Now you must all savor this moment and sit in a moment of silence as you realize that I have updated... AGAIN. Like, OMG. I know how much you all love this story, so without further ado, let's continue!
And a quick note to those who reviewed, I appreciated it. It made my day to see that some of my fellow fans hadn't given up on me. So thank you!
Chapter 11: Revealing Feelings
"Oh Robin, my Robin! Isn't this movie just great!" Kitten exclaimed, giving the poor boy wonder a suffocating hug. After a... serious discussion, "The Notebook" ended up being the chosen movie. Robin didn't pay attention, he was always on guard of Kitten. He refused to watch it, he wanted to save the plot and time to watch with Starfire.
"It's..." He started, giving a long breath because the lack of oxygen was getting to his head, "lovely."
"Lovely is your description for me! NOT THE MOVIE!" She snarled, pausing it and grabbing him once more by the collar. "Which do you like more? The movie... or ME."
Robin knew that if he told what he really thought of her, his butt was going to get a whipping. He was still scarred for life from what she did earlier. Never before had he suffered such a lousy kiss. A forced one, too. Purely nasty, and gross. Yet Kitten said she'd cherish it for life...
"Truthfully..." He began, giving her a wary glance.
"Yes?"
"You're an equivalent to a female dog."
The hated silence followed as his words slowly trickled into the blonde's thick head.
"You son of a..." She raged, and threw him against the wall. Once more, the screen blacked out.
"I don't think Robbie-Poo is having that much fun, my dear fans!" George laughed. "Well, let's see how Starfire and green blob are doing!" The screen now supplied a full screen picture of a distraught looking Starfire and a deflated Glgrdsklechhh. Things were not going on well, as their expressions clearly pointed out.
"Oh, Glgrdsklechhh, I am sorry, but I do not feel that way about you." Starfire gave a sad sigh, feeling really bad that her words were stinging the emotional blob of green goo. It gave a blubber which counted as its own sigh, and its flabbiness drooped.
"However, that does not mean that we cannot have a good time together! Would you desire to play the game of video with me?"
He stared at her quizzically.
"You have not experienced the joy of playing or watching? Come, come with me!" She grabbed what she thought was his arm and pulled, and his arm stretched out. She didn't notice that is was expanding and stretching, and merrily whistled an innocent tune as she walked into the recreation room. It soon came upon her that it was getting increasingly harder to walk.
"Glgrd-?" She started, but gave out a yell as the goo did a snap effect and she went sailing through the air back to where she started. She realized how fast she was to impacting into Glgrdsklechhh.
"Eeek!" She crashed into the alien... without a pain. She felt like she landed on a soft pillow, and opened an eye. She nearly fainted as she realized she was IN Glgrdsklechhh. And he didn't seem to notice, because though he was almost see-through, he couldn't look down at himself. Thus, Starfire was going to be encaged within him for the next couple of hours...
The screen fizzled and crackled slightly.
"I don't think you want to see what happens next." George stated, turning slightly green, "so, let's find something else to play with..." His turned his gaze to the three remaining titans. They all raised their eyebrows simultaneously at his wandering eyes.
"You know, I'm in the mood for another sappy request..." He looked at the crowd. "Any good ideas?" Everyone stared and gave glances at one another.
"Well... We could have Cyborg serenade to a certain pink head..." The voice trailed off.
"Alas, that is a brilliant idea! Which magnificent author suggested that?"
"shadow929."
"That is marvelous! Come up here, shadow, so you can give us a bow!" While the chosen author made his/her (I do need gender, lol) to the stage, a purple vortex appeared above the stage.
"WHAT THE! Gizmo, I'll KILL you!" It was the voice of the sorceress, Jinx. She fell through the portal and landed with a crash on the floor. She blinked out her dizziness and stared at her surroundings.
"Hey, I remember this... Sumthin' like... Trebley, or Tribble..." She muttered, staring around.
"First, its Trebbles, not Tribble, second, welcome to the show!"
"I am never going to allow Gizmo to get upgrade my computer again.." She murmured, still not listening to George.
"Thirdly, if you don't listen to me, you'll do more than be victim of our excellent performer."
"Huh? Who?" She then noticed the people standing behind the podiums, looking bored and expressionless. "The Teen Titans? Bwuahahahhahahhahaha! Priceless!" She started to cry, laughing so hard. She gasped, "No wonder we always come across the loser Titan wannabe's these days..." She was referring to the Titans East.
"Now is not the time, or I will personally request Trekker to do something which you will regret forever." George said as the portal closed.
