Chapter: 6
The Doom Patrol was home pretty quick. It was only a few minutes later they walked into the house. Elasta Girl went into the kitchen, motioning Beast Boy over too. She pulled the first aid kit down from one of the cupboards, opening it and taking out bandage wrap.
Beast Boy grimly followed. As childish as it sounded, HE HOPED SHE DIDN'T USE ANY THING THAT STUNG! He hated that stuff, it hurt. "What about my clothes?" He asked, looking down at his maroon stained sleeve. Trying to buy himself more time. He sat down at one of the chairs at the table as he waited for the sure stinging pain of the cleaning crap.
Terra came in after Beast Boy, taking a seat at the table and watching him sadly. That looked painful.
Elasta Girl pulled out the antidote next, opening it and pouring some of it onto a clean wash cloth. She looked over at Beast Boy's sleeve. "Just rip it off," she said. "There's no way that's ever going to come out now."
Beast Boy moaned and swung his head back for a moment. He then looked down at his arm, grumbling he ripped the sleeve of his uniform. It came off pretty well once he got it started. The wounds where on his upper arm, so he just tore the whole sleeve off. "Is this going to hurt?" He whimpered.
Terra watched Beast Boy, staring. She swallowed any spit in her mouth, trying to not drool. He looks good with his shirt torn like that… was the thought that literally popped into Terra's mind. She quickly looked away, trying to not blush. TERRA! she screamed at herself again. Bad! Bad thoughts! BAD! Do NOT think like that! she scorned.
Elasta Girl sighed. "Unfortunately, it's the antidote stings," she said. Terra looked up again, glancing at Beast Boy.
Beast Boy cringed. "You know, if I don't die from blood loss, I'm going to die of extreme shock and pain from that stuff." He eyed the antidote with a accusing look.
Elasta Girl shook her head. "You won't die, Beast Boy," she promised, starting over now. "Okay, it's going to sting a little," she warned before placing the wash cloth over his wounds and starting to clean his arm.
"OW!" Beast Boy screamed. "A little!" He whined. "Its like reliving the actual fight!" Okay, maybe he over-dramatized it a bit... just a little.
Terra flinched a little. She hated that stuff too.
"Knock it off, you little Drama King," Elasta Girl half laughed, ruffling his hair. She continued to dab the wounds off, cleaning it up as well as she could. After that was done, she wrapped his arm up with bandages, tight enough to keep it from bleeding too bad.
Terra lifted her head up a bit. Torn clothes… and bandages… The blonde mentally smacked herself. STOP THAT!
"Great, torn clothes bandages-" Why is Terra looking at me like that? "-and a bad hair day!" Beast Boy moaned as he turned his quick side glance from Terra to his arm.
Terra glanced away, then back at Beast Boy again. "It's not that bad," she assured him. Actually… he looks good with messy hair… GAH! Why won't you QUIT thinking that?
"Says you." Beast Boy snorted at Terra, though meant it in a joking way, as the grin on his face said. He turned back to Elasta Girl. "Am I done now nurse?" He joked.
"Yes, you're done now," Elasta Girl smiled. "You're free to go."
Terra stood up as Elasta Girl gathered the first aid kit things up and put the case back in the cupboard.
"Mento's probably searching for those chicks hu?" Beast Boy more of said then asked. He figured that's what Mento would be doing, seemed, him-ish enough.
"He might be," Elasta Girl said, picking up the wash cloth and wringing it out in the sink before throwing it away. "I wouldn't exactly doubt it."
Beast Boy looked around. Wanting to feel helpful he picked up the bloody sleeve and stood up, then walking over and dropping it in the trash can. "Do you need help with anything?" He asked Elasta Girl. "I'm bored."
"No," Elasta Girl smiled. "All the cleaning was finished yesterday. Thanks though."
Terra sighed. What could they do?
"Oh," Beast Boy also sighed with boredom. "I'm going to go get my gameboy then, at least till Mento gets a lead." He decided.
