Authors note: Hi everyone! Thank you all for the wonderful reviews and support J it really means a lot. I will be sure to put your excellent advice to good use and make the chapters longer and more detailed. So everyone I thought I should tell you, those of you who actually follow this story, that since I am too busy to update on weekdays I will do my absolute best to update this story every weekend J Now please I need ideas of how to add Cheshire in this! I was thinking that she could have converted into a titan like Jinx or should I keep her as an assassin and keep that element of danger and suspense? Please let me know! :D
Disclaimer: I do not own teen titans and if I did you would be sure that it would still be on TV and I am not talking as Chibi style (I love those but honestly! The slight darkness of the storyline of teen titans is what made the show so popular in the first place, at least for me it did). So please do not sue me! :D
"So Ladies where to first? Shoes, accessories, make up? Or let's just get right down to business and shop for the gowns?" Bumblebee asked as the girls each received one of Starfire's bone crushing hugs and finally managed to detangle themselves and were now clutching their stomachs in an effort to remember how to breathe.
"Let's just get the hardest part over with and go shopping for the…gowns ugh! Then we'll take a lunch break and see about everything else" Jinx said with a groan.
"I agree" Raven said with a grimace.
"Good idea!" Kole added in.
"Yes wondrous! Let us go!" Starfire said clasping her hands together and jumping up and down in excitement.
"All right then! So does anyone wanna split up or are we all gonna go together?" Bumblebee asked with her usual leader like voice.
Jinx grabbed Raven's arm and yelled over her shoulder "See you guys later!"
"Well then I guess it's us three then! Let's go and find some killer dresses. I really do love it when Sparky drools and gives himself a shock, when I make the effort to dress up" Bumblebee said with a laugh.
The three girls headed into the first store and began looking around. They all tried on a number of dresses and finally Bumblebee found something she liked. It was a low cut golden silk dress that showed off her smooth, long legs and hugged her figure. It had a black sash that draped over one of the shoulders and tied around her waist with a small loop.
"Oh friend! You look glorious! You will be, as they say the ball of the bell!" Starfire gushed when she saw the dress Bumblebee had picked out.
"Yes it's gorgeous! Cyborg won't be able to take his eyes of you" Kole said with a giggle.
"Awww…shucks! That's sweet guys' thanks" Bumblebee said with a grin, as she paid for her dress. "Now what about you two? Haven't you both found anything yet?"
"I do not speak to any of these dresses" Starfire said with a sigh.
"She means that none of these dresses speak to her and same goes for me. I haven't really found anything I love yet" Kole explained.
"All right let's head over to the next store" Bumblebee said with a smile.
About 3 stores and a few hours later both Starfire and Kole managed to find beautiful gowns. Kole bought a sky blue one: It had small white crystals here and there and to one side it seemed as if there was crawling ivy with small flowers embroidered onto it.
"Jericho likes the outdoors" She explained, her cheeks turned a delicate pink.
"It's lovely Kole! You are gonna have him on his hand and knees before the night is up." Bumblebee said with a knowing smile and gave the girl a wink.
"Oh yes! It gives the feeling of the first day of spring and you are the fresh flower!" Starfire said with joy for Kole.
"Your dress is also gorgeous Star! As if you weren't the prettiest anyway, now you got the perfect dress too!" Kole said, giving her friend a small hug.
Starfire's dress was a full length gown: It was a beautiful shade of rose and made of chiffon, so when she walked it seemed as if a beautiful pink cloud flowed around her. The neck was heart-shaped and was lined with small silver stars; her waist had a matching silver sash and tied at the back with a beautiful bow, which had a star nestled in the middle.
Starfire giggled and then her stomach made a growling noise "Come friends! Raven and Jinx are surely waiting for us in the court of food and I am most hungry! I could eat an entire wobbleglark!"
Bumblebee and Kole wisely decided that neither of them wanted to know what a wobbleglark was so they just smiled and started making their way to the food court behind Star.
Meanwhile at the food court-
"What is taking them so long?" Jinx said with a growl. "I'm hungry!"
"You know how they love to shop" Raven replied in a deadpan voice.
"Ugh…okay so…how do you feel about my dress" Jinx asked nervously but pretended to examine her nails instead.
