Chapter Two: Strangeness

Okay, well, I'd like to thank all of my reviews, all three of them. I know it's not a lot, but hey, I'm a newb! ((Giggles)) okay, now to answer the reviews:

((Answers here))

When Raven finally lifted her head, a question popped in.

"What kind of pizza did you order?" she asked, softly.

"Cheese." Cyborg said, clearly glumly.

"Cheese? All right. That'll do." Beastboy said.

He didn't hesitate to grab a menu right before a waiter brought the pizza. The boys immediately grabbed pieces and left two pieces for the girls.

"Well, at least they left us some." Raven said.

Starfire nodded.

"I did not know it was possible for humans to contain so much food." Starfire said, ten minutes later after all the boys ate all their food, minus the two pieces they had left the girls.

"You also didn't know Robin, Cyborg and Beastboy before, either." Raven said as she got up and put her paper plate in the trash.

Beastboy somehow found himself out of his seat, and going after Raven. Five seconds later, he doubled back and grabbed his plate. Cyborg and Robin both gave him questioning looks.

"What? I'm just going to throw my plate away."

"Mm-hm." Robin said. "Think its possible that B.B. is starting to like Rae?" Cyborg asked, once Beastboy was out of hearing-range. They all considered this for a few moments, and then all simultaneously shook their heads.

"Rae and B.B? No way." Robin said as he shook his head viciously.

Beastboy ran hurriedly over to where the Goth girl was dumping her plate into the trash.

"Rae! Raven!"

Raven turned around, just as Beastboy was about to run into her, he purposely knocked himself to the ground. Raven sighed in relief. She was never fond of people touching her, accident or not.

"Heh. I didn't touch you. See?" he wiggled a little on the ground.

An amused smile crept up on Raven's face and she had to try to keep her laughter inside her. She cleared her throat and her smile disappeared, but not soon enough.

"Hey!" Beastboy cried.

"You smiled!"

Raven rolled her eyes, and stuck out her hand out to help him up. He hesitated for a few seconds, but then took her hand into his own and she pulled him up. Once up, Beastboy dumped his plate into the trash as the other Titans came up and dumped their food.

"Glorious! Beastboy, Raven, have you finally begun the Earth concept of dating?" Starfire asked, in her normal innocent tone.

Raven gave her a confused look, and then realized her hand was still in his. Both yanked their hands away and blushed. Raven immediately pulled her hood up, however, to block her blush.

"Stop blushing, B.B. you look like a Christmas tree." Cyborg said.

Beastboy glared at his robotic friend, but stayed silent as Raven brushed past, and gracefully lifted into the air and flew to the tower.

"Beastboy, go see if Raven actually wants to eat breakfast today." Robin said, the next morning.

"Me? Why me?"

"Because your closer to the door."

I'm no closer than Starfire. Beastboy thought.

But he paused the game he was playing, got off of the couch and started to go toward the door.

"This is the second time I'm disrupting her, y'know. I am now one step from death!"

"Just shut up and go get Rae." Cyborg said as he unpaused the game while Beastboy wasn't looking.

Beastboy sighed heavily as he stood outside Raven's door. He balled his hand into a fist, and put it up to the door. He hesitated and then knocked, softly, silently praying that she didn't hear.

Unfortunately, she did. She opened the door, just enough so you could see her face.

"What?" Raven asked. Suddenly, Beastboy felt his mind go blank and his throat go dry.

Think, B.B. think! You came here for a reason...right?

Raven sighed.

Oh! I remember now! Beastboy thought.

"You comin' down to get breakfast?" he asked, his voice cracking slightly.

"Um, I'm not really that hungry..." she said, softly.

"Your never hungry Rae; what, are you on a fast?" Raven opened her door wider. She crossed her arms. "If I was, I wouldn't have had pizza yesterday, now, would I?"

Beastboy inwardly slapped himself. "Heh. Yeah. But your still eating breakfast." He grabbed her wrist. "Rather you want to or not."

Raven gasped at his forcefulness, but didn't pull her arm back. At least for a few moments, then she yanked her hand out of his grip.

"That is the second time you've touched me, don't push it." She said, in her normal monotone voice.

"Um, yeah. So you coming to breakfast?"

Raven sighed and brushed past him, and into the living room.

"I guess that's a yes. Hey, Raven, wait up!" Beastboy called as he jogged to catch up with the Goth girl.

"Glorious, Raven! It is so nice to know that you are joining us in the breaking of the fast!" Starfire cried as soon as she saw Raven walk into the living room. Raven looked at her, but didn't say anything as she got a teapot out, just as Beastboy walked into the room.

"Raven said she wasn't hungry, but came out anyways." He said as his eyes drifted to her.

She's so... Beastboy shook his head, dismissing the thought before it was even finished. I don't like her like that...do I?

"Yo! B.B.! Did you hear me?" Cyborg asked, waving his hand in front of Beastboy's face, yanking him out of his thoughts. "Huh? What?"

"I asked if you were up for a video game. You okay, man?"

"Yeah, fine. Wait. Did you say 'video game'? Sweet! I call first player!" Beastboy said as he hopped over the couch and grabbed a game controller.

((A/N: Okay, so my story isn't that good, or good at all but it WILL get better ... I hope. Thanks once again to my reviewers who made me feel like I wasn't being ignored! Okay, bye – bye!))
