Wuzzup! This is Lea again. I hope you guys aren't mad at me for not writing for so long but I was so busy. Anyway, I'm busy working on chapter two on Locked Up. Seeing that I got a lot of reviews for it anyway. I'll be continuing it sooner or later. Also may I add that my birthday will be coming soon! It's on August 12th! YAY! I'll be 15...okay now I feel old. Oh and I'd like to say that moonchild10, if you may know her, is making fanart for this story. I just wanted to add that. :P Oh, and I got a review saying that Beastboy would never do these things. I know….(lol) Beastboy wouldn't spy on a "ghost". He'd be too afraid but that's just my opinion. Oh and I'd like to thank my reviewers and all my fans. Also, I'd like to thank the people who read it. :D Well, back on to My Stranger. In chapter ten, this is the scene with Raven and Stranger talking at the tree. Don't forget…Beastboy is up in the tree "watching" them. (You know this will be bad) Well that's it! Hmm….disclaimer!
Disclaimer: I don't own Teen Titans at all. Matter of fact, I hardly own myself..? Oookay…well on with the story.
Chapter Ten: A Date?
"Stranger?" Raven said surprised. She jumped a bit from seeing him standing a foot away from her. "What are you doing here?"
Stranger smiled gently at Raven. "What do you think? Came here to see you."
Raven blushed. Came here to see me?
The titan sat back down under the tree and took deep breaths. Then she regained her normal self. "That's...nice...I guess."
The tall teenager grinned. "Oh…Sorry I was late."
Raven's eyes widened. "You're the one who sent..."
Stranger nodded and sat down under the tree beside Raven. He looked at her and smiled again. "I see you're wearing my gifts."
Raven thought back at what she was wearing. She was wearing the dress and the necklace. Which brought chills to her back.
She flaunted. "I'm not that big on gifts, sorry."
Stranger? Who the hell is he? Beastboy thought up at the tree. He couldn't watch Raven be annoyed by some stalker.
He grew hotheaded thinking of some guy other than him flirting with Raven. Is this the guy who sent her the box? HE'S THE ONE WHO SENT IT!
He better keep his hands off Raven. She's mine! Beastboy thought jabbing his monkey paws together.
For the first time, Beastboy was extremely jealous. He already hated him from the start. Walking right up to Raven saying that he wanted to see her! What kind of crap is that?
Who is this joker anyways? Does he really think he has a chance with Raven? HA! That's a laugh. Beastboy thought angrily. He doesn't have a chance!
The little green boy laughed silently in his head.
Then, Beastboy gulped. I hope.
"You didn't come to the cafe like I asked you too. So I decided to send you a box and a note so that we can see each other again." Stranger added.
Raven turned red. "See each other?"
Stranger smiled weakly. "Yeah, call it corny but yeah."
Oh please, don't make me barf. This guy is a total liar. He probably already has a girlfriend waiting for him! The green boy thought. Of course, Beastboy would know all the secrets of guys, I mean he is one, right?
What ever you do Raven, don't listen to him! He's lying! Beastboy said to himself. He never felt so angry at a guy before. Could he be in love with Raven? Nah...?
He bit his nails and hoped that this Stranger wouldn't hit on Raven.
"You wanted to see me again?" Raven said shyly. Holding her hands together, Raven tried to calm down. Nearby, trees were being bent fully by Raven's emotions setting forth upon her.
Stranger nodded. "Because..."
Raven paused. Taking more lively breaths again, Raven asked. "Because what?"
Stranger smiled weakly. He felt so nervous in the pit of his heart.
"Because, I missed you." Stranger continued.
Raven felt her powers go out of control oncemore. "You missed me?"
Raven never felt as nervous as she felt right now. She felt a new feeling come to her...a feeling that warmed her whole body.
EEeekk! EEeeek! Beastboy screamed. He banged the branches trying to stop their moment. (remember he is a monkey after all)
NO! NO! NO! Beastboy thought loudly. Make this bad horror movie stop!
The monkey trampled across branch to branch making as much noise as possible.
"Yeah, Raven. I HAD to see you again." Stranger smirked. Raven could tell he was nervous as much as she was.
"Well I'm here." Raven exclaimed sarcastically.
Stranger laughed at her sarcasm. "I can see that."
