Chapter 10: Pick Up
"Have they already left?" Raven asks, Beast Boy is laying down in the couch watching the TV.
"Yeah, Robin went to Gotham, while Cy and Star took the T-Car to Japan" Beast Boy answers, while flicking through the channels "What time are we going to pick them up?" Beast Boy asks, Raven looks at the clock.
"We? I'm going to pick them up when my communicator goes off" Raven answers, Beast Boy looks down but back up at Raven.
"Why can't I go?" Beast Boy asks with a frown.
"I have enough taking care of 3 kids I don't need another one" Raven jokes.
"Good luck with that...3 kids on a busy public bus, you might need someone else there to help out" Beast Boy insists, Raven has a short sigh to herself.
"Fine...you can go" Raven says, Beast Boy throws his arms in the air in victory.
"Yeah! I'm great with kids, my jokes will keep them laughing for days" Beast Boy says confidently with a smirk, Raven simply rolls her eyes.
"Why did you want to stay to look after the kids?" Raven asks, Beast Boy seems unprepared for that question as he accidentally drops the remote on the floor.
"er...well...I..." Beast Boy stutters trying to think of an answer "I didn't want to leave you alone with the kids, anyway I want to make sure they don't go in my room as well" Beast Boy answers folding his arms "That's the best lie I could come up with?" Beast Boy questions his lie.
"What's wrong with your room?" Raven asks.
"er...I don't want them to see my room a total mess" Beast Boy answers while scratching the back of his head.
"Your room is always a mess how will this be any different?" Raven bombards Beast Boy with another question.
Beast Boy picks up the remote off the floor "er...it's more of a mess?" Beast Boy answers.
Raven has a simple shrug, Beast Boy continues to flick through the channels "There's nothing on...anything you want to watch?" Beast Boy asks, Raven shakes her head "Come on...what about Pretty Pretty Pegasus?" Ravens eyes shoot open in surprise.
"No...i don't even know what that show is" Raven says while looking away from the TV with Pretty Pretty Pegasus on.
Beast Boy gets a sly smile "Oh...Really?" Beast Boy taunts, Raven has some occasional glances at the TV.
"er...I've never heard of it" Raven answers.
"Hmm...i guess the Pretty Pretty Pegasus action figure I saw in your room was nothing then?" Beast Boy taunts, Beast Boy moves closer to Raven taunting her.
"Is that what it was...I never knew" Raven says while folding her arms, again having some looks at the TV show.
"Hmm...so your saying you haven't watched the show?" Beast Boy asks, Raven shakes head.
"I haven't watched it" Raven answers.
Beast Boy taps the bottom of his chin "I guess to poster in your closet was nothing as well" Raven suddenly stands up out of her seat.
"You went in my closet!" Raven yells.
Beast Boy raises his hands up waving them childishly "No...No...I...er...was looking for a new hood and I saw it" Beast Boy answers, Raven puts her hands on her hips.
"Never...ever go in my closet again!" Raven orders.
"er...I won't go in it again...trust me" Beast Boy says, Raven has a short sigh to herself and sits back down in her seat "She probably thinks I'm a total pervert!" Beast Boy thinks to himself.
"Going into a girls closet? That doesn't sound perverted at all" Raven thinks sarcastically.
"It's true you like Pretty Pretty Pegasus right?" Beast Boy asks again with another sly smile.
"Fine...i like it ok" Raven admits, Raven looks at Beast Boy expecting a burst of laughter from him.
"Cool, who's your favourite character? Mine is Sparkleface" Beast Boy says, Raven eyes suddenly widen looking at Beast Boy.
"What? You like that show too?" Raven questions, Beast Boy nods enthusiastically.
"Of course I do, it's a cool show" Beast Boy answers while giving a thumbs up to Raven "So...whose your favourite character?" Beast Boy asks again.
"Well its-" Raven gets interrupted as her communicator goes off "Hello? Melvin?" Raven answers.
"Hi Raven, the monks have gone, we're waiting outside" Melvin answers.
"We'll be right there, don't talk to anyone until we get there" Raven says.
"We won't" They all answer into the communicator.
Raven closes her communicator "We need to set off"
The two stand up out of there seats "Lets get going" Beast Boy says, Raven nods as she raises her arms surrounding the two of them with dark energy "This is so cool" Beast Boy compliments.
"When will Raven be here?" Timmy asks.
"She said she'll be here right away" Melvin answers "Quit chewing my boot Teether" Melvin says while getting her boot out of Teethers mouth who's having a short giggle to himself.
"I told you not to chew Melvin boot" Someone says standing behind them.
