With a loud yawn and a rather impressive stretch Harry Potter reemerged into the realm of the living. Still feeling tired, Harry was in no hurry as he made his way down to the kitchen for a cup of coffee to make it through the last few hours of the day. Loud music reached his ears as he approached the living room, but it truly didn't register until the door opened and excitement was palpable in the air. Although Harry would soon join the festivities, he had to get some caffeine in his system. Making his way to the kitchen he realized that there was a higher power as there was already a pot on. Grabbing a mug and filling it with the bitter, but welcome nectar he turned to be faced with an arrow.

"Who are you? Why are you in here?" Speedy demanded.

Now when Harry was tired, many people avoided talking to him as his sarcastic and blunt comments had made some men cry. He was tired at the moment. "Beware me Robin Hood, for I have broken into Titan's tower to steal their coffee and then take over the world! Mwahahaha!"

"No one likes a smart ass, now again, who are you and why are you here?"

By now, the caffeine had started to work and both Robin and Raven had found their way into the kitchen. Signaling for the two to stay back and be quiet, the sadistic nature of Harry Potter made his way to the forefront. "You are very rude you know. Asking for my name without giving your own. Honestly the barbarity of the colonies of is astounding. No culture what so ever!"

Sputtering in indignation Speedy rebuked. "You don't know who I am? How in the world do you not know who I am?"

"I am a brit fine sir and I cannot amuse myself by memorizing every American out there. Now, if you were important I may have actually bothered to memorize your face."

"How do you not know who I am? I'm Speedy!"

"Are you really?" Getting a nod from Speedy and a visible relaxing of his shoulders in what Speedy must have thought of as a victory, Speedy smiled. Harry's next words crushed all hope, "You do drugs! And furthermore you introduce yourself to complete strangers with that." By now some more of the other Titans had found their way to the door and were trying their hardest not to laugh. Even Titans East was enjoying the show. "Well to each his own I guess. America has truly fallen if young man introduce themselves as Speedy. Wait, you don't do drugs!" Harry yelled surprising everybody and giving hope to Speedy once again. "Perhaps you should though. Viagra should help you with your problem, it's not very gentleman like to finish before the lady. And by the way good chap I am as straight as one of your arrows, I'm sorry for ruining your night's plans, but simply do not swing that way." The battle was lost as the rest of the Titans let out barks of laughter and Speedy sputtered uncontrollably.

Since the verbal barrage was over, Raven made her way across the room to Harry. "You know that wasn't fair Harry. It was a battle of wits and he woefully under armed." This brought forth a snort of amusement from Harry. She then placed a gentle hand on his shoulder bringing his attention fully back on her. "How are you feeling?"

"I'm still knackered, but after tonight's rest I'll be right as rain, so no worries. I assume this party is to celebrate our success?"

"Yeah, sorry we didn't wake you, but you were dead to the world and the rest were just in a festive mood."

"It's find Raven," Harry said taking her and in his and walking towards the rest of the group, who was trying and failing to eavesdrop. "This is more for you than me anyways. I was just the instrument that brought about the change. Now, care to introduce me to the rest of the group?"

"Sure, Titans East this is the magician Harry Potter. Harry this is Bumblebee, Mas and Menos, Aqualad, and of course you've already met Speedy."

"Indeed," Harry said, causing a few snickers here and there. "You really need to work on your people's skill.

"Me? You never once answered any of my questions! And I only asked you two!"

"And you had an arrow pointed at my face, so I say we are more than fair," Harry snarked back. This put Speedy on the receiving end of some very stern glares that promised a talk when the party was over. "Anyways, I hear that his is a party. Well come on then, I've got enough caffeine in my blood to make it a few hours, let's do this."

Party they did, for a few more hours anyways. Speedy eventually came out of his funk and admitted he had probably deserved the verbal smack down and it was a pretty good joke. No one cared to comment on the mutterings coming from Raven about sticking something pointy somewhere very painful, they just chalked it up to the fact that she could let her emotions show now. Speedy did make sure he had a clear line of sight of Raven for the rest of the night. Harry easily made friends with Titans East and spent most of the night talking to Aqualad about Atlantis and their brand of magic. Eventually, the party goers crashed, most landing in various positions on the couch and chairs. Harry and Raven's position made for a very interesting morning.

Raven awoke to a rather unusual warm feeling emanating from her pillow and a heavy weight on her hips preventing her from moving too much. It was a rather comforting and warm feeling that she was enveloped in, so it didn't alarm her. Gradually he eyes opened and slowly she took in her surroundings and noticed all the black signifying her room. Perhaps she could get some lighter curtains now, she mused, she still liked the dark, but it was finally time to let in a little light. She then became aware of her state of dress which was just an overly large shirt and a pair of panties which was the usual for her sleepwear. Satisfied, she laid her head back down and finally noticed the pillow. The well-defined solid pillow. The well-defined solid pillow that she couldn't help but to snuggle closer to.

