Okay, I was planning on making the last chapter all about the prom, but it didn't work out that way. So, I decided to make it two parts. I'm soooo sorry I took awhile for the update again! I'll try to update the next chapter much sooner, though. I've been sick and blah, blah, blah, blah blah! So, I'll stop my rambling and do the disclaimer.

Disclaimer: I don't own Teen Titans or anything else in this chapter.

The Prom, Victor and Karen

"Jen, could you give us a second?" Victor asked quietly, looking her in the eye. Jennifer quickly nodded and walked away, hoping she could find Tara.

Karen's back was still facing Victor. "What do you want?" She asked more coldly than she had wanted. Victor's kind expression didn't change as he turned her around so she was facing him. He could see tears slowly welling up in her chocolate colored eyes.

"What's wrong?" Victor asked in a brotherly tone, hoping he didn't hurt her in any way. He gently put his hand on her petite shoulder, but she fiercely slapped it away. Victor looked surprised for a split second but then he looked concerned.

"Karen, please talk to me." Victor begged, his eyes pleading. Karen sighed in defeat and lightly smiled. 'Maybe he could understand.' Karen thought hopefully.

"Well, there's this...guy." Karen paused and glanced at Victor, who nodded, gesturing for her to continue. "And I really like him. But he already has a girlfriend." Karen finished, emphasizing the word 'really'. Victor nodded.

"Then you should tell him how you feel." Victor said, kinda embarrassed he was talking about this stuff. Karen giggled at his face and shook her head.

"I can't. He's a close friend and I don't want to ruin our friendship." She briefly said, hoping he wouldn't find out it was him she liked.

"Rich took that chance." He pointed out, quickly glancing at the couple in a deep conversation.

"Yeah, but Kori wasn't going out with anyone." Karen responded, smirking as Victor rubbed the back of his neck.

"So?" Victor said lamely and Karen rolled her eyes.

"Anyway, who do ya like?" Victor asked, completely unaware it was him. Karen stared at him hard for a couple of seconds.

"You don't wanna know." She muttered.

"Uh, yeah, I do." Victor replied way more loudly than Karen. She opened her mouth to say something back, but Jen just had to interrupt.

"Vic, do you know where Tara is?" Jen asked, knowing she interrupted their conversation. She shot Karen a dirty look when Victor wasn't looking. If he wasn't there, Karen would've told that stupid little bitch off.

"With Garfield." Victor answered slowly, making Jen feel stupid she had asked him that. Karen had to cough to cover up her giggles, and luckily no one noticed her strange behavior. Jen trotted off to find Tara, hoping she ruined Karen and Vic's moment.

Dick and Kori

"Do you know where Gar is?" Kori asked, looking around for her vegetarian friend.

"He's with the anorexic blonde." Richard replied coldly, clearly mad at her for some odd reason. Kori turned back to him.

"Be nice." She scolded, continuing her search for Garfield. "Why don't you like her, anyway?" She continued, determined to get answers. Dick sighed.

"Well, before you moved here, in seventh grade, Garfield and Tara were going out. They seemed like the perfect couple and everyone else in the school was envious of their relationship. It ended up Tara was only using him to get our secrets for the popular group. They told the whole school and Garfield felt ashamed. We eventually found out that Tara was with a few other guys at that time. I just don't wanna see him be hurt like that again." Richard explained, remembering those days like it was yesterday.

"Oh, I see. Poor Gar. Have you...sensed...something going on...between Gar and...Rachel?" Kori spoke softly. Dick looked confused at first, but then it hit him what she meant.

"Hell yeah! But Rachel's just too stubborn to admit she likes him. And Garfield is just too stupid to realize he does like her." Dick exclaimed, laughing a little.

"We should hook them up. I'll talk to Rachel and you can talk to Gar. But, do it when we're on IM." Kori added, planning everything in her head.

"How do I end up with such a smart girlfriend?" Dick asked playfully.

"I don't know, I guess you got lucky." Kori responded with the same playfulness in her voice. Dick pulled her in for a deep, passionate kiss and Kori happily responded to it.

Gar and Tara

Garfield and Tara were currently slow dancing to a soft and romantic song that the DJ had played. The song was almost over, and Tara was silently praying that the DJ, who they found out was Josh Smith, would play another slow song. The song finally ended after five long minutes, and Garfield broke away from Tara, maybe a little too hastily. The next song that Josh put on was a more faster song that was on the hit list. Garfield gently grabbed Tara's hand and led her over to the punch bowl for a nice and quiet conversation.

