Sleepover (JonDami Fic)

Thank You Raven

[JON'S POV]

Raven's cloud memory started becoming blurry, and then it vanished. The last thing I saw on it was Damian and Raven walking to the living room at the Titans tower. I wanted to take another sip of my orange soda, but didn't realised it's was already empty. I guess I drank it all while watching Raven's memory. I kept the soda can next to lamp, and looked at Raven, who was holding another can of orange soda right before me.

Raven: Here.

Me: No thanks. I'd rather not take too much sugar.

Raven: You're in a dream remember? You don't gain weight here unless you want to. You can partake tons of sugar and fats here without, gaining weight. 

Oh,,, yes, I forgot that I am in a dream.

Me: Well alright then. (Taking the soda from her) Thanks.

Raven: So. Did you understand what you've just saw? Did you understand that Damian has those same fears you're having? Did you realised that there is nothing to be afraid of because the both, of you do not want to lose each other?

Me: (open can. sitting frozen) I never knew, Damian had that fear. The fear of losing, me..... This is the first time, that I have ever felt so much love given to me by a friend, not just by my parents. (Sips soda) Yes Raven, yes. I understand it now.

Raven: (sips tea) Damian, he may be insufferable, and sometimes ungrateful, but in his heart, he is a kind and generous soul. Get to know that part of him Jon. Damian has so much to share. He acts fine but he really isn't. His bottle is overflowing as each day passes by. I can only heal him so much, but there comes a point where even magic, can't help anymore. (Sigh and sips tea).... Do you remember the part where I healed Damian in that memory cloud?

Me: Yeah..?

Raven: Did you remember the part where I told him some parts where magic could not heal?

Me: Yes?

Raven questioning was getting really deep now. Those raven purple eyes are really looking deep into mine. Then she looked down to her teacup.

Raven: Who knows Jon... Maybe you're the one, who can help to heal those parts. You gotta know, sometimes a person's love and company, could be more powerful than magic. Magic and powers isn't everything. They can only do so much. 

Me: But what can I do? I mean, I don't know much of Damian's League of Assassins past or any of his likings. How am I suppose to---

Raven: As I said to Damian on that day, I'll say the same to you right now. You'll know what to do when the time comes. Don't stress too much on how to make someone happy. Just be yourself towards him and everything will be good.

Me: Be myself.... that's what I'm afraid of.

Raven: Ok, let me suggest you one thing you could do for him. Would you like to hear it or you already have something in mind?

Me: No, I would like to hear it please.

Raven: Ok. Since the holidays are here, why don't you get him a gift, for a start. Do something special for him instead of buying it from the store. As Starfire says, a DIY gift is even more special then a purchased gift. You figure out what to get for him. Whatever it is, he's going to like it, even if his expression doesn't show it.

Me: A gift? A DIY gift? Oh boy. This isn't gonna be easy.

Raven: Nothing in life is... You either try and fail or be a loser by not try at all. I trust you'll make the right choice Jon. (Poofed empty teacup away) If you find it hard to do it by yourself, you can always ask Alfred, or us the Titans, or your family.. We can help.
