Hey everyone! Thanks for all the reviews! First and foremost, I want to give a super huge thanks to Unknown for pointing out a flaw in the last chapter. I got so caught up in the plot that I forgot that Sparrow was a vegetarian! I went back and changed it so that she was eating a veggie hotdog just like you suggested. Thanks for pointing that out! (=

Second, I agree that the whole conversation with future and past Terra didn't go very well but I wanted to have a reason why future Terra couldn't show where the time machine was so… But yeah, it was still lame.

By the way, this chapter really isn't important, it's mostly just a BB/Rae moment I decided to put in. WARNING: It's probably going to be really sappy, up to the last eight paragraphs. (=

As Sparrow chewed on her veggie hotdog and the others relaxed in the living room, Moonfire paced the floor of the Ops. Room. Something wasn't right, she just knew it, but for some reason, her exhausted mind just couldn't grasp what it was that was bothering her.

After a while, she gave up and decided to catch some sleep. Soon, everyone else followed suit, until all the titans were in their rooms. But while the day had been exhausting for every one of them, two certain titans were finding it rather hard to get some rest…

With Beastboy:

Beastboy sighed as he stared at the ceiling. He shut his eyes then opened them again and groaned. He was tired, but he had way to much on his mind to sleep. On one hand, there was Terra. Beastboy rolled his eyes. Just the thought of that backstabber made him ill.

First she refuses to accept that our old relationship's over. he thought. Then she goes and kisses me. Ugh, I still can't believe she actually did that! And what's worse is the fact that she put Sparrow and Crow in danger.

He shook his head. That was perhaps the worst part, the danger her presence posed on his kids. In a way, he was glad she wasn't in the tower. The less trouble she caused the better. He also thought about her new relationship with Slade.

Truthfully, he was kinda sickened by that, mostly due to the fact that Slade had to be at least thirty or so years older then her. And the fact that they had a kid… He shuddered in disgust. Would you stop! his mind yelled at him. You want to dream, not have nightmares!

Beastboy quickly drew his mind over to other matters… such as Raven. He couldn't help but smile. Just thinking about the empath made him feel better. For some reason, things never seemed as bad when Raven was there. He always felt like anything, anything at all, was possible, as long as he had her by his side.

Now Terra, what he'd felt with Terra wasn't anything close to what he felt with Raven. Terra was just a crush, with Raven, it was so much more. Sure she insulted him at times and had had a tendency to lock herself up, but he knew who she really was, the person behind the unfeeling mask.

Beastboy rolled his eyes. Hmm, now I sound like some guy in one of those romance movies Star loves so much… totally and completely sappy. Still…

He glanced at the clock near his side, sure he'd killed at least twenty minutes thinking and couldn't help but let out a groan when he saw that the clock had barely moved two minutes. "Dude, this thing is so busted!" he muttered, getting up and deciding to go get some fresh air to clear his mind.

With Raven:

Like Beastboy, Raven wasn't getting much rest either. She had tried to meditate to help herself relax but she couldn't clear her mind and had given up trying. Instead she lay on top of her bed to think things through, sure that when she resolved everything she was thinking about, she'd finally be able to rest.

Much to her distaste, Terra leapt into her mind. Raven disliked her to put it mildly. VERY mildly. In fact, she downright despised Terra and had a million reasons for doing so.

She broke Beastboy's heart, betrayed us twice, three times if you count the betrayal she's going to commit, put my kids existence in jeopardy, works for Slade, fell in love and had a kid with our worst enemy, and as though I needed another reason to hate her, her daughter has now joined the family business after betraying all the new titans' trust.

The last thought made her stop for a moment. Terra had only been with them a short while, yet her betrayal had still hurt. But the kids… Tammy was with them for two full years. She'd been their friend, and had gained their trust beyond a doubtable level. Or so they'd thought.

And then she betrayed them. Raven shook her head. Poor kids. she thought. She couldn't start to imagine how much that must of hurt, how shocked they all must have been. In fact, Raven wouldn't be surprised if the kids had mistrusted each other for days after the incident. She wondered what it might have been like if it was one of her team and the thought made her stomach clench.

