Hey, guys. So you didn't beleive me when I saod it wasn't the end? Well, I told you.
Disclaimer: Will be done by Raven.
Raven: Doesn't own Teen Titans.
Me: If I did, who knows how much the show would be changed.
Raven: (suspiciously)What would you do to me?
Me: You? I don't know, probably nothing, but Robin wouldn't always wear that damn mask.
Raven: Agreed.
Me: (smirks)
I Was Lost
Ring ring ring. Damn phone. Don't people knowI don't like them to call me. Of course, part of that is my fault, I am the one who gives them my number. I look at the caller ID, and to my surprise, it says Teen Titans. I just got home a little over an hour ago, and already Robin feels the need to call me. "Hello?" I simply ask, as if I don't know it's him. "Hey, Rebecca, it's Robin." Go figure. "I'm not stupid, Dick." That's one way to tease him. "Ha, ha, very funny. Hey, look the team kinnda wants to talk to you so here's, um hold on." I can tell he set down the phone. In the background I can hear him yelling, "Who wants to talk to her first!"
"Helllo?" asks a new voice. I can tell it's Cyborg. "Hello?" I reply. "This is Cyborg." I knew it! "Hi, Cyborg, I'm Rebecca." Silence. "So ... how are you." That's so like Cyborg. "I'm fine. As I'm sure dear Robin has told you, I just got back from Wayne Manor." "Yeah, I heard you went to the movies with him. I don't know if you know since you live so far away, but Starfire's dating him. You should have seen the look on her face when he told us that he went to the movies with you." I can imagine. "I wish I could have. But I'm sure Robin's going to drag me over there sometime soon. He insists I mean you guys." In the background, I can hear Robin yelling at someone for doing something. Then, Cyborg says, "Uh, Rebecca, Robin says my times up." I say okay, and Robin comes back on. "You've got to talk to Star now." I know he can't see, but I roll my eyes.
"Hello, Robin's new Rebecca." I have to mentally laugh. 'New' friend is pretty funny. "Hello, you must be Starfire." I say in a blank monotone. I can tell Starfire is comparing me to my former self. "You sound vey much like a former friend of mine." She says. Yep. "Really?" "Yes, very much" Then it comes. What I've been fearing throughout this whole conversation. "What is your favorite color, where are you from, what is your favorite food, and do you wish to be my friend?" I sigh. "Um, black, Earth, cheesecake, um, sure."
Again, Robin comes and tells me that the next person will talk. This time, it's Beast Boy. Oh joy. "Yo, what's up?" he says. I roll my eyes. "Nothing, just talking to a git." Maybe that was a little harsh, but knowing Beast Boy, he probably didn't get it. "So, you're Rebecca?" he asks, as if he doesn't know. "Yes, and let me tell you, Beast Boy, you sure are annoying me." I can tell he's thinking about my former self. "Dude, you sound exactly like Raven!" he exclaims. "I suppose, but I clearly am not." That would be a score, if I wasn't really Raven. "Well, yeah, I guess." Thank the Lord Robin comes back on and says it's Terra's turn.
"Hi, Rebecca." She simply states "Terra." I state back. I don't know what to think of her. Yes, she betrayed and attacked us, but she also ended up saving our lives. "So, you met Robin at Wayne Manor? How's that?" Okay ... "Well, Bruce told me." I don't think I could have come up with a better excuse. "Really? Did you guys have fun?" No, that's why I gave him my number. "Yeah, I guess." Robin comes and interupts.
"I cut Terra short because I don't know if you, you know." "Thanks. To tell you the truth, I don't know. I haven't seen her in longer than the others haven't seen me, so, yeah." I stare blankly ahead at my wall. After I left Wayne Manor two years ago, I fished out a few of my pictures of the Titans. Only a select few had all of us in them. But I postered a memo board with pictures of us.Suddenly, the song A Thousand Miles comes to mind.
Making my way downtown
Walking fast
Faces passed
And I'm home bound
Staring blankly ahead
Just making my way
Making my way
Through the crowd
And I need you
And I miss you
And now I wonder...
If I could fall
Into the sky
Do you think time
Would pass me by
'Cause you know I'd walk
A thousand miles
If I could
Just see you
Tonight
"Rebecca?" Robin interupts my thoughts of him, the team, and David. "Yeah?" "When do you think you'll be able to come over?"
And I, I
Don't want to let you know
I, I
Drown in your memory
I, I
Don't want to let this go
I, I
Don't...
Making my way downtown
Walking fast
Faces passed
And I'm home bound
And I still need you
And I still miss you
And now I wonder...
"I don't know, Robin, but right now, I've got to go." I can tell he's dissapointed. But I need to mull some things over, and I can'tdo that with Robin on the phone. "Okay." he says. "Bye." we both say, and I hang up.
I plop down on my tiny little twin sizedbed. My room at Titans Tower floats across my mind. It was a big and rather comfortabale bed. I think about my room. I looked so much different that tis dump. This wreched place has only a few things that acctually reflect me. The other things are just things to take up space. Or things Anna gave me.
I sigh. I can't get A Thousand Miles out of my head. So I get off my bed, and get my mix cd, which has that song on it.
Making my way downtown
Walking fast
Faces passed
And I'm home bound
Staring blankly ahead
Just making my way
Making my way
Through the crowd
And I need you
And I miss you
And now I wonder...
If I could fall
Into the sky
Do you think time
Would pass me by
'Cause you know I'd walk
A thousand miles
If I could
Just see you
Tonight
I could go and see him tonight, if I wanted.
It's always times like these
When I think of you
And I wonder
If you ever
Think of me
'Cause everything's so wrong
And I don't belong
Living in your
Precious memories
I really don't deserve them.
'Cause I need you
And I miss you
And now I wonder...
If I could fall
Into the sky
Do you think time
Would pass me by
'Cause you know I'd walk
A thousand miles
If I could
Just see you
Tonight
And I, I
Don't want to let you know
I, I
Drown in your memory
I, I
Don't want to let this go
I, I
Don't...
I'm drowning in them, I'm way in over my head.
Making my way downtown
Walking fast
Faces passed
And I'm home bound
Where is my home?
The rest of the song plays on, and even after it stops, it contiues to play in my head.
Footnotes:
Thanks to all my reviewers, I hope you contiue to enjoy my little piece.
A Thousand Miles is copyrighted to Vanessa Carlton. It's one of my favorite songs.
So now the plot thickens. Raven is seriously thinking about going back. What will she decide? And is she thinking romanic thoughts about a certain 'Boy' Wonder? You will know in due time.