Raven raised an eyebrow at her friend's odd question, well odd for Jinx anyway but nevertheless said, mustering up a small smile. "It's nice Jinx, really…I think kidflash will really like it"
Jinx looked up at her with a small grateful smile and simply said "Thanks"
Jinx's dress really was very pretty. She had gone for a floor length dress, like Starfire: It was a black corset style from the top and the skirt flowed down in a hot pink wave. It had black sequins that formed the border and small pink jewels, the same color as the dress, making a beautiful neckline across her throat. She even managed to find a black choker that had the same pink jewels, only bigger, to serve as a necklace.
"Yours isn't bad either Rae" She said with a smile and then smirking added "You sure you didn't buy purple cause it's a certain someone's favorite color?"
Raven turned a deep red. Yes her dress was purple, the dark, nearly black kind. It went down past her knees but it didn't balloon out like a ball gown, rather it hung down and had a slight parting on one side. It was one shouldered and emeralds were sewn across its hem and neck alike. It was classically beautiful, without being flashy or showy and though she would never admit this too anyone, part of her decision to buy it WAS because she thought Beastboy might like it.
Thankfully she was saved from having to answer when the rest of the titan girls made their appearance and Jinx, forgetting about her, turned to them with a furious expression and shouted "You guys took nearly three and a half hours! Where were you?! Why I oughta-"
"Nice to see you fight with someone other than me Jinxy" A voice interrupted her and stopped her shouts right in their tracks.
Turning around all the girls saw that their respective dates had decided to make an appearance and were now making their way in their direction.
"Hey guys!" Beastboy said with a grin. "Nice to see you here..."
Raven raised a brow at that. They must have known which mall all the girls were going to but decided to stay quiet.
"What are you doing here sparky? You ain't gonna see the dress till the day of the ball and that's that" Bumblebee said with a grin when she saw Cyborg blush deep red as she caught him trying to look in her bag.
"We…uhhh…" Cyborg stammered.
"We came because birdboy here insisted that we all get a monkey suit" Kid flash said with an exasperated sigh.
"Oh what a glorious idea Robin! I am so pleased you are making the effort to impress!" Starfire said giving Robin a radiant smile and awarded him with a small hug.
Robin turned a deep red then coughed as Starfire let go "So everyone why don't we all grab some pizza before we go our separate ways?"
"That's a great idea!" Everyone yelled.
An hour later when everyone had their fair share of pizza the boys went in search for their formal wear while the girls went to shop for whatever else was on their list. Sometime later they all got back together and then one by one each couple left together.
It began when Robin asked Starfire if she wanted a ride back to the tower oh his R-cycle and with a small blush she accepted and made her way out of the mall with him.
The second couple to go their own way was Beastboy and Raven.
"So Rae…you wanna go watch a movie or something?" Beastboy had asked and Raven pulled her hood up to hide her blush.
"Sure why not?" she said in her best deadpan voice. So both of them left towards the cinema.
Cyborg and Bumblebee were in the middle of an eating contest: Loser had to clean out the mess the boys had made in the T-car, while on their way to the mall.
Flash had simply grabbed Jinx, bridal style and asked "Where to today milady?"
Jinx rolled her eyes but with a smirk replied "That place where we had chocolate croissants the other day"
He grinned and sped away, yelling "Paris it is then!"
Jericho looked at Kole and they both blushed. Then Jericho asked with a sign if she wanted to go out for a walk in the park with him. Kole nodded eagerly and, grabbing his hand unexpectedly, she raced towards the park with him trying to keep up.
Speedy laughed at his friends' love-like ways and grinned "Glad I'm not one of them"
A small voice delicately cleared their throat and he turned around, face to face with a young Vietnamese girl. Her long hair was cascading down her back and she wore an expression of slight amusement on her face as she pointed out "You were the one who took me to pet cats in the pet store on our last date"
He grinned at her and said "Come on, you know you loved it"
She gave him a grin in return and suddenly turned on her heel.
"Wait! Jade! Where are you going?" Speedy called after her.
"Try to keep up" She said turning around, and then as a crowd passed in front of her, she seemingly vanished.
Speedy cocked his head and laughed as he began his search "God I love that woman!"
