Hey guys. I'm going to really focus this chapter on the Titans because Terra got a lot of spotlight in the past few chapters. So don't be wondering why she's not mentioned AS MUCH in this chapter.

YojimbosBlade- Thanks :)

The Drewfus- O.o you got kicked out of a concert? What did you do?!

Anavrin 14- Wow! Thank you so so much!

Enjoy the chapter!

Chapter 7: Pilule Du Bonheur

It was mid-day at Titans Tower. Everyone was tending to their own needs and wants. Starfire and Robin were cooking in the kitchen. Robin had on a pink apron since every other one was ruined from Star's attempts at cooking ("What are you wearing?!" "Hey, it takes a real man to wear pink, Cy."). Currently, Robin was trying to explain or pleading to Starfire that horse radish did not go into Chicken Parmesan.

"Star, you do NOT put that in Chicken Parmesan!"

"But Robin, the radish of horse is so delightful in my Glorgongka."

Robin cringed remembering Galagers Night. It was then that Robin noticed that the toilet in the bathroom was made out of chrome...

"Let's just follow the recipe, ok Star?"

Star smiled and nodded, "Very well Robin."

Cyborg paused a video game and turned to the couple. "You guys seen B anywhere?"

Robin stopped stirring marinara sauce to think, "I..don't think so. Haven't seen him since he got home that night from that café..."

Starfire had stopped chopping garlic, "I am worried about friend Beast Boy. He is taking Terra's passing rather hard. I do not like seeing him this way." Robin put a hand on Starfire's shoulder, "We all don't Star. But he'll come to. Don't worry."

Starfire smiled weakly at Robin, "Yes, I do believe he will." She paused and cast her eyes down. She meekly brought them back up, looking into Robin's, "Robin, would mourn like Beast Boy is now if I were to pass to the heavens of Great Landony?"

Robin blushed a deep magenta, "O-of course Star. You're my best friend. I couldn't live without you." Realizing what he said, Robin blushed even deeper. Despite it, he forced a smile.

He stood there, just smiling at Starfire until she looked over his shoulder, "Um Robin? Is the sauce supposed to be overflowing the metal pot of cooking?"

"Huh?"

Robin turned around to see the pot overflowing with red sauce, starting to cover the stove.

"Holy crap!"

------

Raven was in her room reading one of her medieval books. It was getting to it's climax as the young wizard was about to be burned with scorching fire for his execution. Suddenly, Raven smelled smoke and- what was that? Sauce?

She raced downstairs to see a scene that would make even her stony mentor, Azar, laugh until tears pricked his eyes.

Sauce was everywhere. Just everywhere. It looked like a war zone! Robin and Cy were frozen in their positions with looks of shock on there faces. Robin was in mid-step, hand on the pot where the sauce was pouring out from, Cy was holding his hands out in front of him, protecting himself. Both were covered in sauce from head to toe. Raven, mouth agape, looked over to the left where Starfire was standing innocently with a hand on her mouth.

"Um.."

Robin and Cy snapped out of their trance. "Star! I told you not to use star-bolts on it!" Robin shook his hands furiously, trying to get the sauce off of them.

"I did not know that sauce of marin was prone to...um..explode.."

"Well," Cy put a mechanical finger in his ear, trying to dig out the red substance, "Now we ALL know..."

Raven smirked, "I'm not even going to ask. And Robin," Raven walked over to the huge window in the den, "Red suits you just fine with that pink apron. Same color as Star's teddy right?"

Robin's mouth dropped to the floor as Cy began to laugh out loud, unable to control it. Starfire still looked innocent and confused,

"Robin? What is a teddy? Is Raven informing you of the piece of silk I wear when we perform-"

"That's enough Star!" Robin slapped a wet, saucy hand to Star's mouth.

"Aw man this is way too good! Where's BB when you need him!?"

"SpeakingofBeastBoy" Robin hurriedly tried to change the subject, "Have you seen him Raven?"

"No."

"Huh, and I thought you weren't going to be vivid on this.."

"Why would I see him? It's not like I'm across the street with a telescope and a box of donuts..."

Cy's eyes widened, "You mean, you don't do that???"

Raven cast a glare. "At least I don't watch Star and Robin like that..."

Robin's face reddened and he turned to Cyborg, "What?!?!"

