to ask the smartest person I know." Beast Boy said and Raven rolled her eyes.
"First of all, so you wouldn't have to ask people what things mean. Second, elitist is a person who believes that a system or society should be ruled or dominated by an elite, but he is using that word to describe the word 'snobby'. So when he says 'It seems elitist and wrong' he basically means 'It seems snobby and wrong'." Raven explains and Beast Boy nods.
"Way to go prime minister, offer to kill the asshole that called her fat." Beast Boy said with a grin and Raven tried not to laugh.

"Hey, what about that rock star there? He has put out a Christmas album but appears to have no love interest. Why is he in a movie called Love Actually? Where is the logic in that?" Raven asked and Beast Boy reached over, grabbed her chin and carefully made her look at him.
"I guess we'll just have to wait and see, my lovely. It's still early an' I bet they give him a love interest or explain why he's there." Beast Boy said in a British accent before letting go of her.
"I thought you've seen this before?" Raven asked and Beast Boy shook his head.
"No, I walked in on a movie date that Robin and Star were having. I was fixing a snack when those naked actors came on the screen so that's how I knew about them." Beast Boy explained and Raven nodded.
"So I should probably stay quiet, huh?" Raven asked, almost sheepishly and Beast Boy grinned.
"I like hearing what you have to say. Besides the subtitles are on so it's not like we would be missing much." Beast Boy said happily and Raven turned her head slightly, away from Beast Boy and allowed herself to smile sweetly.

"Ok, hold up, why would that woman get a maid that couldn't speak English? How are they suppose to communicate? How will she know what to clean or where things go?" Beast Boy asked and Raven had to resist the urge to smile, again.
"Body language I suppose." Raven said and Beast Boy shot her a questioning look.
"How is body language going to help without actual language?" He asked and Raven looked at him.
"Actually it can be quite effective. Did you know that body language makes up about 90% of communication between friends and nearly 100% of communication between strangers?" Raven asked and Beast Boy smiled.
"I didn't know that. Is there anything that you don't know?" Beast Boy asked.
Your dick inside me. Damn it, Raven, Stop That! Raven thought, instantly.
"Of course. There are many things that I do not know, and somethings that I will never know, and this is natural." Raven said and Beast Boy looked like he wanted to ask a followup question, but he didn't.

"Ha Ha! Way to go Prime Minister! Kick that jerk out of your country!" Beast Boy exclaimed.
"You do realize that jerk is the president of the United States and we live in the United States." Raven kindly reminded him and Beast Boy blinked then blushed.
"Oh... yeah... you're right. I kind of forgot about that." Beast Boy said and Raven bit her lip a little to prevent another smile.

"You know it's kind of funny how the writer and the maid can talk about the same subjects without understanding each other." Raven said.
"I know, but I think it's really sweet." Beast Boy commented.

"Wow, 'Do not switch off' click." Beast Boy said with a grin.

"Oh, my... Azar." Raven said breathlessly.
"That's just..." Beast Boy started.
"So beautiful and sad..." Raven continued.
"And he loves her so much."
"But they can never be together."
"Because she loves someone else."
"And he knew that from the start.
"Poor guy."
"That was a little heartbreaking." Raven finished and Beast Boy gently wrapped his arm around her shoulders.
"Don't be sad." Beast Boy said in a voice that was so sincere that she didn't push him off.
If he really cares about my happiness then I shouldn't make him mad by basically rejecting him comforting of me. Raven thought logically.

"Wait, what happened to Natalie?" Beast Boy asked and Raven contorted her face in confusion.
"They redistributed her, remember?" Raven said and Beast Boy hesitated.
"You do know what the word redistribute means, right Beast Boy?" Raven asked and Beast Boy pursed his lips, not wanting to answer."
"Redistribute means that they moved her somewhere else in the building, so he wouldn't have to see her everyday, and with that whole situation with the president, she would be safer and away from him as well." Raven explained and Beast Boy's eyes widened.
"Oh." He said quietly.

"Ooo, nice music video." Beast Boy cooed and Raven rolled her eyes in disgust.

Raven tried not to laugh, but it half-escaped through her nose and Beast Boy looked at her.
"That poor dad." She explained as she tried to look and sound emotionless.

