UPDATED A BIG THANKS TO NTMNKY.I forgot to space this out.

Chapter 3

It was another quiet morning at the Titans tower. In the dark room of Raven, her clock showed that it was just past 5:30. None of this mattered to her as she slept deeply. That is, until there a was knock on her door followed by the quiet voice of Starfire.

"Friend Raven?"

It was silent for a moment before she heard the reply. "Huh?"

"You said that today we could go to the mall in Gotham to look for dresses, may we leave now?"

"Ugh, give me five more minuets." there was a sound of sheets as she rolled over.

"Alright."

Five minuets later.

"Friend Raven, it has been five minuets, may we leave now?" When she heard no reply, Starfire sighed and turned to leave, only to bump into Beast boy.

"Oh, good morning Beast boy. I was trying to wake Raven but it seems that she is still asleep."

He grinned. "I'll get her up for you. It'll only take a minuet." he transformed into a fly and squeezed through the space under her door. Transforming back, he walked forward silently and smiled. Raven looked so peaceful when she slept but he knew it wasn't going to last that long.

He leaned over and placed a small kiss in her cheek. She moaned and turned over onto her side, facing away from him. Grinning, he got ready to run.
Cupping his hands over his mouth, he took a deep breath. "RAE! TIME TO GET UP!"

Raven shot up, her head hit his and he fell forwards. She jumped slightly as he fell on her, laughing and rubbing his head.

"GARFIELD!" she screamed, pushing him off.

He fell back onto his butt and she glared at him. "Why did you do that!" She asked angrily.

He grinned and rubbed the back of his head. "Well, Star was trying to wake you up but you wouldn't, so I helped her."

She glared at him before climbing out of bed. It took her a moment of him staring at her before realizing that she was wearing her pajamas. Her face lit up in a crimson blush.

"Nice outfit Rae." he said, grinning more than ever. "I like the necklace too. Is it new?"

Raven used her powers and tossed him out of her room. "I'll be out in a minuet." She grumbled to Starfire.

The door slammed closed and Beast boy slowly got up, fearing that it wouldn't be the end of his punishment. He headed for the kitchen, hoping that making her some of her tea would calm her down a bit.

Raven grumbled as she changed into a pair of jeans and a black, long sleeve shirt that she had gotten on her last mall excursion with Starfire. She had forgotten that she promised the young girl that they could travel to Gotham since they hadn't found any dresses that they liked.

Sighing, she walked out and into the kitchen where a cup of steaming herbal tea sat at the table next to Beast boy. He smiled and pat the chair next to him.

Glaring at him, she took a seat and took a sip of the herbal tea while Starfire ate her cereal across from her.

"So where you going?" beast boy asked.

"Gotham!" Starfire replied eagerly. "Were going to look for dresses, do you wish to join us?"

Beast boy shook his head. "Sorry, I have some things to do today."

"You always have something to do." Raven said, "what is it that you do all the time?"

He smiled. "It's a secret." he leaned over and said quietly. "Though if you really wanna know..." he paused. "Your going to have to wait."

She glared at him. "Whatever. You ready Star? It take a couple of hours to get to Gotham."

"How are you getting there?" Beast boy asked curiously.

"I convinced Cy to make me a vehicle similar to Robins. With my help, we got it done last week but I haven't driven it far." Raven replied.

"Dude, you have your licence?" he asked.

"I've had it since last year. Come on Star, we better get going." They both got up and headed for the elevator while grabbing their coats.

"Good bye Beast boy!" Starfire said, waving to him and the doors closed and they headed for the garage.

When they arrived, Raven unveiled her vehicle. Mostly black but with dark purple flames that trailed down the side of it.

"But where are we to put the items we buy?" Starfire asked.

Raven pulled up at the back seat and revealed a rather large storage compartment. "Are you ready?" Starfire nodded and hopped onto the back of the bike after Raven had climbed on and held it steady with her feet. She handed Starfire a helmet and put one on herself.

"Lets go!" They sped down the cave that went through the water and came out the other side of it. Raven could hear Starfire cheering behind her as they burst into the cool air of the morning and traveled down the highway that would take them to Gotham.

"Kory, have you picked one out yet?" Raven asked. They had been in the mall for three hours looking for the 'perfect dress.' So far, Raven had gotten new black jeans, which she was quickly becoming fond of, and a dark purple, low neck shirt. She still had yet to find a dress she actually liked. Starfire examined two dresses that she liked and finally decided on one.

She held it up for Raven to examine. "Do you like it?" Raven looked it over. The was a simple, light pink and red dress that fanned out slightly. Perfect for valentines day and Raven told her so. Her face light up and went off to purchase it.

Raven sighed. She couldn't find one that suited her tastes. Once Starfire was ready, the continued on down the large mall. "Shall we go in there?" Starfire asked, pointing to a rather dark looking store called Hot topic.