"I'll come with you," Terra declared. Hey, she was bored too.
"Okay! I might need help looking for it anyways." Beast Boy laughed before starting out of the kitchen to the living room where the stairs could be located by the door.
Elasta Girl watched the two leave before returning to the kitchen counter. She was thinking about possibly making cookies.
Terra followed Beast Boy to the living room and up the stairs. "Are you okay?" she asked, kind of out of nowhere. She meant about his arm. She still thought that it looked like it hurt.
Beast Boy turned to Terra. "Hmm?" He looked at his arm. "Oh yeah fine." He smiled then lifted his arm up in a weak attempt to show his scrawny muscles. "I just gotta deal with not having a sleeve for a little bit." He laughed.
"Heh, yeah," Terra laughed a bit. She still thought he looked good with a torn sleeve. She'd never say it though. Unless it slipped… which she really hoped it didn't. That'd be weird. And very, very embarrassing.
"And it feels weird. Having arm A. covered, and arm B. not." He joked.
Terra laughed. "Not like it looks bad though," Terra heard her own voice come. Her smile slipped off her face in about .2 seconds flat. Did she just say that… out loud? She quietly cleared her throat and looked away, down at the floor, feeling her cheeks become a little warmer.
Beast Boy took a minute to catch that before grinning. "Thanks," he laughed and looked over at Terra. Strangely, that made him feel... good for her to compliment him. Weird. Beast Boy opened his bed room door, and surprisingly his gameboy was on his nightstand.
Terra nodded, still glancing around more then looking at Beast Boy though. Okay, she slipped, it was a mistake. It wouldn't happen again. No sirree. "Got it?" she asked, glancing at Beast Boy.
Later that night Beast Boy was taking his turn with the gameboy on the couch. Like Terra and himself had done for the past few hours. They had spent most of the day during that battle, it had been around lunch time then, now it was just a little after supper. Mento had (as far as Beast Boy knew) been working the whole time, they had to take his food to him in the garage where he was working. And over the hours B thought he noticed the others around more then often. He would bet cleaning for a week that they were checking on Terra and him, they seemed paranoid after the closet. But he just ignored it and paid attention to the game.
Terra had noticed the adults hanging around more too. She figured she didn't blame them… but still. Why couldn't they just believe that Beast Boy and she hadn't actually done anything? She was purposely sitting really close to Beast Boy, leaning over to be able to see the screen of the gameboy.
Beast Boy's eyes glanced over at Terra, not being able to help his slightly flirty grin. Though when the clock struck ten he looked up, surprised Mento hadn't called them to bed. Or at least someone. Or if they had he just hadn't listened. The second was more likely.
"Brat boy, second time, bed." Robot Man said as he walked by.
"Five more minutes? I'm about to catch something!" Beast Boy looked back down at the game as he played.
Robot Man, being the push over for the green teenager he was, sighed. "Better not get me in trouble."
"Thanks Cliff!" Beast Boy thanked before putting his concentration back into the game.
Terra grinned, laughing quietly before returning her gaze to the screen of the game as well. Her eyes didn't stay there long though. She glanced up at Beast Boy, then looked to the floor again. She tended to do that a lot. Once again, she looked at Beast Boy, smiling, then the screen.
Beast Boy had caught Terra looking at him once, and had smiled, then looked down at the game again. His concentration didn't last long though when he heard a conversation coming from the kitchen.
"You know, people do need to sleep. Do you plan to just stay in there all night?" Robot Man half laughed.
"If I have too," Mento snorted.
"Steve, you're overworking yourself," Elasta Girl said, concern in her voice.
"Again," Negative Man put in.
Terra looked up towards the kitchen, cocking her head to the side.
"No I'm not." Mento sounded sure of himself on that one.
"Ooo, lets eavesdrop." Beast Boy whispered to Terra before setting the hand held game down and peeking over the back of the couch towards the kitchen entrance.