Soon the movie showed a couple on the dance floor and the song changes to a slow, romantic song and Raven nearly froze. Something about that scene just seemed so emotional, sweet and full of romance, or at least a romantic feeling.
Is it that perhaps Sarah is shy like I am and that's why this scene is hitting a nerve. Is it the fact that we both have been in love with our crushes for years? At least it's not romantic and sad like that wedding video. Raven thought before shooting a glance at Beast Boy.
I wonder what it would be like to dance with Beast Boy. He's so much taller then me and my head could lay on his chest if we danced to a slow song. Beast Boy has probably never danced to a slow song before, heck he probably doesn't know how to dance to a slow song.
But... It would still be nice... dancing to the slow song... having the music fill our heads... being pressed together... sharing in each other's warmth... his arms holding me, protectively... shielding me from the cruel world... and I hug him gently... taking deep breaths of his cologne and his affection... Oh, Raven you're doing it again... you're getting your hopes up for a reality that will never exist... why do you have to hurt yourself like that?

"Ha, look how excited she is about having sex." Beast Boy said.
"And now she has to clean her room." Raven said. They were both silent as the couple started to kiss and undress.
Look at how gentle he is with her. That must be nice. Raven thought,
"Not busy?" Beast Boy said disgustingly, and Raven glanced at him. After a moment, Beast boy looked at the screen in slight regret and sadness.
"I guess some people have more complicated lived then ours." Raven said once she noticed Beast Boy's arm subconsciously squeeze her shoulders a little. After a few minutes they switch back to Sarah and Beast Boy's ears fell.
"I guess you're right."

"Azar, Mia is a slut. He really should be careful around her, especially if he wants to stay married to his wife." Raven said and Beast Boy nodded.
"Yeah. I mean yes, Mia is young and attractive, but he doesn't seem like the guy that normally goes around, looking for people to sleep around with." Beast Boy says.
"True. But there is a great power in suggestion and opportunity and men are easy victims to it." Raven said and Beast Boy scoffed.
"You act like we always fall for those simple tricks. As if a smile of fluttering your eyes can truly render any man to the power of your will." Beast Boy said and Raven scoffed this time.
"You act like you're immune to things that you call 'simple tricks' when you would go crazy for them as well." Raven said and Beast Boy paused the movie and looked at her.
"What is that suppose to mean?" Beast Boy asked and Raven rolled her eyes.
"Oh please, you are the worst one. You, Beast Boy, fall in love with every girl that shows a little interest in you." Raven says and Beast Boy dropped his jaw.
"Ok, that's not true." He said and Raven looked at him."
"You fell in love with Blackfire, every fan you have ever had, that pink cat creature girl made out of ink, not to mention all of those Japanese girls-"
"Ok, stop, I liked all those girls, sure, but I can't say that I loved them." Beast Boy said, taking his arm off her and crossing them over his chest.
No, you loved Terra and she broke your heart. Raven thought and she quickly scoffed.
"Still they can bat their eyes and twirl their hair and you just melt and turn into a puddle before them." Raven said and Beast Boy nearly growled.
"That's not true." He said and Raven knew that he was getting more emotional then he should and her anger would only make it worse. Raven started to fan her face with her hand and blew air out slowly.
"Man, why is this room always so warm?" Raven asked and Beast Boy blinked in confusion.
"What? What do you mean, warm?" He asked and Raven tilted her head back, exposing her neck and letting her back arch slightly.
"Warm as in temperature, idiot. It gets so hot in this room." Raven complained before she reached up and unhooked her cloak and let it fall on the floor. Beast Boy's eyes widened when he saw her do this, though it was more out of surprise then anything else.
"Uh, Rae...?" He said unsure of what to say or do. Raven turned her head lazily to look at him and her hand 'accidentally' bumped his and she gasped.
"Oh, Azar your hands are cold." Raven said as she picked up his hand and placed it on the back of her neck.
"Oh, Azar!" She moaned blissfully, she attempted to reach the other hand but she couldn't quite reach it. Beast Boy watched in amazement as Raven quickly straddled him, grabbed his other hand, placed it on her leg and made it rub slowly from her knee, to her thigh, then back to her knee.
"Oh." She cooed as she continued this motion and Beast Boy sat and stared.
What is happening? Why is she doing this? Is she just that hot that she doesn't realize what she is doing? But why is she doing this now, I mean hasn't she been hot before? Well, this is hot, but a different kind of hot, I meant temperature hot, not that she was never attractive in the past, but I meant temperature this time. Beast Boy mind rambled and Raven wasn't surprised when she saw the confusion on his face.
Way to go, Raven, now time for the icing on the cake. She thought as she leaned closer to Beast Boy. She slowly blinked her eyes, gave him a seductive smile and wrapped her arms around his neck. They sat there for a moment in silence, though Beast Boy still held and rubbed the hot creature before him and they could feel each others warm breath on their lips. Then Raven lovingly rubbed her nose against the bridge of his and purred softly. It was at this point that Beast Boy's mind began to catch up and analyze the situation at hand.
"I... you... why... how...?" Beast Boy stuttered as he tried to form full sentences.
Right on Que. Raven thought with a knowing grin.
"Is something wrong, Beast..." Raven paused to pull away and look into his eyes.
"Man?" She finished as her smile grew. Beast Boy's eyes widened when he heard that word. Then he swallowed hard and blushed deeply.
Jackpot! Raven thought happily when she saw the blush.
"Can I ask you a question?" Raven asked seductively and Beast Boy slowly nodded. Raven then leaned in and let the hot air of her breath tickle his ear.
"Now that you have proven my point, can we finish the movie?" Raven whispered before pulling away to see Beast Boy's, once again, confused face.
"What are you talking- Holy Fuck, You're Cold!" Beast Boy shouted as his hands flew off Raven.
"See, you fall for anyone who gives you attention. You even became victim to me, a girl you would never be interested in dating. Hell, if I can make you melt then anyone can." Raven said as she got off him, pout her cloak back on and resumed her place on the blanket.
"Whatever, but how did you suddenly get so cold?" Beast Boy asked and Raven shrugged.
"It's nothing special really. I just made my blood boil a little, which raised my body's temperature and made me feel like it's 110 degrees in the shade." Raven explained nonchalantly. Beast Boy picked up the remote and was about to press play when a thought occurred to him.
"You made your blood boil. Wouldn't that hurt?" Beast Boy asked and Raven could sense his concern.
"It hurt a little at first but not long. Besides I did it to prove a point and I'm fine now, so just play the movie." Raven said in a bored tone but she silently hoped that it would make him feel better. Beast Boy didn't say anything but he did hesitate before pressing the play button again.

