Dedicated to The Uncanny R-Man for winning the competition and also to The Sage of the Story for writing such a lovely review.

Raven's Diary – I take no prisoners. I just destroy the evidence. So beware.
Day 8 – Morning
I woke up this morning to find those little drooling furballs curled up on the end of my bed. It took all of my self control not to blow them up. So I got dressed, went into living room, and dumped them on Cyborg.
"I'm warning you now. Keep them out of my room. Or I will turn them into gloves." Unfortunately Starfire heard and got very upset, so Robin made me reassure her that I didn't mean it.
Just because Robin is now dating Starfire, he acts like nothing else matters. Cyborg blew up three frying pans this morning and he didn't bat an eyelid.
I spent a couple of hours training. I think I may have put on weight. It's Starfire's fault. All those sponge cakes…
I wonder if Beastboy thinks I've put on weight.
Obviously I don't care if he does, but if I'm going to talk to him this afternoon it won't help if all he can do is comment on my weight.
I might go train a bit more. The training room is always empty since Robin broke his foot.
Afternoon
It's the end of the world.
No, I really mean it this time.
I'M SUCH AN IDIOT!!!!!!!!!!
Well, I just blew up another lamp.
Doesn't matter since I'm just gonna end up dying of embarrassment in here anyway. Might as well do it in the dark.
I just kissed Beastboy.
KISSED BEASTBOY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This is such a nightmare!
I was in the training room when Beastboy came in. I said that we needed to talk. He agreed.
"So, what do you wanna talk about?" He said.
"About us." I said, trying not to blush. Beastboy looked kind of weird at that.
"Yeah. Us. Um… you go first."
"Well, ever since Cyborg said that I had a crush on you, I've been feeling really weird about it."
"Totally." Beastboy agreed. I cleared my throat and asked,
"How do you feel about it?"
"Well, what about you?" he asked me.
As you can see, we were getting nowhere. And I was getting irritated.
"Can't you just answer the question?"
"Hey, you're not answering it either!" he shouted at me.
"Don't shout at me!" I shouted at him.
"Well stop shouting at me then!"
"I'm not shouting!" I said in an extremely loud voice. Beastboy was glaring at me.
"Whatever dude, if you're just gonna shout at me all day, there's no point in talking!"
"I'm not shouting! And we are going to talk about this!"
"Maybe I don't wanna talk about it!" Beastboy yelled.
"Well, you're going to, because I am fed up with having to avoid you!"
"You don't have to avoid me!"
"Yes, I do, because you won't talk about it!" I nearly shouted. Beastboy stepped towards me and yelled,
"Maybe there's nothing to talk about!"
"There IS something to talk about, and we are going to talk about it!"
"Well, why won't you answer the question then?"
"Because you won't answer it!"
"You answer first!"
"I asked you first!" I said loudly
"You did not!"
"I DID TOO!" (OK, that time I WAS shouting)
"YOU DID NOT! I SAID 'WHAT ABOUT YOU' AND YOU SAID-"
And I kissed him. Just like that. Mid sentence.
Then I pulled away. He looked really shocked. I guess I did too. And then I saw that Cyborg, Zoé, Starfire and Robin were in the doorway. They looked pretty shocked too. And I just ran out of there.
And the thing is… about the kiss…
Brief as it was, I enjoyed it. I mean REALLY enjoyed it. He's a good kisser.
But that's not the point. The point is I just confused things even further.
I hate hormones.

Starfire's BODO – I do not wish to hurt you. But I will if you read my BODO.
Day 8 – Morning
I enjoy having a boyfriend greatly. Because now that Robin is my boyfriend, he is even nicer than before!
Raven made me very upset this morning. She threatened to skin Ed and Spike and turn them into gloves! How terrible! I was extremely upset at this prospect, but Robin made her apologise.
I love Robin.
I really, really do, BODO. I can't help it. Not that I would want to. No, it is wonderful. I sat with him today and we played videogames, because it will be some time before his foot has healed.
I also wrote a letter to Blackfire. Here is what I wrote.
Dearest Sister Blackfire,
I hope you are well, sister, and that prison is not too dreadful. Earth is wonderful, as it always is. The other Titans are well and Robin and I are now 'dating'. I hope you too find someone to 'date' because it is delightful. Please write back and I hope that you are not too embittered by our last encounter.
Your loving sister
Starfire
I believe it is time to feed Spike and Ed. Perhaps Robin and I shall take them to the park later.
Afternoon
Oh, BODO, I am SO excited! Raven and Beastboy have experienced their first kiss together!
Robin, Zoé, Cyborg and myself were in the living room when we heard frightful shouts from the training room. We of course ran to investigate, in case someone had been hurt, but Raven and Beastboy were arguing terribly!
And then, while Beastboy was shouting at her, Raven kissed him! I daresay we were all surprised by this, but before anyone could move Raven had run out.
She does that an awful lot, you know. Some condition, perhaps?
Anyway, no one has seen her since, and Beastboy too has retired to his room. Robin told me not to 'sweat it', but I cannot just let them be. Perhaps we should encourage them to 'date'? I shall ask Robin's opinion of course.
I love Robin.

