Hello! I was utterly overjoyed to see that some people took the time to review my first ever story!
To Vandagirl who is my very first reviewer and I am exceedingly grateful to: Thank you, thank you, thank you! I will work on what you said. I am hopeful you will not be to mad with the other OOC's that you might see. I will try to keep them their normal selves, but they are singing Disney songs, so what can I do? I will work on the Cy/Raven chapter, what song do you think would be good? I am not sure and I want that one to be perfect!
To Star of the Nights who is my second reviewer and I am thankful to: Thanks so much! I love your stories!
To RavenBall who I am thrilled to have reviewed my story: Oh yes I will do that pairing for sure! (teehee that is what this one is!)
To thejedistarfiregrayson who should have reviewed this anyway…lol: Sure rub it in with the getting a new plushie….. Anyway thank you bestest friend!
To Livyliv who gave me a good idea: Thank you so much for the review! I will be sure to do that song for that pairing!
To tsukiryoushi who this next chapter is dedicated to: Thanks so much buddy!
So that was long. Anyway, here is chapter two! I hope you all enjoy. One more thing about pairings, no slashes because if I do them the people will only be friends, and if you want me to do a Star/BB pairing you must have a song to go with it, cause I thought about it and I can think of no song to go with the pairing…So anyway here is chapter two!
Pairing BB/Rae
Disclaimer: I do not own the lovely teen titans, or Disney, but now I do own a handy dandy half a pencil! Picked it up off the school's floor today, I know you are all so jealous!
Beauty and the Beast
"Please Raven!"
"No."
"Please?"
"I already told you this Beast Boy I am not teaching you how to dance. Now go away, I am trying to read." Raven snapped at the green teenager.
"But Ra-ven!" Beast Boy whined " I only know how to…you know grove on the dance floor at parties and clubs! I dunno anything about ballroom dancing especially at a fancy ball for the city. I don't want to look like a goofball!"
The cloaked girl looked up from her book and smirked "You don't need to go anywhere to look like that.".
"I know and that's why…" Beast Boy stopped "hey wait! Don't use my mind against me, you know that not fair and Robin told me not to get into a battle of wits while I am unarmed…wait! That was an insult too! Oh man."
The changing sat down and sulked on the floor. Raven got up to leave. Beast Boy noticed this and shouted after her, "Wait I thought you said you were gonna teach me how to dance!".
"No Beast Boy you asked me if I would teach you how to dance, I said no. I wouldn't even be going to this dance except the mayor it holding it for us and Robin said it would be nice if we attended. I thought it would be better to stay home, but apparently "it would be nice" means: you must go or Robin will make you do extra training." the dark girl said in all monotone, which surprised the boy out of his gourd.
'If I tried that I might die from pure boringness' he thought to himself.
"But Raven, but Raven! You are the only one who can teach me." Cried out the pointy eared teenager who had taken Ravens hand and pulled it with the last few words.
"Why don't you ask Starfire? I am sure she would love to teach you how to dance." Replied Raven blowing a strand of purple hair out of her face.
"Because…ummm…because, she probably doesn't know how either!" Beast Boy stammered. He knew the real reasons why. One Robin would pounce on him for dancing with Starfire, and two, she just wasn't Raven.
"Oh well, what makes you think I know?" Raven grunted because he still had her hand and she was trying to get it back.
"Cause you read all the books and are so sophisticated. You must know." Beast Boy said dropping her hand and snatching the book that was in the crook of her arm. "Something like that must be in here somewhere."
"Give me that!" She hissed. He had crossed the line, and she needed to meditate really bad. "I'll tell you what. Since you want to know so badly, I will teach you when we get home. How's that idea for you?" She grabbed her book back and stalked away.
"That would be great…wait a second! Raven that won't work. Come back! Hey!"
When Raven got to her room she was interrupted again with a knock on the door. "Friend Raven?" A sweet voice came to the door.
"What is it Starfire?" Raven said, already knowing who it was.
"Robin said that now would be a good time to get ready for the ball that is not a toy." Starfire said tapping her fingers together.
'I wonder how long Star asked Robin if we could start getting ready' Raven thought as she walked over to the door and slid it open so Starfire could get in. They kept the dresses in Raven's room for fear that Starfire would want to try them on before it was time to get ready. The Tamerainian was at first upset by the lack of trust, but was soon fine when Robin said that he couldn't wait to see her first when she came down the stairs. Funny how that works.
The girls worked on getting ready. Starfire's overall joy rubbed off on Raven as slipped her black dress over her body. When she was finally ready Raven looked in the mirror. 'Wow,' she thought 'I hope Beast Boy…wait what?' All the little Raven's groaned as happy whispered happy things into Raven's overall thoughts.
"Do you think that R…the boys will think I am acceptable looking?" Said Starfire as she pinned up her curly hair into a bun at the top of her head.
"Yes Starfire, I am sure Robin will think you look lovely." Raven said looking slyly over at her friend.
"Oh I am glad!" Starfire beamed, "I will not even be upset and tell you that I do not care what only Robin thinks." Starfire looked at her comrade and winked.
"Whatever." said Raven. She was pleased that Starfire trusted her with her deepest feelings. 'Starfire is smarter than we give her credit for.' Knowledge whispered in Ravens mind.
