Disclaimer: I do not own the Teen Titans or any of the song listed, or their artists but it would be really cool if I owned Garbage because they freakin' rock…

Uh, here's number six which puts me over the 25,000 words block and I'm pretty happy about that. This one's not as long as the previous but I kicked it out in like one day (or possible two if I don't have enough time today) so just be happy it's here.

Alright, well you're welcome to go ahead and read because that's probably why you're here anyway…

Bad Boyfriend

"So what are you doing to do?"

"Drink until I feel better."

"That's not very healthy, Karen."

"Neither is keeping everything locked up, Jen."

Jinx sighed at the memory and looked down into her icy green margarita. It had taken a few days but now she was completely fine with drinking tequila. She knew that her current obsession with being just drunk enough to "take the edge off" was becoming a hassle but Jinx refused to stay sober. Somewhere in the back of her head she knew she shouldn't be so distraught over a girl but she thought this was more of an overall situation thing then just some girl.

Looking up Jinx saw the usual lunch crowd of middle-age business men pulling away from work to spend time with girls with very little on. Jinx sighed at the pathetic state she was in, eating at a strip club, her strip club, but a strip club nonetheless.

She picked at the fries before her and considered going home. She had bought new sheets and burned the others in her fireplace; using it for once and watching the sheet erupt in flames when she tossed a half-empty glass of scotch on the fire. That had been her last bottle and while Karen had seemed to get over Cyborg and go on with her life Jinx wasn't doing so well.

She glanced at her cell phone which sat on the table and jerked as it went off, she could barley hear the ring over the blaring music and she wasn't going to answer it anyway. Things weren't just going the way she had planned.

"We made you tea, Friend Raven." Starefire said and she put the steaming mug in front of the gloomy girl. Raven had been even more jumpy then usual and the Titans were beginning to wonder just what exactly had ticked their friend off.

Raven glanced down at the tea and suddenly it launched itself towards a window, breaking the glass and flying out into the ocean. "I don't want that tea." Raven muttered and she stood up.

"Raven, what the hell?" Beast Boy exclaimed as he waved his hands towards the shattered window. "What's wrong with you?" He asked stepping closer to the retreating empath.

"Just leave me alone." Raven said and she tried to walk past the shape shifter only to have him move to be in front of her once again. "Beast Boy, move." Raven growled.

"Not until you tell me what's wrong." He taunted and Robin's eyes widened, the Boy Wonder thought at the safety of doing such an act and then shrugged, it was Beast Boy's life.

"Move." Raven repeated and Beast Boy changed into a tortoise allowing for Raven to step over him. She could feel his anger at being forced into an animal but Raven didn't much care now, she was pissed.

Over the past days she had decided to be angry at Jinx, she wasn't sure why but it was a lot easier to be angry at the girl then to be angry at herself and Rage was content for once. Raven flashed into her room with a bit of magic and grabbed the package that sat unopened on a table savagely. "Why haven't I opened this stupid box, anyway?"

Raven knew the answer, she had been to afraid that it was something important that Jinx would want back and therefore thought it would just be better to ignore it entirely. But now she was going to open the blasted thing, and so she flung a dagger into her hand with magic and ripped the box open.

There were packing peanuts that fell and Raven shoved them aside to find an object in a black suede-like case. She pulled it out of the material and found an iphone, it was the newest, state of the art technology and the empath wondered at the expensiveness of her gift. Thinking back to Jinx's apartment and how nearly everywhere she went with the girl someone called her "Boss," Raven figured the girl must have money to spare.

Raven pressed the button to turn the phone on and thought about her own phone, she never checked the thing and it usually sat in her top dresser drawer until she wanted to call someone. Raven put the iphone down and walked to her dresser opening the drawer and pulling out the old Nokia. The connect read disconnected and Raven wondered what exactly Jinx had done.

She heard the chime of the phone turning on from her table and she looked over at it and then snatched up her old phone and walked over to the box. There lying below the peanuts was a typed note.