"So...you don't have any other boyfriends, right?" Gar asked, with a playful tone. Although you could hear a hint of sadness and anger. Tara let out a few giggles before shaking her head.

"Of course not! Why would I?" Tara responded, looking at the dance floor and biting her lip.

"Who are you looking for?" Garfield asked, following her eyes to find nothing. Tara snapped back to reality and smiled.

"Oh, just Corrinna. I'm trying to avoid her." Tara informed in a hushed voice. Garfield nodded, also hoping that Corrinna didn't spot them.

"Does she even have a date?" Garfield asked, knowing she probably did. He quickly glanced towards the entrance and saw a tiny bit of a pink limo. After he saw the limo, he squinted towards the limo, trying to find out who was in it.

"It's Corrinna and her date." Tara said through gritted teeth. Who else in school would have a large hot pink limo? Tara also looked at the limo, curious to see who Corrinna dragged along with her this time.

The hot pink limo doors opened, and Corrinna stood looking more ugly than usual. She had on a long hot pink dress; the shade was blinding, and really big high heels. It was clear that she had gone over the edge with the make-up, and Gar was surprised that she didn't look like a clown. Her date came out after her. Wally West; new kid and already on the track team. He was supposedly the fastest runner in school.

"Wally West." Garfield said, noticing the frown placed on the runner's face.

"He seems upset. Just like all of her dates." Tara murmured, pulling him with her to "greet" Wally and 'Kitten'; Corrinna's new nickname. Garfield chuckled and let her pull him, feeling as though he should be with someone else instead of Tara.

Karen and Victor

"So, uh...where were we before we were interrupted?" Victor asked sheepishly, rubbing the back of his neck with his large hand.

"I was, uh, gonna tell you who I...liked..." Karen replied softly, looking Victor in the eye.

"Oh! So...who?" He asked stupidly, curiously peering at her.

"You have to promise that ya won't freak out and that you won't hate me forever, kay?" Karen said, while biting her lip nervously.

"Promise." Vic said smiling. Karen took a step closer to him.

"Well..." She trailed off, moving even closer to his muscular frame. She got so close that she could feel his warmth breath tickling her cheek. She looked him straight in the eye again and closed the gap in between them. Victor was surprised at first, with his eyes wide, but then he relaxed and kissed back with as much fire and passion as she was. It was like heaven, Vic never knew someone could kiss so good. Karen slowly pulled away, gasping for breath.

"Sorry." She muttered lamely, still catching her breath. Vic let out a laugh and pulled a strand of hair out of her face.

"Don't be." He whispered back, gazing into her chocolate-colored eyes. Jen was going to kill him; no doubt about it.

Dick and Kori

"I'm bored! Can we go home?" Kori whined, sitting in a chair next to and aggravated Richard.

"In a lil bit." Dick responded, leaning back in his chair until he was sure he would fall out.

"But I wanna go now!" Kori continued, laughing at the way she sounded. Dick rolled his eyes and sighed in defeat.

"Fine! Ruin my night, why don't cha?" He joked, getting out of his chair and pulling Kori's out for her.

"Why thank you, Master Grayson." Kori said in a horrible British accent.

"Hey! Don't make fun of Alfred!" Dick scolded, lightly hitting her shoulder.

"Don't hit a girl, you meanie!" Kori replied quietly, doing the puppy dog put. Richard just laughed and helped her up.

"Don't make fun of Alfred." Dick repeated, leading her towards Rachel.

"What?" Rachel snapped, looking at Dick and Kori in an annoyed way.

"Me and Kori are leaving. Are you ready?" Dick asked, remembering he rode her there. Rachel nodded.

"Yeah, but I think Karen got a little too comfortable." She pointed out, making her way towards the limo. She was right; Karen was currently in a...comfortable...position with Victor at the moment and didn't look like she wanted to be interrupted.

"I'll have Gar tell her we left whenever she's off Vic." Dick sighed to himself and took out his cell to call Garfield.

"I'll be in the limo with Rachel." Kori said softly, following Rachel.

Gar and Tara

"Gar, can we go home in a half an hour?" Tara whined, almost like Kori had. Gar nodded.

