Chapter 8- Hour 2 & 1/2, Forever Waiting- For More Than One Thing

"This is a rather long wait, is it not?" Starfire asked quizzically. She was not sure she wanted to wait more than 20 minutes for anything and a whole 40 minutes seemed like a whole monnicar.

"Star… We're lucky to get a wait like this on a most holy experience. Do you know how long I have waited to get on this thing? This is my life long dream, my biggest wish coming to life; it's like Christmas only…" He was interrupted by a sarcastic and bored voice…

"Beast Boy, this rollercoaster isn't your entrance to heaven. Can it and throw it out to the curb…" Raven said rolling her eyes and leaning against the isle bar.

"Ya man, but you gotta understand that this is the 4th best experience you can ever have in life… Of course the 1st is eating my grandma's steak… But then comes the Dragster, the Millennium, then this," Cyborg said as if begging Raven to understand.

"Whatever, it's just a couple of roller coasters," Raven replied, pulling a hoody out of nowhere, slipping it on, and putting the hood up.

"So… Starfire, it's sort of a long wait but once you get on you see it's truly worth the thrill," Robin said. He rolled his eyes at the others.

"Robin perhaps you would be the one to take me on my first ride on the Raptor?" Starfire asked. She smiled sweetly. 'Please, please, please, say-

"Okay," Robin smiled. 'YES!' He thought. 'Definitely a good sign.'

'Awww, isn't that sweet…' Cyborg thought, rolling his one eye. 'Match made in heaven…'

'Gross… I think I'm going to be sick. But then again…'

'They sure like to take their sweet time with things…' the green teen thought, starting to let his mind drift as it so often did.

"This time I'M going with Raven!" Cyborg exclaimed, deciding not to pick on Robin for now.

"Hey! That's not fair!" Beast Boy cried.

"But is sharing our dear friend Raven not fair?" Starfire asked. She flew up quickly to see how much longer they would have to wait. She flew back down.

"I feel so loved… Stop," Raven spoke. Though no one could see, she truly did like it that her friends each wanted her to go on the ride with them.

"How much more time, Star?" Robin asked, becoming impatience.

"I believe about 10 more of the minutes," she replied. She was beginning to get very excited, adrenaline pumping. She had loved the Magnum and this was supposed to be much better. Not only from the roller coaster either. She was pretty sure more than one very important thing was a short time away. She would no longer feel as if she were forever waiting.

Teeheet! Hi. Sorry it took so long to update. I've been busy, busy, and busy! Christmas shopping, school, birthdays planning, swim practice, family issues… The list is endless. I hope you will find it in your heart to forgive me. After all, that is the Christmas spirit.
