"I'm trusting you, Raven out of everyone you're the most trustworthy." The Titan's leader spoke firmly to the goth. Raven stared at the leader pondering the fact the he may have lost all functions of reasoning.
"But-" She started but was cut off by his gloved hand.
"No but's I've been planning this trip for weeks and I know the two boy's won't cross you."
"I can handle Cyborg it's the green one that doesn't listen to me." She stated. Frustration ran through her as she thought about the changeling, since returning from Tokyo, Beast Boy had changed completely. The green teen shot up like bean stalk, almost overnight. He suddenly had burst of confidence and soon didn't care what the others thought of him. He left whatever awkward adolescent behavior in Japan. She had tried to ignore his cockiness but it was hard to miss his lack of morals. She could only guess how many girls had seen the inside of his bedroom, or how many nights he hadn't made it back home at all.
The past year in half had been hard on the two's friendship. Raven hated this new behavior that he had accepted and practiced. She never questioned it though, never spoke a word to anyone about how deep down it killed her to know that he was seeking out all the wrong girls.
Sluts.
Robin let out a sigh and muttered that he would talk to him. Raven just rolled her eyes. With the leader taking the alien princess for an overnight trip, it was going to turn into two lonely days for Raven. She may be able to convince Cyborg to hang out with her but even that was going to be a stretch since as of late the robot man had taken fondly to a member at the Titan's East. So with Cyborg being preoccupied and the foolish one doing god knows what with god knows who, that left just her. Omitted once again. It shouldn't have bothered her, she was the one always shutting people out. Would she have it any other way? No, she was the always the lone one. The odd one. Alone all the time. Just like she preferred it, or least how she use to. There was just a huge difference from being alone and being lonely. Sighing softly she accepted Boy Wonder's demands knowing that it was going to be the longest two days of her life.

Walking down the hallway Raven pace quicken as she approached the common room. She had just talked to Cyborg, and confirmed her intuition, about a lonely weekend. Cyborg asked, well plead, that with the lack of a leader he too was going to take off for the weekend. With empty promises of owing the mysterious girl, she finally just relinquished to him. How was she suppose to keep him there anyways? He was older and ten times bigger than her. Besides she wasn't going to deny him from seeing someone he truly cared about. She wasn't that mean. So that meant it was just her in the tower. Defending Jump City by herself? Check. Spending the weekend in her bedroom? Double Check.
She rushed into the common room after hearing a loud clatter outside. She stepped in and saw Beast Boy bent over picking up shards of broken glass. Searching the area she noted that there was various items were strewn around the counter. Wondering what on god's green earth he was doing she moved down and towards the kitchen.
"What are you doing?" He jumped at the sound of her voice, sending pieces of glass back on to the ground. Clutching his chest he turned and gazed up at her.
"Jesus Raven, you scared the hell out of me." He replied. He picked up the remaining pieces and with his hands full he stood and walk over to the trash can. He flashed her a grin and moved back to his side of the counter. "I heard that Mr. stick up the ass and his beauty ditz have left the building. It's a miracle right?" A glare formed on her face, the way he talked about their friends was so repulsive. She could only imagine what sort of names he had come up for her.
Psychotic Bitch
Instantly she could his voice in her head as she continued to glare up at him. Fueling the anger she felt for him she moved towards the fridge. Reaching her hand inside she pulled out a small bowl and shut the door. She noticed that he was continuing to make a horrendous mess. Exhaling slowly she fought to pound his cocky ass into the ground right there. She turned on her foot and instead of repeating the unanswered question she decided to stick to the normal behavior that they had developed for each other. "Clean up after yourself." She retorted over her shoulder. Then added, "I'm not your mother." She heard him scoff then mutter under his breath, "Thank god."With her blood boiling she removed herself out and away from the ignorant twit.
That's how it went with them now, don't ask, don't tell. He wasn't going to share his plans for the evening and she was just going to pretend that she didn't care that some sleaze was going to be humping his brains out. It didn't matter. Muttering to herself she smiled, 'Maybe he'll get crabs.' Her fingers gently pushed inside the bowl picking up the small blueberry. If he didn't already have some sort of STD, she would be shocked. She popped her favorite fruit into her mouth and walked back towards her room.

After letting out some anger and frustration on the punching bag, that ironically was a faded green color, she moved to the shower. Sitting in the shower she found herself wondering if this was something she could expect for the rest of her time as a Titan. Isolated off from the rest of her team. She had fought with herself over and over again on the matter, each time always coming out with the same conclusion. Wincing she looked down at her bloody knuckles and flexed her hand. Maybe she had got a little to far. Focusing on the pain, her skin began to regrow over the cuts. Washing the remaining blood off, she flexed again seeing no more damage. God how she hated that little imbecile. She hated everything about him. From his annoying grin that was constantly plastered on his face, to his absurd remarks that he always threw out at any given time. She hated how he walked around thinking that he was absolutely perfect, and how every girl wanted the perfect night with him. As if a real woman would ever do that. No, only dumb blond bimbos. It made her curious as to what they really wanted, it couldn't be that he was great in bed, and since she never saw them leaving his room, that showed that they weren't looking for bragging purposes. That meant only two things. One the girls were either to drunk to realize that they were letting a green man seduced them, or he had worked out some deal not to get the press involved. She figured it was both cases.
