AN/ Mostly Raven and Beast Boy in this chapter. Lemon scene as well. Thank you all!
Two days later...
Raven sat in the hotel bathroom trying to focus. Her head was spinning and even as she stared at the contact list on her phone she couldn't make out the letters. She let go a deep breath and muttered something in Latin. As wiped her cheeks and pressed the button positive she was dialing Star, not Gar.
Gar looked at the screen more than confused, she hadn't said more than two words to him since he got drunk and voiced his opinion. He quickly answered it his voice rough as he spoke. "Hey Rae what's up?"
Raven deep down knew that the person who answered wasn't Starfire. Not even close. But that didn't stop her form surling her words out so fast she couldn't catch them in time. "Hey I need a favor, and I would appreciate if you didn't mention this to Rob. I'm sorta in trouble."
Gar heart raced . "Where are you and what can I do?" He asked worried standing up and getting dressed.
She stilled as her brain connected. "You're not Starfire." She stated. "I meant to call Star." Star would ask questions but it was much easier to fool her than it was anyone else.
"Just tell me where you are Rae. I promise I won't ask you questions or judge you. I just want to make sure you're okay." He was already dressed keys in hand. His eyes bright and focusing on trying to find his shoes.
"Sliverton Motel." She smacked her hand on the porcelain sink. Making her curse. "I'm dizzy." she told him. She rubbed her palm hearing his breaths on the phone.
"Talk to me, I'm on my way. What kind trouble you in?" He asked getting in the car he was sure he'd break the laws of physics as he tried to get to her.
Raven sighed "I don't know what I did but Jason is pissed. I think because I suggested something. I woke up alone I made it to the bathroom." she stated like she was proud of herself.
"Can I ask what you suggested?" He turned down the street wishing he was closer and knew what he'd fnd outside the bathroom door. His eyes focused on the roads as he got closer. "And I need your room number."
A sigh escaped her mouth as she couldn't remember the number. She tumbled out of the bathroom. "I don't know. You seem upset." she noted the low in his voice. "12" she answered opening the door.
"I'm worried about you is all." He was there in seconds scooping her into his arms. He put his phone in his pocket and gathered any of her loose things. He took a deep breath. "You ready to come home?" She nodded. She wrapped her arms around him. Her usual smell was more like Jason's and overpowered by strong liquor.
"Are you going to tell him?" She asked running her hand over his whiskers on his chin.
He carried her to the car thankful he had grabbed a bottle of water for her. "Tell who Rae?" His stomach felt ill from her smell. "I'm going to take you home and help you get cleaned up."
"Dick. He'll throw me off the team." she could only nod as she drank the water greedily. Once they were home she rested her head on his shoulder.
"It's not my place Rae. If I haven't said it yet why would I now?" He grabbed another bottle of water as he walked through the kitchen. "Do you want to shower?"
She nodded clinging to him like a child. Her mind was spinning. "Don't leave me." She mumbled.
Gar sighed. "I wouldn't dream of it." He ran her a bath before pulling the curtain so it would cover all but her head. He set her down again. "Do you need help getting undressed and into the water?"
She thought for a moment. "No." she mumbled she pulled off her shirt and bra without thought she at this point was too far gone to notice modesty. She slid her pants down and shakily got into the shower.
Gar sat on the outside of the tub concentrating on not the fact that the girl of his dreams was in the bath washing her hair and body. "Rae about the other night I'm sorry. I shouldn't stick my nose where it doesn't belong. I just .. I don't want to see you hurt." He held her hand as she rinse her hair.
She didn't even realized that she had been crying until she sniffed. She climbed out of the shower feeling more sober by the second. She placed herself in a towel and then moved too the storage bins above the sink. Inside was fresh clothing, just like there always was. She always was prepared. She wiped her tears with the back of her hand and opened the door. "I'd like to get dress." She stated looking at him knowing that he would respect her every way possible.
By the time she emerged out of the bathroom her spirits had only become more somber. "I've made a terrible mistake." She announced looking at him. "I've let myself fall away from what makes me, me." She had combed her hair looking like a different person coming out then when she was taken in. "And you shouldn't be sorry for stating the truth. I want Jason to see the errors of his ways, and for some reason I thought I could fix him, but after tonight I know he'll never change." She rubbed her arm through her long sleeve shirt.
Garfield sighed as he pulled her into his arms. He kissed the top of her head gently. "You're still you, Raven. And sometimes when we care about people our judgement gets clouded. You're human we make mistakes. I don't know him like you do but I do know he has to want to change if it's going to happen." he slowly pulled back from the embrace. "Does he make you happy?"
