Raven''s POV
He’s there; I can feel him. He follows me. No, he hunts me. Every night as I fly about Jump City he stalks me. He stalks me as a tiger stalks its prey. I run while he pursues; but it’s hard to run when all you want is to be caught.
He is the only one to have braved the depths of my mind and emerge unafraid. He broke down the walls I surrounded myself with. Only he knows who I am beneath the frozen mask and cynical remarks. He provokes me a little everyday to feel a little more, to trust a little more. He faces the darkness inside me unflinching.
I’ve pulled him into the darkness that is me, I think he likes it. I believe that in his time as Batman’s and Slade’s apprentice he has grown accustomed to the darkness. He reminds me of a poem I read once.
Come take a walk on the other side of paradise.
Come walk on the darker side of the light.
Walk where the shadows and the shades of gray lay.
Where black and white aren’t always so.
Come take me hand,
I’ll show you the way.
Mind the shades of gray,
Don’t lose your way.
Dance where the darklings play.
Prance where the fairies fly.
Laugh where the nightjar sings.
Be where the shadows lay.
Let the moon and the stars light your way.
Wear the silk of the spider’s web.
Drink honey from the lotus blossom.
Find yourself where the shadows lay.
Find comfort in the shadow’s song.
Stay as long as you like.
Leave when you will.
A piece of the shadow will stay with you.
Come, come, back to the shadow way.
Together we’ll dance beneath the milky moonlight.
Kiss me, darling and kiss the moonlight.
Find love in the shadowed way.
Be my dark night dancer,
My darkling angel child.
Stay with me, in the shadows forever more.
My fairy charmer, come kiss me.
I’ll sing for you, my darkling angel,
Like I’ve sung for no other.
Be my lover, darkling angel child,
Under the sparkling starlight.
Come, come my darkling angel,
I’ll show you the wonders of the night.
Just take my hand,
And I’ll show you the way.
I’ll show you the magic in the moon and stars.
Come run in the shadows with me,
I’ll hold your hand and show you the way.
Come with me, darkling angel.
I’ll keep you safe,
My darkling angel child.
With a kiss and a promise,
I’ll keep you here with me.
Darkling Angel
I want what I can not have. Intimacy. My past denies me the one thing I truly desire. Maybe tonight I will hunt you.
As I round a corner he pounces. His lips on mine, his lean body entwined with mine. Our kiss is fierce, passionate. We plunge several stories before I regain enough control to stop our descent. When we land he grabs my hand and with a smile pulls me toward a nearby sushi bar. The food is good but strange; something else from Batman?
With another kiss we head back to the tower. Reluctantly I break the kiss. The flight home is disappointingly dull; like coming off a high. You are a drug. My drug.
Starfire will be crushed when she discovers you desire only me. But in a way I couldn’t care less because you are mine. I told her once ‘People come, people go.’ I wonder if she would leave. I know Beast Boy wouldn’t. Maybe we should free her. Just maybe.
We arrive, you always ask me. You know the answer. We retire to my room, my sanctuary. Our bodies entwined as sleep pulls a shroud over us.
I love you, darkling angel.
Thank Elfy for that poem. It's hers. And for the beta work on both.