Melvin, Timmy and Teether turn around to see Raven and Beast Boy standing there "RAVEN!" They all shout as they rush to Raven, Raven gets down to her knees as they group embrace Raven in a short hug.
Beast Boy's jaw is hanging in the air "When does Rae ever let anyone hug her?" Beast Boy is very confused, Beast Boy feels a small tug on his hand, he looks down to see Teether taking his pacifier out of his mouth.
"Animal Boy?" Teether says, Beast Boy shakes his head.
"Its Beast Boy" Beast Boy answers.
Raven stands up "It'll be a short walk to the bus stop, so we better get moving" Raven orders, Teether walks in front of Raven gesturing with his arms that he wants to be picked up, Raven picks Teether up.
Everyone nods at Ravens order, but Raven still seems confused she looks around the area "Where's Bobby?" Raven asks.
"I'm able to bring him out whenever I want to" Melvin answers, Raven supplies a short nod.
"Melvin and Timmy can you hold Beast Boys hands?" Raven asks, Melvin nods and holds Beast Boys hand, Timmy folds his arms sitting on the floor "What's wrong Timmy?"
"I want to hold your hand!" Timmy shouts causing everyone to hold there ears.
"Fine you can hold my hand" Raven says, as she hold her hand out, Timmy has a small cheer to himself as he grabs Ravens hand.
Beast Boy holds his hand up to his face having a small sniff "My hand doesn't smell does it?" Beast Boy asks, Melvin has a short giggle at Beast Boys joke "I've already got one of them to laugh 1 down...2 to go"
The group sets off to the bus stop, as they are walking through the forest "So where are the monks going on vacation?" Beast Boy asks.
"They went to Hawaii" Melvin answers.
Beast Boys eyes suddenly shoot open "Hawaii?" Beast Boy says, Melvin nods "How come you guys can't go?" Beast Boy asks, he feels Melvins grip on his hand gets tighter.
"They just said no kids are aloud" Melvin answers "I wish I was older" Beast Boy shakes his head.
"Its fun being a kid, you can do what you want, sit around watching TV, playing video games all day" Beast Boy says, Raven over hears there conversation.
"You do that everyday anyway" Raven says, causing a small smile to appear on Melvin.
"Hey, you should try it sometime" Beast Boy says to Raven, Raven slowly shakes her head.
"I'm not lazy" Raven says, causing a sneaky smile to appear on Beast Boys face.
"Well your not lazy when your watching Pretty Pretty Pegasus" Beast Boy jokes, Raven has a short sigh to herself.
A few minutes pass as there still walking to the bus stop "Are we there yet?" Timmy asks.
"Just another few minutes and we'll be there" Raven answers.
Timmy again stops in place, Raven looks to her side at Timmy "What's wrong?" Timmy gestures with his arms that he wants to be picked up "Beast Boy can you carry Timmy?" Raven asks.
Timmy lays on the ground banging his arms on the ground "I want Raven to carry me!" Timmy shouts, Raven has a short sigh to herself, Raven is about to hand Teether over to Beast to carry until Teether won't let go of her cloak.
"Want Raven" Teether says.
"I can't carry them both, Timmy has gotten bigger since the last time I saw him" Raven thinks to herself.
"How about...you let Rae carry Teether to the bus stop, then Rae will carry you to the Tower" Beast Boy asks Timmy, Raven seems surprised at Beast Boys mature way of handling it.
Timmy nods his head as Beast Boy picks Timmy up "This was a bad idea...he's so heavy" Beast Boy complains to himself, Raven gives Beast Boy a short smile telling him good job.
The group arrive at the bus stop to see they have to wait another few minutes for the next bus, Beast Boy puts down Timmy, while Raven who attempts to put Teether down again clings onto her cloak, Raven struggles getting Teether off her cloak which doesn't seem to have worked so she decides just to continue to carry him, Beast Boy quickly notices this "Clingy isn't he?" Beast Boy says, Raven nods agreeing with Beast Boy.
"So how long until the next bus?" Beast Boy asks.
"5 minutes" Raven answers.
Raven turns to Melvin and Timmy "Remember to be on your best behaviour on the bus, no running around ok?"
"We promise" Melvin and Timmy say in unison.
Raven nods at them but Beast Boy soon approaches her "Your being very motherly aren't you? Didn't think you was the type" Beast Boy comments.
"I'm just looking out for them that's all" Raven answers.
"I know, I'm just saying it's pretty cool" Beast Boy comments.
