Chapter 2

Pizza, games and strangers in the rain

"Beast Boy what do you think of this dress?" asked Starfire as she and Beast Boy looked at some bridal magazines. Beast boy was clearly bored out his mind but tried to not it show.

"I like it" Beast Boy smiled at her as he tried to hold back a yawn, making Starfire giggle and kiss him on the cheek.

"Raven why don't you help Star pick a dress?" Beast Boy asked as he stretched and yawned loudly.

"I don't do dresses" Raven replied coldly as she continued to read her book.

"Well you should we're picking your bridesmaid dress" laughed Beast Boy as he ducked under a chair that Raven threw at him.

"Beast Boy speaks the truth friend Raven" giggled Starfire as she turned the page in her magazine. This just made Raven become even more infuriated at the giggling couple.

She was too busy reading her book, and being angry witht Beast Boy and Starfire, that she didn't notice Onyx sneak back into the room via the front door.

"Shhhh" Onyx whispered over to Beast Boy and Starfire as he smiled and started to sneak up behind Raven. Starfire tried to suppress a giggle as she watched Onyx creep even closer to Raven.

"I know your there Onyx" Raven said in her usual monotone as she continued reading her book.

"How did you…?" Onyx gasped in shock as he dropped his head in defeat and sighed.

"Your breath smells like garlic pizza" Raven replied as she turned a page in her book and smiled.

"Very funny" smiled Onyx as he leapt over onto the couch and looked at Raven.

"How did you get past Cyborg wasn't he outside your door?" Raven asked as she looked up from her book at Onyx and raised an eyebrow.

"Jumped out the window and came back in through the front door" Onyx smiled back as he grabbed the TV control and started flicking through the channels.

"That was an over 30 ft drop how did you survive?" Raven asked in astonishment as she closed her book and stared at Onyx.

"Unbreakable bones remember" Onyx replied as he stopped at a horror movie and smiled.

"I didn't know you liked horror?" Raven asked as she turned and starting watching the movie.

"I don't but you looked really bored reading that book" Onyx said as he stood up and smiled at Raven. Raven smiled back and turned her attention back to the move.

I'm so in there thought Onyx as he looked at the mysterious girl watching the movie.

"Yo BB wanna go get some pizza?" Onyx called over to Beast Boy as he stretched and walked over to him and Starfire.

"Beast Boy cannot go get pizza he must help plan our wedding " Starfire replied before Beast Boy could even think of saying yes.

"Oh please let him come Starfire I'll do anything you want just let him come out and play please" Onyx pleaded as he dropped to the floor and grabbed her leg and pretended to cry.

"Yeah Star come on don't make me do the face you know you can't resist the face" Beast Boy said as he joined Onyx on the floor and also pretended to cry.

"Oh very well you may go" Starfire giggled as she looked down at both Onyx and Beast Boy.

"YES" cheered Onyx and Beast Boy together as they leapt up and high-fived each other.

"You wanna come with us Star?" asked Beast Boy as he straightened himself up and looked at his future wife.

"No I shall stay here and look at the pretty dresses" smiled Starfire as she got up and kissed Beast Boy.

"What about you Raven you wanna come to?" Onyx yelled over to Raven as hepretended to be sick atthe sight of Starfire and Beast Boy kissing.

"I'm not that hungry so I'll pass" Raven replied as she continued to watch the movie, still smiling at Beast Boy's and Onyx's previous antics.

"Then it's settled lets roll BB" Onyx said as he put on his coat and headed for the door.

"Aww man it's totally raining" moaned Beast Boy as he looked out the window and stared at the storm raging outside.

"So a little rain won't hurt you" smiled Onyx as he walked back into the room and looked over at Beast Boy.

"Dude it'll totally ruin my hair" Beast Boy yelled back, making both Starfire and Raven giggle.

"Dude please tell me that was a joke?" Onyx asked as he tried to contain his laughter.

"I'm being serious" pouted Beast boy as he folded his arms and closed his eyes. Onyx burst into laughter and started to roll about on the floor.

"Fine I'll take care of this" panted Onyx as he stood back and took deep breaths, trying to calm himself down.

"Yo Tin man" Onyx yelled as he braced himself in the middle of the room. Cyborg came running into the room like a man possessed.

"How did you……It doesn't matter now where is my CD?" growled Cyborg as he lifted Onyx to his face and glared at him.

"Dude it's totally in your car I swear" Onyx cried as he struggled in Cyborg's grip.

"he's telling the truth Cyborg" Raven said as she turned and looked at the enraged teen.

"You sure?" asked Cyborg as he looked over at Raven, anger still burning in his eye's but not as brightly.

"Positive" Raven replied in her monotone as she turned back round and continued to watch her movie.

"It had better be" Cyborg growled quietly as he let go of Onyx, dropping the teen back down onto the ground.

"So anyway dude you wanna go get some pizza and hang at the arcade?" Onyx asked as he picked himself back up and rubbed his lower back.

"Hell yeah" cried Cyborg as his angry completely disappeared at the thought of his three things, pizza, video games and whooping Beast Boy's and Onyx's butts at Extreme Mega Fighter 3.

"Wohooo" cheered Onyx as he jumped up in air and high-fived Beast Boy and Cyborg.

