Alright y'all, I think this'll be the last one. I know it's short, originally an oneshot, but I think it had a cute story line. Am I right? Most likely not, lol. Anyways, to the traditional stuff:

Disclaimer: I do NOT own the Teen Titans, there happy?

Dedication: To xxxRavenxxx, my friend Shelby (awesome Halloween party!), and my cat Sam. These people, and animals, can get me out of my writer's block rut. ((And writer's blocks are cruel! -Sob-)))


Starfire let out a squeal that alerted half of Jump City.

"Friend Cyborg!" Starfire practically screamed, running towards the metal man, Robin a few steps behind her.

"Starfire, Robin, it's been a long time." Cyborg said, but he didn't share Starfire's enthusiasm.

"Cyborg, what is wrong? Why are you not happy to see us?" Starfire asked, sounding crushed.

"Oh no! I'm happy to see you guys, but the last time I did see you, we had a fight that almost wrecked Jump City. And you guys look so happy together and Rae and BB do to..."

"You know of Raven and Beast Boy!" Starfire yelped, spinning a few inches off the ground.

"Ya, BB is the zookeeper at Jump City Zoo and Rae is the author 'A Raven's Wing.'"

"Is she the one who wrote 'Friends to the End, The End Came to Soon'?" Robin asked, the group was walking towards the Zoo.

"Ya, she wrote it about us, but gave us new names." Cyborg said, he slid a card on a gate and it swung open with a yell of "Cyborg, DUDE!" The voice was animatronic, but sounded so real.

Starfire ran ahead, her joy still that of a small child getting candy.

"She ain't changed at all." Cyborg sighed; his eyes had dark circles under them.

A shout of excitement and surprise came from ahead. Robin broke into a run and stopped as he came around the turn in the path. His eyes opened wide in surprise as he saw Raven and Beast Boy in a heated kiss.

"Well ain't that cute." Cyborg said, startling Raven and Beast Boy apart.

"Cyborg? Robin? Starfire?" Raven's voice was suspiciously happy, her eyes alight.

"Friend Raven!" Starfire screamed, slamming into Raven with a bone crushing hug. Cyborg and Robin followed more slowly.

"Dude, no mask." Beast Boy said to Robin, the changeling's tone was high, like he was a teenager again.

"No spandex." Robin joked, smiling slightly.

"Now friends, I believe we have many a 'catching up' to do." Starfire said, happily grabbing them all and steering towards Beast Boy's house.


The cold day wore into a chilly night. The five friends spent hours swapping jokes, most aimed at Beast Boy and Raven or Starfire and Robin, and stories. Eventually they had to go home, but the knowledge that they had talked and not used force was a glowing ember in each heart.

"Raven, could you stay a minute? I need some help." Beast Boy called, he sounded so casual all the former Titans forgot about his slight attraction for Raven. Apparently, the wine that had been consumed made Raven forget too.

"Alright Beast Boy, see you guys later!" Raven called as Cyborg, Robin, and Starfire disappeared.

Raven closed the door behind her and turned to face Beast Boy.

"So Rae, we have this place all to ourselves, and did you wanna, I don't know, read some poetry?" Beast Boy asked, gently pulling Raven's coat off. The lilac tank top she wore underneath it glimmered slightly, casting sparkles over the floor.

"What do you mean? You hate poetry." Raven said, the shock draining the affects of the wine away.

"Ok, I don't really like poetry, but I love you Rae and I'll do anything for you." Beast Boy tilted Raven's head up and gently kissed her lips. Raven was so shocked; she fell backwards, falling over the couch with a scream.

"Rae! Are you ok?" Beast Boy asked, helping Raven to sit on the cushy love-seat.

"I'm fine Beast Boy, I'm really fine." Raven murmured into his chest, her tipsiness back. She reached up and pulled Beast Boy to her, pressing herself closely to him.

"Raven, I think you're a little drunk." Beast Boy said, trying to push her off.

"No, I'm fine; I've wanted to do this for too long." Raven let all restraint go and felt Beast Boy relax with her. Her hands ran along his bare chest, she had no idea how his shirt had come off,and Raven heard a glass item shatter.

"Sorry, I guess I'm not supposed to feel like I do. After all, I'm the daughter of hell." Raven pulled back, but Beast Boy grabbed her hand.

"Feel this? It's my heart," Beast Boy then put Raven's hand on her own heart," and that one is yours, you're no different Rae, you just have a few bad memories." Beast Boy held Raven close as she started to cry touched by his obvious devotion and love for her.

And so the night wore on, the changeling holding onto the empath as she clung to him.


Alright, so this is not the last chapter. I was going to make it longer, but I figured you people have waited long enough. So, ta-da! That was chapter 3! So exciting I know, please R&R, thanks.
