Silly Mail: Thank you!
JPElles: I know, but I was half awake.
Mr.Evil: You've got to be my favorite reviewer. I'll try to get some heart break with Raven and Robin eventually. But for now, is arguing profusely going to be okay? Because what I've got planned has a couple opportunities for great heart break. And I just got another idea. But I can't draw anything but stick figures, sorry. But the friend I said was coming home is really good at drawing, so I'll see what I can do.
Hafewolfdemon: It's dedicated to you so I hope you like it.
OceanPrincess4192: Those first two are ways to get there but you can also get there by birth canal, I went on a tour through there last week and it was a joke the driver told. But sorry, you don't get a point for knowing that the capital is Juneau, that was just to make the question harder.
Acosta pérez josé Ramiro: I'm using your suggestion in this chapter I think. But I'm not sure yet. The answer is going to be at the bottom of the page. Thanks, I'm usually not good at cliff hangers, but I got that one good. I think I'm going to try my hand at another one for this chapter.
A/N: Just so you all know, I'm probably going to change my user name soon because of reasons I don't feel like sharing. Just thought I'd give you the heads up.
Under Contract
Chapter 4: Consequences
Beast Boy got really angry. "If they're going to keep stealing the spot light then I'm going to…I'm going to leave the team!"
"No! You can't leave the team! We need you!" Pauly shouted.
"That's too bad, I'm sick of those two," he shouted pointing at Raven and Robin, "stealing all of my glory!"
"You don't have any glory!" Raven retorted.
"Oh yeah? We'll see about that, as soon as I leave the team…" Beast Boy started.
"You won't be on the show," Cyborg said.
"Good, I think we could do with out Beast Boy," Raven said.
"If I'm not wanted here that's even more reason to go!" Beast Boy exclaimed.
"Beast Boy, calm down. I'll take Raven and Robin out of the spot light and put you in it, how about that?" Pauly said.
"Alright, deal!" Beast Boy agreed.
"So you're going to stay?" Pauly asked.
"Yeah," Beast Boy said.
'They're exactly like children, give them what they want and they'll stop fussing!' Pauly thought.
"Alright, Raven and Robin, you're talk show appearance for next week is going to have to be canceled, instead, we'll send these three," Pauly said.
"Alright," Robin said, glad to have some of their spotlight appearances canceled; it meant more time with Raven.
"I'll check out some of the other things and we'll switch to these three instead. And you're not allowed to go out every night; some of them have to be spent at home." Pauly said.
"Sure, we'll sit at home and find something we can do to make reality TV gold," Raven said.
"That's my girl," Pauly said.
Starfire also wanted the spotlight, but instead of telling Pauly, she came up with her own idea. Her idea, have her and Robin become the new 'hot' couple. So that afternoon she put her plan into action.
"Friend Robin, do you want to go view a movie this evening?" Starfire asked.
"I can't, remember? I've got to stay home tonight," Robin said.
"Oh, would you like to view one here at home this evening?" Starfire inquired, sitting down on the couch very close to Robin, a little too close for his comfort.
"I think that Raven and I are going to do some more training this evening, you can join us if you like," Robin offered.
"No, I do not want to intrude on your training with friend Raven." Starfire said.
"You won't be intruding; you've just got to keep the pace up, okay?" Robin replied.
"Then yes, I will join you and friend Raven in your training," Starfire said.
"Alright then, I'll see you then, but I've got to go get in the shower, I didn't get to take one before," Robin said.
So he left Starfire sitting on the couch as he went to bathe. That night didn't go too well for Starfire. Raven and Robin were practicing their martial arts and she knew none of it resulting with her just falling every time it was her turn to do some of the kicks. She tried again to invite him to do things in the evening and every time he either had to stay home or he was going somewhere with Raven but she was welcome to join them. And every time she did her plans to split Raven and Robin up failed.
So, having Plan A fail miserably, Starfire switched to Plan B. She was going to throw herself at Robin.
The whole team went out for dinner one night to their favorite pizza place and Robin was sitting between Raven and Starfire on their side of the booth.
Robin had just said the punch line of the joke and Starfire went over the top in laughing, even though she didn't really get it because she didn't understand the humor of lawyer jokes A/N: sorry, I had to come up with something., but she draped herself over Robin as if her laughing made it impossible to sit up on her own. When she calmed down she glanced over at Raven expecting to see her looking upset like any other girl on earth would if her boyfriend was having advances made on him by any one else. But what Starfire saw was not an upset frown, but a humored smile on her face from Robin's previous joke.
