Oh my gods, you guys are leaving such sweet reviews!
Unexpected
"You can't just risk your life for me like that!" Raven growled, annoyance clear in her voice.
"You sure about that? Just watch." Robin shot back.
The two birds were arguing loudly in the middle of the living room, the other Titans watching with wide eyes. Starfire was in the middle of making one of her many (disgusting) puddings when it happened, the others didn't know if they should be relieved or not; at least they didn't have to eat it if she wasn't finished making it.
Raven rolled her eyes. "You don't always have to be in control, Robin!"
"This is not about me being in control!"
"Then what is it?!" She hissed, her voice growing louder as she stepped forward. "I know you, Robin. You have to be in control at all times, you can't handle it if you're not! Slade, the Brotherhood, that time you had a fight with Cyborg; all because you weren't in control!" Her eyes never left his face as she talked, despite her petite frame, she radiated power as she stood face to face with her leader.
Beast Boy flinched and looked between the two worriedly; even he could understand that his friend had gone a bit too far.
Robin just scoffed and looked away, his arms crossed. "You said it yourself, Rae, it's because I wasn't in control."
"You're insufferable!"
"Thanks, you're so nice."
She growled. "Are you being serious right now? What makes me so important that you risked the whole damn mission for my safety?! I'm just your friend, I mean as much to you as the others but I don't see you babying them!"
Cyborg whistled lowly and Starfire dropped her spoon. The alien princess couldn't understand how such a smart girl couldn't see the obvious feelings the Boy Wonder had for her, he made it almost as obvious as she herself did when she had a crush on him before she moved on with Aqualad.
But Raven's words just put him in the...what was it that Beast Boy said? Friend zone?
Robin didn't have time to respond, the dark sorceress was on a roll.
"What makes me so important? How come I'm so different that I need to be taken care of at all times?! Is it because I'm simply that unstable?!" Her teacup broke the angrier and more stressed she got.
"Rae-"
"I can take care of myself! I proved it many times before!"
"Raven-"
"Why can't you just leave me alone?!"
"BECAUSE I LOVE YOU!" He yelled, and the room went silent.
Raven gasped and stepped back in shock, multiple windows breaking as her powers lashed out. The contents of Starfire's bowl exploded, splattering the kitchen with a disgusting looking purple pudding...was it moving?
Beast Boy winced and rubbed his sensitive ears, his leader's yelling a bit too loud for his taste. "Well, it's about time he confessed." He muttered.
"No kidding." Cyborg scoffed, before handing Starfire a can of mustard. Looks like the alien princess had been right; it would take three months for the Boy Wonder to confess.
"I...I should go..." Robin muttered, finally realizing what he said. Batman was so going to kill him if he knew Robin let his emotions get the better of him. But that wasn't even the worst of his problems right now.
He backed away, refusing to look at the half-demon, his best friend, the person he just ruined his friendship with by confessing his feelings.
Beast Boy and Cyborg rolled their eyes when Raven still hadn't moved from her spot. Looks like she'd need a little push; even if she was going to kill them for it later.
Robin was almost at the door, so they needed to act quickly...or not. The boys held in a snicker as Starfire rolled her eyes and sighed, they watched as she dropped her now empty bowl on the counter and flew behind her leader. Her eyes glowing green with annoyance as she gave him a gentle push forward.
Beast Boy and Cyborg followed her lead, each Titan grabbing Raven's hand and dragging her forward until she stood close to the struggling boy. They didn't understand why he would though; yes, he had proven that he could beat all the Titans. But still, Starfire was freakishly strong, and she had a pretty tight grip on him, no way that he could escape.
Raven blinked when the boys let go of her; finally snapping out of her shocked state. Her mind was still processing what just happened.
Knowledge had been tied up and gagged by Brave, Happy was busy reviving Love (the purple emoticlone had fainted the moment those words escaped Robin's lips.) The pink emoticlone was focused entirely on helping the other emoticlone, but a goofy smile seemed to be settled permanently on her lips. Lazy jolted awake from the sudden confession; surprise written all over her face. Timid was worrying about multiple things but shut up quickly when Brave threatened to do the same to her as she did to Knowledge. Hell, even Rage was a blushing mess! Her face was almost the same color as her cloak!
...Which just made her angrier, but everyone had decided to ignore the moody emoticlone a long time ago.
But in the end, Love had been revived and was working with Brave. Raven's next actions could only be blamed on those two and those two alone.
She pulled the Boy Wonder forward and kissed him.