The bus arrives in front of them, Melvin and Timmy run onto the bus and take there seats, Raven and Beast Boy sit together behind them with Teether on Ravens lap "So...how long does it take on the bus?" Beast Boy asks, Raven gives a small shrug as she keeps her eyes on Melvin and Timmy looking out the window, Beast Boy nudges Raven "Watch this" Beast Boy says, Raven raises her eyebrow wondering what he's doing.
Beast Boy looks over in front of him at Melvin and Timmy "Do you guys want to here a joke?" Beast Boy asks, Raven holds her head with her hand dreading the worst.
"Please say no" Raven thinks to herself, Melvin and Timmy nod, Raven sits back in her seat "Maybe kids will find his jokes funny"
"What do you call a fly with no wings?" Beast Boy asks, Raven is already shaking her head, Melvin and Timmy shrug.
"What is it?" Timmy asks.
"You call it a Walk haha, get it" Beast Boy laughs at his own jokes, Raven has a peek at Melvin and Timmy to see if they're laughing or not, Melvin bursts with laughter at Beast Boys joke while Timmy tilts his head.
"I don't get it" Timmy says.
Beast Boy opens his mouth ready to explain but Raven sits forward "Don't even try to explain it" Raven says, Beast Boy nods his head.
A few minutes pass, Raven is busy looking out the window, while Beast Boy is looking up very bored "So...Bored..."Beast Boy thinks to himself until he notices something, Beast Boy again nudges Raven grabbing her attention "Look" Beast Boy says while he points at Ravens lap, Raven looks down to see Teether asleep on her lap.
"At least he won't be clinging as much" Raven says, Raven looks up at the seats in front of her to see Melvin and Timmy not there "Where are Melvin and Timmy?" Raven asks.
Beast Boy looks up "er...they were there like a few minutes ago" Beast Boy says hesitantly.
Raven shakes her head "Go look for them" Raven says.
Beast Boy stands up out of his seat "Fine" Beast Boy says, Beast Boy walks down the aisles of the bus searching for his little friends "If I was a kid...on a bus...where would I go?" Beast Boy asks himself.
Beast Boy walks pass a row of empty seats, Beast Boy bends down looking under the seats to see Timmy lying there, Beast Boy sits in the chair beside him "er...Chairs are better when you sit on them...not lie under" Beast Boy says.
"SHHH" Timmy says, Beast Boy tilts his head confuse.
"Why do I have to be quiet?" Beast Boy asks.
"Melvin will find me" Timmy says as silent as he can.
Beast Boy taps the bottom of his chin thinking what them two could possible be doing, Beast Boy clicks his fingers "You guys are playing hide and seek right?" Beast Boy asks, Timmy nods "How about we play hide and seek when we get to the Tower?" Beast Boy asks, Timmy shakes his head.
"I found you!" Melvin yells while pointing at the two of them.
Melvin walks over to the two of them, while Timmy gets to his feet "NO FAIR!" Timmy yells causing the window next to them to crack "YOU TOLD HER!" Timmy shouts, causing the window to completely smash.
"I didn't anyway you two need to quit playing hide and seek on the bus" Beast Boy says.
Melvin lowers her head "But we're bored" Melvin says.
"I'm bored too, but just think of all the fun you guys can have when you get to the Tower, trust me it'll be worth it" Beast Boy attempts to bribe them.
"What's so special at the Tower?" Melvin asks.
"Everything, we have games, movies and everything you could think of" Beast Boy says confidently.
"Really?" Both Timmy and Melvin say in unison, Beast Boy gives a strong nod.
"Fine we'll sit down...it better be worth it though" Melvin says.
Beast Boy stands up out of his seat "It'll be worth it, if your good I'll even let you guys have a look at Cyborgs stuff" Both Melvin and Timmy have a huge smile on there face, as Beast Boy leads them back to there seats, Beast Boy sits beside Raven "Told you I'd bring them back" Beast Boy says very confidently.
"Thanks" Raven says as she rests her head on her hand "How did you get them to come back?" Raven asks.
Beast Boy gets a sneaky smile on his face "I told them they can go in your room" Beast Boy jokes, Raven returns a sharp glare at Beast Boy.
The bus comes to a sudden halt, as Raven hands the sleeping Teether over to Beast Boy, the group get off the bus and immediately Timmy goes up to Raven "Up" Timmy demands, Raven picks Timmy up, as the group are walking through Jump City.
"WOW...this is Jump City...it's so huge" Melvin compliments.
"It's not that big, the Tower is even bigger" Beast Boy comments.
Melvins eyes widen "Really?" Melvin asks, Beast Boy gives a confident nod.
"Are we there yet?" Timmy asks.
"Just another few minutes" Raven answers.
