Disclaimer: I don't own Teen Titans; but I own this story!
After fifteen minutes, Rachel and Garfield finally got to the movie theater. They had twenty minutes to buy everything and get good seats. Definitely enough time. After they got out of the car, Garfield locked it and walked inside the building with Rachel at his side. They walked up to the ticket booth where a teen who looked about sixteen was working. After waiting in a short line, Garfield bought two tickets to see Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest. After paying, the two walked the snack counter right next to it and waited in the three person line. 'Must be a slow day...' Rachel thought.
"Can I help you?" A woman that was in her early twenties and chewing gum asked.
"Yeah, one large butter popcorn, two Pepsis, and two Mike and Ikes." Garfield ordered, taking out a ten dollar bill.
"$8.57 is your total." The woman said in a bored tone, scooping popcorn into a large tub. Garfield put the money on the counter and patiently waited for the food and change. A minute or two later Garfield and Rachel had all of their food and were walking towards the theater.
"Yes!" Garfield exclaimed, "No one took our seats!" Garfield added playfully. Rachel smiled slightly and took a seat in the last row which was empty. There were about twenty-some people there and the movie started in about ten minutes, and Garfield already had to go to the bathroom.
"Rach, I have to go to the bathroom. Be right back." Garfield informed, getting up from his seat as Rachel sighed. He exited the theater and Rachel closed her amethyst eyes. How did she love that boy?
Garfield came back a couple minutes later, and gave Rachel a peck on the cheek. Rachel blushed and Garfield sat down next to her.
"I hope you washed your hands." Rachel joked, playfully hitting his arm. Garfield opened his mouth to say something, but the lights dimmed and he stayed quiet.
"Hello?"
"Hey, Karen. I'm not feeling so great... I'm about to leave to go to my doctor. Can I call you around nine to come pick me up at my place? I still want to see Richard tonight, and I'm sure you do, too." Kori explained, walking down her stairway.
"Oh, yeah sure. I hope ya feel better, girl!" Karen said cheerfully. Kori giggled.
"Thanks. Well, if I don't get going I'm gonna be late. Talk to ya later!" Kori said, hanging up her phone and slipping her feet into silver flip-flops. She grabbed her car keys and jumped into her convertible, blasting the radio and making her way to the doctor's office. 'I hope I don't throw up on my way there...' Kori thought, trailing off into deep thought.
The doorbell rang.
Victor sighed angrily and made his way to answer the door. He opened it and saw Karen biting her nails and looking somewhat shy. "Oh, hi." She greeted, smiling sheepishly.
"Come in, come in." Victor said, opening the door wider. "I thought you were taking Kori to see Rich at the hospital?" He hesitantly added after a few minutes. Karen closed the door behind her and nodded.
"I am. But later, she wasn't feeling too good so she went to her doctor. I hope she gets better..." Karen briefly explained, trailing off. "Are you working on your cars?"
"Yeah. Wanna help?" Victor asked, grinning like mad.
"Of course. If it means spending time with my wonderful boyfriend." Karen said playfully, a light blush creeping up her cheeks.
"Good. When I'm done fixing them, you can wash them. Sound fair?" Victor asked, opening the garage door. Karen nodded.
"Yeah. So which ones do you have down?" She asked, peering at all the cars curiously. Victor blushed and smiled sheepishly.
"Well... none of them yet." He replied, rubbing the back of his next nervously.
"Aw, you are just too cute!" Karen exclaimed, grabbing a hose and turning it on full blast.
"Karen, don't do it." Victor ordered sternly, receiving an innocent look from Karen. She squirted the hose at the wall, making sure and worked and to see which setting she wanted it on. After she chose the one that went the farthest, she squirted Victor who was trying to hide behind a car.
"Haha! Got you!" Karen exclaimed, looking around for Victor. "Vic? Where'd you go?" She asked nervously, knowing he was going to get another hose. She slowly turned around to be greeted by a blast of water, soaking her and ruining her outfit.
"No; I got you." Victor said, laughing. "No more hoses for today, deal?" Victor added, holding out his hand after dropping and turning off the hose.
"Deal." Karen said, also dropping and shutting off her hose. She shook his hand and he kissed her passionately. They broke apart a minute later and hugged.
"Wanna go swimming?"
"Gar, the movie was great!" Rachel exclaimed, smiling. She gave Garfield a quick kiss on the cheek, blushing as she did so. They were sitting in his car talking and listening to the radio.
"Yeah, it was." Garfield agreed. "Thanks for coming with me." He added, kissing her passionately. Rachel kissed back, and they both deepened the kiss. The broke apart reluctantly from lack of air a few minutes later. Rachel put her head on his shoulder and softly kissed his collarbone.
"Rachel." Garfield moaned, closing his eyes. He paused. "I love you."
"I love you, too, Gar." She replied, sitting straight up in her seat. "We should be getting back. Tomorrow's the last day of school." Rachel reminded, leaning back in her seat. Garfield whimpered playfully.
"But you don't have to be back until ten." He pouted. Rachel rolled her eyes and sighed.
"No." She said bluntly.
"Fine." Garfield mumbled, and started driving back to Rachel's house.
"Gar." Rachel started suddenly when they were five minutes from her house. "Don't ever get hurt." Garfield looked at her, puzzled. "Don't get hurt like Richard. I wouldn't be able to take it." She added, sighing as they reached her house.
"I won't. Promise." Garfield whispered, pulling into Rachel's driveway. The couple got out of the car and stopped in front of her door. Garfield pulled Rachel into a kiss and she kissed back with as much passion as she could muster. They deepened it and were about to start making out when Angela opened the front door. The two quickly broke apart and Angela sighed.
