Shopping with Starfire.

Raven was roused by Death licking her face, and drooling all over her bed. Checking the clock beside her she was amazed to find it was 5 pm, and she had slept away most of the afternoon. She sighed, and sat up, petting Death on the head.
"Fruits and grains, huh?" she asked, looking around and noticing that the things Death had been chewing on were definatly NOT fruits and grains. One of her cloaks now lay in the corner Death had claimed, and on top of it was her diary. It was now drool covered and soggy, and she didn't even want to take it back from it.
"Are you hungry, Death?" she asked, and patted him on the head. After she had made her bed and straightend her room again she made for her bathroom, to wash the slobber from her face and hands. After that she went back to the room, where she found Death curled up in his corner, staring at the diary.
For a vague moment she wondered if it wanted to READ the diary, but she quickly dismissed the thought. Sighing, she explained that she would be back in a moment, and he should TRY and not destroy anything while she was gone.
-----------------
In the kitchen Raven raided the fridge, and she felt a pair of eyes on her back. Glancing over her shoulder breifly, she saw Starfire, watching her and looking like she wanted to say something, but didn't know how.
"Raven...Perhaps I could assist you in...whatever it is that you are doing?" Starfire asked, hovering over her shoulder. Raven only sighed.
"We don't have any fruit" "Perhaps you would go with me to the store of groceries? We could get anything you needed and do some bonding...It could...conceivably...be fun..."
Raven sighed, and closed the fridge door. She nodded. "Sure. Lets go now and get this over with."
Starfire grinned and snatched a list off of the fridge onto which the Titans wrote down things they would like from the store. Star scribbled a few things down while Raven put on her shoes and grabbed her purse. She wondered if she should go out in her uniform, because usually when the Titans did, fans flocked and it was impossible to do anything.
There wasn't much time to wonder though, because Star grabbed her arm, and soon they were flying over the city in search of Stars favorite shopping store. They landed outside, and Starfire grabbed a cart while Raven pulled the hood of her cloak over her head.
Strolling in casually they checked the list and went down the first isle, Starfire calling things out and Raven fetching them.
"Sometimes its fun to be telekinetic," Raven thought, as she fetched a can of baked beans, and then two more.
"Where do we find Beast Boys tofu?" Starfire asked, as she crossed baked beans off of the list. Raven shrugged.
"I think we'll have to go to the health food store down on Fourth Street." She replied, and tossed in a can of spagetios, and then some canned fruit.
Starfire nodded, and looked overhead at the isle markers. "I would also like some hair accessories," she states, as the left the canned food isle, and went down the cereal and boxed food isle.
"Cocoa Puffs for Robin, Fruit Loops and Lucky Charms for BB, Cookie Crisp for Cy, Frosted Flakes for me, and Cheerios for you." Starfire rattled off, and Raven fetched. She also grabbed a box of Cinnamon Toast Crunch, and a box of strawberry Pop-Tarts. Starfire grinned and grabbed another box of Pop-Tarts and threw them in.
"Junk foods," Starfire said, and headed down the chips and cookies isle. They emerged a few minutes later with Doritos, Pringles, Double Stuffed Oreos, Mint Crème Oreos, and Double Fudge Oreos.
"Now for the drinks." Star announced, pushing the already half-full cart down one of the refrigerated isles.
Mountain Dew and Jones Soda were added to the cart, along with frozen dinners, a new bottle of maple syrup, two boxes of frozen waffles, Lunchables of all varieties, and a package of Capri Sun.
Raven and Star then headed towards the fresh produce section, where Raven got some apples and oranges, a pear two plums, a bunch of bananas, a nectarine and a pineapple. Starfire threw in a watermelon, and some tomatoes and lettuce, while Raven went to get some oatmeal.
The cart was overstuffed when Raven returned, and she grinned.
"Got everything on the list?" she asked, holding something behind her back, which Starfire could not see. Star checked the list twice.
"I believe so Raven, why do you ask?"
Raven grinned and showed Starfire a new package of barrettes, rubber bands and a hairbrush. Starfire smiled.
"Thank you, friend!" she exclaimed joyously, and hugged Raven tightly.
"You're HUGGING me," Raven said, and Starfire quickly withdrew. "I think we've got everything now." Raven said, and added two gallons of milk and a carton of orange juice.
Back at the Tower an hour later
"Can you believe how much we spent?" Starfire asked, while she and Raven were putting away the groceries.
"We got everything though, so we won't have to go again for a while." Raven threw the cereal into the cupboard, and threw the old empty ones out. Starfire was re-organizing the fridge to accommodate all the new groceries.
"Ah....thanks for going with me," Raven said, and handed Star a couple of Oreos. Starfire nodded.
"You are welcome friend. Tell me, would you like to help make the dinner?" Starfire asked, before shoving all three Oreos into her mouth at once. Raven shook her head.
"Sorry, but I've got to go meditate. I'll do dishes though." Raven said and snatched the pear out of its bag. Doing dishes was a joke though, because none of the Titans ever did the dishes. They only had to put them in the dishwasher, and take them out when they were done. Starfire nodded.
"As you wish Raven." Raven heard, as she retreated to her room, pear in hand, to see how much damage Death had done.