Terra nodded, grinning. She lived for eavesdropping! Okay, so not really, but it sure was fun. She followed his lead, looking over the back of the couch at the kitchen.
"You are too, and you know it," Elasta Girl's voice came.
"There's a new threat, a team, and being led by Rouge, I need to find out where they are." Mento admitted. "But I'm not over working."
"I don't know why we bother to change his mind anymore." Robot Man mused.
"Steve…" Elasta Girl trailed. "Get some sleep. It will do you good."
Terra looked over at Beast Boy, remembering the story he told her about the whole 'Brotherhood of Evil' thing. "Mento reminds me of Robin," she whispered to Beast Boy.
"I know, it's scary." Beast Boy whispered back to Terra, laughter tinting his voice.
"Rita, it's not even eleven yet!" Mento sounded more like a whining kid at that line other then an adult super hero. Marriage, weird things happened to you.
"You have until 11:30, and then I want you to get some sleep!" Elasta Girl half ordered. "You've done nothing today but study this team. You need rest."
Robot Man was trying not to bust into laughter at Elasta Girl telling MENTO what to do.
Mento grumbled, "Fine," he muttered.
Beast Boy snickered, covering his mouth. Though it got Mento's attention and he walked in to see the two. "What are you still doing up? Bed!"
Beast Boy moaned as he stood up and grabbed his gameboy, then starting up the stairs at a slug-pace.
"Faster! Supposed to -be in bed!" Mento ordered, and Beast Boy obeyed.
Terra sighed, but wasted no time in catching up with Beast Boy and getting away from Mento. Ever since the whole closet feeling, she'd gotten the feeling that Mento wasn't too fond of her. But, that might hopefully just be her imagination.
Beast Boy stopped at his bedroom, he figured he would skip brushing his teeth this one night. "Nighty night Ter," He smiled and waved at her before entering his room and closing the door. He changed into his PJ's with some trouble, when something touched his arm it stung. He hoped that wouldn't be the case for tomorrow as he climbed into bed and snuggled up.
"Good night, Beast Boy," Terra waved back, going to her room for her toothbrush and toothpaste. She did kind of a quick and lazy job of brushing her teeth and carried her stuff back with her. After throwing them down on her backpack, she changed into her pajamas, yawning and flung herself on the bed. It was funny how big the difference was, how much more tired she was at the end of a day if there was a fight, compared to if it was a peaceful day. Terra was asleep within minutes.
Beast Boy turned over in bed as morning rays came in through his window. He made angry noises and tried ducking his head under his pillow. Not how he wanted to wake up, wait, he didn't want to wake up period. But once awake the green teenager couldn't go back to sleep so shot up. Looking annoyed, he glanced at the clock that beeped 6:20, man; he lost ten minutes of sleep!
Beast Boy grunted as he walked out of his room, not bothering to change yet. He still had ten minutes right? What the heck could he do though this early? Nothing that he- wait, CARTOONS! Ha, it had been months since he watched a cartoon really. He looked at Terra's door and stopped, and who else better to watch them with? He walked over and knocked on the door, "Terra!" He yelled.
Terra distantly heard the knock on her door, and then Beast Boy calling her name. She opened her eyes and looked at the clock. 6:20. "Noooo," she whined, stretching her word out and throwing her pillow over her head again. "What?" she called back, her voice muffled from the pillow over her head.
"Terra," Beast Boy called in his most pitiful voice. "Please get up!"
Terra opened one eyes and glared at the darkness under her pillow before lifting her head up from under the pillow. Darn that pitiful voice… she threw the covers off of her and literally dragged her feet over to the door. She rubbed her eyes and yawned before opening the door. "What?" she asked, grumpily, though mostly joking now.
"YAY!" Beast Boy cheered when Terra did get up. "C'mon! I need someone to watch cartoons with!" He reached over and grabbed her wrist then started dragging her towards the stairs with him, before Terra could resist.
