"Beast Boy!" Terra shrieked as he walked through the door, guarding his veggie lover's, totally meat-free, and animal friendly pizza with his life.
"Terra! Careful! Hot pizza!!" was all he managed to get out before a suddenly affectionate blonde catapulted herself into his arms. This sudden public display left Robin and Cyborg with their jaws on the floor and the two other girls staring at them, not paying a bit of attention to the couple.
"Beast Boy, I missed you SO Much!" Terra squealed, griping the green teen's neck even tighter. "Even if you were just going to get pizza, I don't like being away from you!" The blonde was seeping sarcasm that only the one and only queen of the art herself managed to pick up on.
Raven leaned over to Robin and placed his jaw back in its rightful place. "You know, I think Terra's up to something" the dark girl whispered to him. "and I'm not liking the looks of it, or the feel."
'Uh, I don't see anything wrong, I mean, they ARE kinda dating…"
"Robin, I know you're hiding something, I can feel the guilt wafting off of you."
"Oh, well then, I um, I" 'Oh shit! What am I going to tell her?' "I, I mean, I went into your room! That's it! I went into you room!" By this time everyone had averted their gaze from Terra to Robin.
"That's it? Did you touch anything?" Raven looked at him skeptically.
"Um, no. I just looked in to see if you were there, but then I remembered you went to get the pizza, I'm sorry." Robin did his best to look guilty.
"You do realize that doesn't exactly constitute as going in to my room, right?" Rae raised an eyebrow at the fumbling teen.
A simple "yes" was his answer. That boy could save the city, but not his own ass. The team sat down to eat their pizza, the recent ordeal seemingly forgotten. Raven ate in silence; Cyborg and Beast Boy were having their meat versus veggie pizza argument, while Starfire tried to keep some peace. Robin watched, occasionally shaking his head. Terra was right by Beast Boy's side, clinging to him like the bad spray tan to a Ross. (I apologize for the random Friends reference)
After dinner everyone went their separate ways for bed. That was, all except for Raven. Today had been very hectic and she was going to the mall with Star tomorrow. She desperately needed to meditate, and there was no better place but the roof. She was just settling into her mind when she heard the door slam. 'Oh great, company.' Beast Boy walked over as silently as possible, trying hard as he could not to disturb Raven.
"So what brings you here Beast Boy?" Raven opened one eye, glancing at him.
"I couldn't sleep, and you weren't in you room. About the other day-"
"No Beast Boy. You can't. Terra is already possessive. If she would find out anything about us she would be worse and probably get violent."
"Rae, she wouldn't, I promise."
"Promises keep us in chains Beast Boy. Don't make one that you can't keep on your own."
"Wow Rae, I thought you really wanted this."
"I do Beast Boy. You have no idea; I just don't want you to do something you might regret."
"I don't do regrets, I thought you knew that."
"Well one day you might." At this Raven got up and walked to the door. "And remember, it's not because I don't want it, it's because we can't, at least not right now anyway." Raven walked inside, leaving Beast Boy on the roof, where he remained the rest of the night, thinking about what he was going to do next.
AN: Sorry this took so long, things have been nuts lately. My dad kidnapped the computer to work on it, so that took a while. I'm so sorry! I promise to try to update more often!
"Promises keep us in chains" is from a song by Drake Bell, He's a great artist.
