Here is my first chapter. I hope you all like it.


Jinx pulled back her cotton-candy hair into a loose bun, a few wayward strands falling around her face. She walked to her closet and yanked out a pair of black cargo pants and a white tank top and slipped them over her pink swimsuit, almost perfectly matching her hair. As she grabbed her flip-flops she heard a loud knock on her door. She rushed to her apartment door and opened it to a comical sight.

Standing in the doorway was her two best friends and her girlfriend. The big-boned teen, appropriately nicknamed Mammoth, who had knocked on the door, was wearing bright red trunks and a mustard yellow t-shirt. The small boy, who looked even smaller standing next to his friend, also wore brightly-colored trunks, but were more orangish than red. They were carrying a pastel striped bag, which held towels and sunscreen, and a blue cooler full of food and drinks.

Then there was her girlfriend, Becky, a fellow student at Hive Academy. She wore a jean mini-skirt and a black tube top over a green bikini. She had her long blonde hair in two braids and a pair of green sunglasses were propped on top of her head.

"Are you ready?" Jinx was startled out of her trance by Gizmo's question.

"Just about," Jinx replied as she dashed back to her bathroom. "I just need to grab a few thing," she shouted back to her friends as she grabbed a towel and stuffed it in a pink tote bag along with a bottle of new sunscreen and her favorite book.


"Come on guys!" Beastboy yelled to his friend.

"It's not like we're going to be late." Raven replied leisurely. "The beach isn't going to close anytime soon."

"We just want to get there before it gets too crowded." Robin said as he walked out of the room he shared with his girlfriend.

"Let's just go," Raven spoke sharply. As she got into the car she silently wished that something would happen to make her day better.


Jinx sat on her towel watching her girlfriend surf. She chuckled to herself as the had her ninth wipeout . Becky's head popped out of the water and she started swimming to the shore. She grabbed her board and walked up to her laughing girlfriend.

"And what, may I ask, are you laughing at?" Becky inquired with a sly smile on her face.

Jinx stopped her laughter just long enough to reply. "Oh, I just saw this girl being swept under the waves. It was quite funny." A huge grin spread across her face and, before she could start laughing again, she was attacked by a very wet girl. They playfully on top of the sand until Becky picked up the smaller girl and carried the screaming girl to the water. Jinx was tossed into the water with a big plop. She sputtered as she swallowed some salty water.

She grinned as she looked at Becky. "Oh, you just made a big mistake."


Cyborg pulled up to the parking lot and maneuvered into a small space. Everyone filed out of the car carrying towels, drinks, sunscreen, and a few other beach essentials. They walked out onto the sand and found an empty spot. Raven set up a beach umbrella while Starfire and Robin laid out towels and chairs, and Cyborg and Beastboy put up a volleyball net.

Raven sat down on her towel and took out her book as her friends started a game of volleyball. She had only read a few pages before she was interrupted by some girls shrieking. She looked up expecting to see a couple of pre-adolescent girls trying to impress overgrown males. Instead she saw a pink-haired girl with almost creamy white skin. She stared at the girls play fighting for a few minutes until they went back to their towels and laid down next to each other. She found herself wanting to be the blonde girl, who was now practically sitting on top of the cotton-candy girl.


Jinx looked down at her girlfriend, who had fallen asleep after their little adventure. She searched for her two friends who had abandoned them for a couple of bleached-blonde, fake-chested girls. She spotted them making total idiots of themselves by their attempts at flirting. She shook her head as she stood up. She started walking with her feet partially in the water, not knowing where she was going. Feeling someone looking at her she glanced up and pink eyes connected with violet eyes. She slightly smiled and blushed before she put her head back down. The girl looked so familiar but she couldn't place her. She walked back to Becky and noticed that she was awake.

"Hey, do you know that girl?" she pointed at the violet-haired girl. "Does she go to the Academy, or something?"

Becky looked at the girl and instantly recognized her. "Of course I know who she is. That's Raven, from the Teen Titans. How could you not know that?"

"Hmm," was all Jinx could say as she watched her. She felt herself drawn to this girl, the very person she wasn't even supposed to be friendly towards.

The rest of the day two girls kept stealing glances at each other hoping that one day they might meet each other, someway, somehow.
