Ok! Chapter two! This one has BB/Rae in it so enjoy!
Starfire heard the soft hiss of her door opening. She didn't look up at who had come in, for she already knew.
"Yes Robin?" she asked. Robin sat down next to her where she was on her bed.
"Is something wrong Star?" he asked.
"Robin," she began "You are my best friend. Please promise me you won't trick us again" she said quietly. She still did not look at him.
"I already said I wouldn't Starfire" he said gently.
"I know but promise me"
"I promise" Robin replied sternly. It was then that Starfire looked at him and smiled. Robin was happy. He had missed her smile all day. She was the only person that could genuinely make him feel at ease. He smiled back at her and put a hand on her shoulder. "So would you tell me how you travel faster than light again?" Starfire's smile broadened.
"Oh but of course!"
"Hey Raven wanna play Smash Brothers Melee with me!?" Beastboy called from the couch.
"No." she did not look up from the book she was reading.
"You're always reading! Come on!" he coaxed.
"If I wanted to play I would have asked myself" she replied flatly, her face masked by the book in her hands. Beastboy grabbed some popcorn from a bowl next to him. He started to stuff it in his mouth but then looked at Raven and back to the popcorn in his hand. With no further hesitation he chucked it at her. The pieces were frozen in a black haze a few inches from her head. Raven lowered the book and glared at him.
"I....uh....it was...a joke?" Beastboy ventured.
"Not a good one."
"You never think my jokes are funny!"
"I wonder why" The popcorn floated back over to him and landed back in the bowl.
"I...uh...guess I'll play that game now he he" Raven said nothing, but lifted the book back up and resumed reading.
"Melee huh?" Cyborg entered the living room.
"where have you been?" Beastboy asked, eyes glued to the screen. Cyborg sat down next to him and picked up another controller.
"In the garage"
"Cool"
"So is it time for me to kick your butt?" Cyborg teased. Beastboy tore his eyes away from the fighting characters on the TV and grinned.
"No way! You're the one who's going down!" With that they began the battle. Raven sighed and shook her head behind the book. She soon found herself, however, watching them occasionally. When she caught herself watching, she scolded herself. 'Why would I want to watch a stupid game?' Beastboy noticed her watching.
"Sure you don't want to play Rae?"
"Very sure" Raven said, quickly focusing her gaze back to the pages. Beastboy shrugged his shoulders and went back to hurriedly punching buttons. Raven slowly began to realize that it wasn't the game she was watching. It was Beastboy. 'How totally weird.' she thought. 'Why would I care about him? Well only one way to fix this watching problem' She shut the book and rose.
"Where you headed Raven?" Cyborg asked.
"Yeah where?" Beastboy questioned also.
"My room. Why so curious?" She raised an eyebrow at the two.
"Um...uh..." Beastboy stuttered while Cyborg shrugged.
"Never mind" Raven said and strode out of the living room.