After that, the two were quiet. You could hear the wind gust air into the sky and also crickets creaking.
It took a few minutes before they broke off into conversation again. Raven broke it off first.
The titan started twitching. "Um...so..."
"Oh yeah! Well...I'm hoping that you would spare some time and visit me at the cafe. Not like you have any plans, right?" Stranger said quickly and nervously. He grew red with blush.
Raven stared down at her feet. What should she say to him? Yes, I love you or No, I hate you.
The teen crossed her arms. Well…she had to act like herself. Therefore, she went her way. "I've got plans. Sorry."
Stranger frowned. He looked like he wanted to pout. "Oh...well if you do have time."
I knew this was going to happen. I just knew it! She hates me. Stranger thought to himself holding back his tears and his broken heart.
"Maybe." Raven said as she turned away from him.
Yes! Raven's being mean...that means he won't have a chance. I knew that he didn't have a chance with her. Dude, I just knew! I'm such a genius. Beastboy leaped with joy. He was happy that Raven was rejecting Stranger solemnly.
I know that he must feel horrible now. What a cheeseball! The changeling laughed hysterically at the loser. (LOL)
Stranger straightened up. He can't show Raven how upset he was that she had plans. "Well...I was just wondering."
Raven glared at him from the corner of her eye. She gave him her angry look. "Yeah?"
The young teen sweated a storm. "Um...do you want to go see a movie some time?"
"A movie?" Raven looked shocked. "What kind?"
Stranger grinned. "Romance...a chick flick?"
Raven wanted to vomit. Romance? What type of girl does he take me for?
"Sorry, maybe next time." Raven added being herself. I'm starting to like this.
Stranger looked like he wanted to explode. He wanted Raven to like him more than anything in the world…but why was she rejecting him? "You're not interested?"
"Not with those type of movies I'm not." Raven eyed the tall teen. That's it, Raven. Keep it up….
Feeling a little hope from what Raven had said, he smiled to himself.
"Then, what type of movies do you like?" Stranger asked.
Raven smiled. It didn't take her long to answer. "HORROR!"
"Horror?" Stranger dreaded the horror movies. "You like that crap?" "What? Is something wrong with it?" Raven asked with an angry look.Stranger turned red. He knew about Raven's tantrums. He had to agree with her...or else. "Oh, There's nothing wrong with horror. I actually find it very interesting."
"That's what I thought." Raven gestured. Yep, I'm being myself.
Yes! Ten points for Raven, Zero to Stranger! Beastboy said to himself. He was like having a party up in the tree. Luckily for him, Raven couldn't see him.
Beastboy started to shriek like a monkey. (well he is one!) What type of guy is he? Offering Raven to go to the movies to watch chick flicks! HA! That's the funniest thing. Beastboy giggled.
"So if we go see 'horror' will you go?" Stranger asked Raven.
Raven looked at him. His blue eyes staring back at her and her violet eyes gazing back at his. What should she say?
"Maybe." Raven said. Perfect!
Stranger seemed sad. Everything he swung at her, Raven hit it back. What was he doing wrong? What could he do? He didn't want to say something stupid again towards her.
"Oh…." Was the only word that came out of Stranger's mouth. He felt like he died or got stabbed in the heart about a million times. What is there to do? Raven wasn't interested…so you can't force her to go.
Beastboy was still up in the tree gazing at the two. He felt happier than ever. Raven rejected Stranger about five times. (Or maybe more)
Yeah! Go home Stranger, there's no more room for losers! The green monkey thought. He felt pride run through his veins.
Raven peered at Stranger's face. He looked depressed. Some tears were forming in his eyes but seemed to be held back. Raven didn't want him to be sad because of what she said. Maybe she should….go. But Raven didn't want to tell him…what would her team think?
Then, Stranger got up from the big tree. "Well…I'm going….if you have time…"
Raven got up with him. She had to say something to make him happy. When she thought about it, she dreaded to say it. However, it was the only way. "I'll GO!"
She screamed with fury with accepting the date. She didn't really like Stranger but she didn't want to make him go through depression. Going with him to the movies wasn't going to be all that bad….right? Right! Didn't think so.
Beastboy from up the tree was shocked. She'll WHAT! GO!