R,

I thought you might like a new phone and I took the liberty of uploading your contacts and phone number into the iphone, it's amazing what people can hack these days. Oh, and the plans covered for the next six week because of how evil phone companies are these days. Don't worry, I picked up the tab for this one.

I got the best of the best here, state of the art, hot off the press, iphone. Figured your old nokia wasn't doing it for you anyway. I put my phone number in the list so if you want to call me your welcome to. I told you I'd send you something so you could tell me if you still want to hang out.

I'd like to see you again, very much.

-J

Raven looked at the font and looked back at the new phone. She picked it up experimentally and turned it watching the screen spin. She poked the screen for a few minutes and navigated herself to the contacts and there were her contacts. Scrolling down to the J's Raven looked and found no Jinx listed, but there was a Jennifer Melfi.

Raven looked at the name, committing it to memory and wondering whether it was Jinx's real name, and if so, why she had trusted Raven enough to give her it. Raven cradled the phone in her hands and thought about the decision for a moment before calling, maybe her offer still stands.

The phone was still ringing and irritated Jinx grabbed it and flicked it open against her ear, "Jen."

"Jinx?" Raven's quiet voice was barely audile, but Jinx could hear it perfectly and she could sense the doubt, still partially drunk she searched for a way to hurt Raven, make her feel what she felt.

"What do you want? Do you really think it was pleasant? Letting someone into my house and they didn't even bother to say goodbye before they leave?" She growled into the phone, it wasn't fair, Raven had been able to leave, Raven had been able to do whatever she wanted, when would Jinx be able to do what she wanted?

"I thought you didn't want me there." Raven admitted quietly.

"There you go making assumptions, maybe I wanted you to stay, did you very fucking think of that?" Jinx closed the phone and threw it into the opposite booth. "It's not fucking fair." Jinx murmured.

"Girl troubles?" A woman asked, Jinx looked over to find a nearly-twenty year old in a white button down Catholic school girl shirt that was ripped and tied to reveal a tan stomach. Jinx's eyes followed the skin down to a pleated skirt and similarly tanned legs.

"Jamie," Jinx acknowledge and she tilted her head, "How could you guess?"

Jamie smiled and Jinx watched the blonde seat herself leaving next to no space between herself and Jinx. "Let's see, angry phone calls, a drink that's obviously not your first, and you're here." The girl waved her right hand absently to point out the place.

"Now I'm of consenting age, to be forgetting you in a cabaret…" Jinx began.

"Are you quoting Panic! At the Disco? My, my, you must really be fallen for this girl…" Jamie purred and she tilted her head so it brushed against Jinx's shoulder.

"It's better than the stuff they play here." Jinx said of-handedly as she attempted to make conversation to keep Jamie at bay, Jinx wasn't sure if she could say no in her current state.

"What? This is garbage."

"That's exactly what I mean." Jinx replied and she took another sip, oh, what the hell.

"No, no, you're not understanding me. This is Garbage." Jamie explained and paused so Jinx could hear the words.

There's something burning and rolling in me
We may not last but we'll have fun till it ends
C'mon baby be my bad boyfriend
C'mon baby be my bad boyfriend
C'mon baby be my bad boyfriend

The techno music rang throughout the entire club and Jinx raised an eyebrow at Jamie, "You listen to this?"

"Sweetheart, I dance to this," Jamie corrected with a smile and she kicked her legs over Jinx letting the miniskirt lie just barely on Jinx's lap. "I dance pretty well if I do say so myself." She turned her head back towards Jinx, "Let me make you forget about that girl."

"Jamie, I—" Jinx stopped suddenly when the girl slipped into her lap in a flash. Jinx looked up at the slightly taller girl now straddling her lap and the feline tried not to think about the insubstantial underwear now being the only barrier between her jeans and…

"Your eyes are different," Jamie whispered and Jinx was still somehow amazed at how loud the music could be, but yet how easily she could hear such quiet words.

