Chapter 5: Fireworks, Kissing and Teenage Groups

Suddenly something shot out of the water....

There was a blast in the air and then a shower of little green and blue sparks falling into the water. They were Fireworks!! That's why so many people were here! But... Raven looked over at Beast Boy who was mesmerized by all the colours "Did you know about this?" she asked. He looked over at her then spoke as another firework shot up in the air and exploded into a red sparkles "Yep. But this was a part that I didn't want you knowing about until now. I wanted it to be a big surprise." Raven was content with her date so far. They slowly moved the table from on the blanket to on the sand. They both crawled up to the top taking their pillows, which they were sitting on while eating, up with them. They lay down on the blanket looking at the fireworks explode in the sky and then rain down into the sea. Raven shivered then decided to do something that she knew would have her emotions going nuts. She slowly moved her head from the pillow to Beast Boy chest and came closer to his body. She could here his heart beating in unison with the fireworks explosion as her ear rested it on his chest.

The Fireworks were nearly over and the position that Raven had moved into earlier hadn't changed since. Kept each other warm so the extra blanket wasn't required, the only thing it had been required for was to hide twelve beautiful red roses that he had given her halfway through the fireworks. Beast Boy looked over at Raven, there was something about her... its not that her eyes were twinkling from the sudden bursts of light, its not because she was resting her head on his chest... and its wasn't because she looked stunning... for the first time in Beast Boys life he saw Raven without a dreary look on her face. He saw her looking... happy.

Raven felt Beast Boys gaze and turned her head to look over at him. He had a small grin on his face that made him look so handsome. She felt like they were the only people in the world as his face slowly made his way towards hers. There lips touched and her wall was finally torn down. Black sand rose around them and exploded but they ignored it. They heard the table explode and the forks, knives and plates but as long as no one got hurt they couldn't care less. The couple sat their lips together when both Titans knew that this is what Love really was.

The radio played in the background 'My Heart Will Go On- Celine Dion' as the last Firework flew up into the air exploded into a green and purple ball and fell slowly descended into the ocean. It looked like the sky was crying purple and green tears. There lips finally unlocked as they slowly pulled away from each other. A smile grew on Beast Boy's face as they looked at each other. Raven lips were slightly curved upwards into a small smile. Beast Boy reached for the basket that had blown up, when Raven had lost control of her emotions when they were kissing, so he searched around the ground looking for the small box of chocolates he had bought for them to share. It was there he grabbed it, placed it in between them and opened up the box. He picked one up and placed it in his mouth ' French Vanilla' he thought 'Yum!!'

Raven slowly picked up a chocolate and placed it in her mouth 'Milk Chocolate.' Almost everyone had cleared off the beach by now but Raven and Beast Boy stayed and looked out at the sky as though they were expecting more fireworks. Then for no apparent reason Beast Boy stood up and started walking off down the Beach. Raven then shouted to him "Where are you going?" Beast Boy turned around and started to walk backwards. "Bathroom." He shouted back then spun around and rushed off down the beach towards the bathroom area. So she sat there alone with the radio playing 'Rescue- Uncle Cracker'. It was so tranquil the waves crashed against the shore and moon shone done illuminating everything and giving it a pale grey appearance. She looked up at the stars they shone down like eyes watching everyone as they slept on earth. Usually she would be meditating if she was here but tonight she just... couldn't. Everyone else on the beach was gone 'It must be about 11:30.' She thought. Suddenly she heard a car pull into the parking lot and a bunch of people hit the pavement as climbed out of the car. She ignored them 'Its probably just some people come to clean up the beach.' She thought then she put another chocolate in her mouth and continued to sit and watch the stars shimmer in the night sky. She heard the people come down the beach she turned around just in time to see a metal pole hit her face shooting pain throughout it. The world started to fade into a black abyss as she felt herself collapse onto the blanket.

Beast Boy found the Bathroom but unfortunately they were closed. He looked up at one of the sand dunes. 'Know one will ever need to know.' He climbed up, using grass that grew on dunes to help him, he finally reached the top and.... Well you know. After he was done he slid back down on his butt and started to walk back where Raven was. As he drew closer he saw a figure lying on the ground.
He started to run the closer and closer he got the more lifeless the figure appeared. When arrived... Raven was sprawled out on the blanket unconscious and bleeding.

Hey I said the big boom wasn't a date ruiner. Something else was. Do you know what or better yet who??
