--Chapter III--


A/N: Hello peeps! Nothing to do so I updated… it's the usual excuse and I don't expect you to be surprised. I got school so I can't update much… But thanks for all the reviews 'cause it gave me the encouragement to continue, so here we go… Tell me if it sucks okay?

P.S. By the way… I made a mistake in chapter 1… For Raven, she doesn't have gray hair, it's purple… I'm sorry, I totally forgot… until I took a look at some of Raven's images… oh man, big boo boo… anyway what's done is done… I hope I can correct the mistake sometime later.

THANK YOU FOR THE REVIEWS! LUV YOU GUYS!

What do you guys think if I add Terra in this story? It's possible, but maybe some of you won't like it. Anyway, tell me if you guys have any suggestions. And maybe I might start a new fic… this time Robin and Starfire, what do you think? Hehehe…

Disclaimers: I don't own Teen Titans and never will.


(Cyborg's POV)

I was busy polishing my new gears when suddenly a knock sounded on my door. 'Who could that be? Could be BB playing another one of his insane crack-up jokes just to make fun of me.' I thought, screwing up my face as I stood up to answer the door.

"YES?" I practically shouted, rolling my eyes. But to my shock it was Raven.

"Uh… h-hi Raven! I didn't know it was you, I thought it was BB playing some up-to-date prank on me…" I said sheepishly, knowing that she wouldn't fall for a lame line like that.

"Cut the crap, Cyborg. I need to talk to you. Now." Raven demanded, her hood up so only the shadow of her eyes could be seen.

"Um, hehehe… I don't think that's such a good idea, Rae, 'cause ya see, I'm working on my new gears-whoah!" I blurted, almost choking out the burger I had for lunch.

I looked down at Raven, who smirked up at me. She had used a levitating power to bring me up in the air and paralyze me in one of her barriers. That was one of her favorite moves, and I knew I wouldn't want to make her upset.

"Need I ask?" she said, stressing out her powers to put my body in a stronger bind.

"Ok…ok…I get your point…" I squeaked with the only voice I had left.

She smirked and put me down. "I knew you'd see things my way." She said, lifting her hood.

"Now come on, we got some serious things to talk about."

She pulled my arm and led me all the way to the garage. "Now drive, Cyborg." She ordered, getting in the passenger seat of my "baby". It was the car I worked on the hardest and gave my real effort to make it the best car the Teen Titans ever had.

"Where do 'ya want?" I asked her.

"Anywhere. Now drive." She said quietly, and I did as she said.


It was quite a while until we were sitting on the steps outside the "Big Burger". I was delighted at the fine feast I had spread in front of me that I couldn't wait to consume it all. There were two cheeseburgers, one of my favorite soft drinks, and a cardboard box containing freshly fried French fries.

"Now what do you want to tell me?" I asked Raven as she watched me eat the meal hungrily.

She gave me a weak smile before she finally answered. "I was wondering if you could tell me who wrote this." She said simply and mysteriously, watching my reaction. I fumbled with the soft drink straw as I reached to get the folded piece of paper from her hand. I was hoping that it was something else, not the one I was expecting…

I scanned the paper quickly, glancing through all the contents of the letter. No doubt about it, it was the one I had written. I scratched my head, hoping that I would find some way to wiggle myself out of this mess.

"Um… I got no idea…" I said uncomfortably. It was not comfortable lying to Raven because she could sense it when someone was lying, and hardly anyone got through her.

She rolled her eyes and stared at me, making me uncomfortable. But before I could hand her any answer, she said, "You're lying, Cyborg." She said automatically. "I know it has to be someone who knows me. I was thinking that it was one of the Titans." She said. (A/N: Ooh, Cy, you're in big trouble now!)

"Uh… are you talking about me, Raven? 'Cause I'm pretty sure I wouldn't dream of sending you something like that." I said, not looking her straight in the eye. But she wasn't able to retort back because suddenly our communications devices blinked rapidly and announced an alert.

"Teen Titans… GO!" shouted Robin through the device. "No time for chat now, Raven! We've got to meet up with the others." I said, glad that I had an excuse.

"But you owe me an explanation later." She said flatly as she drew on her hood. TEEN TITANS GO!


(Beast Boy's POV)

"WHERE ARE THEY?" Robin said, pacing back and forth.

