A/N: I don't own Teen Titans or Young Justice. Without further ado, let's get on with the story.

Raven's Justice

Chapter 8: Movie Night

Raven's P.O.V.

So instead of watching a movie marathon we decided to just watch one movie. Wally and Robin had to go home in the afternoon. Apparently homework in this reality is more extensive than in mine, or maybe I just forgot how much time homework took up. But now that I think about it, I never grew up in the cookie-cutter life. I never went to school, I was mainly self-educated. Now that I'm hearing about all the issues in Wally's normal life I'm kind of glad I didn't have one. But that desire to settle down with a couple of kids never really goes away; it just becomes more and more unlikely. A distant fantasy that will most likely never come true, but hey a girl can dream can't she.

It took Kaldur, Wally, Dick, Superboy and I close to a half an hour to decide upon a movie. We finally, well I just took the reins and said we were going to watch the Princess Bride. The Princess Bride is one of my favorite movies of all time. I love the banter between Wesley and his opponents and especially the fight scenes. I probably more know trivia about this one movie than I do about math.

To get ready for our movie we rearranged the furniture, well I pointed and Superboy moved. He would literally just pick up the couch and set it down. The couch was in front of the coffee table which was directly in front of the t.v. There was an arm chair to the right of the couch and a bean bag to the left. I grabbed some blankets from around the cave, mainly mine. Wally started making his abnormally large amount of popcorn. While it was a normal movie snack, but I never liked it, it always got stuck in my teeth. Kaldur offered to get drinks; water for himself, lemonade for Robin, Gatorade for Wally, and jasmine tea for Superboy and I. Up until this point I never knew that Superboy liked tea, but he just said "Ditto" and gestured towards me when Kaldur asked him. By the time we settled down in front of the t.v. it was 11:30.

"Okay, who's seen the Princess Bride?" I asked as I got situated underneath my death star blanket. Only Robin raised his hand. He was lying on his back in the bean bag chair which he kind of claimed that as being his own spot.

"Well the rest of you guys are in for an awesome ride." I love introducing people to awesome things; I probably try Doctor Who next. But one step at a time.

The scene starts out with the boy being sick, and not dying sick but sick enough to skip school. The grandfather comes in with a large (as in a lot of pages) old- fashioned hard cover book. This seems as though this is a good introduction as any to set the scene for a fairy tale story. The first time the boy interrupts the grandfather Superboy leaned over to me and asked "Does he really intend to read the entire book in one sitting?" I looked at him, he was sitting up and leaning towards the center of the couch. So I sat up and leaned towards him and whispered back "Yeah, who tells just half a story? Now shush and watch?"

We both reposition ourselves so we were leaning against each other. It took a little while to get comfortable but our result was me leaning against his chest, his arm around my shoulders. My legs were tucked under a blanket and his feet were on coffee table. The sound of his heart beating underneath my ears was soothing. I couldn't remember a time when I was more comfortable than this. With the dim lights, the sound of a heart beating, and a warm blanket and body to be next too it was really no surprise to me that I was falling asleep. In the first time in a very long time I let myself completely relax.

Superboy's P.O.V.

I had no idea what the Princess Bride was. It sounded like a story that a 7 year old girl made up. I had no desire to see this 80s fairy tale movie but that all changed when I saw how Raven was talking about it. Her eyes lit up, and she was smiling.

I love to see her smile… wait what?

I may have come to terms about my feelings towards Raven, as in I realized that I felt something slightly romantic in nature towards her. I have no idea what to do about it, but I think the best plan of action was to just go with the flow. Which is bizarre to my character, I mean come on. I have perfected the glare, I rarely talk to anyone, and I'm literally less than a year old. Who would want to date me? But then as time went on as I began to warm up to Raven to say the least. She was the only constant in my life. If she wasn't here I don't know what I'd do. She's patient, kind, and has this dark mysterious past that makes me feel like I'm not alone. Living my life among people with extraordinary abilities has made me feel more at home with mine. Raven makes me feel at home, as if she was my home.

So if she wants to see this cheesy 80's that's fine by me.

Raven thought it would be best if we rearranged the furniture to accommodate the t.v. more, to make some popcorn, and get drinks before we sat down for the movie. I opted for the furniture moving, the benefits of having super strength makes moving things around really easy. Kaldur took drink duty, big surprise. Wally made the quickest bag of popcorn that I've ever seen, and then did about 10 more times. Robin just got comfortable on his little bean bag.

I plopped onto the couch when I hear Kaldur calling from the kitchen, asking what I wanted to drink. Raven was walking toward me with a fresh cup of tea. When she wasn't around I would make a cup of my own, I kept it a secret because I didn't want to try something new in front of Raven and figure out that I didn't like there by insulting her favorite drink. So I tried it a little while ago, and it turns out I do like tea. But now I was faced with a new dilemma of sorts, how do say 'I would like a cup of tea' without implying that I stole some of her personal stash. But I'm really over thinking this, like really over thinking this. So I'll just go with an over simplified answer of "Ditto".

Raven gave me a blank expression, and then gave me a soft smile. I smiled went to go grab the cup from Kaldur.

Raven and I took the couch when we the movie started. I took a corner of the couch and then Raven took the other. When she got all settled she looked and felt so far away. So I decided to take the first step, I leaned over to her and asked "Does he really intend to read the entire book in one sitting?"

She then leans over to respond with "Yeah, who tells just half a story? Now shush and watch?"

