Chapter 4
Disclaimer: Not mine. Don't sue.
A/N: this one isn't just about one person because of what is supposed to happen. And this chapter may be horrible and seem rushed or something like that, but I had the closet thing to an emotional breakdown that a 7th grader can have and so I want to get another chapter out now incase it gets worse later and I can't think straight. Now I'm just talking about this like it's a disease or something. Better hurry up then.
The next couple days at school were pretty normal, but then the weirdest thing of all weirds happened.
It was about half way through 4° when Mrs. Lehr was having them start a major project that would be about ¼ of their grade for their first 9 weeks of school Mrs. Lehr called out "Guys!" so Robin turned to Raven and so it was set, she was his partner, no matter how much she hated him. This project was huge and it meant that the partners would have to meet after school, starting that day. But the weird thing that happened was that Raven was actually hoping that Robin would pick her. As soon as she realized this a shiver went down her spine and she shook the thought out of her head hoping it would never come back again.
"Your house or mine?" Robin asked breaking her out of her trance
"Yours." They both said at the same time.
"Well, I think that we should go to your house because Terra and her partner would be working at my house so we wouldn't have anything to use except my laptop." Raven said
"So, I've got a younger sister who's in 5th grade this year." Robin replied
"How about the library?" Raven asked
"Uh, they don't let me in the library any more since my cell phone went off a year ago when I was in there." Robin said, "How about we just go from one person's house to the others every other day."
"That might work, but only if we go to your house first." Raven said
"Deal." Robin replied who was just happy that he'd get a chance to go over there and try to learn something more about her.
"So what are we supposed to be doing this project on?" Raven asked
"I don't know, I don't pay attention in class either." Robin said
"Terra, what are we doing this project on?" Raven asked
"We're supposed to be doing it on any country whose main language is Spanish. Then everything else is on the rubrics that Mrs. Lehr's passing out." Terra said
"Thanks." Raven replied
"Well, that was efficient." Robin said
"Of course." Raven replied dryly.
"Do you ever use anything but sarcasm?" Robin asked
"Only with people I don't hate." Raven replied
"Oh, that explains a lot." Robin replied
"Shut up." Raven retorted.
"Let's just go down to the computer lab and pick out a country." Robin suggested
"Alright." Raven replied
Raven and Robin picked Colombia because they figured it would be the easiest flag to draw for their presentation. They did a little bit of research but they didn't find out much seeing as how they were distracted by other things. One of them being that Raven had actually hoped to be paired up with Robin.
'Why would I want that? I absolutely hate this guy but I still wanted him to pick me for this project. What's happening to me? It can't be love, can it?' Raven thought to herself
During study hall that day, instead of leaving with Jinx, Terra, and Gizmo Robin made her stay behind so they could start their project. They still didn't get much done seeing as how they couldn't work together or agree on anything. They did find out the population, type of government, and how much debt their country was in.
That afternoon when Raven got home, she logged onto instant messenger and she started talking to Jinx.

The rest of the weekend was a perfect get away from all of her school, expect for her cousin and Jinx, but Raven didn't mind that. She went to Hot Topic again and bought a new Happy Bunny shirt that says "You suck, and that's sad." Raven added this to her collection of Happy Bunny shirts. (Happy Bunny is awesome!)
Raven, Terra, Jinx, and Gizmo all went out to dinner together Saturday night just because they could and because they were given the money to do so.
On Monday, Raven wore a tight shirt and she got the reaction she wanted. And Jason did ask her out, and she said yes. This caused Raven to get hate e-mails again saying things like 'You said no to Robin but you say yes to Jason!' But Raven didn't care. She had the guys out of her hair because even though Jason wasn't super-jock he was still a football player and so nobody messed with him, except Raven and her friends.
Everything was perfect for her. Her boyfriend was really hot and she found out he had a six pack and she already knew he had a lot of muscle. He was perfect for her. If she'd be standing around some where and he'd see her, Jason would come up and hug her from behind where she fit perfectly into his arms. Each day was a new adventure. Jason also had study hall last period so he accompanied Raven, Jinx, Terra, and Gizmo on their 'adventures'.
