Vindicated
Chapter 3
Numb.
Not physically, mentally. That is how I feel right now. I can't believe this. We just creamed a bad guy and I can't enjoy the victory. I'm even beating Cy at my favorite video game and I just can't feel it. What is wrong with me? Is it Raven that is causing me to feel like I am nowhere? No, she wouldn't do that to me. I know she hates me, but she wouldn't go that far to get rid of me. Maybe there is something seriously wrong with me. No. That can't be it. I'll just wait it out a little while longer and in a few days if I'm still not ok I'll go talk to a professional. That sounds like a plan. What time is it? It's almost one; I had better get to make lunch for Em.
“Yo Star, you wanna take over my game; I'm gonna go make some lunch.”
“But Beast Boy, is this not your most favorite of the video games? You are winning and I am no good at any of the games. You will most certainly lose”
“That's cool Star; can't win em all right?”
With that said I just tossed the controller at Star and she immediately picked up the controller without missing a beat. She was actually a lot better at it then she believed herself to be. She instantly managed to pull off a very difficult combo that I was barely capable of doing. It is interesting because Cy and I are the only ones who actually have had a chance to read the instruction and combo manual so the only way she could have known about the combos would be by watching me do them. It almost makes me want to screw lunch and play her myself because she is so good. Although simply by watching her tear apart Cy I know that I wouldn't last very long. She is really capable of so much more then she lets on. I doubt that anyone would last very long in the arena of “Battle Mania” against Star. If I weren't so numb I would be picking my jaw off of the floor. Anyway, back to making lunch. I hope she likes tofu.
~-~ 20 minutes later ~-~
“Knock, Knock, how is my patient doing today?”
“I'm doing great Beast Boy. Thank you for taking such wonderful care of me. Is that some food? Good I was wondering when I would get a chance to eat something other then hospital food.”
“I hope you don't have a problem eating tofu. I am a vegetarian and I would have a problem cooking meat for you.”
Em smiled and looked over at me, her new friend, “No, I love tofu, it's great. I stopped eating meat about two years ago.”
“Really? I have been off of the stuff ever since I could transform into the animals that people eat.”
I suddenly transformed into a chicken and started clucking around Em's bed causing her to breakout into laughter.
Em chimed in as soon as she was able to get a word in between laughs, “Doctor please you gotta help me. I think I've busted a gut.”
Suddenly I collapsed into a ball on the floor and the two of us were laughing and telling jokes for well over an hour neglecting the food that was quickly going cold. When we had finally calmed down I looked over at the once steaming food and realized that we had been laughing so long that we would have to eat cold food. It isn't that big of a deal but the entire meal was ruined and I had tried to prepare something nice for Emerald too.
“Don't worry BB, it was more then worth it. I haven't laughed that hard in my entire life. I never thought that I would ever meet someone else who enjoys those corny jokes. I really like hanging out with you.”
“I really like you too Em. Maybe after you get better and go back home we can still hang out sometimes. Nobody else around here likes my corny jokes so it would be nice to have someone in my corner with me. Come on, let's eat.”
On that note I started to dig in and noticed that Em also had horrible table manners. It was great to find someone who was thought just like me. I completely forgot about my depression and my heart melted like she was the sun rising. It felt great being around her. She suddenly looked up at me and said, “BB are you ok, you're just staring at me?”
I blushed and tried to play it off with a grin but ended up looking like a dork as usual, but it was ok because she started blushing and looking like a fool too. It was uncanny how we were alike. It was amazing. I got a grin on my face and decided that I could trust her a little bit and leaned over her and unlocked her cuffs. She must have thought I was going to kiss her and she leaned forward and planted one on me. But because I was leaned over to her side she ended kissing my nipple. She turned even redder and we both broke into laughter for another hour.