"Yeah, you can always tell when the characters are going to the 'still friendly transitional stage' with the choice of music they play in the background." Raven said and Beast Boy smiled.
"Yeah, but movies aren't nearly as entertaining without the music." Beast Boy stated and Raven nodded.
"I completely agree, I mean if you mute the tv and put on subtitles on then it's just not as good. I mean even if your deaf and you mute the tv then you can't even sense the vibrations of the tv that the music would normally make." Raven said and Beast Boy glanced at her.
"Can deaf people really sense vibrations from a tv?" Beast Boy asked and Raven blinked.
"I always thought they could, but to be completely honest, I don't know. It probably depends on the speaker because I know they can sense vibrations at a concert but the music is so loud, but a regular tv at their house? I'll probably have to look that up now." Raven said, almost embarrassed at her lack of knowledge.
"Well, when you know, tell me." Beast Boy said innocently.

"Do you actually think Colin will do well in America?" Beast Boy asked and Raven shrugged. Women do tend to be more attracted to guys with accents. I did ask one girl what the obsession was about and she said 'Men with accents are exotic' then she said that if you become friends with or in a serious relationship with someone with an accent, then you have a higher chance of visiting their hometown." Raven said and Beast Boy rolled his eyes.
"So he is going to bring an American girl back to England?" Beast Boy asked almost uninterested.
"Well, your guess is as good as mine." Raven said and Beast Boy smiled.
"Wanna have a bet?" Beast Boy asked and Raven rose an eyebrow and looked at him.
"What bet?" She asked and Beast Boy's smiled grew.
"If Colin brings back an American girl, then I'll get you a soda." He said but he sighed when he saw her glare.
"Fine, Rae, If he brings an American girl back to England then I'll make you a cup of tea." He corrected and Raven almost smiled.
"That's better, and if Colin comes back to England alone then I'll get you a soda, because you like soda." Raven said with a small smirk and held out her hand.
"Deal." Beast Boy said shaking her hand to seal their silly bet.

"You know I don't thin I have ever heard Joni Mitchell before this movie, but... This song sounds pretty good... and appropriate for this scene." Raven said quietly and Beast Boy nodded.
"Well then maybe you should buy a Joni Mitchell CD and listen to it." Beast Boy whispered back.

"Look at them. They have seen each other naked every day and they are nervous with kissing?" Raven said.
"Well there's the kiss." Beast Boy said.
"Could she say a more cheesy line?" Raven asked with a small smile.
"Probably." Beast Boy muttered. Then Raven gave a small laugh at the man's reaction to the kiss and Beast Boy snapped his neck to look at her.
"Sorry." Raven quickly said.
"What was that?" Beast Boy said unable to stop his surprised smile.
"Oh, cut me some slack. The man jumped the last four stairs because they kissed and she returns his feelings." Raven said defensively.