"Cartoons?" Terra asked, allowing him to just pull her away. She hadn't watched cartoons in a long time. She thought for a minute before grinning. "Would we be able to watch cartoons, sitting on the couch, and eating cereal?" That was something EVERY kid had to do sometime in their life.
"I don't see why not, if Elasta Girl hasn't made breakfast yet." Beast Boy laughed as he let go of her wrist and jogged down the stairs.
Terra grinned and followed him down the stairs. Elasta Girl saw them, giving them a questioning look. "What are you two doing up so early?" she asked. It DEFINITELY wasn't like them to be up before they were supposed to be.
"I blame the sun for rising and my curtains for not closing themselves." Beast Boy joked.
"And I blame Beast Boy," Terra pointed to him, accusingly, though joking.
Elasta Girl laughed a little bit.
Beast Boy grinned proudly. "Can we just have cereal for breakfast this morning?" He asked Elasta Girl with his famous puppy face.
"Of course you can," Elasta Girl smiled. "Cereal's in the cabinet."
"Thanks Rita," Beast Boy darted past her and into the kitchen. In about 5.3 seconds he had the cereal, and milk poured in his bowl and had a spoon out.
Terra followed Beast Boy, opening the cabinet and looking at the different cereals. "No way…" she said slowly, pulling down a box of cereal. "Captain Crunch? I haven't has this since I was a kid!" she squealed excitedly. She poured herself a bowl, added milk and also got a spoon.
Beast Boy laughed at Terra before taking his bowl of frosted flakes into the living room and sitting on the couch Indian style. Grabbing the remote with one hand and balancing the bowl in the other.
Terra followed Beast Boy, grinning as she sat down next to him, bringing her knees up to her chest. "So what kind of cartoons are we watching?" she asked.
"Watcha wanna watch?" Beast Boy asked as he flipping through the channels.
"Eh," Terra shrugged. "Whatever's on." She ate a spoonful of her cereal and grinned. This was her favorite cereal ever.
Beast Boy stopped flipping at a random channel. HA! The old pokemon, all well. He didn't care really. He set the remote down and ate his cereal as he watched the starting show.
Robot Man came in, yawning, he glanced at the yellow and green heads he saw from behind the couch and smirked. Grabbing the camera from the nearby table he was able to walk in front of the two teens and snapping a picture.
"That's a keeper." He laughed.
"Dude!" Beast Boy whined, though laughed too.
"AH!" Terra yelped. "My eyes! I'm blind!" So, she'd exaggerated a little teensy bit. She was seeing little flashing dots all over though. Well, if she wasn't completely awake before, she sure was now.
Robot Man laughed as he walked away with the Polaroid picture. "I gotta send this to your friends."
"Dude!" Beast Boy shouted again.
"What?" Terra whined. "You're joking, right?" she called after him.
"Nope, it should make a cute postcard." Robot Man mused.
"Sometimes I think this is how Cyborg will be as a grown up." Beast Boy muttered, though his voice was tinted with laughing.
"There's no doubt in my mind," Terra laughed.
"Raven could be like Larry... you know our similarities are really scary." Beast Boy spooned another wet mouthful of cereal into his mouth.
Terra laughed a little before taking another bite of cereal. "You know, you're right," she said.
"STEVE! YOU GOTTA EAT!" Robot Man called from the kitchen.
A few minutes later Mento walked into the kitchen from outside with a folder full of papers and an annoyed face. "Breakfast isn't that important," he muttered.
Terra eyes were still glued to the screen. She glanced over at Beast Boy as the show continued on, then back at the TV. She felt like a five year old doing this. …It was kinda fun.
Beast Boy had his spoon hanging out of the corner of his mouth, cereal gone already. Though most of the milk stayed in there. He would eat it with cereal, but not by itself. It was still dairy.
Terra tipped the bowl up to her lips, gulping down the remaining milk. She finished it off and put her spoon in the bowl, setting it down on the coffee table for the time being.
Beast Boy looked like a zombie, sitting there with a little bit of drool coming out of his mouth with the spoon hanging in the corner. Wide eyes as he watched the TV. And the bowl hanging in his hands uselessly.