"Yeah, sure whatever you say." Garfield yawned out of boredom.

"Don't get tired on me now!" Tara exclaimed in his ear, hoping to wake him up.

"Sorry." He muttered, pulling out his phone.

"Hello?" He said into the receiver.

"Oh, yeah, I'll tell her."

"Alright, bye." Garfield hung up his phone and swiftly put it back into his pocket.

"Who was that?" Tara asked curiously.

"Richard. He said that him, Kori, and Rachel left and to tell Karen when she's a little less comfortable." Gar told her, glancing over at Karen as he said her name. Tara followed his gaze and all she could say was:

"Oh."

Jen

Jen was sitting in one of the many chairs near the dance floor watching her boyfriend make-out with Karen Beecher. Jen looked at the dance floor and saw Corrinna dancing with...some guy. 'He's pretty cute. Wonder who he is...' Jen thought to herself, eyeing Wally like a vulture.

"Guess I'll go and introduce myself." Jen said to herself, making her way over to the dancing Wally West and Corrinna Moth.

Gar and Tara

"C'mon, let's go interrupt Karen and Vic." Garfield said, a smile playing on his lips. Tara returned the smile and nodded.

"Let's go." She agreed, getting up out of her chair and dragging Gar along. Gar gently removed his wrist from her grip and flashed her a smile before walking towards Karen and Victor again.

"Karen, Vic! We got some news for ya!" Garfield exclaimed loudly, causing the new couple to jump apart.

"Gar! You almost gave me a heart attack!" Karen shouted, holding a hand to her heart. She looked at Victor and noticed that he looked rather...mad.

"You little grass stain." He whispered venomously, looking ready to pounce on Garfield any second.

"Vic, calm down. It's fine." Karen soothed, rubbing Victor's neck as she spoke. Vic looked a little less tense and a bit tired.

"Look, I'm sorry man." Victor apologized, directing his apology to Gar. Gar nodded.

"Yeah, it's okay. Oh! Dick, Kori, and Rachel left and they wanted me to tell you guys." Garfield stated in a professional tone.

"Okay..." Karen said, trailing off.

"And me and Tara are probably gonna leave in a few." Garfield said, glancing at Tara.

"Karen, I have to go talk to Jen and see if she needs a ride. Stay put." Victor ordered, getting up to find Jen.

"Be quick." She replied, quickly kissing him on the cheek and turning a light shade of scarlet.

"I'll try." Victor sighed, also blushing a bit.

"Well, we should be going." Tara spoke for the first time, getting a nod of approval from Garfield.

"Okay. I'll tell Vic you left. Bye guys." Karen bid them farewell with a wave which Tara and Gar gladly returned.

Jen

"Corrinna, are you going to introduce me to your date?" Jen asked Corrinna, who had briefly stopped dancing with Wally.

"Uh, fine. Jen, this is Wally West, the fastest runner in school." Corrinna reluctantly introduced, watching the two teens eye each other.

"Pleasure to meet you." Wally introduced himself, holding out his hand for Jen. She shook it.

"The pleasure is mine. Trust me." She replied, smiling as he let go of her hand. A light blush rose to Wally's cheeks as well as Jen's. Jen heard someone calling her name and turned around to find Victor yelling for her to come over there. She turned back to Wally.

"Well, I have to go. I'll see you around, Wally." Jen said, giving him a slight wave and completely ignoring Corrinna. She turned around and walked to Victor.

Victor and Jen

"What do you want?" Jen snarled at Victor.

"Do you need a ride home? Cuz I'm leaving now..." Victor trailed off, watching as Jen's expression didn't change one bit.

"Nope. I can ride with Wally and Corrinna." Jen said dreamily. Victor sighed and rolled his eyes.

"Okay. See ya around, Jen. I uh, hope we can stay friends." He said, waiting for a reply.

"Yeah, of course. You're a nice person Vic. You're just not my type, anyway." Jen said truthfully and Vic nodded.

"Bye." They both said simultaneously, causing Jen to giggle and Victor to let out a chuckle or two.

Well, that's chapter nine. I hope you liked it! I know it took soooo long for me to update, but I've been extremely busy with writers block. Hopefully, now that I get outta school tomorrow I'll be able to update more. Well, now that I'm done talking, REVIEW! LoL, only if ya want to, though.
