(Ok here goes the next chapter! Hope it's as good as ya'll expect. Lol. O
yes lemme address some questions and/or concerns.
Confession-Of-The-Night: I meant I was done with the chapter lol!! This story ain't about to be over for a while. And Speedy was in the episode where all the boys had to fight in the tournament of heroes or something like that, and he shoots arrows.
Raven The Sorceress: Took me a while to understand your review, but I think I catch the gist of what your trying to say. And I don't think there'll be any gay/les stuff in THIS story, but if u like that sorta thing you can read some of my other ones (Methods of Persuasion-Troy fic)...But I cant guarantee that there will be no Speedy/Rae Rae stuff. (
Dark Weezing: Ya lost me! Which word was odd? You used so many! Lol.
PinkFish33 and AlbinoRaven666: You are forgiven, and I no longer have anything against any of you, and I hope you find out who it was that reported your stories.
Sorry LOYAL fans for the hold up. I will make this chapter longer to make up for the delay. Let me carry on. And also there's a lot of conversation with the same character...I hope its not too confusing.)
Ch 6: Distractions
As everyone began leave for the night Raven realized how close Terra was getting with Starfire. Every minute they were whispering things to each other and giggling, they looked like 2nd grade girls at a sleep over. Raven thought they looked childish. [Maybe you're just jealous because you never had any friends. I had friends...not REAL friends. Well I have friends now. Are you sure? Yes I am sure!] Raven with out realizing it had crushed the paper cup she had in her hand.
"Are you alright?" came a voice from across the table.
Raven looked up at Speedy. He was the only one left; everyone else had gone to sleep. "I'm fine." Raven said as she took her plate to the sink and saw how full it was, and decided to wash some dishes so she could calm down.
Speedy followed her to the sink. "You wash, I dry...okay?"
Raven looked at him curiously. Was he actually trying to be nice to her..."What do you want?" she said.
"Nothing, I'm just helping you out." He took a plate from her and dried it.
"Why?" Raven asked curiously.
"Why not?" he replied waiting for her to pass him another plate to dry.
Raven sighed. "Whatever." Once they got started it was surprising how fast they finished. Raven went to reach for the soap to wash her hands, and so did Speedy. She quickly withdrew her hand and looked at him wickedly. "What was that for?"
"Sorry...what?" Speedy ignored her and continued to wash his hands. "We make a pretty good team. Look how fast we finished."
"And just what is that supposed to mean?" She asked inquisitively.
"That we work well together." He winked at her.
Raven's eyes widened. She hit him on the head hard. "Pervert." She said.
Speedy rubbed his head rapidly. "Owowow...that hurt. I was only kidding." He smiled at her through all the pain.
"I certainly hope so." Raven said to him. "Well I'm going to sleep." She turned to leave and Speedy grabbed her shoulder.
"Wait." He said and she turned to face him.
"What gives?" she said irritated.
"Nothing, you're just really pretty." Speedy said, and Raven began to blush. "Since I'm new in town and all, would you mind showing me around in the morning?"
Raven's eyes widened. Was he asking her out? When she was with Speedy she felt calm and normal. When she was around Robin or Starfire for that matter, her mind went crazy, and she did stupid things. There was something really calming and reassuring about Speedy.
"It's not a date, don't worry. I promise it's just a friend thing." He said with an ear-to-ear grin.
"Alright." Raven replied after a long moment of silence.
"Really?" He said. He was surprised that he had actually answered him and not just backhanded him. He was grateful. "So you'll go with me?"
"Don't make me change my mind." She glared at him. "And don't try anything...stupid." She smiled at him for a second then got serious again.
"Thanks." He said, and before she knew it, he had kissed her on the forehead and was gone before she could hit him.
"Fool." She said with a big smile on her face. "Why am I smiling?" She shrugged, and went up to Robin's room to get some sleep.
She opened the door, and Robin was on the couch fast asleep in the most adorable position. His head was slightly hanging off the couch and one leg was on the ground. Raven laughed at the sight, then she saw Robin shiver. She took a blanket and put it on top of him. She turned to go to bed.
"Thank you." Came Robin's voice from behind her.
Robin still had a strange effect on her, and his voice still made her shudder. She smiled to herself. [You still love him, don't you?] She continued to smile and she went into his bed. It only took moments for her to fall asleep, and when she woke up she yawned and looked around.
Robin was now completely on the floor, and the blanket was wrapped tightly around him. He didn't look very comfortable. Raven starred at him and thought maybe it would be okay if she let him sleep on the bed, after all it was his bed.
She got up and went into the bathroom, locking the door this time. As she showered she could feel her powers coming back. She whispered a small chant and the soap floated into her hands. She felt like cheering, but realized there would be no point. After she showered she wrapped a towel around her and realized she didn't have any clothes to change into. "Shit." She said realizing that she was going to have to go into her room to get some...and Speedy was in her room.
She got out of the bathroom, and tiptoed past Robin's sleeping body and out of the door. She closed the door behind her, and walked down the stairs to her room. At first she just looked at the door, then she took a deep breath and opened it slowly hoping Speedy was still asleep.
"Come back for more?" Speedy said to her as she stepped into the room.
Raven held up her fist at him, and he shut up. "Actually I came to get some clothes, as you can see."
"Yes, I can see." Speedy took off his shirt, and walked into the bathroom. "Help yourself, it is your room." He closed the bathroom door, and Raven heard the shower start.
"That went well." She thought. She went got her clothes, and decided to just change in her room instead of walking all the way back to Robin's room with only a towel to cover her.
When she was finished changing, the shower stopped, and out walked a nude Speedy. He smiled at her. She gasped, and left quickly. She made her way back to Robin's room, and once she got inside she closed the door and leaned against it.
"What happened to you? You're all red." Robin said. Apparently he had just finished showering too, because all he had on was a towel. However, at least he had a towel. Raven's gaze wavered to the towel wrapped around Robin's hips. She began to turn red again.
"I'm...going down stairs..."She said as she left the room. She had been seeing too many naked or semi naked people, and it took some getting used to. It was still strange, although she didn't mind seeing Speedy naked...and wouldn't mind if Robin's towel had accidentally dropped to the floor either. [You pervert! I can't help it.] Raven turned red again realizing her perverted thoughts.
She took a deep breath, and decided to get some breakfast. As usual, Beast Boy and Cyborg had made breakfast. Aqua Lad was helping too again. They saw her coming down and all grinned at her.
"What?" Raven said looking behind her, because she didn't think they were looking at her.
"Please try our Salmon pancakes." They all said in unison.
"...I'll take some tea, thank you."
They all frowned, and Aqua Lad got her some tea. "They don't taste as bad as they sound." He said.
"I'm sure they don't...why don't you ask Starfire when she comes. She loves that kind of stuff." Raven said slyly.
(Ok well that's what I have. The next chappie shall have more romance and such! I promise. Read and Review, and let me know who you think should be together! Feedback is good! Lol besides I write faster when I get reviews.)
