Since its Valentine's Day, can you do a cute BBRae cuddly fic? Like just them cuddling and kissing? And happy Valentines Day!! ❤️💕
Cuddling was Raven’s favorite.
There was just something so…profound and new about it. She often marveled at the feel of human touch, always staring in fascination at the arms wrapped around her. They were so warm, and sturdy. Welcoming, even.
It was something she’d never imagined liking; after all, there wasn’t much physical affection back on Azarath. At least, not towards her. So every time he pulled her close, Raven’s breath hitched and her heart fluttered. She always found herself staring in wonder as the low light flickered on his emerald skin, intrigued by the contrasting color pallet.
The realization was sudden. One day, his hand clasped her shoulder and he leaned close, and it hit her just how often he did that sort of thing. A hand, brushing against her arm. The warmth of his shoulder as he leaned against her during movie nights. His frequent hugs. Their knees touching beneath the table.
At first, Raven had drawn away. The notion baffled her, and she wanted no part in whatever tricks he was trying to play. It wasn’t until a confrontation soon after that Raven learned there was no tricks.
The outburst was sudden, and bizarre. She vividly remembered staring at Beast Boy’s flushed face as she glowered at her, his tumultuous and terrifyingly real emotions a whirlpool around her.
Beast Boy had practically growled, and merely snatched her cloak, dragging her in for a kiss. It was then that it really began to sink in.
As much as Raven was reluctant to admit it, she was terrible with emotions. Irony, she always felt. The empath that couldn’t be emphatic. It was a flaw of hers she knew all too well, and did her best to hide. Hiding things never went well, however, especially when it came to her own feelings.
It had taken over a week of meditation and contemplation before she could even broach the subject, let alone figure out how to proceed. Luckily for Raven, Beast Boy was surprisingly patient.
When she finally approached him, quivering like a leaf, and murmured a rushed, “I like you too,” he’d beamed so wide, Raven feared his grin would fall off his face.
And then he’d reached out and squeezed her hand, making her heart flip flop in her chest.
Beast Boy nuzzled her neck, interrupting her train of thought. She turned, a smile tugging at her lips.
“Happy Valentine’s Day,” he murmured softly.
“I hope you didn’t plan a big date,” Raven said. Beast Boy chuckled.
“Just take out and a bouquet of roses.” He pressed a gentle kiss onto her cheek, hugging her tighter. “And cuddling, of course.”
She smiled. “You know me so well.”
Beast Boy grinned, and she kissed him.
Here you go! Hopefully this was cuddly enough. XD I’m glad you put this in, ‘cuz it actually kicked me into gear to write, lol. So Thanks! And happy Valentine’s Day, everyone! :)
