Hey guys, I did decide to continue this, I know that I have other projects that I should be working on, but last night I couldn't sleep and this story kept popping in my mind along with ideas for it. And most of you seemed to want another chapter or two so I just decided to go for it.

Any-way, I posted the anonymous review replies at the bottom, everyone should have gotten a personal reply.

Warning: Extreme fluffiness

Title:

Raven shifted. She was warm and comfortable. And it smelled good. Really good. She tilted her head lightly, breathing the scent in. She shifted again, murmuring slightly, before opening her eyes.

The couch, she was on the couch...with Robin. Raven lay on her side facing Robin, her body pressed tightly against his, her head resting against his collar bone. Sometime during the night her shirt had ridden up so it lay just below her breasts, and one of Robin's hands rested on her bare flesh.

Raven sat up alarmed. What time was it? Were any of the others awake? She looked back at Robin as he moaned and scowled in his sleep, his hands rearranging themselves after the sudden absence of Raven's body.

She studied his face, her eyes passing over his mask. It was always so hard to read his emotions with that mask on. He kept his eyes hidden away from everyone. From her. Without thinking, Raven let her hands travel up to his face, her fingers resting lightly on the sides of his face, her slender thumbs on his cheeks.

Faster than she could think two hands flew up and grabbed her wrists in a vice-like grip. Raven gasped and pulled back, but Robin's grip was so tight that she only succeeded in pulling him up.

With her hands trapped in his they both stared at each other, Robin calmly, Raven shocked and breathing heavily.

Robin slowly smiled, half friendly half arrogant, "I didn't know you were so touchy feely, Raven."

Raven threw his hands off of her wrists, an angry expression on her face. She hated being caught off guard. "I didn't know that the mighty Robin was so damn cuddly!" she retorted the mockery in her voice clear.

The smiled vanished from Robin's face instantly. "I was at the back of the couch, you were the one that turned to me!"

"I was alone when I went to sleep!" Raven shot back, the vein in her temple throbbing.

Robin's eye was twitching, "You were on my shoulder when you feel asleep!"

"Then how the hell did I end up in your arms?" Raven shouted, black energy radiating from her body.

"Dude, am I interrupting something?"

Both Robin and Raven turned to face Beast Boy their surprise evident on their faces.

"No," Raven said, glaring at Robin as she walked out of the room.

Beast Boy stared after Raven and then turned to Robin, "What did you do to get on her bad side?"

"Nothing," Robin muttered as he exited out a different door.

"I'm glad to see that we are all morning people!" Beast Boy yelled after them.

Robin and Raven spent the majority of the day avoiding each other. Raven went to the roof to do her meditations. Once she meditated enough she would no longer have the problem of hearing the others' thoughts.

Robin went to the evidence room and began the tedious job of meticulous record keeping. He wrote down every detail of the fight, every hint, every reaction, every hit. But flashes of that morning's fight kept showing up, an unwelcome slide show.

When Cyborg loudly announced dinner Robin was reluctant to go. He didn't want to face Raven again. But she didn't show up. Starfire went to find her and returned with the message that Raven was locked in her room and wouldn't answer the very loud and forceful knocking.

"Do you believe she is all right?" Starfire asked concerned.

Robin ruthlessly attacked his spaghetti with his fork. "I'm sure she's fine," he said roughly.

Beat Boy glanced at Robin with a calculating expression on his face. It was too bad he didn't have a clue.

It was once again two o'clock in the morning and Robin was sitting on the couch, staring at the massive-screen tv. His eyes were glazed and he flipped through the channels with an almost robotic manner.

He sighed and turned the television off, standing to look out the window at the town. It was rare to ever have the Tower silent and the city calm. Usually there was some sort of crime, or Starfire's extremely loud singing, or amazingly noisy fights about video games going on. But tonight it was quiet.

Except-

Robin turned and frowned into the darkness of the living room. He had exceptional hearing and he detected a small sound coming from the right side of the Tower.

He moved quickly through the dark halls, getting closer to the source of the sound. It was crying, sobbing actually. And not a sad crying either, but a frightened, terrified sound.

