Old feelings resurface...

No one was there. She walked over to the center of the living room to see if what was going on was really happening. Just minutes ago she had heard immense commotion. Star, BB, and Cy were doing all sorts of things such as listening to loud music, playing video games, and talking loudly.

Now there was silence. A silence that pierced her heart, knowing that he wasn't there yet and she won't be able to enjoy the company of her friends. The fact that the others left without even saying goodbye only made her feel worse. The quiet filled her mind with sorrow and regrets. The regrets of being solitary. If only she had just come out when BB asked her to. Then these feelings wouldn't be occurring.

She left the center of the room and plopped down in front of the TV on the giant couch. She used her powers to bring the remote to her so she could surf through all the channels. Flipping from station to station, nothing had caught her eye until she reached the late fifties. It was channel fifty-six to be exact. This station had on songs from rock bands and she decided (since no one was around) she'd let herself go. She rose up off her ass and began jumping around and singing.

Over the time she was gone she discovered that she could control her emotions to a certain point. She could now laugh, have fun, cry, be sad, mourn, be depressed, be pissed off, be jealous and basically any other emotion you could think of. It's just that every once in a while if she was over emotional her powers would get out of hand

At the current moment though, nothing mattered to her. All she wanted to do was forget about her troubles, her worries, her fears, her desires, and everything else built up inside that just was waiting to burst free. She got lost in the music's rhythm and lyrics while doing a head banging motion and jumping, as if she were at a live rock show. After an hour or so of this she thought she heard something like a knock at the door that surprised her causing her to loose her footing and bump into a nearby lamp...

-At the Towers entrance-

'I wonder if anyone's home right now. It doesn't look as if anyone is here, but I defineatly hear noise from inside. Maybe I should check it out... that is if I could find that damn house key...' the man let out an agitated sigh and searched through all of his jean pockets. He finally found the key a few moments later and simply stared at it. It was his reminder of what used to be. He put his uniform and everything else locked away in a safe, but he always had the key in his possession at all times.

He remembered something then, a bit unclear of a memory, but still he could picture it. Each member's key was unique in its own way, so all the Titans decided they would keep them as a memento as being part of the team. The final day they were together StarFire suggested that they all switch keys... as a sort of friendship bond type of thing, which everyone agreed to. Raven and Robin exchanged their keys while BB and Cy switched theirs, but because Cy had made his with a button to open the door automatically (and BB kept opening and shutting the door) he took back his key to save his and the others' sanity. After that ordeal, Star and BB switched. Stars key was pink with a painted picture of Silky on it, BBs was a green key with a fierce looking tiger on it, Cys was a simple blue key with a silverish luster to it (and a small navy blue button near the top that could open the door automatically), Ravens key was a deep shade of purple with a black evil-looking crow on it and Robins was a black key with an 'R' on it that had flames within it...

He stood there for a minute or two. He stared at the key and its unique beauty. The dark bird with its wings spread out so wide across, its eyes seeming to glow a strange hue of red, and surrounding it a very unusual shade of purple. This small key was all he had to remind him of all the time he spent here, in this place that was in front of him andher, the girl of his dreams. How he longed for her and constantly thought of her. He let out a small sigh and lifted the key up to his nose and smelled it. It still had that intoxicating scent of lavender on it. He smiled to himself remembering her...

WHAM!!!

He heard something break within the tower and started to worry. He hoped everything was all right in there. He lowered his key down to the keyhole and slowly turned the doorknob, but made sure to knock before entering.

He entered the tower to a rather bizarre sight. There was a woman that looked to be around the age of twenty jumping around the room while a broken lamp lay on the floor. The stereos blasted some sort of rock music that she was watching on the flat wide-screen TV.

'That woman... she looks so familiar... wow...she's hot! Damn! She has a nice body! I wonder who that could be? It doesn't look like anyone from the Teen Titans, but then again a few years had passed' he thought to himself while letting himself show a confident smile. 'She's all mine'

Just as he finished that last thought the woman turned and noticed him in the doorway. Her shiny purple hair was up in a high ponytail and a few single strands of hair were in her face. Her extraordinary amethyst eyes stood out on her pale skin as they glared at him and the middle of her forehead there was a jewel that was glowing a mysterious purple. He lowered his gaze to her tight black "You haven't got a chance with me..." tee while admiring the curves of her petite body. He looked even further down to see she was wearing a black skirt that rose up to her upper thigh, revealing to him her perfect legs. The last thing he stared at was her feet. She wore black Vans and black ankle socks. Finally he did a once over of her wonderful body and then realized that she was talking to him.

"What the hell are you doing here? And what the fuck are you staring at? You damn PERVERT!!! And why do I see MY key in the door!!! ONLY Robin should have that!"

Her eyes glowed and objects within the tower started toglowa blackish color. Her anger rose and she stomped over to him.

"Well? ANSWER ME! You damn asshole! Oh my..."

She didn't finish her statement as she realized that the unthinkable might've happened. Robin wasn't there and this jerk had her key!

"Did you kill him? IF YOU DID I WILL..."

"Calm down! If you want I'll leave. Damn... freakin' spaz... I was just here for a reunion. That's all. I'm sorry for..."

"Robin?"

"Is that you?"