Terra looked over at Beast Boy and laughed. She snapped her fingers in his face, trying to snap him out of it.
Beast Boy blinked a few times and looked over at Terra and laughed a little, letting his spoon fall. His ears twitched as Mento called the Doom Patrol in, guess he found something out. "Duty calls," Beast Boy joked to Terra as he stood up and walked into the kitchen, setting his bowl in the sink though keeping a hold of his spoon for some reason.
Terra stood and picked her empty bowl up, following Beast Boy. She set her bowl and spoon in the sink atop his.
"I think I have a lead on who two of those girls were." Mento declared. "Two fitting their description, broke into the Brain's old lair. When the guards woke up, Madam Rouge was gone, and they left with no trace." He read a police report out. "And- BEAST BOY, PAY ATTENTION!"
Beast Boy looked up from where he was balancing the spoon on his nose. "Sorry!" He took the spoon with one hand and grinned innocently. "I'm all ears," he wiggled his elf ears with the same grin.
Mento rolled his eyes before continuing his findings on the new 'team'.
Terra tried not to laugh, succeeding too, mostly in fear of getting yelled at. She couldn't help the smile on her face though.
It took Mento all around about ten minutes to explain, half the time though he was snapping for Beast Boy to pay attention, finally making him put the spoon in the sink instead of playing with it. "In all, we need to be ready for another attack. With Rouge leading those girls, I don't know what will happen." He concluded.
"Are we done?" Beast Boy asked. Mento sighed, "Yes Beast Boy, we're done."
"So, we should be ready for anything, then?" Elasta Girl asked.
Terra pushed herself away from the counter top she'd been leaning on.
Mento nodded at his wife. "That means light practice, I don't need a worn out team."
"Be lazy, gotcha!" Beast Boy laughed as he left the room to the living room, taking the stairs.
"That's not what I said!" Mento called after him.
Terra laughed and went after Beast Boy, following him upstairs.
"I gotta change, see you in a few." Beast Boy told Terra over his shoulder before turning into his room and closing the door.
Terra nodded and went to her own room, closing the door behind her before changing into her regular yellow shorts and black crop top. She pulled on socks, boots, gloves, and her belt before leaving the room again and once more closing the door.
Beast Boy looked at his torn uniform then one of his spares, not sure which he SHOULD wear. In a guilty thought he liked that Terra liked the one without a sleeve, but it felt weird. And it was just a bandage, not a cast... so he pulled on the spare uniform and walked out of his room while pulling his silver and black gloves on. Tugging at them slightly for no real reason.
Terra spotted Beast Boy and smiled. "So, was there anything you wanted to do today?" she asked as she walked up to him.
Beast Boy shrugged, "I don't know, nothing I can really think of. We could call and bug the others, or uh-..." Beast Boy shrugged again. He did have to admit, the gameboy was entertaining for only so long.
Terra sighed and looked down at the ground, thinking for a moment. "Hmm… well… we could always just go… on a walk, catch a movie, or go to the mall or something," she listed with a shrug, looking back up.
Beast Boy grinned. "Good idea! Hang on, I'm going to go check in with Rita first." He turned around and jogged down the stairs at a faster speed then thought possible. "Rita!" He called.
"Right here!" Elasta Girl called from the kitchen. She set the rag she had down and started over towards the staircase.
Beast Boy stopped at the foot of the stairs and leaned over the railing, watching Elasta Girl as he talked. "Can me and Terra go out for a walk? Please?"
Elasta Girl thought briefly, considering his question. "Sure, I don't see why not," she said.
Beast Boy smiled, "Thank you! We'll only be maybe an hour or two." He turned back around and jogged up the stairs at the same fast rate. "She said we could go!" He shouted happily at Terra as he jogged down the hall.
Terra smiled. "Awesome! Are you ready, or is there something you need to grab?" she asked. She was ready to go. She might want to grab her wallet though, just incase.
