"I'm gonna beat ya, ya snot-for-brains!" Gizmo yelled, his eyes staring intently at the blaring television screen, a controller in his hand.

"Yeah?" Mammoth retorted.

"Zip it!"

"You zip it!" yelled Jinx, concentrating on a clear-colored potion which was emitting spirals of steam. "This is going to take down the Titans for good!"

"Can it, ya pink-haired twit!" Gizmo yelled again, throwing his controller at her. She ducked, and in hit her ingredient bottles, which switched on the fan and knocked in a few substances, turning the potion a shimmering cerulean. She gasped, and rounded on him. "Look what you- hold on!" Jinx read the page. "That's the right color. I am such a genius." Gizmo glared at her.

She didn't notice the fact that the fan had flipped the pages back.

"Bow-wow-wow-wow, HONK your HORN, HONK your HORN!"

"Beast Boy, WILL YOU QUIT SINGING!" There was a small explosion as a lamp blew up.

"Whoops, sorry to burst your bubble, Rae, but James Taylor actually came out with a happy song! I NEED TO CELEBRATE!"

"For your information, that one's been released for several years, and DON'T CALL ME RAE!"

"Why not, Rae?"

Raven fumed silently. 'I am going to kill Robin for making my room next to that idiot's,' she thought angrily; but even though she was mad as all get-out on the surface, what was that bubble of emotion beneath it? Love...?

'SHUT UP!' she commanded herself. 'It's one in the morning and the Titans are going to KILL YOU if you wake any of them up.' Sighing, she snapped with forced patience, "If you're going to do any singing, do you mind not waking up SOME of us in the process!"

"I definitely mind, RAE," came the smart response. "You need to celebrate with me here!"

The wall separating their bedrooms burst into sudden flames, which quickly vanished to leave a red-hot Raven and a stuttering Beast Boy.

"I-I... y-- w-what HAPPENED to the WALL!" demanded Beast Boy.

"I kind of broke it down, if you haven't noticed, because of YOUR annoyance!" snapped the empath. "So I guess we're stuck rooming. You stick to your side, I stick to mine. Got it? Good."

Beast Boy grimaced. They were in for a looooong night, it looked like. "Wait a second-- how am I supposed to get DRESSED!" he burst out savagely. "And if you ruin ANY of my stuff--"

"It'll be your own fault, and the closet's perfectly roomy," said Raven sarcastically, calming down at long last (and at a rapid pace at that).

"THE CLOSET! I can't change in the CLOSET!" Beast Boy exclaimed, glaring at Raven.

"Why not? Afraid it'll mess up your reputation or something?"

"No! I don't have a closet!" Beast Boy wiggled his hands around and Raven looked, realizing he was right for once. There wasn't a closet, but clothes were messily strewn about on the floor.

"Then change in mine!" she replied, her voice high and panicky.

"If you didn't notice, Einstein, you blew yours up."

There was an embarrassed, awkward pause before Raven sighed. "Never mind that at the moment. I am SO not sleeping on the floor anymore," she said, laughing wildly and dashing into Beast Boy's bed, pulling the covers up over her head.

His eyes widened. Had Raven-- the very same emotionless, monotonous Raven of just two days ago-- GRINNED at him? Never mind smiling, she was LAUGHING! 'Time to call the press,' he thought rigidly, attempting not to gasp.

Beast Boy regained control over his senses after a few moments; "No way am I replacing your floorness!" he exclaimed, hurtling himself on top of the monkey-patterned comforter and scrambling to break her grip on them and joining in the giggling.

Five minutes later, a disheveled and groggy Robin poked his head into Beast Boy's room to yell at him for causing such a racket and felt his jaw drop to the floor when he realized that the two culprits were now fast asleep. In the same bed.

"Yo, man, why you so-" Cyborg glanced inside the room and nearly had a heart attack. "What the heck did they DO together?"

"At least they still have their clothes on," Robin muttered darkly. The sounds of a stove being turned on wafted in from the kitchen and Robin realized they'd let Starfire cook breakfast. 'Great,' he thought. 'If Raven doesn't blow up the whole tower when she wakes up, Starfire'll burn it down.' He rushed into the kitchen- and into the arms of a certain Tamaranean princess.

"Friend Robin!" said Starfire warmly, giving him one of her infamous squeezes; they broke away quickly, however, both blushing. Robin twiddled his thumbs and stared at the floor, but Starfire regained comfort in the scenario quickly. "This is a delightful morning, is it not?" Robin smiled softly and had already raised an arm to stroke her hair before reminding himself for the millionth time that they were just friends and scratched the back of his neck instead, still looking downward. Glancing up at long last, he nodded and spoke. His voice, thankfully, was still normal. "Yes, it definitely is. And guess who turned up from his honeymoon in the night?" Cyborg turned up just then, beaming from ear to ear.

