I thought I was the only one LoL! I've been majorly stressed lately so I figured writing might calm me down. Ya know get my mind off of thingz for a bit. I'm normally a positive and hyper person, but itz been kinda hard 2 even attempt that lately. I had a 26 page report due, I got 4 tests 2 do 4 homework, etc. And then today I found out my dad has been stiffing my mom on child support…which REALLY isn't good. My mom is a single mom/waitress. She can't afford 2 not get child support ya know? Meanwhile my dad workz for the government, makez 50 buckz an HOUR, and doesn't have 2 worry about taking care of children. That bastard. I hate him SO much. I kno hate is a really strong word and I shouldn't use it but I really do. I hate my dad with a passion. And I'm sure if Earth Blues Baby is reading this she's probably shaking her head in disapproval 4 such a harsh word but if he was ur dad, u would 2…OK ENUFF DEPRESSING CRAP!

CHAPTER 5
"So…this is the park." Ryan inquired, absorbing his surroundings with disinterest. He didn't see what could possibly be so fun about this 'park'. Trees and open fields…wooh. He looked over to his left where Beast Boy and Cyborg were playing catch. His shifted his gaze to a bench by a tall oak tree where Robin and Starfire seemed to be having a nice, casual, conversation. Ryan just decided to continue playing his new favorite game (A/N: Make Robin as uncomfortable as possible. 4 u people who don't remember last chapter). So, Ryan began walking in their direction, his mind full of inappropriate questions for the Boy Wonder. Then he looked over to another bench where Raven was silently reading. Ryan decided that Robin could wait.
Ryan changed his direction for Raven. (A/N: looks towards Thiswolflovesnoone)
"Hey." Nightfire said coolly as he sat beside the violet-haired beauty.
"Hi." Raven replied in her usual monotone voice.
"Anything interesting?" Nightfire asked, motioning towards the book.
"More interesting than playing catch with dumb and dumber over there."
"You're a different one Raven." He said chuckling lightly.
Raven noticeably winced, "Oh." She mumbled.
"Thank X'hal."
"W-what?" Raven asked, her interest now completely gone from her novel.
"I have not been on Earth long, but everyone's fakeness is already getting on my nerves."
"I don't follow."
"Fake smiles for the press, alias's to hide true identities, it's all so…ugh! But not you Raven. You are who you are, and no one else. I respect that. I think other Earthlings should take a page out of your book."
Raven was speechless. Did she hear him correctly? Her heart was pounding a mile a minute.
"So, you don't think I'm…creepy?"
"Creepy? No. Mysterious? Yes. And there is nothing wrong with a little mystery. In fact I find it quite charming." Ryan concluded with a sincere smile.
" I shall see you later Raven." Nightfire said as he got off the bench in search of his sister and bird boy.
"Bye." Raven whispered once he was out of earshot. A moment later, a birdbath exploded.
IN THE MEANTIME"B.B! Heads up!" Cyborg shouted as a baseball came hurling towards Beast Boy's empty skull.
Beast Boy stared into the distance, something obviously sparking his interest. Well…that is until a baseball knocked him upside the head of course.
"Oww! Dude! You could have warned me!" Beast Boy complained as he attempted to lift himself off the grass.
"I did man. Where have you been today?"
"Ummm, here…playing catch…with you?"
"No I mean you've been staring into space all afternoon. And in a particular direction too." Cyborg added with a knowing smirk.
Red seeped through Beast Boy's fur in a vibrant blush. "I-I-I don't know w-what you mean."
"B.B, you would have to be BLIND not to notice it."
"Notice what!" Beast Boy asked stubbornly.
"What do you think Sherlock? You totally like Raven."
"Well she is a loyal friend, and a valuable asset to the team."
"Yeah, I'm sure you do admire her…assets." Cy said, trying desperately not to laugh.
B.B racked his tiny brain for a good comeback. After a few moments, inspiration struck.
"Shut up." OK, so brilliance isn't the boy's strong point.
"Just ADMIT it!" Cyborg yelled in frustration.
"…Fine. I admit it. I like Raven." Beast Boy mumbled the last three words. Even though he had heard it, Cyborg still wanted to hear it louder.
"What was that?"
"I like Raven."
"Come again?"
"I LIKE RAVEN OKAY?" B.B screeched.
Cyborg laughed, "Duh."
" I mean, what's not to like? She's smart, strong, ok a little eerie, but she's also beautiful, and—"
"And getting hit on by Star's brother."
"And getting hit on by…WHAT?" BB yelled.
Cyborg simply pointed over to the bench. Soon, Nightfire got up and walked off towards Starfire and Robin. Cyborg put a hand on Best Boy's shoulder in sympathy.
"Go to her my child."
"Dude, did you just call me your child?"
"JUST GO YOU IDIOT!"
At that, BB sprinted down the field to the girl of his dreams.
