Chapter 12

Saturday rolled around quicker than expected, giving the Titans the excuse to scatter and enjoy the weekend. Raven though, only had one mission on her mind.

"Hey BB, are there books based off that game we have been playing?" she asked him as they landed in the city, holorings in place.

"Yeah, there's like, maybe a dozen?" he paused to think, "my comic book shop has most of them in, we can have a look there before lunch if you…"

"Let's go" Raven had grabbed his arm mid sentence and marched off down the street.

"It's the other way Rae."

When they eventually made it to the shop, Beast Boy was greeted by the member of staff at the counter, it seemed he was in often enough that they knew his disguise at a glance. When he pointed her straight to the display with the book series she desired, she was gone in a blink, looking over them with wide eyed fascination. They had all but the most recent, Beast Boy speaking to the owner and getting them to order it in, as Raven purchased the eleven they had in stock and her companion picked up his comic order, while blushing over the teasing he was getting about actually having a girlfriend to bring it; both heroes blushing at been referred to as a couple.

"I'm not going to see you for a while with all that," he joked as they left, getting an eye roll in response. When they were out of sight, Raven teleported their purchases home and headed for the cafe they had gone to for their first date, to grab a bite to eat.

Beast Boy had been trying to convince her to try some of the vegan options, which she had eventually agreed to, having liked the look of some of the offerings at this cafe. She eventually settled on tofu and beetroot salad, after some poking from Beast Boy. He ended up choosing to try the same thing, wanting to branch out as well from his usual burgers and hot dogs, though she couldn't help teasing him about how long he took to choose.

She had to admit, it was better than she was expecting, though given it was more complex than Beast Boy usually cooked, that might be part of why she was reluctant to try it. Even as the vegan, it looked like he had taken an interest in expanding his eating habits as well.

When they left hand in hand, he then proposed they go for a flight, once their food had settled, so they found a bench to sit down on in the meanwhile. Resting her head on his shoulder, while he put his arm around hers, she relaxed and just watched the world go past with him, enjoying the comfort of his presence. It was a pleasant day and she would have happily spent a few hours sat there with him. It was nice to just do simple things that couples did, but it was his presence relaxing her that did the most to her.

When they felt ready, they ducked into an alleyway, removed their disguises and took off into the sky. While Raven levitated herself to get around, unlike Beast Boy giving into his animal instincts, she had never flown up higher than needed to for any of their missions. It made her smile, watching him fly to and from in front of her, having the time of his life as a falcon as he soared on the breeze while waiting for her to ascend to catch up.

It was beautiful up here, not quite in the clouds, but high enough to see the city and the surrounding area laid out before them. Though it was cold, Beast Boy doing laps around her, before perching on her shoulder, having taken her cross legged position to admire the view.

"Alright alright, it's a nice view" she grinned, scratching the back of his head as he made a triumphant bird noise. Or at least, that's what she thought it was. They stayed there for a little while, before Raven got too cold to stand it any longer, and they headed down for a wooded hill overlooking town.

She curled up in his lap, her cape wrapped around them both while they warmed up, not complaining once about being cuddled, or even nuzzled. Resting there, taking in his warmth and positive emotions, she dozed a little until she could stop shivering.

"Sorry, should have made you come down sooner" she heard whispered in her ear, smiling to herself and pressing closer to him instead of answering. The silences between them now seemed more comfortable, both just happy resting there together.

He murmured softly when she eventually stirred, straddling his lap, then removing their rings as he watched. Her growing confidence was sexy, thought Beast Boy, as she leaned in and kissed him, his arms going under her cape and around her back, hers around his neck and chest.

They lost track of time, pressing against each other, only stopping for air as desire filled their eyes. She sat just right to grind against him, pushing his hands down to squeeze her ass as she rubbed against his growing arousal. His head was back, eyes closed and panting, her lips finding the weak spot on his jaw as their makeout sessions devolved into full on lapdance. She was being more accepting of her emotions and desires and right now she wanted him, the one person that was able to make her feel safe, calm, and above all, human.

It was right when she brought him close to losing it, either cumming in his clothes, or taking her right then and there, that they both felt the communicators go off. Animals in the nearby area scattered as a frustrated Raven screamed and broke a tree.

Beast Boy was in no condition to fight, she wasn't much better, but had much better control, seeing who the alert was for, she let the other Titans know she could handle this alone. Kissing her dazed lover, telling him she would see him back at the tower, before pushing him into a portal to his room.

There would be hell to pay for this.

"Yes, run from the genius of Doctor Light!" the villain shouted, blasting a car as he exited the technology store he had just robbed, carrying a sack containing his latest shopping list. I'm back and now I will…" He paused and turned, having felt a tap on his shoulder. Facing him, was a very pissed off looking Raven, four red eyes on display, tendrils of darkness thrashing from the growing portal that was her cape.