Slowly she turned her head upwards and saw the face of the peaceful looking Harry Potter and her face softened dramatically. She didn't even mind that she was in bed with a male, because this male had saved her. Very rarely did Raven had girly moments, but right now she felt like a damsel in distress and he her knight in shining armor. Having been in firm control of her emotions all her life, Raven knew that she wasn't fully in love with him just yet, but the things he had done for her already, the connection they had in the book of souls, and the warm feeling he gave her right now were definitely moving her towards love. Just two days ago this would have scared her, now she was giddy with anticipation.

Moving her hand, she delicately trace Harry's jaw and stirred him from the realm of Morpheus. Blinking awake Raven saw a range of emotions pass through Harry's eyes, tracing a similar route that she had taken, but confusion took over him before it did for her as he wasn't in his guest room. Eventually Harry turned his gaze down to her and saw her smiling face and couldn't help but to return the smile. "Hey," He whispered softly, moving his hand to run his finger through her hair.

"Hey," She whispered right back.

"Well, since you're here, I guess we might as well talk."

"Yeah, I guess," Raven agreed and shifted herself up to be level with Harry with their foreheads practically touching.

"So I'm guessing since I was alive this morning we are moving in the right direction at least." With a nod Harry continued, "These past few days have been great and I like you a lot, so if you're willing I'd like to try dating a bit. This is my last year of Hogwarts, so I'll at least be able to see you more than a week at a time after June. But, here's the thing, there is no way I can move here. I have so much good I can do back in the U.K. now that leaving it would just go against what I stand for. So, do you still want to?"

"You know, I hear that London has some pretty great medical schools. The Titans are expanding in what seems to be everyday with new young heroes popping up everywhere. Although I love my team like my family, the superhero business was just a way to do as much good as fast as possible to make up the hell I would unleash on the world. Now that there is no chance of that from me, I'd like to get out of the public eye and save lives my own way. And if I were to stop a random mugger or two, then yeah who's to blame me? I think this can work."

"If you're sure, I'd love it. Plus, you don't have to worry about those fees, because the Potter family is extremely wealthy and with my investment strategies with the Goblins, my personal vault is nothing to laugh at and continues to grow each day."

"But I couldn't…"

"Of course you can, we're practically bonded anyways. So what do you say to a date tonight? I am going to have to go back to England soon. My pseudo uncles are covering for me now, but I will be missed at the ball if I don't hurry back."

"Well a date sounds lovely," Raven said and then reached to put a small peck on Harry's lips. "So what do I have to wear to this ball?"

"Wait what?"

"What do I have to wear to this ball? I'm assuming the dresses aren't like modern ones with slits for the legs and low backs, so what am I looking at here?"

"Honestly, you can wear any longer dress you feel like. My friend Fleur never follows the dress code and laughs at those who do. Are you sure you want to come?"

"Yes Harry, I want to come. We'll be seeing a lot of each other from now, so I may as well join you now. Plus I can keep all the other girls wanting the Potter name away so you can stick with just your friends."

"Thank you!" Harry said and leaned down to emphasize his thanks. After they broke their kiss, "Come on let's get up, we'll go out at seven tonight."

The day was spent mainly on the island relaxing on the beach or playing games on the giant television. At five Raven begged off anymore activities to get ready for her date which gained squeals of approval from the other two girls and all three disappeared into Raven's room to gossip. Speedy gave Harry a congratulatory pat on the back and it seemed that Cyborg really wanted to say something. It was hard to give the big brother speech when the guy you were aiming for saved his honorary little sister from being sacrificed as a portal to a world ending monster. Instead Cyborg tried to convey a message with his eyes and got a solemn nod from Harry as a result.

Harry and Rachel, as she was tonight, ended up in a high end Greek restaurant and talked the night away flirting. After a walk through in the park they ended up in the same bed again. Raven wasn't one to complain especially if Harry was without a shirt tonight. She didn't have it in her to complain as he pulled her close and held her tight as they drifted off. Harry wasn't one to complain either as tonight's shirt was just a bit smaller than last night. Nope, they were perfectly content for the night.


A/N: Well here's the next chapter and as you can see I decided that Harry will have a decent relationship with his uncles. I just really can't see those two never being involved in the sons of their closest friends' lives. I think I'm spoiling everybody by updating everyday, eventually it will move to every 3-4 days. Next time Harry arrives back in England.

Until next time, PEACE!