CHRISTIANDCOLINCHRISTIANDCOLINCHRISTIANDCOLINUnder the old oak tree, Robin and Starfire cheerfully laughed.
" And then, one time, when I was a child of 6 in Earthen years, my brother, Galfore, and I took a weekend gorhauking trip. Which, if I understand correctly, is similar to what you Earthling's call 'fishing'. " Starfire began.
"Well, Ryan baited his hook with a Tamaranian insect called an oogledorp. Before dear Galfore could instruct him to the proper way to gorhauk, Ryan swung the pole rapidly in the air, several times, tying his body tightly around the trunk of the tree behind him. Then…" Starfire had to stop for a moment due to excessive laughter. After she contained herself, she continued.
"Then, the hook, swung around, and went through my older brother's eyelid with the oogledorp still attached!" Starfire concluded with a laugh. (A/N: That is a true story people. That REALLY happened to my brother when my parents were dating.)
" Are you serious?" Robin asked severely laughing. For some reason, a fishhook in Ryan's eyelid just warmed his heart.
Starfire nodded her crimson head violently. "Indeed. Then another time-"
"Greetings Koriand'r. Blue Jay." Nightfire interrupted, squeezing in between Star and Robin.
"Ok. WHY would my name possible be Blue Jay? I don't even wear blue!"
"…Anyways." Ryan began. " What were the two of you talking about?"
" Oh, you know, the weather, the park, oogledorp hooks." Robin said, grinning from ear to ear.
Ryan glanced at him in realization. He ran a hand through his spiky hair, looking away in embarrassment. "I see."
CHRISTIANDCOLINCHRISTIANDCOLINCHRISTIANDCOLIN"Umm, hey Rae." Beast Boy said as he sat next to the Tower's resident goth.
"Don't call me that."
"Oh, uh sorry. So, what were you and Ryan talking about?"
"Things." Raven responded, while flipping a page.
"He wasn't bothering you, was he Rae?"
She looked up from her book to give him a dirty look.
"…ven." BB quickly added.
"No, he wasn't bothering."
"Oh, ok. Just, ya know, makin' sure."
Raven arched an eyebrow in curiosity, "Since when do you care."
"Always. You're my teammate. My…friend."
Both Titans' hearts sank at the mention of the last word. Friend. That's all they were. That's all they'd ever be. Just…friends. Suddenly, Raven wasn't in the mood to read anymore.
Raven sighed and said, "So what did you really come over here for?"
"I already told you. To make sure Nightfire wasn't bothering you. He has a tendency to do that to people." BB answered, motioning towards Starfire, Robin, and Ryan.
Raven gave a small, but genuine smile. "Beast Boy, I can sense when you're lying. I'm kinda psychic remember?"
" I guess I just wanted to talk. We don't really get a lot of opportunities to that."
"True."
The two sat in a comfortable silence, as they looked at Nightfire's desperate attempts at annoying Robin. A few moments later, Beast Boy gave a light laugh and said,
"Man, they are SO obvious."
"To everyone but them." Raven chimed in.
"I know." Beast Boy said, turning to make eye contact with Raven and continued, "It's like they don't see what's right in front of their…"
Beast Boy and Raven were mere inches apart. They looked deeply into each other's eyes as violet met green. A chill crept down Raven's spine, as Beast Boy's trembling breath caressed her cheek.
"faces." Beast Boy concluded almost inaudibly.
Raven felt her heart flutter. Only two words came to mind. 'Holy shit, holy shit, holy shit.' She replayed them over and over as Beast Boy began to lean forward. That is until…
"Titans! Time to leave! It's beginning to thunder!" Cyborg called out.
The shock of the outburst was too much for Raven, and all the emotions that she was feeling were released in an instant, as the park bench began to glow an eerie black and collapsed.
Beast Boy gave a lame little laugh and said, " Heh. They uh-they don't make benches like they used to."
"Whatever." Raven said as if nothing had ever happened. She just got up and walked to the T-Car.
CHRISTIANDCOLINCHRISTIANDCOLINCHRISTIANDCOLINWELL THAT'S MY UPDATE! I had like zero inspiration for this chapter, but had TONS of inspiration for my other story "THE LEGEND CONTINUES", but I always go back and forth between these 2 story updates, cause I don't wanna like abandon one of them ya know? Yes, I am quite aware that Raven was a little OOC this chapter, but in all actuality, when Raven is involved in fluff, she pretty much HAS to be. So PLEASE don't review saying that Raven is OOC, cause I already know this. She will be A LOT more in character next chapter, because you see, her and BB—wait…..IF YOU WANNA FIND OUT JUST READ IT! And yes, I know it is short, but people have been begging for Rae/BB fluff, so HERE IT IS! Please R and R. Compliments and constructive criticism are highly welcome! FLAMES ARE NOT!
Luv Always,
Christi