"I will sit here quietly and wait to go back to prison…" he finished, carefully setting his loot down, before laying face down on the ground and praying he was spared. Raven returned to her normal form, keeping an eye on the trembling villain until he was taken away.

Of course that joke just had to show up at the wrong time.

Beast Boy sat in the common room, having changed into his hero costume after a quick cold shower to calm down, awaiting word from Raven. He leapt to his feet when a familiar portal opened in front of him and Raven stepped out with her hood lowered. Before he could get a word out, she had grabbed the front of his suit and pulled him close.

"Your goddess is going to your room, she will bend over your desk and you will fuck her until Anger screams, got it?" she growled, frustrated desire thick in her voice, before she marched off down the corridor. After recovering from his shock, he raced off after her.

She had already thrown her cloak over his chair when he caught up, kicking the chair to one side as she started tugging her leotard off. Beast Boy was quick to join in, her bra tossed aside, the rest of their clothing just pushed around their ankles as he gripped her hips and rubbed his cock against her hot core, causing her to growl; which changed midway to a moan as he thrust into her. Hands on her hips and ass, he did as instructed, setting a hard, fast pace as he mounted her from behind over the desk. The look she gave him over her shoulder, the way she bit her lip, he stopped holding back and began taking the afternoon's frustrations out on her, riding her hard.

She had taken charge when returning to the tower, but was now more than happy to let Beast Boy lead, making a note to repeat this as she came, her arching back leaving her sensitive nipples exposed long enough for both of his hands to grab them. She rode out her second climax moaning meaningless words loudly as he pinched them hard and began losing control and fucking her wildly, seeking his own release which hit shortly after; leaving them both laid on the desk desperately trying to get their breath back.

Pushing him off her, kicking her tangled costume off her legs, turning to sit on the desk and pulling him back into a kiss, resting against him and humming to herself.

"Good boy, you did just what I asked," she whispered, scratching his head. She could almost see his tail wagging as he perked up, kissing her with pride as she wrapped her legs around him so he could carry her to the bed.

"Does this mean things are going well for us?" he asked, laying her on the bed and spooning with her while she dozed contentedly.

"Shush, sleepy cuddle time," was her response, before she rolled over to face him after a few minutes. "BB, you've been more patient with me than was fair to ask, I still don't know what I'm doing, but doing it with you, it's what I want to keep doing. You make me feel normal, beautiful and forget what I am for a little while. Things I never thought I'd feel." He couldn't think of anything to say that wouldn't ruin things, so just kissed her as lovingly as he could, her mind and body responding to the physical and mental affection; while he responded to her bodies renewed desires.

She moaned as his fingers slipped inside her, palm rubbing her clit while he fingered her, before she pulled him out and pinned him down to the bed.

"It's your goddess' turn, my pet" she grinned, straddling him and slowly burying him between her legs. "The others will be back soon, so we best make this quick…"

The next day, waking up before Beast Boy who despite having the evening to recover, she looked to have worn out yesterday. Not that it mattered, she had things to do as part of her new goal to be more open with her emotions and hopefully safer around people.

After breakfast, she spent the morning helping Cyborg upgrade his car again, remembering what she told him when it had first been revealed to the team. The more time he spent on it, the more it felt like a part of him and as her sudo big brother, it was comforting. Cyborg was initially surprised as it had been a while, but they had a good time, catching up on all the upgrades and he didn't even comment about Raven referring to the car like she did to him. He got it, he had helped her see that.

After lunch, she pinned down Robin for a chat. They had been hiding things from each other, despite the mental link, while she had an idea what it was, it wasn't confirmed until she spoke to him. He was the only person that took effort to read, but when she innocently asked how Starfire was doing, the spike in both heart and emotional beats gave him away. He was relieved when all he got was congratulations and told that if he broke Raven's best friend's heart, she would throw him off the roof. He also needed a reminder that hiding something emotional from an empath was pointless.

She eventually forced herself to see Starfire, stepping inside the princess's room and holding her arms open for a hug. Her ribs were still intact after Starfire recovered and swept her friend up in a hug, almost crying with joy when Raven returned the hug. Unlike Robin, she had no subtlety and flailed around when Raven asked about their relationship, calming her down by assuring her it was just 'the girl talk'.

She got a lot more details than she expected, Starfire was happy to have someone to gush to, but it did give her some ideas to try with Beast Boy sometime.

"Wait, they're doing what like rabbits?" Beast Boy asked in shock, while cuddling on her bed later.

"Starfire latched onto that phrase, they seem happy enough, so good for them."

"So why don't we let the others know about us?

"I… like having you to myself, it's nice if selfish," she admitted, burying her face in his neck. "But things have been feeling better, I've been feeling better, and I would like to keep this."

"Whatever you want, my goddess." he said, planting a kiss on her head while pulling her closer.
