Hi! This is my first attempt at a Teen Titans fic.it's based on the
animated series. I hope you like.
~I do not own any of these characters. If I did I would hug myself. But I don't. So now I'll go in a corner and cry. ~
For all these years she had set up fences around herself, fences that stung and burned those who tried to break them. It had worked. She had sunk deep into herself, her inner being and explored who she was while blocking out the rest of the world. Yet for all her time spent in her own mind, she hardly knew herself.
She didn't play the video or computer games or eat junk food. To them she was an outsider, she decided. She didn't belong. But she didn't really belong anywhere. She had nowhere to go and so she might as well stay. They didn't care. Not really, deep down.
That was what she decided.
And so it went on, her fences keeping them away from her. Sure, they were 'friends', in a distant sort of way. They fought the bad guys together; they had been through some rough times. She supported them, and they supported her. But they laughed, they joked, and they goofed off. She rarely joined in their antics, and when she did so she quiet and unenthusiastic. They were nothing more than friends. Or so she thought.
It took her a while to realize it. At first she scorned him, and she had good reason to. They were total opposites. The Bird and the Beast. Then it all sort of...changed. When he smiled, she melted inside. He had tunneled under her fences and broken through to the her she didn't know. She sighed when he told stupid jokes and flung him out windows when he tried to peek into her room. But she watched him. And then he smiled at her.
And Raven smiled back.