Cy put his hands in front of him, "No! No! I don't do that!"

"Then why would Raven inform us that you did?"

Cy's eyes darted back and forth, "Um.. Raven's drunk again."

Raven got up and walked over to Cyborg, eyes flashing a dangerous red, "That only happened ONCE! It was New Years Eve and you and Beast Boy told me it was Coke with a twist!"

"Heh, it was twist alright! Ha Ha!" Cy doubled over with laughter.

Robin knew this could go down a dangerous road, "Raven! Why don't you go see if BB's alright?"

Raven sighed annoyingly, though her heart fluttered, "Must I?"

"Please?"

"Fine."

Raven left the room but not until she said one more last thing, "Oh and Cyborg, make sure you get the jelly filled donuts next time."

Cy sweat-dropped and turned to the furious couple. Cy put up his hands in defense as to big shadows loomed over him.

"Guys, I can explain..!"

-----

Raven walked down the hall to Beast Boy's room. Thoughts swirled in her head.

'What am I going to say to him? He'll want an explanation why I'm here. I can't say Robin told me to because he knows I never listen to Robin in these situations!'

Raven reached the green door labeled, 'Beast Boy'. Raven stomach flip-flopped as she quietly knocked.

'Tap Tap'

The door swished to reveal a tired looking BB. "What?"

"Ummm..... I was just wondering if you were ok."

Beast Boy's eyes widened, "Raven. The- one- who- never- laughs- at- my- jokes -and- thinks- I'm -a -pathetic- excuse- for -a- human life-force Raven is asking me if I'm okay? Are you okay?!"

Raven glared, "I just wanted to know. Why must you make it a big deal? Can't I see if my teammate and friend is alright?"

"Sure! It's just that you never do. And I never knew you cared.."

Raven crossed her arms and cast her eyes down, head to the side, "Well there's a lot of things about me you don't know. Don't just think I'm a cold-hearted bitch just because I'm different."

"Whoa, Rae, I didn't know. I'm sorry."

"Whatever."

"No, really! I am! And I don't think your cold-hearted Raven. You're just different which is fine."

Raven lifted her eyes to meet Beast Boy's, "Really? Or is this another of your lame jokes?"

Beast Boy weakly smiled at the insult, "I'm serious."

Raven shifted from one foot to the other. Very uncomfortable situation.

"So are you? We know you're taking Terra's...passing..really hard."

Beast Boy sighed, "Raven she's here! I saw her. She just doesn't remember right now. But I'll make her. I'll help her. I need her, Rae. When Terra's not here, I feel like I'm not here either."

"Just let yourself come back, Beast Boy. She wasn't right for you." Raven wanted so bad to just heal his wounds. Raven inwardly shuddered, why was she feeling this way? 'Because you love him.' Raven glared at the ground, but... she didn't correct herself...

"How do you know?"

"Because...she hurt you. Terra She had a chance to come back, but she didn't. In the end...she didn't have another chance and you know it. You need someone that will never leave you. Someone who really loves you."

BB snorted, "Phff, yea? Then who?"

Raven cast her eyes down once again for a minute. She then brought them back up, meekly, but shining.

"I can think of one..."

Raven slowly snaked her arms around Beast Boy's neck (he was now 2 inches taller than her). BB's eyes widened a bit but he didn't shake her off, he didn't protest. Raven's breath was shaky, her stomach had a whirlwind inside of it.

What was she doing? She was Raven! She wasn't supposed to feel anything! Raven closed her eyes and leaned in. 'Screw it.' Her lips made contact with Beast Boy's sooner than she expected. She let out a squeak of surprise. She could feel BB smile.

He had leaned in too! 'Oh my God Oh my God...'

Beast Boy gently placed his hands on her back, caressing her figure. Raven let out for air then returned, and despite her weak little protest, she opened her mouth to let BB explore.

BB took his chance and went with it. Both of their tongues met and touched. Both recoiled but soon regained confidence as they intertwined with each other. Raven moved her tongue across Beast Boy's sharp fangs. She felt like she was drifting on a cloud. Nothing could make her falter. Nothing. Not even Terra.

