Beast Boy hummed to himself as he cooked tofu scrambled eggs. He was feeling unusually chipper this morning, bright-eyed and bushy-tailed, as it were. He had woken up at about the time Raven usually did, and gone up to the roof to watch the sunrise with her. She wasn't there, which meant she was probably meditating in her room.
Cyborg yawned tremendously as he walked into the kitchen. "Dude, are you making that crap again, B?"
"Hey, tofu's good for you!"
Cyborg started rummaging in the fridge for the bacon. "The day you can prove that to me is the day I'll eat it."
Beast Boy grimaced. "It's better for you than bacon."
"Oh, yeah?"
Robin walked in as they began their usual morning arguement, shaking his head and grinning ruefully. "Guys, can't you just agree to disagree for once?"
"He started it!" Beast Boy cried.
"Did not!" The arguement resumed anew just as Starfire walked in.
"Good morning, friend Robin! Beast Boy and Cyborg are preparing the morning feast as always?"
Robin chuckled. "Yep, same debate they always have."
"Then I shall cook this morning!" Starfire moved past the squabbling duo, who seemed to have forgotten about making breakfast.
Breakfast was ready shortly thereafter. "So, Star, what did you make?" Robin asked.
"I have decided to experiment with Earth foods." She placed a tray piled with dark brown, lumpy flat disks in front of the three waiting Titans. "They are pancakes, with my own additions!"
The first bites were shockingly bad. Beast Boy gagged, and Robin guzzled his coffee to try to drown the taste. Cyborg choked out, "Man, what's in these!"
Starfire started displaying the ingredients she used. "Small silver fish, the radish of horses, and the most wonderful hot peppers."
"Anchovies and horseradish?" Beast Boy coughed, "I think I'd be better off with bacon!"
"Do you not like the meal I have prepared?" Starfire asked.
Robin replied, looking somewhat green, "They're great, Star, but I guess we're not in the mood for pancakes."
"Then I shall consume them myself!" she declared, squirting mustard onto her pancakes.
"Hey, where's Raven this morning? She's usually up by now." Cyborg wondered.
"I think she's meditating," Beast Boy said.
Just then, Raven walked into the room smiling.
"Morning, Raven. You look cheerful today." Robin said.
"I...had a good night." Raven answered. She hummed softly to herself as she made herself tea.
Beast Boy stared at her. "I don't think I've ever seen Raven this happy before. It's kinda scary."
"Hey, it's great that she's in a good mood," Cyborg interjected quietly. "Let's just enjoy it."
Starfire looked up from her meal. "Friend Raven, you are most joyous this morning. Please tell us of the goodness of your night, so that we may share in your joy."
Raven sat down at the table and stared into her mug. What should I tell them? I don't think they'd appreciate the idea of me falling for a criminal. I should just be vague about it. "Well, after we got back, I went out again, and I...met someone."
"Like a boyfriend sort of someone?" Robin asked with a grin.
"Sort of..." Raven blushed slightly.
Starfire seized Raven in a tremendous hug. "That is most wonderful news! You must allow us to meet him!"
"Well, you only just met the guy, right?" Beast Boy asked. Raven nodded as best she could with Starfire hugging the air out of her lungs. "So, he's not technically your boyfriend?" He hoped he didn't sound as jealous as he felt.
Raven inhaled deeply as Starfire released her. "No, technically not," she answered, raising an eyebrow at Beast Boy. He avoided looking at her.

The day had passed by fairly uneventfully. Robin and Starfire went to the mall together, while Cyborg and Beast Boy played video games most of the day.
Raven sat in her room, trying to concentrate on the book she was reading. Her thoughts kept drifting back to the pink-haired sorceress she had spent the night with...
Jinx dropped the inflatable boat into the water and climbed in, continuously reminding herself of what a bad idea this was. If they catch me, I'm dead, she thought as she paddled towards the island Titans Tower perched on. But I don't know how else to contact her other than leaving a note on her door. I'm a hopeless idiot for doing this, Raven, so you damn well better say yes.