"I know, I got new contacts." Jinx lied and she felt frozen, incapable of knowing what to do next.

"I think they're sexy, they look like tiger eyes." Jamie whispered before planting her mouth of Jinx's. The feline could taste cigarettes on the other girl but she didn't much care, she was more concerned with how Jamie kept biting her bottom lip and Jinx pushed against her lightly to move her mouth up and reclaim her assault. Jinx rolled her tongue over Jamie's and explored the girl's teeth, feeling her moan when her tongue moved to the roof of her mouth.

She remembered using the same trick on Raven and how both had reacted the same, with a jerk she pulled away form the now rather insistent Jamie. "I—I—I can't do this, I'm sorry." Jinx slid the other girl form her lap and walked into kitchen of the club. This is not working, she thought and banged her head against the counter.

Jinx sat in her apartment and checked her email, she had gone home and take a cold shower followed by a futile attempt at sleep around two o'clock in the afternoon. Now she was actually semi-working for the first time in two days.

She had to collect loans given out to the meta-humans of the city. While normal people were easy to collect on meta-humans and the like always gave her guys trouble when they came to take back what was theirs. The most pressing one was Mumbo who had actually stolen from her. Jinx didn't much like that and she scrolled through the various emails and clicked the few surveillance links showing the magician running around downtown. There was also a number and Jinx began to formulate a plan to help out Mumbo and herself.

She wanted to apologize to Raven, after she had managed to completely sober up she realized just how stupid she had been and how pissed off Raven could be at her. Why did I ask Giz to send her that phone?

A mew came from the kitchen and Jinx sighed and walked to her sink to find her black cat sitting on the counter. "Diz, I'm not giving you a sink drink in the kitchen sink, you'll slip and fall into the garbage disposal." The feline meowed at Jinx's words and she smiled and picked up the cat, placing him on her bathroom counter. She plugged the sink and filled it with water patting the bad-luck omen. "I'll be gone for a bit, you think you can manage?"

She shook her head, I'm talking to a cat! Looking up into the mirror she nearly jumped back. Her normally pink hair was beginning to turn blonde with at least the first two inches closest to her scalp already an orange-ish blonde. She reached up and touched a bang just above her right eyebrow, it was brown. "No." She whispered looking at the odd mixture of pink and blonde.

She checked her eyes and saw the cat-like slits but instead of pink they were orange with a bit of brown mixed in. She swallowed hard and then dashed into her room, grabbing a beanie and stuffing her hair into the knit-cap. Her hair and eyes were the only part that was affected by her emotions and they rarely changed color these days, and here she was with rapidly bleaching hair and orange eyes.

She groaned and knew she had to do something, she liked her pink hair and someone would ask about it. It was useless to dye it though, in only a couple weeks it would just turn back to blonde and for some reason contacts generally dissolved in her eyes. Whatever the reason was, it was terribly hard to change her appearance when her appearance decided it wanted to look like something.

She walked out of her room and grabbed the jacket she had thrown over her couch. Now she was definitely calling Mumbo, she needed to see Raven and hopefully seeing the girl might make her hair go back to normal.

Jinx sat on a rooftop and watched as Mumbo tripped nearly every security alarm the building had. She sighed into the air and watched her breath appear in a wisp. It was really freaking cold outside.

No one, not even Mumbo knew she was staked out watching. She had told the magician to hit a particular building in exchange for making a couple grand of his debt disappear. He had originally declined and Jinx asked if he was prepared to pay off his debt currently and so Mumbo was forced to agree. Jinx knew he was no bank robber which was perfect for Jinx, he had practically built a neon sign pointing to himself when he attempted to stick-up the place.

Jinx looked up from her hiding place and watched the Titans approaching, there were only three in the air though and Jinx scanned the roads to see Cyborg's car and Robin on his bike speeding towards the bank.

Mumbo appeared in front of the bank just as all of the Titans were within sight of the man and he split into five different Mumbos that ran in different directions forcing the Titans to split up.

