I gasped.
'WHAT?!' I kept re-reading the letter until my conscience screamed,
Alright already!
'Sorry. I'm just so excited!'
Uh-huh. Your point?
'Oh you just shut up.'
I spun around. "YES! YES! YES!!" I screamed.
"Anna!" I stopped spinning. "What's wrong?" Robin and the others were at my doorway.
"Oh nothing." I chirped. "Nothing at all."
Friday. One more day. I didn't want to say or do anything that would…….change anything around here. I waited until Kole's party because there, my bow and arrows would be less noticeable.
Saturday. It was the day of Kole's party. The titans and I piled into the T-Ship and headed off to the Arctic Circle.
When we got there, the place was already filled with about a dozen titans. Kole bounced over greeted us.
"Hi guys!" she grinned. "Okay, so the foods over there-" she pointed to a table loaded with various fruits and dishes, "-I've got Speedy monitoring the music-" she pointed to Speedy who was at a stereo like a DJ, "-and the dance floors over there." Kole nodded towards a space in the middle that had colored lights surrounding it.
"I'm going to the food, don't wait up!" Cyborg made an immediate beeline towards the food.
"I thought Gnarrk didn't like technology." Robin turned to Kole. She shrugged.
"Ever since the battle in Pairs, he's gotten sort of used to it. You know, with all of the communication, and stuff." Robin nodded.
"Cool…….I think I'm going to go catch up with Hop Spot." Kole nodded and started a conversation with Jinx.
"So, how are you? I haven't……." While they were talking, I looked around.
I saw more titans arriving and hanging out. I noticed Bumblebee was keeping a close eye on Kid Flash and Beast Boy; I laughed in spite of myself.
This is your time to move! Go! My conscience urged me.
Since I knew what to do, I had actually brought my bow and a few arrows, about four to be exact.
I noticed Kole was now talking to a blond boy with green eyes and Jinx was standing off to the side, not really paying attention.
Kid Flash and Cyborg were munching at the food table, the conversation was,
"Dude! Try this!" or "This is good!" Jinx took a deep breath; I drew back the arrow while I was hiding in some leaves.
"Kid Flash, I-Whoa!" She tripped over a tree root that was sticking out and Kid Flash ran to catch her. I released and the arrow hit Kid Flash square in the back.
'YES!' I pumped my fists. 'YES! YES! YES!!' I did my victory dance as Kid Flash pulled Jinx into a hug. She was shocked and then gave into the hug. She was even more shocked when Kid Flash moved his hand up to her cheek and kissed her. Then I did my victory dance to celebrate my victory dance.
I snuck over to where Starfire was discussing something with Raven…something about alien food I think. I also saw Robin walked over.
"Excuse me Raven, but may I cut in." Raven smiled a bit.
"No. Not at all." She nodded at Robin then left. Starfire looked down at her feet.
"Starfire….." Robin exhaled. "Look, I'm really sorry about how I acted yesterday. And I just want you to know that I-" he was cut off by another arrow, hitting him in the back. "I love you Star." Starfire looked up.
"Really?"
"Yes." The two leaned in and kissed softly.
'Wow…..they really liked each other.' I thought.
Got that right.
I crept back over to the food area where Cyborg was now eating alone, as happy as a clam; Beast Boy had joined him.
Out of the corner of my eye, I noticed Raven walk over in search of something mild to eat.
"Hey Rae, try this." Beast Boy held out a plain roll. Raven reached out and took it.
"……Thanks." Beast Boy nodded before going back to eating. Raven's eyes scanned the table for something to go with her rather dry roll.
"Beast Boy?" The green changeling looked up.
"Yeah?"
"What's that?" Raven pointed to a white substance on Beast Boy's plate.
"Oh. That's tofu spread. I asked Kole if she would get some for the party.
"Oh……Could I……..Could I have some?" Beast Boy's eyes widened in surprise, shock, and delight.
"Really?" Raven nodded. "Sure!" He scooped a spoonful of the tofu spread onto the roll until it was dripping in the creamy white spread.
"……Thanks." She began to walk away.
"….Oh, and Rae?" She turned around. Beast Boy walked up to her, put both hands on her shoulders, and kissed her on the mouth. After he pulled back, he went over and started a conversation with Aqualad.
"Hey dude! What's up?……"
Raven touched her lips and then went to recap the whole thing to Starfire while I was grinning ear to ear.
Almost done
Okay people, I'm almost done. I think one more chapter should do it and then I can finish this one and move on to my friendship drabbles! And if you looked hard enough, I put some JerichoxKole in there – aren't they just the cutest?
And I'm also sorry for the long wait. I'm on vacation and I've been slacking in my writing, but I have gotten up a few vids!
