I understand that the titans are probably too young to get married but if they were too old they wouldn't be the teen titans anymore so just bare with me. All you BBTerra lovers are going to probably hate me for this chapter. On with the chapter.
Chapter 3:
It had been two days since Drake temporarily moved in. He was pretty much used to living in the tower. He and Terra spent a lot of time together getting to be reacquainted with each other after all these years. Sadly Terra was spending less and less time with Beastboy so he didn't find much chance to pop the big question. Today was the same, Terra and Drake were in their room talking, Beastboy was in his room thinking of a time he could propose, Robin and Starfire were talking about something, Raven was on the top of the tower in deep meditation, and Cyborg was repairing the T-Car.
"So how did you first meet the titans?" asked Drake.
"Well, basically I was fighting a giant scorpion (I forgot what it was) and the titans came to help me out... but of course I didn't need it. I quickly dispensed with the scorpion and went up to the titans and they convinced me to stay with them for a little bit. That's pretty much how I met them." Terra replied.
"Beastboy told me that you got trapped in a rock shell... I have to know how you got out of that one." Drake said with a small chuckle.
"Well I was stuck in that for a while lying unconsciously but one day I just awoke in the shell and used my powers to get out. Did I mention I have complete control over my powers yet?"
"I kind of figured it out when you stopped that robber yesterday. My powers have changed a little. I found out about a few years ago that I was able to move anything and not just rock. Unfortunately it is much harder to move a car than an equally large boulder so I usually stick to rocks. Speaking of rocks..." Drake stopped as a pillow suddenly flew up and hit Terra on the head. "You're it." He said as he jumped out the window onto a rock that was waiting for him.
"No fair." Terra cried as she also jumped out the window and chased Drake who was headed out over the water. While they were both over the water Drake's hands glowed yellow and several pillars of rock came out of the water and almost hit Terra.
"I see you've learned some new tricks... but so have I." Terra said as the rock Drake was flying on crumbled under his feet. As Drake fell, his hands glowed white and he suddenly floated in midair.
"Like I said, new powers." Drake was panting after about a minute of staying in the air because the strain on his body was two great. Drake's hands glowed yellow and a pillar of rock came out from under him and he stood on it to catch his breath. Terra took this chance to launch many pebbles at him. He skillfully dodged each one. No they weren't playing tag anymore. They were now testing each other's power and limitations. Terra assaulted Drake with larger rocks which he dodged my merely raising his hand up and stopping them. Drake jumped of the pillar and onto a floating rock. He flew high into the air. Terra followed but before she reached him she sent pieces of the rock she was standing on at him. Drake continued to dodge them with a wave of his right hand. Drake then flew back towards the tower but before he got there Terra made a pillar of rock come up in front of him. Drake hit in and fell into the water. Terra searched frantically for him.
Where is he, where is he, where is he?
She flew down to the water and jumped in to look for him. And there he was underwater with his eyes closed. Terra made a rock from the ocean floor come up and carry him to the shore of the tower where she set him down. Terra stated praying.
Please be okay, please be okay.
Terra pushed on Drake's chest and some water came out of his mouth. Terra knew what she had to do and she blushed that she was the one who had to do it. She had to perform CPR. She blushed like a tomato before she nervously put her lips against his. Her face was now completely red. Sir passed from her mouth to his and then she pushed on his chest again but he still wasn't breathing... so she had to do it again. She put her lips against his but this time while she was still doing it Beastboy looked out his window and thought they were kissing. Beastboy stared at them for a minute and then closed turned around and started yelling. Terra pushed on his chest again and this time he coughed and opened his eyes. There was a small lump on his head.
"Uh... what happened?" Drake asked.
"Well uh... you were unconscious and then I... uh... had to perform CPR." Terra said as red as the sun.
Beastboy was in his room tearing up everything in his bear form.
Stupid Drake, this is all his fault.
Beastboy looked out his window and saw that Drake and Terra weren't there anymore.
I guess I won't be needing this thing anymore.
Beastboy looked at the ring in his hand and than closed his fist. He took the engagement ring and chucked it out the window. Luckily it didn't land in the water but it landed between to large boulders that hopefully wouldn't release the ring to the water. Beastboy turned into a bird and flew out the window and went into the city to think.
Drake and Terra walked into the tower and they were still wet.
