RANDOM A/N (you can skip if you want to, but read the business A/N)
HI! Yesterday I had so much fun at the movies. My friends who are on along with all us here and some other people, went to the movies and saw Fantastic Four, it was so good. Then we went to Starbucks…I had another herbal tea there. (I will turn into Raven one of these days.)
Business A/N:
Oh. My. God. I am so sorry I have not been updating. Some things have come up, not bad things, just...I've been busy. But, I know of a few people who actually WANT me to update, so without further ado... (Ha ha, I said ado) here is the next chapter.
Oh...and to clear it up, Robin and Star ARE back together. So, no more Robin Raven stuff. HALLEHLUIAJA! Sorry for everyone who likes that pairing, but actually, if you like that pairing, you should not be reading this story. Speaking of which, here is the next chapter.
THE NEXT MORNING:
Robin, Starfire, Cyborg, and Raven were all walking down to the kitchen for breakfast. Starfire was laughing at something Robin had said, and Raven was mentally lecturing herself on what had happened with Dark Knight. Cyborg was thinking about what he wanted for breakfast. Ah...the life of the oblivious.
They walked into the kitchen, and made their separate breakfasts. Robin grabbed some cereal and coffee, while Raven grabbed a muffin, and put on some hot water, and selected the Earl Gray scented black tea. (A/N: Coincidently, that happens to be one of my favorite herbal teas. Yum! OH...right.) Star looked down at her plate of...don't ask. Cyborg cracked his knuckles. He moved like a whirlwind before grinning at his breakfast of waffles, ham, eggs, waffles, toast, bacon, waffles, oatmeal, sausage, and of course, waffles. They all grabbed their plates, and walked into the Living Room…and froze.
A stranger was in the Living room. A green haired stranger. A T-shirted, jean-clad, tan skinned, HOT stranger.
"Hey guys." said the new BB, nonchalantly. Then, "Hey Raven," more bashfully. The others said nothing. Beastboy did an anime sweat-dropped. He reached for the remote and turned off the big screen TV. Beastboy turned around, so that he was looking over the back of the sofa. No one said anything, the others just stared. Beast boy did his usual arm-behind-the-head- pose.
"Uh…guys?"
"…"
"Star?"
"…"
"Robin?"
"…"
"Cyborg? Raven?"
"…"
"Hey Raven guess what? Cyborg says that he has a crush on Bumblebee!"
"…"
"-sigh- Ok, you guys, look. Is this about the whole skin not being green anymore? Hey, its no big deal. Some guys I know down in the dermatology lab whipped up some stuff for me…and come on! I just wanted to imp-I-I mean I felt uncomfortable! Everyone her looks relatively normal, I mean, even Cyborg has the holographic ring things, to look COMPLETELY normal. Why can't I have something? Also, it's only temporary. Do you not like it? I-"
"Friend Beastboy! Your hair is not…messy!"
Beastboy anime-fainted. "Uh- yeah. Yeah, I brushed it.
The rest of the team unfroze and walked over to Beastboy.
"You should brush your hair more often," Raven remarked.
Beastboy looked at her. "Maybe…I mean it does feel soft. Want to feel?" he joked. He really did not expect her to feel it, in fact he was half ready for her to blow up at him. So, its no surprise that he was startled when her slender cool hand touched his head. He shuddered and slightly nudged into her hand. It gently massaged his scalp. HE liked the feeling, so he morphed into a cat and purred loudly. Raven sat down on the couch, picked him up, and set him on her lap.
Beastboy nudged into Raven's hand and meowed. Raven rubbed the silky hair harder. All of a sudden, her stomach growled.
"Oh, I better get to eating my breakfast."
Cat BB look pitifully up at her and mew-ed.
"Aw… It's ok! I'll come back!" BB changed back sadly. She took one look at him, ears drooping and sighed. She leaned down and kissed him on the cheek, giving him a crooked one-armed hug, holding her tea.
"I'll come back." She whispered, walking down the hall, cape flowing behind her. The door closed with a whoosh.
Beastboy touched the cheek that just before had been blessed with dark heaven on Earth, and stared at the door where Raven had been seconds before. All of a sudden, he shook his head, and glanced around to see if any of the other titans had noticed. He couldn't see them. He breathed a sigh of relief. Turning around, he was greeted by the other teens, looking suspicious and mad. BB turned chibi. (YAY! CHIBI!)
"Ok, who was that, and what did you do with the REAL Raven?"
OK, the chapter ended here, but because:
A: Its so short and no matter how hard I try, it always seems to be short;
And
B: I have not updated in SO LONG.
So, I'll keep going, for just a little bit.
It wasn't until Raven was halfway to her room that she realized she had kissed her crush. And nothing had been blown up. "What the hell is going on…" she murmured.
Suddenly, inside her head, she heard Love's voice.
"The god's have sent me, the goddess of Love, to test you. And I have finally sent off the results. So, the gods have decided that you have such a troubled life, you need as much lift as you can. So, the gods have granted you a privilege."
"Really? The goddess of Love, you say. 'Kay then , what pray tell me, is the privilege I have been granted?" Raven murmured softly. The afore-said passerby, (remember him?) might have been concerned since she appeared to be carrying a conversation with herself.
"They have decided to grant you emotions, BUT only while you are in Titan's tower. That was the most they could pass by the High Priest of Azarath, y'know."
"I have…emotions?" she whispered, a few tears escaping her amethyst eyes. She gasped, and ran down the hall to the bathroom, and looked in the mirror.
'I-I-I'm crying! And nothing is blowing up!' This made Raven cry harder. She ducked her head down, causing her hood to fall over her head. She walked out into the hallway. Cyborg was coming up the hall whistling.
"Oh, hey there Rae! What's up?"
She pushed back her hood, and he saw her over filling eyes.
"Raven? Are you ok?"
"Cyborg….I CAN FEEL!"
Cyborg was like Raven's older brother. As such, he knew how much this meant to her. He gingerly gave her a hug.
"I…am….so…happy!…" sobbed Raven. At that moment, guess who just happened to be walking by?
Beastboy was practically skipping down the hall. After all, he had been kissed. He also just came up the hall as Cyborg and Raven finished their hug. Raven turned to him, her arms still outstretched. He backed away from Cyborg.
"You! You- You and- and her? No! How? Why? HOW could you do this to me?" Turning, her ran to his room.
Rae turned to Cyborg. "What does he mean? What did I do to-" her eyes grew wide, and she gasped. She ran to Beast boy's room.
Duh Dun Duh DUN! What's she going to do? Find out if you review! Do you want a short one sometime this week, or a long one in a couple of weeks? Review and tell me.
