Ah, yes. The 3rd chapter has arrived. You are all probably very happy, am I not right? Of course I'm right. I bet you all are screaming with excitement as you are reading this, knowing you will find out soon what is to happen. Well, I should just stop typing her and let you read the story. And since I'm so awesome, I will. So enjoy!
Oh, yeah. Man, I hate this disclaimer! If I've said it once, I've said it a thousand times! I DO NOT OWN THE TITANS OR ANYTHING THAT AFFILIATES WITH THEM!!! There, how do you like me now?
Chapter 3: Movie Madness and Funny Feelings
There was an uncomfortable silence as Robin and Raven walked down the halls of Titans Tower. Raven just couldn't stop thinking about Robin. It was like it was 'The Robin Show' that played in her mind twenty-four / seven. She couldn't make it stop and it was really getting on her nerves.
Robin on the other hand, was thinking of Raven. She was just so…wow. He didn't know how to explain it. He didn't think that he could possibly like Raven…right? He didn't know what it was, but he was just too afraid to talk to her when they were alone. He used to have been able too, but now, everything felt different when he was around her. Like the Boy Wonder who wasn't afraid of anything and protected the city for a living was gone and was replaced by Richard Grayson, the average teenage boy. But like Raven? Impossible…right? She was just a friend. A really good friend. But, wasn't there a saying that two birds of a feather flock together? Uh! His head hurt badly.
He breathed in deeply when they finally made it to the doors of the Main Room.
When Robin and Raven got down there and opened the doors to the room, it was filled with pandemonium.
Beast Boy and Cyborg were arguing about snacks and food to eat for the movie. Beast Boy had on long pajama pants and a t-shirt that were both green with yellow bananas on them. Cyborg had on long blue pajama pants and a long sleeved blue pajama shirt that button up and that had stripes going down vertically. They were running around the Main Room and kitchen, throwing food at each other. Food of all kinds was everywhere and neither of the boys were letting up. They were yelling things at one another and sticking out their tongues, being really immature.
Starfire had on pink and orange pajamas. It was a pink nightgown that went down to her knees and had orange polka spots on it. It was a tank top sleeved kind. She was trying to help and was attempting to put the D.V.D in the player, but she had no idea how to work the controller. There were too many buttons. She dropped it on the ground in frustration and said some things very loud and very fast in Tamaranian. She then turned around to face the sofa and screeched, seeing her beloved pet Silky had started chewing on the edge of the U-shaped sofa.
Starfire pulled her pet away and started scolding him, when she suddenly got hit in the head with some slimy white tofu. She turned to see Beast Boy and Cyborg who had stopped their feud for a moment. She spotted a handful of tofu in the green boys hand and her eyes narrowed to a considerably small size. She set her pet down on the floor gently and looked back at the two boys. They could have sworn they could see heat radiating off of her and screamed when they started being chased by the infuriated alien princess.
Both Raven and Robin sighed and sweat dropped. Leave these three alone for only a couple minutes would equal disaster. Big mistake.
"Enough you guys. ENOUGH!!!" Robin yelled. Yet the trio refused to stop and ignored their leader. Raven smiled, knowing Robin's usual 'tough leader' charade wasn't working, and she stepped in.
"Azarath Metrion Zinthous!" she shouted as black aura surrounded her hands. Suddenly it was around the three and they were pulled apart. She then made three bubbles and each of them got trapped in one, unable to get out. Raven breathed in deeply, happy the noise had ceased. She rubbed her temples before summoning the bubbles containing her friends in front of Robin and herself.
"Stop you useless bickering and clean this place up. You don't, and I'm officially canceling this movie night." Raven told them firmly, threatening the team of a funless night.
All of them fell silent in their little black bubbles and then mumbled their apologizes to the Goth. Then they promised her that they'd clean up. She smiled and the black bubbles holding the three disappeared, making them all fall to the floor. Robin was impressed. Raven had such authority.
'And an awesome body and beautiful big eyes…wait. Did I…I really did just think that didn't I? Who am I kidding? Why do I keep pretending? I can't lie to myself. I think…I think that I love Raven.' He told himself as he watched the Empath float to the sofa. She levitated some tofu and candy into the trash as she made her way. She casually went over the top of the sofa and sat down, waiting for the others to finish cleaning.
When the rooms that had been torn though were restored, everyone sat on the sofa. (It went from one end: Cyborg, Beast Boy, Raven, Robin, and then Starfire.) Cyborg popped the disk in and pushed the play button before returning to his spot on the sofa. Within seconds, Raven could hear the familiar menacing music and the title appeared on the screen in what seemed like blood. Raven could already feel chills coming on.
Wicked Scary.
The movie started in the same way. There was the innocent family that was uncertain of their doom. The menacing monster and other gory stuff. Raven was prepared for all of this, but then gave out a little shriek when a close up of the green monster with mouths all over its body and octopus tentacles came. Everyone actually did.
