So I'm gonna love you
Like I'm gonna lose you
And I'm gonna hold you
Like I'm saying goodbye
Wherever we're standing
I won't take you for granted
'Cause we'll never know when
When we'll run out of time
-Like I'm Gonna Lose You, Meghan Trainor ft. John Legend

"Raven...Raven, get up," I heard a voice said.

"Raven, open your eyes," Another voice said.

My eyes flutter open as I shot upright. This sudden fear leaves me, but it caused one of the dressers to explode. I looked around my room frantically. Robin and Starfire were in front of me with a worried look. Beast Boy and Cyborg stood by the entrance, scared. It happened again. The dreams. That's the third one this week.

"You were having the dream again?" Starfire asked.

I sighed as I laid back. "I'm fine. You can go."

"Um, hello..." Beast Boy waved his arms around as he walked around Cyborg. "You screaming like someone is killing you is anything but fine."

"I said I was fine. Go to sleep." I am fine. These dreams will leave.

"BB's right, Raven, you're not fine," Cyborg said.

I shot up from my bed and glared at all of them. "It was just a dream. Dreams will pass. You guys don't have to keep running in here to wake me up."

"Raven, we just want what's best for you," Robin started. "You haven't been the same since we stopped your father -"

I got up from my bed. "Since my father almost killed all of you." Keep your emotions together, Raven. "He didn't. I know these dreams mean nothing. I know he's not going to magically resurrect himself and kill everyone. Like I said, these dreams will pass. We just have to wait."

Robin gave me a worried look, but nodded. "Ok, well, if you need anything, don't be afraid to get one of us. We're your friends, Raven. You don't have to go through this alone."

Starfire followed after Robin out my room. Cyborg yawned before bidding goodnight. Beast Boy was the last one. He looked at the others before his gaze fell onto me.

"Who was it this time?" He asked slowly.

I crossed my arms. "You."

"Oh."

I nodded. "He held your body up high before ripping you in half."

The color drained from Beast Boy's face. "Oh. Well, that will definitely give someone nightmares." He scratched the back of his neck nervously. Beast Boy wanted to say something else. I could feel one of my emotions wanting to come out and embrace him, but I held it back."Well, goodnight, Raven."