I was about to ask the same thing. Damn, damn, damn! Raven and Cyborg were missing. MISSING! What, did Cyborg like Raven in THAT way and somehow got married with her or something? Man, the suspense was KILLING me. BADLY…

"They should have heard the alert… but where are they?" Starfire agreed, looking from the ceiling and back to Robin.

"I didn't play a prank on them and they know it… but where are they?" I said, turning into a gorilla and banging on the floor.

"Beast Boy, don't do that, you will break the floor." Starfire said, as if she had no care in the world. I couldn't help the frustration, but I was already beginning to worry about them too. "Oh, my gosh! What if they are in deep trouble?" Starfire said, twiddling her thumbs nervously.

"Well, if that's the case, we'd better go find them!" Robin said without thinking and used his ninja training to somersault out the window.

"Wait for us, Robin!" Starfire said and she flew down as I turned into a bat and flew down too, leaving Titans Tower. I took one last look backward before I followed Robin and Starfire out… hoping for one last glance that I may see Raven and Cyborg, knowing that they were fine…

But they weren't. I sighed and reluctantly followed Robin.


(Raven's POV)

"Damn! Robin didn't even tell us where the alert is! How are we supposed to get there?" Cyborg announced frustratedly. He fumbled with the map on his arm.

"Maybe we should go to Titans Tower. Maybe it was just some kind of false alarm." I said calmly, crossing my arms.

"You know, you got a point." Cyborg flashed me a casual smile and together, we headed back to Titans Tower.

"By the way… you haven't finished your tale." I said flatly, reminding Cyborg.

"Oh, right… that." He shuffled his feet nervously. I sighed. Cyborg wasn't exactly the best man to keep secrets and I'm sure he was sort of hiding something from me, I just didn't know what. But I had ways of persuading someone.

After all, they don't call me the smooth operator for nothing.

"So… I heard BB told you something right?" I lied, wanting to know at least something.

Cyborg's sweat rolled down his neck. I could bet that he was thinking around the lines of 'How did Raven know that?' and maybe he was going to answer to me after all. "Um… BB? Telling me something? I don't… I don't think so…" he stammered.

I knew it. He WAS hiding something from me. Anyways, it won't be long until he finally blurted it out. Just a little more…

"Did Beast Boy ever tell you something about me?" I asked again calmly, waiting patiently for his answer.

He would be thinking that 'Whoah! She's psychic!' But I don't care.

"Uh… fine! Alright! I admit it! YEAH, he did…" he said slowly.

I smiled to myself in triumph. I did it.

"He… he said… that he likes you. Okay? Happy? Satisfied?" Cyborg said uneasily. "But you have to promise me you won't tell anyone that you know it. Beast Boy will completely, utterly KILL me." Cyborg said weakly.

"Alright then." I said quietly. So it was true.

"Fine, let's go back to Titans Tower. And thanks for telling me, Cyborg. I really appreciate it." I said in quiet monotone.


(Cyborg's POV)

Right. I admit it… Beast Boy will KILL me! Sooner or later it might get out that I spilled the beans on him… But I think I can trust Raven… after all, she was really good at keeping secrets. At least I think so.

So when we arrived at Titans Tower, I felt so damn guilty. "CYBORG! RAVEN!" My teammates cried. "There you are! Where have you been?" Starfire asked worriedly, an anxious look playing around her face.

"Nowhere special." Raven replied, glancing up at me. She wore a look saying, 'Don't spill.' And I had no intention to spill.

"WHERE HAVE YOU GUYS BEEN? Damn, I've been so worried about you guys ever since you disappeared to who-knows-where a while ago! I've been looking for you for ages! Dude!" Beast Boy squealed at the top of his lungs.

"Calm down, Beast Boy." Raven said, rolling her eyes.


(Beast Boy's POV)

There was just something strange going on. I feel like Cyborg and Raven have some secret… some secret I don't know. And I just couldn't bear that.

This was serious. What if Cyborg actually let my secret spill? I know he was not exactly the best secret keeper in the world, but he holds my secret. And he's practically my best friend. I hope it's safe with him, because sometimes you gotta know whom to trust. And I don't feel right. I shouldn't have done it! I shouldn't have told him! All these murmurs in my brain keep regretting it. And I feel like regretting what I did, too.

What have I done?


A/N: Hey! Sorry I had to make you wait so long for this chapter, so I tried my best… please review, okay? The romantic parts will probably come in the future chapters… THANKS FOR THE KIND, SINCERE REVIEWS! LUV YOU GUYS!