Raven sat stiff in his arms but she didn't pull away. Finally she let her head fall into his shoulder her heart heavy. "It's not the kind of happiness that you think I deserve." she knew what he'd say.
Gar nodded. "I think you deserve the world. Just like all my friends do. But you have to do what makes you happy." he didn't pull away just letting her rest their before lifting her into his arms. He carried her towards her room.
"Thanks for coming to get me." She whispered she was emotionally drained. Her vision was blurring as she fought to keep them focused.
He was doing his best to feed her with all positive thoughts and feelings. He could tell she needed it. "Any time what are friend for?" He got hit with the sudden urge to kiss her. He shook his head clear.
She shifted uncomfortably as a new thought entered her mind. "uh maybe you could just lay with me until I fall asleep don't want to be alone." Her violet eyes looked up at him.
Gar nodded. "Okay, do you want be to change into a cat? I know you find that comforting." Truth was if he laid with her he'd want to touch her. His green eyes watching hers. "How are you feeling?" She climbed into the bed and nodded. "Better thank you."
Gar took her nod to mean yes on the cat, he chose a tiger this time curling next to her. Big enough to be warm and a good pillow, so if she wanted she could lay on him.
Raven let the first smile she had all night grace her lips. "Now I feel like a princess.". She commented letting her hands trail up and down his fur. Gar wanted to tell her she was, but hated talking in this form so he nuzzled into her, purring. Raven let her body relax forcing her thoughts to be anywhere but on Jason. She eventually found sleep with out any dreams at all. Gar laid next to her the entire time giving of protective vibes and good emotions.
Raven woke up with the dawn her head pounding. She reached out to grab the water on her bed side table but noticed a green arm wrapped around her. She shifted and noticed that indeed her eyes didn't deceive her. "Garfield." She said softly. Her mind was telling her nothing happened last night but she couldn't help but wonder why they were in such a position in her bed.
Gar groaned then it dawned on him where he was. "Sorry I must have fallen asleep... Do you need anything?" He was blushing as he slowly got up.
She sat up holding her head. "Will you go get the Ibuprofen from the bathroom usually I can heal but I guess not all headaches are the same." She grabbed the water and began quenching her parched throat.
"Oh this is your first isn't it?" He asked as he came back with the pain meds and a Gatorade. "Drink this. What did you drink last night?"
She nodded taking the stuff from him. "I drank the rest of his bottle... I think it was Gin. I am not really sure. It burned like a mother going down."
"Did it taste like pine trees?" He asked watching her. "Do you want me to make some food?"
Raven thought for a moment. "Yeah I suppose that is one way to describe it. I can make it just give me a minute to get up." She ran her hand through her hair and realized it was clean. "Did I shower last night?"
Gar nodded a blush coming over his face. "That you did." He held is hand out to help her up.
She noticed his blush and realized something. "You bathed me didn't you?" She asked plainly.
"I rinsed your hair.. I stayed on my side of the curtain.. You asked me not to leave you." He sighed feeling like he did something wrong. He'd be lying if he said he hadn't like what he had saw.
She nodded thinking. "All is forgiven then. Thank you for helping me. I pay you back I promise."
"There is nothing to pay me back for." He walked towards her door. "I also told Robin you got food poisoning and wouldn't make in to this morning's training. " She nodded and thanked him, watched him leave as her stomach tied up in knots. She began to think it would have been better if she did have food poisoning. Gar turned at the door. "If you need anything, I'll leave my door open." With that he disappeared.
A few days later Raven was in the common room meditating when her phone went off. She looked over at Robin before slipping out the door. "Hello?" She answered.
Jason sounded annoyed. "Little Bird.. Can you come out and play?"
She clicked her tongue anger spiking through her. "You left me all alone in some skeevy motel. You never called or text to see if I was okay. So that begs the question of do you even care about me? or am I just the girl you fuck when you're horny?"
"You didn't call out text me either bird. So don't start with me. You were perfectly fine when I left, I knew you were safe in that room. You were gone when I got back." His own anger bit back.
"Oh so you did come back? Well that's nice." She walked down the hall towards her room. "You didn't answer my question."
"If I didn't care I'd have exposed you by now. Hell kept you as a pet." He said his annoyance growing.
She rolled her eyes wondering if all relationships were like this. The bitter truth stung as she realized he could do that, if he had chosen to."I'm not sneaking out tonight. I've made plans in the morning and I know if I snuck out you'd beg me to sleep there."
"It's the middle of the afternoon Bird.. Do you care about me? Am I half as important to you as those damn do gooders?"
"You're not turning this around onto me. The first night we went all the way I told you I care about you. I even told you that I wasn't sure how to express the feeling I was feeling. Not once have you told me the same thing I'm starting to believe you just are using me for your own gain."
