Thanks for all the great feedback you guys have been givin' for chapters 1 &2. I can feel the love! Sorry if I drag some again, but when I get an idea in my head it has to be put to paper or my head might explode. I just tried to have some fun with this one. Hope you guys like it. Enjoy!

I do not own the Teen Titans or any of the characters, but their thoughts, actions, and emotions bend at my whim! Being God is fun!

Chapter 3:

The rest of Beast Boy's day was interesting to say the least. After Cyborg had recovered from the shock of Raven so much as speaking before noon, to say nothing of her actually saying 'good morning', Beast Boy challenged him to a Death Match marathon.

"Don't worry Cy. You didn't get beat that badly." Beast Boy said smiling at a very discontent Cyborg. There a slight tone of sarcasm in his voice, being that the final count at the end of the 3 hour ordeal was Beast Boy with 39 wins to Cyborg's 11. Cyborg just grumbled and sulked off to the garage to work on the T-Car.

"I'm sure you'll do better next time!" Beast Boy yelled after him. He yelped and ducked just in time to dodge the wrench that had come flying in from down the hallway that led to the garage. The wrench bounced harmlessly off the steel wall behind Beast Boy. He couldn't help but grin to himself.

After a quick lunch of vegetarian chili and changing into his usual form-fitted black and purple uniform, Beast Boy went down to the gym. As he walked in he saw Robin practicing on his wing chun dummy. His hands moved in a blur around the wooden pegs, striking at various pressure points, making a loud thunk every time he struck the dummy. This impressive display of strength and hand-eye coordination more than intimidated Beast Boy.

"Wanna go a few rounds Beast Boy?" Robin asked grinning at Beast Boy.

"Uhhh…uhh…sure. I guess." he replied nervously. Beast Boy knew that there was no way he could beat Robin in hand to hand combat. Beast Boy relied almost entirely on his ability to transform into animals to fight. While Robin didn't have any powers, he more than made up for it by having almost precognitive reflexes, inhuman speed, and incredible strength.

"Go easy on me dude." he said as they walked over to the sparring area. "Not all of us can take down twenty guys without having to turn into a gorilla or a tiger."

"I'll do my best, but when I fight, I fight to win." he said coolly. Beast Boy groaned and slumped at this.

"Alright dude, just try not to hurt me too badly." He said straightening up and taking a defensive position. Robin wasted no time. He quickly slipped into his offensive stance and charged at Beast Boy. Before he could blink Beast Boy found himself on his back. Robin had done a quick sweep kick knocking Beast Boy's legs out from under him. Robin stood above him still in his offensive stance.

"You're not concentrating Beast Boy." he said showing no emotion. This continued for another half hour, Beats Boy getting decked by Robin and never once realizing exactly what had happened.

"I'm gonna call it quits man. I don't think I can take another beating like that." Beast Boy said getting to his feet.

"Come on, just one more time."

"Dude, this just isn't my thing. When I'm an animal my instincts take over and tell me how to fight. But when I'm just me I have trouble walking without tripping over my own feet."

"Try clearing your mind. Relax, stay loose, and then react."

"Alright, I guess once more couldn't hurt…uhhh…never mind. Let's do this." he said sighing. Robin took his offensive position again, but Beast Boy just stood there. He closed his eyes and took a deep breath, trying to concentrate.

All right Gar, just survive this and you're done. You don't want Robin to think you're a wuss.

He tried to clear his mind, when, of all things, the thought of Raven flashed in his mind.

Why would I think of her now?

Beast Boy opened his eyes and saw that Robin had already begun his charge. He cringed and closed his eyes preparing for the impact. He felt his muscles tighten and his feet slide back. He opened his eyes, but didn't see Robin anywhere. He looked down and saw robin lying flat on his back with the most surprised look he'd ever seen on the Boy Wonder's face.

"Uhhh, what're you doin' on the ground dude?" he asked looking down at Robin.

"What do you mean? You put me here!"

"Really?" he said now equally surprised.

"Yeah, I'm not even really sure what you did. Since when could you move like that?"

"Uhhh… not sure. Well…thanks for the workout dude." Beast Boy said grinning and scratching the back of his head. He began to walk out, still a little bewildered as to how he had managed to beat Robin even if it was only once out of maybe 30 times.

