Author's Note: Been such a long time since I made anything with the Teen Titan's but a friend got me back into writing so I'm excited to write more of this strange pairing. It will be a slow burn and special thanks to ivedonestranger for editing this...even though it's his own gift but who am I to turn down free help. This will not be rated mature for sex but for language, violence and more. Expect this to get so much darker in later chapters. Please read and review, enjoy. Sorry it's been so long and before I forget, in this story, Terra never betrayed the Titans but expect that to be a thing with my new stories, I just love her to much as a character.
The nights in Jump City, California were warm, almost too warm in the summer for Jinx's liking as she sat on the edge of the Titan's Tower West.
A cigarette in her left, ashen-colored hand was brought to her lips and she took a deep inhale before exhaling out with ease, glazing at the stars as she wondered what was beyond the world she lived in and scoffed.
She was never one for dreams, those were for kids and depressed people who were never going anywhere with their lives. No, she was a woman of action and after having a failed relationship with Kid Flash, or Wally West as she knew him who now worked with the Teen Titans South, and living with the original Teen Titans as so many called them she wondered if she could really live her life as a hero with all the blood staining her hands.
She stole, lied, manipulated, cheated and robbed during her time as a villain but never killed. Left some for dead, sure. Maybe even broke some bones or worse but never crossed the line to get what she wanted. That had to count for something, right?
She sighed out loud as she took another drag of her nicotine and smiled at the opportunity to prove herself, even if it was not an easy process to deal with.
Cyborg or Victor Stone as she was told when they were alone had done so much to make her feel at home with him and his friends, she knew that he still loved her and if she was being honest with herself, she felt the same pull but she needed time, they both did after what happened a year ago at the H.I.V.E academy and making breakfast and working out or doing missions was just not going to cut it.
It would take more effort then he hoped if they were going to erase the past, more than a few words with their troubles and baggage.
She took another drag and rubbed her eyes with her right hand as she groaned softly to herself before she exhaled the smoke out her nostrils.
"Sounds like you got something on your mind." A soft but neutral voice spoke behind her making Jinx flinch before she turned around and saw Raven wrapped in her deep blue cloak, a look of indifference on her face causing the newest Titan to let out a hollow chuckle with a small shake of her head.
"Something like that. Just wondering if I can really fit in after all the shit I've done. What got you up here? You smoke?" Jinx questioned as the seasoned veteran of teenaged heroes shook her head slowly before sitting down on the concrete underneath her, crossed her legs, closed her eyes and spoke her manta to herself, levitating a foot off the ground before she spoke.
Her cloak unraveled to reveal her black leotard, utility belt and smooth gray skin to the world which Jinx checked out without hesitation or pause, wondering if Raven wore panties underneath as she watched the woman float.
"I needed more space than inside would allow practicing my meditation and to ebb into darker and more dangerous forms of spells I've been wanting to try for when more serious villains come to town then we are used to fighting. Robin is on a blood hunt searching for Beast Boy, Terra and Cyborg for the prank they pulled on him earlier and Starfire is having some relationship trouble with Beast Boy that I don't want to deal with so I decided to come up here. I figured you were either in your room or up here since that's the only two places you're allowed to smoke." Raven answered calmly and without pausing for a breath which she did after speaking making Jinx roll her eyes.
Jinx wanted to snap back that she just because she was a hero now didn't mean she could be bossed around about where to have a cigarette but she held her tongue, she wasn't in the mood to argue tonight.
"It's rude to stare, you know," Raven commented making the sorceress blush, she should have known the half-demon would catch her in the act.
Jinx rubbed her the back of neck awkwardly before taking one last drag of her smoke and blowing out a cloud of gray smoke as she flicked the cancer stick over the edge into the freezing waters below before standing up, stretching and walked towards the exit of the roof without another word.
"Wait." Raven's voice caused Jinx to stop in her tracks and turn her head as Raven's whole body turned around to face Jinx, her eyes open but glowing white with magic.
"My….emoticlones, my emotions with different personalities inside me won't get off my back until I ask you something, Jinx." Raven's tone of voice was quiet as if she was shy or embarrassed but the look on her face was emotionless which was something Jinx understood with all she had to go through as Jinx placed her right hand on her hip and looked at Raven, intrigued with what she had to say.
"I wanted to know if you...wanted to go on night patrol with me, tomorrow night?" Raven asked as if it taken everything it had to ask such a simple question, but with Raven, Jinx would not be surprised.
"Thought it was you and Terra going tomorrow night?" Jinx said in a bored tone making Raven look away before nodding.
"It' supposed to be but I can talk to Robin and maybe change it. Please, it's...important." Raven asked slowly causing Jinx's eyes to widen, Raven saying please to anything had to be a serious matter.
"Uh, sure. I'm down for that. Let me know before bed and if Robin's cool with it then we can talk and kick some ass." Jinx responded with a smirk causing Raven to give a ghost of a smile as she gives a tiny nod before turning around and going back to her meditation.
Jinx scoffed with a smile as she once more began walking to the door to go back inside the tower.
"Jinx?" Raven's voice called out to the young woman who stopped again and looked back over her shoulder.
"Yeah?" She called out lazily.
"Is it true you're bisexual?" Raven spoke in a tone that Jinx knew for a fact made her have a blush on her face.
"Yep, and what I heard from Vic, so are you, RaeRae." Jinx laughed loudly and with an evil grin on her face as she blew a kiss, opened the door of the roof and closed it without another word.
While the half demon's gray skin was tinted as red as a tomato, rapidly chanting her manta out loud to keep her emotions and her emoticlones from going fucking batshit crazy on the warm summer night of Titan Tower West.
