Terra and mark made there way back to the crowd. Terra was used to mark hurting her. She didn't want anyone to know about the beatings. It would be to embarrassing. Whenever mark looked at her, she smiled. Like nothing was wrong. But there always was something wrong. At least, when mark was around. They walked down a hallway, but terra was pulled aside. But mark didn't seem to notice.
"terra?" beast boy asked pulling terra away from mark. Terra smiled at him. But then quickly wiped it away.
"what, beast boy?" she said, crossing her arms. Bb breathed in deeply. He wasn't quite sure how he was going to say what was on his mind. But he knew he would have to admit it sooner or later.
"umm? What's up?" he said, trying to ignore his feelings. Terra sighed.
"I don't have time for this, beast boy. I'm sure mark is waiting. And-" she started, but bb quickly pressed his lips to hers. Terra stopped talking, and looked into beast boy's eye's. she wanted this, but maybe this was a bad time. She wanted to pull away, and she tried. But beast boy put his arm around her waist, so he could get closer to her. Terra realized this was all she wanted. This was it, and she wasn't going to pass the chance up. Not for mark, not for anybody. She put her arms around beast boy's neck, and they remained kissing.
------------------------------------flashback-----------------------------------
Beast boy sat on his bed and looked at a picture of terra, a few times he walked to her door, and lifted his fist to knock, but he gave up each time and ran back to his bedroom. Then he finally stood up.
"okay, beast boy. It's time to take charge." he said, stomping out of his room, and to terra's. he again, stood outside her door. Lifting his fist, but then putting it back down. "she'll never like me, the way I like her." he said, he turned his back to her door. And took a step forward.
"beast boy?" he heard. He turned, and saw terra. He blushed, and jumped a bit.
"ah? Hi, terra." he said.
"what are you doing out here?" she asked.
"I, ah, came to ask you something." he said, sweating from being nervous.
"what?" she asked, smiling.
"well, umm, I…" he stuttered. Terra laughed a little. And beast boy smiled. "I really like you, and i want to be your boyfriend." he said. Terra's jaw dropped. And she really didn't have anything to say.
"excuse me?" she asked.
"look, if you don't want to go out with me, you don't have two." he said, his heart was broken. Terra put her hand on his shoulder. And smiled.
"I want to be your girlfriend." she said, and with that, she pulled him into her room, and shut the door behind them.

Starfire watched robin from across the room. He wasn't talking to her anymore. And she felt really bad for throwing a star bolt at him. She didn't want to. But her heart was telling her to let him go. She watched him and jade talking from across the room. And every so often share a quick little pack. Much more less of a kiss then what they shared. She kept telling herself that she did the right thing, but her self was yelling at her for even thinking that was the right thing to do. Because deep down, she knew thing's couldn't get worse.
"hey, star." Starfire heard. She turned her head, she knew it couldn't be robin. But she was still very happy that anyone was talking to her. It was victor.
"hello, Cyborg." she said, not thinking of his name change, but suddenly it came to her. "I mean, victor." she blushed. Victor nodded.
"you can call me anything, Starfire. Your like my little sister. And I know something's troubling you, you might as well tell me. Or I'll get raven to read your mind." he kidded her. She chuckled, and then looked at him.
"robin…dick, Has a girlfriend. And he say's he love's her." she admitted. victor gave her a sad face.
"and you still love him?"
"now you are the one reading the minds." she said, smiling at him. Victor smiled back.
"do you want me to talk to him?" he asked, trying to fix another dispute between friends.
"no, he is not worth your talking to him." she said. Then she looked back at jade and dick, they were still talking.
"but you still think he's worth the world don't you? That's why your telling me this. I wont talk to him Starfire. I think you're the one who has to do the talking." he said. Starfire looked back at victor.
"do you really think my words will change his mind?" she asked. Victor nodded.
"I think your words can change his heart." he said. Pointing at her heart. Starfire smiled and gave him a tight hug. Victor smiled at her. "I hope you do change his mind, that jade girl he's hanging out with is really starting to piss me off." he said. Starfire smiled at his choice of words.
"I hope so to." she said. Pulling away. Then she gave victor a glance, and then looked at dick. "wish me luck." she said, taking a few step's towards dick. Victor crossed his fingers.
"I wish you all the luck in the world." he said. Then he watched his friend walk away to his other friend. And he knew they would end back up together. At least, he hoped they would end back up together.
Raven and Seth were sitting on the couch. Talking to dick and jade. Raven was trying her hardest not to jump over the table and strangle the life out of her. And, Seth holding her back was helping two.
"so, you say you knew Richard when he was young?" jade asked. In an annoying tone. Raven cringed.
"yes." she answered quickly. Jade looked over at dick.
"that's so cute, she's like…a maid right?" she said. Raven started to get anger marks showing off of her forehead. And dick chuckled to the sight.
"no, she's a really good friend of mine." he said. Raven smiled at him, and she stuck her tongue out at jade. But jade didn't notice. Then, Starfire walked up.
"rob-dick. Can we…talk for one moment?" she asked. Dick smiled at her.
"yea," then he looked at jade. "I'll be right back." he said. Then Starfire and him walked away. On there way, they past terra and beast boy. Who were now making out on the wall. They walked to robin's old bedroom. Dick closed the door behind the both of them.