Raven nodded and dragged Star into the store in a hurry. They walked around it slowly, examining the many items they had to offer. Though there wasn't a dress she really liked, Raven found some boots with a low heel and black and purple ribbons that laced up the leg. Grabbing a pair that would fit, she paid for them a left with Starfire at her heels.

"We must now find a dress suitable for you." Starfire said.

Raven nodded and was dragged into many more stores before she found one that she actually liked. It was a simple black dress with a low neck and dark purple stripe that ran along the bottom, neck line and ends of the sleeves. There was also slits that ran up both sides that would reveal her legs.

"Wow, that is most beautiful." Starfire said, looking over her friend's choice as she bought it.

"Yeah, I like it." she responded. After paying for it, they started heading for home.

The girls rode back into Jump City and decided to get some ice cream before their return to the tower. They sat inside the café and talked for a while.

"I like your necklace." Starfire commented.

Raven blushed slightly and her black powers consumed a napkin holder. She managed to push her embarrassment down and give Star a small smile. "Thanks, so do I." "Where did you get it from?" she asked.

"From a secret admirer." Raven said truthfully.

"A secret admirer?" Starfire echoed, confusedly.

Raven sighed. It was one of those things that she never told Star about. "A secret admirer is just that. A person who, leaves you notes, gifts, other things without you knowing. Usually, they tell you who they are when there ready or something like that. I've never had one before now."

"Oh, I see." Starfire sat thoughtfully for a moment. "I believe I have had a 'secret admirer' before. Robin gave me things without me knowing who did so."

Raven allowed a bigger smile to cross her features. "I forgot about that. He actually asked me to help him a few times."

Starfire smiled. "Shall we return now?" Raven nodded and paid for the desserts before they headed back to the tower.

Robin sat, slumped on the couch. Starfire had been gone for seven hours and he was bored out of his mind. Beast boy had disappeared again and Cyborg was off with Jinx. He had been flipping through the channels looking for something to watch but nothing was on. He was just about to start working out when Beast boy walked back in carrying a box.

"Hey, what you got there?" Robin asked.

"Nothing of importance. If you want to get the game booted up, I'll play ya." he replied, heading for the hallways that led to their sleeping quarters.

"Alright!" Robin said, rushing to turn on the game out. He was that desperate for something to do.

Beast boy appeared a few minuets later and hopped over the back of the couch into his seat and grabbed the controller.

A few hours later the girls walked in talking and carrying a few bags.

"Hey, there back." Beast boy said as Robin quickly put down the controller and rushed over to Starfire. He enveloped her in a big hug and kissed her cheek.

"I'm glad your back!"

"Glad would be the understatement of the year" Raven muttered. She gave a small smile to Beast boy before heading for her room.

"Wait, aren't you going to show us your dress?" Beast boy asked.

"Nope, your going to have to wait till the party. Right Star?" Raven asked, looking at Starfire who nodded.

"That is right Raven." She picked up her bags and followed Raven through the doors that shut behind them.

Robin pouted. He wanted to see starfire in her new dress but guessed he could wait a few days until the party.

Raven smiled and told Starfire that she would be out in the lounge in a minuet. After walking into her room, she hung her dress up in her closet and put the boots underneath them before putting her jeans and shirt in her dresser. It took her a moment to realize something new added to her dresser. A black vase now replaced the smaller one that had once held the roses. It seemed to be hand crafted and the picture painted on it was similar to the one Malchior had in his book. However, this one was altered slightly. Her eyes were open and a genuine smile was on her face. Also, a shadow raven flew behind her in never ending flight.

She gaped at the beautiful craftsmanship to it. It wasn't until she adverted her gaze did she see the note card propped up in front of it. The familiar calligraphy shone against the white paper.

I hope you do not mind the picture It grasps your beauty as well as your soul.
I hope that one day, I may see the same smile from your alluring lips.
Your Secrete Admirer

Raven smiled slightly. 'Maybe if I knew who you were...' she stopped thinking about it. She didn't dare to begin to think of this person as someone other than a friend. Besides, even though she hated admitting it, she was starting to develop feelings for beast boy. She hated when he wasn't around and he had actually matured into a fine young man. He had said before, in a card he had given her for her birthday, that all he wanted to do was make her happy. Something about him drew her attention and she didn't know why but she wanted his in return.

A knock came at the door and she shook her head before opening it. Starfire stood in the doorway with a large smile on her face.

"Do you wish to watch a movie with Robin and I?" She asked.

"Is BB watching it with you?" Raven asked casually.

"No, he said that he did not like the kind of movie we are watching and retreated to his room."

If beast boy didn't like it, she was sure she wouldn't. "No thanks Star. I'm going to read for a while."

"Alright then, enjoy reading." Starfire headed for the common room and out of sight.

