Pairing: Major Beastboy/Terra, and maybe more as the story continues.

Disclaimer: I do not own the Teen Titans. Really wish I did, though. If I did, it would've been more awesome.

Author's Notes: Hello all of my loyal readers. It's Mr. Alaska again, with another update to everyone's favorite Teen Titans fan fiction. Sorry that it has taken so long for me to update this story. Since I have so many unfinished stories out already, I have been stretched. Also, I'm back in school, learning how to drive, thinking about getting a job, etc. I hope you all understand. Anyways, I'm back. We left off with Tara (Terra) admitting she remembers Beastboy and the Titans. And since I have been getting messages saying she admitted so sudden, I decided to clear that up right now. Terra, after seeing what distances Beastboy would go to see her, knew she wouldn't be able to keep up the act. And just so you all know, the actual romance won't happen right away. So sit back, relax, and enjoy the chapter. Please leave plenty of reviews. PEACE!

Chapter 4: Its All Worth It

"WOO HOO! Catch me if you can, Titans!" shouted the mad motorcyclist, Johnny Rancid, as he tore down the streets of Jump, with the Titans right behind him. Apparently, Johnny had decided that afternoon to cause a little damage to a couple of motorcycle shops, and steal a few things. He was swinging his metal chain around in the air wildly and shouted like a madman. "HAHAHAHAHAHA! Come on, Titans!" he cried, seeing as the Titans, including Robin, who was on his own motorcycle, were having trouble keeping up with him. "You will have to do a lot better if you want to even attempt to ride with Johnny Rancid, the world's most hardcore biker! HAHAHAHA!"

The chase continued on, while Johnny swerved to dodge star bolts, laser canon blasts, and dark energy. "HA! You guys can't even aim right!" Johnny laughed, picking up speed. But when he was about to continue, he squinted his eyes, and saw Beastboy, standing in the middle of the road. The biker raised his eyes in confusion. "Green Boy? Is that you?" As he neared, he indeed discovered that it was the green changeling of the Titans, wearing a school uniform. When he saw it was Beastboy, he laughed wildly.

"HAHAHAHAHAHA! You better get out of the way, idiot!" he shouted, as he went full throttle at the Titan. "Because if you don't wise up, you will become the world's ugliest pizza!" But, as Johnny Rancid came within 20 feet of the Titan, Beastboy transformed into a giant green rhino. "OH FUCK!" Before Johnny could turn, his motorcycle slammed against the side of the green rhino. Johnny was sent soaring through the air, and slammed into a nearby building with devastating force. He struck into the brick building with such force, he was embedded deep in the brick that formed it.

As the Titans rode up to the green rhino, it transformed back into Beastboy. Robin was about to say something to him, when Garfield looked at his wristwatch. When he saw what time it was, he panicked. "Aw crap! Lunch period is almost over!" he yelped, as he turned into a green cheetah and sped off in the other direction.

Standing there, completely shocked at how fast he had handled Johnny Rancid, the Titans looked at one another. Cyborg, scratching the back of his neck, looked at the unconscious Johnny, who had peeled off the side of the building. "Wow… Maybe we should have enrolled Beastboy into school sooner?" he mumbled, as the police rode in to arrest Johnny.

Back at School

The bell had rung, signaling the end of lunch. Students were flooding the halls, rushing to their next period class. Beastboy burst in two minutes after that bell, breathing heavily. He reached into his pocket and pulled out his schedule, and looked at it. He had Mr. Murphy for World History, room 310.

'OH CRAP,' he screamed in his head, as he ran down the now empty halls. He had less than one minute to make it to room 310, before he was considered late. Unfortunately, he was in the low 100 range. He dashed down the halls, hoping that no teacher would stop him for running in the halls. Hall after hall, he ran, hoping to find the room he was looking for.