Teether begins to shuffle around as Beast Boy continues to carry him, Teether opens his eyes to see Beast Boy, Teether begins to cry, Beast Boy is stunned that he's crying "What did I do?" Beast Boy asks.
"W...want Raven" Teether cries.
"Rae, I think this one is broken" Beast Boy says, Raven looks over her shoulder at Beast Boy.
"Just try to quiet him down" Raven says, Beast Boy begins to think of different ways to quiet him down, Beast Boy gets a sudden idea, Beast Boy shapeshifts into a Bear, Teether quietens down looking on at Beast Boy.
"B...Bear?" Teether questions while pulling Beast Boys ear.
"Looks like Beast Boy got him to quiet down" Raven comments to herself, as they continue to walk to the Tower, while on the walk down Beast Boy shapeshifts into a ton of different animals to entertain Teether who joyously clapping his hands.
"How about a horse?" Melvin asks, Beast Boy hands Teether over to Melvin and shapeshifts into a horse, suddenly Melvin puts Teether on Beast Boys back, Melvin also climbs on Beast Boys back.
"Now I'm carrying them to the Tower on my back?!" Beast Boy comments to himself but he looks up to see that Melvin and Teether are enjoying the ride "At least they look happy?"
The group come to a stand still when they see the ocean in front of them, Beast Boy lowers Melvin and Teether down, Beast Boy puts his hand on Ravens shoulder "Don't worry I got this" Beast Boy comments as he dives into the Ocean to shapeshift into a whale, Melvin, Timmy and Teether clap there hands for Beast Boy as they climb on his back for him to carry them to the Tower, Raven sits down on Beast Boys back as well as they make there way to the Tower.
"Wow I'm so jealous of Beast Boys powers" Melvin comments.
"He put on over a 1000 pounds and your jealous?" Raven jokes, causing a grin to appear on Melvins face.
"Look!" Timmy says as he points off into the distance.
Melvin stands up "Is that the Tower?" Melvin questions.
"Yeah that's the Tower" Raven comments.
"It looks so Cool!" Timmy says, suddenly water sprays out of Beast Boys back, catching everyone off guard, the kids laugh at Beast Boy while Raven rolls her eyes.
"So...childish" Raven comments to herself.
They enter the Tower, Melvin, Timmy and Teethers eyes are looking around the whole tower as they walk down the hall into the main room.
"This looks so cool!" Melvin compliments again.
They walk into the main room "WOW, That's one big TV" Melvin compliments again.
"It has over 9000 channels from around the world, name any channel and it's got it" Beast Boy says confidently.
"Does it have Cartoon Network?" Timmy asks.
"Other than that...we're not paying for that" Beast Boy mumbles.
Melvin, Timmy and Teether rush to the sofa, watching TV "Told you it was easy, just put the TV on and the kids will be occupied for weeks" Beast Boy comments.
"I don't think so" Raven says as she sits on the sofa reading a book.
Beast Boy sits down on the sofa as well to watch TV with the rest of them "This will be so easy" Beast Boy comments.
"Give me the remote!" Timmy yells as he tries to grab the remote off Melvin.
"No it's my turn" Melvin says as she holds the remote up in the air higher than Timmy can grab.
"On second thoughts...this'll be hard" Beast Boy thinks to himself "Guys calm down, everyone can watch TV" Beast Boy tries to bring peace to the room.
"But I want it!" Timmy yells cracking some windows.
Beast Boy holds his ears "Just give him the remote" Beast Boy says, Melvin follows orders but folds her arms very upset.
"Not fair" Melvin mumbles to herself, Beast Boy notices this.
"Don't worry, this happens all the times with me and Cy, he cries over the remote all the time" Beast Boy whispers causing Melvin to giggle.
Raven has some occasional peeks at Beast Boy "He's actually taking it very serious" Raven thinks to herself, Raven gets out of her seat and walks out of the main room, Beast Boy watches her leave the room, Melvin notices this and pats her chin thinking.
"I'm bored" Timmy says.
Beast Boy turns his head looking at Timmy "What do you want to do? You've got the TV why not play a video game?" Beast Boy asks.
"Cool lets play" Melvin says as she picks up a controller, Timmy grabs one as well, Beast Boy grabs another one.
"Don't think I'll go easy on you guys because your kids" Beast Boy says confidently.
