Disclaimer: Don't own them. Maybe that's a good thing though…Do you know how unbelievably sappy and romantic and RobinRaven it would be if I did? D Unfortunately, I do not own She Will Be Loved by Maroon 5 either. There is no justice in this world.

VampireSelene: Thank you!

Darkofthenight: Hey, I know you. Glad to see you back. Thanks for your compliments.

cutter-with-a-cause: I did look at your story. Check the reviews. I agree with the whole thing about Robin and Raven. Those people are complete and total haters. I am making a face at them right now.

Tecna: Yeah I know it was serious AWW material. I scare myself sometimes with that…Glad you like it!

lil runt: Once again: serious AW material. I know. My RobinStar reviewers are amazing.

I'm really glad people are liking this story. It makes me happier than ice cream cones! . Hope this chapter meets expectations.

Ladies and Gentlemen: I give you the amazing…Chapter 4! (This is where you applaud and cheer.)

Robin stood with his arms around her, still looking down at the top of her violet hair. He had forgotten about getting revenge (for the time being, at least) and was now content merely because she hadn't killed him. It came as a big surprise that he was all in one piece, considering that a) he'd taken her brooch, b) he'd asked her to go swimming, c) he'd picked her up, and d) he'd carried her into the water and gotten her wet. That last one alone would usually damn anyone to a lifetime of pain and torture. Batman's former sidekick laughed, amused by the image of Raven in a bathing suit, putting plagues upon one of them, most likely the impish green elf. The mystic with the ashen skin looked up. "Something funny?" He directed his gaze downward at her voice, his mask connecting with a pair of clear lavender eyes.

Beauty queen of only eighteen

She had some trouble with herself

He was always there to help her

She always belonged to someone else

"Just…imagining you and Beast Boy." The look he got would have sent any normal human straight to hell, or at least purgatory. "Not like that." She relaxed enough to let some of the venom fade from her expression, restoring the flat poker face she always wore. Robin held her eyes for a few moments longer, noticing that the darkest member of the team was actually very pretty. WHAT! his mind screamed at him. This is Raven we're talking about here! RAVEN! Irritated by his tactless thoughts, he shut them up quickly. Flashing her a grin, the Titan leader scooped the Azarethan up a second time.

"What are you doing?" He smiled again.

"Getting you back." The water rose from his waist to his stomach, then up to his shoulders. Dropping his arms, he chuckled as her head went under, then came back up. She seized his shoulders and shoved him beneath the waves herself. He sank lower and lower, murky darkness closing in around him. Then suddenly, the teen hero began rocketing to the surface, breaking the still water right in front of his female companion. Her eyes had gone wide with shock when he hadn't come back immediately from the black depths. Now she gave him such a hate stare that she felt her eyes turn pure, cold white.

"Don't DO that to me!" Around them, the smooth bay leapt higher and stronger, tossing itself around. "You made me think I drowned you!" The boy wonder simply regarded her from behind his mask. Her anger was kind of cute. Letting out a frustrated growl, she soaked him with a barrage of foaming water, at which he only smiled. "You're impossible," she muttered, getting an affirmative nod. He approached her again, securing her in his arms.

I drove for miles and miles

And wound up at your door

I've had you so many times but somehow

I want more

She fidgeted, still snarling at him low in her throat. When he didn't release her, she fought him outright. Seeing as there was a great different in height and weight, he maintained his current position with relative ease. "Wow, Raven."

"Shut up bird brain." The gothic girl had stopped battling him and was now looking up. He had the unsettling feeling that she could see through his mask, into his eyes. It continued like that for endless moments, until he broke the silence.

"I have to ask you something." Taking her lack of speech as an affirmative, he went on. "Can I kiss you?" His mind started up again. WHAT! Grinning at the incredulous look she wore, he squeezed her waist. "It won't hurt. I promise I'll try not to bite you." She allowed a short derisive laugh, then a slight nod. Somewhat amazed that he was still breathing, Robin leaned down and placed his lips against hers.

I don't mind spending every day

Out on your corner in the pouring rain

Look for the girl with the broken smile

Ask her if she wants to stay awhile

And she will be loved

Somehow, he had kissed her and survived. It was amazing. Raven opened her eyes and saw him waiting for certain death. "I'll let you live, don't worry." As an afterthought, she added, "You're lucky though." They began wading back towards the T-Tower, stepping onto the warm sand and heading up the path winding between sturdy trees. Right in front of the door, he stopped her for a second, brushing her damp hair back. She hugged him, a faint smile on the corners of her mouth. "I suppose it could have been worse." Robin grinned. Coming from her, that was the equivalent to a thousand praises. The metal door opened silently and they stepped in.

Tap on my window, knock on my door

I want to make you feel beautiful

I know I tend to get so insecure

It doesn't matter anymore

The room was deserted. Assuming that the other Titans went to bed, the birds sat down on the couch. "I really did have a good time tonight Robin," the violet-eyed witch told him. He tried his best to hide the shock. Raven was admitting she had a good time? THE Raven?

"Damn, I'm good," the masked wonder replied. She let out a deep, exasperated breath.

"You never fail to amaze me."

"That's because I'm just that cool."

"No, it just seems that you never run out of stupid things to say." He laughed.

"Got me there." She nodded. "So does this mean I get another shot?"

"Oh, I guess so…" Seeing his doubtful face, the sorceress quickly reassured him. "That means yes." Her leader smiled.

"Cool. And you know, Rave," he paused, "I'm always available if you want to talk."

It's not always rainbows and butterflies

It's compromise that moves us along

My heart is full and my door's always open

You can come anytime you want

"Except for the times when no one can find you," she quipped.

"Well…yeah." That got a smile, and he decided that she really needed to be happy more often.

Tap on my window, knock on my door

I want to make you feel beautiful

I don't mind spending every day

Out on your corner in the pouring rain, oh

Look for the girl with the broken smile

Ask her if she wants to stay awhile

"You know," the boy said conversationally, "you're really quite lovely when you don't glare." As if on cue, a level 4 compliment-me-and-die look radiated from her features. "No, no, Raven. When you don't glare." Looking at her, he began to realize just how much he would go through for this dark beauty. Tonight had been a start; he had survived without so much as a scratch. That had to count for something.

I don't mind spending everyday

Out on your corner in the pouring rain

"I'm going to bed," she informed him, getting up from the cushions. "If I have to stay out here with your arrogant maleness, I may just suffocate from lack of modesty." The teen smirked.

"Then why are you standing there talking to me? Isn't that just wasting time that could be put to use leaving the room?" Her amethyst eyes looked toward the ceiling as she turned around to leave. "Good night, Raven." She glanced back.

"Night."

"On second thought, I'll walk you there." He accompanied her from the room and down the hall. When they arrived at her room, she gazed up at him. "Yes?" A faint smile showed slightly around her lips, right before he kissed them. Speechless, she just watched him, unable to find the words.

Please don't try so hard to say goodbye

"Sleep well, Rave," he said softly. She smiled and disappeared into the room. The only sound was her door swishing shut and closing with a small click.

So there you go. I'm trying to make my chapters longer because personally, I don't like short chapters. Review please. I love hearing from you guys.
