Disclaimer: I don't own the Teen Titans. If I did, Raven and Robin would be a couple, and Beast Boy would get beat up a lot more. Hah.

Apology: Sorry I haven't updated for while. Comp broke down. Bah.

Chapter 4: It's a Date

"Dudes. Where is Raven and Robin?" Beast Boy huffed.

"I don't know man. They're not getting their communicators." Cyborg yelled back.

"I hope our friends have not accountered any dangers on their voyage 'out'." Starfire pondered nervously. The doors opened and Robin stalked in. At the same time Raven phased through a ebony portal from thin air.

"Hey dudes! Where were you?" Beast Boy pouted.

"I was meeting up with a mentor of mine." Robin grinned. Everyone knew who that was.

"What about you, friend Raven? What wonderous earthly joys have you accomplished?" Starfire showed her white teeth.

"I was out. Do you think you could close your mouth? Your teeth are blinding me." Raven didn't even blink.

"Oh..." The redhead looked a bit crestfallen.

"Geez. Musta been some bad outing, Rae. Meet up with someone you didn't want to meet? Or did someone you kill come back to life?" Beast Boy cackled but came to an abrupt stop when he realized nobody else was laughing.

"I don't know. I need to think. Alone." She quickly raced through the double doors and the rest of the Titans blinked after her.

"Okay. What's wrong with her? Thought she was in a bad mood because of that blinding crack, but maybe she's in a good mood. She replied to my joke. I can't stress how important that is! She didn't even attack me!" He waved his arms hysterically.

He was silenced with a glare, but what he said rang true. What was it that made her so fluxuated with her emotions? Cyborg pondered then realized something.

"I'll be right back."


"Raven." She did not reply. Of course she didn't. It was a miracle if she ever did. He sighed, and knocked again.

"Rae. I know what happened." The door whooshed open. Her eyes glared from under her dark hood and a curious shiver ran down his cybernetic back, if that was possible.

"What?" He gulped.

"The device. That's what you were using, right? So you could be normal." She said nothing, and continued to stare. Speechless, that's what she was.

"What happened tonight? What was it that's got you so...moody?" He asked. Naturally, he was curious. She glanced left to right then swiftly pulled him inside.

"It's like this..."

An hour later...

"He what! Why I oughta...!" With a wave of her hand his mouth was shut and his threats were muffled behind the closed lips.

"I know. That's why I...was feeling so...weird..." The power was gone and he gaped at her. She was blushing.

"I...I...have a date with him tomorrow night." She finished her sentence quickly and without much emotion.

"You...him...you...ahh..." He blubbered like a fish. A date. Raven. A date. Raven. It wasn't processing too well. His brain was saying, 'No. Not possible!'

"I need you to cover for me, if anything happens." She suddenly realized his silence and the fact that he was gawking at her.

"And you wont tell anyone, right?" She asked. He blankly nodded. She nodded cordially and showed him out the door. He was still floundering like seafood caught in a net but still alive.

Raven. A date. WOW.


"Hey beautiful. What do you want to do tonight?" He smiled at her. She shrugged monotoniously, as she always did.

"Movies? Mall? Nightclub?" She glared at him, making his grin even wider.

"Look, you're the one who asked me out, dickhead. I thought you had this planned." He laughed and kissed her hand gently.

"I did, darling, but when I saw you I forgot everything." She rolled her eyes and shook her head.

"Cheesy. Did you take classes?" He casually wrapped his arm around her shoulder and walked a jaunty gait, towards his car, all the while singing.

"Jingle Bells, Batman smells, Robin laid an egg...Batmobile lost its wheel and Joker does balle---ET! Jingle Bells, Batman smells, Robin laid an egg..."

"You retard!" She smacked him but soon she sang along with him, like two drunks in the lot.

Maybe this was meant to be, maybe this is right...