"I don't want grandchildren just yet, Rachel." She joked, and walked back into the living room and a short pause. Garfield and Rachel blushed madly, and embraced each other.
"I'll call you later." Garfield said, quickly kissing Rachel. Rachel nodded.
"Okay. Well, bye Gar." She said, a hint of sadness in her voice.
"Bye, Rach." He said, getting into his car and driving off. Rachel disappeared behind her door and locked it, making her way to the living room where Angela was sitting.
"Vic, do you have something I can wear? My clothes are soaked!" Karen asked, sitting on the edge of Victor's indoor pool. Victor nodded, and jumped out of the pool.
"Yeah. Good thing I have extra clothes for everyone." Victor said, sprinting out of the pool room. He came back a few minutes later with a white tank top and a pair of dark denim capris. Karen got out of the pool and took the clothes off of him. She muttered a simple thanks and walked into the bathroom that was next to the showers in the same room.
"Well, how do I look?" Karen asked, twirling around a couple of times.
"Wow... You look... great." Victor complimented, struggling for words. Karen giggled.
"Thanks." Karen said, embracing Victor, who hugged her back. Karen's cell phone rang and they reluctantly released each other.
"Hello?" Karen greeted.
"Hey, it's Kori. Can you pick me up at my place now?" Kori asked, and Karen heard rustling on the other end.
"Yeah, sure. Be there in a few." Karen said, hanging up her phone and putting it in her front pocket. She turned to Victor and briefly kissed him.
"Gotta go and get Kori now. I'll talk to ya later, babe." Karen said, walking out of the pool room.
"Okay. Bye, hun." Victor said sadly, leaning on the doorway as he watched her leave.
Kori heard her doorbell ring and rushed to the door to answer it first. Unfortunately, Carmen beat her to it.
"Sister, dear! Your friend Kate is here!" Carmen said with disgust, flipping her ebony hair.
"Thanks." Kori said in a high-pitched snobby tone. She gave Carmen a dirty look and slammed the door shut once she was outside. She gave Karen an award-winning smile.
"Hey, thanks for picking me up." Kori thanked, getting into Karen's convertible.
"No prob. You feeling better?" Karen asked, concerned about her friends well-being. Kori swatted her hand, hiding her nervous look with a smile.
"Of course!" Kori lied, closing her emerald eyes.
"If you say so..." Karen said unsurely, parking in front of the hospital.
"So, how was your date?" Angela asked Rachel enthusiastically. Rachel rolled her eyes and smiled.
"Good. We went to see Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest. Then we sat in his car and talked while listening to music. It was wonderful." Rachel sighed, laying down on the leather loveseat.
"How sweet..." Angela trailed off. "Was the movie good?"
"It was great." Rachel replied simply, sitting up and smiling slightly.
"That's wonderful, honey. But I think the phone in your room is ringing.." Angela said, watching Rachel race upstairs to answer her phone.
Rachel picked up the phone, not bothering to look at the caller ID. "Hello?" She answered, out of breath.
"Hey, babe." Garfield greeted, chuckling.
"I was hoping it was you. I can't stop thinking about you." Rachel said, laying down on her bed.
"And I can't stop thinking about you."
"Good. I miss you so much! When can I see you again?" Rachel asked impatiently, burying her face in a gray pillow. Garfield chuckled again.
"Tomorrow. I know, I'm irresistible, right?" Garfield asked, too full of himself. Rachel rolled her eyes.
"Yeah, you are." Rachel said, her voice muffled by the pillow.
"Well, I'm gonna go get some sleep. Talk to you later." Garfield said, yawning.
"Okay... bye." Rachel hung up her phone and walked over to her dresser to get on some pajamas.
Victor sighed. Ever since Karen had left he had been bored out his mind. He sighed again, slipping on some shoes and grabbing his car keys. He needed to grab a pizza.
After a short five minute drive, Victor reached the pizza parlor. He was seated at a table and saw two familiar faces.
"Jen?" He asked the woman at the table next to him. She looked at him surprised, but her expression soon turned calm.
"Vic, what's up? Have you met Wally?" She asked, motioning to the man, Wally, next to her. Victor nodded. "Wanna join us? We have way too much pizza here." Jen said, motioning for Victor to take a seat next to them. Victor shrugged.
"I guess." Victor replied, smiling.
"Is Rich really beat up? I mean, you're the only one that saw him besides Bruce..." Karen said nervously, stepping in front of Richard's door. Kori quietly sighed.
"It's fine Karen." Kori reassured, opening the door. Karen gasped.
"Poor Richard." She whispered, staring in disbelief. Karen and Kori took a seat and watched as Richard peacefully slept. After ten minutes of silence, Karen spoke up. "Kori, do you know where the bathroom is?" Karen asked, studying her nails. Kori nodded.
"Across the hall and down the left a little." Kori said, pointing at the door. Karen nodded and left the room. Kori sighed and closed her eyes only to open them a minute later. 'Guess I should say it now...' Kori thought, looking at Richard's sleeping form.
"Richard, sweetie, I know you can't hear me but I have to tell you something." Kori started, taking a deep breath as tears brimmed her eyes. "Richard... I'm pregnant with your baby."
I bet none of you were expecting that, huh? Well, that's it. The last chapter. I'll have the sequel up soon, promise! I'm so happy about ending this! The sequel is gonna be called Normal High School Life: The Sequel. Watch out for it!
