A/N: The wanted sequel of Bond Problems! Maybe an intended 8 chapters. This "future fic" is only about 5 years into the future, not 10. And I'm starting with the lemony stuff right away… The title is after an Avenged Sevenfold song.

Disclaimer: This will be mentioned only once. I do not own anything of Teen Titans. I don't own the lyrics to or the songs of Avenged Sevenfold.

Somewhere life is good, and things go as they should

It's hard to find, but that's all right, yeah

Searching for the way, push harder every day

It's deep inside, that shining light, yeah

But I'm scarred, by barriers placed in my path

Unscathed

Chapter 10

Richard Grayson walked into his apartment, to be met by his fiancée, Rachel Roth. The two had been together for the past four years after the Titans ended. Koriand'r, known also as Starfire, had gone back to Tamaran to rule when Richard had chosen to be with Raven. Garfield Logan was now an infamous actor, and Victor Stone owned a car mechanic shop. The four still kept in touch, although Kori was not as frequent.

Rachel and Richard were supposed to get married in two more months. The two decided to move in together around four months ago, which madder the engagement slightly easier. The smell of something burning reached Richard's nose and he ran towards the kitchen.

"Rae, are you okay?" He heard a groan in reply.

"Yeah, I'm great. But this stupid ramen isn't." He looked at the mess inside the microwave. "You seriously burnt the ramen? How is that possible?"

"I don't even fucking know. It just… exploded." Richard bit his lip to keep from laughing at her. Last time he openly laughed at her, several things were thrown and broken, along with him sleeping on the couch for a very long time.

He kissed her on the forehead before moving towards the microwave to remove the burning ramen. "You do realize that you can burn just about anything, right?" Rachel glared at him. "Well, I don't see you cooking anything decent!"

"Do you want me to cook you something decent?" Rachel nodded. "Well, what do you want?"

Rachel smirked. "I want a fluffy French egg omelet with a side of turkey bacon, some grilled salmon, and a glass of freshly squeezed orange juice." Richard raised an eyebrow. "Is that all?"

Rachel nodded as Richard sighed. "Well, I think I can make that… by next week."

"Well, what if I want it now?" Richard moved closer to her and leaned so his lips were next to her ear.

"Maybe I could give you something better…" he huskily whispered in her ear. Rachel grabbed his face and pulled it towards hers. Their lips crashed onto each other before finally settling down into a familiar rhythm.

His tongue found the inside of her mouth while his hands travelled down her back to cup her butt. She moaned into his mouth and wrapped her arms around his neck to pull him closer. His hands released her butt and grabbed the back of her thighs to pull her up. She wrapped her legs around his waist and together, he carried her towards the couch. He dropped her onto her back and he put his knee between her legs as her took off his shirt. He watched her lust-filled eyes travel down his body, trailing over his 6-pack down even further…

He grabbed the bottom of her shirt and pulled it over her head, showing her sports bra. He kissed her neck as his hand grabbed her leg to pull their centers closer to each other. He could feel her heat close to him and he slowly began grinding into her. They both moaned and he kissed her shoulder. He dragged down the strap of her bra with his teeth before repeating the same to the other. He moved towards her cloth-covered bust and placed light kisses on each of the slightly hard nipples. He then began to lick and suckle them through her bra. She began to press his head closer to her, leaving him to be heavenly smothered. His hand reached under her bra and pulled it over her head before returning his attention to her breasts. He weighed one out in his hand as he used his mouth and tongue on the other.

He switched breasts before continuing down her stomach. He reached the top of her shorts before starting to pull them down. She pulled him back up so that they could both pull of their pants. While doing all of this, Rachel had managed to get on top of Richard and was looking at his hard member through his boxer-briefs. She glanced at up at him as he waited expectantly.

She began to slowly and carefully stroke him through his boxers when the doorbell rang. They both groaned and turned to glare at the door. The person at the door continued to knock on the door erratically. Rachel exhaled slowly and dangerously through her nose before grabbing her bra off the ground. Her shirt had been thrown somewhere in the room, so she grabbed Dick's off the floor and haphazardly buttoned it.

She stormed to the door as Richard tried to slightly calm himself down a little. Rachel finally opened the door before dangerously, yet calmly saying, "What?"

Garfield stood in front of their door, his fist raised in knocking form and his eyes wide. "H-hey, Rachel… You're not going to hurt me right now, right?"

"Depends. What would I need to hurt you for?" Garfield stood with his hands dropped tightly down by his sides. His eyes quickly glanced at Rachel's chest before quickly replying, "Oh, nothing."

Rachel glared at him. "What do you want, Gar?" The former Titan looked down towards his feet before meekly asking if he could come in. Rachel opened the door wide enough for him to enter and he quickly looked for Richard anywhere that he could. He found said man sitting on the couch casually with his pants on and no awkward positions. "Hey, Dick. Listen… I really need to tell you something." He nervously glanced at Rachel before quickly adding, "Privately."

"Whatever you want to say to me you can say in front of Rachel." The look in her eyes said, 'Good answer.' Garfield sighed. "Well, you're not going to like it all that much…"

"Just say it, Gar. If it's that important, you can just come out with it."

Garfield took a deep breath. "Starfire's back in town, and she's looking for you."

A little short, but… effective. And exploding ramen is possible; I have done it many times.
