Wow, people actually reviewed! I just love feedback! (Makes happy squeals)
MOOgoestheCHICKEN: Yippee! You came! I know I said I would wait awhile, but that would be punishing me more than you. For all the complaining I do, I know I could never stop writing. Wow! 700 pages! That's more than I've read in.... wow, I actually COULD count that on my fingers. So, awesome for your new-found intelligence! I hope you don't get busted by your mom....if she kicks you out of the house, you could come stay with me! But you would have to sleep on the couch, wait, that's where Jax sleeps.... never mind.
Nevermore Forevermore: So what if I am trigger-happy? Until the government finds out and takes me away, it really doesn't matter. Thankies lots for the review! And BB commands your respect! Do not laugh at him!
ThessalyD: You must not read many BB&Rae fics then... Of course they would get married! Don't you think BB would grow up eventually? And when he finally did, Raven would be all over him?! So, that's how it happened. Thanks for the review!
Eilian Rhoss: Thanks!
Jos D: She wasn't living with Cy! She was just at the tower, y'know, to say hi, and they got in another fight.
Carrot The LuvMachine: Yay! Another member of the faith! You and myself are kindred spirits my friend! Join a club or a forum or two. Spread the highly misunderstood love! About the kids, I don't want to spoil it, (Like that didn't just give it away...) and Cyborg is so high-tech, he probably forgot mail even existed! I, myself, prefer to pay bills online.
VashTheStampede7123: Hey, good to see you again! Thanks for the review, and I hope you like the rest of the fic!
Okay, I think that's everyone. I want to make it clear that the story may not be like what I said in chapter 1, with the JL missing. My fanfictions seem to go in totally different directions. The last fic I wrote started out as one of the titans being a werewolf, and once the story was over, it was a trek across the galaxy! So, just try to follow the plot, and I apologize in advance.
Okay, the timeline for the story is as follows: Titans disband-2008, BB&Rae get hitched-2016, now-2028. Each of the Titans are around the age of 38.
Time for the not-so-long-awaited chapter, behold, Chapter 2! (Loaded with soybeany goodness!)

RING-RING-RING-RING...SLAM!!!!..RING-RING-RING
"Mmmm...just five more minutes?"
"I think it's the phone."
"Who would call at five in the morning?"
"Any Jackass at the office."
"Could you get it?"
RING-RING-Ri-
"It stopped."
"I guess Darren got it."
"Good for him."
"There's a friend on the phone!"
"Why did we ever teach him how to use the phone?"
"I'll go get it."
"Thanks."
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXThe phone rang multiple times before Cyborg got an answer, and he was worried that they might have moved or changed their phone number. But, everything was worth a try, especially his best friends.
"Hello, Logan residence." A boy's voice sounded over the phone. It was them!
"Hello, is, let me check..... Garfield Logan there?" he asked, holding his breath with anticipation.
"Who may I ask is calling." He asked, obviously bored and tired. He added, "At five in the morning."
"Oh, just an old friend." Cyborg answered, slapping himself for calling so early.
"Okay, hold on." He said, shuffling noises came from the other end of the phone. Cyborg could hear him yell, "There's a friend on the phone!"
"Gar can't come to the phone right now, this is Raven." The familiar voice came from the phone a few seconds later, also obviously tired.
"Hey, Raven!" he shouted happily, letting out the breath he had been holding.
"Um hello...friend. I'm sorry, who is this?" She asked suspiciously.
"It's me, Cy! Long time, no see. How have you and BB been?" He said, happiness still clogging his voice.
"Oh, hey Cyborg. Look, it's early, could you call back later, like, when the world is awake?" she asked.
"Sure, how about around nine?" He said, not against postponing the reunion.
"Bye." then the dial tone rang. She must have been more tired than he thought.
Cyborg walked over to the sofa, his head swimming with more questions than answers. Who was the kid that had answered the phone? And what had they been doing lately? And what did they do for a living? Cyborg fell asleep shortly after the third question. After all, it was five in the morning.
