Disclaimer: I do not own any of the characters in this fanfiction.
Warning: I am using the Teen Titans from the animated series, I am much more familiar with them, and I like them better, that and the fact that no relationhips are truly decided quite yet makes writing on them that much more easy/fun. Also, this will be mostly about a female/female relationship, so if you are a homophobe, please send me your flames ... I personally need a good laugh about now.
Raven's Star
Chapter 3: That Wonderful Kiss
` Starfire looked at the sky from where she sat and let out a sigh. 'Raven still has not come out from her room, and no one is allowed in. Perhaps she is angrier with me than I thought.' Starfire sat at the edge of the roof, with the win tugging at her as she gazed at the storm clouds that had gathered in the sky.
'It seems the whole day has turned sour.' Starfire thought as she sat there, completely miserable at the thought of having one of her friends angry with her. So wrapped up in her sorrow, Starfire never heard the soft footfalls of someone approaching from behind her.
***********************************************************************
Raven was determined to set her emotions straight. If she had no control what good would she be to her friends? As she cimbed the stairs she was silent in thought. She knew what was going on, but had never dealt with it before in her life.
Raven never dreamed that she'd ever become attatched to a person, especially over something as trivial as an innocent kiss. She also dreaded what might happen to her control if it turned out to be genuine affection. She didn't know what to do. She couldn't not care. If she didn't care, then she wouldn't bother with saving lives, or protecting her friends. She couldn't just turn off her heart.
She came to the doorway leading out to the roof, and felt a heavy presence outside at the edge.
'I guess the guys were right, she did come up here' Quietly, Raven opened the door and saw Starfire sitting there, head at a downward angle, her back to Raven.
'Alright ... here we go ...' Raven coached herself as she approached the girl before her. 'Why does this seem so difficult?' Raven thought to herself as her pulse quickened, and her legs threatened to fall from beneath her.
***********************************************************************
"*sigh* even when she's sad, she's beatuiful." Said the new Raven.
"But, what if she doesn't like us for avoiding her all day?" came a timid voice from the Raven in grey, shaking slightly.
"C'mon, we won't get anything done just standing here!" Voiced the green Raven, who then seemed ready to push the others out of her way.
"Yes, let's go." new Raven said, determined to talk to Starfire.
***********************************************************************
"Um ... Starfire?"
"Hm?" Starfire voiced as she turned to see who was trying to get her attention. "Oh! Raven, I am so glad to see that you have come out from your room!"
'What? She's glad to see me? After I went through all that trouble of avoiding her?' Raven was baffled.
"Y-you are?"
"Why, of course! I thought that you were so angry with me for that kiss that you would never speak to me again!"
"Angry?" Raven was really confused now, but she knew that if she did not get down to the reason she came here soon, she wouldn't be able to bring it up later.
"Hold on, I cam up here to ask you something." Raven said, cutting to the chase as quickly as possible.
"Um, yes? What is it?" Starfire's face fell, she knew it was too good to be true, Raven must still be mad about the kiss.
"Why?"
"The kiss? Well I don't really know for sure. But, when I first woke up I-" Starfire began, but was drown out due to the thundercrack, and heavy rain that began to fall.
"Raven! Let us move inside, and dry off!" Starfire shouted, the heavy rain muffling her voice. Raven merely nodded.
"When you are done, will you meet me in my room, so that we may speak further?" Starfire shouted her question. Raven stood quiet, the rain had now thoroughly soaked her. She stood there for a moment, then nodded once again. Both girls then disappear through the doorway leading to the stairs.
***********************************************************************
Raven wes nervous and cold from the rain, the memory of the wind still fresh in her mind. she stood before Starfire's room and was lost in thought again. Her emotions were getting away from her, but her powers haven't acted up since that incident in the the kitchen. This could only mean that they were building up, and something bad was going to happen.
Slowly, Raven reached her hand out and knocked on the door, in firm, even knocks.
"Raven? Is that you?" Came Starfire's voice from the other side of the door.
"It's me." Said Raven, her voice trembling slightly at the task at hand.
"You can come in, the door is unlocked." Called Starfire.
Raven once again reached out her hand, but this time she grasped the door knob of Starfire's door. Her hands were sweaty, she noted, as she turned the knob. She entered quickly and shut the door behind her. Turning around, she spotted Starfire.
Starfire hadn't been planning on going out at all for the rest of the day, so she had already donned her purple pajamas, and she sat at the head of her bed, leaning against a rather large, and plush pillow.
"You wanted to talk to me some more?" Raven managed to say through the chattering of her teeth.
'Hmm, she must really be cold from the rain.' Thought Starfire as she observed Raven standing there at the foot of her bed and shivering. Starfire pulled back the corner of her fluffy blanket and crawled beneath it, and moved over, patting the empty space next to her.
