"...So remember to--" the end-of-the-day bell rang. "Okay, don't forget the report!"

"Raven..." Robin slipped next to her in he crowd.

"Hi Richard..." she frowned, not looking at him and continued packing her things.

He looked at her with an interesting smile. "You've never called me Richard before...Dick once or twice to make fun of me...but never Richard..."

"What?"

"Oh! Umm, I wanted to apologize for last night...I should've been the one saying sorry--"

"Go home you two!" Mr. Baylie shouted. "No flirting in my classroom!" he smiled and shooed them out.

"Goodbye Mr. Baylie," Raven said over her shoulder.

"Anyway--"

"You did nothing. I stood, I turned, I leaned. It was me...not you." she interrupted.

"Hey guys, what's up?" Terra and Beast boy ran to them in the now empty hallway.

"Nothing..." Robin brushed past them and went to his locker.

"So...you fell asleep on the couch, after watching TV...there must be something wrong," Terra smiled and nudged her with her elbow.

"I can't tell you here!" Raven giggled.

"Why not?"

"Beast boy will hear!" Raven whispered loudly.

"Hey! Since when am I not in on all the gossip?" he asked, jumping in front of them.

"Since you're a boy!" they left him there and walked on.

"You have all your stuff?" Terra asked.

"Always. It's not like anyone notices anyway. I don't have any other friends--"

"Hi Raven," a boy with dirty-blond hair and pale skin walked up to them.

"You were saying?" Terra turned and faced her demonic friend, taping her foot lazily.

"He doesn't count! He's my Latin partner!"

"Oh, gee thanks." he smiled.

"Sorry Benji...oh, this is Ter--Tara," she said.

"Hi Ter-Tara... Benji," he smiled again.

"So I've heard; bye Raven, you can tell me about the thing some other time," she winked behind Benji's back and walked away.

"Why were you gone?" he asked.

She looked at him quizzically, then remembered, "I broke my leg--oh!" she swiftly placed her hand over her mouth and stopped.

"You broke it? It looks fine to me," he glanced down at her covered ankle.

"Slipped out, sorry. I meant to say I was, um, in um..."

"Save it. I don't know what you were doing, but it's apparently your business. Count me out," he handed her a note. "Just try, even if your roommates don't approve," then he slipped away down the hall.

Raven glanced down at the folded paper. It had her name on it, and written in neat script was

Raven, we're having a party in the old underground tower, please come.

Friday night 7 PM call me for directions.

Benji

Raven smiled. He wanted her to come to a party? The only other times they had talked it was in a dead language. "He is so sweet..." she whispered to herself. But then she thought more clearly, 'Underground tower? What is that about...?'

"Who?" Robin came around the corner and saw the note. "What's that say?" he asked, not moving his eyes from it.

"Nothing. Just...goodbye--"

"Let me come with you?" he asked stepping forward.

"I'm just going to the Tower--"

"No, to the party."

"Oh...oh! You want to come? Of--of course..." she finally got out.

"Want a ride home?"

"Sure. R-cycle?"

"Always. Now that BB can drive, I don't think I have to anymore."

"He's not supposed to be able to you know," Raven pointed out, following Robin.

"His parents are dead, he got a special permission thing."

"Oh...that makes since...I guess..." they were now pulling out of the parking lot. Beast boy and Terra were long gone they guessed, so they made jokes about them and laughed all the way home. What Raven didn't know however, was that they were driving in front of a certain someone the whole way, until the final turn. Only when she slipped off of the back of the motorcycle, flew into the air, and pulled water from the ocean with her mind did she recognize the car. A red convertible. Benji.