Finally, he came across room 310. "Yes," he nearly shouted, as he walked in, just as the second bell went off. All of the other students were already there, obviously. They all looked at him, which caused Beastboy to chuckle and scratched the back of his neck, embarrassed. "Hehee…. Saved by the bell, huh?" Some of the students chuckled, and looked back down at their history books. Then, he looked to the front of the classroom and saw Mr. Murphy.

Sean Murphy was a middle aged man, who was bald on top, but had light brown hair on the sides. He had a thick goatee. He wore formal clothes, much like the other teachers. He wore a light blue dress shirt, black dress pants, and black dress shoes. He looked at Beastboy, and smirked.

"Ah…. Mr. Logan," he chuckled, closing his history book. "It is nice to see you eager to learn, just like the rest of my students." The other students rolled their eyes and chuckled. "Nice to see one of Jump's Titans as one of my students. Please, grab a history book and take a seat anywhere you'd like."

'I am going to like this guy,' Beastboy thought, as he grabbed a book. He looked around the class, looking for a open seat. And as if God himself was looking down upon him, he saw one… where he saw Tara Markov, looking at him. He smiled. 'Sweet.' But when he walked up, he looked past Tara, and saw her two friends, Tiffany and Sarah. They glared at him. 'Not sweet.'

But when Garfield was about to look for another seat, he saw Tara whisper something to them. When she was finished, Tiffany and Sarah looked at each other in confusion. Tara looked back and waved at him with a tired smile. "Come on, Garfield," she whispered, using his real name and pulling out the chair beside her. "You can sit here."

Smiling happily, Beastboy took the seat right next to the blond girl. While the two girls next to Terra were still giving him stern looks, he smiled and opened his thick history book. "Where are we?" he whispered.

"Page 211. We are studying ancient Chinese history," she whispered back. He opened up to page 211, and read along.

World History was very fun with Mr. Murphy. When he was reading from his teacher's edition, he took on an ancient Chinese accent, since that was what they were studying. He would pace back and forth in front of his students, reading and making sure they were doing what they were supposed to be doing.

"This Mr. Murphy guy is hilarious," Garfield snickered, as he flipped to the next page. "Maybe I should ask him where he learned to be so funny."

Terra rolled her eyes and quietly giggled. "You are funny, Garfield," she assured, trying to pay attention to what Mr. Murphy was saying. Tiffany and Sarah, who were listening to this, exchanged confused looks. what is she talking about? "In a "Starved for attention" kind of way."

Beastboy raised a eyebrow. "Oh really," he asked. "Well, maybe I sh…"

"Mr. Logan. Ms. Markov," Beastboy's and Terra's eyes snapped open when they heard Mr. Murphy's voice. They turned around and say their teacher, standing behind them, with one hand on his hip and the other holding his book. He looked down with a raised eyebrow. "Please, if you two are going to flirt, please save it for after class." All of the girls in the class giggled, while the guys gave Beastboy thumbs up. Terra blushed and buried her face in her book. Beastboy, on the other hand, blushed and chuckled.

"Umm… Sure. Sure thing, Mr. Murphy… Sorry," he chuckled, as he rubbed the back of his neck. Satisfied, Mr. Murphy opened back up his book and continued on from where he was. The Titan looked back over to his former teammate, who wasn't looking at him. She was embarrassed.

'Great,' Garfield thought, as he picked up on where Mr. Murphy was. 'I was actually enjoying this class… Now she won't talk to me.'

They continued to read along, when the bell rang. It was time for the last period of the day. Beastboy smiled as everyone stood up to leave. "Where is you last period class, Terr… Tara?" he asked, correcting himself.

She sighed, as she pushing in her chair. "Earth Science, with Mr. Lundt." Beastboy's ears tilted down when he heard her voice.

"Umm…. Is something wrong?" he asked, walking out into the halls. "I would've thought you would love Earth Science."

Terra nodded her head, but kept her displeased demeanor. "Yeah… But it's the teacher I don't like," she explained. "You'll see when you meet him."