Raven walks inside her room putting her book down on the desk "It's only been an hour and I can't even think straight" Raven says to herself in the mirror, Raven has a short sigh to herself "At least your with Beast Boy" Pink Raven taunts, Raven simply shakes her head "There's nothing going on and...he's doing ok with the kids" Raven puts down the mirror, Raven hears aloud bang against the door, Raven opens the door "Hello?" Raven says but she soon looks down to see it's only Teether, Raven picks him up off the floor "What are you doing here?" Raven asks, Raven soon notices something in Teethers hand a piece of Cyborgs spare armour, Raven takes it out of Teether hand and walks to Cyborgs room, Raven enters Cyborgs room to see a lot of his room has been chewed, Raven looks at Teether "I should have kept my eye on him"
"Hey Rae, what's up?" Beast Boy walks in "I saw Cy's door open so...what the heck happened in here?!" Beast Boy asks.
"Teether some how got in here...and this happened" Raven answers.
Beast Boy bends down picking up a piece of Cyborgs armour scattered across the floor "Cy's going to kill us" Beast Boy says as he throws the piece back to the floor.
"We should have kept our eyes on him" Raven says, Beast Boy nods.
"We'll have a lot of explaining to do" Beast Boy says, Beast Boy pulls out his communicator, Raven raises her eyebrow.
"What are you doing?" Raven asks.
"I'll tell Cy now so he won't be as angry when he gets home" Beast Boy says.
"Hello? BB?" Cyborg answers.
"Hey Cy what's up?" Beast Boy says.
"er...nothing, just got done kicking butt in a tournament with Star" Cyborg answers.
"That's cool" Beast Boy says, Raven leaves the room.
"So what do you want?" Cyborg asks.
"Oh...it's just one of the kids got in your room and..." Beast Boy gets interrupted.
"You let the kids in my room?!" Cyborg shouts.
"Well...i didn't let them, they just happened to be there" Beast Boy scratches the back of his head.
"They didn't do anything did they?" Cyborg asks.
"They did nothing...other than Teether chewed a lot of stuff in your room" Beast Boy quickly answers.
"WHAT!" Cyborg yells, Beast Boy hangs up his communicator and exits the room, to see Raven standing there holding Teether still.
"Well I told him" Beast Boy says.
"What did he say?" Raven asks.
"He said 'what' then I hung up" Beast Boy answers.
"Great way of handling that" Raven says sarcastically.
"I didn't see you coming up with any bright ideas so I took the lead" Beast Boy says.
Raven gives Beast Boy a small shrug and walks back into the main room with Melvin and Timmy while Beast Boy stands outside Cyborg wrecked room "well...he did say he wanted his room redecorated so..." Beast Boy closes Cyborgs door and walks back into the main room.
"So...what do you guys like to do other than watching TV?" Beast Boy asks as he sits on the couch beside Melvin.
"We're not sure" Melvin answers catching Beast Boy by surprise.
"What do you mean by not sure?" Beast Boy asks.
Raven looks up from her book eavesdropping in the conversation "Well...we have nothing to do when were with the monks" Melvin answers.
"They are stranded in the middle of nowhere with no arcades, candy or anything...wait I've got it!" Beast Boy gets an idea "Tomorrow, I'm going to take you guys on the best trip ever in Jump City, we're going to the arcades, Karaoke and much more" The kids cheer with joy.
"WOW!" Melvin says.
"Will Raven go?" Timmy asks.
Beast Boy scratches the back of his head and looks to his side at Raven "So...Rae will you?" Beast Boy asks.
Raven closes her book and places it to the side of her, Melvin and Timmy walk up to Raven "PLEASE!" They both say at the same time with puppy dog like eyes, Raven looks away from Melvin and Timmy, Raven looks at Beast Boy who is pulling the same face, Raven holds her forehead giving off a short sigh.
"Fine...I'll go" Raven says, the kids have a cheer to themselves, Beast Boy raises his arm in victory.
Melvin and Timmy sits around Beast Boy "What will we be doing tomorrow?" Melvin asks.
"First we'll go to the arcade, then we'll go to Karaoke, then we'll...go to the greatest pizza parlour" Beast Boy explains the plan, Melvin and Timmys eyes brighten with happiness.
"What's an arcade like?" Timmy asks.
"An arcade is the best place in the world" Beast Boy confidently says.
"In your world it's the best place" Raven says.
"Come on every kid loves the arcade trust me" Beast Boy says.
"When he says trust me...i trust him less" Raven thinks to herself until Teether sitting on her lap bursts into tears and cries "What's wrong?" Raven asks.
"I don't know is it broken or something?" Beast Boy asks, Raven turns her head raising her eyebrow.
"He's just hungry" Melvin answers, Beast Boy rocks his head back understanding.
Raven puts down Teether and walks into the kitchen looking in all the cupboards "What do we have that a baby can eat?" Raven asks herself.
"What about Tofu?" Beast Boy asks who's standing behind her.