"Let's ride" Cyborg said as he walked towards the garage and his 'baby'.

"Dude can I drive?" Beast Boy asked as he followed Cyborg to the garage. Cyborg instantly stopped in his tracks and turned his arm into his Sonic Cannon again.

"Dude I was only kidding" smiled Beast Boy as he hid behind Onyx, who had once again burst into laughter at the terrified changeling.

"Don't even joke like that" Cyborg said as he changed his arm back and continued walking towards his 'baby'. Onyx meanwhile walked back over to Raven and patted her on the shoulder.

"Thanks I owe you one" Onyx whispered as he smiled and ran after Beast Boy and Cyborg yelling, "Hey guys wait for me". Raven just smiled gently to herself and continued to watch her movie.

"Have fun and be safe" Starfire yelled to them as she stopped reading her magazine and floated over to Raven and sat beside her.

"Dude this is gonna be sweet" Beast boy cheered as he jumped into the T car.

"Yeah we finally managed to rip you away from Starfire" replied Onyx as he sat next to Beast boy.

"Now who wants to get some pizza?" Cyborg cheered as he turned the key in the ignition making the T car roar into life.

"Dude punch it" screamed Onyx as he grabbed Beast boy and rubbed the changelings hair. With that Cyborg slammed his foot into the accelerator and the T car flew out of the garage like a rocket.

"Wohoooo" cheered the three boys as the car sped into the city.

"Amm Raven please forgive me for asking but are you ok?" Starfire asked as she watched the movie with her friend.

"I'm fine Starfire" Raven replied, her voice was completely void of emotion. But deep down her heart broke, she knew exactly what Starfire was talking about.

"I sense that is a lie" Starfire replied as she turned off the TV and looked at Raven.

"Hey I was watching that" Raven growled angrily as she turned and looked at Starfire, her anger was taken away whenever she looked into her friend's eyes. They where full of tears and worry.

"Please tell what is wrong, I am worried about you?" Starfire pleaded to raven, her emerald eyes begging for answers.

"There is nothing wrong with me Starfire" Raven replied softly as he stood up and headed for her room.

"It's 'him' isn't it?" Starfire asked as she watched her friend walking away. Raven stopped walking and looked down at the floor, tears began to form in her eyes.

"I have heard you crying at night, I just want to help you" Starfire said as she floated over to Raven.

"I miss him Star, I miss him so much" Raven whispered as her tears hit the floor and she clutched Robin's mask tight in her hand.

"I know but as my fiancé once said he will never truly be gone as long as we remember him" Starfire smiled as she put her hand on Raven's shoulder, trying to comfort her weeping friend.

"I need to be alone now Starfire" Raven said quietly as he shrugged off Starfire's hand and continued walking to her room.

"Be safe my friend" Starfire whispered as she wiped a tear and floated back over to the couch.

"Thank you for being there Star" Raven smiled softly as she wiped away her tears and walked into her room, closing the door behind her.

"Alright men what shall we do first?" asked Onyx as he ran into the pizza parlour/arcade.

"Pizza" cheered Beast Boy as he sprinted towards the restaurant.

"Arcade" said Cyborg as he ran over to the video games. Both the teens then stopped and glared at each other.

"Dude we're having pizza first" yelled Beast Boy as he walked over to Cyborg.

"No way man we're playing some games first then we eat" screamed Cyborg as he stomped over to Beast Boy.

"Pizza"

"Games"

"PIZZA"
"GAMES"

"Amigos please there is only one way to settle an argument as complicated as this….rock scissors paper, winner decides" said Onyx as he leapt in between the two teens and separated them.

"Fine" snorted Cyborg as he glared at Beast Boy.

"Yeah fine" snorted Beast Boy as he stuck his tongue out at Cyborg.

"Ok ready?" asked Onyx as he put his hand behind his back.

"Rock"

"Scissors"

"Paper"

"Aww man I don't believe it" wailed Cyborg as he revealed he had paper.

"Dude I can't believe it" moaned Beast Boy as he also revealed paper.

"Sorry guys but looks like I win" cheered Onyx as he revealed scissors and jumped up and down.

"Fine what do wanna do Onyx?" asked Cyborg as he folded his arms and looked at the still celebrating Onyx.

"I say, no decree that we send Beast Boy for Pizza while me and you slug it out in Extreme Mega Fighter 3" Onyx finally said as he stopped cheering and cleared his throat.

"Sweet" cheered Beast Boy as he ran to the Pizza parlour.

"Booya" yelled Cyborg as he ran over to the Arcade.

"BB remember lot's of meat" Onyx yelled over to Beast Boy as he ran after Cyborg.

""Dude Ii'm not eating meat" Beast Boy yelled back, but it was no good Onyx and Cyborg had disappeared from sight, "Aww man why can't I ever pick the pizza topping"

Starfire was busy watching the Little Mermaid, and giggling to herself, whenever she heard someone ring the doorbell. Starfire ignored it and continued watching her favourite movie, when a few minutes later she heard the bell again. She sighed, paused her film and floated off towards the front door.

"I am coming please do not leave" Starfire yelled as she heard the bell ring again.

"May I help you?" Starfire asked cheerfully as she opened the door and saw a stranger standing in the rain.

"Starfire…..?" asked the stranger as he looked at her and stepped into the light.
