So here's a new one, it's not Christmas related, and it's been sitting on my laptop for a while.
Disclaimer: I don't own the Teen Titans. If I did, BB and Raven would be dating and the show would still be running. Nuff said really.
Here goes…
(A/N = all Titans are 18)
Chapter One: Between a wall and a hard place…
Raven sighed and pulled out her communicator. "All clear down my end," she reported. "No sign of him."
"Alright, we're regrouping at the Tower, see if we can't tag him on the computer," came Robin's annoyed voice through the com.
"See you in ten," Raven replied, shutting the communicator and clipping it back on her belt.
She wandered back down the enclosed alleyway, not bothering to rush back to an irritated-as-hell Boy Wonder. She didn't see the point in his frustration; frustration clouded the mind and kept you from reaching your goal. And at the moment, Robin's goal was to finally catch Red-X once and for all.
Raven snorted to herself. "That'll be the day," she muttered. "The day Red-X goes down will be the day I marry Cinderblock."
"Luckily for you Sunshine, I have no intention of getting caught."
Raven whirled round to see the thief leaning casually on the brick wall behind her, one foot braced against the wall, his arms crossed over his chest nonchalantly. Her eyes flickered to white and darkness surrounded her hands as she glared at him.
"What do you want, X?" she hissed. He scoffed and unfolded his arms.
"I'm not here to fight baby doll, if that's what you mean."
"Don't call me that!" she shouted, agitated, but allowed her eyes to bleed back to violet, and the darkness to be sucked back into her body. Red-X pushed himself off the wall and took a couple of steps towards her slowly; not making any sudden movements that could set her off.
"What's the matter with you Sunshine?" he asked, and Raven could feel the smirk he wore behind that mask.
"Apart from the fact that I'm standing but two metres from the biggest ass on the planet, nothing much," she retorted, turning her back to him and continuing down the alley to the main street.
"You're just going to walk away from me?" he asked, surprised that although she'd made a show of powering down, she hadn't attacked him anyway.
"I'm not stupid enough to attempt fighting you on my own," she said. Although, she thought, if I let my Demon side take over, I'd beat you with a hand tied behind my back and my eyes shut.
Raven stopped walking when he didn't make a witty remark. He didn't say anything, actually, so she turned back round to face him.
Only, he wasn't there.
She wondered if he'd teleported back to wherever the hell he'd come from, but she had to check, as her human eyes couldn't make much out in the eerie darkness of the alley.
"X?" She sighed when she got no reply, and turned back to leave the enclosed space. She nearly shrieked in surprise when he appeared in front of her, so much so that she didn't react when he grabbed her wrists, spun her round, and pushed her so she was backed up against the wall, her arms held above her head by him, his body pressing against her.
Raven swallowed, and although she was uncomfortable with physical contact normally, she found that having his muscular body pressed up against her own shocked her into silence. She could feel his excitement and lust, but found she couldn't move.
"You called?" he said, smirking down at her, being around a foot taller than her.
Raven's breathing became erratic and she felt her heart speed up as he lowered his face to hers. He switched his grip on her wrists, keeping her arms above her with just one hand, while freeing his other. He pulled his mask up to his nose with his free hand, and pressed his lips to hers. Raven exhaled sharply, but this only allowed the thief access to her mouth, his tongue running along her own, sparking it to life. As her mind melted and Lust did cartwheels in her head, she kissed back, and X felt it safe enough for him to release her wrists and take hold of her hips, smoothing his hands down her curves. Raven brought her hands down behind his neck, and gasped as X's hands slid down her hips and behind her, sinking his fingers into her bottom. She felt her fangs grow in as her Demon relished being worshipped like this, and felt her claws come in too.
She moaned in the back of her throat as he deepened the kiss, making it hot and urgent, his hands gripping her tightly, pressing his hips into hers. Raven felt heat churning in her stomach as she felt his hardness dig into her.
As soon as it had started, it ended, as X pulled away from her, leaving her to slump forward weakly, and pulled his mask back down.
"Went a bit far there Sunshine," he chuckled. "How bout I help you stand a bit better against that wall?" Raven frowned, confused, as she looked up at him. Next think she knew, there was a splat and she found herself trapped by one of his Xs. She glared at him as she strained against the sticky X that had her stuck to the wall.
"Bastard," she hissed, before he claimed her mouth with his own once more. When he pulled away, Raven instinctively moved forward, wanting the contact back, but instead he pressed an X to her mouth, refraining her from talking.
"Love you too Sunshine," he replied, and Raven could feel amusement rolling off him in waves as she glared at him.
"How about we call Boy Blunder?" he asked smoothly. "Or is it Boy Wonder now that you're dating him?" Raven treated him to her patented death glare, but was even more pissed off when he took no notice.
How in the name of Azar does he know that??
His hands reached her belt and pulled the communicator off it, then pressed the button that called Robin's com and allowed video feed.
"Hey, Bird Brain," he greeted, "How're you today?"
X! Robin yelled through the link, where's Raven?!
X smirked at the half-demon stuck to the wall and replied, "Oh, hangin around." He turned the communicator to show Robin the trapped Raven. "I'm sure lil Miss Sunshine'll be happy to see you when you come get her."
Raven frowned. Was that resentment she felt coming from the thief? She watched as he shut the communicator and clipped it back in its place on her belt. He raised a gloved hand to her face, placing it on her cheek, then placed a kiss on her chakra gem.
"See you later Sunshine." And with a press of the teleport button on his utility belt, he was gone.
After what felt like half an hour, the other Titans appeared. Robin ran upto her and used the sharp edge of a birdarang to cut through the X that held her to the wall. Once free, Raven tore the sticker off her mouth (Ow!!) and glared at it, setting her jaw, her lips pursed.
"Friend Raven, are you of the O and K?" Starfire asked, pulling Raven into a bone crushing hug of affection.
"If you let me breathe again I will be…" Raven gasped as Starfire's hug pushed the air from her lungs. Starfire gently released her, placing her back on the ground.
Another set of arms wrapped round her, but these ones were most welcome.
"Rae…" he whispered in her ear, and Raven turned in his grasp to face the masked eyes of Robin, who then placed a soft kiss on her lips.
"What'd he do to you?" he asked. "He didn't hurt you?" Raven shook her head.
"He kissed me."
The reaction from everyone was instantaneous.
Starfire's eyes glowed a furious green, Cyborg armed his sonic cannon, Beast Boy was caught between growling and laughing, and Robin's arms around her tightened protectively.
Raven simply rolled her eyes.
"It doesn't matter; he wanted to get to you through me, get you pissed off and riled up," she said to Robin. "Don't let him win."
Robin exhaled sharply, then nuzzled her neck. "Fine," he growled, his lips brushing the skin of her throat. He then turned to the others.
"Right you lot, let's get back to the Tower."
There you have it, chappie numero uno. My first story with Red in. I may not like the RoBxRae pairing, but I made myself write one so I could get the Robin/Red X jealousy in there.
Make me happy: read & review!!