Raven turns around facing Beast Boy "You're not feeding him Tofu"
"Don't worry I'm only kidding, what about microwaved pizza?" Beast Boy asks while raising a microwaved pizza box, Raven shakes her head.
"He's a baby, babies don't eat pizzas" Raven closes a cupboard "Keep your eyes on the kids I'll go to the shop and get some"
Raven vanishes before Beast Boys eyes "Anything you say Rae" Beast Boy mutters. Beast Boy walks back into the main room to see a giggling Melvin "er...did I say something funny?" Beast Boy asks.
Melvin shakes her head "hehe, anything you say Rae hehe" Melvin giggles, Beast Boys jaw has dropped.
"er...that's what team mates say to each other" Beast Boy says as he sits down on the couch.
"I don't say that to Timmy and Teether" Melvin says, Beast Boy scratches the back of his head.
"er...your young, so you'll learn one day about...team roles?" Beast Boy questions himself, Melvin gives Beast Boy a small shrug.
"But you do like Raven right?" Melvin asks, Beast Boy seems unprepared for that question.
"Of course, she's a member of my team" Beast Boy answers and folds his arms.
"No I mean like like" Melvin says with a mischievous smile on her face, Beast Boy breaks into a blush looking away from Melvin.
"You mean like like?" Beast Boy asks for confirmation, Melvin nods "er...no I don't..." Beast Boy takes a sip of his water.
"Then why are you blushing?" Melvin asks, Beast Boy spits out his water.
"Blushing? Oh...er...i had a veggie chilly today...it was kinda hot" Beast Boy answers as he wipes his forehead dodging a bullet, Melvin taps the bottom of her chin.
"So...it wouldn't bother you if I said..." Melvin has a short pauses and looks at Timmy who seems to have gotten the silent message from Melvin.
"Beast Boy and Raven sitting in a tree K.I.S.-" Both Melvin and Timmy begin to sing until Beast Boy puts his hands over both there mouths.
"Shh...one of the rules at the tower is...no singing about me and Rae" Beast Boy says, Melvin and Timmy nod, Beast Boy takes his hands off there mouths allowing them to speak.
"Now where would the baby food be?" Raven asks herself as she walks down the aisle of the shop "I think it's cute" Pink Raven says, Raven tilts her head as she picks up one of the containers "What's cute?" Raven asks "That your going to the shop getting baby food while Beast Boy watches the kids hehe" Pink Raven giggles, Raven has a short sigh to herself but suddenly Raven feels a strong impulse in her heart causing the container in her hand to explode.
"That's great" Raven says sarcastically "For the millionth time, me and Beast Boy have nothing going on!" Raven yells in her mind "That's what your head says...but what about your heart?" Pink Raven asks, Raven chooses not to answer that question and grabs one of the baby food containers, Raven purchases the baby food and teleports home.
Timmy continues to cry "I know he's hungry but why is he still crying?" Beast Boy asks.
"He might miss Raven" Timmy answers.
"Why does he like Raven so much?" Beast Boy asks.
"I'm not sure...Teether liked Raven before we did, we thought she was kinda scary" Melvin answers.
"Yeah...Rae can be scary some times" Beast Boy says.
"Oh really?" Someone stood behind him says, Beast Boy looks behind him and flinches.
"I mean...you used to be scary but now...your not as scary" Beast Boy trembles with fear as Teether stops crying "So...er...did you get the food?" Beast Boy asks.
"Yeah I've got it, I'll have a look at what the rest of us can have" Raven says, as she enters the kitchen.
Raven opens the cupboards "I don't think the kids would like fruit and Veg...why did you get so much Veg BB...why did I just call Beast Boy BB?" Raven asks herself as she closes the cupboard.
"What if we order a pizza?" Beast Boy asks, who been standing behind her the whole time slightly startling Raven.
"Ok...your paying for it though" Raven says, Beast Boy pouts with his bottom lip hanging out.
"W...why me?" Beast Boy asks.
"I paid for the baby food" Raven says as she puts her hands on her hips.
"But...I..." Beast Boy begins to stutter.
"You're paying for the pizzas" Raven says.
"Fine, I'll pay" Beast Boy says unenthusiastically.
The two titans walk into the main room with good news for the kids "We're getting a pizza!" Beast Boy says with enthusiasm the kids cheer "But I'll be paying for it..." The kids again cheer, causing Raven to flash a small smile but no one noticed it.