'Could that be him?' Raven looked at the man that stood in front of her, he looked flush which was probably from her most recent flip out. He was tall, looked to about twenty or so; he had spiky black hair, radiant dark brown eyes, and tanned skin. He wore an oversized black hoodie that had the band name 'Linkin Park' in flames on the front, long black jean shorts that came down to just above the knee, and black and white Converses. She also quickly noted that the part of his leg that was showing looked firm and muscular. 'Whoa... has he been working out or something? He looks buff, but I can only see his leg... not even the whole thing. DAMN!'

She gasped as she remembered what the Boy Wonder had done moments before. He was staring at her so intensively.

"Were you checking me out before, Robin?" she asked in her mono-toned voice while lowering her head, hoping he didn't see her blush.

"Uh... hehehe... nah, no... um... nope... hehehe"

He could feel himself growing hot as he stumbled over his own words and knew that he was probably blushing. 'Damn! She's hot... I wonder if she'll go out on a...'

"Date with you... maybe... depends. You sure you weren't checking me out?" She eyed him with a curious gaze and stepped closer to him. Now they were only a foot apart and she couldn't take her eyes off of his. She had never seen his eyes before because of that retarded mask he always had that covered most of his face.

"So, you can read minds, you're dressed all in black, and that was your key I used before. Wait a minute... Raven?!"

"Yeah?"

"Oh... um... nothing. And about that date thing, forget it. I was thinking about someone else. So don't worry.," he said trying to hide his real feelings for the dark beauty.

Raven felt her heart sink and she looked toward the ground, trying not to shed the tears that were tempted to fall from her eyes.

He noticed her odd behavior, but thought nothing of it. After all, she IS Raven.

"So... you like my eyes?"

"What????!!!!"

"Do you like my eyes? I saw you looking at them before... so I was just wondering what you thought."

"They look" in her mind she searched for the word, but all she could think of was a whole bunch of mushy love crap, so she went with something simple "fine."

"Okay... I guess I'll take that as a compliment from you" Robin said playfully, trying to cheer his depressed, mono-toned friend up.

She flashed him a slight smile and stepped even closer to him, so now there was only a few inches that kept them apart. She grabbed the laces of the hoodie and gave both of them a small jerk pulling Robin even closer so that their lips almost touched. She moved her mouth a bit closer to his, so that he could smell her sweet vanilla lip gloss.

"NEVER mess with my emotions like that!" she shouted as she kneed him in the groin making him fall to the ground in severe pain.

"OW! Fuck! That hurt! What the hell did I do?"

"Figure it out! You dumbass!"

Raven left the Towers entrance and stormed off to the living room to silence the television and clean up the broken lamp. "Damn fucking jerk. Always had to mess around with my feelings. Even though he loved Star. I guess he hasn't changed one bit," she whispered under her breath while mentally picking up the shattered pieces of the lamps bulb.

Robin overheard a little bit of what she said about him not changing and was ashamed. He had already pissed off the girl that he had always loved, but couldn't admit it. That was the main part of this whole trip for him, just to win her over somehow. She was everything he could ever want and Star never amounted to her, at least in his mind she didn't.

'Sure... I liked Star... and I agreed to go out with her... and I went on many romantic dates with her... and I even kissed her a few times, but I always longed for Rae. Now I don't even stand a chance!'

"Damn" he said quietly out loud unaware that Raven had heard him and oblivious to the fact that she might have read his mind. Luckily though she was too busy cleaning up to read his thoughts and only heard what he said.

"What's wrong Boy Wonder?" she asked mockingly making sure to say this in a sarcastic tone instead of her usual mono-toned voice.

Robin ignored her and carried his bags upstairs. He still remembered which room was his. It was the easiest to know or figure out if he ever happened to forget. All he had to do was walk up the stairs and go to the end of the hallway, where the last door was located.

He entered his old room and was stunned. All the pieces of newspaper that had once covered the four walls were sitting on his desk in two tall neat piles. Furniture was also added to his room, which used to be almost barren. Now his room had two red walls, two black walls, a white ceiling, his old desk, his old bed, a red velvet chair, a black loveseat, his old closet, a dresser, and a private bathroom. 'Guess someone did some improvements around here.' He unpacked all his clothes and other items then decided to take get cleaned up in his new bathroom. He thought Raven would probably be pissed at him, so he'd rather take a shower than deal with her tantrums.

-Downstairs in the living room-

She sat on the couch again, looking through the channels like she did a while ago, but this time she wasn't really paying attention to the TV. Her mind was on the boy wonder. He did change, but only physically... or maybe she just didn't give him a chance to prove that he changed in other ways. Whatever the case, she didn't care. All that mattered to her was that Robin was finally there, with her. She was now flipping through the channels again for the twenty-seventh time and it had been about an hour since Robin had gone upstairs

"Maybe I was a bit harsh" she said softly "I should go and at least say that I'm sorry. He has no idea that I've loved him for all these years... and maybe it's better it stays that way. He loves Star... always has and always will. Before when he was checking me out, he probably thought I was someone else. He might've thoght I was Star for all I know. Why did I expect him to change?"

Raven turned off the TV and headed upstairs toward the roof, but when she was almost there she stopped. 'I think I should tell him what's going on. If I don't who knows what will happen! All hell could break loose... just because of my love for him. I don't want to take any chances or put anyone at any risk just because of my feelings. I better teel him and get this over with.' She turned in the opposite direction and headed to Robins room.