"robin, I asked to talk to you, because, well, I realized I love you to. And it was wrong of me to hide it from you." she said. Looking in dick's eye's.
"Starfire, it wasn't wrong. I made it sound like I didn't like you at all. That's not true, star. I'm really confused right now. Because, I thought I loved jade. But then I see you and then all of the sudden your all I think about? This is nut's." he said. Sitting down on his old bed. Starfire walked over and put her hand on his shoulder.
"it is alright if you love jade. I don't want to make you unhappy…dick." she said, she was still getting used to his new name. Dick looked up at Starfire she had a tear falling down her cheek. He stood up and wiped it away.
"ten years went by. I wanted to come back, but I was afraid to show my face. I didn't break my promise. I never forgot about my family. And I never forgot about you." he said. Starfire made dick sit back down on the bed. Then she sat on his lap. There faces were only inches apart. They both knew what was going to happen next. And there were both happy it was finally going to happen. Starfire pressed her lips against dick's. and they shared a kiss for an hour, there tongue's were in each others mouths. And they never enjoyed anything as much as they were enjoying that kiss. But they were interrupted with a knock on the door.
"dick, are you in there?" they heard jade ask. Dick looked at Starfire. He didn't know what to tell her, he didn't even know what to do. He tried to talk but Starfire put her finger on dick's lip's.
"she'll go away." Starfire said, leaning in for another kiss. Dick accepted the kiss, and kept quiet. Maybe this meant that he was going to leave jade, and stay with Starfire. Maybe it was the right choice, or maybe it was the wrong choice. But right now, he didn't care. He was happy. The most happy he's ever been in ten years.
Terra and beast boy were still making out on the wall, when bb pulled terra's hair back, he noticed something on her neck.
"what is that?" he asked. Looking at the marked handprints on her neck. Terra put her hair back the way it was.
"it's nothing." she said. Bb looked into her eye's. he knew something was wrong. And he knew what it was. That mark guy was hurting her.
"he's hurting you, isn't he?" he asked. He can tell the way terra was looking back at him that he was right, he was hurting her. But bb couldn't let that go on. He loved terra. And he didn't want some punk hurting her.
"terra, I need to know if he's hurting you. I want to help you." he said. Laying his hand on hers. She leaned on the wall and slowly started to slide to the floor. Beast boy did two. She had tears creating in her eye's. and she didn't want to tell beast boy the truth.
"he's not hurting me, ok. I fell down the stairs." she said. Looking away. Beast boy pulled her head, so she would look back at him.
"terra, falling down the stairs doesn't but handprints on your neck. I need to know who did this two you." he said, getting more serious. Terra couldn't believe how beast boy was acting. She had never seen him this way before.
"I did it." she said. Bb squinted his eye's at her. And terra could tell that he didn't believe her. Beast boy pulled her head up to his, and kissed her on the forehead. Then he laid his head on hers.
"you know you can tell me anything, right?" he asked. Trying to get the truth out of her.
"I know." she said. Trying to hold back the truth from him.
"so, tell me who did this to you." he said. Looking back into her eye's. she didn't want to tell him. But maybe telling him would be a good idea. She looked away.
"mark, was angry. It was my fault. It really was." she said. Bb's mouth flew open. He was surprised. And then he was angry. Very angry. He stood up and stormed into the other room. Terra ran after him and grabbed his arm to stop him.
"beast boy, no!" she yelled. She pulled him back into the hall, and pressed him against the wall. "please, don't." she said. She pressed herself against him to hold him back. But she could still feel him trying to get away.
"terra, I cant let him get away with hurting you. It's a crime!" he yelled, nudging terra aside. Terra grabbed his arm again.
"beast boy, if you do this, I'll leave, and never talk to you again." she threatened. Beast boy stopped and looked at her. He wanted to go beat this guy up. But, not seeing terra again would be the worst thing ever. He wasn't going to take that chance. He lost her once, he wasn't about to lose her again.
"alright, terra. I'll let him go." he said. Terra smiled at him and hugged him tightly. Bb wasn't happy. But at least he was with terra. The girl of his dreams. When they finally pulled apart they looked into each other's eyes. They leaned in for another kiss. But then,
"terra," marks voice echoed terra and beast boy pulled apart, and terra pushed beast boy into the closet, so mark couldn't see him.
"I'll be back." she said. Gently closing the door. Then, mark appeared.
"did you think I wouldn't notice that you were gone?" he asked firmly. Beast boy listened from the closet.
"no, I knew you would notice, I just had to go to the bathroom." she said. Pointing towards the bathroom. Mark looked at her. He could tell she wasn't telling the truth. He grabbed her wrist and pinned her against the wall.
"no you weren't, you were with that, beast boy again, weren't you!?" he yelled. Terra tried to break free from his grip. But she could not. She looked over at the closet. And knew that beast boy was getting angrier and angrier.
"no, I swear mark." she said. Then she kissed him quickly on the cheeks. Beast boy's fist was already in a ball. He wanted to tear this guy to pieces.
"I swear terra, If I see you with him again, I'll kill you." he said. Terra's eye's widened. She couldn't tell if he was serious or not. But the look in his eye's looked serious enough. She nodded slowly. And then mark let her go. She gave the closet one last glance, before getting pulled away by mark. Beast boy opened the door and walked behind terra and mark. He wasn't going to let this guy get away, he was pissed off.