Beastboy's diary – Don't read it dude. Because I can make teeth as sharp as I want. And use them.
Day 8 – Morning
I had a dream about Raven last night.
Not THAT kind of dream, you pervert!
Can a diary be considered a pervert? I dunno. Anyway not the point.
It was really weird. We were in the living room and she was dressed in white, like she was in that weird mirror in her room. We were having a staring contest and I won and then Raven asked me if I wanted to play Autoracer. Only instead of cars we were racing Robin and Cyborg. Then Starfire and Zoé came in and told us not to hurt them.
OK, so everyone in the Tower appeared in the dream. Again, not the point.
I think Raven's in the training room. I should go talk to her. I really want to. Of course, I really want to kiss her, but that's not the point. I'm saying that a lot today, aren't I?
Should I go and talk to her?
Yeah… I probably should.
Afternoon
Dude… she kissed me.
YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Ahem. We were in the training room and we started yelling at each other and I was yelling at her and she kissed me.
I can't believe it.
Unfortunately she ran out straight after. Not good. Right? Urgh, girls are so totally confusing. Maybe I should go talk to her.
Oh, because that worked out SO well last time.
It was a really good kiss though.
Hmm. I could just try sending her more flowers. Or is that weird now? She doesn't like videogames… she likes poetry.
Yeah, I'll find her some poetry.
************************************************************************
Cyborg's Diary – It's PRIVATE for a reason. That reason is that I kick ass.
Day 8 – Morning
Zoé is coming over this afternoon. We're going… ICE-SKATING!!!!!
I don't know how to ice-skate! What the hell am I gonna do???
This is a nightmare. Seriously, I dunno what to do. Sure I could just tell her that I don't know how to ice-skate but I don't wanna look like a wuss.
I wonder if anyone else knows what to do.
No, I can handle this. It can't be that hard, right? I could just wing it.
Yeah… it won't be too hard.
Raven seems to be in a worse mood than usual. She threatened Ed and Spike. Starfire got totally upset. But Robin is totally in love with her, he made Raven apologise.
I'm happy for them. If only we could sort out the whole Raven/BB thing. It's like a soap opera but with less death and sex.
Afternoon
Raven totally kissed Beastboy! Zoé and I were about to go when we heard shouting, so we all ran to the training room and we saw Raven kiss BB.
Of course she ran out straight after.
They'll sort it out eventually. No, the most important part was the ice-skating.
We got to the rink and got our skates out. Zoé looked even hotter, cos she was wearing these gloves and had a scarf and her nose was going red…
Anyway, she can skate really well. But as soon as I got onto the ice I fell over. SO glad my circuits are all waterproofed. Anyway, after I fell over about 8 times Zoé got this look on her face, like she wanted to laugh and she asked,
"Cyborg, you can't skate, can you?"
"Um… no."
"You're such an idiot, why didn't you tell me? We could have gone bowling or something!" She said, rolling her eyes. I was really embarrassed.
Anyway, she helped me stand up and she started to show me how to skate. After a while it WAS sort of fun. And not just because she held my hand the whole time. No, I actually managed to get around the rink by myself at one point!
After that we went and got a hot chocolate and a hotdog. Zoé said she felt like she should be a vegetarian, since she works in a pet store but she loves meat too much. I told her she should NEVER become a vegetarian, because tofu sucks.
After that I walked her home. She has to work tomorrow but she promised that she'd come over to the tower when her shift was over.
Life is good. Still.

Robin's Diary – There are two ways this can go: either stop reading or I kick your ass from here to Hong Kong.
Day 8 – Morning
Today has been pretty cool so far. Starfire and I played loadsa videogames and she made me more cake. I think I've put on weight with all of those cakes.
But then she had to go and write a letter to her sister. I don't know why she's bothering.
She got pretty upset earlier, because Raven threatened to skin Ed and Spike. I made her say she was sorry and that she didn't mean it. It really makes me sad to see Starfire so upset. Makes me want to kiss her. So I did.
Go me.
Anyway, Zoé is coming over to take Cyborg ice-skating. I asked her to take photos but she wouldn't.
I think I might just have some more cake. It's very addictive.
Oh yeah, I was gonna talk to Raven wasn't I? I'll ask her later.
Afternoon
OK… Raven kissed Beastboy.
I know! It's so unlike her! He was yelling at her and she just kissed her. How weird. Well, it doesn't seem like either of them hated it. Until she ran out. But hey, what else does she do around here?
Maybe we should just try to get them together – it would certainly make this easier around here.
Yeah, I'll talk to Cyborg and Starfire later and see if we can sort something out. Because, frankly, it's hard enough being a Teen Titan without two of your members not being able to be in the same room as each other.
************************************************************************
Thank you for everyone who entered the competition! I just couldn't resist Cyborg ice-skating. Hee hee, that gives me funny mental pictures!
Thanks for the reviews, and I'm sorry it took me so long to update. I've had some stuff to sort out at home. Not good stuff either. And I lost my job. Big Bummer.
Never mind, please review!
Lotsa luv 'n' huggles
Katie
