(Sorry for the late update, and the short one at that. I have been really busy, so sorry all. Break is coming up, so expect a lot more writing soon. Enjoy!)

Chapter 9:

It was early morning, and Beast Boy was just waking up. He was strangely pushed over to one side of the bed, and feeling a little uncomfortable. He rolled over, and pulled the covers toward him…to suddenly find himself face to face with Raven. His eyes widened.

"Umm, Raven?" he gasped out, very quietly. Raven just nuzzled under the covers, and rolled a bit closer.

Beast Boy's face went red, even redder than blood. He'd never been closer to a girl, and as much as he liked Raven, he felt it a little wrong to be feeling this at this exact moment. He gave her another small nudge, trying to wake her. Finally, he just decided to let her sleep, and he would go back to sleep on the couch.

He stood up, and headed for the door. The sun was barely rising, and the room was dark, causing him to trip over the newly placed dresser. He fell into a pile of clothes that were in the corner after the dresser had expelled many of them in all directions, and rolled into the wall. His back hit it with a loud bang. Raven continued to sleep heavily.

"And I thought I was a heavy sleep," he laughed.

The day continued as normal for many in Jump City. The police were busy as ever, minus the officers of Car 26, who had resumed their search for Raven around 9 A.M. They questioned many kids at the school, many random people on the streets, and many in Raven's own neighborhood. A few leads surfaced, but soon fizzled out. They were at a stand still. Then, they hit the street where Raven had first met Beast Boy that night not long ago. That was where their first lead came. A witness had seen her leaving the area with the Green hero Beast Boy. The officers decided to go to his house for questioning.

Terra walked down the street, talking with her friend, Jynx.

"You weren't there the past couple days. Trust me, he's fucking hot," Terra squealed.

"Really? Sounds great. A little weird he's green, but he sounds amazing. I wonder if his…size can be changed without becoming an animal," she said, in thought.

"You know how sick that sounds…but definitely something of interest," she smiled. "We'll have him in the palms of our hands soon, and make sure he stays away from that Raven bitch."

Jynx laughed with her, as if the most hilarious joke had been made. The two slowed to a stop, their laughter subsiding a bit. They were outside B.B.'s apartment building.

"This is it," Terra said, and smiled.

The two looked at each other, and headed for the door.