"I hate uncle Jamie, I hate uncle Jamie." Beast Boy mocked and Raven rolled her eyes playfully and hit his arm with her hand. Beast Boy rubbed his arm and laughed.

Finally back to Sarah and Karl. Raven thought to herself and she watched the screen.
Wait, that's it? Are they not getting together? I thought Karl really cared about her? Raven thought angrily.
Raven's features softened when she saw the words 'To me you are perfect.' He really does love her with all his heart and sees her with no flaws. How great a love that must be.
I can't even imagine a love that strong. And no one would ever view me as perfect. Raven thought sadly.

"Do you think that's true?" Beast Boy asked and Raven glanced at him.
"That whole thing about your friend being the love of your life instead of a person you could date?" Raven asked and Beast Boy nodded.
"Well, I don;t think I am the best person to ask since my experience with love is limited, but it seems to work for those two." She said and Beast Boy looked like he wanted to say something but didn't.

"I know that the Prime Minister is in love and everything but how many doors would he have knocked on if he couldn't find her?" Raven wondered out loud.
"And not only that, but how could he knocked on all those doors and not come across another Natalie?" Beast Boy asked and Raven smiled.
"Maybe they had that encounter filmed but decided to cut it." Raven said and Beast Boy smiled at her.
"Yet another reason why we should look at the bonus features." He said happily.

"Man look at all those couples at the play for the kids." Beast Boy said observantly.
"No kidding, look it's the couple from that porno set." Raven said.
"Hey, did you see that kid, Sam hit his dad when he tried to fix Sam's hair?" Beast Boy asked and Raven nodded.
"And whose on screen now?" She said.
"Why it's the writer who ran off to the airport."
"And he's not throwing a tantrum."
"Because he was being a gentleman."
"And gave his taxi to someone else."
"Now how does Jamie know where to find Aurelia?"
"Do you really expect me to have all the answers?"
"You normally do, Rae." Beast Boy said and Raven rolled her eyes.

"Ok, I know the parents helped with their kids costumes but by the looks of that play, it would have been better if the school reused their forty-year-old used costumes." Raven said and Beast Boy nodded.
"I know right, I mean, I love kids but at first I thought those penguins were Baseball players and one of the wise-men has his face painted like spider-man. Was that the kid's idea?" Beast Boy asked and Raven shrugged.
"I have no clue. And, you know, I like kids too and now that I look at it, the traditional costumes for the nativity play are really good and all these animals were because kids wanted to be in the play so they didn't have costumes for them, which is why the parents made them." Raven said.
"Oh, yeah, that's right, don't I feel like an ass now." Beast Boy said.
"I second that feeling." Raven said. After a few second Raven scoffed.
I figured out where the school budget for the play went." Raven said and Beast Boy laughed.

"Oops, they got busted." Beast Boy said with a smile.
"At least their laughing." Raven said gently nudging him.
"Yeah, very true." Beast Boy said and they smiled briefly at each other.
"And there's his sister." Raven said.
"Oh... she's just gonna confront him like that?" Beast Boy wondered out loud.
"It will only get worse if she doesn't." Raven said in a bored tone.
"Good they switched to the kid and his dad." Beast Boy said gratefully.
"He really is one good dad." Raven said and Beast Boy nodded.
"Forget that, he just became a great dad. Most parents wouldn't have taken their kid to the airport." Beast Boy commented.

"Man that kid is determined." Raven said with a smile and Beast Boy looked at her and grinned.
"Well, when it's for 'the one' you have to pull out all the stops." Beast Boy said.

"You know this is the first time they will be able to have a conversation." Raven said and Beast Boy nodded.
"I know, it's almost mind blowing." He said and Raven nodded.
"And yet it's incredibly sweet." She practically whispered. Together they watched Jamie's proposal in silence. Raven didn't even realize she was smiling until she saw the words '1 month later.
"Oh, hey an airport, you better get MY soda ready." Beast Boy said with an over confident grin.
"First of all, shut up, second of all, you haven't won yet." Raven said. And the two waited in anticipation.
"HA! He brought an American girl so you owe me a cup of tea." Raven said with a small but smug grin on her face.
"Wait, he brought two. We said one or none but we never discussed two." Beast Boy said in a slightly panicked tone.
"Fine, then you owe me two cups of tea." Raven said and Beast Boy smiled and playfully sighed.
"Fine, I owe you two cups of tea." He said and Raven nodded.
"You know that I'll hold you to that?" Raven mentioned in a warning tone.
"I would be disappointed if you didn't" Beast Boy said with an even bigger grin.