"Yeah, my money. I think I left it in my other uniform." Beast Boy walked backwards so he could face Terra as he neared his room. "Know why? BECUASE I AM BUYING! No exceptions!" He laughed before turning around and entering his room. He looked around briefly where did he put that uniform last night? Or was it this morning. Eh, either way, he had a missing pair of black and purple pants.
"Think what you want to," Terra called after him, going back to her room. She opened the door, going straight to her backpack to start digging through it for her wallet… at the bottom of her bag. She finally got it out though and put it in her pocket, standing up and leaving her room once more.
Beast Boy looked around, lazily at first then he got on his hands and knees to look for the lost pair of pants. Finally looking under his bed. He stuck his tongue out as his hand searched around. His hand felt something hard, not pants but he pulled it out. He sat up and held the item in both hands. The long object was wooden in the middle, and framed with a solid metal. He looked the item over, flipping it to the other side, to see the name LOGAN carved into the wood.
FLAST BACK:
Little Garfield sat in his parents room sobbing quietly to himself. He was curled up in a little ball, snuggling his toy monkey close. After a few minutes he sat up on the old matress on the floor that had been used as a bed. It was just a small little hut they had been staying in, and he had to leave soon.
"Garfield? It's time to go." Said a gental male voice.
Gar looked towards the exit and whiped his eyes. He looked around the room brielfy, not sure why, but grabbed his fathers old hunting knife. He guessed he wanted somthing of his parents to keep with him, he had his monkey his mother have bought him, and now his fathers old knife.
END.
He smiled half heartedly as he brought the blade out of the knife. Surprisingly it was still sharp, or at least looked like it. He had no intentions of finding out as he closed it and set the knife aside. Digging under his bed a little longer he found the pants, pulled the money out he stuffed it in his current pocket. Beast Boy grabbed the knife and bolted out of his room and over towards Terra. "Guess what I found!"
Terra looked over at Beast Boy, her smile immediately finding its way back to her face. "What?" she asked, walking up to him.
Beast Boy held the knife up. "This," He grinned and handed it out to her. "It's real too!"
Terra took the knife, turning it over in her hands a few times. "Cool!" she exclaimed, handing it back to him. "Where'd you find it?"
"Under my bed, where else?" Beast Boy laughed as he took the knife back and flipped it over, showing the last name. "It was my dad's. Ironically, he used to hunt." Beast Boy laughed, though it sounded half fake.
Terra laughed a little. "So, are you ready to go?" she asked.
"Yep." Beast Boy smiled, "Oh yeah, here." He handed the knife to her. "Weird random present." He joked.
Terra looked down at the knife, then back up at Beast Boy. She shook her head. "You keep it," she said. "It was your dad's."
"So? I'm trusting you with it." Beast Boy smiled. He didn't know what was urging him to give it to her; he just had a feeling about it. Like some little voice in his head was telling him to give it to her, some kind of sixth sense.
Terra looked down, putting her hand over it, but not picking it up. In other words, she was almost holding his hand. "Only if you're really sure," she said.
"Really, really. I'm sure you'll take better care of it then I could." Beast Boy joked with a warm smile.
Terra stared at him as if reading his mind, making absolutely SURE he was sure. When she was satisfied, she smiled and picked the blade up out of his hand. "Thanks."
"No prob," Beast Boy smiled again, standing there a minute as if glued to his current place before shaking his head. "C'mon! We're wasting day light!"
Terra pocketed the knife and then started down the hall. "Okay, c'mon," she said. "Where are we going anyways? Movie, walk, mall?"
"Don't know, it's up to the lad- I mean, tomboy." Beast Boy joshed her as he walked at her side.
"Movies then, I guess?" Terra suggested. She didn't know what she wanted to see, or even what was out for that matter. That was helpful.
"Sure, lets catch the first comedy playing!" Beast Boy laughed as he jogged down the stairs. "WE'RE LEAVING NOW!" He yelled, just to make sure someone knew they would be gone.