The first full day that they'd been 'going out', they all went to the mall to do a sampler of all their favorite places at the food court. Raven sticking mainly to desserts and sides, Terra going for the main course stuff, Jinx eating everything, and Jason and Gizmo just eating everybody's stuff.
After a couple weeks, Raven was actually excited to go to school. Robin didn't bug her or stare at her all the time in Spanish, but Gizmo didn't tell her how much she'd hurt him by going out with Jason. Robin actually had his heart set on her, not just his eyes. But so did Jason.
Then one day, a few weeks after Jason and Raven's first day, Robin snapped. During Spanish, he was talking to Raven about random things like they usually do before class starts since they were now on friendly terms since Raven thought that Robin didn't want to bother with her any more. But then Robin just burst out:
"Raven, I don't think that you should date Jason." Robin said
"And why not?" Raven asked appalled that some one of his intellectual capabilities would think such a thing
"He's a trouble maker; you don't want to be associated with them." Robin said
"Well, apparently you don't know what I want because I don't care that he gets in trouble. I don't care that he mouths off to teachers or does stupid things in class. I think that's funny." Raven said
"But a nice girl like you shouldn't be dating a guy like him!" Robin said
"Nice girl, is that what you think I am, well apparently you don't know me at all Richard Grayson!" Raven shouted at him.
!#$&
"Uh oh, he's a goner, he just tried to place Raven in a group." Terra said
"I'm surprised he's lasted thing long." Jinx replied
!#$&
"Well, it's true!" Robin said
"How do you know? You think you know me? You think you can tell me the people I can and can't date? Well then Richard, if you think that I shouldn't date Jason, who do you think that I should date?" Raven said, saying everything that came to her mind.
About a minute of complete silence went by in the room.
"I'm waiting for an answer Rich." Raven said getting more and more annoyed as the seconds passed.
Robin muttered something but nobody in the room seemed to hear him.
"What did you say, I couldn't hear you." Raven said, even more pissed off then ten seconds ago. At this point in time, everybody who knew what was could happen was cowering in the corner of the room.
"I said, I think you should date a guy like me." Robin said pausing quickly after each word.
Hearing this, and realizing everything that he'd been feeling for the last couple of weeks, she just stood there gawking at him, but she kept her mouth closed in fear of something escaping. Then after she fished through her brain and remembered how to talk, she just barely gasped out a short, quite, "oh".
Then Mrs. Lehr walked into the classroom ready to start class. Throughout the whole thing, Raven was busy thinking about everything in the last couple of weeks and was berating herself for not seeing it. She was just too caught up with Jason, who by the way she was still going to go out with, that she didn't notice.
Only one person had left the class room during that class, and that was just to run down to the office but by the star of 5°, every senior knew about the fight between the most attractive guy and the most attractive girl in school.
As the news spread, the story changed a little bit and by the time it had reached Jason the story was so messed up that he was told Raven was dumping him for Robin. Of course he didn't believe this because he knew Raven didn't think of Robin as more then just a friend if that. It was actually just a formality.
So Jason didn't even think about bringing it up at lunch, except Raven did.
"Jason what were you told about my fight with Dick 4°?" Raven asked
"The same thing as everyone else except I was told that you're dumping me for Robin." Jason said
"Did you believe that part?" Raven asked
"Not a word." Jason replied
Then their table was silent for a couple minutes while everybody was eating.
"Jason." Raven said
"Yes Raven?"
"I love you so much." Raven replied standing up, walking around, settling herself in his lap, where she fir perfectly too, and then kissing him.
After lunch Jason had to go to his classes and Raven had to go to hers.
Robin and Jason had art together so that class was catastrophic too. Robin picked a fight with Jason too.
"You knew I loved Raven and you stole her from me." Robin said
"I don't believe so, fist of all because Raven's a human being and can think for herself and isn't just someone's toy and second of all she wasn't your to begin with." Jason replied ending this conversation quickly before he lost his temper.
!#$&
So, how was this chapter? Sorry if it seems to weird and seems like it's going to fast. And don't worry, I've got this whole thing pretty much planned out, it will end Raven/Robin, I think/hope. (Wow, isn't that just a confidence builder, the author doesn't know what's going to happen.) Well, hoped you liked this chappie!