The monkey leaped from branch to branch with anger. Does Raven….like Stranger?
A tear ran down Beastboy's cheek. Was everything I did worthless?
Stranger paused from his position. "You'll what?"
He looked back at Raven. Did she say….what I think she said?
"I said….I'll…." Raven got choked up trying to say it. "I'll go."Stranger turned bright red. "You'll GO!"
He felt his heart skip two beats. He felt like he could fly to the sky and never come back. It was the greatest feeling in the world to put it in short.
Raven rolled her eyes. "Just because I said I'll go doesn't mean we're boyfriend and girlfriend."
Beastboy felt his pulse rise. Boyfriend and girlfriend…? What?
Stranger smiled. "Yes ma'am!"Raven felt happier that Stranger was joyful again. She smiled back just for a little while.
"So when do you want to go to the movies?" Stranger asked.
Raven looked down at the dirt. "Um…"
The titan started to think about what was planned on each day.
Well Robin didn't plan anything for tomorrow…so I'll go then. Raven thought.
"How about…tomorrow?" Raven assured Stranger. "There's nothing planned…"
Stranger grinned. "Tomorrow it is! What time?"
Raven began to think. "Seven?"
"Seven? GREAT!" Stranger leaped with joy.
Raven was getting afraid of Stranger's hyperness. He was so bouncy and playful. He was the total opposite of Raven.
"So do you want to meet up there or want me to pick you up?" Stranger asked.
Raven preferred meeting up there. She didn't want to be seen by her teammates with Stranger. "How about meeting up?"
"Okay! We'll meet at the movies tomorrow at seven." Stranger exclaimed.
Beastboy felt his monkey paws slip from the branch he was holding on. I can't believe this! Raven…why?
Okay maybe I was acting like a nutcase today, doesn't mean you should go on a date with some guy you hardly know! Beastboy thought. I just can't believe….that…..huh? Oh no!
Beastboy was so worked up on Raven and Stranger that he forgot about holding on to the branches. The green monkey lost his balance on the branch and fell off the tree.
He ended up dropping in front of Raven and Stranger's feet. It was a rough landing too!
Beastboy got up and stared at Raven and Stranger looking at him. Oh dude! My cover's blown!
Stranger's face stretched. "I didn't know Jump City had green monkeys."
Huh? Beastboy thought. Did Beastboy forget that he was still a monkey?
"Actually I never knew there really was such a thing as a green monkey." Stranger added confused.
Raven gazed at the monkey looking at her. Green monkeys?
The green monkey (Beastboy) stared back at them. He noticed Raven was looking suspiciously at him.
"Stranger, there isn't such thing as a green monkey…the only green monkey I know is….!" Raven stopped. Something just hit her.
Beastboy knew that Raven was remembering. Oh crap! I have to get out of here!
With that, the green monkey ran back up the hill and went into the tower.
Stranger, who was still wondering about green monkeys noticed that Raven had black fire covering her head. (Which means that she's angry)
"Uh…are you okay?" Stranger asked scared.
Raven got up from where she was sitting and started walking. Oh he's going to GET it! Stupid Beastboy! You're gonna get it!
Stranger looked at her bewildered. "Raven?"The titan started walking back to the tower. He's going to tell Robin that I was out. He better not…because he's not going to be in Jump City anymore. I'm going to send him to another dimension.
Stranger looked sad. "Where are you going?"
Raven, who was still walking up to the tower, stopped. "I have some business to take care of."
Stranger looked afraid. "Okay then…see you tomorrow."
Raven nodded and stomped back to the tower with anguishment. She had no other thought than to kill Beastboy. And that's the truth.
YAY! That's the end of chapter ten! Wasn't that laugh out loud comedy there? Well I thought it was. Okay now, in chapter eleven things are going to be heating up. Remember you guys, it's not at the climax yet. It's really getting close though. Chapter eleven is going to be about Raven going to the tower meeting up with Beastboy. This might actually bring a moment or two. So bring you're fluffiness with you. (lol!) And also in chapter eleven, the team will be set to fight Mumbo. (Hmmm….did someone have something planned for tomorrow?) Well that's all the stuff I can give you on chapter eleven. So you know what to do now do ya? If not, here's a hint. REVIEW! Please do so too! See you at Chapter Eleven.
