Note: thanks loyal readers! anyways,I know a lot of you are wanting the rob-rae thing to happen, andI PROMISE it will, since I want it to happen too, but not for a while, so quit complaining! To quench your thirst, I suggest reading one of my previous works, 'It's Not Your Fault', which is all about Robin and Raven and is a 'companion' sort of thing to this story. Besides, if you hate Terra, this story isn't too bad because it will show both her sides and everyone won't be as forgiveing as they appear so far (hint). Trust me, you'll learn to love it! ANGST!

Third Chance

Ronnoco

Chapter VI

Movie Night

Terra watched as Raven left the room, having finished her work there and now heading to the common area to help Starfire with the glorp. She sighed heavily, rubbing her head, which was surprisingly only sore a very little bit. She turned on the water, and began removing the forsaken cloth, throwing away the memories of her painful past away with it. Stepping into the stall, she recalled the last time she felt the way she did now, long ago on the first day at Titans tower, washing in the similar shower downstairs. It was the same incredible feeling, cleansing herself of the less-honorable past; that emotion deep in the depths of one's heart, the feeling of friendship, love, and of hope. It felt like the dawning of a new age, like you could start all over and not worry about old mistakes. It was truly a fresh life; a third chance, and she wasn't going to mess it up.

Forty-minutes later, Terra strode into the main room, hair dripping wet, wearing pajama pants and a fitting gray T-shirt, her usual wear for a night of pizza and movies. Raven, shockingly, on the couch cuddled comfortably with Robin, wearing cotton sleep pants and a tank. Terra only got a glimpse though, for a moment later, Beast Boy was dragging her over to the table, spread with eight large pizza boxes, ten bottles of various pop, over two dozen DVD cases, and an overflowing bowl of, what else, glorp. "Okay Terra! It's your night, what movie do you want to watch first?"

Terra picked up the cases, examining each title, while Cyborg turned up the volume on the boom box, blasting some sort of cross of Techno and Rap. "Hmm, what's this one about?" she finally asked, holding a disk up to Beast Boy.

"Oh, that's 'The Day After Tomorrow'. It's got awesome effects, a bunch of natural disasters happen at once and the world is freezing up and this girl gets sick and there's this cancer kid waiting for an ambulance and the dad needs to get to his son and the son is living in the library and, well, I don't want to spoil it... It's an action sort of thing, I think you'd like it." He offered, not stopping for a breath.

"Um, have you guys already seen it?" Terra questioned, not wanting to bore her friends.

"No, I saw the preview trailer at the theater, and I got a summary online." Beast Boy shrugged.

"Okay, let's watch."

Immediately, Robin and Cyborg dropped what they were doing and dashed to the table, their stomachs impatient from Starfire's pleas to wait until Terra, their 'guest of honor', selected a movie.

Raven simply frowned from the couch, muttering something about 'boys', as Beast Boy quickly snatched the Tofu pizza and slid the disk into the DVD player. Starfire pushed the bowl towards Terra "Glorp?" she asked , hopeful.

"Yeah, I'll throw some in a dish..." Terra replied nervously, backing away slowly from her over-joyous friend. As Terra got together a massive supply of food, starved from not haven had anything in well over a year, Starfire sat down in a recliner by the couch, Cyborg took the other, and Robin snuggled back to his spot beside Raven. Beast Boy, however, remained by her side. She glanced back over at the couch. "Um, Beast Boy," she whispered, "are they dating?"

"You could say that... A lot has changed since you left. I guess this is one." He whispered back, suppressing a snicker. He then took her hand, blushing a palpable crimson across his green face, and led her to the couch, laying contentedly on the opposite side of Raven and Robin.

The movie began, the room's lights dimming off, leaving the Titans in the distinct glow of the television. Terra smiled sweetly to herself, scooting closer to her Beast Boy. She glanced over at Raven, enjoying herself in very much the same way, and exchanged grins of trusting happiness. Finally, it seemed, everything was smooth sailing...