Raven sits down on the couch and immediately Teether crawls on her lap, Beast Boy takes his seat beside her with a phone in hand, Raven opens the baby food container, "Hello, I'd like to order a pizza for delivery, can we have a Veggie supreme and 3 Cheese and Tomato pizzas" Beast Boy has a short pause "We're at...Titan Tower" Another short pause from Beast Boy "This isn't a joke, I mean the real Titan Tower" Beast Boy hangs up the phone "They'll be here soon"
Raven begins to feed Teether the baby food "He really likes you doesn't he?" Beast Boy says, Raven nods, Melvin gets a sudden twinkle in her eyes.
"I know someone who likes you as well Raven" Melvin says, Raven raises her eyebrow.
"Who?" Raven asks, Beast Boys eyes suddenly shoot open knowing what Melvin is going to say.
"It's-" Melvin gets cut off by Beast Boy.
"It's Timmy of course" Beast Boy says interrupting Melvin.
Raven has a small shrug and continues to feed Teether, Beast Boy turns to Melvin "What's your game? I told you there is nothing going on" Beast Boy whispers to Melvin.
"You seem a little too frightened when I was going to tell Raven" Melvin whispers over.
"Well wouldn't you? It's Raven we're speaking about" Beast Boy whispers.
"What are you two whispering about?" Raven asks, Beast Boy and Melvin break up from whispering.
"Nothing" Both Beast Boy and Melvin say in unison.
"Are you full?" Raven asks Teether who has finished eating his baby food, Teether gives Raven a small nod, Raven moves Teether to the side and stands up walking in to the kitchen.
"Beast Boy and Raven sitting in a tree K.I.S.S.I.N.G first comes love then comes..." Melvin begins to taunt Beast Boy while whispering, Beast Boy breaks into another blush.
"Shhh" Beast Boy says.
"All I'm doing is singing" Melvin says.
"You know what your doing" Beast Boy says.
"Well...I.." Melvin stops herself as soon as Raven walks back into the main room, Beast Boy notices this and raises an eyebrow.
"She always stops as soon as Rae walks in the room hmm" Beast Boy thinks to himself.
A few minutes pass as there the doorbell gets rung, Beast Boy looks at Raven, Raven looks back at Beast Boy and shakes her head, Beast Boy has a short sigh to himself and gets out of his comfortable seat "So lazy" Raven thinks to herself about Beast Boy.
Beast Boy opens the door "Hey Pizzas here" Beast Boy says, the sluggish looking Pizzaboy hands over the pizza to Beast Boy "Thanks" The Pizzaboy puts his hand out expecting money from Beast Boy "er...do I get a discount for being a superhero?" Beast Boy asks, the Pizzaboy shakes his head "Fine" Beast Boy puts down the pizzas and goes in his wallet giving the Pizzaboy the money, Beast Boy closes the door and carries the pizzas up to the main room.
"Pizzas here!" Beast Boy yells as soon as he walks through the door, to be greeted by a cheer from the kids and Raven just rolls her eyes, Beast Boy hands over the pizzas to the kids as he takes his seat.
Timmy opens the first box "Eww...Veg" Timmy says, Beast Boy takes the box off of him.
"Veg is awesome" Beast Boy says as he bites into his first slice.
"Is that how you became so green?" Melvin asks, Beast Boy lowers his head.
"How did I know they was going to ask that one?" Beast Boy jokes.
Melvin hands Raven her pizza box "Thanks" Raven says to Melvin.
As the group continue to much into there pizzas while watching a few programs on TV a normal titan day for everyone "Is this really what being a Titan is about?" Melvin asks.
"Kinda...there's not much crime in Jump City any more" Beast Boy says, Melvin tilts her head.
"What's with all those flashing buttons on the wall then?" Melvin asks, Beast Boy turns his head looking at the flashing buttons.
"er...that's just to tell us the police has it covered" Beast Boy tells an obvious lie but Melvin doesn't persist to asking any more questions.
Beast Boy looks over at Raven after he finishes his pizza, Beast Boy moves his head closer to Ravens ear "Where will they be sleeping?" Beast Boy whispers over, Raven has a short think to herself.
"Starfires room" Raven says calmly.
"Why Starfires room?" Beast Boy asks.
"Robins room has too many posters of Slade, Cyborgs room is wrecked thanks to Teether, My room is too scary for them and your room is too messy" Raven answers swiftly.
Beast Boy rocks his head back and forth "I see...yeah your room does give me the creeps, so it'll probably give kids nightmares" Beast Boy says out loud, Raven gives Beast Boy a sharp glare "er...sorry" Beast Boy apologises.
A loud yawn emanates from Timmy which seems to be contagious as Melvin yawns as well while Teether sleeps on Ravens lap "You guys tired?" Beast Boy asks, Melvin and Timmy give a hesitant nod, The sun has completely setted "We need to have you guys fully rested for tomorrow, so we can have the best day ever!" Beast Boy says enthusiastically.
