It'd been six months since Raven had attempted to move on from the horrible experiences she suffered at the hand of Shape-Shifter. She was back to her normal cynical self, mostly. As much as she tried to insist that she was perfectly fine, Beast Boy knew her better. Some nights she still relived the scene; the pain, suffering, and misery as if it was happening all over again. When she did, she always had comforting arms to crawl into.

Right now, they had the tower to themselves. The wedding had been two days ago, but both Raven and Beast Boy had been too tired to do anything aside from sleep. Robin and Starfire were helping the Titans North figure out their Tower, along with Cyborg. They'd be back tomorrow, but this was tonight. It started out so innocent with just one kiss. One kiss that grew deeper and deeper. The deeper it got, the hungrier each other's bodies became. Afraid it was going too fast, Gar stopped.

"Raven? If you want me to stop, just say something. Okay?"

Raven nodded as passion and lust overtook them as day overtook the night.


Raven awoke drenched in dried sweat and in Gar's arms. She rolled over, becoming face to face with the green changeling. Gar opened his eyes and kissed Raven. She looked surprised.

"What was that?" She asked.

"I just wanted to kiss you."

Raven blushed before sitting up. She looked around the room before seeing her clothes, and underclothes, strewn along one side of the bedroom. It finally dawned on her that she was naked. Suddenly the covers were ripped off of her, leaving her body exposed. She was pulled down back to the mattress. Gar put an arm around her before kissing her. A tear rolled down Raven's cheek and it didn't take long for Gar to notice. He got off of her and pulled her into a hug as sobs racked Raven's body. Once she quit crying, Raven moved out of his arms and began to pick her clothes up off the floor.

"I think we should just get on with the day before the others get back."


Raven and Beast Boy were tidying up the Tower. They had taken out trash and done dishes and laundry. Once they had finished, they sat down on the couch. Raven leaned over and kissed Gar.

"I'm sorry about this morning." She said.

"It's fine, I crossed the line. For that, I'm sorry." He leaned over and kissed her.

Cyborg, Robin, and Starfire walked in. Starfire giggled at her two friends who were too busy to notice that they'd returned. Cyborg was the one to break them up.

"You having fun?"

Both Raven and Beast Boy blushed furiously upon being caught. Raven pulled up her hood over her face to hide it. Beast Boy laughed nervously.

"How was your night?" Raven asked, attempting to move on from the awkward.

Starfire responded. "Oh it was most glorious! Yet I am still happy to be home, I should go check on Silkie."

Once the three had unpacked, Robin decided it was time to train. The Titans trained in the gym for a while before they had decided to go out for pizza.

They sat on the roof of the pizza place in their usual table.

"So, how was your night?" Cyborg asked, causing Raven and Beast Boy to exchange awkward glances to each other.

"It went fine, we watched a movie. It was a rather boring night."

"Well, I'm glad to hear that you enjoyed your night alone." Robin added onto the conversation before turning back to his pizza slice,

Beast Boy and Raven turned facing the other. Raven winked at him before turning back to finish eating.

Once the pizza was gone, they paid for the meal and went home.


Gar led Raven into their room. Raven faced the other direction before removing her leotard and cloak to change into her pajamas. She lied down on the bed next to Gar with a seductive look in her eyes. She felt that she had to make it up to him for that morning.