Her next attempt was a little later that night, they were watching a scary movie and at the really scary part she jumped and was going to jump into Robin's lap, but Raven was already there. This whole thing went on for a couple days with Starfire making advances on Robin, him not noticing, and Raven not being mad about it.
One night before Raven and Robin went to sleep they were talking to each other.
"Have you noticed Starfire acting kind of weird for the past week or so?" Robin asked.
"Yeah, she keeps throwing herself at you; she's really bad at acting too. Like that time at the pizza place where you told a joke and she had 'uncontrollable' laughter and draped herself on you," Raven commented.
"You don't seem to upset about it, which makes me pretty surprised," Robin added.
"It's because I love you so much and I know you'd never leave me, you said so yourself, Starfire was too immature for you," Raven reminded.
"I remember that, and I'm glad you remember it too, because I would never leave you, only if I got another girl pregnant, which would never happen because that would mean I would have cheated on you," Robin informed her.
"Wow, you've got a funny way of voicing your devotion," Raven said.
"It just makes me all the more sexy, admit it," Robin said.
"Go to sleep Robin," Raven ordered.
"Yes ma'am." Robin complied.
The next couple days were pretty normal, Starfire had laid off some on her attempts to get Robin to leave Raven. Then the big finale, Starfire was sure would work, and if it didn't she was going to give up on Robin.
It was early one Saturday morning and Robin had woken up. He didn't want to wake up Raven because she was exhausted after the battle the night before. Robin slowly and quietly climbed out of bed and went up to the roof to watch the sun rise.
Robin thought he was going to be alone on the roof because the other three Titans did not usually wake up this early on their own. But he was wrong, when he opened the door he saw Starfire sitting a little bit away on the edge of the roof.
"Hey Starfire, what are you doing up this early?" Robin asked.
"I decided to come and watch the sunrise," Starfire said.
"Oh, I love watching it, that's why I come up here every morning. Usually Raven's with me but I woke up earlier then our alarm so I let her sleep and I came up here," Robin explained.
"Oh, would you like to join me on the edge?" Starfire asked.
"Yeah, sure," Robin said, sitting down next to her.
The two teens talked to each other about various things like how they liked their new life and all that sort of thing.
Mean while it was 6:30 and Raven was waking up to the buzzing alarm clock. She turned over to see why Robin hadn't stopped it yet to find that he wasn't there. She was scared for a minute that something had happened but that quickly went away when she realized he had just gone up to the roof early to watch the sun rise.
Raven took her time getting changed into her uniform and brushing her teeth and when she was ready she left her room and went down the hall way to take the stairs up to the roof.
When she got there she saw a sight she would not expect to ever see. Robin was kissing Starfire. Still shocked at the sight, Raven only gasped.
"Raven, wait, it's not what you think," Robin exclaimed chasing Raven down the stairs back inside.
"What, were you just talking with your lips pressed against each other's?" Raven asked bitterly.
"NO! She was kissing me Raven, I didn't want to but she caught me by surprise a millisecond before you opened that door!" Robin shouted.
"It's takes two to kiss Robin!" Raven said, quoting him from when they were teasing all the people on the ground in front of Titans Tower.
"Raven, I swear, I didn't want to kiss her, I don't want to kiss anybody but you. I love you Raven, not Starfire or any of the girls surrounding the tower, you! Any way, remember when I said Starfire was too immature for me? Wouldn't it be logical that if I were to cheat on you, which I would never do, I would be with someone who I wouldn't have to explain everything to?" Robin asked.
"Yes, but that's beside the point!" Raven shouted.
"Yes, she kissed me, but I didn't feel anything. When I kiss you I get a special feeling inside that makes me love you even more, if possible, and when we break the kiss my lips are tingling for more! I didn't get those feelings and sensations just now with Starfire, I love you Raven!" Robin yelled.
"Do you really mean that?" Raven asked.
"Yes, I really mean that, I would never cheat on you, ever," Robin said, as he approached Raven. "I love you too much to risk loosing you," and then he kissed her.
After they broke the kiss Raven had mixed feelings. She wasn't sure whether or not she should be mad that he thought she wouldn't be mad still or happy that he still loved her. All she knew was that she loved the way she felt while she kissed Robin.
"I love you too Robin," Raven said, deciding to be happy, and getting closer to him as he pulled her into a very loving embrace.
"Besides, if I were to cheat on you, don't you think that I would do it in a more discreet place and earlier when I know that I wouldn't have ten minutes until you woke up?" Robin asked.