The two girls were finally ready to go. They strolled out of Raven's room their skirts swishing as they walked. As they descended the stairs, the titan boys waited at the end quirking their necks just enough to see the skirts of the girls' dresses. When the young women stood at the bottom of the stairs all three mouths on the boys dropped. Starfire wore a sleeveless lilac dress with silver stars sprinkled on the puffy skirt and a big star on the waistline. The gloves she wore snaked onto her upper arms and were white. She wore the green jewel from her breastplate on a chain around her neck. Robin jumped out of his dazed state and led her to the door whispering something in her ear. Cyborg followed the two to the car.
Raven had been standing quietly at the bottom of the stairs. She wore a black dress with dark blue sleeves flowing down to her hips. Her hair was pinned back. She wore the broach that pinned her cape back on the front of the dress. Beast Boy blinked and shook his head. He turned, rubbed his eyes and turned back. "Yes Beast Boy," said Raven "I do look like this." and she tuned to go to the car.
At the ball Robin and Starfire danced most of the songs only parting when the mayor's son asked to dance with the beauty. "That's what she is," murmured to herself, "She is the beauty in the Teen Titans. I am just the creepy one." The dark girl had been sitting at one of the many tables watching her friends dance. She had seen Cyborg with many girls there. All of them very pretty. The one she had not seen was Beast Boy. Where was the little grass stain?
"Hey Rae." mumbled the person in question.
"Hello Beast Boy. Having fun?" Raven said not looking away from the dance floor.
"No. I can't dance, so I am having a really crummy time. Plus there are no good girls out there to flirt with. Really though, I wish I could dance." Beast Boy said looking down.
To Raven's surprise he didn't sound the least bit upset at her for not teaching him to dance earlier. Then she felt a weird sense of hurt that he didn't see anyone good. Wasn't she attractive? She looked down. 'I thought we looked good.' Timid said in her mind. 'Are you kidding? We look great!' said Happy and Brave. 'He is just looking at the dance floor and we are not there.' Added Knowledge. 'Lets get out there then!' exclaimed Happy.
"Then again the girl I like isn't out there." said Beast Boy almost like he was reading her mind. "I'm afraid she will never dance."
'Terra!' shouted Hatred 'You have liked him forever and he still can't get over Terra! Lets beat him up Raven!' 'NO!' squealed Happy cuddling a little Beast Boy plusie, 'I just love him to much to do that!'
Raven held her head. 'Stop it!' she yelled to the other Ravens. They all settled and the sorceress relaxed. It was really to bad that as soon as she was at peace the mayor told everyone to leave. So the Titans packed up and moved out.
Later Raven woke up and heard someone in the tower. She walked around looking for the source. She thought about all the titans. Cyborg is charging up, that dance really took it out of him. Robin is on the roof, no doubt with Starfire. Beast Boy? No, she had no clue where the odd colored boy was. She looked in the living area.
To her surprise she saw that the tv was on a turned to PBS. She looked over the couch. "Beast Boy what are you…" She was cut off by Beast Boy's hand shooing her away.
"Shhhh…I gotta learn to dance so that maybe Raven will…" He looked up. "Ummmm…oops? Hey what are you wearing? Are those you p.j.'s?"
She looked down. Her black shirt and silky bottoms was all she wanted to put on after a long night of sitting and doing nothing. "Well, ummm, yes." the pale skinned girl said as she blushed.
"Hey they are cute. Could you wait until the commercial to make fun of me? I am trying to watch "How to Ballroom Dance 101".". He said turning back to his show. He had made her blush, and could sleep easier that night.
"Wait, is that my chicken you have there?" Raven said a sly grin on her face. "I think that Clucky has seen enough of this nonsense. I will teach you to dance now, like I promised."
"Huh?" Beast Boy said as he dropped the chicken and was pulled off the couch by Raven. "But there's no music!"
"You are creative, pretend there is music. Now put your hands here and…"
Just as the two started to waltz Robin and Starfire came in. Starfire jumped behind the wall. She motioned for Robin to do the same. "Look Robin! Is it not wonderful?" Starfire whispered to her best friend. She began to sing lightly.
"What are you doing Star?" Robin hissed.
"I do not hear music and thought this song would be perfect for the occasion. I think I was watching a movie of Disney called "The Beauty and the Beast"."
Starfire:
Tale as old as time
True as it can be
Barely even friends
Then somebody bends
Unexpectedly
"Is that Star I hear signing?" Beast Boy whispered in Raven's ear.
"I think so. Isn't that nice of her. She is a much better singer if you give her the right song."
Just a little change
Small to say the least
Both a little scared
Neither one prepared
Beauty and the Beast
"Wow Star you sing beautifully!" Robin said into Starfire's hair.
Ever just the same
Ever a surprise
Ever as before
Ever just as sure
As the sun will rise
Tale as old as time
Tune as old as song
Bittersweet and strange
Finding you can change
Learning you were wrong
Certain as the sun
Rising in the east
Tale as old as time
Song as old as rhyme
Beauty and the Beast
Tale as old as time
Song as old as rhyme
Beauty and the Beast
When the princess was done Robin was asleep at her side. Raven and Beast Boy had stopped dancing and were asleep on the couch snuggled up next to each other. "Off to bed with you now Robin." Starfire cooed.
"Not yet, I'm not sleepy." Robin yawned and snuggled into Starfire shoulder.
"I do not believe that to be true." She said and picked him up and carried him to his room.
Raven looked up. Starfire was leaving. 'Thank you Star,' she said in her head 'Beauty and the Beast…'