The thing that she absolutely loathed the most was that no matter how many times she fought with herself about it, deep down she didn't hate him at all. Down in her human soul the green obnoxious one had pierced her cold heart. Despite his childish behavior and sudden idiocracy, even she the misunderstood one, had fallen for him.
Climbing out of the shower she dressed quickly hoping to get some tea in before heading in for the night. Stepping into the hall the smell of cheap perfume filled her nose. Raising her hand to her nose she glared at the darkness. That little fucker had brought someone in before it was even dinner time. Contemplating whether tea was actually worth it she decided that it was her home too, she had every right to be here. Shaking out her hair she puffed and began trudging towards the common room. Maybe if she was lucky the girl would get standoffish when she saw another female lived here.
The door opened and Raven eyes took a second to focus. After a brief second she realized that the shapeshifter not only had a girl over, but had many girls over. Her jaw clenched up as she stared. Beast Boy turned and saw the new comer and giggled.
"Ladies this is Raven." He introduced "Raven meet the ladies." Six girls turned and all gaped at her. They were all blond, and skinny. 'figures.' she thought. Most glared but there were two that did wave towards her. After a few seconds of letting the shock wear off, Raven moved down the stairs and to her tea cabinet. She ignored the girls snickers and instead tried to add up the number of IQ's that were in the room. Besides hers, she came up with a good solid 140, and that was being nice. Grabbing her mug and tea she waited as the water boiled.
"Who invited the goth chick?" came a whisper. Raven could only smirk slightly. 'Oh please let this turn into an awkward conversation.' she begged. Hearing Beast Boy mutter something under his breath and then she heard the another girl speak up.
"Is this the girl that you were telling us about, you know the one who can't feel empathy?"
Well that took the number down to a 120. She shook her head and poured in the boiling water. So Beast Boy was the same no matter who he was with. He never knew quite how to shut up. Her anger peaking she realized how she could turn this situation around.
"She my team-" Raven turned with her mug and cut Beast Boy off.
"Please, Beast Boy, don't be modest!" She spoke carefully using this to advantage. "I'm sure you all have heard all about me." Her hand raised to her chest as she played the part. Confused looks formed on all their faces as some turned towards Beast Boy for explanation. A weird "uh" sounded off from his green lips as he wasn't sure what to say.
Catching his eye she smirked slightly, "I'm sure that Beast Boy has told you all about our wild nights together. You may have experience all his weird fantasies for yourselves, but if you haven't, consider yourself lucky." An awkward silence could be felt in the small room, which only made Raven go on with her act. "Now don't get me wrong he tries his best but him being part animal doesn't help in the bedroom area. When all the parts are working properly the poor guy has to overcompensate for his lack of a penis." A small gasp sounded off from the group. "Anyways, you guys have fun, and be sure to use protection, heavens knows how many girls have been dissatisfied by this green machine." With a swift nod towards Beast Boy, who was now sporting a new mortified look, Raven walked out of the over crowded room.
Gratification pumped through Raven as she walked down the hall towards her bed room. She was just near her door when she heard a growl. Glaring she turned towards the noise.
"What the fuck is wrong with you?" Beast Boy yelled
"Oh besides the usual? Or do you mean something else?"
"I can't believe you did that! All those girls left and now I look like a total freak." He spat he towered over her causing her back up into the door.
"Feels good huh? Being The freak." She retorted He scoffed and glared down at her
"Something is wrong with you."
"Yeah? And please tell me, oh wise one, something I don't know." Scoffing at him she gritted her teeth at him. "Jump city is full of girls with daddy issues I'm sure you can still get some new STD before the night is over."
"Jealous bitch." Ah there it was the name calling that she was so use to. She chuckled under her breath.
"See actually that's were you're mistaken. I'm not jealous of you, I could have any guy that I want or girl for that matter, unlike you I'm mature. I don't need sexual pleasure to fix my insecurities." She remarked. Her heart was pounding hard in her rib cage, the lights began to flicker from her magic. It was a warning that if he continued to push her it wouldn't be long before all the bulbs would burst.
"You can have anyone? Bull shit, You can't even get a second glance." It was a low blow coming from him, but what was she to expect, his hatred for her had only grow over the past years. His chest was heaving in and out so hard it was lightly brushing against hers with every inhaled breath he took.
"You of all people would know what it's like to have second glances huh? People can't stop ogling you when ever you walk by. Tell me Greenie, what's that like?" She seethed at him. Standing on her tip toes she could smell the scent of his cinnamon tooth paste. Curse the fact that he had grown up. It was much easier to hate him when he smelled of old gym socks, and tofu. Narrowing his eyes he slammed his hand against the door nearly missing her ear. She didn't even blink as he spat out the next words,
"I'm sure it doesn't compare to being a demon."
Pop!
The whole hallway blacked as light bulbs exploded in cased in black energy.
"Leave me the fuck alone." She whispered. Glaring at him she then melted into her door. He slammed his fist again on the door and shouted, "Fuck you!" He knew it was childish of him but he didn't care he was going to be damned if she got in the final word.
Huffing softly she stood inside her room. Her hands were white knuckled as she fumed. How dare he talk to her like that. He was suppose to be her friend. With her left hand, she unclenched and forcefully wiped away the single tear that had leaked out. So much for a peaceful night. Shaking softly with a red face, she moved towards her bed. Sleep wasn't going to come easy as the sound of his voice played like a record that had a scratch, over and over in her head. 'Being a demon, demon, demon.'