"Yes, but you see, I just woke up about ten minutes ago and my brain isn't completely functioning so the first thought that I had when I saw you was that you were cheating on me and my brain didn't take any more time to think of another possible solution." Raven informed him.
"Right, I forgot, it takes about twenty minutes for you to function enough to make tea so ten minutes wouldn't be enough for you to think everything through to a reasonable answer." Robin teased her.
"Hey, thinking your boy friend's given into an equally attractive girl's advances is perfectly reasonable," Raven replied.
"Yes, I guess so, but let's not talk about that anymore, how about some tea?" Robin asked.
So Raven and Robin went down to get their usually 'breakfast' of coffee for Robin and tea for Raven. Their conversation had nothing to do with the kiss that had happened on the roof just a short time ago. Raven decided that she would deal with Starfire later, but for now she would take advantage of Robin feeling bad.
When it came time to deal with Starfire, Raven knew exactly what to say.
"Starfire, can I talk to you?" Raven asked, looking kind of sad, hoping Starfire would think that Raven and Robin had broken up, and not knowing the conversation that had had in the stairwell.
"Of course friend Raven, what do you wish to speak to me about?" Starfire asked.
"I want to talk to you about this morning, you know on the roof," Raven said. Starfire was absolutely delighted at what she thought she was going to hear.
"Yes, what about it?" Starfire asked.
"Why did you kiss Robin?" Raven asked.
"I did not kiss him, friend Robin kissed me," Starfire lied, trying to act innocent.
"That's bull shit, you kissed him and we both know it," Raven said angrily.
"I do not know what you speak of," Starfire said.
"Cut the act Starfire, it's not working," Raven demanded.
"Do you want to know why I kissed Robin?" Starfire asked, getting only a nod from an enraged Raven. "Because he loves me, but you've just tricked him to think that he loves you. I kissed him because I believed that it would shake him out of his trance and make him realize that it is I he loves, not you."
"You bitch!" Raven screamed, tackling Starfire to the ground.
They wrestled for a while until Beast Boy and Cyborg walked into the family room to play video games, found them, and split them apart. And once they calmed Raven down enough to stop her from teleporting to Starfire and starting the fight again, they questioned the origin of the fight.
"I don't think that you two are going to appear in the WWF, so why were you two fighting?" Beast Boy asked.
"Raven attacked me for a reason that I do not know so I was defending myself," Starfire lied.
"I doubt Raven tackled you for no reason, so, Raven, why did you tackle Starfire?" Cyborg asked.
"She kissed Robin and claimed it was because she thought it would wake him from a trance I supposedly put him in to make him love me," Raven said.
"Starfire, you should know better than to try to interfere with Raven and Robin's relationship. If it weren't for the fact that the press would be all over the ceremony, Raven and Robin probably would have been married by now." Cyborg said.
"No, it was perfectly reasonable. Starfire, you probably just had old feelings come back and you couldn't resist the urge," Beast Boy said in defense of the Tameranian.
"What are you talking about man?" Cyborg asked.
The two guys got into a fight over whom was right. Meanwhile, Raven jumped on Starfire again. They stopped arguing and wrestling when Robin came in to the family room and shouted; "STOP!" everyone looked up at Robin. "What's going on here?"
"Well, Raven and Starfire were fighting when we came in and then we split them up and asked them why they were fighting and then Cyborg and I started arguing about why Starfire kissed you," Beast Boy explained.
"Okay, Starfire, why did you kiss me?" Robin asked.
"I kissed you because I could not help myself. Old feelings got in the way." Starfire said.
"See, I told you!" Beast Boy said.
"Alright, now that we've heard the piece of shit lie, why don't you tell Robin the truth?" Raven asked.
"That is the truth Raven," Starfire replied.
"No it's not, and you and I know both it," Raven said bitterly
"Alright fine, I kissed Robin because I thought that if I kissed him that he would break from the trance Raven put him in to make him love her," Starfire said.
"You what?" Robin asked in disbelief.
"You have heard me correct," Starfire answered.
"What made you think that Raven would cast a spell on Robin?" Beast Boy asked.
"I thought that because there is no other way a slugnorfian gribnoff like her could have someone as wonderful as Robin fall in love with her," Starfire explained.
"I don't think I want to know what a sluggy-luggy gribby thing is," Beast Boy said.
"It is a foul create who lures other men away from people they are actually in love with," Starfire said.
