NOTE: No real action left here. I kinda just wanted a short, cute ending, so it might sound a little corny. Sorry, its sort of supposed to be... :-)

Chapter 7 – Fireworks

The next night, the Titans kicked off their celebration in the repaired Tower. After hours of nonstop partying and eating, they all sat in the kitchen, exhausted.

"This has been a wonderful evening," Starfire remarked.

"Yeah, this was a great idea," Robin agreed.

"Okay, so who wants the last piece of my tofu cake?" Beast Boy asked teasingly.

"Please, stop threatening us," Raven commented.

The others laughed quietly. Beast Boy frowned for a moment, then decided that he really wanted the cake anyway, and he wolfed it down.

"Hey, it's almost midnight!" Cyborg exclaimed. "You know what that means?"

"Oh, yes. It is time for the fireworks!" cheered Starfire.

"All right, let's go, everybody." Robin headed outside, and the other Titans followed.

But Beast Boy and Raven stayed behind for a moment. The glanced at each other and smiled. After all, nobody else had to know. They then joined the others outside.

---------------------------------------

The Titans were gathered on the shore outside the Tower. It was a beautiful night with a bright moon. Cyborg started up his fireworks machine. It was an incredible display.

Cyborg beamed with pride at his outstanding machine. Starfire leaned on Robin's shoulder dreamily. Beast Boy and Raven stood to the side.

"It's amazing, huh?" Beast Boy turned to Raven.

"Yes," she replied, "and everything else was amazing. Everything I had hoped would happen did happen." She looked up and blushed.

Just then, Beast Boy thought of the vision he saw in Raven's mind. Suddenly he realized what it was.

"Not just everything," he said with a smile.

---------------------------------------

Beast Boy took Raven to a different part of the shoreline where the others couldn't see them. He stared at her for a moment, with a gleam in his eye. Raven stared back, somewhat confused. She wasn't sure what he was up to.

The Beast Boy laid his hand on Raven's cheek, leaned forward, and kissed her.

Raven was shocked,and blushed at first. Then, she admitted that she had wanted it all along.

And as they kissed, fireworks illuminated the sky.

The end. So, did you like it? I hope you did. Please review.

I think I might want to write another Titans fanfic. Any ideas would be appreciated. Maybe another one starring BB and Raven (they're my favorite characters).
