Robin wasn't sure he heard them right. "You did what?" Raven grinned, crossing her arms over her chest. She was sitting on the couch with Starfire while the guys paced in front of them. "We got a tattoo." Beast Boy fainted then was up faster than sound could travel. "How? Why? When? Where?"
Raven laughed. "Umm, you know how, why, because I wanted to do something outrageous, when, well, after you left to go home, and where, on my shoulder." Beast Boy slapped a hand over his face and let it drop slowly. "I still can't believe this. This is just weird."
Cyborg tried not to laugh. "You said Starfire got one too?" Starfire slowly nodded, watching Robin. He watched her, rubbing the back of his neck. "I'm afraid to ask but where did you get one?" She licked her busted bottom lip, and mumbled, "On my hip."
Robin blinked. Hip? On her hip? Starfire got a tattoo on her hip? Oh man, this is so bizarre. He was so shocked he didn't even say anything. Starfire groaned inwardly. This was such a bad idea. Now, Robin was mad at her.
Raven grinned, watching Beast Boy pace. He stopped in front of them, slamming a fist down in his palm. "That's it young ladies! You are both grounded!" Everything was quite for a minute before Raven and Cyborg cracked up. Starfire looked confused. "What is 'grounded'?"
Raven wiped a tear from her eye. "It means that we are banned from certain things." Starfire nodded, but she looked totally miserable. Robin sighed, and sat next to her. She watched him, her green eyes worried. "Robin, are you mad at me? I didn't even know what a 'tattoo' was until it was over and done with. I am so very sorry."
He smiled. "No, Star, I'm not mad, just...surprised, that's all." She instantly perked up. "Oh, joy! You are not angry with me!" She hugged him, making him blush. Beast Boy grinned, then glanced at Raven. He pointed at her, but could gather up enough anger to make his words mean. "You are in big trouble, missy!" She hid a grin.
Cyborg was so amused. This was better than Jerry Springer any day. He wished Caitlin were here to see this.
Defeated, Beast Boy sat down beside her. "What did you get?" She grinned. "You have to wait till tomorrow before you can see it." He sighed, turning his head so he could watch her. "I can't believe you did this." She smiled, raising her eyebrows. "Why can't you believe it?" He racked his brain for a good answer. "Because before you would have never done anything like this."
She sighed, rubbing her sore ribs. "Why do you think I did it?" He blinked, at loss for words. It made sense, Raven doing this because she had never had the chance to do it before.
But his mind wouldn't let it go. "What does it look like?" She laughed. "You'll see it tomorrow, Beast Boy." He morphed in to a puppy and gave her puppy eyes, jumping in her lap. Her lips twitched. "No, Beast Boy, not until tomorrow." His puppy eyes narrowed, and she laughed.
Jumping off her lap, he morphed back, glaring. "Fine, then. See if I care. It's late and I'm going to bed so...see ya." She watched him leave, grinning. She turned to Starfire, saying, "He is so immature." Starfire smiled, rubbing a hand over her cast. "I think I will retire to my room." She stood up, Robin's eyes following every move she made. "Good night." When she disappeared into the dark hallway, Raven glared at Robin.
He blinked, confused. "What did I do?" She was still glaring when she said, "Why don't you just tell her already? It is so obvious you love her." This time he glared. "I don't love her, just like her." Raven laughed.
Amused, Cyborg sat down in an adjacent chair, grinning at the soon-to- be battle. Narrowing his eyes, he said, "You know the same goes for you. It is painfully obvious you love Beast Boy, so why don't you tell him instead of prying in other peoples' love life?"
Not even paying attention to what he said about Beast Boy, she jumped up, pointing at him. Her ribs hurt but she caught him red handed. "Ah ha! You admit you have a love life. Ha ha! I knew it! No matter how much you deny it, I can see it in your eyes-mask, I mean...I can just tell!"
Cyborg laughed, thankful that he was being ignored. Robin raised an eyebrow. "No...I...uh...I don't have a love life, so ha, there is nothing to...ah...say." Knowing he made no sense once so ever, he grinned sheepishly. "It's getting late. I'm going go to bed now." Raven grinned evilly, watching him leave.
"Oh yeah, I got him. Oh yeah, hey...he said I love Beast Boy." Her grin faded, replaced by a scowl. She turned to the door, yelling, "Hey, get back her you wimp!" She sighed, crossing her arms over her chest. "Well, fine then. Be that way. But, I got you, I got you."
Clearing his throat, Cyborg walked passed her, patting her shoulder. "You'll get 'em tomorrow." She blinked when she was all alone. "Sense when was Cyborg in here?" She shrugged. "Oh well." Yawning, she headed for the door, vanishing into the dark hall.
A muffled curse could be heard. "Damn, Beast Boy's right. This hallway does need light." She rubbed her throbbing toe, limping to her door.