"Wait a second Beast Boy." Robin said getting up. "We're gonna do this again. I don't think anyone has ever countered me like that except for Slade and Batman. You've got potential and I'm not letting it go to waste."

Great. What have I gotten myself into?

"Sure dude, but not right now. I promised Star I'd help her with something."

"Alright, but don't think I'm going easy on you anymore." Robin said grinning at Beast Boy.

"Wouldn't expect anything less. Seeya later." he said walking back towards the living room. Beast Boy really had promised to help Starfire, but was glad all the same to have an excuse to cease the thrashing Robin had been giving him before that last bout.

What made me react like that? There's no way I could ever move that fast. Maybe it was-

"Friend Beast Boy!" Starfire yelled happily from the couch as Beast Boy entered the living room. She flew from the couch over to Beast Boy.

"You ready Star?" Beast Boy asked as she approached.

"Oh yes! I am most anticipating learning the production of the shrill noise made produced by pursing one's lips! What is it you called it? Whittling?"

"Whistling Star." he said smiling. It was a long hour and a half, but after a lot of practice, a lot of patience, and somehow a loss of most of the living room, Starfire could do a good, loud two-tone whistle and even whistle some simple tunes.

"Ok, as long as you keep from trying too hard, I don't think you'll shoot star bolts when you whistle." Beast Boy said assuringly. "You're actually better than me now."

"I apologize for the difficulty I presented. I did not know why this "whistling" was forbidden on Tamaran, but now I see why my K'Norfka said it caused the fall of many planets. You are a most excellent teacher though. Thank you Beast Boy." She said contently giving him a small hug.

"You're welcome Star." he said returning the hug.

"I shall see you later." she said smiling as she flew down towards the gym, probably to show her new talent off to Robin.

Robin's lucky to have a girl like her. I just wish he'd figure out that she likes him. How long's it been since she started crushing on him? Like a year? That's just sad...Guess I'm not one to talk about not realizing those kind of feelings.

Beast Boy glanced at the clock above the TV. It read 5:42 in bright blue numbers.

Hmmm...there was something else I was supposed to do today...

The image of Raven again flashed in his mind.

"DOY!" he yelled, smacking himself in the head. He quickly ran to his room and grabbed his towel. Then he dashed down the hall to the bathroom hoping no one was using it. Cyborg was just coming out when he saw Beast Boy sprinting towards him.

"WHOA!" he yelled as he jumped out of the way to avoid having Beast Boy collide with him.

"Thanks-Cy-sorry!" he said quickly as he ran past him into the bathroom. He closed the door and turned on the shower. After hanging his towel up on one of the hooks adorning the wall next to the shower, he got undressed and hastily threw his dirty clothes into the hamper in the corner. He jumped in to the shower and howled in distress as the water couldn't have bee more than 45°F. He quickly adjusted the knobs to get the water to a comfortable temperature.

"Ahhh." he sighed contently as the warm water began flowing over his shoulders. The tepid water felt good on the bruises Robin had left from there sparring. He hurriedly washed and got out of the shower. Not wanting to spray water everywhere by changing into a wolf and shaking himself dry as he often did at the beach or pool, he toweled himself off and threw the towel around his waist. Walking to the sink, he grabbed his tooth brush from the rack, picking it from amongst the red, blue, black, green, and pink ones, and spread some toothpaste from the 'community tube' on it. After brushing his teeth, he walked out of the bathroom and back down the hall to his room.

Beast Boy, now back in his room and wearing his lucky boxers, which were black with green tiger claw marks, was grabbing clothes out of his closet.

Casual clothes are probably a good move. They're more comfortable and they'll make us a little less noticeable. The last thing I want is getting rushed by Titan fans while on the streets. Hmmm...I wonder what Raven considers casual. Come to think of it, I don't think I've ever seen her in anything but her crime fighting outfit...weird.

