The Moonlight Dance
A/N- This is my second story for Starfire and Raven. I don't own the characters in the story other than the plot that I have come up with. They belong to a very smart man who created the Teen Titans. I do accept ideas for my stories and will incorporate them the best I can into the plot. Flames are also accepted. Also if you don't like same sex partners, don't bother reading the story.
Without further ado, here is the first chapter of The Moonlight Dance.
The moonlight Dance is an annual event for the heroes to get away from their team. It's for an evening away from evil and a chance to unwind. Normally it is held on Earth in a different city each year. It was to be held inJumpCitybut the preparations were not made to hold the dance. So instead it was to be held in a different location for the first time in its 100 year history. Two prime locations for the dance were the dimension of Azarath, the home Raven; or on the Tamaranian home world of Starfire.
The titan's tower was going slow because there was no crime going on. Not even Slade was planning anything major. He was relaxing until after the dance to resume his normal activities. That was the trend with the dance: crime was zero about 2 months before the dance and 2 weeks after the petty things started to occur such as bank robberies. The major crimes started to occur about 4 months after. The break is necessary to say the least. Raven and Starfire were almost at their breaking points to say the least about it. Now what is different about this dance is that a female is supposed to invite a male and not the other way around. Invitations are only sent to the females.
Raven was on the couch with Beast Boy (her soon to ex-boyfriend) staring at her female best friend and current love interest. Starfire was fighting within her head whether to break up with Bird Boy and go after Raven. Robin whispered something into her ear that made her full of creepy crawlies. Being an empathy, Raven sensed this and noted to talk to the alien about it later.
The red head didn't hear what Robin said other than something about sleeping together and doing "other things". All Star knew is that she didn't want to do any of those things. So she called out to Raven in her head, 'Raven please help me with this. Tell me what Robin said to me,' the red head pleaded desperately to Raven. She appeared calm on the outside but the blue haired Goth knew better. She was not happy to say the least when she heard what Robin wanted to do.
Robin and Star were cuddling on one couch while Beast Boy and Raven were on the other. Raven was thinking to herself. 'I hate this. All he wants to do is get in my pants. I don't want of commitment. I would much rather do it with a girl. So much better in my opinion. At least they have emotion.' The movie that everyone was watching at the moment had ended.
"Seeing as the movie is done, what does everyone want to do? Go to bed or eat pizza at the parlor," Robin asked. To which Raven replied, "I'm going to bed for the night and so is Star." The alien shot her a grateful look. "I'm with you for getting something to eat. My stomach is in the mood for pizza. You coming Cyborg?" "My batteries need to be recharged so I'm going to bed for the night." "Alright then have a good night everyone. Robin then went to kiss Star on the lips but got her cheek instead. Beast boy managed to get a sloppy kiss on Raven's lips which left her seething mad on the inside. 'I'M SO GOING TO KILL HIM WHEN HE DOES THAT NEXT TIME…' Raven thought trying very hard not to make him into a pancake. The 2 guys left while Cyborg went to sit with 2 girls on one of the couches. "Alright spill. You look as though you want to kill someone Raven and you Star look afraid of something." He had a habit of being in the background and come out when the other 2 buys are gone.
"Okay Cy. Beast Boy keeps trying to get into my pants and I don't like him anymore. I don't want to get that serious with anyone. He pissed me off when he grabbed my ass hard and shove his tongue down my throat," Raven said with an anger that hadn't been seen since Trigon came back.
"Okay Raven. I'll go talk to him about. He hasn't listened yet and this time he will. Just break up with him then." Raven went silent when he said this. 'He can't know what Beast Boy's doing to me. He even scares me what he would do to my sister if he ever does it,' the Goth thought to herself miserably. 'I'll have to talk to Raven about that later,' thought Star. "Hey Starfire what's going on with you and Bird Boy and you? He said something and you caused you to go rigid and want to get out of his embrace." Starfire didn't answer the trying to avoid it answering it. This caused Raven to get concerned. "Starfire? Anyone home in there? You alright," asked Raven while trying not to read her thoughts.
