Hello peoples,
2nd chapter up! Sorry it took a while but we had to do STAR testing. Jeeze! Who needs to know if the diagonals of a rhombus are equal or not? No one. Yeah that's who. Yes, I know. It's REALLY short but more are coming! Anyway, read and review. Tell me if you liked if the first or second chapter better.
He knew. Of course he knew. How can he ignore one small statement that meant so much?
"I love you."
It was so simple yet so complicated at the same time. And he couldn't forget about it. Every time he saw her, every time she was there with him, he had to shout it, had to release it from his bursting heart.
"I love you."
But he couldn't. She thought it was a dream. A fantasy. She had no idea.
And he hated it.
"Hey Rae, wanna listen to some music?" Raven irritatingly looked up from her book. "No."
"Aw, c'mon I made it myself."
"Ok then. Definitely not."
Robin ignored her statement and slipped the CD in the boom box. 'Bring me to life,' by Evenessence started playing.
"Robin, I thought I told you…" she stopped in mid-sentence, listened to the music, then turned back to Robin. "How did you know this was my favorite song?"
Robin shrugged. "I didn't."
Actually, he had braved though midnights parties, talked to many Goth 'friends' and went to many nightclubs to find someone who even knew what Raven's favorite song was.
Robin saw the faintest hint of red appear on her cheeks before she pulled her hood above her head. Robin went over to the table and sat down.
"I like this song too. Why didn't you tell me?"
"What?"
"That this was your favorite song."
Embarrassed, Raven looked down at the table. Finally, much to her relief, the song ended and another song started making her look up.
"Cotton-eye-Joe?" she asked in disbelief.
"Cotton-eye-Joe."
She watched him skeptically. "You sit in your room and listen to Cotton-eye-Joe?"
"Why not?" He got another look from Raven, "Why don't we dance?"
And another look. "No."
"What? You've never done the doe-si-doe?"
Raven was about to reply but Robin pulled her up and started swinging her around.
"Robin!"
Her hood flew off revealing her face and the smile she wore on it.
The music stopped and both stopped panting heavily.
"See its fun," Robin gave her one of his smiles.
"If… you ever…do that…again…I'll," Raven started between breathes.
"Next song," Robin interrupted. It was a slow one and he held out his hand.
"I…can't dance," she said almost embarrassingly.
"Sure you can. It's easy." He grabbed Raven's hand and led her into the middle of the living room.
…Barely even friends
Then somebody bends
Unexpectedly…
"Just to warn you, I have two left feet," she mumbled.
Robin laughed. "Just follow my lead."
…Just a little change
Small to say the least
Both a little scared
Neither one prepared…
Raven looked at her feet a look of concentration on her face.
"Raven."
"Hm."
"It's easier if you look up."
"Then how am I supposed to see where I step?"
He smiled. "Don't worry. Your feet aren't going anywhere. You'll know where to step."
…Bittersweet and strangeFinding your can change
Learning you were wrong…
She looked up and gave him a small smile.
"See? Easy."
Raven nodded her head in response.
"What song is this? It's…nice."
"You've never seen the movie? I should show it to you sometime."
A unusual look appeared on her face. "Thanks Robin but I can't…I…"
"Raven, is something wrong?"
The song finished and Raven pulled herself from Robin's arms.
"I have to go…"
"Why?"
"This dancing…it's…stirred some emotions. I have to go meditate."
"But Raven please, c'mon…" he reached out to grab her shoulder but she pushed his hand away.
"Robin, just trust me. I'll explain later if I can."
She turned away. A hurt look showed on Robin's face.
"Robin," she stopped but didn't turn around, "I had a wonderful time. If only you knew."
She left the room the soft swish of the door following behind her. Robin sighed.
"I do know."
A/N: Forgot something.
Disclaimer: Wait…wait…nope still don't own Teen Titans, or Bring me to life, or Beauty and the Beast (just in case you haven't noticed the last song was from Beauty and the Beast) or alas Cotton-eye-Joe. (Sob)