He'd decided on some baggy blue jeans and a loose purple hoodie with a large, green 58 on the front over a tight green T-shirt. After putting on some ankle socks he grabbed his favorite shoes out of the closet. They were a pair of purple skateboarder shoes with green soles and laces. They were his babies, his T-Car if you will. He only wore them for times he considered to be special occasions. The last time he wore them was during a city wide tofu eating competition, which he ended up winning. It was followed a week long case of indigestion, but he still thought it was worth it. He glanced up at the shelf which held the trophy he had received for said victory, which had a rather portly man holding a plate with a large solid cube of tofu on it over his head atop it. A grin crept across his face.

Good times man. Good times.

He looked at his clock. It read 5:58.

Wow! I made good time.

Grabbing his wallet, keys to the tower, and communicator off of his dresser he walked out of his room and towards Raven's. He stopped in front of her room and brought his hand up to knock.

All right...let's hope this goes better than last time.

He moved to knock and, of course, the door opened just before his fist made contact with the door. He fell forward, but instead of trying to regain his balance, he simply let himself plummet to the ground almost as if he had finally accepted that this was going to be a normal occurrence from now on. Just before he face planted the ground, a pillow enveloped in a black aura zoomed in front of him. His body harmlessly collapsed onto the pillow.

"Phanks Lay." Beast Boy said speaking into the pillow. He rolled off of it so that he was lying face up on the floor and found Raven starring down at him with a little smirk on her face.

"What was that?"

"I said…thanks Rae" he said smiling up at her. After getting to his feet he looked her up and down and then stared at her questioningly. She was still wearing her usual unitard and cloak.

"Uhhh…are you ready to go?" he asked.

"Yeah, are you?"

"Yeah, but…uhhh…is that what you're gonna wear?"

"What's wrong with what I'm wearing?" she asked raising an eyebrow.

"Nothing nothing." he said putting up his hands up defensively with a hint of panic in his voice. "It's just that I thought we'd go a little more…laid back."

"Hmmm." she murmured in thought as she looked over what he was wearing. There was a short silence before she closed her eyes and then looking up at him said, "All right. Give me a minute."

"Uhhh, ok." Beast Boy said a little surprised as he backed out of her room. Raven didn't usually venture far from her 'norm'. He put his hands behind his head and leaned up against the wall across from the door to Raven's room. Looking up at the ceiling, he tried to imagine what Raven would wear. He couldn't even begin to imagine her in anything besides what she normally wore.

She'll probably go with the goth look...or maybe more of a punk style? I don't know.

The door slid open and Raven walked out. Beast Boy lowered his eyes from the ceiling and his mouth nearly dropped to the floor. Raven was wearing a tight black long sleeved shirt that hung off her shoulders over a black tank top and loose but still flattering black cargo pants and black boots. The only thing that she hadn't changed from her usual outfit was her yellow belt which now hung loosely about her waist. She also had about a half dozen blue and black rubber bracelets on her left wrist and a black choker.

I knew that Raven was hot but...beautiful doesn't seem like a big enough word. Why couldn't I ever see it before?

"Y-you look. You look…wow!" he stammered as she walked over and placed a single finger under his chin lifting it shut.

"Glad you like it. I didn't think I'd ever wear the stuff Starfire made me get from the mall." she said smiling and putting her hands behind her back. "You look good too. It's very…you."

"Thanks, that's what I was going for." They both grinned at each other. "Shall we?'

"Let's."

They started down the hall, but when Beast Boy went towards the stairs that led to the ground level exit Raven grabbed his hand and pulled him to the stairs that led to the roof. He hesitated for a moment, but then let her lead on. He saw a small smile on her face as they ran up the stairs, her hand reaching back and holding his tightly as he struggled to keep up. Even though he had no idea what was going on, he couldn't help but smile.

This is going to be very interesting.

While there was a lot of weirdness in there, I really liked the ending. Also hope you guys like the new "looks" I gave Raven and Beast Boy. I kind of projected myself on to Beast Boy (less all the green and purple, LOVE THE BLACK BABY!) so I had to give him a little of my style, or lack there of. Raven's outfit just kind of came to me. Don't send any hate mail because of the way I dressed her! Blame the game, not the playa! I only go where my artistic instinct leads me (currently pointed off a cliff I can only assume leads to Candy Land). Stay tuned for the next chapter. The date might actually start! R&R, Peace and Love!