"Bye Beast Boy, bye Terra!" Elasta Girl called from the kitchen.
"See ya," Terra called back as they made their way to the front door.
Beast Boy jogged ahead and got the door for Terra, "See you in a few!"
Terra smiled at Beast Boy as she passed through the door. "Okay, you're gonna have to show me where the movie theatre is, cause I've never been here and I have no clue," she laughed.
"I'll try to remember, it's been years." Beast Boy laughed as he closed the door behind him and morphed into a green falcon, flying into town was easier then walking.
Terra lifted up a piece of earth to follow Beast Boy on. The two flew around a little bit, searching for the movie theatre. It didn't take all that long until they came to the main part of town. It wasn't too far down the road that the movie theatre could finally be seen.
Beast Boy swooped down and resumed human form, looking up at Terra and grinned, ignoring the looks they both got from the passer bys.
Terra brought the large piece of earth to a stop and jumped off next to Beast Boy. "Lead the way," she offered, grinning.
"As you wish." Beast Boy did a mock bow and started leading the way towards the movies, they had landed a little ways from it. And to his surprise the streets were starting to clear.
Terra laughed and followed Beast Boy, looking around the place as they went.
A few minutes later they came to the ticket booth, Beast Boy ordered two of a total random comedy, and didn't care if Terra got mad at him, he paid for both of them then turned to her. "Shall we continue?" He asked with a half smirk.
Terra glared at Beast Boy, jokingly of course. "You suck," she said, shaking her head. "I brought money. That's a trip to my room that's now wasted." She grinned, joking again. What she really meant was that he didn't have to pay for her.
"Yep, I'm evil, say it all you want. How dare I pay." Beast Boy laughed as he swung his arm around her shoulders and started walking over to the entrance.
"Exactly!" Terra said, hanging her head, and pouting as she walked with him. "How DARE you pay!" she wailed, trying to suppress her laughter. She lifted her head up though, grinning.
"Look out world, a new villain is on the loose! HE PAYS!" Beast Boy busted into laughter, tilting his head against Terra's for a moment before suppressing the rest.
Terra giggled, soon that turned to a laugh. She loved his laugh! She smiled sweetly when he rested his head on hers, blushing a little. "C'mon, let's go," she said, taking his hand and continuing to walk to the theatre.
Beast Boy pushed the door open with his spare hand (after removing his arm from her shoulders) and pulled Terra inside before it shut.
"Are you hungry?" Terra asked, nodding toward the snack bars. It was full of unhealthy foods, candy, sugar, soda, popcorn (with the option of extra butter or salt), nachos, and hot dogs. Probably more. That was one food Terra would never eat ever again. Hot dogs. Bleh.
"No, because I don't want you buying anything for me, I know you will. I know you." Beast Boy laughed.
Terra heaved an annoyed sigh. "Then I'll buy US something to SHARE," she said, attempting to pull herself towards the snack bars. She wasn't really hungry, she just wanted to buy SOMETHING so that he didn't pay for ALL of it.
"If its for US then I am helping." Beast Boy chimed.
"Not if it means you're only gonna pay more then you already have! Forget it," Terra laughed, punching him lightly on the shoulder on the arm that wasn't hurt.
"Okay fine, if it keeps you from buying I win." Beast Boy smirked proudly.
Terra shook her head again. "Someday, someday I'll get you back. Maybe not today. Maybe not tomorrow. Maybe not even next year, but SOMEday I WILL pay you back." The blonde smiled through her threat.
"Mmm hm, I'll be looking forward to it." Beast Boy smiled. "So did you want anything or what?"
"No," Terra said, smiling again. "Let's just go catch the movie before we miss the previews!" Some people thought she was crazy, but she loved the previews!
Beast Boy laughed and handed the man in front of the hall their tickets then bolted past, finding their room he walked in, still holding Terra's hand. "Where do you want to sit?" He whispered to her.