"Mornin', Starfire," he said, practically as though on cue. "What's for breakfast? It'll have to be quick, I'm meeting Stephanie at her old place today... she's moving in today. Bit earlier than planned, but we got sick of the cruise and showed up here early." Cyborg flashed another grin and practically fell into one of the chairs. "Pancakes!" she replied enthusiastically, flipping one over to demonstrate. "I am trying a glorious new recipe for them that Beast Boy was showing to me! Do not worry, Cyborg," she added as the half-robot opened his mouth to protest, "they are tofu-free."

Cyborg closed his mouth as Robin said, "Speaking of Beast Boy, we should go wake him and Raven up soon, seeing that Raven's slept in way past her mental alarm clock allows her to due to... the given circumstances..." He and Cyborg shared a smirk. "What are the circumstances in question, Robin?" asked Starfire blankly. "Go and see for yourself, I'll handle the 'cakes," said Cyborg in reply as a shrill scream sounded from the hall.

Raven stirred and buried herself deeper into the warmth of the bed. What time was it? Six? Seven? She must have overslept at least an hour, her mind was sure of it... opening her eyes slowly, she gasped and shrieked as she realized where she was... in the bed and arms of one certain Beast Boy. "No. Way." she muttered, but did not throw herself out of bed just yet; as the memory of last night came flooding back to her, she cracked an evil smile of triumph and sank a bit deeper into the feather mattress, though dislodging herself from Beast Boy reluctantly. What was that foreign emotion that was rising faster and faster through the layers of her heart that made her feel so whole and content? ...Love...?

"Aww, not fair! I was hoping you'd hold out for another five minutes!" came a hauntingly familiar whisper in her ear. Raven was standing behind the debris of the wall in a matter of milliseconds. "You... don't... I'm an idiot... BEAST BOY!" she bellowed, zooming out of the vicinity without further ado.

Beast Boy frowned slightly, but did not go after her. What was that all about, anyways? Beast Boy had taken advantage of the opportunity to engage himself in a friendly fight over the bed, Raven falling asleep after ten minutes or so; Beast Boy had warned her he wouldn't give up, hadn't he?

'Hark who's talking,' he told himself fiercely. 'Last night only happened because of that stupid curse Jinx put on Rae. She must feel really relaxed in the morning, so she was able to act normally for a minute. It probably freaked her out. Nothing out of the ordinary there.'

He sighed and hugged his stuffed elephant close to his chest, breathing deeply. 'That doesn't keep it from hurting, at least a little. Just don't try anything like that in the future...' he reasoned with himself. 'Then, there won't be any confusion as a result.'

Beast Boy groaned and rolled over onto his stomach as he heard the door open. There was NO WAY that Raven could be coming back in; probably Robin or Starfire. Indeed, the latter's voice could be heard faintly from through the thick layers of comforter. "Friend Beast Boy? I heard Raven yelling from your bedroom, but she refused to tell me what was ongoing."

"Go away," he muttered, "I'm sleeping."

"You are not sleeping!" countered Starfire. There was a painful thud.

"OW! No sitting on my feet!"

"I knew that you would surely be awake!" said the alien, tossing the sheets to the floor and smiling at Beast Boy, shivering in his pajamas. "Please do tell me what occurred."

Beast Boy summed up the events in several rushed sentences and sighed, ducking back into his bed. "NOW you go away. I want to be left alone. I'm tired!" he whined, yawning authentically enough to persuade her.

The red-haired girl agreed, and left the room slightly confused. She looked around for a Titan to ask. Cyborg had already left, Beast Boy was asleep, Raven definitely wouldn't work… 'Robin!' she thought breathlessly, walking over to the masked Boy Wonder (who, at twenty-two, wasn't exactly a boy any longer) and sat down. "Friend Robin, I am… confused."

Robin whirled around and started, but relaxed quickly when he realized who and what had been spoken. "What with?" he asked quietly.

Starfire beamed, the smile lighting up her whole face. "Raven refused to tell me what was troubling her, but said something about Beast Boy. I asked him what was going on and he said that Raven had accidentally exploded her bed yesterday and they ended up sharing his after a 'friendly fight' over it, but they ended up sharing it and she then ran off upon awakening. Whatever was the matter, he did not state. Will you tell me?"

Robin's eyes widened. "Well, um, uh-" Starfire looked at him crossly and said, "I suppose you do not care about me enough to explain a simple matter to me." She got up and walked away, leaving a bewildered Robin.
