Chapter 2: A Raven's wish
Raven decided that she would go and meditate up on the roof so that she could have time where she didn't think about Robin and Starfire. "Asarath, Metrion, Zinthos. Asarath, Metrion, Zinthos. Asarath, Metrion, Zintho…"
"Robin you must stop with your words of kindness!" Raven heard Starfire say much to loud, from down below.
She shut her eyes tighter and began saying her chant with more force this time as she was finding it hard to concentrate. Suddenly, she felt something drop by the side of her. She opened her eyes and saw a package of some sort next to her. It was addressed to her. She picked it up and looked at it suspiciously. She took it back down to her room and sat on her bed, staring at it. "Why would someone send me a parcel? I don't really no anyone outside of the Titans apart from titans east and villains. Maybe a villain sent it to me as a trick. Maybe it was the same one that pulled me under the water last night. Well, there's only one way to find out." She picked up the parcel and slowly and carefully began to unwrap it. Inside was a cloak, pair of boots and a leotard thing, identical to the ones she had on. She lifted them up and looked at them. A note fell out of the cloak so Raven picked it up and read it.
Raven, Your mother gave this for me to look after until it was your 16 and one half's day. I was told to send it to you. It is an outfit, identical to the ones you have always worn, but this one enables you to feel and show any emotions you want to. When you put this on, it will immediately alter your other outfits so that they can do the same as this one. Do not question who I am and come in search of me for I live on Asarath. Your mother loved you much and wished you the freedom from your father that she never had. Use it well Raven.
That was it. She looked at it suspiciously. She re-read the letter a few more times. She decided that there was only one way to find out whether it was true. She took off her normal outfit and put the new one on. She felt no different. She ran down to the living area where Cyborg and Beast Boy were playing on the Xbox. "BB, tell me a joke." Raven said to him.
"Uhhh, ok. Why did the one handed man cross the road?" Raven shrugged. "To get to the second hand shop!" Raven laughed, not that the joke was funny but it seemed so stupid and poor. Nothing exploded.
Beast Boy and Cyborg sat there staring at her. "Since when can you laugh?" Beast Boy asked.
"Since I got my new cloak! I can show emotions!" Raven said skipping. Okay, I know Raven never skips but she can now! Yay! Raven ran up to the roof and stood near the edge, taking in and feeling the cool gentle breeze on her face.
Meanwhile, with Robin and Starfire.
All Robin could here was Starfire babbling on about random stuff, which really had no point. He started to think about what Raven was doing. Maybe she was meditating. He wished he could get away like that. It meant he wouldn't have to listen to Starfire. "Uhhh, Star, I have to go and ummmm, do something. Sorry to leave it like here." Robin said.
"Oh Robin. Do not worry. We can continue our conversation on coffee later. I enjoy spending time with you." Starfire said smiling.
"Thanks Star. We will talk about ummmm coffee later." Robin kissed Starfire and walked off up to the tower. He went to the gym and started to kick the punching bag. "God! She's everywhere I go! At least I finally have some time to myself. I mean, I love her yeah but I can't help but feel that ever since we've been dating, she's gotten dumber!" Robin kicked the bag harder than he intended and it broke down from the ceiling and flew across the room. "I need some fresh air." He thought. He walked out of the gym and went up to the roof. As he was going up the stairs that lead to the roof, he passed Raven. They brushed slightly. "Hey Raven." Robin said smiling.
"Oh. Hi Robin. Have fun with Starfire?" Raven asked smiling also. Nothing could put her down today, not even seeing Robin and Starfire together.
"Fine thanks. I'll see you later then." Robin said and continued walking up the stairs to the roof while Raven continued walking down the stairs. "Since when does Raven smile?" Robin thought to himself.
Following Raven…
Raven walked down all the hallways until she walked past the gym. She noticed the punching bag lying across the room on the floor. She went in and lifted it back up the ceiling. She carried on walking. She got a book from her room and went down to the kitchen and started to read on the counter. Cyborg and Beast Boy were arguing about the dinner. Robin came down and sat down next to her. Starfire soon floated in and sat down next to Robin and threaded her arm through his. Raven moved up abit so that she didn't have to sit near them.
It was Raven's turn to wash and dry so she was cleaning up. Starfire had gone and sat down with BB and Cyborg and they were watching a film. Robin had gone to the gym and started working out…again. Raven soon finished and started walking to her room. She walked past the gym and saw that Robin was sitting on a bench with his hands in his head and yet again that the punching bag was across the room on the floor. She stood there, staring at him through the glass window in the door. She didn't know how long she had been staring but it had been a while. Starfire soon floated up and saw Raven watching Robin. "Raven, is everything ok?" Starfire asked.
Raven pulled out of her trance and looked up at her. "Ummmm, yeah, I was just passing." Raven said and walked away.
Raven had been 'just' passing for over a week now and Starfire was starting to get suspicious.
Starfire went to Raven's room later that week and knocked on her door. Raven opened the door and let Starfire in. "Raven, may I ask you a question?" Starfire asked.
"Yeah, go for it." Raven answered.
"Do you have feelings for Robin?" Starfire asked.
Raven was silent.
"I am taking your silence as a yes then." Starfire said, starting to feel slightly angry.
"Look, Star, I may have feelings for him but he is yours so I would not act upon them." Raven said.
"I shall hope not! Robin is mine Raven and he shall always be. Robin does not like you but likes me. If you are my friend then you shall get rid of these feelings for him!" Starfire said standing up.
"I can't. I can't just get rid of them. They've been in me for too long." Raven said starting to get annoyed that Starfire would say such things.
"Well then, I guess that we can no longer be friends. Robin loves me Raven. Not you and he never will love you." Starfire got up and left Raven's room. Raven was left feeling hurt and angry. She knew Robin would never love her but did Starfire have to say it out loud! She knew Starfire would always be the one Robin ran to and protected. She only wished that could be her.
Next chapter : Starfire goes to extreme lengths to make sure that only she has Robin and that Raven will have no chance!
