Yo. Second chapter, a RobRae. What can I say? The two are perfect for one another. Wrote this at three in the morning, sorry for any grammatical errors. Anyways, enjoy:D


Rain clouds had come to play, lightening dancing in the sky. Melodramatic rumbling of thunder echoed in the background; raindrops trickled down the foggy windowpane. Dark, heavy clouds covered the night sky, hiding the stars, disguising the silver orb of moon.

The dark witch of Titans Tower stood at the windowpane, watching with wide orbs as the storm progressed. Midnight, or later, all the others were asleep in their rooms, the natural opera tuned out by their dreams. Cloak hood was raised, hiding her lilac hair, shading her violet pools.

Lurking in the shadows, she stared in silent awe as the storm continued its dramatic show of power. The aroma of rain filled the Tower, invigorating her, filling her lungs with its electrifying scent. She sighed, eyes sparkling like that of a child, utterly enjoying the thunderstorm. Unlike others, she found peace in them, not fear. Storms made her feel free, made her spirit fly.

Childish urges filled every fiber of her body; she resisted, trying to restrain herself. What if the others were to awaken to find her? But, the others were all asleep, resting comfortably in their own rooms, sleeping soundly.

Ambling towards the door in somewhat of a daze, she waltzed out of the Tower, into the torrents of rain. Dropping her hood off her head, she stared upwards into the storm, looking at the dark gray clouds. Outstretching her arms, she gyrated slowly, welcoming the rainfall to crash down upon her, sopping her hair and clothes.

Wane smile washed over her face as she breathed in the intoxicating fresh rain aroma, happy. Licking a few droplets of her lips, she stopped her circling, standing in the downpour. Cloak now clung to her skin, cold seeping over her. Chills ran up her spine, pinprick bumps forming on her arms. Smile drained off visage, she closed her violet orbs.

Forbidden emotions-angst, lust, love, passion-coursed through her veins. She loved him, but never could she admit it to him; consequences of ultimate proportions would take place, hurting him, hurting herself. Her emotions resulted in pain; her dark powers prevented her from loving another. Really loving another. Confessing it, living it out. And if she couldn't love, then no one could possibly love her back. Life wasn't a fairy tale; there were no fairy godmothers that granted wishes. Life was unfair, and Raven knew this from first hand experience. Life was unfair.

Tears formed in the corners of her eyes, as she plopped down on the soaking ground, pulling her knees to her chest. Chin placed on knees, a tear managed to roll down her cheek forcing dark energy to radiate off her in waves, merging with the droplets that were crashing towards the ground. Another bead of sadness flowed down her cheeks, one after another, flow increasing. Sobs wracked her body, silenced by the thunder of a million drums.

"Raven?" Voice of uncertainty rung out, louder than the weather. Gloved hand was placed on her shoulder, meant to comfort her. Raven turned around half way, looking up at her interrupter, Robin.

Bloodshot violet orbs locked onto masked ones. Robin's lips turned downwards in a frown, one of worry and concern. Kneeling to her level, he searched for an answer in her pools, failing to find one.

"Raven, what's wrong?" She broke away from his grip, cradling her head in her hands, final tears slipping out of the corner of her eyes. She shook her head, signaling that nothing was wrong.

Grabbing her chin, he forced her to look at him, masked orbs resting upon her, softening slightly. "Please, Raven, tell me what's wrong."

Violet orbs darted away from his gaze, running from eye contact. "You wouldn't understand." Placid lyrics replied, no amount of emotion apparent in her tone. Boy Wonder sighed, inching closer to the girl, pulling her close. At first she resisted his touch, flinching away from it, but soon allowed him to pull her into his lap. Placing her head on his chest, he wrapped his arms around her, rocking her slightly, trying his hardest to comfort the girl.

"You'd be surprised. Just tell me." He whispered into her ear, stroking her aubergine locks. Her chest heaved as she sighed, endeavoring to keep the emotions that raged through her at bay.

She looked up at him with her large pools that glistened with fresh tears. Sunken, violet orbs glinted hungrily as more rain found its way upon the two figures. Shadows danced as lightening struck once again, causing thunder to roar. The storm was approaching, the rain becoming fiercer, the lightening and thunder more frequent.

"I can't feel. I can't love. These barriers I've created for myself, these emotional barriers, they're failing. Weakening. But if I show my true feelings, then someone gets hurt. Always." Her voice lowered, her eyes saddened. Robin pushed the girl away from him for a moment, gaze piercing through her orbs, possibly even looking into her soul. His usually rather spiky hair had flattened, retaining much rainwater.

"You don't even believe that do you? Raven, you can feel. You can love. You love Cyborg and Star and Beast Boy, don't you?" His gaze never left her, but softened as he said this last statement, once again pulling her close, continuing to stroke her hair. "Don't you see Raven? You feel everyday."

Nuzzling her, he pressed his lips against her head, holding her like that for what seemed like several minutes.

"Robin…I-I love you." Barely audible, she broke free of his grasp, staring into his masked orbs.

Gloved hands grabbed her bare ones, squeezing them tightly. His lips turned upwards into a sweet smile as he brushed away a few stray strands of violet. Leaning forwards, he placed his mouth near her ear, smile never leaving his visage.

"I love you too." He whispered. A rare, genuine smile flooded onto Raven's face, which for once, was full of emotion. Amethyst pools sparkled, as she reached a wavering hand towards his mask, requesting permission to pull it off. He nodded, and she unsteadily ripped it off, revealing the eyes she had been desperately wanting to see. Pools of deep azure, flecked with icy blue. Electrifying, beautiful. Orbs locked together, as Robin leaned closer, turning his head slightly.

Wrapping his arms around her, they pulled together, the space between them closing. As if drawn by a magnetic force, their lips crashed together, not caring if it were storming. The world seemed to freeze for a moment as their kiss continued.

The thunder sang of its finale as the rain slackened, then decreased to a light sprinkle. All activity in the sky came to a halt as the clouds cleared, revealing a beautiful full moon--a silver orb whose light was like magic, whose shadowy illumination gently fell upon the two.

Breaking apart, they gazed into each other's eyes a few more moments. Robin stroked her cheek lovingly. "I love you, Raven." Nodding, she bit her lip, and replied. "I love you too. So much." Reveling in their love, they just sat as the storm cleared all together, and the silver orb of moon began to disappear.

"We better head back. Don't want to catch a cold." Robin uttered, lost in her pools of amethyst. She smiled dreamily, as Robin stood up, offering his hand. She gladly took it, and was pulled upwards. Swinging her into his arms, he carried her bridal style back to the Tower, their T shaped sanctuary.


Ending sucks, oh well. Get used to it. Someone review, reviews make everything better.