Finally, after the movie ended, everyone exhaled. Raven hadn't blown anything up and everything had gone fine.
"Was that movie not awesome the second time around?!?" Beast Boy asked everyone, jumping up fro emphasis and cackling evilly.
"Sure, can we just get on to the sequel and get this over with?" Raven said, eyeing the television wearily.
"Why Rae? You do remember that we're here to protect you…" Robin told her as he bravely ran his exposed fingers up and down her arm. Even though it was covered with her white silk robe, Raven could still feel his touch. Raven shut her eyes and bit her bottom lip. She could feel Love wanting out so she could tell Robin how much she like him touching her. She repeated her mantra in her head.
'I don't like him touching me…I don't like him touching me…I don't like him touching me…' she coached herself.
'Oh yes you do…' came Love's voice in her head. She inwardly growled at her and stood up.
"I'm putting 'Wicked Scary II' in. I don't care if you're not in here, I'm getting this over with so I can go and read in my room alone." Raven told everyone as she popped in the movie disk. She grabbed the remote hastily and stormed over to the sofa. She sat down with a huff next to Robin once again and hit the play button before putting the remote on the table in front of the sofa. Beast Boy and Cyborg rushed to their spots as well with all the snacks that they could find in the Tower and the movie finally began.
Everyone was fine with the beginning, because nothing much happened. The family was still all there and it was pretty good in the beginning. But then they killed off the dad in such an ugly manner that everyone screamed. Raven grabbed the arm closest to hers and wrapped hers around it, clinging for dear life, totally terrified of everything happening on the television screen. She was fine with every other horror film and scary movie out there, but this one managed to scare the crap out of her. There were monsters and murderers from other horror movies out there, and that only made Raven scared of them now.
The movie finally ended about two hours later at 9:05 p.m. and everyone exhaled. That had been pretty wrong.
Raven finally turned to see that the arm she had been holding onto for the entire movie had been Robin's. Raven sweat dropped and she blushed before pulling away and standing up. She then went to the kitchen to look for something to do, other then thinking of the Boy Wonder.
Robin still sat there, a small smile appearing on his face. He'd have to remember to watch more scary movies with the team that had just come out to see if they would scare Raven. Then maybe he'd have her in his lap. He started to think more but that was cut short when Beast Boy started shouting.
"Okay, I'm going to get the third movie and more snacks, 'cause Cyborg and I kind of ate all of the snacks that we had in this Tower. Try not to miss me." he said, winking as he started for the door.
"Oh no man! I don't' trust you with snacks! You'll probably get soy cubes and tofu crap! And I'm not eating that stuff you call food, 'cause it isn't food! I don't even trust you to even finding the movie let alone the video store!" Cyborg told his short companion. "I'm coming with."
"I do not trust either of you! So may I go as well? Because I wish to get large amounts of the candy and corn of popping! I would like to experiment with my book for cooks some more and would be delighted to purchase ingredients for some more recipes as well." Starfire asked sweetly as she flew up to the two bickering boys, stopping their conversation.
Robin was trying to block them out, but found it very difficult. But he finally caught on that if those three were gone, then only two of the Titans would be in Titans Tower. Raven and himself. Robin jumped at his opportunity.
"Yes! I mean - that's a great idea guys. Someone has to watch you two to make sure that you don't start fighting in public and Star is a perfect peacemaker. You three go. I can man down the fort alone with Raven." Robin told them, urging them to go.
Raven's ears picked up the last part. Beast Boy, Cyborg and Starfire were going to leave, meaning Robin and her would be alone. In the Tower. With no one else to distract her. And Love was on the verge of giving her away. She had to do something. This wasn't going to be good if they left.
"Wait, how about Starfire stays with you and I go? You how those three end up arguing and-" she started to say, but a certain masked boy interrupted her.
"No, Starfire can handle those two. And she wants to go and shop maybe to get some ingredients. We can't pass up on her making something actually edible. Those three can go and that's an order. Bye!" He told the three as he pushed them to the door. They finally made it to the door.
"Uh, Rob. I kind of need the car ke-"
"Here are the car keys Cyborg. Here you go! Have fun. Take as much time as you need and bring back A LOT of snacks. See you in a bit. BYE!" Robin shouted one last time before shutting the door in the three other Titan's faces. He exhaled and stood in front of the door for a while.
Raven sighed and sat down once again on the sofa and stuck out her bottom lip in a pout. She had a feeling something was going to happen. And it wasn't a good thing.
End Chapter
I liked how I ended that. Robin was in such a rush! So know you know what he is thinking. And what Raven is still thinking. And that Robin has issues and talks fast when he is nervous.
Anyway…in the next chapter…you will see a lot of stuff happen. It will be the longest chapter by far so far. Raven is going to talk to her emotion that is bugging her most and things are going to start to happen between the birds in the Tower. What will this lead to? A whole lot of trouble! Hope that you liked it, and please review!
