Tara!

We definitely need to talk, dude! Where've you been?! I even went through your house the other day! Anyway, that's gonna have to wait a bit 'cause it's Valentine's Day, and I've been waiting for this for a way long time!

[The only thing he might have done differently without the iris, was, maybe, remembering to filter it to her. There comes the sounds of fumbling noises in the background before a soundtrack of some sort begins to play...]

OK, here we go. One. Two. A-one two three --

You can't fade away
The way I feel for you there ain't no word I could say
What I'd do for you, and every single day...

By your side is where I'll be
Endless love and faith you'll see
When I walk you walk with me
Tara!
Together let the light shine! Together let the light shine... Together let the light shine~

[If Tara isn't properly mortified yet, Beast Boy caps this off with a --]

I love you, Tara!

[action]
[And then Beast Boy is triumphantly riding down the streets of Mayfield on his shiny new moped (when the heck had he ever owned this?!) with a giant bouquet of flowers.]

This is the best day ever!

[Naturally, he drives about as well as a 14-year-old could be expected to drive and promptly crashes at least 7 times. Maybe into you.]

This is still the best day ever!

[His bouquet is in pieces by the time he gets anywhere close to his destination. But there's a bunch of simple, elegant daisies growing in a flowerbed which he promptly plucks out of the ground.]

Comments

[forgotten_titan]

Yes...yes yes YES!

[He likes her back! He likes her, the average, high school girl!!]

I like you Beast boy with all my heart!

[thebeastwithout]

Oh man I totally died and went to heaven this is heaven ahhhhhh

Tara!

[Haha he totally needs to talk bout the 'i have no friends remember' thing, but that suddenly seems incredibly not important. Beast Boy impulsively reaches forward to grab a hand.]

I, uh. ...I guess I said it already a lot, but... Aw, shucks, I can't say it enough! I really like you!

[forgotten_titan]

[She happily holds his hand in hers.]

So, does this mean we're...we're dating?

[thebeastwithout]

[If keysmashing were something that could happen in real life, Beast Boy would be its patron saint.]

We... We could be! If you're OK with it! I mean, I definitely don't have anything to say against it, hahaha!

[forgotten_titan]

R-really? I mean, I don't want to force you or anything, but I've never had someone say he likes me before, so, I don't really know what's supposed to happen after that. I always thought the next step, was to start dating. If...if that's OK with you.

[thebeastwithout]

Dude. Are you kidding?! I'm so OK with it I'm like going all the way back around to not OK.

[thebeastwithout]

...Wait, no, that wasn't right at all. I mean... Yeah! I really want to!

[forgotten_titan]

G-great!

So, because we're dating and everything, do you...do you wanna do something today? It is Valentine's Day...

[thebeastwithout]

Do something...?

Y-Yeah, let's! Let's do something! Uh. Uh. Let's go... to...

[What was there even to do in Mayfield? Bowling alley, restaurants he couldn't eat anything in, malt shop...]

Malt shop! You wanna go to malt shop? The malt shop?!

[Stop screaming, Beast Boy.]

[forgotten_titan]

The Malt shop sounds good. I'd like that.

[She squeezes his hand with hers and smiles shyly.]

[thebeastwithout]

Great!! Let's go!

[Beast Boy pulls Tara's hand and begins to run down the street like an overeager dog on a leash.]

[forgotten_titan]

[She lets him pull her as she runs with him, her face sporting the biggest smile she's ever shown in Mayfield.]

[thebeastwithout]

[And the world lived happily ever after.

The End