Raven shut the door with a small smile. She knew, like the others, to stay clear of Robin and Starfire when they were watching movies. She turned and got comfortable on her bed and reached over the side for her laptop that she had been given by the team after a certain green elf found her journal of poems and shared her writing ability with the others. They had given her a laptop to keep Beast boy's prying eyes away from them though she doubted that if he really wanted to, he could get into it.

'That's if he dared to come in here.' she thought, before remembering that he had that morning to wake her.

'That's right! I still have a bone to pick with him!' she though, closing her laptop and walking briskly to his room with it under her arm.
She knocked on his door which music was coming from. She heard it turn off before the door opened.

"Yeah?" he asked.

"You never told me how you got in my room this morning or even why you even dared to step foot in it." She glared at him.

He laughed. "I thought that you would be coming around. Come on in."

Hesitantly, she stepped into his room and the door closed behind her. It was actually cleaned compared to all the other times she had been in her room. "You can actually see the floor!" she said sarcastically.

"I know." he said, grinning at her. He flopped onto his king sized bed that he had traded in after realizing that he was too tall for his bunk bed.

She sat down on the edge of his bed. "Why, or better yet, how did you get into my room this morning?"

He grinned. "Well, I transformed into a fly like so many times before and slipped under your door. I did it because Starfire was banging rather loudly on your door and I wanted to help her out."

Raven glared at him. "You have no permission to enter my room, ever."

He smiled. "I'll try and remember that." he picked up his remote to his stereo and turned his music back on though not as loud as before. A quiet instrumental came on that seemed totally off from what Raven thought he would listen to.

"What is this?" She asked.

"Just some pieces I put together." he said, pointing to a keyboard in the corner of his room.

"You did this?" she asked, surprised.

He nodded, his fingers playing along with the cd to an invisible keyboard in front of him.
"Wow, your good." she muttered.

"Thanks. Hey, why don't you just chill in here a while? I promise I wont look at your writing." He said with a small smile gracing his lips.

"Why not." Raven said, laying down with her lap top in front of her while Beast boy continued to play his 'air' keyboard. After a while, he shut off his stereo and started to play with the real one. Raven smiled though kept it hidden from his view.

For a few hours, they stayed like that.Raven giving him compliments and pointers whenever she felt the need to while he helped her with her writing, if she let him see it, when she was stuck.

Robin sat with his arms wrapped around Starfire. He wasn't really watching the movie; he was more interested in the girl beside him. "Where do you want to go for Valentines Day Star?" Robin asked quietly.

"May we go to a romantic restaurant or the movies maybe?" She replied, taking her eyes off from the movie that she had seen a million times before.

"We could do both if you wanted." He said, smiling when her eyes lit up with happiness.

"Glorious! I have been meaning to ask you, did you write up the guest list yet? Raven wanted to make sure you had everyone on it."

"It's almost done. I'm going to give it to Cy and see if he wants to add anyone to it. That is, if he gets back from his excursion with Jinx." Robin added with a smirk.

"Alright." Starfire turned back to the movie and Robin settled back into watching Starfire watch the movie. Once in a while, he would lean over and kiss her neck and she would giggle, letting herself get distracted.

An hour later, after Robin and Starfire had gone to bed, Cyborg and Jinx walked back in hand in hand and proceeded to their rooms.

Beast Boy finally stopped playing when his eyes started to close on him. He turned off his keyboard and stretched before turning around to find that Raven had fallen asleep at her computer. Smiling slightly, he closed the lap top cover and set it on his desk before pulling the covers up around her shoulders. He gave her a small kiss on the cheek before turning and grabbing a sleeping bag out of his closet. He laid it out beside the bed and grabbed an extra pillow before getting comfortable.

"Night Rae." He said quietly before drifting off into a deep sleep.

AN: Another chapter written (8 pgs long weee!) Thank you to all that have reviewed, I am eternally gratefull for your feed back. In short, you guys rock!

However, on a different note I'm kinda sad that I have to say this. I've seenother writers with this problem and I was so happy that I didn't have a problem with it untill now.
I'm not pleased with getting reviews telling me to hurry up. Little encouragements such as "update soon"(or even "I'll wait ne day till u update" XPThanks Special!) is perfectly acceptable.
However, to"Please hurry up and finish the next chapter already" and "please write another chapter for gawd's sake!" (from the same person, in a row) I have one thing to say
I have a life outside of writing. It's called school and friends and just plain relaxing.I will get the next chapter up as soon as I can. I think 8 well writtenpages is better than 2 crappy chapters. It would be fine if it hadn't been the same person and if it was worded differently. I do not mean to zone in on this one personand seem like I am a real meany but it bugged me a bit.

Alright, now that that's over:
I know I said I wasn't going to update RH but I did anyways and I liked (kinda) how it came out.
I think that's it for now.

Untill next time...
Hoshi