"Can I speak to you in private Raven? I don't want Cyborg to know. Please?" She had a pleading edge to her voice that made her say yes on the spot. So she went to get ready for bed. "Hey Cy, we're going to bed. Is that alright with you?" Cyborg knew something was up but didn't push it. "That's fine with me. My batteries are literally almost dead from the day. "The small group stood up and went to hug Cyborg. Raven held on a bit longer than normal. "I'll tell you what happened tomorrow. Okay?" Raven whispered into his ear.
He nodded to the Goth. Starfire left to her room and got changed into her sleeping outfit which was a tank top with track pants. "Why can't I just go Raven and sleep with her tonight and talk to her. She has to meditate and I'll e left alone with Robin," she said to no one in particular. Raven passed by her room and felt she was frustrated and scared at the same time. "Come here Star and talk to me about your problem with Bird Boy." She was that much more grateful for Raven to be there with her. This caused the red head to leap from her bed right into Raven's bed pulling the covers over her in the process.
The lilac haired girl went to go comfort the red head alien. It was around 12 at night when the boys got home from the pizza parlor. "Hey Robin what are you doing tonight?"Going to go sleep with Starfire and maybe have sex with her. We've been dating for awhile and I think that it's time to become united as lovers." Beast Boy was smilng at this. "And I'm off to sleep with Raven again. She has a very fine piece of ass to grab." The boys went their separate ways to their respective girlfriend's rooms. They were in for a shock.
Raven had cast a spell to cast a spell to lock the doors. "Starfire wake up its Robin." No answer. "Come on open the door and let me in NOW. Fine then have it your way you bitch," Robin yelled at the locked door.
'So that's how Robin treats Starfire. He's in for a beating when me and Cy get around to it.' "Hey Star, you can talk to me about Robin." The Goth removed the blanket and went to lie down beside Starfire. She curled herself into Raven resting on her shoulder. "Okay he said that he wanted to sleep with me and do other things with me. I'm not ready to go that far! I would rather honor my planets traditions of waiting! I don't even… like….him….that anymore! He doesn't understand me like you do and my need for friendship before anything else can happen!"
Star finished her rant by crying softly into Raven's tank top. 'Robin you are dead. Now I understand her lot better and her need for friendship. She just wants a friendship where she can cuddle and be open with them. But she only has that with me and Cyborg,' Raven thought to herself happily. The alien was about to ask if she could ask when Raven said, "Yes you can stay with me for the night. It's nice having you around and comfortable." The alien gently squeezed her thanks. Star's breathing was gently evening out as sleep claimed her.
"Goodnight Starfire. Sweet dreams…" The half-breed was going to say 'love' but thought better of it. Instead of meditating, she went to the land of dreams thinking about Starfire while she was also talking to her emotions which were all happy for once that they could be expressed without the presence of Trigon. In her dreams her emotions told her to sleep with Starfire more often.
This caused Raven to have a warm feeling in her stomach. "Thank you Star for being here for me. I honestly love you for it," Raven whispered into the alien's soft red hair. She heard this and held Raven a bit tighter in response. A warm feeling started to form in Starfire's stomach as well. So Raven did something uncharacteristic of her: put her hand over Star's waist and the other around her head. They fell asleep until noon the next day.
Starfire woke up first and realized that the two of them had somehow intertwined their limbs. "Raven time to wake up. There's bacon in the kitchen waiting for you." This got the lilac haired girls mouth to water but not wake up. 'I need a better way to wake her up… Ah I got it.' The alien started to move her hand to the most ticklish spot on Raven's body which was her sides. She poked and Raven woke up with a start. At once Star assaulted her body with tickles and she was laughing hysterically.
"STOP YOU LITTLE MONKEY!" "Good to know that you're awake." And I'm not a little monkey," Starfire said pouting and looking the half breed in the eyes. 'Oh. My. God. She is so freaking cute when she does that,' Raven thought fighting the urge to kiss her then and there. "Where's my bacon that you owe me?" The alien didn't respond but instead followed her friend to the smell of bacon. What the 2 girls didn't expect to see a pissed off Bird Boy and Beast Boy.
A/N - I was going to have more in the chapter but my hands hurt like a bitch and have been typing this thing for over 2 hours. I'll upload the rest of it tomorrow morning if I can. Once again I accept ideas for my stories. Constructive criticism is also accepted.
