Disclaimer: I do not own the Teen Titans. I do, however, own a pair of socks that say 100 Grand on them, so theoretically, I have 200 Grand. Hey, I would sell my show for $200,000 (if I had a show, that is.) Unfortunately for my, I also do not own Nestle, the company that owns 100 Grand candy bars. I wouldn't sell Nestle for $200,000, its worth way more than that (not that Teen Titans isn't!). Wish I could find the other sock!

This is a first of a series of fluff stories that are mainly BBRae. The titles will go in alphabetical order, starting with A for Accept. Lets see how far I can make it in the alphabet before I either give up, die, or get so many bad reviews that I can't type because I'm weeping so much.

(A/N 1: Beast Boy isn't a vegan. He eats cheese pizza, don't he?)

Accept

Beast Boy lay on his bed, thinking about the girl that he loved. No, that wasn't right. She was no longer a girl. In the time that he had known her, she had more than earned the right to be called a woman. And yet he would always think of her as the girl he loved.

He had picked her a flower. There had been a rosebush in someone's front yard. The roses were purple, which was something he had never seen before. He had noticed them, and thought of her, and wondered if she would like one. He decided she might, so he scrambled over the fence and, after searching for a minute or two, found the one that he thought was the most perfect. When he tried to pick the purple rose, however, his thumb was pricked by one of the thorns. That just made him smile as he stuck his thumb in his mouth to suck off the blood. (A/N: No he is not a vampire, it's a normal reflex.)

After some consideration, he decided that he should pay the family that owned the rosebush. A quick search through his pockets uncovered two dollars and twenty cents, as well as some scraps of paper, a broken pencil, and some lint. He slid the two dollars into the mail slot, pocketed everything else, and continued on his way, carefully carrying the rose.

"Hey BB, you hungry?"

Beast boy sat up and looked at the alarm clock that was lying on the floor next to his bed. It read 5:32. Wow, he thought, I haven't eaten for four whole hours!

"Sure Cy, I'm starving. What'cha makin?" he called to his metallic friend.

"I'm thinking sundaes. You game?"

"Sure!"

Beast Boy jumped off his bed, exited his room, and started jogging (he's hungry!) toward the kitchen. He didn't notice until too late that she was walking in his direction down the hall. Her thoughts were clearly elsewhere.

It came as a surprise to both of them when they collided.

"Hey!"

"Ow!"

"Beast Boy was quick to apologize. "Uh, sorry. I wasn't really looking where I was going."

She looked at him blankly. "Neither was I. Sorry."

He realized that this was the best chance he would have all day. He told her to wait for a minute, and then ran to his room. When he came back, he was holding the rose. He stood in front of her and held it out.

"I picked this rose for you."

"Why?"

"Because…it reminded me of you. When I tried to pick it, it made be bleed a little bit."

"That's why it reminded you of me?"

"Wait, I'm not done. When I first saw it, it seemed really odd to me. I mean, vie never even HEARD of a purple rose before!

"So you think I'm odd?"

"Ye…I mean no, not really. But after I had it for a while, I began to realize how pretty it really is. It's not odd, its unique, which is even better. I like it a lot, and I think its starting to like me back." He paused a minute to let all that sink in. She probably wasn't used to him being subtle. "Plus, I kinda like the way it smells."

For the first time since he had made his speech, he lifted his gaze from the rose in his hand and looked directly into her face. She was blushing! He had made the girl he loved blush!

"So I was hoping that you would…accept this rose? As an apology for bumping into you?"

She reached out a hand, and Raven took the rose.