"Good job, Mumbo." Jinx whispered into the wind and she jump from her spot to another rooftop, running after the Mumbo Raven was flying after. Jinx broke out into a dead run and jumped from five to four, to six story rooftops and then plunged down into an alley when she saw Raven turn down it.

Unfortunately Jinx's luck had seemed to run out as when she jumped down she landed on top of Raven, something she had not wanted to do. "What the hell?" Raven growled when she was knocked to the ground.

"Raven, I'm sorry." Jinx squeaked as she looked down at the girl she was currently straddling.

"What? Who the—Jinx?" Raven asked as she recognized the girl above her.

"Sorry, I just wanted to see you again. The Mumbo you were chasing wasn't the real one anyway…" Jinx tried to explain and she struggled to find words.

"Did you do this?" Raven asked and she tried to move from under Jinx, but the feline wouldn't budge.

"Uh, kind of, yeah." Jinx said looking at the ground next to the tackled empath.

"Could you get off of me?" Raven growled now remembering she was pissed at Jinx.

"No." The feline immediately said and Raven raised an eyebrow at the short answer, "I came here to apologize to you. I didn't mean what I said. Well…I kind of did, but I didn't mean it like I said it…I just…" she looked down at the increasing confused Raven, "I was just drunk."

"You were drunk?" Raven asked smiling slightly.

"Yeah." Jinx said and she moved off and stood up holding a hand out to help Raven up.

Raven took her hand grateful that Jinx wasn't quite so close, it was hard to concentrate and Raven feared that her powers would do something stupid. "So I guess we both have to apologize for being drunk." Raven said shyly.

"You were just really blasted, I'd just been continuously drunk for the last two days," Jinx paled when she realized she had said that out loud.

"Why?" Raven asked and she noticed Jinx's orange eyes. They looked like they did during the Rites…

"Uh…Why did you leave?" Jinx asked changing the subject.

"I—It doesn't matter." Raven said softly and Jinx leaned forwards as she brushed a bit of hair out of Raven's eyes.

"I want to know." Jinx said and she pulled her hand away reluctantly.

Why not? Raven thought and she began talking very fast, "I woke up and all I could do was think about how stupid I had been and how mad you must be at me for acting so stupid and I figured you wanted me out of your apartment anyways since I tried to ki—" Raven was cut off by Jinx's mouth that pressed up against her and she tried to kiss back only to feel Jinx pull away.

The feline looked down and blushed, "I'm sorry if I did something stupid. You were just going on and on and it was so cute. I was wondering when you were going to breath." Jinx looked up to see Raven smiling at the joke.

Raven's hand reached out and cupped Jinx's face, "Do you want to kiss me?"

"Very much so," Jinx answered and she felt Raven's mouth on her own. It was soft and Jinx felt Raven's hands move down to around her neck as the empath tried to pull Jinx as close as she could.

Jinx ran her hands down Raven's sides feeling the soft material of the leotard and she bit down slightly on Raven's bottom lip. Raven moaned softly and Jinx smiled into her mouth and turned her head slightly to kiss Raven better. Jinx kept moving her lips against Raven but eventually air became a necessity and she pulled away feeling her pulse running about the same as a rabbit that was being scared to death.

Breathing heavy Jinx felt Raven running her hand through her hair, "it's blonde…"

"Completely?" Jinx asked and she took in her surroundings to find that she had pushed Raven against a wall and Raven was currently running her right hand through Jinx's newly colored hair.

"Yeah, did you dye it again?" Raven asked almost entranced.

"No, I think it's your fault," Jinx said smiling slyly and looking at Raven's violet eyes.

"My fault?" Raven asked and Jinx shivered as a sudden wind blew through the alley.

"Come on, we'll freeze out here." Jinx said and she moved her arms away from Raven's side to let the other girl pull away. "My hair changes colors when I'm acting a certain way."

"What are you acting like now?" Raven asked and Jinx looked away from her eyes unable to answer. "Aww, does it have to do with me?" Raven teased and Jinx glared.

