I was shocked and pleasantly surprised to find so many people liking my story! Thanks to everyone that took the time to read and review (especially Rhys Davies, I DO value constructive criticism). It makes writing it all the more satisfying. Teen Titans is not owned by me. And now chapter 3-

Raven sat up from her bed. It was the middle of the night, but she just couldn't get to sleep. All she could think of was Terra's comment 'He's mine'.

"Why does she think I like Beast Boy? He's obnoxious. He's never serious around me. He gets on my nerves on purpose. I don't like him...do I?"

She laid down on her side. "If I don't like him, then why am I still up thinking about this?" She tried to close her eyes and sleep. An image of Beast Boy appeared, he was storming out of Raven's room, just like what happened earlier that night.

Instantly her eyes opened. "I must be crazy."

The door of Raven's room slid open and she walked out into the darkness. She guided herself down the hall toward Beast Boy's room. She pulled the hood of her cloak down and stood looking at his door for a few minutes, lost in thought. She put her hand up and was about to knock but stopped herself.

"This is ridiculous. It's the middle of the night. I can't..."

Suddenly, a muffled voice came from behind his door.

Raven's eyes widened. "Terra?" she whispered as quiet as possible. She placed her ear against the door and quickly stepped back. "What am I doing?"

Without looking up, she briskly started to walk back to her room. With a thud, she bumped into something and got knocked back. "Ow!"

When she looked up, she saw it was Cyborg. "Cyborg! You're OK!" She dashed over to him and gave him a hug.

Cyborg was still a bit weak. "Whoa, hold on Rae. I'm still not operating at 100% here."

Raven stepped back and composed herself. "Sorry. What are you doing up?"

"I must have just regained consciousness. Last thing I remember was a giant rock knocking me out. So...what are you doing up then?"

Raven looked down. "I...can't sleep. That's all."

"Is that why you're by Beast Boy's room?"

Raven blushed. "N-no. It's just a coincidence." She desperately tried to change the subject. "I'm glad you're OK, Cyborg. I'd never forgive Terra if you were..."

Cyborg held up his hand. "It's alright, Raven. Don't worry about that right now."

Raven looked away. "I...gotta go." Once again, she briskly walked back to her room.

"Raven? If you need someone to talk to, I'm here for you."

"Yeah. Thanks." She hurried down the hall and ducked away into her room.

Raven got up at the break of dawn, only having a few hours of sleep behind her. Frazzled, she slowly walked down the stairs to the kitchen. It was too quiet. Nobody else would be up for a while. She started preparing some tea to help wake her up.

"Maybe I should see how he's doing." She stopped what she was doing and began to head back upstairs. Halfway up, she halted in her tracks.

"No. I'll do it this time." She hurried up the stairs and walked up to Beast Boy's door. Nervously, she knocked on it very quietly. "Beast Boy? Are you up?"

She could faintly hear movement. It was hard to tell what was going on. After a minute, she heard footsteps and the door opened. Beast Boy had obviously just woken up. His hair was mussed up and he was standing in his underwear.

Beast Boy rubbed his eyes. "Huh? Raven? What do you want? It's like 6:00."

Raven smirked at his appearance and turned around. "First put on some clothes."

"Yeah, yeah. Sure, sure." He meandered back into his room and came back with his usual black and purple suit on. "OK, what is it that can't wait until I'm officially awake?"

Raven didn't know exactly why she woke him up. She wasn't sure what to say so she blurted out what came to mind first. "I...I'm sorry about last night. I don't hate Terra...really." She hadn't really planned out what to say.

Beast Boy looked puzzled. "That it? Can I go to sleep now?"

Raven didn't want to admit she was a little jealous or that she just wanted to see him. "I...I guess so." As she turned around, Beast Boy grabbed her shoulder.

"Come on now. What is it really?"

Raven slowly lifted her right hand up and was about to touch his hand when another noise came from Beast Boy's room.

"Hmmm? Beast Boy? What's going on?" Terra had emerged from his room wrapped in a blanket, her hair spiking out in all directions. "Raven?"

Raven didn't look up or even look over at either of them. "Terra."

"What do you want, Raven? Do you realize what time it is?"

"I could say the same thing to you. What were you doing in Beast Boy's room?" She finally looked up at Terra.

"I don't think that's any of your business."

"Beast Boy's my friend. I'm making it my business."

Beast Boy jumped in front of them. "Whoa, girls! Let's not start anything here. It's too early for that."

"Fine. I'll be downstairs." Raven turned her nose up and walked away.

"Raven! Wait!" Beast Boy held his hand out but Terra grabbed him and wrapped the blanket around him.

They both fell to the floor swathed in the blanket. Terra hugged him from behind. "No, Beast Boy. Just let her go."

"Yeah, OK. I guess we should let her cool off."

"Cyborg, you're OK!" Terra ran up to him and hugged him. "I'm so sorry. I can't believe I..."

"Don't worry, little lady. I'm perfectly fine now. Well, I probably should take it a little easy, but I'm fine."

Robin walked up to the two of them. "Well, Terra. Are you ready to get in a good day's training?" He gave a thumbs up.

"You bet!"

"Is this where you normally train? In the basement of the tower?"

"Not normally, Terra. This is something new that we installed since you were here last." Robin flicked on the light switch. Inside was a dome shaped arena carved out of rock. On the right was a balcony for any spectators and the place was lit in an eerie green light.

"Neat! So, we get to duke it out gladiator style?"

"Not exactly, but we can practice our martial arts pretty easily."

The other four came down the stairs.

"So who gets to go first?" Terra said.

Beast Boy cracked his knuckles. "I'm game. Let's see if you can beat me. I'll even tie one arm behind my back."

Terra walked up to him and stared into his eyes. "And what are the rules?"

"No excessive use of powers and we fight until someone is knocked down."

Suddenly cheering came from the balcony.

Robin, Cyborg and Starfire had giant foam fingers and were whistling and cheering.

"Go Terra."

"I am rooting for you Terra."

Beast Boy scowled. "Gee, thanks guys."

Raven was sitting away from the others and twirled her finger around. "Um...Go Beast Boy." she said in her most apathetic voice.

Beast Boy grinned. "Thanks, Rae!"

Beast Boy and Terra were standing roughly twenty feet apart, poised to fight.

Robin yelled from the balcony. "Teen Titans...go!"

Chapter 4 will be up soon. Until then...
