Woo, Chapter Three! I'm getting hyped up now as I'm already planning the ending which is going to be the next chapter. The comments are keeping me typing really quickly so thank you and I hope you like this next instalment!

Ok, Plan A didn't work, Beast Boy thought as he trudged back to the Tower and immediately headed for his room to search for his communicator. He knew he was meant to have it on him at all times but he couldn't help forgetting it from time to time, especially when it kept vanishing into the depths of his messy room. He started chucking things around wandering where it could have got to and also how long some of the clothes he saw on the floor had been lying there.

He needed the communicator right now to reach his next port of call: Kid Flash. Not only was the cheerful speedster dating one of the moodiest and most sarcastic people Beast Boy had ever met (she had hexed him across a room once when he told her one of his best jokes) but he had also persuaded her to switch sides. Beast Boy thought he deserved a medal just for putting up with her but he would never have dared say it in front of his face. Kid Flash was even more protective of Jinx than Robin was of Starfire and you only badmouthed Jinx in front of him at your peril.

Beast Boy delved further into the piles of stuff that lay around his room like termite mounds until he finally found the communicator buried in a lump of slightly whiffy socks. He held it up triumphantly like it was a trophy and then dialled Kid Flash's number. Both he and Jinx were currently in China clearing up any remaining trouble the Brotherhood had left there. I hope they're both up, Beast Boy thought as it began bleeping. What time is it in China anyway…?

He soon got his answer as he heard a thud followed by the click of a lamp turning on and a bleary-eyed Kid Flash came into view. He was groaning drowsily and rubbing his eyes as he stared into his communicator. His red hair was a spiky mess and his bare muscular torso was only half-covered by a blanket. In the corner of the screen Beast Boy could just make out a grey shoulder and a few locks of spread-out pink hair. He gulped. He was gonna be in trouble now.

"Beast Boy?" Kid Flash moaned sleepily. "What is it?"

"Oh dude sorry," Beast Boy said quickly. "I didn't know what the time was over there…"

"It's very early, let's leave it at that." Kid Flash raked his fingers through his hair, making it even messier. "What do you want?"

"I…I just need some advice…" Beast Boy answered cringing. "I'm having some girl trouble…"

"Girl trouble?" Kid Flash said and the grey shoulder stirred.

"Wally, what's going on?" Jinx's sluggish voice came from behind Kid Flash as he swung his legs over the side of the bed.

"Nothing Jinxie, Beast Boy's having girl trouble, that's all!" He announced, ignoring Beast Boy's frantic gesturing not to and leaning over to give her a kiss.

Jinx snorted. "Girl trouble? Does he need reminding of what one is?"

"Hey!" Beast Boy protested but Kid Flash laughed over him.

"C'mon, play nice." He told her. "I'll just be a minute." He got up and pulled the blanket off of him and Beast Boy was relieved to see he was wearing red shorts. "You just go back to sleep."

Jinx didn't need telling twice as she pulled the blanket over her head. Kid Flash smiled indulgently at her sleeping form before he sped out of the room.

"K Beastie, what's up?" He said now much more perky and interested.

"Well, it's to do with Raven-"

"You and Raven?" Kid Flash said with a little surprise. "Well, there's a turn-up for the books. Robin mentioned you had a thing for her but I didn't think you would act so quickly…"

"That's the problem. There is no me and Raven at this point." Beast Boy confessed. "That's what I need help with. And Robin told you what?!"

"Never mind." Kid Flash said hastily. "What exactly do you need help with?"

"I need to get her to notice me, cos at the moment she kinda hates me." Beast Boy thought back to earlier and quailed at the memory. "How would I do that?"

"Well…I'm no expert…"

"You managed it with Jinx."

"She didn't hate me."

"Didn't she hit you over the head with a wet floor sign and knock you out?"

"That was different." He pondered for a second and then his face cracked into a grin. "I know! How about you leave her things?"

"What?"

"You know, little presents or love tokens or whatever you want to call them. When I first met Jinx, I kept leaving her red roses to find. At first, I think she found it annoying but then she softened up to it. I found out not long ago she kept them all, she pressed them into a thick book so her team wouldn't find them and so they would last…" He looked back into the bedroom almost dreamily before snapping his attention back to Beast Boy. "Anyway, I think that would work. But don't use red roses, those are my thing."

"Sure, that's a brilliant idea!" Beast Boy beamed widely. "And I know the perfect thing to get her! Thanks a bunch!"

"No problem!" Kid Flash said before he gave a yawn. "Alright, I'm going back to bed now. See ya later!"