"And you think I believe you? No one's ever truly cares about me. You know what Bird forget it. I'll find something else to do tonight." He hung up the phone. Jason was a mess he needed her, but had no idea how to tell her what he was feeling.
Gar stood behind her his head cocked to the side. "Rae?" He said softly. He had heard most of the conversation. If she turned around he'd open his arms to her.
Raven let her hand drop from her ear. As she felt her heart crushing. Jason wasn't one for sentiments but why was he being so damn difficult. She had wanted to see him play with his dark locks as he kissed her neck. Tears welled up in her eyes as she heard her name. She turned looking to see Gar just feet from her. She let out a quiet sob and the light bulb burst.
Gar did the only thing he could think to do, he pulled her into his arms. "You want to talk about it?"
"No he's being and asshole." She mumbled breathing into him.
Gar nodded he didn't let her go. "Wanna have a drink with me?"
She nodded. " No pine juice though." She murmured wrapping her arm around his back.
He wrapped his arm around her and guided her to his room. It was picked up, almost spotless, in fact. He told her to sit on his bed while he picked up a few stray items. "Do you want it to be sweet, or taste like nothing is in it, or to burn?" He asked looking into her eyes.
"Not a lot of burn maybe just a mild one." She let her hand move over his comforter.
He poured her a bourbon sour, it's what he drank most of the time. He sat on the bed next to her. "Wanna tell me what he did?"
"He left me in motel. It's complicated." She drank slowly the flavor lingering in her mouth. "Can we not talk about it?" She looked around his room.
Gar nodded. "What would you like to talk about then beau-Rae..?"
Raven finished her drink and asked for another. She wasn't one for small talk. Somehow they got a topic about old movies and before long he said something that made her giggle. She stopped realizing that she had laughed and was blushing. "Thanks for making me feel better." She thanked sincerely.
"Any time beautiful." He clinked her his glass to hers as he refilled both cups. "I love seein' you smile." The drinks were making him talk freely and without any care. She could feel the buzz from the drinks moving through her veins. She hiccup and finished the rest of her drink. She placed it down and looked at him before busting up laughing. It was clear she was a happy drunk. Her hands fiddling in her lap.
Garfield wanted to kiss her, god how he wanted to show her what it was like to be with a man who would treat her right. He wanted to worship her in the way he felt she deserved. He ran his tongue over his lips. She seemed to noticed his lips. She could feel his emotions and that made her feel nervous. She looked at him and then stated the obvious. "You want to kiss me?"
Gar blushed. "All the time." He sighed. "I know you're not mine to kiss .."
Raven nodded her eyes looking at his. She leaned in licking her lips. "You must really like me." She whispered. "Even though I'm not a good person."
"Love is blind and I see through your flaws." He couldn't help himself and longer. So in one motion he kissed her. His lips soft and gentle as he cupped her chin. She gasped at his lips shocked at him but it didn't take long before she wrapped her arms around him. Gar slowly touched his tongue to her lips as he pulled her carefully into his lap. He was slow and gentle, if she told him to stop he would. Deep down in her subconscious she knew this was wrong but she didn't stop him. She ground her hips into him. Her tongue lingering inside his mouth. She rocked her body forward, her hands in his hair.
He moaned his body responding to her. He was quickly hard against her. If he only realized how guilty he'd feel in the morning he may have stopped. But thanks to inebriation he didn't, it felt too right to stop. She was complete sin wrapped pure heaven. His tongue was slightly rough on hers. She began removing his clothes with her powers her heart hammering into her chest. She moaned as her hands began rubbing against his skin, the curve of his chest.
Gar felt his heart matching hers. He slowly pulled off her shirt. His hands moving over her chest slowly starting to unhooked her bra. He was kissing down her neck. "You're so beautiful." he confessed. Her skin flushed as she moved her hand down his body tracing her fingers against his flawless abs. She moved once more grabbed his hands and moved them down her own body and to her hips. She grabbed her pants and pulled them from her body shaking from anticipation. "Here." She whispered in almost a way that sound like a plea. Placing his hand on the front of her underwear.
He moaned his hand sliding into her underwear his thumb brushing over her clit. He moved to let her fall onto the bed. He slid her underwear down slowly. Sweet Jesus, his brain telling him she was utterly perfect. Her skin, her muscles and then that perfect mound. His heart racing his breath already escaping him as he brought his lips over where his fingers had been. He purred in delight and the feeling. He must have been dreaming because she'd never let this happen in real life. His animal instincts were driving him nuts as began devouring her. His tongue swirled around the swollen pleasure button. Then he slid tongue between her lips. 'Fucking hell she tastes even better than I had imagined.'
