Prologue

Important AN: Episodes Birthmark, The Prophecy and The End 1-3 have already happened. I know it's weird but it's my story and it works better this way.

They had just defeated trigon and were having a party downstairs. When Raven disappeared he went looking for her. He found her sitting on the edge of the roof watching the sunset. "Hey" Raven looked up as he sat next to her. "What are you thinking about?" he asked. "Just the future, I never thought I'd have a chance to really live" "And now you have your whole life ahead of you" Robin told her. "Yeah and I think would like to try something new." Raven had a wistful look in her eyes. "Like what?" Robin's curiosity took over. "….nothing forget I mentioned it" Raven hadn't been paying attention to what she had been saying and didn't want to go into this with him. "Come on you can tell me" Robin said. "Promise you won't laugh" "Promise. You can trust me" Robin looked into her eyes. "Ok well…" a bit of pink crept up into her cheeks. "I kind of like someone and now that Trigon is gone I'll be able to show more emotion than before" Jealousy surged through Robin. "Who do you like?" Raven just shook her head. "I'll tell you who I like" Raven met his gaze. Ravens curiosity got the better of her and she asked "Who" "Well, it's you" The windows on this side of the tower below them shattered, all 20 of them.

"Robin.." Her face was bright red. "You, you like me" "Of course. You pretty, smart, you can fight and that's just the beginning of it" Robin moved a little closer. "I never thought anyone would like someone like me….let alone you of all people." Raven said shocked. "What do you mean 'let alone me'? What sets me apart from every other guy out there" Robin wanted to know where she was going with this. "I mean you're perfect. Your handsome, strong, brave, not to mention you're the protégé of Batman. And I'm just dark little half demon who almost destroyed the world." Raven muttered looking at the little bit of the sun that had yet to set. "Raven never down grade yourself. You're amazing. Any guy would be lucky to have you." Raven looked back at him "Thank you. Hearing that from you, you don't know how much it means to me." "Well your welcome. Now you still need to tell me who you like" Robin wasn't planning on letting her skip out on her end of their deal. "Uhh well…" "How about I guess" Robin offered. He was planning on killing the guy who held Raven's heart. "Sure. But if you don't get it in five guesses I don't have to tell you" She smirked, he would never guess it. "Fine, I can ask five questions but I have to have the correct answer by the end of the last question." Robin said thinking this will be easy, I am one id the greatest detectives ever after all. "Deal"

"Ok, so it is a guy right?" Raven gave him a 'you're kidding right' look. "Right, it's a guy. Is he a full Titan?" Robin asked since there were after all a lot of honorary Titans around the globe. Raven nodded. "Does the team see him more than four times a month?" Again Raven nodded. "Is he part of the Titans East?" Robin asked trying to narrow it down. "No" she simply said. "Does he live in this tower?" Raven nodded getting nervous. Robin nodded thinking. Let's see, only Cy, BB, and me. Beastboy annoys her WAY too much for it to be him. And her and Cyborg…they have more of a brother sister relationship. So that means it must be... "Me" Robin looked at her questioningly. Raven wouldn't look at him. I shouldn't have let him guess. "Raven, is it me?" He took her silence as a yes. "Why didn't you ever say anything?" "I was supposed to destroy the earth Robin. I wouldn't have been able to be in a relationship with you, fully knowing what I was destined to do." Robin slid her hand into his and squeezed it gently. Raven looked at him and he caught her in a surprise kiss. Even in the dark he could see her eyes shining when he pulled back.

Robin walked her to her room that night after the other Titans went to bed. Both had agreed that it was better to wait and let their relationship develop more before they told the team. They spent the next week meeting in her room at night and stealing a kiss here and there in the dark corners of the tower.