"It's your fault." She repeated glaring and she pulled Raven lightly so the girl took a step forward. "You and your stupid haywire powers."

"My powers?" Raven asked walking next to Jinx.

"Yeah," Jinx said looking to her left at the empath, "Have you noticed how you've become rather emotion around me and yet nothing has randomly combusted? Or how when you wanted to kill my cashier I could hold back your powers," Jinx shrugged, "granted for only a few seconds, but still."

"Yeah, I tried to say something but I don't think you understood." Raven admitted and Jinx's brow wrinkled.

"Was that what you meant when you were talking about things never happening around me?" Jinx asked and she snaked her arms around Raven who's head jerked to look at Jinx only to feel the feline pull away as suddenly as she had neared. "Beanie," Jinx explained while she put the black hat on.

"I don't really think they're going to recognize you." Raven said smirking and turning the corner to find Robin looking around in search of Mumbo.

"Raven!" He called and ran up to the empath. "Have you found Mumbo?"

Jinx looked down trying not to get noticed and actually rather surprised that Robin didn't recognize her, you think after fighting someone for what? two years, and they don't even recognize you…

Raven on the other hand was trying to divert the Boy Wonder's attention to herself, "No, I chased after a fake copy, has anyone else seen him?"

Robin shook his head and held up the yellow communicator, "Haven't heard from Beast Boy or Cy though, they might have him."

"Where's Star?" Raven asked as she looked skyward in search of the flying alien.

"Looking for those two, still no sign." Robin muttered and he look at Jinx quickly, "Who's your friend?"

Jinx looked at Raven and the empath smiled weakly, "This is Jen, I ran into her trying to find Mumbo."

"I should go," Jinx said never taking her eyes off of Raven, "I'll uh, call you some time, you seem kind of busy right now." Jinx let her eyes slant to Robin and nodded politely at him before turning and walking off around the corner.

Robin watched her go and Raven raised an eyebrow at this, "Don't you already have a girlfriend?" She asked icily.

"Huh? Oh, she just looked familiar, that's all…" Robin explained tearing his eyes away and looking back at the sky for Starfire. "Uh, we should look for BB and Cy."

"You think?" Raven asked sarcastically and she pulled out her communicator, "BB, Cy, Star, anyone, come in."

"Hey Rae, how's it goin'?" Beast Boy's cocky voice answered and Raven raised an eyebrow at the Boy Wonder.

"Have you found Mumbo?" Raven asked and Robin grabbed his own communicator ready for whenever Raven decided to get off line.

"Yup, got 'em in custody right now. Me 'n Cy are the best!" He said obviously proud and Raven could hear Cyborg cheering in the background.

"And you're sure it's the real Mumbo?" Raven asked doubting the two's ability, and combined mental capacity for that manner, to capture the tricky magician.

"Yeah, he bleeds and everything."

"He's bleeding?" Robin yelled into the communicator.

"Well…Cy kind of hit him with his sonic blaster…and uh…I kind of had to bite him to keep him still until the cops came…'n—" Beast Boy tried to explain slyly.

"He's still alive and conscious, right?" Raven asked slightly annoyed by the two's overly violent victory.

"Oh yeah, he's cursing us to oblivion right now, Rae. We got 'em al right…" Beast Boy answered and Raven sighed and switched off her communicator leaving Robin to deal with the mess.

"Let's go clean this up," Robin said as he got onto his bike. Raven nodded while pulling her hood over her head and then followed him to a four lanes street blocked off by police cars and press. The surge of black-suited people turned at the appearance of the two and Raven glared at them, just daring to have then even try to take a picture, she was still slightly pissed at how Robin had checked out Jinx. My Jinx, she thought and then paused at that, 'my' Jinx…weird…

"Ladies and gentleman we thank you for coming here and would love to sign autographs but we seemed to be pressed for time," Cyborg glanced at is wrist and smiled, "it's time for my mid-afternoon snack."