She let go her powers throwing his book case to floor. She gasped as his mouth began giving her pleasure. She stared down at his full head of green mused hair between her legs. She arched higher bucking against him. "Oh Gar." She mumbled "That feels amazing."
His name on her lips drive him insane. He sucked softly on her clit his tongue diving between her lips searching into her core. He wanted to show her what he would do for her. He slowly slipped a finger in looking for the rough patch. His own hips rocking as he was painfully hard.
Somehow he knew her body and what it craved as soon as he touched that spot she bucked and moaned. "Right there." She bit her lip falling deeper into heaven or sin how ever you wanted to look at it. Gar took the encouragement well. His finger pushed into that spot, slowly at first. Then worked on just massaged it. The entire time his tongue swirling over her clit before sucking on her lips and clit. He loved the taste of her. He could feel himself leaking slightly at the idea of giving her such pleasure.
She wiggled her legs as she felt it her orgasm. She paused panting. "I'm coming." It was something she had done out of habit, her sexual life with Jason was much different. Gar was proud of himself none the less. He kept it up milking it for everything it was worth. Good God did he want her. His eyes watching her.
She shuttered her eyes looking him she expected him to stop but he didn't letting her ride it out. She let out a deep breath. Gar slowly pulled back licking his lips clean. It was clear he was still very much aroused.
She looked down at the tent between his legs and her heart began to hammer. She moved slowly her eye flicking up to him. "You've always wanted me Gar. So now that you had me is this all you want?" She gripped him slowly rubbing her hands through the fabric. She flicked her eyes up at him and whispered the words that she knew she never would in normal circumstances. "I want you inside me Gar." Her hand moved his boxers down his thigh so she could touch him freely now. She looked at him fully her face blushing. "You're really green everywhere." That comment was mostly for her.
That animal burning with need and desire snapped. She wanted him and he'd be damned if he didn't give into her ever need. With in the second he had her pinned to the bed his lips on hers as he slowly slid into her. A deep moan in his chest. Her words had stricken the last bit of logic from his brain.
Her chest shook as she let out a staggered breath. "OH.. Gar!" She moaned roughly between their lips. She arched up letting him sink into deeper.
His kisses were rough and needy. He bit her bottom lip as his hips thrust to hers. His hand moved to her hips, he lifted her leg slightly giving him a better angle. "Oh. You feel so damn good.." As he said this he sped up moving in and out of her warm walls. He couldn't process the fact that he was actually fucking the woman of his dreams.
Gar was completely different from Jason, he praised her, telling her how beautiful she was, how great she felt. Jason was most focused on just saying "little bird", or "Raven" in her ear over and over. Gar was more on a mission to see how many times he could bring her orgasm heaven, while Jason let her slowly burn, building her up until she was close to shattering then he pull away letting her suffer more.
She hummed as her body was once again brought into that space. She gripped his arm while her other hand moved towards her clit. As soon as she touched it she was launched into another orgasm. He kept his pace up and it wasn't long before she knew that she would have at least one more before the night was over.
It was his mission to make her come til she couldn't come anymore. His eyes watching her. His body giving into her. He couldn't help but thrust deep into her as he came. But his hand had now replaced hers as his teeth nipped her shoulder. His hips rising and falling with purpose. She gasped chanting yeses into the air while his thrust grew more powerful. His sweet cock had found her spot and thanks to constant pounding, she gripped his shoulders as she had her third and final orgasm.
Gar was a sweating panting mess as he kissed her. He slowly pulled out and collapsed next to her. He'd let her ride it out milking him until he was positive her body had taken every single drop. He carefully pushed the hair out of her face. Looking at her eyes. She sighed letting her heart finally calm down. She started at him his eyes bright and for the first time she wasn't so blind from the love that he held for her in them. Gar took a deep breath and pulled her against himself. He closed his eyes praying to have just this night to them.
Raven gave him a solitary kiss. "Goodnight." She whispered her eyes looking over at his trashed room thanks to her powers and sighed. He kissed her softly before drifting to sleep.
Next morning she climbed out of his bed her body feeling like she was going expel everything. She grabbed her clothes and placed a water bottle and pain meds on the pillow and slipped out of his room with out saying a word. Once in the bathroom she began puking everything she had in stomach which was a whole lot of nothing. After minutes passed by she shakily climbed into the shower. Hating everything she was. Gar awoke alone first convinced it was a dream. Then his heart broke. Her scent marked not only his pillow where she had slept but also all over his sheets when they took each other. He knew he'd crossed the line. The guilt eating at him already. He already felt like he'd lost one of his very best friends.
