The other Titans stood smiling, except for Speedy who rolled his eyes at all the fluffiness. Aqualad interrupted the moment accidentally. "So, where's Raven?" he asked curiously.
"Raven, decided not to join us," Robin said quietly, and Aqualad nodded.
"So how about we whip up some eats," Bee suggested and headed towards the kitchen.
"Let me assist you!" Starfire said making an attempt to follow her.
"NOOOOO!" everyone shouted, and the alien blinked.
"What we mean Starfire is why don't you relax," Aqualad said quickly, and Starfire smiled brightly and sat down on one of the couches, and soon the two small twins zoomed up and sat beside her with hearts in they're eyes, looking at her adoringly.
Robin, Aqualad and Cyborg became engaged in conversation, Bumblebee was making something in the kitchen, Starfire was giggling as the Mas and Menos entertained her, Speedy was looking bored and staring out the window, which left Terra and Beast Boy standing there awkwardly.
"Do you want to go for a walk?" he asked and wiggled his eyebrows comically.
She laughed and nodded. "Sure," she agreed, and they quietly snuck out of the house, and walked down away from the Tower and began down a small dirt road.
They were both silent and had they're heads tilted up, gazing up at the stars.
"So, how's life here? Couldn't be funner then home, could it?" Beast Boy asked.
Terra winced, and Beast Boy immediately regretted saying it. "I don't know," she said finally.
"Oh, yeah, so, um," the green titan said trying to think of a safe topic.
"How come you didn't visit?" the blond girl asked, avoiding his gaze.
"I did!" he defended. "At first I did"
"Yeah? Then what?" she asked, slightly annoyed.
"Things came up, I've been busy," he snapped and crossed his arms, but he wished he could take it back at her hurt expression. "I'm sorry," he said with a small sigh.
"Naw, it's okay, I was just lonely," she admitted sadly, and sat down on the side of the road, and Beast Boy joined her. They stayed quiet again, and Beast Boy nodded to some small stones in front of them.
"So um, what about your powers"
Terra shook her head. "I haven't tried them out yet, I'm scared Beast Boy, I can't do it"
He didn't want to pressure her into trying, so he simply nodded.
"So how are you," Terra asked him with a half shrug.
"How are we?" he asked back.
The question stunned her. "Beast Boy, I need to get my life back, then we can figure things out, maybe.
Beast Boy just stiffly nodded.
"HEY! HEY! YOU GUYS BETTER GET SOME OF THESE TACOS BEFORE THEY ARE GONE!' Cyborg shouted from the front door at them. They two got up, and silently headed back into the Tower.
Aqualad and Bumblebee were washing the dishes after the other Titans had left. Mas and Menos were asleep, curled up on the couch. Speedy was watching TV with Terra, lazily flipping through the channels. He glanced at her secretly, just like he had done when he stood by her and watched the other Titans leave. Her and Beast Boy were talking low, and then said goodbye and he had turned and left with the others. There was no hugs, no kisses. For some reason, this pleased him, and he sat up a little straighter.
Speedy looked at Terra, trying to think up something clever and witty to say about the commercial that was playing. He flipped to the music channel where it was playing some oldies.
Terra grinned, and pretended to hold a microphone and sang along. "Love me love me, say that you love me! Fool me fool me, go on and fool me"
Bumblebee and Aqualad joined in the singing from the kitchen, using a the fork and spoon they were drying as they're own microphones. "Love me love me, pretend that you love me"
"I can't care but anything but you!" Terra joked and pointed at Speedy, who blinked and blushed slightly then turned his head away.
"Girl, I think I'm going to like having you around," Bumblebee said smiling at her as she walked over, Terra returned it. "Anyways, I'm off to bed," she said and waved good night to everyone.
Aqualad nodded, and prodded the twins with his toe. "Off to bed you two,". The two twins got up and slowly walked to they're room. Aqualad looked at the remaining two. "Don't stay up too late now, goodnight," he said and turned to his room.
"'Night!" Terra called after him, and returned to the television screen. She looked at Speedy who was silent again, and coughed slightly. "So, what's shakin"
"Nothing nothing," he replied quickly, wondering why he was suddenly acting like such a doofus.
"Fun," she said and then looked back at the TV.
What was wrong with him! He was not acting smooth, not at all. He sat in silence, hoping she would get up and go to bed, but then remembered she slept on the couch. He got up, and quickly walked to his room.
"'Night," she called after him, and he froze and nodded his head, then quickly ducked into his room.
"What's wrong with you Speedy?" he asked throwing his shirt on the ground. "Lost your touch already," he muttered, then sat on the edge of his bed, and stared into darkness.
(I tried to make it longer, next chapter will begin at Titan's East then shifted back to the normal Titans, focusing on an important scene with Beast Boy and Raven, so stay tuned
Haha and the reason the chapters might seem so small to you is because I don't double space after someone speaks...think I should?)
