A/N: It's been a while, ne? I apologize, I've been busy with end of semester work and exams and whatnot. But I'm done now, and to celebrate, I present to you the next chapter! Unproofed, so please point out any embarassing typos. ((sheepish smile))
Once again, thanks so much to everyone who read and to those who also took the time to leave me a comment. ((hugs the lot of you))
Theme
#6 Argument:
Lover's Spat (aka. I really suck at titles)
"For the last time, I'm not mad!"
Beastboy looked up from his video game at the uncharacteristic shout of the resident Dark Witch. She certainly sounded mad enough, he thought to himself, but wisely kept his mouth shut. Cyborg had also paused his frantic button-pressing beside him at Raven's heated outcry. The two Titans looked at one another, then back where Raven had just walked into the living room, a scowl twisting her features.
"I don't believe you." Robin trotted in after her, his face set stubbornly.
"Oh man," Cyborg muttered in a low voice, and shook his head once before focussing his attention back to Super Slam Brothers 3.
But Beastboy was still curious. "Dude, what's going on?" he asked his cybernetic friend quietly. When Raven was upset, it paid to know exactly why and then avoid whatever it was like the plague. "Why's Raven so angry?"
"I'm not angry!"
The green shapeshifter flinched at the growl, thinking that she'd heard him. Luckily for him, her glare remained solidly on Robin.
"Robin accidentally kicked her in the face when she walked into the gym yesterday. He was training and she walked in and…" The older teen let his silence speak for him.
"Ouch." BeastBoy winced at the thought.
"Yeah. He thinks Raven's pissed at him." Sneaking a quick glance at the two birds, he shook his head at Raven's dark look. There was an ugly purple bruise staining her left cheek, partially hidden by her hair. "Hell, I think she's pissed, but the girl won't admit it."
"I'm telling you I'm not mad, Boy Blunder," Raven was saying as she took a mug out of the cabinet. "There's nothing to be mad about." The cup was placed onto the counter none-too-gently and the cabinet slammed shut. "It was my own fault for walking in without announcing myself first." Another cabinet door flew open and a teabag was deposited into her cup. "So stop following me around like a lost puppy."
"But you wouldn't even let me look at it," Robin persisted doggedly. "I really am sorry Raven."
The dark bird gritted her teeth as she poured hot water and let the tea steep. "I know you are, Robin. You've told me fifty million times already." She grabbed the cup and faced him. "And I told you I believe you."
She skirted around him and headed out the door. He followed.
"But-"
"But nothing!"
By now, the two other Titans present were watching the drama unfolding before them with a sense of dread.
"Uh, Raven?"
"What!" Her attention snapped instantly to the youngest Titan.
Beastboy meeped, but he still managed, with a semblance of cheekiness, a "Just kiss and make up already."
Both birds were staring at him now, and Raven's eyes began to narrow dangerously. Beastboy gulped audibly.
"Stay out-ahhh—"
Raven's sharp order was bitten off as Robin suddenly grabbed her arm and pulled her out the door. Beastboy deflated with relief. There was the sound of Raven's voice raised in an indignant protest, but that was soon cut off. The two remaining Titans shared a look and eyed the closed door warily.
The silence stretched for another long minute, before Cyborg cleared his throat. "Well, at least they're quiet now."

Note: I just finished my exams this week ((dances)), so this is fairly spur-of-the-moment writing, but I had an idea and I ran with it. So hopefully, it isn't too rushed.
Comments and concrits are always welcome and appreciated.
