I am finally going to do it. ' Thought a nervous Beast boy. ' I'm going to ask Raven out.'
It had been three years since the Titans had defeated Slade. Robin and Starfire had admitted their love for each other and had become quite serious.Cyborg hadn't changed much. He did see Jinx every now and then. His excuse was to keep up with Brother Blood but everyone knew that his outings to the movies with her wasn't just business. Jinx had become an undercover agent, like Bumble Bee, against Brother Blood and kept the Titans posted on his actions.
Raven however, had changed drastically since he had first met her. She had gotten rid of her father and she now smiled, blushed, and didn't get angered easily. She even laughed at some of Beast boy's jokes that are how much she had changed. She was still the same Raven, only better. She still had her dark and gloomy days where she didn't want to be bothered and growled at everyone who bothered her.
Beast boy looked at himself in the mirror. He had changed much as well. He had thrown out his spandex in place of semi-tight jeans and, for the most part, black shirts. He did wear other colors but black and blue were among his favorites. His green hair was streaked with black.
' I wonder why .' He smirked. Raven and he had become great friends since they had changed and influenced each others tastes. Raven herself wore baggy jeans and skin tight shirts every once in a while. Showing off her perfect, slightly muscular abs. Beast boy drooled just thinking about it.
He shook his head out of a daze and glanced at the clock. "Shit." he swore as 6:30 glared at him from the digital clock on his night stand. "If I'm going to ask Raven out in half an hour I better get my ass moving." he mumbled to himself, heading for his bathroom to shower.
~*~20 Minuets later~*~
Beast boy walked into the lounge of the Tower carrying his shirt in one hand and a towel in the other. He set his shirt down and started to dry his hair. "Anyone seen Raven?" he asked as he did so.
"Friend Raven is in her room." responded Starfire from her spot on the couch. She was reading a romance novel that Raven had gotten her for Christmas.
"Thanks Star." He said, slipping on his shirt.
Robin walked over from the fridge. "So, you're finally going to ask her out then?"
Beast boy nodded, he looked down at his black, skin tight shirt that showed off his nicely toned abs. He had been training a lot and was no longer the skinny green stick. He was now slightly built from lifting weights over the past few years. "I'm kind of nervous." He admitted quietly.
Cyborg clasped a hand on his shoulder. "Everyone is when they first ask someone out that they really like. Trust me. he said, voice lowering at the end.
Beast boy grinned at his friends and took a deep breath. "Wish me luck." he muttered.
Robin pushed him towards the door with a wink. "Good luck man."
"Go get her!" Cyborg said, punching his fist in the air.
Beast boy grinned nervously at them and disappeared from sight when the doors closed.
Robin and Cyborg exchanged brief grins before returning to their previous activities. Robin hopped on the couch, wrapping his arms around Starfire who cuddled against him and continued to read.
Cyborg muttered something about meeting with Jinx as he walked out the door.

Beast boy walked silently down the hall towards Ravens room. Every step he took, the knot in his stomach grew until he stood in front of the door, all but sweating.
He raised a shaking hand and rapped lightly on her door three times. Inside he heard a few muffled curses and shuffling of papers before the door opened a crack. Ravens face appeared and upon seeing her guest, she smiled and slid through the door, closing it behind her.
"Is there something I can help you with BB?" she asked, a smile that he had come to love plastered on her ivory face.
For a moment he froze, not sure if he should as her or not but as her _expression grew impatient he swallowed his fear and looked her in the eyes.
"Actually you can. I was wondering if you would go out with me tonight." He said his voice lowering as he asked. He stood, looking at the floor, waiting for her answer
