Disclaimer: I don't own the teen titans but I do own the words to the
song At The Movies by Echodrome because I wrote it for my band...this song at
the moment doesn't have any guitar music to go with it yet...but oh well it
has some keyboard music so that'll do. And I should warn you that this is
going to be a LONG fic and by long I mean over forty chapters... and despite
the fact that Aqualad seems to be the best choice for Raven believe me he's
not... I have so much planned...mwahahahaha
Hand in Hand
Chapter Fifteen: At The Movies
"I am telling you comedy is the way to go!" whined Beast Boy as they were stood in a group around the ticket counter.
"No, an action film would be better!" argued Robin.
"I would like to watch a romance a film." Spoke Starfire from her position on Robin's arm.
"Hell no," protested Cyborg, "I ain't gonna watch no chick flick."
"What's wrong with chick flicks?" asked Terra coming to Starfire's defence. The girls had to stick together when they were choosing movies.
"Seven tickets for Van Helsing will be thirty dollars please." Said the girl from behind the counter.
Raven was silent as she handed the money over. The girl behind the counter handed over the tickets and smiled brightly, "Thank you, please come again."
Raven turned around and was met by five surprised stares. Aqualad was behind her so she couldn't see what his expression was like. "What?" she growled.
"Hey how come you get to choose?" asked Beast Boy looking distraught.
"Because it was my idea to go here so I get to choose the movie." She snapped as she handed out the tickets, "Now hurry up and get what you want because it starts in ten."
##Hey we're at the movies,
We're gonna see a flick,
You get the popcorn,
And I'll get the seats##
Beast Boy snatched his ticket from her and grumbled as he stomped over to the candy counter, he quickly got over his sour mood however as he realised they opened a whole new section dedicated to chocolate, his eyes went wide and his grin stretched from one pointed ear to the other. Terra saw the look and grabbed onto his arm before he dived head first into the sugary snacks.
Robin took his and Starfire's tickets, "Do you want a soda Star?" he asked the red haired girl next to him, he had decided, while driving to the cinema with Star behind him that it really was brotherly love he felt for Raven and he was gonna try and be happy for her, and at the same time he had finally taken the leap and asked Starfire to be his girlfriend, to which she had quickly agreed, and with such enthusiasm that Robin had almost lost his lead in the race with the T-Car.
##Girl's and boys,
Forget your toys,
We're gonna see a movie,
It's gonna rock your world##
"Oh yes Robin. I would love a Soda!" she replied with bright eyes, she grabbed his hand and dragged him away to the fridge. She paused and viewed the multitude of different bottles and cans on display. "Oh but there are so many! I have not heard of half of them!" she exclaimed.
Cyborg followed Beast Boy into the chocolate section only he knew what he wanted so he paid for it and then moved up towards the door. Holding his soda and popcorn in one hand he took a leaflet off a nearby shelf and flicked through it reading reviews on upcoming releases.
Raven shook her head at them and went straight into the screen room. She walked down the aisle, noticing that it was empty and chose a good seat, four rows from the back and dead centre. She sat down and waited.
Seconds ticked by and Aqualad arrived. He slid into the seat next to her. "So what's this film about then?"
"Vampires and werewolves." She whispered back.
"Oh." he said and then frowned, "I take it its horror then." She nodded.
The two of them sat in silence and waited for the others.
##So, hey what're we gonna see?
Romance, Horror or comedy? ##
Cyborg was the first to arrive, he squeezed past both Raven and Aqualad and sat down next to his gothic friend he grinned and offered them some popcorn. They both declined. Politely of course.
Robin and Starfire came in next; Robin sat next to Cyborg with Robin on her other side. Robin had some popcorn in his hands and Starfire seemed to have bought four cans of soda. Raven raised her eyebrows, she must be thirsty.
##How 'bout action?
A sci-fi or a chiller,
I'm in the mood for a drama,
And then a thriller##
Just as the lights dimmed Terra dropped into the seat next to Aqualad with Beast Boy on her left. Beast Boy had his arms filled with bags of chocolates and jelly animals and popcorn and bottle of soda, and ice-cream.