Too lazy to look at his schedule again, Beastboy decided to follow Terra. Fortunately, Tiffany and Sarah weren't following them, telling him that they didn't have that class. Which made him happy. He could enjoy being around Terra without two angry shadows hovering over him… but was she enjoying being around him? He couldn't tell. She was acting very distant, for some reason.

But, he decided to save all of his questions for after school.

Then, the two finally arrived at Mr. Lundt's classroom. They walked in, where Beastboy took a deep gulp. There were skeletons of many different animals scattered all around the room, along with a few animal pelts. Other than that, it was a regular classroom. 'Okay, this is weird,' Beastboy thought.

As he took a seat next to Terra, in walked Mr. Lundt. He was a man, around his early 40s and wearing glasses. He had short brown hair, which matched his matching beard/goatee combo. He had on dress clothes, like all of the other teachers. He saw Beastboy, and raised a eyebrow.

"Hmm…. You must be," he asked, going through his roster. Feeling uneasy, Beastboy finished for him.

"Umm… I'm Garfield," he began, receiving a strange look from Mr. Lundt. "Garfield Logan…. I should be on you roster…" After taking a second look through his roster, Mr. Lundt took a deep sigh.

"Take a seat." Beastboy shivered at the man's gloomy demeanor. Mr. Lundt acted like him being there was somewhat of a burden on him. So, not wanting to make enemies with him right off the bat, Garfield took a seat next to Terra.

"You see what I'm talking about," Terra sighed, as she opened up her Geology book. "The guy acts like we were the worst thing to happen to him… So don't step out of line."

And as Beastboy feared, Terra's least favorite teacher showed him what Terra was talking about. He was somewhat nice to half of the students in the classroom, while he was snippy and mean to the ones he didn't like… which, oddly, included Terra herself. He almost stood up from his chair and snapped at him when he laughed at a question she asked him. And while he didn't actually do it (courtesy of Terra stopping him) he kept on sending him glares whenever he got the chance. And throughout the class period, this continued. And unfortunately, Mr. Lundt caught a few of Garfield's glares. So, now Beastboy was in the same boat as Terra and half the class.

Before the bell rang, Mr. Lundt cleared his throat. "Don't forget," he began, "you all have to get into groups of two and write a paper about this semester's subject. Volcanic rock. You all need to tell me how it came to be, what it consists of, describe to me the texture of it, and so on. It is due in a month, so don't waste any time… You listening, Ms. Markov?"

Terra looked to the ground when he pointed her out, yet again. "Some of you need the points. With the third quarter ending in a little more than two months, you can't afford to slack off. So go home, look up the stuff, and bring it back anytime before the end of this semester." Then, the bell rang. All of the students let out a sigh of relief as the exited.

When Terra walked out without saying anything to Beastboy, he gave one last glare at Mr. Lundt as he left. 'You are going down, old man,' he thought, before walking into the halls. He stopped and looked around, looking for Terra. But she was nowhere to be found.

"Hey dude!" Beastboy turned when he heard Duncan's voice.

"Hey Duncan," Beastboy sighed, as he made his way to his locker. "I've decided that Mr. Lundt is a total douchebag." Duncan laughed when he heard this.

"Yeah, I know what you're talking about," he agreed. "He has some issues with children or something. But just ignore him… he won't go away or anything, but at least you can go longer without getting a migraine that way."

The green Titan chuckled, as he opened up his locker. He threw his books into his backpack, threw one strap on his shoulder, and closed it. When Beastboy was about to make a joke about Mr. Lundt, Duncan intervened.

"Here man," he began, handing Beastboy a red pamphlet of some sort. "Spread the word. I'd love to talk more, but my mom is waiting for me outside. See ya tomorrow, man."

As Duncan left in a hurry, Beastboy looked down at the red pamphlet. It said:

Attention all freshmen, sophomores and juniors and seniors of Jump High School!

