A/N: I'm so, so, so, so, so sorry it took me SOOOOOO long for me to update but school has been hectic. And then there's boys (lol) Anyway here's my update, FINALLY. (Oh yeah. Some of you are complaining that Raven was OOC but it's suppose to be like that because Raven is opening up to Jason so…but maybe I did over do it a bit.)

Chap.11

Jason tossed and turned in the guest bed. He couldn't sleep. Too many things were racing through his head.

He rose and stood at the bedside. He made his way out the room and down the hall. Bits of hair fell in front of his face as he ran his fingers through it. X sighed. What was he doing there? He had no place there. He didn't belong.

He reached the bathroom and splashed his face with water. He looked at himself in the mirror. 'Who have I become?' he thought to himself. This girl twisted his life upside down and he barely knew her. What did she have that no one else did? But still…she made him feel…feel…he couldn't even explain it.

He sighed again after he left the bathroom. When he reached his room he stopped. He glanced over his shoulder at Raven's room. He shook his head. After a few moment of fighting with himself he finally gave in.

He knocked on her door softly. There came no answer so he knocked harder. There were a few groans from within the room. He felt kind of guilty for slightly waking her so he began to walk away, but just then he heard her voice.

"Who's there?" her voice sounded the words softly. "It's me," he began, "but I didn't mean to wake you so-" "No it's fine," she said, cutting him off, followed by a soft yawn. The door was opened with a quick swish. She was still lying on her bed, on her side, so he knew she had opened the door with her powers.

He smiled. She looked so innocent lying on her bed, her breathing so solemn. He walked slowly to the side of her bed and she scooted over lazily to make room for him. He hesitantly sat on her bed next to her.

"So what's wrong?" she asked after a few silent moments. He shifted uncomfortably to a position to where he was halfway laying and halfway sitting. "Nothing. What would make you say that?"

She turned to face him on her side, and then rested her head in her palm. "Well, for one thing you're in my room at," she paused for a second and looked passed X at something, "3:07 in the morning."

Jason turned around, in disbelief, to look, at what he believed to be, a clock. The bright red numbers read 3:07.

He opened his mouth, most likely to apologize for bothering her so late, or early rather. But he was cut off by Raven, who was finishing up the statement she started earlier.

"Plus having the powers to sense people's emotions does help a little," she put a silly smirk her face. He gave a quick snort and shifted to where he was laying completely on the bed.

Raven was now lying on her stomach, with her arms folded across her pillow, and her head lying on top of them, eyes closed. X was on his back staring blankly at the ceiling. "What you thinking 'bout?" she asked, her eyes still closed.

He turned his head to face her "Nothing," he said soft and low. He began to grow tired. He was still looking at her. He brushed some fallen hairs out of her face. She shifted a little. He saw she had fallen asleep. Why was he here? And on top of that she let him be there. How'd they let it get so far as to be trusting enough of each other to be in the same room with no problems? She hasn't even considered turning him in to his knowledge. But what if this was all a trick? To get him close enough so he would come over with no hesitation and get jumped by all the Titans unarmed. She wouldn't do that. He told himself. But that was just it. That was the problem. He knew she wouldn't do that because they were good….friends. Them friends? It was wrong, he knew, but it felt so right. He loved being around her, so much he didn't care about what was risking. And neither did she. X needed to sort this stuff out. He took one last look at Raven then rose from the bed and left for the guest room.

Next Morning

Raven's eyes open slowly. She moaned as she stretched. She sat up quickly. "Jason?" She searched her room and there was no sight of him. She looked at her clock. It's was 12:39.

She sighed, got of bed and headed for her bathroom.

------------------------

Jason looked up from his cereal to see three bug-eyed girls in front of him. All he was in was a pair of boxer and an under shirt because he wasn't exactly prepared for staying over.

He just got up too, so he didn't think of changing until now. He looked at the clock. It read 12:47.

"Um," he began after finishing the rest of his cereal, "I better go get into my cloths and get going."

He rose from his seat and headed down the hall. Halfway to his room he turned the corner and…

BAM!

"Oh, sorry," came a sweet, soft voice. "No problem," smiled Jason as he rose from the ground. He stretched out his hand and offered to help her up. She took his hand and stood on her feet. "Where you headed?" she asked. "I need to get home. It's getting a little…stalkative in the atmosphere." he said referring to the three female titans.