"YAY!" Melvin and Timmy yell, not waking Teether though.
"How about Rae take you to your room, then tomorrow you'll be fully rested" Beast Boy makes a deal with Melvin and Timmy who agree with Beast Boy and stand up off the couch.
Raven stands up out her seat carrying Teether "Lets go" Raven says, Beast Boy waves them off as Melvin and Timmy follow Raven down the hallway, Raven opens Starfires door and they all walk in, Melvins eyes are twinkling like stars.
"Whose room is this? Is it yours?" Melvin asks, Raven lies Teether on the bed and looks over her shoulder at Melvin.
"No it's Starfires room" Raven answers, Melvin and Timmy sit on the side of the bed.
"It's so pretty, I didn't know she loved teddies as well" Melvin comments as she grabs one of Starfires teddies.
"Star loves anything that looks cute" Raven says, Melvin and Timmy continue to watch Raven with there puppy dog like eyes, Raven has a short sigh to herself "Let me guess, you want a story"
"Yes please" Timmy says, Raven paces up and down the room trying to think of a story.
"I could tell them another story about my dad...but I didn't go to well last time" Raven thinks to herself until she stops in place.
"I know a great story" Someone says whose stood at the door, Raven looks at the door to see Beast Boy standing there with a grin on his face.
Beast Boy approaches Melvin and Timmy while Raven holds her head in anticipation "Please don't be a horror story, they'll have nightmares for weeks"
"It's a story about a cool monster with a great heart who likes a rather shy girl who is scared of the monster but grows to like him" Beast Boy describes the story.
Raven looks up surprised "That sounds like Beauty and the Beast but why is he choosing that story" Raven thinks to herself but soon looks at the bright faces of Melvin and Timmy "At least they look interested"
"This monster liked this girl for a long time, he thought that girl was the only one who understands him as she's also seen as an outcast because she's so shy" Beast Boy has a short pause.
"What does the monster look like?" Timmy asks.
"Well he's big, strong and very hairy with sharp teeth" Beast Boy describes.
"He sounds scary" Melvin says.
"Even though on the outside he looks scary on the inside he's as soft as a pillow" Beast Boy says causing a smile to appear on Melvins face, Beast Boy continues the story as Raven takes a seat listening as well.
"The longer the girl spent time with the monster the more and more she started to like him and see his delicate heart" Beast Boy has a short think to see how the story can continue "The monster and the girl spent a whole day together going to shops and amusements, even though they got stares from everyone they didn't care as they enjoyed themselves because they had each others company" Raven raises her eyebrow.
"I didn't know that was part of Beauty and the Beast?" Raven thinks to herself.
"As the monster and the girl grew closer and closer the happier and happier they each got, even though they may fight sometimes they're the best of friends, the end"Beast Boy finishes the story.
"Did the monster and girl get married?" Timmy asked.
"You'll have to wait and see, find out when I continue my story" Beast Boy says, as Raven pulls the covers on Melvin and Timmy as they lay down in Starfires soft bed.
"Goodnight guys" Beast Boy says.
"Goodnight Beast Boy and Raven" They both say.
The door closes and both Beast Boy and Raven give a sigh of relief "Wow they're tougher than I thought" Beast Boy comments, Raven nods agreeing with Beast Boy, the two Titans walk into the main room and sit down on the couch.
"It'll be even tougher tomorrow, I promised I'd take them to Jump City for the day" Beast Boy says.
"We'll be fine" Raven says "er...Beast Boy?" Raven calls out.
"What's up?" Beast Boy asks.
Raven folds her arms looking around the room "I'm glad your here to help me" Raven says while looking down.
Beast Boy has a short laugh "I'm glad your here, I'd have no idea what to do, we're a great team us" Beast Boy says.
"I guess so" Raven says, Raven stands up stretching her arms "I'm probably going to head to sleep" Raven says.
"Goodnight Rae" Beast Boy says.
"Goodnight BB" Raven says but suddenly puts her hand on her mouth, Beast Boy tilts his head confused, Raven lowers her hand off her mouth "I mean Beast Boy" Raven suddenly rushes out of the main room.
"What was that all about? She never calls me BB" Beast Boy thinks to himself.
Raven opens the door of her room and sits on the side of her bed "Why did I say that?" Raven asks herself "Am I not in control of my actions or emotions? I...don't know" Raven has no answers for herself, Raven lays back on her bed "I just need to be careful for tomorrow" Raven soon falls asleep.
