A/N: This story is told from mainly Bart Allen's point of view, might switch at points and it's about his relationship with Raven, I know she wasn't in Young Justice but I put her, Starfire and Cyborg into this story as it's basically Teen Titans in Young Justice. Since Season 3 recently came out this story and the other story it links with (Face from the past) can now be considered an Alternate Universe. Cover image penciled and inked by myself.
Bart's POV:
My vision was blurred as my eyes fluttered open, and unusually my vision didn't focus itself and become clear as it usually did, I had to rub my eyes a few times before that happened. I sighed inwardly and let myself fall back into my pillow. After lying there staring at the ceiling for a few seconds letting my mind go blank I turned to look over at the clock on my bedside table; it read 5:35 AM . Damn so early! Time always drags on for a speedster. As I let my mind drift it kept bringing up the image of a certain someone. The one person I wanted to see today, I know she doesn't sleep at regular times and can be up when no one else will be, but still, I'd never tried to see her this early before. The girl I'm thinking about is Rachel Roth, or as she's better known as, Raven. I'd gone into her room in Titans Tower rather early before to find her up and dressed, hovering a few feet above the floor cross legged, fingers pinched together in a meditative pose, surrounded by candles and incense sticks, the wisps of smoke from them spiraling around her, the different scents all combining into one and filling my nostrils, and a book filled with crazy symbols that I couldn't comprehend open in front of her. Then when I entered her room at the same time another day, she was sleeping. So going in today and this early could end up in either situation. I'd told myself to hold on for as long as I could, I never want to be too early, everyone loves their sleep, I'm sure even a half-demon, half-human sorceress loves her sleep too. Still I haven't seen her in about a week at least, I really miss her, I'm hoping she's missed me as much but I wouldn't count on it.
I'll surely be wide awake by the time I make the run from Central City to Titans Tower, you see, I live at the Garrick's house right now, but I also have a room at Titans Tower, I just hardly use it. I was going to live with Barry, but he has enough on his plate with my Dad and Aunt Dawn on the way, jeez that sounds weird out loud, but anyway he doesn't need me in the house too, and after the battle with Darkseid it showed my speed surpasses even Barry's, so it was decided that a seasoned speedster like Jay could be a better person to teach me how to control it. Anyway, I met Raven the day Darkseid invaded and I happened to saved her life, she and the alien girl from Tamaran, Starfire and the half-robot, half-human man Cyborg appeared and aided in the battle.
A/N: (If you want to read the battle scene it will be my second chapter, but it's more of a filler, but if you like action it'll be a good one to read and it adds more depth to the relationship of Bart and Raven.)
After we de-briefed on the watchtower it was decided that a new team was being founded, involving Raven, Starfire and Cyborg, but a few people already in the other teams were being transferred into the team, it would be much like the one Wally was in before we operated with the League. I was chosen to go into this new team as I didn't actually fit in with my current team. Beast Boy also joined, In the end the team consisted of Tim, Cassie, Beast Boy, Raven, Starfire, Cyborg and I, with Tim as the leader. We were named the Titans and we soon had our own base of operations, Titans Tower. We've been operational for about 3 or 4 months now, and Raven and I have been friendly since I saved her life. I'm the one she speaks to most, the one she shares stuff with and the one she trusts, I am also the only one she gave the code to her room to, not that I need it anyway, I can vibrate through the door anyhow. But I usually respect her privacy.
I sighed again and looked over at the clock. it now read 5:55 AM, I couldn't stand it any longer, I got up put on my suit, pulled the goggles over my eyes and wrote a note telling the Garrick's, where I was going, I was so excited I didn't actually realize I was using my powers until the pen was smoking. I quickly blew on it and sped out of the house and over to Titans Tower. Nothing like the cold morning air against your face to wake you up. I came to a stop right outside Raven's door, I knew the door makes a fair amount of noise in the morning and so I vibrated through, I know I shouldn't have but I did. I looked over to the bed to see Raven still asleep, I smiled to myself as I looked at her, I was happy she was still asleep, she looks so calm and at peace, finally being able to get relief from bottling up all her emotions. I have some idea of what that's like, I put up the facade of being hyperactive and joyful to make the other heroes warm up to me, but really I come from a future that made me very serious. But Raven has it 10 times worse. She's only told me a little about how she has to keep her emotions in check as her powers are connected to them, but not much more. I hope she will in time. As I walked towards her bed I took in her good looks. Her indigo hair, her extremely pale, grey looking, but incredibly soft and smooth skin, her hourglass form hidden under the sheets, her body was amazing for a girl her age, she was more well endowed than most girls the same age. She had hips like a grown woman and large breasts on a very small and youthful frame, not that I'd been looking! OK, I'd totally been looking. As I thought that Raven shifted in her sleep, the sheets slipping down, revealing her breasts, her perfectly round, full, soft looking ... I stopped myself right there, realizing how perverted this was, I was looking at Raven, my best friend Raven's breasts as she slept, what a weirdo I was! I sped over to the bed and pulled the sheets back up. Unfortunately the sudden movement caused Raven to stir and as her eyes adjusted she almost blasted me with her magic, until she realized I was the only one who could get into her room. She rubbed her eyes. "Oh Bart I know it's you, but why have you come in the middle of the night?" she said in her cynical sounding deadpan voice, despite that I did love her voice, I found it strangely soothing. I smiled "Actually Rae it's the morning, just very early." I replied. Being the middle of November it was still dark around this time. Raven sighed "It's only because you're my best friend that I'm not killing you right now" Raven said, I smiled, guess I was right, even she likes her sleep, as Raven sat up her sheet dropped again, but this time she caught it before it revealed her boobs but it still showed her cleavage and I could see the top of her dark nipples peeking over the top. I blushed and looked away. "Yeah... I forgot about that, close your eyes Bart." Raven said as she realized she was naked. I did as I was told even though I'd have loved to see, I heard some shuffling about and clothes being picked up off the floor, after a few more seconds of silence I heard Raven's voice again "You can open them now." I opened my eyes and was met with the image of Raven in a blue zip up hoodie and pink panties. She climbed back into bed and motioned for me to join her. I got in bed with her and we rolled over to look at each other. "So what brings you here so early?" she asked me after I stared into her violet eyes, the eyes that make me fall deeper in love with her the more I look, "Just wanted to see you." I answered as I brushed a strand of her hair away from her eyes. Raven smiled for once, "Well whilst I do like my privacy, and my sleep you are an exception. you did save my life after all." At that moment I thought back to the when I first met the beautiful girl I was staring at.