"OK, night, see ya later!" Beast Boy said as Kid Flash switched his communicator off.

"So, Beast Boy and Raven, huh?"

Kid Flash turned around to see Jinx leaning in the doorway in her nightie with her hair falling all rumpled down past her shoulders and a smug smile on her face. "I didn't think the grass stain had it in him."

"I know right?" They both walked back to bed and the second they were both under the covers, Kid Flash cuddled close to her and began planting little kisses onto her neck.

"Do you think it'll work?" she asked him as his hair tickled her and she shoved him away. "Stop it, I'm trying to talk to you!"

"I don't know." Kid Flash shrugged. Before she could react, he had rolled on top of her and was pinning her to the bed. "And anyway, I don't want to stop."

"I'll be tired tomorrow," She warned him playfully as he dotted kisses all over her face. "And you really don't want to see me cranky."

He looked down at her with a mischievous glint in his eyes. He kissed her long and hard on her lips before he drew back and whispered "I think I can handle it."

Beast Boy waited until the next day to put his plan into action. The afternoon before, he had managed to persuade Cyborg to drive him to the nearest bookstore and had fended off all of his probing questions without letting one detail of his plan slip. He had spent all night working on his present for Raven and he was praying she would like it.

It was funny, he thought as he placed it in front of her bedroom door, he could have sworn he had heard of it somewhere before but he couldn't think of where. Must have been a movie or something like that.

He darted back down the corridor and crouched hidden around the corner, his pointed green ear just peeping round. That was where Cyborg found him ten minutes later on the way back to his own room.

"BB?" He said quizzically, his eyebrow raised and his arms crossed as he stared at the green teenager who was squatting like a garden gnome. "What are you up to?"

"Shhhhh, I'm trying to listen out for Raven!" Beast Boy hissed as he kept his eyes on the wall in front of him.

"Raven?" Cyborg's eyes narrowed. "God, what are you trying to do now?"

"It's what Kid Flash suggested!" Beast Boy said. "He said to get her a gift or something and leave it for her to find! So I did and I'm waiting to hear her reaction!"

"Oh, a gift?" Cyborg breathed out in relief. "Is that why you wanted to go to the bookstore?" Beast Boy nodded without turning around. "Aww, you got her a book, that's nice."

"Wait 'til you see what I did to it!" Beast Boy said, pleased with himself.

"What did you do to it?" Cyborg asked puzzled.

"I found some online origami tutorial thing and I folded some of the pages up. Kid Flash mentioned something about flowers so I made her a paper bouquet!"

"That sounds pre-Wait you did what?!" Cyborg leapt back from him as if he had been stung and he had horror on his face.

"I…made her a paper bouquet out of a book?" Beast Boy said slowly, Cyborg's reactions suddenly making him uneasy and a little scared.

"Oh, this is bad!" Cyborg sounded panicky and he was pressed both hands to the side of his head like it was going to explode. "Dude, you do realise what that means right?"

"What?! What does it mean?!" Beast Boy turned around to face him, his eyes wide and distressed.

"Remember that wizard freak Malachior who tried to turn Raven all dark to free him?" Beast Boy nodded. "Well, he came out of a book and he manipulated her feelings by being nice to her and giving her paper flowers! She's gonna think he's back and freak out!"

Beast Boy sprang up "Shit! I knew that idea sounded familiar!" He cursed. "Oh God, what am I gonna do? Maybe I can go and grab it before she-"

They both froze as they heard the sound of a door sliding open. There was a moment of awful still silence. Then a loud scream thundered down the corridor, making Beast Boy almost jump out of his skin.

"Shit!" Cyborg yelled as he charged around the corner.

"What are you doing bro?!" Beast Boy called after him.

"I'm buying you some time!" Cyborg stopped and bellowed back. "You need to run BB!"
"Where to?!" Beast Boy shouted, his panic mounting as he started to edge away from the wall.

The shrieking got louder. Cyborg started running again as a loud crashing sound came from down the corridor to join it. "I don't know but just do it! Run man, just run!"

Beast Boy morphed into a cheetah and sprinted out of the Tower. He hurled himself down the stairs, nearly knocking over Starfire as she carried Silkie up the stairs, and outside into the open air. Even as he dashed from the island, he heard an angry voice furiously screech his name.

"BEAST BOYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!"

He groaned. This was really not going very well.

Damnit, I wasn't going to put a cute Flinx moment in there but I couldn't help it! And I'm being really hard on Beast Boy! Don't worry, it won't go on for much longer…Please leave a review!