"Starfire, I'm sorry to say this, and I don't mean to hurt you, but the love I have for you is the same way you would love a sister, and nothing more than that," Robin said.
"Raven's magic is at work again, because there is no way that could be true," Starfire said, tears coming to her eyes knowing that what she just said was a lie.
"I'm sorry Starfire, but it is," Robin replied. Starfire only flew off crying.
Later that week Starfire decided to move out of the Tower because she felt that she was not needed any more and that nobody liked her because of what she had called Raven, who was deeply hurt by the name, but didn't let anybody catch on to it.
After Starfire left, there was nobody to keep the cheery mode up around the tower. Everyone started arguing and all four remaining Titans became very short tempered. For about a week Robin slept on the couch because he and Raven had gotten into a fight.
Beast Boy and Cyborg no longer battled each other over what to cook for breakfast, for they were no longer speaking after the fight they got into which caused them to break their Game Station 2.
About a month after Starfire left, when the season finale of the show was nearing, Raven and Robin got into a huge argument over Robin 'being too horny.'
"Robin, I just want to read my book, okay?" Raven asked, beginning to get frustrated as Robin tried to kiss her.
"Aw, come on, I haven't gotten a kiss from you in like, three days, that's a long time. Too long, I think I might die," Robin said.
"You'll live, I just don't feel like doing any thing but reading my book," Raven said.
"Can we go out to a club tonight, it's been like a week since we went to a club," Robin asked.
"No, whenever we go to clubs I get felt up by every guy a pass and then you start groping my ass too," Raven replied.
"But that's what boy friends are supposed to do," Robin answered.
"No, boy friends are supposed to love you, care for you, and protect you. Boy friends aren't supposed to grope you or undress you with their eyes every time I see you. You've been way too horny lately, maybe you should sleep in one of the guest rooms until you cool off," Raven suggested.
"I have not been too horny lately, I've tried to kiss you just this once because it's been too long for me to stand, I didn't mean to squeeze your ass, but I wanted to make sure nobody else would touch you, and I do not undress you with me eyes every time I look at you. I get to see the real thing every night," Robin joked, trying to lighten the mood.
"Robin, that's not even funny, maybe you should go sleep in the guest room, because it's that or the couch tonight. You're not going to be allowed in our bed tonight unless you leave me alone this instant," Raven demanded, really starting to get pissed off.
"Just give me one kiss and I'll go away," Robin bartered.
"No, just go away or I'll make you sleep some where else," Raven said.
"What's wrong with you? I can't kiss you, I can't hug you. You try to get as far away from me as possible every night in bed, you don't want to do anything, and now you're about to banish me from our room?" Robin asked.
"There is nothing wrong with me; I just want to be left alone right now, okay?" Raven inquired.
"No, it's not okay, something's wrong and I know it, so just tell me!" Robin demanded.
"There is nothing wrong and if you continuing to doubt me and question me, then I'm going to have to do something drastic," Raven said, really just wanting to be left alone right now.
"Oh yeah, like what?" Robin asked.
"I'll break up with you, leave the Tower and disappear, and you'll never be able to find me," Raven said.
"No, don't Raven, you can't do that to me, just tell me what's wrong!" Robin said.
"There's nothing wrong, and leave me alone or I'm going to go upstairs, pack, move your stuff out of my room, and then lock my room up so you'll have virtually no hints as to where I'm going," Raven said.
"Fine, but you shouldn't keep things bottled up Raven, it could be very bad for you," Robin warned, seriously.
"I'm not keeping anything bottled up! I'm perfectly fine, so stop asking me what's wrong. I swear, the next time you ask I'm leaving!" Raven shouted.
"Alright, I won't ask anymore, but if you ever feel like telling me, I'll be waiting," Robin informed her.
This being the finale straw for Raven, because nothing was wrong with her, she closed her book and walked to the elevator. She took it to the fifth floor and got her suitcase and then took it to the top floor of bedrooms and started to pack her things. When she packed everything she knew she was going to need, Raven took all of Robin's stuff out of the room, walked out, and then sealed the door shut so the only person to get in there next would be her if she ever decided to come back.
"Raven, please don't leave, I didn't mean it. I don't think anything was wrong before, and I thought you were bluffing," Robin exclaimed desperately.
"Bluffing, I'll show you bluffing," Raven replied harshly as she walked by him.
"Raven wait, if there is one thing in the world, just one thing that could make you stay, I would do it. Just tell me and I'll do it," Robin begged.
"Alright, the one and only thing that you could do to make me stay is…."