Beast Boy was aware of what he was doing as he gripped Raven's small body tighter and pushed it against his. He knew he was kissing Raven as she pushed against him also so he would be up against the wall. He knew it wasn't Terra. And, that's what frightened him a little. He was supposed to love Terra right? He did love her...didn't he? Well, if he did, then why did he feel like this, right now, was meant to happen?

"Yo Raven! Did you find BB ye-ahhhAH!"

Raven and beast Boy quickly parted and BB pushed her off of him to not make a scene. Yeah. That really helped.

"Whoa...I-I didn't know that you two had a uh...thing. I'm really sorry! But...This is HUGE!"

Beast Boy walked up in front of Raven, leaving her in the dust. He waved his hands frantically and shook his head repeatedly, "No! No, it's NOT huge. It's small, it's petite! It's weak..."

"Yea and I don't watch Star and Robin do it, eating a box of donuts...whoops..."

"No Cy really! I-I wasn't kissing her..! I-I thought she was Terra!"

Raven's heart right then stopped, cracked, fell apart and burned. That's why he kissed her? Because he thought she was Terra?

Beast Boy quickly turned around to face Raven, realizing what had just come out of his mouth, "Raven! I-"

"Don't." She said strongly. "I don't ever. Want. To see. Your face. Again."

Her face held no emotion, but her eyes held everything. Sadness, anger, hurt... betrayal. She practically ran down the hall to her room and slammed the door.

Cyborg stared at the green boy that was still looking at where she had run off. "Dude...what, how, where....WHEN?!"

"Cy," Beast boy turned around to face his friend, "I screwed up. Please, don't do this. Now's not the time man." He walked out to the den and sat on the couch, Cy following behind him.

Cyborg sat next to him. He sighed and turned to his green comrade. "You weren't thinking she was Terra, were you?"

Beast Boy laid his head on the back of the couch, "No..."

"Then why did you say you were?"

"I'm supposed to be in love with Terra! She's the one! My only one... I should of never kissed Raven. Never. I need to keep thinking of ways for Terra to remember me!"

"Would it even do you any good?"

"What?"

"I mean, do you really want her back after what she did to you?"

"She made a mistake. She loved me. I know it."

Cyborg stood up angrily and shouted at Beast Boy, "And so does Raven! She loves you! Why do you think she kissed you! She made the first move!"

"How do you know?!"

"Dude, you were up against the wall with Raven on top of you!"

Beast Boy fell silent, arms crossed with an angry expression, looking at the floor.

Cyborg calmed down and looked at BB with soft brown eyes and said softly, "Do you want someone here, right now, or someone that broke your heart with no mercy and..is gone forever?"

Beast Boy's angry features melted away as he looked up to the mechanical giant. He had a choice only he, Beast Boy, could make.

-----

'How could he do something like that?!' Raven had her head in her pillow, arms wrapped around it. Tears stained it's dark blue cover. She had been crying. She was still crying really. He broke her heart into tiny pieces. Her room resembled that. Raven had just let go of her harbored tears and let out the dam that was breaking. Her curtains were lop-sided, her desk was on the other side of the room, some of the statues were no more and lamps had burst.

Raven had never felt anything like this. It felt like her cloud had disappeared when he had said that and she fell to the ground below with a crack.

'That bastard! That stupid moron! I hate him! I-' Raven sat up, tears streaming down her face. 'I can never hate him. I-I love him. There's nothing I can do if his heart is set on Terra.'

She sat there, alone in the dark, sniffles echoing off her walls. 'Maybe.. I was meant to be alone in the dark...'

It was then Raven heard a knock on the door. She normally would have said 'Not now, I'm meditating' but she really needed to see someone.

Raven got up and opened her door. Her eyes glassed over with tears. There was Beast Boy, standing in the doorway, with tear marks streamed down his face.

"Hey... Can I come in?"

Raven opened the door a little more and he stepped inside.

There came a Raven. There came Hope.

-----

A/N: How do you like it? Did I rush the Rae/BB kiss too fast? I really wanted to get it done in this chapter cause I have a plan for the next one.

Sorry if the 'Coke with a twist' thing was lame. I never tasted beer so I don't know what it resembles to.

I hope you're getting that some of the things written in italic are from Terra's song. I thought it would be a nice touch, no?

The title of this chapter means Purple Heart in French.

Well here's your chappie! Please Read and Review :)