It was Raven, he realized his eyebrows arching in surprise. The anger he felt about their earlier argument faded away and was replaced with concern. What could possibly be making her cry like that?

Raven felt herself shaken awake by a pair of strong arms. She opened her eyes, looking around wildly, panic and fear racing through her veins. After verifying that she was in her room she turned to Robin, her face slowly crumbling. Raven let her head hang, one of her hands pressed over her mouth. She hated for anyone to see her weak.

Robin stared at Raven, her shoulders shaking violently with the force of her terrified sobs. He was on his knees, kneeling over her, but he grabbed her arm and pulled her, pulling her into his arms. Her head nestled into the crook of his shoulder and neck, and he sat back bringing her with him. When her sobs didn't cease he stroked her hair soothingly.

"He killed everyone," Raven managed to gasp, "Everyone!"

Her sobs got stronger, until tremors ran all through her body. Robin became alarmed by the intensity of her panic, and he wrapped his arms completely around her. "It's okay, Raven. He couldn't of killed everyone, or else I wouldn't be here," he murmured into her ear.

Raven calmed and pulled away from him long enough to search his face with her eyes as though checking for herself that he wasn't dead. When she was finally satisfied she buried her head in his chest again, no longer sobbing. Instead silent tears fell from her cheeks and soaked Robin's thin shirt. A fine trembling had taken over her slim body and she shook slightly in his arms.

Robin tightened his hold on her. His mind flashed back to what seemed like ages ago, when he was small. He was sobbing uncontrollably, but he was being held in strong, safe arms.

When his memory flash ended he found himself lying on Raven's bed with her beside him, finally exhausted into sleep by the force of her crying. She was covered in sweat, but was shivering.

She was going into shock.

Robin sighed and pulled her thick blankets over them, her silk sheets soft against his skin. And he pulled her cold body against his warm one. He moved his hands up and down her arms in an effort to warm her up. Slowly the darkness overcame him and he joined her in slumber.

Sometime during the night Raven woke again and looked over at Robin's peaceful sleeping face. She breathed in that comforting scent and then closed her eyes. She went back to sleep in his strong, safe arms.

And that's it. Should I do another or is it enough? I'll go with the majority.

Review Replies!

xASxRAVENxASx: Wow, you are one of my favorite people in the whole world. Why don't you get an account on this site. It's free and then you could also write stories if you wanted to. I would definitly love to read your stories, and if you needed someone as a language check I would be happy to do that for you! I think you have talents as a writer, as witnessed in your poetry :). I decided to keep going with this story while I wait for 3 more reviews on my other one. You know, I figured that some happiness should run parallel to my darker one. Any-way, thank you soooo much for reviewing, and for reviewing the other one as well! I'm not very good at getting replies out, so you know.

Secret: I haven't had Starfire see this yet, but if I do decide to add more chapters then I will definitely have to insert some reactions. I have a few ideas in mind. I also feel a need to watch out though, because there are some Starfire lovers out there patrolling the boards, and I don't like to cause...much...trouble. Thank you for reviewing!

Scarlett Ward: I'm so happy that you found this story! And I'm glad you like it too. The people that like my other story tend to stick with the darker stuff, and so the absolute fluffiness puts them off a bit. I did add a bit of drama in this chapter, I couldn't help myself, but I managed to end the chapter on a happy-ish note. I did decide to add another chapter so I hope that you like this one as well!

Not telling: Wow, thank you so much! There are a lot of good writers out there, so I hope you get around to reading their stuff too. Their stuff puts me to shame. I'm soo glad that the characters didn't seem ooc, that is something that I'm always scared of doing because I love their personalities just the way they are. I hope that you liked my other work as well, it is starkly different from this one. This one is very happy and fluffy, and my other ones...well you get the idea. Any-way thank you so much for reviewing!

Miyu: Hey thank you! I'm always glad to hear from people that like my work. And I did decide to continue it, most people said that they would like a few more chapters. I hope that you can find it again, I always wonder how the people without accounts can keep up. But I'm sure that you are perfectly capable. I hope you like this chapter as well, thank you for the review!