Do you have the need to dance? Do you ever have the urge to forget about schoolwork and actually enjoy going to school? Well, we have some good news for you. The annual Jump High School Dance Social is nearing. On April 22, at 6-9pm. Live entertainment. Punch and food will be provided for free. Cost of admission is $5 per person. Go to the front office to pay and get yourself on the list now. We all hope to hear from you all soon.

'… This is a sign, if I have ever seen one,' Beastboy thought, as he looked up into the sky. He was thinking about asking Terra to go to the dance with him. To him, it was nothing better. Just the idea of dancing with Terra and attempt to get back together with her was enough to make this whole nightmare worth it. Now, almost in a daze, he stumbled down the halls and made his way home, not bothering to morph into any kind of animal.

He wanted to daydream about that thought a little longer.

With Terra and Her Friends

Tiffany and Sarah stood in front of Terra, keeping her from leaving the school. The blond girl looked up, to see her two friends with suspicious looks. They both stood there, with their hands on their hips.

"Umm," Terra began, a little cautious. "Yeah?"

"Okay Tara, spill it," Tiffany began.

"Yeah, spill it!" Sarah agreed. "What is it between you two? You act like you know him or something." When the blond girl didn't answer immediately, Tiffany took up where Sarah left off.

"First, you completely deny you know him, in his and our faces. Then, when he wouldn't believe you, he practically begs you to go out on a date. Then, when that didn't work out, he ends up enrolling in the same school as you? And starts attending your classes? Tara, he is a stalker! You need to tell someone about it before…"

Tiffany was stopped when Terra raised her hand. "Don't worry," she assured. "He is not a stalker… I actually know him."

Her two friends looked at her in disbelief. "What? Seriously?" Sarah asked with a raised eyebrow. "Then why did you act like you didn't know him?"

To this, Terra took a few seconds to think of a lie. She OBVIOUSLY couldn't tell them the truth. So, after take a few seconds to think, she looked at Sarah with a straight face. "We… used to," she blushed when she decided to stick with this lie. After taking another breath, she said it. "We used to date."

"OOOOH MY GOD!" The sound of the two girls squealing was enough to make Terra cripple in pain. She knew going in that this was going to be their reaction. But, that was the only one she could think of.

"Why didn't you tell us sooner," Tiffany asked. "That wasn't worth hiding from us. How long did you two know each other?"

Taking another breath, the blond girl sighed. "Childhood friends, back when I lived in Texas," she lied. "But, we grew up and grew apart. We tried dating a few times. But it just didn't work out." Tiffany and Sarah looked at one another. Simultaneously, they both had the same idea.

"Well, maybe there is a way to fight that, girl," Tiffany said reaching into her pocket. She handed Terra the pamphlet. After Tara accepted it and read it, she looked up in surprise. "We feel better knowing that green weirdo is actually an old flame of yours. You should totally ask him to go with you."

Tara look at her in disbelief. "What are you talking about? We USED to go out. Emphasis on the USED TO. We broke up for a reason."

Rolling her eyes, Sarah snickered. "What about during English?" she asked. "If you were over him, you wouldn't have been blushing the way you were. That told us something… And now we know."

Thinking about it, Terra looked down, unsure. "I don't know…"

"Well, he certainly has the hots for you, that's for sure," Tiffany teased. "He is like a love sick puppy when he is around you."

As her two friends walked forward, teasing and giggling at her, Terra looked at the invitation… What should she do? Should she listen to her head... or her heart?

To Be Continued….

Hahahahahahahaha! That was awesome! I know, I know. Short chapter and too much happening. I know, you don't need to tell me. That is why some very dramatic stuff is about to rear it's ugly orange half face… Hint hint. That's right. I will explain more on Tiffany, Sarah, and all of the other characters you don't know much about. If you have any questions, please tell me. Because I can answer them. I know things seem to be happening too fast. But don't forget, it will take a whole two months until the dance. A lot can happen in that amount of time. So please enjoy the cute ride until then. Please leave plenty of reviews, if liked. Hope to hear from you all soon! PEACE!
