Waiting

She had been patient...
She'd waited for over half a year...
(Like three-fourths of it...)
And it had been painful...
(Painfully so.)
It had been incredibly annoying...
(Especially with the mood changes. She couldn't go near anyone for a week.)
But maybe it had been worth it...
(Just a little.)
Raven stared down at the child in her arms. It seemed so small and fragile. Veins ran through its tiny arms like a map, and she stopped breathing for a moment so he wouldn't.
"Was it worth it?" Beast Boy asked as he wrapped her arms around her waist.
She held the child closer to her chest, wondering how on earth she'd been able to create it. His wide green eyes opened and his hand reached to grab her hair, yanking softly. She smiled.
"You mean the pain, the stress, and the incredibly long wait?"
"Nine months," Beast Boy stated, "Plus he was a week late."
"Yeah," she sighed happily, "It was definitely worth it."
