Sorry for everyone who was hoping for another funny chapter…. This is a little more serious! But I hope you like it just the same! This is probably really bad because I wrote it in like… 10 minutes! But it'll bring you a little Christmas spirit I hope! Love you all!

What's Christmas?

Zoom into the Teen Titans' tower living room, where some loud… and rather bad and off tune singing is heard.

"'Tis the season to be jolly! Fa lalalala. lala. La. LA!" Beast Boy sang getting to an impossibly high note, as he was decorating the large tree. Raven's glass of apple cider burst on the table as the pieces were spread all over the room. Starfire screamed from where she was hanging tinsel and mistletoe. Robin raised an eyebrow and Cyborg burst out laughing. Raven rolled her eyes and picked up the pieces of glass telekinetically, depositing them in a near by trashcan.

"Beast Boy. Please do not sing anymore." She said somewhat politely in her monotone voice. Everyone laughed and agreed.

Yes, Christmas was definitely in the air. Everyone was busy decorating and planning and sitting around. Though there was something that Starfire still didn't understand: the true meaning of Christmas. She had heard about this on the many Christmas marathons that Beast Boy watched all the day's before Christmas and she was beginning to wonder what it really meant. So when she had first heard it she asked the nearest person… Beast Boy.

"What is Christmas about?" Starfire asked Beast Boy, while they were sitting in the living room together.

"It's about Santa Claus! He comes around and delivers presents!" He said without pausing, then grinned. "Yep. Christmas is the best time of the year."

Well. That was all well and good. But she knew that there was more to the story than just Santa Claus and presents. So she asked the next titan…Cyborg.

"What is Christmas really about?" Starfire asked Cyborg while he was playing videogames. He paused the game and thought about his answer.

"Well.. Most would say it's about the presents. But it's really about the Baby Jesus, he was born on Christmas a long long time ago in a manger. That's what Christmas is really about."

Starfire knew about this. Christmas was a religious holiday. But what about for people who aren't Christian… What does it mean to them?

"Friend Raven… What is Christmas really about?" Starfire asked two days before the big holiday, in the middle of their meditation. Raven opened one eye to look at Starfire and then closed it.

"Christmas, is about the spirit of giving. Getting all those presents is nice… But… there's just something about giving them that makes the year worthwhile." She said, stepping out of her normally unemotional mask and revealing one of her true feelings. "But you really are going to have to find out what it means to you. It's different for everyone." She added, slipping back into monotone.

So she knew about the presents and the tree. And she knew about the baby Jesus. And she knew about the spirit of giving. But she still didn't know what Christmas was about to her. So on Christmas eve, she asked the one person who she hadn't asked yet.

"Robin. What is Christmas really about?"

Robin thought for a moment, and looked out into the city. "It's about spending time with your family and friends and the ones you care about." He said slowly. "But you know.. You really have to find out what it means for yourself."

So she knew what it meant to everyone. From the most childish (Beast Boy) to the more serious. But she still didn't know what it meant to her. She climbed down the stairs at midnight, just as it was Christmas and looked out the large window next to the tree. She looked at the presents under the tree, and the milk and cookies Beast Boy left on the table. And the pictures of all of the titans together that Robin had placed on the mantle piece. And last, nativity scene that Cyborg had placed gently on the windowsill. She put all of these pieces together and she knew…

"This is what Christmas is really about…"