"Have you got enough?" asked Aqualad looking at the amount of food with wide eyes.
Beast Boy scowled, "No. Terra wouldn't let me get any nachos or crisps."
"Riiiiight..."
##Lets sit back and enjoy the show,
The lights are dimming and the movies coming on,
Pass me the popcorn,
Hey what? I'm hungry##
The adverts on the screen suddenly cut off and the opening credits to the film flickered on.
##Hey, don't flick sweets at me,
Pass me the soda,
Ooh, look at those two,
Making out on the back seat##
Half way through the film, everyone apart from Raven was staring at the screen with wide eyes.
"I do not like this movie!" whispered Starfire clinging onto Robin's arm. But Robin had frozen with one of his hands inside the bag of popcorn.
Cyborg had a straw in his mouth, but he wasn't drinking anything, his face was a picture of complete shock, "I'll never look at vampires the same way again..." he muttered around the straw.
Terra had buried her head in Beast Boy's shoulder and the green elf's jaw had dropped and several pieces of chocolate were falling out of his open mouth onto his lap.
Aqualad was staring at the screen in morbid fascination, he had never gone to the cinema before and was not used to the surround sound, but still he did not think he would like to meet a werewolf or a vampire any time soon.
Only Raven seemed to be fine, she was on the edge of her seat, her mouth curled into a slight smile, the movie was reflected in her eyes as she stared unblinking at the screen.
## So, hey what're we gonna see?
Romance, horror or comedy?
How 'bout action?
A sci-fi or a chiller,
I'm in the mood for a drama,
And after that a thriller##
The huge words 'THE END' rolled onto the screen.
Raven blinked herself free from the imaginary world that the movie had taken her into; she dusted off her jeans and stood up. She looked down at her team mates in surprise. They all seemed to have frozen like statues. "Uh, guys?"
Slowly as if in pain they all looked at her, mouths open.
"The movie's finished." She told them and watched the surprise register on their faces, "It wasn't that scary." She had no idea what was wrong with them, she hadn't found it scary at all, humorous in parts maybe, and it had had a good storyline, but she didn't think it was scary.
"Are you kidding?!" yelled Beast Boy leaping up, "That has got to be the scariest film I have seen in ages."
"You haven't seen that many then." Muttered Raven nonplussed.
He stuck his tongue out at her.
"That was awesome." Breathed Robin finally lifting his hand from the popcorn. He looked at his now sticky hand and grimacing he wiped it on his trouser leg.
"I did not like it." Murmured Starfire, "Are there really monsters like that in this world?" she asked fearfully still clinging to Robin as they too stood up and began leaving their seats.
"No Star. Don't worry." Assured Robin squeezing her hand and smiling at her.
"That was cool..." giggled Terra letting go of Beast Boy and flicking bits of stray popcorn from her hair, heaven knows how they got there like...but oh well. She found a jelly giraffe stuck to her neck and peeling it off she shook her head at her boyfriend. "How'd you manage to get food all over me?"
Beast Boy shrugged.
Aqualad frowned at the screen, "It was...interesting. I'm not sure I liked the ending..." he trailed off and then smiled at Raven, "Well, it was entertaining at any rate."
Cyborg jumped up suddenly, "That was the coolest werewolf I have ever seen, and when those little vampire kids came out, man! I was shiverin'!"
##Hey we're at the movies,
So let's have fun,
And we can watch another,
When this film is done##
Raven shrugged, "It was okay. It was nothing too special. I've seen better." She brushed past them and walked off.
Aqualad sighed and gave Terra a forlorn look. Terra shrugged and gave him a reassuring smile. She mouthed 'Don't worry.' At him and then turned to talk to Starfire.
"Let's go then!" yelled Cyborg, "And this time wonder boy, the T-car is gonna leave your bike in the dust!"
"Oh no it won't!" grinned Robin getting his keys out ready.
"Wanna bet?"
##We're at the movies,
We're at the movies,
So what shall we see? ##
