Chapter 25-Speedy's Dreams Come True

"We're going to California! We're going to California! Hot and sexy girls! Hot and sexy girls!" Speedy sang as he danced on the table. The titans all shrunk in their seats. Parents and their children could only stare and wonder why this idiot was a superhero. "Mom," a young boy began, "what does sexy mean?" And soon after that, the titans were kicked out of the restaurant and banned from ever coming to it again. The titans all glared at Speedy. "Look what you did now!" Robin shouted. "I barely got any of my dinner!" Cyborg exclaimed. "I hope you're proud of what you've done!" Aqualad told him. "Dude! That food was good! And now none of us can go back!" Beast Boy protested. Speedy sat there looking at all of them as they yelled. "Well, look at the bright side!" Speedy began. The boys looked at him. "What's the bright side?" They asked in unison. Speedy sat up. "We're going to CALIFORNIA!" He screamed. The titans all groaned.

TTTTTT

The titans were now back in the T.V on their way to California. Of course, every five seconds Speedy would ask "Are we there yet?" which made the drive quite difficult to bear. Robin tried to read the newspaper but couldn't really concentrate, so he set it down. Starfire walked over to him. "Hi, Kori," Robin said. Starfire chuckled. "We are out of the restaurant now," she began, "you can stop calling me that." Robin laughed a bit and walked over to her. He gently held one of her two strands of hair that hung in the front. Starfire blushed at his gesture. "I don't know," Robin began, "I think it's...cute." The two smiled at each other. "And, uh," Robin began, "sorry if I got you worried last night. I guess I was just a little upset."

"What were you upset about?" Starfire asked him. Robin looked at the ground. "It was something stupid," he said, "nothing important." Starfire's eyes sparkled. "I feel like I know him," Starfire thought, "but at the same time, I feel as if he is pushing me away. Like, there is some dark secret he has held that causes a barrier between us. But...if he loves me like I think he does, one day he will open up to me. One day." So, Starfire smiled at him and held his hand in both her own. "So," she began, "what do you want to do once we get to this California?" Robin shrugged. "I don't know, go to Hollywood, or something."

"A wonderful idea, good chap!" Speedy exclaimed. "Think of all the hot celebrities! Jessica Simpson, Jennifer Aniston, Halle Berry! And...my all time favorite...Angelina Jolie." He clasped his hands together imagining his fantasy of celebrities surrounding him. "Guys," Speedy began, "I could become the next Brad Pitt! Then I would be practically married to Angelina! That would make my life complete!" And he fainted on the ground. Aqualad rolled his eyes. "Speedy, you're drooling again," he said. Terra scoffed. "But you do have to admit," she began, "it would be so awesome to meet a real live celebrity!" She sighed. "I would love to meet the heartthrob of my dreams," she continued dreamily. Beast Boy looked over at her. "Yeah, who's that?" he asked. Terra sighed again. "Orlando Bloom," she finished. Starfire blinked a few times. She had no idea what they were talking about! Beast Boy laughed. "Yeah," he said, "whatever." Terra looked over at him. "Oh, yeah?" she began, "and who would you like to meet?" She asked. Beast Boy shrugged. "Dunno," he said, "besides...all I really need is Raven." The titans rolled their eyes. "Well," Starfire began, "at least you are happy with Raven."

"Happy!" Beast Boy exclaimed, "I'm not just happy Starfire! I'm desperately in love." He blinked a few times and sighed. "I don't need any celebrities!" Beast Boy concluded. "I'm happy just the way I am!" Terra blinked. "You really are a love struck fool," she said. Beast Boy only nodded. "Hey!" Bumblebee exclaimed, "I have a neat and fun idea! Why don't we use our real names in California? You know, since everyone there might think we're freaks calling each other "Bumblebee" and "Aqualad", you know?"

"That sounds most delightful!" Starfire exclaimed. "Yeah!" Aqualad chimed in. "Sounds great to me!" Speedy exclaimed. Terra smiled and nodded. Robin sat down on the couch. "I'd really just prefer Robin," he said. The titans now all had downcast expressions. "Come on dude!" Beast Boy began, "if we are all gonna do it, you should do it too!" Robin shook his head. "No," he said, "I'm Robin. That's all there is to it." And he walked out of the room. Starfire started to go after him. "Robin," she said, but Bumblebee grabbed her shoulder. "I think he wants to be left alone," she said. Starfire looked after him with a hurt expression. "Robin, why do you keep making the barrier between us stronger?" Starfire thought, "why are you pushing yourself away from me?"

"Anyways," Speedy began, "I'm Roy." Bumblebee laughed. "Karen," she said. "Tara Markov!" Terra exclaimed. "Garth," Aqualad chimed. "Garfield!" Beast Boy yelled! The titans let a small laugh out, including Garfield himself. "I am Kori Anders!" Starfire pronounced. "VICTOR!" Cyborg yelled from the driver's seat. Raven then walked into the room. "What is going on here?" She asked. Bumblebee walked over to her. "What's your real name?" She asked. Raven looked at her like she was crazy. "You don't really need to know," she replied, "just call me Raven. It's not very different from my real name."

"Yeah," Aqualad began, "but it's fun to learn new names! So, could you please tell us?" Raven looked at all their pleading faces. "All right!" She yelled, "it's...Rachel." The titans all stared at her. "That's it?" Speedy asked. Raven nodded. "That's it," she replied. "I don't get why you were so worked up about it." Terra said. Raven shrugged. "I...guess I never thought you guys would have to know," she replied. The titans all smiled at each other. It seemed like their friendship was growing stronger. But, Starfire felt as if it wasn't. How could their friendship be stronger...if Robin wasn't with them?

TTTTTT

Many, many hours had passed...more actually days. Until, the sign came. The sign of truth! The sign of showing many patience for Speedy was finally in eyesight! And the sign said...

"WELCOME TO CALIFORNIA!"

"WA-HOO!" Speedy shouted out the window. He looked out and saw many people. Many girls. He grinned at them...and some of them smiled and waved back! Speedy had the biggest smile ever and was skipping around the T.V like a little girl at Christmas. "We're finally here!" He said as he fainted on one of the beds. Terra looked over at him. "Yeah," she began, "but get over it! We're only going to be here for a week or so. So, if I was you, I wouldn't plan on getting a girlfriend." Speedy now looked at her. "And why's that?" He asked. Terra scoffed. "Because it will probably take a century for a girl to fall in love with you!" She replied.

Speedy rolled his eyes. "That's what you think my dear, Terra, but I swear to you, that I will knock those girls off of their feet!" Terra rolled her eyes and the T.V stopped. Speedy's eyes gleamed with anticipation. "All right y'all," Cyborg said, "we're here."

Speedy grinned like a mad man.