"You don't have the right to do anything that will make me mad." Jinx stated, sticking out her tongue.
"If you insist... But right now, a request has been made, and will be done." George's eyes sparkled, fire literally crackling on the pupils that stared at her.
"..."
"Cyborg, would you do the honors?" The mechanical teen just blinked at everyone as they supported him by yelling and cheering. Looking over to his fellow team mates, they just gave back an emotionless face, but something within Raven's stare told him to go. Did she want him to feel joy, love? It was hard to tell, as she was usually the one that stood against it...
He walked over to Jinx, and like a gentleman, held out his hand. She gave a small blush and took it, and he gently lifted her up until she was on her own feet once more.
"May I delight you in singing a song?" He asked politely, giving her a smile. "And a dance?" She flushed a deep red as memories of the HIVE ballroom dance with him came to mind.
"I will accept with my deepest honors." She replied, and gave a warm smile in return to his. They began to gently sway with each other, the stage becoming their dance floor. Cyborg quickly thought of a song that Jinx might like and began slowly, testing the water,
"Dreamin', dreamin', dreamin'...
You are my knight in armor,
The hero of my heart..."
Jinx flushed the color of her hair as she realized what song it was. The Declaration of Love... originally sang by Celine Dion. It was one of her personal favorites, though she had never admitted it to anyone. And now, her love was singing it to her...
"A true world go up,
The river is getting deep, believe it,
You're all these arms of mine wanna hold..."
Cyborg said every word softly, his voice matching the part perfectly. He felt like he was in heaven, singing to the one that he had fallen for at the HIVE academy. He didn't know if he had ever felt happier...
"All wrapped up with a river Baby,
I'm giving you this heart of gold..."
He slightly drifted with the last sentence, preparing for the chorus. Surprised he was when another soft voice filled the air, demanding attention with its soft tones and words. It joined him together for singing the chorus, and so beautiful that it was that it made many teary.
"So listen up--it's you I trust
I feel magic ev'ry time that we touch,
I pledge allegiance to the heavens above
Tonight to you, baby,
I make my declaration of love."
Raven and Beast Boy watched on with a tiny hint of surprise at how well the pair sounded together. They were both in uttermost harmony, not too loud or shrill, just perfect, and calm. The violet-haired Azarathian urged Cyborg on, feeling lost in the words herself. It reminded her of all the times with Beast Boy...
And little did she know, but it was the exact same for him.
"Just like Juliet Belonged to Romeo,
You can stay prepared that I won't be letting you go,
In the heat of the night, so right,
You taste my sweetness on your lips,
I'll make it better than you ever dreamed,
And the rest of your life will be just like this, baby..."
Though after this verse the chorus was meant to be repeated twice over, in a spur of the moment both thoughts of singing them were gone. Just like the verse he just sang, he kissed her. The one he loved, who didn't care whether he was half mechanical, different then the usual...
Jinx loved him for who he was, not what he looked like. And this was the type of person that Cyborg had dreamed of, ever since that fatal day, when that accident happened...
"Declaration of love, declaration of love...
In the heat of the night, so right,
You taste my sweetness on your lips,
I'll make it better than you ever dreamed,
And the rest of your life will be just like this, baby."
Jinx felt like she was one of the happiest girls alive. She never knew that after the Stone scenario, everything would be like this. After Cyborg's betrayal, she didn't know if she could go on. And now...
Happiness was blissful, and she would cherish this moment forever.
Cyborg finished drifting off with the chorus, and gave her a heart-warming smile. Everyone was silent and feeling the love radiate off the pair. As Cyborg had sang, they were lost in their own loving thoughts, either the love to write for their fans, or the boyfriend they had gotten from a record shopping spree last week... Whatever the case was, it fit perfectly for them all, and they cheered as Cyborg gave a deep bow and turned back to Jinx.
They clung to each other tightly for a bit, lost within the soft gaze that they gave one another.
"I'll miss you, Jinx." Cyborg whispered, knowing that their time together was nearing the end.
"This won't be the last time..." She replied softly, her pink eyes revealing her sorrow for not being able to continue with him. It was just then that the portal reopened from above and began dragging Jinx back up within it. They both gave each other a reassuring smile before the vortex flashed and disappeared. Very quietly he went to stand behind his podium, knowing he was going to relive that moment for a long time afterward.
Perhaps love wasn't all that bad. Love he had heard to be cruel, twisting one's feelings around another's fingers. But now... He felt that to be a lie, and he knew it was. But you shouldn't be thinking that while George is around, most definitely not...