Then she repositioned herself so that she was leaning against my chest. I wrapped my arm around her as she fixed her blanket. Even though it may sound like a cliché she feels like a missing puzzle piece. I feel the tension that had been mounting up over the mission finally dissipate. It eased off with every passing minute she was in my arms. The movie went on, Wesley fell down the hill, Humperdink planned a wedding, and Wesley and Co. crashed it. Right around the moment when Wesley and Buttercup were making out did I hear a snore come from my right.

I looked down to see raven curled up in my lap. Her hair looked like a birds nest and I gently set my hand on her head, slowly running it through her hair. She sighed as could have sworn I saw a smile on her face. I then smiled because she smiled, and this cycle went for another 15 minutes or however long it took the movie to wrap up. I didn't realize the movie was over until Robin turned on the lights.

"Wally wake up, we need to go home. I don't know about you but I have homework to do, and I live with the overly paranoid bat parental figure who expected me home 5 minutes ago." He said with a yawn. It turns out that Raven wasn't the only one tired after last night's mission.

"Yeah, yeah I'm coming." Wally says after he stands up.

"I should probably head back home too. Thank you for the movie invitation; it was a lot of fun. Let Raven know when she wakes up." Kaldur says in a whisper, paying mind to the fact that Raven was still sleeping. I nodded in thanks, and within a few moments Raven and I were all alone.

Instead of waking her up, I grabbed the remote and put on live t.v. I put on Hawaii five-O. I've heard of the Islands of Hawaii but of course I haven't been, so might as well live vicariously through the show characters.

I was probably 2/3 of the way through an episode when I feel movement. Raven for the past hour or so has been facing towards the t.v. and in a tight ball. I wrapped the blanket back over her shoulder, seems as though she shrugged it off. I run my hand through her hair, and I hear her sigh.

Relaxing like this is always something to be treasured. I lean my head against the back of the couch. Finally let myself surrender to the exhaustion that had been plaguing me since I got back.

Raven's P.O.V.

I hear the sound of a Hawaiian folk song.

Why would I be hearing a Hawaiian song at the cave?

I open my eyes to see people surfing; well at least they were on surfboards. They were all sitting in a circle. Then I see them tossing ashes into the water. Oh, it's a Hawaiian funeral… that makes sense I guess.

I look around to see that I'm still in the living room, but everyone left. Then I realize that my pillow just moved. I looked down to see a pair of knee, and then I look up to see Superboy's sleeping face. His mouth was open and he looked so childlike, like didn't have a care in the world.

I sat up and leaned towards his sleeping figure. I've never seen him so at peace. I raised my hand towards his face. Not really knowing what I was doing but I was betting on the fact that he was fast asleep. Thankfully I'm not a betting woman because before I could get close to his face his hand grabbed my arm. When I glanced back at him to see that he was very much awake, then before either of us knew what was happening I kissed him.

I don't know if it was because he had that adorable look on his face. Or that… It just felt like the right moment.

This kiss was warm, passionate, comforting, exciting, and a bunch of things I couldn't think of in 10 seconds. His lips were soft and gentle and also surprisingly talented. When I tried to break it off Superboy put his hand on the back of my head holding me in place. So I obliged and thus starting the best make-out session of my life. His other hand was on the other side of my face while I put mine around his neck.

When we came up for air we just kind of stared at one another. I broke the silence with "Wow"

He responded almost immediately with a " I know right?"

I smiled. "Well, what happens now?" now my smile is turning into dread. What if he doesn't want a relationship? I know we just kissed but what if he didn't really like me that way. All these unhelpful thoughts were running through my head stopped when he leaned in and gave me a quick peck on the lips.

"Whatever we're ready for. We'll take it slow. Sound good?" He said with more confidence than I could muster at the moment.

I then let out a sigh of relief "Sounds great." I give him another kiss, lingering for only a few moments.

"I'm going to go to bed now. I'll see you tomorrow." I move to get up, but then Superboy grabbed my hand and pulled me back down into another kiss.

"Night." He says with a smirk on his face.

Superboy's P.O.V.

I have no idea what just happened.

But I have to say that is the best way to be woken up. I was half asleep when I felt something move around me. When I grabbed it I realized it was an arm. I opened my eyes to see Raven awake and trying to touch my face.

Then she kissed me, and I swear I felt fireworks. There was this electricity between us that made it exciting and comforting at the same time. She tried to break away but I pulled her back into the embrace. Up until this moment I don't think I've been this happy. Eventually we stop and she says "Wow"

So I say stupidly "I know right?" I cringe when I think back on that moment.

I felt like I was channeling Kid Flash, or some other idiot. I mean come on who says that after their first kiss/make-out whatever.

She smiles and then her face pales.

Raven then asks "Well, What happens now?"

I can tell she's beginning to overthink the entire situation. I have to give her credit for initiating the kiss, because I probably wouldn't have for at least another month or so. But I'm game for whatever she wants to do. All I want to do is make her happy; I would honestly give anything to keep her smiling.

To ease her mind I say "Whatever we're ready for. We'll take it slow. Sound good?"

I know nothing about relationships, but I'm smart enough to pick my battles and to know when to appease you girlfriend (or whatever the affiliation is). Apparently it was the right thing to say because she gave me another smile and then leaned down and gave me another kiss.

It was shorter than I would have hoped but she then says "I'm going to go to bed now. I'll see you tomorrow."

Before she leaves the couch completely I pull back into another kiss. "Night"

I'm really starting to like this kissing thing with Raven; this seems like a start of something good.

Raven's P.O.V.

Once I close my door everything starts to come into light. Superboy and I just kissed, and we just started a relationship, I think. It's exhilarating, confusing, and comforting all at the same time.

I smile as lean back on the door, taking in everything. I'm actually excited for what tomorrow holds.