"What happened to you guys? Did you go swimming?" asked Robin.
"Something like that... Well, I'm going to go take a shower." Terra said as she ran to the bathroom. Drake went to their room to change. He didn't need to take a shower. He sat on his bed and thought about Terra for about ten minutes before he started to change. While he was changing Terra walked in and gasped. Luckily Drake wasn't naked but all he had on were his boxers. Terra stared at his muscular body before he said.
"Uh... Terra, I do need to change." Terra got back into reality and walked out the door and leaned against the wall still thinking about what she just saw. In a minute Drake walked out fully dressed.
"Let's just forget about that." Drake said with a chuckle.
It was four thirty now and Drake and Terra hadn't eaten so they went out for pizza. Beastboy was wondering around town miserably wondering what he should do next. He walked by other couples which only made him think about Drake and Terra even more.
I should just face it. I'll never find true love.
Beastboy thought that he was meant to be with Terra but now he was having second thought. Just thinking about Drake and Terra made him seethe with sadness and anger mixed together. He needed to blow of some steam so he found a common thief stealing from and old lady and took out his frustration all on him. (The poor guy, never saw the dinosaur mouth coming) Beastboy felt hungry so take a guess where he wanted to go. If you guessed the pizza place you are... correct. As he walked to the pizza place he saw Drake and Terra walk through the door together. (The poor Beastboy, he never saw it coming either) Beastboy walked through an alley all by his lonesome and even saw cat couples. Beastboy yearned for that. He thought he had it but now he thought he didn't. Beastboy was now lonely although he had many friends. He needed someone to love and for someone to love him back. He needed someone who he could spend the rest of his life with. He needed someone to be there for him when his other friends are too caught up in there own things. What he needed was a soul mate.
When Beastboy returned to the tower Drake and Terra weren't there. He went straight to his room and sat on his bed. Drake and Terra came in about five minutes after Beastboy. Terra was laughing at a joke that Drake had just told her.
"I guess you guys had a good time." Raven said looking up from her book.
"Terra I think you need to talk to BB. He seemed a little down when he walked in." Cyborg said as he passed the computer in his video game. At that moment Beastboy walked in to the room. He had a big frown on his face.
"Hey Beastboy, Cyborg said I should talk to you. Is something wrong?" she asked him. Beastboy just turned around and left. Terra followed him.
"Beastboy, what's wrong?" she asked him when he saw him in the hallway.
"Wrong, nothing's wrong." Beastboy said with a fake smile on his face.
"Are you sure cause you seemed pretty down when you walked in. Are you mad at me or something?"
"No Terra." Terra looked into Beastboy's eyes and knew something was wrong.
"Well how about you and me go have dinner somewhere tonight. What do you say?"
"I'm busy." Beastboy said as he turned and continued walking.
"Busy doing what?"
"Stuff."
"What stuff?"
"I just have some stuff to do. Maybe tomorrow or something." Beastboy said.
"Okay then tomorrow it is okay?" Terra asked. Beastboy sighed but then nodded.
"Sure Terra." He said before he went back to his room. When he was gone Terra frowned.
Terra knew there was something seriously wrong. Beastboy had barely talked to her the whole day. She started to think about how she told Beastboy that she was in love with Drake a long time ago. Then she thought about how the feelings she had for Drake were slowly developing and getting bigger. She did still like Beastboy but she didn't know if it was definite anymore. All the time she was now spending with Drake was making her drift away from Beastboy. Terra knew that now she had been a new person from the moment she saw Drake again. Something inside her yearned for what they once had with each other. As little kids they were in love. Their parents had always thought it was meant to be. They were so perfect for each other... but Beastboy was perfect for Terra as well. They shared their good times and bad times.
Terra walked to her room and went to her bed. She was now thinking if she meant what she said to Drake when she told her that she still loved him. Maybe she answered that way so it wouldn't hurt his feelings. Maybe it wasn't true. Maybe it was just a friendly thing but then Terra remembered the day they met and the day they fell in love. He remembered there first kiss. Well it was a kiss on the cheek but whatever. Terra remembered when she performed CPR. When she put his lips against his she did not just feel embarrassed. In a sense she treated it as a kiss and not a life saving operation. Now Terra had to admit the truth: She was still deeply in love with Drake.