The praise for shadow929 for the idea and Cyborg were clearly heard, and George, though usually hating the mushy mushy stuff, thanked shadow for the idea. It reminded him of his own true love, back in the day...
"Next, the Midnight Roamer has sent in an idea that also involves the thing that we're seeing a lot here, but this is going to be... well, you'll see. Midnight, would you like to openly propose your request, or shall I?"
"Whichever you prefer." was the reply.
"Alrighty then." George cleared his throat, and grabbed a fresh paper that seemed to pop out of nowhere and began to read. "Dear Trebbles, could you make Raven dress up with a bunch of five year olds (you know what this means) and marry a clam named George? And can you make Cy admit that Beast Boy is his only true love? Sincerely, MR."
Cyborg just gaped at the suggestion. He had just made it clearly obvious that he loved Jinx, and now this... These fanfiction writers were cruel, evil people. That he was sure of.
Raven found it quite a coincidence that the clam's name would be George. Besides the fact that she loathed the guy, of course. She knew that BB and Cy would refuse to do this request, because of what just recently happened. So she decided to stay put too, she would not do it of her own free will. That would of been humiliating, it would of killed her reputation. Not that it had died a long time ago anyway...
A resounding click was heard and Raven was completely helpless, now under the power of Trekker. She skipped cheerfully over to a group of 5 year olds that seemed to be waiting for her, laughing and cheering as the teenager came towards them.
"Oh, Raven! George has been worried about you!" One of them exclaimed. "He feared you would not make it to... make it to..."
"The wedding!" The other finished for him.
"He needs not fear, I will never forget my true feelings for him." She smiled at the kids that just goggled back at her. "Tell me, where is he?" A kid fished something out of his pocket.
"Here he is!" The kid threw the object into Raven's hands and ran off in the other direction, the remaining children staring confused as he went.
"What the... Oh My God, George!" Raven burst into a crying fit as she saw a large crack in "George's" back. "My poor, poor George... Here, let me heal that..." Her blue aura swept over what she thought was the wound and was oblivious and upset to why it wasn't working. She fell to her knees with him, and then looked at the other kids that looked worriedly at her. Suddenly a young girl hopped up to them, grinning contently to see Raven there.
"Raven!" She said with a squeak, "You said that you'd play dress up with my pals and I!"
"I'm sorry... I had forgotten..."
"Heehee, no worry!" With that, the girl grabbed Raven's arm and pulled, now dragging the distressed girl three times her side behind her. Raven lost her grip on George and yelled a loud dramatic "NOOOOOOOO!" as he was left behind, forever to be abused and neglected from everything around him. When Raven had been pulled into the changing room, Beast Boy stepped forward angrily and smashed the clam with his foot. Everyone gasped as they heard a terrible snap and crunch from underneath his shoe.
"You are... so cruel... Why do you request such things?" He glared at George and the audience as he said this. "Why can't you just be-" He stopped, feeling suddenly extremely lightheaded. Another whirl of a click was heard, and Cyborg came towards him.
"Oh BB, my one and only..." He muttered, and Beast Boy gave a clear look of horror realizing that this part of the request was about to start.
"No, no, no Cy... Don't do this..." Beast Boy said slowly, backing away from the approaching hybrid teen.
"Will you be my one true love?" Cyborg continued.
"You already have one." Beast Boy replied, but knew that Cy wasn't going to listen or be able to hear anything he said. Cy was lost to the power of Trekker, and everyone wanted him to suffer.
"Please, my dear Beast Boy..." At this, Cyborg knelt down on the knee next to the panicking green teen, "Will you... Marry me?"
"Snap out of it!"
"Does that mean... Yes?"
"NO!"
"Oh BB, I'm so happy! Together, we can cross the Alps and explore the land down under and go across the ocean to-"
SMACK!
"…"
"…"
"Bea...Be.. Beast Boy?" Cyborg stared at him in confusion. "Why am I kneeling down to you?"
"You were proposing to me." Was the flat answer.
"Oh man..."
They were cut out from their thoughts as Raven and the little girl skipped in together, Raven wearing clothes five times smaller than needed. It was an extremely tight fit, and many of her pale skin was revealed. Not that anyone was looking at that, though. They were looking at her attire.
Pink. Pink. And... more pink. Hello Kitty was on the shirt, and her "pants" had... Too horrible for words.
"Oh... my... god." Cyborg managed to mutter. "She's turned into the one thing I'd never thought I'd ever see."
"What's that?"
"A Barbie."