"Come, you are cold, and you should come here under the covers so that we may warm each other." Starfire said matter-of-factly. After a moment of hesitation, Raven complied, though her movment toward the offered space was slightly rigid and awkward. She moved beneath the covers, her back to Starfire, and tensed as a pair of long, slender arms wrapped around her.
"So that we may share our warmth." Said Starfire, who's voice had a strange tone to it ... one of realization and determination, Raven decided. 'I guess she is really concerned about other people's temperature.' Reasoned Raven, grasping at straws.
Raven shivered one last time as the cold fled her body, and relaxed, oblivious now to the arms around her. She didn't notice for a long while that she was taking not of the exact feel of Starfire against her, from her chest on her back, to legs intertwined. 'What am I doing?!' thought Raven, as she got wind of her thoughts, and began to tense once again at the contact between her and Starfire.
"Raven ... I have something I need to tell you ..." Starfire began.
"What is that?" Ravens voice was a bare whisper, her voice failing her at the moment.
" ... Raven ... we Tamarans are a very emotion based people. When we feel an emotion, it is often very strong, and lasting." Starfire said, her voice now unsure, and her fingers idly twidling with each other, coincidentally on Ravens stomach.
Needing to break the contact on her stomach, Raven turned around, resting on her elbow as she faces Starfire.
"What are you getting at?" Raven asked.
"Um ... that is... I ... well, I ..." Starfire tried to speak, but then decided to act before she spole further. She reachd out and took Ravens shoulders, pulling her into an embrace, as she planted her lips on Raven's once again, only this time, she decided to forego innocence.
***********************************************************************
Raven's personalities were gather around their newest member, looking on as she began to shine. She stood a little taller, her arms and legs lengthening. Then, as suddenly as it began, the light winked out, and standing before them was no longer a fledgeling emotion, but Sunset Raven.
"Finally" she said as she breathed in deeply, glad to finally have her place among Raven's other emotions.
"Um ... I don't mean to interrupt, but I think someone is approaching ..." came Grey's timid voice.
"Oh no they don't," Said Sunset, " no one is going to interrupt MY moment. Green, run interference, I'm going to make sure that we have privacy!"
"I'm on it!" Shouted the ever enthusiastic Green.
***********************************************************************
Out in the hallway Robin was on his way to Starfire's room, to ask why she hadn't used the training room yet today, couldn't let oneself go, dont you know? When he heard a light moan from the room he figured Starfire might be sick. 'I'd better check and make sure she isn't just faking it, not that she's ever done that before.'
"Hey Star, you havent been in th-" Robin had entered the room and was about to ask Starfire and was knocked back into the hallway when one of Starfire's bedposts ripped free as a bubble formed around the bed. As he landed with a loud thud, the door closed. The problem was, Robin's foot was in the way, so the door decided that, since it couldn't move the foreign object out of the way, that it would have to squash it paper-thin.
"YEEEAAAARRRGH!"
"Hey who's screamin' like a lil' wussy up in here?" asked Cyborg as he came to investigate the wailing. He then proceeds to double over in laughter as he sees Robin being thrashed by a wayward bedpost as a door makes a valiant effort to eat his foot.
"What are you laughing about Cywaughahahahahaha!" Beast boy laughs just as hard as Cyborg until the bed post spots them. If a bedpost could make a face, this one would either be grinning sinister-like, or giving the evil eye, but it can't, so it proceeded to knock Beast Boy out of the hallway and around the Common Room.
Robin finally manages to free his foot from the evil door with an apetite and is locked out of the room. Hearing Beast Boy's whimpering he passes Cyborg, who is too busy whincing at the sight, to help Beast Boy out of his predicament.
***********************************************************************
Raven is in bliss. She feels more complete than ever, and stops resisting the intimate exchange between herself and Starfire. Ravne wraps her arms about Starfire's neck and pushes forward with her own mouth, fully participating now.
Feeling Raven's consent, Starfire blindly seeks out Raven's hands with her own. Upon contact she intertwines her fingers with Raven's, pulles her arms out to the side and rolls atop the smaller girl, stradling her.
Breaking off the kiss, Starfire looks down into Raven's eyes, and Raven into Starfire's. Seeing that they both have the same emotion reflected back to them from within the other's eyes, the bring their faces closer together once again, but stop as their noses touch lightly.
"I love you."

A/N
Wow, who said that at the end? Not even I am sure. Those that read the chpter before it's rewrite know that this one is a far cry from the old one, going into more detail of Raven's mind and emotion than the previous one, and giving more reason to Raven's actions. At least, I think so. Well, don't be shy, tell me what you think!