The raft ground onto the shore and Jinx hopped out quickly, hidden behind a rock. Taking a deep breath, she sprinted to the door, stuck the note she had written in the door, rang the bell, and dashed back behind the rock. After a few minutes, the door slid open. Cyborg looked back and forth, and Jinx prayed he wouldn't spot her. He noticed the letter on the ground, picked it up and went back inside. Jinx let out the breath she had been holding. "Mission accomplished," she sighed as she pushed her small boat off the shore.
"Raven! Letter for you!" Cyborg called as he came back in. Raven sat bolt upright in her room, and hurried out to find him. "Bet I know who this is from," he said as he handed it to her.
I bet you don't, she thought as she thanked him and returned to her room to read it.
Rae-Rae,
You make a comfy addition to my bed. Not to mention a great person to talk to. Having a friend is great! (this was accompanied by a smiley face) Anyways, how about a movie tonight? Regal Cinema, 6:30? Dress incognito. Well, as incognito as two girls with such unique hair can be. My treat.
Love,
Jinxy-poo
P.S. Why no pet names?
Raven laughed, then glanced at the clock. 5:30? I'd better get going. She started digging through her closet in search of something other than her usual uniform. She settled on a pair of black jeans and a dark blue collared shirt, pulling a black t-shirt over it. Black sneakers she hadn't worn once completed her outfit. She grabbed a zip-up hoodie and pulled it on as she left.
"Guys? I'm going out," she called to Beast Boy and Cyborg as she left.
"Have fun," Cyborg answered. Beast Boy stared after her, feeling hurt and jealous.
"Cy? I think I'm gonna go somewhere, too."
"Aww, man. What am I supposed to do here all by myself?" Cyborg complained.
Beast Boy shrugged as he walked out. "I don't know, wash your car?"

Raven looked around the front of the movie theater. 6:25, and Jinx was nowhere in sight. Raven started pacing slowly in front of the theater. Where is she?
She was startled by someone grabbing her from behing in a flying hug. "Man, sneaking up on you is just too easy." Jinx giggled in her ear. Raven turned around as Jinx let go of her. Her date had her hair down in sort of an organized mess, and was wearing baggy green cargo pants, a t-shirt saying 'Do you mind? I'm trying to ignore you.', spiked wristbands, and bright red sneakers.
Raven gave her a questioning look. "Are you colorblind, or did you get dressed in the dark?"
Jinx made a face at her. "Did you want to stay out here making fun of me all night, or go in and watch a movie?"
"I don't know," Raven mock-considered, "I'm trying to decide which would be more fun."
Jinx laughed and took her by the arm. "Let's go."
"And I thought I told you not to call me Rae-Rae."
Jinx laughed. "Well, I'm giving you a nickname, whether you like it or not. You are now Ravy."
Rolling her eyes, Raven replied, "Fine, if it makes you happy, you can call me that."
The two of them entered the movie theater just as the movie was starting, taking seats near the aisle. The fact that it was dark caused Raven to miss seeing a familiar green face sitting two rows behind them.
About fifteen minutes into the movie, Jinx decided to have a little fun. The place isn't that crowded, and I bet no one's even paying attention. Jinx sneaked her hand over towards Raven...
...who jumped almost a foot out of her seat as Jinx grabbed her breast. "Why did you do that?" She hissed.
"Oops, I was going for the popcorn," Jinx said coyly.
"We don't even have popcorn," Raven muttered. Well, two can play at that game, she thought. Jinx had turned her attention back to the movie, and the purple-haired psion leaned in close, holding her breath. In a fluid motion, she seized the other girl's earlobe in her teeth. Jinx stifled a yelp as Raven delicately nibbled her ear, blowing short puffs of air and making her jump. She tried not to moan as Raven kissed her neck up and down, grazing the soft skin with her teeth.
Holy shit, is that Raven? Beast Boy leaned forward to get a better look. She's totally making out with someone! Pink hair? Who is that? Beast Boy decided he needed to get a better look. Transforming into a fly, he flew up over the couple. Raven was definetly kissing a girl's neck, and that pink hair and those eyes made it...Jinx? Beast Boy's jaw dropped, or at least it would have if flies had jaws. He flew unsteadily back to his seat, plopping down in a state of shock. Raven...and...and Jinx? WHAT THE FUCK!