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
"Who was on the phone?" Beast Boy asked, half awake from his place on the bed.
"Cyborg." Raven answered, getting back into bed.
"That's nice." He said drowsily, putting his head down on the soft pillow.
A few seconds passed, the only sound being the deep breathing that sleep made one emit, and a slight snore from the man once known as Beast Boy. They lay there, going back to sleep, but in a few seconds, Gar's head shot up.
"Cyborg!?"
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
Cyborg was woken by a loud knocking at the front door. He ran up to it in an instant. Any visitor to Titans Tower was rare and greatly appreciated. And because of his.... cyborgness, he wasn't drowsy at all.
Cyborg opened the door and stood in the doorway, looking at the trio outside the tower. Raven, easily recognizable by her purple hair, had gotten taller and, if possible, even more beautiful than the last time he had seen her. (Twenty years will change a girl...) Beast Boy stood, tall and masculine, at about 6'7 a full head over Raven. His green hair fluttered in the breeze, framed by his elfish ears.
"You guys are friends with a robot!?" The young boy questioned, pointing at Cyborg's hulking form.
They had a kid with them. He looked to be about ten or eleven, and stood at about 5'2. He seemed tall for his age, tall and muscled, like he worked out. His hair was deep purple, shiny and gelled in traditional Robin-fashion. His eyes stood out from his tan skin, a deep emerald color. In fact, both Raven and Beast Boy had tanned skin. Wasn't Beast Boy's skin green?
"Dude! What happened t-"Cyborg started, confused by his friends sudden new skin tone.
"We'll explain everything, but, could we come in first?" Beast Boy asked, letting himself in.
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
Soon, all four of them were seated in the living room, which had been cleaned so that pieces of TV didn't litter the floor. Cyborg bombarded them with questions while the boy sat quietly, taking a sudden interest in his shoes.
"What's up with your skin?" Cyborg asked.
"We moved to Beach-side property, so-"Raven began.
"Not you, BB!" Cyborg yelled, pointing at his once-green friend.
"Oh, um, image inducer." He answered, pressing a button on his watch. Soon his skin faded back to its original green, no one in the room even flinched.
"Who's the kid?" he asked. The boys head shot up when he was mentioned, but he returned his focus to his Nikes.
"That's Darren." Beast boy said proudly, standing up and walking over to the boy. "Go ahead, show Cy your muscles!"
"Do you have to do that every time we meet someone?" Raven asked, obviously laughing. Darren's face grew red.
""He's pretty tall for his age." Cyborg said, happy with the way the conversation was going. He flexed his own muscles in comparison, but Darren's could still compare.
"God knows he didn't get it from me!" Gar replied, laughing and letting Darren sit down.
"What? You mean, He's yours?" Cyborg asked, shooting back up from the couch.
"No, we found him in a field, like superman!" Beast Boy said sarcastically. "Geez Cy, maybe if you had shown up at the wedding, we could have kept in touch. We keep in touch with Robin and Star."
"I'm sorry, but I haven't checked my mail in the last twenty years." He said humbly, motioning to the huge pile of mail on the coffee table.
"That's hilarious!" Darren shouted, finding some courage to speak up.
And the tower was filled with insane laughter as the friends caught up. It was the happiest Cyborg had been in a long time, with all of his friends laughing and joking. And, for a few seconds, he thought he might have gone back in time.
"So, do you have Robin and Star's number?" Cyborg asked, running out of discussion topics.
"Number? Cy, they aren't married." Raven said, walking out of the kitchen with three millers and a soda. (It's Miller time!)
"They're not?" He said, confused.
"But they're planning to, and maybe you can bother to show up at their wedding." Beast Boy replied, taking one of the Millers from Raven.
"Consider me R.S.V.P'ed." he said cheerily, grabbing a Miller. They talked well into the night, and the early morning, and Cyborg could have sworn he heard Star giggling beside him, but he was very VERY drunk.

It's not much, but I updated! This might just be a transition fic, between my really good fics. Don't expect this to be very good.
Have fun reviewing! Buh-bye now!
