"Internet Sensation"

Chapter 1

We Know Your Secret

It had, oddly, been a slow week for the Teen Titans. Not one crminal started something and as good as it was to have peace in Jump City, they were bored. Robin had even finished all the research he could gig up on Slade for the time being.

It was Saturday and Beast Boy was sound asleep in his room, Raven was (as always) meditating on the rooftop, Starfire was feeding Silkie in the kitchen, and Robin and Cyborg were reclining on the couch watching an American Idol rerun.

Cyborg yawned and asked, "Why hasn't anything happened? Has every villian and crook in Jump gone on strike?!" Starfire looked up and said cheerfully, "Do not be unstatisfied friend Cyborg. We did need a bit of time to rest." Robin piped in, "She's right Cy. We have been tired lately."

Starfire turned her attention to the T.V. and David Archuleta was starting his rendition of 'Imagine'. Starfire had voted for David and got excited when hearing him sing. She flew to the couch and draped her arms around Robin's shoulders.

"Oh Yay! I love him!" she excitedly squealed in Robin's ear. Robin twitched, looked up at the screen, turned red, and thought, 'I'm better than him! I'm THE FREAKIN BOY WONDER for cryin out loud! So what if he can sing and . . . Dang it! Starfire is totally mesmerized! . . . Curse him!'

Starfire let go of Robin and flew towards the screen. "Oh is he not most charming?" she sighed. Robin faced her and forced a smile in response. Cyborg noticed his friend's jealous expression and snickered to himself. "Yo Robin, why so red?" Starfire glanced over and Robin mumbled something about getting air and ran out. That left Starfire confused and Cyborg laughing.

'Great! Just great!' Robin thought angrily to himself. As he was passing Beast Boy's room, he heard a loud and obnoxious sound coming from behind the chaneling's door. Was he still sleeping in there? Robin opened the door to BB's room and he was still asleep, snoring like crazy. It didn't even sound like snoring. Weirder than that, he was hugging an overly plushed, purple teddy bear with a shiny blue bow around its neck!

Robin closed the door, raised an eyebrow, and wondered why a teenage boy was hugging and drooling on a girly teddy bear. He headed back to the main room and asked Cyborg if he knew anything about it. After laughing about it, Cyborg simply replied, "No." He thought some more and added, "Come to think of it, this is weird even for BB."

"I do not understand why having a teddy bear is so much trouble," Starfire began, "Why, I even have one in my room. Shall I go and get it?"

"Never mind that," Cyborg answered. "I just wanna know where it came from." Robin had a sudden thought and asked Starfire if she had given it to him. She did.

"Do you remeber his 'day of birth' last week?" she asked. They both nodded. "I bought him the teddy bear and gave it to him after the celebration. I also took a recording of the moment he received the gift on your camera, Robin." She flew over behind the counter and came back with it. "You left it on the couch." She smiled and handed to him.

Robin turned the camera on and saw the video in the memory file. He smirked and pressed the button. Cyborg took part in watching it too. The beginning of the video showed Beast Boy hugging the bear and excitedly saying, "Sweet! Can I tell you a secret? I'm afraid of the dark and with you around I won't be lonely! I have to give you a special name. I think I'll call you . . . RAVEN!!! Raven, don't tell Raven! Hahaha! It's our little secret, okay? I love you Raven!!! May I have this dance fair, sweet Raven?" He then danced around the room with it singing 'My Heart Will Go On' badly while Starfire zoomed in and saying behind the camera, "Aww, is it not sweet?" The recording ended with Beast Boy kissing the bear and that left Robin and Cyborg wide eyed and silent. Then they both burst into an out of control laughing fit. Starfire just stared.

"Hahahaha! M-my stomach! Haha! It's so f-funy it hurts!" Robin was on his hands and knees trying to talk. Cyborg was rolling on the floor.

"I do not understand. Why is it funny?" asked a puzzled Starfire. Cyborg hopped up and took the camera from Robin. "I'll explain later Star, but right now I've got to put this on the Internet!" "But . . . " she began. "I said later!" Cyborg called out behind him. Both Robin and Starfire looked at each other for moment and followed him.

By the time they had gotten to Cyborg's room, he had already uploaded it to his high-tech computer. "One more second and . . . It's on Youtube!" Cyborg announced happily.