She smiled, knowing what he was talking about. "But I need to go anyway, I have erins to run." He said. She just nodded. "Don't worry they're all legal." he whispered with a smirk on his face. Her body seemed to relax a little more then it had been. "I want to hang out later though," he began, changing the subject, "You want to go out again tonight?" She scratched the back of her neck. "Umm…" was all she could muster out. She seemed to be thinking. He raised an eyebrow. "Something wrong?" he asked. "Don't get me wrong, I would love to, but… well last night Robin was kinda-"

She was cut off by his voice "This is about Robin? Raven he's your leader not your dad. You can do what you want." He was more disappointed then angry. He thought that they were getting somewhere and that asshole Robin was ruining it. "I'm not concerned because he's my leader but because he's my friend." There was a bit of annoyance in her eyes. "Don't you see this is what he wants." He said. Raven rolled her eyes. "Oh yeah, I'm sure he's set out to make sure we don't hang out." He grew frustrated. Did she seriously not know what he was talking about? "He's jealous Raven. I could see it burning in his eyes last night." She thought he was crazy. "He was just worried. You know that's what friends do for each other."

She couldn't believe he was acting like this. He was blowing out of proportion. She wasn't cutting him off completely. She wanted to hang out but maybe tomorrow or something. Besides they weren't supposed to be friends in the first place. She thought he would be more expectant of it. Them having to stop hanging out. Not that it was happening now but still. There was no way they were going to stay friends for ever. She figured they had to stop being friends later on anyway but now that she saw it in her head she felt kind of empty. Did she really not care about them having to stop being friends? Yeah of course she didn't care. Right?

Confusion only rose in Raven. She had completely forgotten they were fighting. "So are you gonna answer?" he asked. He had apparently asked a question she missed. "Huh?" she asked with a confused look on her face. He laughed in frustration. He just began walk away. When he passed her she reach for him.

"Wait," she said in a soft voice. As she grabbed his hand the images were back. The ones she had seen the first time they went to the movies. He pulled away and they were gone. He just kept walking. Raven just rolled her eyes and walked toward the living room. She was too stubborn to try and reason with him. But she was still concerned. What exactly happened to him as a kid?

----------------------------

Jason walked into the living room where all the Titans and Titans East were. A glanced at Raven for a second then turned and started for the door. "Where are you going?" a high pitched voice came from the living room. Everyone turn to face him except Raven, who was currently starring at the screen that said PAUSE on it. BB and Cyborge were in the middle of one of their games with everyone but Raven, Terra, and Bumble Bee were waiting for their turn.

"I just have to go do some things but see ya'll later," he said and then left. Raven sighed silently to herself. She didn't want to not be friends with him. But how could they keep it up? They were bond to found out. She didn't care right then tough. All she could think about was finding out what happened to Red X.

----------------------------

It was stupid of a fight, he knew, but it was something he had to get off his chest. Robin was like a little kid. They only want something when they can't have it. He never showed any interest before I came into the picture. Now he's just trying to guilt Raven into hanging out with him more than me. And I wouldn't be surprised if she did. Who was I kidding? They were friends longer then me and her. They're close and no thief is gonna get between that.

Jason sighed and flopped down on the worn out couch that was against the wall in the broken down shack he was currently occupying. Why is this bothering me so much? We're enemies anyway right? It's no big deal if I never see her again, as a friend anyway. Maybe after I pay off his debt to Jack he can move somewhere else. Like a nice rich neighborhood.

A smile played across his face as he thought of that. But Raven kept popping into his head. He looked at the clock that hung on the wall across from him. It was 6:32 p.m.

Maybe I could go see her and apologize. No. You're Red X, cold hearted thief. You can't go around making people think you're soft now. But he was starting not to care. Raven was the closest friend he had right now. He wanted to talk to her for hours on end and go to stupid fairs and crap with her just because in was with her.

He'd just go apologize. He grabbed his keys and jacket and left.

----------------------------

Meanwhile

"Raven?" said a concerned voice. She snapped out of thought and looked into masked eyes. "Hey Robin," she said. "Are you ok?" he asked, the concerned tone still clear in his voice. "Yeah, I was just thinking 'bout some things," she still seemed distracted. "Well you look like you need to take a load off." He said with a kind smile. She looked from the kitchen counter to his face. She shrugged a little. "Wanna go to get a coffee or something? I heard the café on the corner of Russell St." Raven smiled and nodded. She needed something to do to keep Jason off her mind.

After both of them went to go get changed they headed out the door. "Be back in like in hour or so ok?" Robin yelled to the others who were entranced in some Lifetime movie. Even the guys, who were drag into the living room by the girls to watch it, were glued to the screen.

"Yeah, yeah see ya later," Cyborge said and they left.

----------------------------------------

There was a knock on the Titans door. "Door open," yelled BB. They were still watching the movie which meant none of them wanted to get up. It had been like ten minutes since Robin

and Raven had left. The door slid open and Jason walked through. "Hey guys, have you seen-"

he was cut off by multiple shushes from the group of teens gathered around the T.V. "She' with Robin somewhere," said Speedy so that Jason wouldn't interrupt the movie anymore.

What? I knew that jerk had a thing for her! He grew angry. It was a commercial so Terra let her eyes wander from the screen to Jason. "You could hang here until they get back though," she said then turned back to the screen.

He figured he'd just wait there until Raven and him get back. Then he'd see what would happen from there.