Raven rolled her eyes at the mechanical man's over dramatic announcement and smiled weakly when Beast Boy began to argue with him about what they should make. "Let's just go home, guys," she advised smiling even more and while they couldn't see it her team mates knew something was making the usually sour girl happy.

"You're in a good mood Raven," Cy observed and he put his arm on her shoulder, "Good to have you out of that other mood, we were afraid you were going to kill BB."

Raven giggled slightly and Beast Boy glared at her, "Figured you were PMS-ing or something."

At this Raven glared, "You know, I was in a good mood." She said and then shot out a bit of magic at the shape-shifter causing him to jump back and transform into a black-cat. "There, much better." Raven muttered looking down at the cat who mewed loudly angry at the forced change.

Raven sat in her room absently playing with her new phone. Upon further exploration she found pictures of Jinx looking rather ridiculous and a single picture of a black cat with a caption, Dizzle fo Shizzle on her phone.

She couldn't help but laugh at this and wonder if Jinx had actually named her cat this. She tried to remember a cat when she had been at Jinx's apartment but couldn't and decided that she hadn't been in the apartment long enough to even consider looking for a cat.

She fixed a rather goofy looking picture of Jinx with her hair in her face and set that to her wallpaper. She look at the time displayed, hmm, six-twenty, she's probably not doing much… And Raven opened her contacts and scrolled down to the J's.

She hesitated for a moment longer and then clicked call, it rang once, then twice and Raven was just about to chicken out when she heard the click of a pick up, "Raven?"

"Hey, you said you'd call me and…"

"Oh yeah, sorry," Jinx apologized and Raven could hear pots clanging in the background. "I had a bunch of paper work and I had to help this guy out of a tight spot, and Tony's just been—"

"Mumbo's out of jail, isn't he?" Raven asked raising an eyebrow at Jinx's explanation.

"Well how is he gana pay me back if he's in jail, it just isn't good business." Jinx answered and Raven heard the feline moving around, "Shut-up Diz."

"Who are you talking to?" Raven asked.

"My cat," Jinx sighed, "He keeps begging for food and I'm making tuna salad so I guess go figure. There's no way in hell I'm giving him tuna though…"

"Aww, poor cat," Raven said grinning into the phone.

"Shut-up, you don't have to take care of him, he's a pain in the ass." And Raven could tell Jinx said the last bit slightly louder to make sure her cat heard. "Hey, I want to see you again," Jinx said into the phone and Raven nodded and then realizing Jinx couldn't see answered.

"Yeah, I wanta see you too."

"Good, what'cha doin' Friday night?" Jinx asked trying to get her voice to sound as seductive as possible.

"Not much, what do you have in mind?" Raven answered back smiling like a pre-teen getting asked out by the cutest guy in school.

"How about a movie at seven?" Jinx asked and then swore which was followed by a loud bang.

"You okay?" Raven asked in alarm.

"Yeah, I swear, I'm going to kill that cat some day…" Jinx muttered, "Hey, I'm sorry, so how does a movie sound?"

Raven giggled at Jinx and she watched a book suddenly jerk off her bookshelf and land on her bed. "Sounds good, what were you thinking of for a movie?"

"You'll just have to wait and see." Jinx said and Raven wished she was with Jinx, at least her powers wouldn't be acting so weird.

"Alright, where am I meeting you?"

"Well it's this little theatre…"

Author's Side-note:

The song is by one of my favorite bands, Garbage as the dialogue says and the song's "Bad Boyfriend", there were also lyrics form Panic! At the Disco's "But It's Better If You Do" which Jinx quoted from (also said in the dialogue) and that's all the lyrics that I knowingly included anyway.

That's for reading and like I said I'd kick out this one within the week. I'd also like to say that my school's mascot is a Tiger and we totally kick all the other's school's butts because they suck since their mascot isn't a tiger…

Anyway, sorry for the tangent there, uh, well wait for more I guess…
