Lost and Found

Questioning

"Aww you knocked down my house!" Selena crossed her arms in frustration.
"Sorry sorry sorry. Hold on I'll build you a new one."
Raven sat back and enjoyed the show. It was surprisingly entertaining.
"Do you like it?" He asked as the tower of blocks was taller than her.
"Yes!" She squealed and grabbed his leg. He looked up and Raven and held a thumbs up before picking her up. He walked over and sat next to Raven.
"Her hair is beautiful." Selena whispered to him.
"Yeah, it sure is."
"I want purple hair!" Selena pouted. The two teens laughed.
"Maybe you can ask your mom." Raven suggested.
"Did you have to ask your mom?" She asked with a tilted head.
"I uhh... Yes."
"Does your mom have purple hair like you?"
Ravens eyes watered.
"Yes..." Beastboy noticed the state she was in.
"Hey uh Selena. Do you want to play something like um.."
"Piggyback!" She shouted. He smiled and nodded as he put her on his shoulders and walked around the room, leaving Raven to her thoughts. She wondered where her mom was in Azarath and if she was thinking about her. She didn't get far into her thoughts because Regan and her mom walked through the doors.
"Thank you for watching her." Jessica said thankfully.
"No problem." He grinned handing Selena back.
Raven about to speak but Regan tugged on her arm.
"Can-Can I talk to you? Alone?"
"Yeah of course." Regan smiled as they exited the room, Raven saw Beastboy looking concerned through the glass but she gave him a smile of assurance and he nodded.
They walked to the food court and got a table.
"Okay, what's up?" Raven asked with her fingers tapping the table.
"I just want to know, how did you get through it. Like after you escaped?"
"Get through what?" She didn't quite understand.
"The memories, and flashbacks." She said looking down at the table trying to avoid eye contact. She didn't want to seem weak.
"Talking about it really helped. Keeping stuff like that to yourself isn't good. And I know it is hard to talk about but it gets things off of your chest." She smiled softly at her, but she saw tears coming down Regans chin.
"I-I won't get married will I?" She bit her lip.
"Why? What do you mean?" She grabbed Regans hand.
"As soon as a boy figures out about this th-they will leave. They wouldn't want to deal with my problems. And I don't wanna be alone.."Raven wiped her face and grabbed her shoulders.
"Regan that is not true, not at all. Someone is gonna love you for who you are and they aren't gonna judge you because of this. This was not your fault and they are gonna know that. You know Beastboy? Him and I are together and he doesn't care about that, because he knew that I couldn't control it. He has been there for me when I needed him to be. He loves me so much, and treats me so good. Gosh, I tried to commit suicide after he saved me. Just the flashbacks and everything got to me but he was the one that found me and he stayed with me all night and listened to me rant about my problems." She gripped Regans hand tightly.
"Someday you are gonna find someone just like him. I promise." She gave her a smile of assurance. Regan looked down and started crying, which Raven understood. She wrapped her arms around her.
"It's okay. Take all the time you need to. And you know what? He held me just like this when I needed him to. And one day, that boy that loves you is gonna do this very thing when you need it." She whispered. Regans grip got tighter around her.
"Thank you." She managed to say.
"You are so welcome."