"Top row," Terra whispered back. The top row was where she usually sat. She didn't know why, but she liked the top row.
"Top it is! Anything for our little tomboy princess." Beast Boy teased her before walking to the side, through the empty top row seats then sitting down.
Terra half glared at Beast Boy before running up the steps to the top row. She moved down the row, guessing where the seat closest to the exact middle of the large screen was and sat down.
Beast Boy sat quietly throughout the whole movie- phst yeah right! He was laughing most of the time; he couldn't help it and tried muffling his snorts and giggles. People were always shushing him, but it did little good. After the movie Beast Boy stood up, letting out his fits of laughter while he could, he offered his hand down to Terra to help her up. They movie had been around two hours long, they should be heading back.
Terra had enjoyed the movie. Whatever she hadn't laughed at cause she found it stupid, she always DID laugh though. Laughter was contagious and with Beast Boy cracking up, it was hard to not crack up with him. She grinned and took his hand in hers before standing up.
Beast Boy smiled at Terra "we should be getting back before we get in trouble for being gone for longer then a couple hours." He only half joked.
"Okay," Terra agreed, starting to walk down the aisle of seats. She liked this theatre, the aisles were actually big enough for you to walk through without stepping on other peoples' toes. Or, it looked like it.
Beast Boy walked behind her, still holding her hand for his own reasons. Though once out of the aisle he pushed ahead after letting go of her hand and held the door open for Terra once more, and whoever else came out.
Terra smiled again. "Thanks," she said, giving a small laugh. She waited outside the door for him, leaned up against the wall so she wouldn't be in anyone's way.
Beast Boy pushed his way through the entrance and joined Terra, "C'mon lets go!" He laughed as he jogged ahead.
Terra ran after Beast Boy, catching up with him seconds later. "You lead again, I don't remember how we got here and I don't wanna be responsible for getting us lost," she half laughed.
Beast Boy laughed as he led Terra out of the movies and into the sunlight. "IT BURRNS!" He creamed, falling to his knees. "THE LIGHT BURNS USSSS!"
Terra started cracking up at the sight of Beast Boy on his knees, screaming 'it burns'. Sure, they were getting weird looks. But did they care? Never. "C'mon, Beast Boy, let's go," she laughed, tugging at his hand.
"Party pooper," Beast Boy jokingly accused. "We're going to be late, wanna take a shortcut?" He ask as he stood up and wrapping his hand over Terra's.
"Yeah, sure," Terra smiled, jumping up on the rock she had flown over here in a sitting position so her legs dangled over the edge. "Shortcuts are always good when you're gonna be late."
Beast Boy smiled and nodded, "Can I ride? Please? I don't feel like flying." He pouted as he looked up at Terra with the puppy pout face.
The blonde geomancer smiled and laughed again. "Course you can," she said, not being able to say no to that face. He was too good at it.
Beast Boy gave a little victory dance before scrambling up on the rock. He sat down next to Terra with his hands behind him, holding him up. "Okay, go that way." Beast Boy pointed behind a building. "That will lead you to an ally that you take, over the fence then it's a pretty straight shot back to the mansion." He told her proudly.
"Kay," Terra smiled. She kept the rock pretty low to the ground, just to it was barely a couple inches off the ground. She lifted her feet up onto the edge of the rock, her knees up to her chest, holding herself up like Beast Boy did. She turned behind the building she was told to and started down the ally.
Beast Boy bobbled his head from side to side as if a song was playing, well it was in his head. His feet where also banging against the rock. Overall it was a peaceful ride until he heard something. Beast Boy's face lost the usual carefree left and a more cautious one replaced it. "Did you hear that?" He turned to Terra.
Terra slowed the rock down as she turned to look at Beast Boy. "Hear what?" she asked, giving him a questioning look. He had better ears then her.
Beast Boy looked away as if looking for the source, "It was probably just a cat, never-" he didn't get to finish his sentence before a long arm reached out of no where and dragged the green teenager down.
