Chapter 1

Terra sat at her desk at the school. She looked out the window and stared into West City. The other day Beast Boy found her in the school the other day. He wanted her to come back and she knew that. She looked down at her notebook and saw that instead of taking notes, she had drawn Beast Boy. She ripped the paper out and crumbled it up. No. That wasn't her life anymore. She left the superhero life and now was trying to live a normal life. She had a family that took her in, friends, and the school. Plus she was looking into college to go to next year.

When the bell rang, Terra got up and picked up her books. School was over. Would Beast Boy be standing outside the school? Or would she see him on the news since the Titans had to get to battle? Terra walked to her locker and put in the combo. Now it was head home, do homework, chores, and then free time. Terra pulled out her backpack and opened it as she placed her books in it. When she closed it, she saw the green. Beast Boy stood there with a couple of scratches and cuts.

"Go away." Terra said as she started to walk towards the door.

"Terra wait!" Beast Boy said running after her. Terra stopped and looked at him.

"My name isn't Terra, its Atlee." She said. To a degree, she hated the fact she had to lie to Beast Boy. But it was the only way she could live a normal life.

"No it's not. You're Terra…You have to be." Beast Boy said.

"I'm not. My name is Atlee Marks. Not this Terra that you keep saying I am. Please leave me alone." Terra said as she turned back around.

A knot in her throat started to form. She wanted to say it was her and that she was in love with him. He forgave her! And if she returned back to her life as Terra, everything she had now would be gone. She couldn't no matter how much she wanted to. The others wouldn't forgive her like Beast Boy did. None of them. And they were some of the closet thing she had to a family since she left her own.

She didn't hear Beast Boy trying to call out to her. She looked at him from the corner of her eye and saw him standing there, watching her. Terra opened the doors to the school and walked out. From a distance, she could see the others. Starfire. Cyborg. Robin. Raven. Lucky they didn't see her as she walked across the street.

"Dude! We so beat him down hard. Let's get pizza." She could hear Cyborg said.

"What a glorious idea friend Cyborg. We partake in the victory meal yes?" Starfire said.

"Well we need to wait for Beast Boy to get back. He said he swore he saw Terra." Robin said.

Terra almost froze. Beast Boy told them. Now there was the chance they would help him get to her. Quickly, Terra picked up the pace and hurried back home. She was panicking now. Soon enough, she came to the house. It was a nice little house. Look like the ones you would see the perfect family standing outside having a barbeque and the kids playing in the yard. She opened the front gate as the front door open and out came a man. He looked to be in his late thirties, early forties. His red hair was slicked back and had bright green eyes. He wore a oil stained white t-shirt and oil-stained blue jeans with some black Chuck Taylors on. He was wiping his hands with a rag.

"Hey Terra. How was School?" He asked as Terra walked up more towards the house.

"Same old same old." She said. She had to tell this family who she was and why she wanted a normal life. They only called her Terra at the house and Atlee in public. And it works.

"Okay. Before you change, can you mow the lawn? I fixed the lawnmower and I need to fix the weedwacker." He asked.

"Sure Paul. I can do that. Let me change first." Terra said as Paul stepped to the side to let her in.

"Alright. And it's already filled up with gas and ready for you." He said/

"Thanks." Terra said as she headed to her room.

Terra walked towards the back of the first floor and opened a door. The room was painted a golden sand color with a few posters hanging up on it. And they were only of bands expect the Teen Titan one. She had it up just so she could see Beast Boy in some way. Her bed was a mess of green sheets. Beast Boy was for that reason as well. She walked over to her desk which was oddly enough clean, and placed her backpack on it. Then she walked over to her dresser and opened a drawer and pulled out some shorts and an old shirt from her past. Her blue shirt that she wore when she met the Titans. Now it was just a work shirt.

She took off her school uniform and put on her work clothes. She folded up her uniform and placed it on the dresser. Rebeka would get them when she got home and wash them. Terra put on some socks and shoes on. She grabbed a hair bow as she left her room to put her hair in a ponytail. Terra walked to the shed and saw the lawnmower out and ready for her. She smirked as she walked over and turned it on.

Later in the day, Terra was in her room. She had showered after mowing the lawn and focusing on schoolwork now. She chewed a pen in her mouth as she stared at the work infront of her. She hates History homework as well as Math. Terra opened a desk drawer and pulled out three small rocks. As she placed the pen down, her hand glowed yellow as she lifted the rocks and made them spin in a circle. It was her way to focus. When there was a knock on the door, she dropped the rocks on the desk.

"Yes?" Terra asked as the door open. Paul came in and looked at her.

"How's the school work coming along?" He asked.

"Stuck on History like usual." She said as he came in and leaned against the wall. He noticed the rocks on the table.

"Playing with your powers?"

"Playing with the rocks helps me focus." She said.

"I see. I have a question for you." Paul said.

"Shoot."

"I saw on the news today that there was a attack near the school and the Titans went and took care of it. Did he see you?" Paul asked. The color fell from Terra's face and tears formed in her eyes.

"Yes…" She said as a tear rolled down her face. Paul looked at her and stroked her hair.

"You know why you can't. You told it to yourself. College. No more being a hero." Paul said.

"I know. It was just so hard lying to him today. Really. I wanted to go, it's me but I can't." She said.

"I know it's hard for you. But you've been doing so well. Remember that." Paul said. Terra nodded her head. Paul and Rebeka had been supporting her with the life she now lived. Plus they had to remind her what she wanted to do. Terra wiped the tears away.

"Now, Rebeka has made dinner. We're having steak with fries." Paul said.

"Sounds wonderful." Terra said.

Author's Note:

It's been a while since I wrote a non-Tokio Hotel Fan Fiction and I felt like writing a Teen Titan TerraxBeast Boy. They are my favorite couple in TT. Also the Title Worms and Dirt was given when I asked a friend for a title and it's what she gave me. And it picks off as you can tell after the Series Finale and I have a lot plan. Also, Atlee is a clone of Terra from a mini-series and I want to use bits of her for Terra in this story. Anyways, I hope you enjoy it.
