Chapter Nine :: Fly On The Wall

Cyborg peeked his head out of his bedroom door. He looked both ways down the hallway to make sure everything was clear. He had seen Robin go into Raven's room and decided it was time he talked to the other titans about what was happening. Deciding things were good and quiet, he closed his bedroom door and looked over at Star and BB holding each other's hands on his bed.

"Ok guys, have you noticed that Robin and Raven have been acting a little... off lately?" Cyborg asked his friends.

"Dude, what are you talking about?" BB asked, slightly confused as to why Cyborg wanted to have this silly little meeting.

"You haven't noticed how weird they've been acting? All their hidden meetings, how close they've seemed to be the past week? They've acted really weird around each other." Cyborg tried to explain to his changeling friend. "You haven't noticed?"

"Now that you mention it, Robin has been looking at Raven differently. He looks at her a lot more often and seems to have a softness to him that he did not have before" Starfire spoke up.

"So what do you think is going on then?" BB asked.

"I think, that they are getting close... really close... like... dating close" Cyborg said with a wink.

"Dating?" BB laughed, "Puu-lee-zzee! Robin and the Ice Queen? Never could happen!"

Cyborg rolled his eyes. "It could happen, and if you look at them, you'd see how possible it really is!"

They were quiet for a few moments.

"Robin and Raven... I can't believe it." BB broke the silence.

"What can we do to find out if our friends are a.. couple?" Starfire asked the two boys.

"I think we should just ask them!" BB said confidently.

"No good. I've already tried to corner Robin alone and ask him about it, but he always makes up some excuse so that he doesn't have to be alone in a room with me to talk" Cyborg replied.

"And now that it is brought up, Raven always finds a way to change the conversation topic when Robin's name is mentioned" Starfire added thoughtfully.

"Well then, it looks like it's up to me!" BB said with a smile on his face.

"Dude! What are you rambling about?" Cyborg asked the changeling with a puzzled look on his face.

"Remember me? Beast Boy?" He said before turning himself into a fly.

"Oh! I got you, they would never suspect you were around!" Cyborg smiled.

"No friends! It is wrong to spy on them if they are needing to be alone together!" Starfire seemed against the idea.

"Yeah BB, what if you see something you really wish you hadn't?" Cyborg asked the fly as it changed back into the familiar form of Beast Boy.

"Yeah... that wouldn't be cool..." BB thought.

"Although, it might be the only way to discover if something is going on if they wish to not tell us themselves" Starfire added.

They debated for another half hour before agreeing that Beast Boy should do it. They were going to give Robin and Raven a reason to be alone. They decided they would tell the couple that Starfire and Beast Boy were going to a movie and that Cyborg would be out buying new parts for the T-car. Then BB would turn into a fly once outside and fly back into the tower through his bedroom window, which he would leave open. That way he could spy on the other two titans while Star and Cyborg would wait for him at the pizza place across the water. After he had some good juicy gossip worthy info, he would fly over and tell them what he had seen.

They waited for the afternoon to come closer, trying their hardest not to let Robin and Raven get suspicious. Then, at 5:30pm, they sprung their plan into action.

The door to the television room hissed open. Raven was on the couch reading her book, and Robin was sitting in front of the television playing Metal Gear Solid: The Twin Snakes on the game console. Cyborg had decided he was going to leave first.

"Bye guys, see you later!" He yelled out.

"Where you off to Cy?" Robin asked, pausing his game to turn around. Raven looked over her book for a moment at Cyborg before going back to the paragraph she was working on.

"Gotta get some parts for the T-car. I'm going to put in a satellite radio and re-wire the headlights" He said trying his best to make it not sound rehearsed.

"Ok, have fun." Robin said and turned around to go back to his game.

Cyborg left and went over to the mainland to wait for Starfire at the pizza cafe. Ten till six, Starfire and BB came out holding hands.

"Well, we have dinner reservations in town so we'll see you two later tonight" Beast Boy said at towards Raven and Robin.

"Have fun you two" Robin called over his shoulder, not taking his eyes off the boss battle he was in.

"Bye guys" Raven said in her typical monotone voice over her book as she turned the page.

Beast Boy and Starfire went down the elevator and once outside the tower BB told her that he would be to the cafe to meet with her and Cyborg as soon as he got some dirt. With that he turned into a fly and flew into his bedroom window as Star flew over the bay towards the cafe.

Getting inside the tower wasn't hard, it was picking a spot to sit in while he waited. He got into the television area via the ventilation system and picked a spot on the edge of a photo frame. The first few minutes were dull. They hadn't moved an inch since the other titans had left. Finally Raven got up to get herself a cup of tea and to make Robin some cocoa. When she was done she went and sat next to Robin and gave him his cocoa and watched him play his game for another 10 minutes.

"Yes!" Robin was pleased to have beaten the game. He put his arm around Raven and turned the TV to a channel with a sappy movie playing. Raven cuddled herself against him and they watched 20 minutes or so of the movie before they grew bored of it and resorted to making out on the sofa.

'Whoa. So there is something going on!' BB thought to himself.

Robin and Raven got up and walked to Robin's bedroom. With the rest of the team out, they didn't have to spend time in her room for a change. Beast Boy flew in unnoticed behind them and settled himself on one of the fan blades. Robin went over and opened up his window. 'Yes! A way out if things get messy!' BB was hopeful now. He could get what he needed and not have to worry about seeing anything he didn't want to.

The next half hour was pretty dull and in BB's eyes, pretty sappy. Just a lot of talking and "I love you's" being thrown about. They were holding hands, staring into each other's eyes, lying in each other's arms. Robin would kiss her hand from time to time. Just plan lovey-dovey stuff that made Beast Boy want to throw up.

Raven began to get cold and so Robin threw a blanket over them. They began to kiss again and clothes slowly were dragged out from under the covers and thrown across the bedroom. Beast Boy was getting nervous, but at the same time was kind of intrigued about what was happening. Robin began to kiss his way down Raven's neck and chest and had soon disappeared under the covers entirely. Beast Boy could tell his head was around Raven's hip area but didn't exactly know why. Raven let out a moan as Robin's tongue played upon a certain area between her legs. Beast Boy had had enough. He flew his way out the window and towards the pizza place. He arrived to find an anxious looking Starfire and Cyborg sitting in front of a large un-touched tofu pizza. They got it for BB as a thank you. Beast Boy sat himself on his chair and transformed into his usual appearance to the surprise of his friends. He sat there wide-eyed, nervous, and sweating.

"So BB, What's going on? They a couple or what?" Cyborg asked impatiently.

"Oh yeah" BB replied, pulling his collar out to let some of the warmth escape that was causing him to sweat, "They are most defiantly a couple."
