First Date

Author's note: I've been getting a lot of homework lately, so I won't be able to answer all your reviews. Or so you think! HAHAHAHA!! Hehe.... Yes, I am insane; you got a problem with that?! Do ya? DO YA?!! Ahem.... Sorry if they're a little OoC (Raven's supposed to be, because...well, you'll see). Anyways....

This was written before Betrayal, but based after. So don't you forget it!! TERRA IS EVIL!!!!

This is gonna start as a romance fic, then it's gonna turn into an action fic. Be prepared. Or else!

Disclaimer: I don't own Teen Titans. Yet.

A hallway, Teen Titan's Tower, Friday, 7:02 PM

Beast Boy stood in front of a door, pulling at his collar and passing a bouquet from hand to sweaty hand.

"OK, let's see...Raven, there's something I need to tell you.... Yeah, that'll work...." B.B. scoffed. "In an alternate dimension.... Raven, I need to ask you a very important question...."

"Well? What did you want to ask me?" Raven's voice asked from behind him.

Beast Boy turned and his jaw dropped. How long had she been there?

"Well? I'm waiting," Raven said, smiling slightly. She instantly returned to her usual, monotone-self. Don't feel emotions she thought to herself for the hundredth time that week.

"I.... Well, it's j-just...just...I...I...I...I.... Well, you see.... Will...will y-you...you...g- g-go...go...go...with m-me...to d-dinner on S-Saturday?" Beast Boy choked out; holding the bouquet out to Raven, sweat from his palms dripping down in a steady stream.

Raven took the bouquet from Beast Boy, took a sniff, and opened her mouth. To her surprise, she couldn't get herself to refuse. All she could get out was "Nuh...nuh...um... n...nn...nnn..." Her mind went blank. A word formed on her lips: "Yes...."

SHE SAID YES! SHE DOES LIKE ME AS MUCH AS I LIKE HER!! Beast Boy thought. Too late, he remembered Raven could read minds. "Ahem.... I'll pick you up at eight, then..." he said, hoping against hope that Raven hadn't 'heard' what he'd just thought. He didn't actually have to worry, though. She was a little preoccupied at the time.

Why did I just DO that?! Raven screamed in her head, moaning. One of her many books exploded. She just didn't understand it. That morning, everything was normal. Now she had a date with Beast Boy, and she didn't even know how it had happened.

She locked herself in her room and thought about it all night. By the next morning, she knew what she was going to do, even though she didn't like it.

A different hallway, Teen Titan's Tower, Saturday, 7:19 PM

Now it was Raven's turn to anxiously stand outside a door, but for an entirely different reason.

"Now or never," Raven whispered to herself. She knocked on Starfire's door, and realized it wasn't the best time to do this after all when she heard two loud thuds. She walked in anyway. Robin and Starfire were lying on either side of Starfire's bed.

"R-Raven! W-what are you d-doing here...?" Starfire said, trying and failing to act casual. "Uh...uh, R-Robin was just...just...just explaining how chocolate is made!" She gestured hopefully towards a wrapper on her bedside table.

Raven snorted. "One: there was no sound coming from your room; two: you made us watch a documentary on chocolate, so I'm sure you already know all about it; three: I can read minds. By the way, can I have a very important word with you in private? I promise not to tell anyone about you and Robin." They both glanced at the Boy Wonder.

"I'd better go..." Robin walked out Star's door, very confused.

As soon as Robin was out of earshot, Raven jumped right in.

"I need some advice on boys. Everything you know, I want to know." Raven said, trying her best to not to get embarrassed. To her surprise, Starfire started laughing. "What?"

Raven's hallway, Teen Titan's Tower, Saturday, 7:57 PM

Beast Boy stood in front of a door, pulling at his collar and passing a bouquet from hand to sweaty hand. Yet again.

"We've gotta stop doing this," Raven said, coming towards her door. Yet again.

"Raven? What were you doing in Starfire's room at this time, just before our...dinner?" Beast Boy said, just as surprised as he was the previous day when Raven said yes. What really surprised him was the navy blue dress she had donned. She looks great Beast Boy thought. He mentally slapped himself.

"I had business to take care of," Raven answered, still thinking about what Star had told her. She was able to notice that he was wearing his best suit. "Are we going, or what?"

"Well...well, okay, if you wanna go now, then let's go..." Beast Boy turned into a hawk and started to fly north. Sighing, Raven followed. Robin's window exploded, followed by two loud thuds. "RAVEN!!" Star cried. "This just isn't our day," Robin said.