Then there was Slade. Raven couldn't help but shudder at the very thought of him, and she didn't even want to think about how he and Terra got together, especially considering the huge age gap between them. Granted, she didn't know how old Slade was, but she knew he had to be about old enough to be Terra's father.

Raven let out a frustrated groan. All this thinking wasn't helping settle her mind at all. If anything, she seemed to be more awake then she was a few moments before. She sighed and got out of bed. Maybe some fresh air will help. she thought.

She had barely taken a step outside her room when she ran into someone and fell to the floor. She looked up and came face to face with Beastboy. "Hey, what are you doing out here?" both asked simultaneously.

Both stood up and then Raven repeated. "So, what are you doing out this late?" Beastboy shrugged. "Couldn't sleep. You?" Raven shrugged. "Same here." They were silent a moment before Beastboy spoke up.

"Heck of a day, huh?" he said. Raven raised an eyebrow. "I guess." she replied uncertainly. "Come on. Let's talk outside." They walked outside. The air was cold and crisp from the rain and the stars seemed particularly bright.

"Any particular reason you couldn't sleep?" he asked, trying to make conversation. Raven, wondering what he was up too, merely shrugged. "Nothing. Just too much on my mind." she said. "Like…?" he prodded. Raven raised an eyebrow. "Why do you want to know so badly?" she questioned.

He shrugged. "Just thought I might be able to help." he replied. Raven turned toward him to say something but stopped when she caught the genuine concern on his face. "It… it's nothing really." she insisted.

"Really?" he questioned. "Yes." she replied. "Really?" he pressed on with childlike insistence. She sighed in a mixture of annoyance and amusement. "Yes, Beastboy. Really." He continued to watch her and at last she gave in.

"If you must know, I was thinking about what the titans told us, about Slade and Terra being together." she told him. Beastboy frowned, suddenly serious. "Yeah, I was just thinking about that too." he admitted. "I don't blame Robin for fainting. It was kinda unexpected."

Raven raised an eyebrow. "Wow. You know what unexpected means?" she said, her usual sarcasm dripping from every word. Beastboy smiled and rolled his eyes. "I'm trying to be nice here. Don't ruin it." he replied. A small smile crossed her face, before she frowned.

"To tell you the truth, I'm glad they're together." she admitted. "They deserve each other." Beastboy nodded in response. They stood their silently for a few moments before Raven suddenly shivered.

Noticing, Beastboy put an arm around her. Startled, Raven started to pull away before she realized it was just him. Seeing her recoil, Beastboy started to pull his arm away but Raven suddenly grabbed it back.

"Wait don't." she started. At his questioning expression she added, "I'm sorry, I just… I didn't expect you to do that." Beastboy watched her for a few moments before speaking up. "Raven, is something wrong?" he asked. Raven looked up, confusion in her eyes.

"What are you talking about? I'm fine." she insisted. "No, your not." he replied, suddenly serious. "Ever since Terra came back you've been acting kinda… different." he told her. When she didn't reply he added, "You don't think I'm really considering getting back with her, do you?" he asked.

"What? Of course not!" she yelled indignantly. "I just don't like the way that little…" Raven stopped, and after controlling her temper she spoke up again. "I don't like how she's tried to get between us the past few days. Can't that little traitor ever get a hint." she scoffed, more to herself then to him.

He shook his head silently. "Raven…" he said. Raven looked up, her violet eyes meeting his emerald ones. Hesitantly, he reached a hand out and placed it on her cheek.

"Listen to me. Terra isn't a threat to you. She never was, and she'll never be. I'm not gonna deny that I liked her, cause I did, a long time ago. But I'm over her now, and I have no intention of ever liking her again." He stopped to make sure she was listening and when he saw that she was, he continued.

"Raven, you mean so much more to me then that little backstabber ever did. I… I love you." he whispered. Raven looked up sharply, and stared at him in shock. For once in her life, she didn't know what to say.

"I…" she started, unable to speak. Luckily, she didn't need too. At that moment, Beastboy leaned towards her and pressed his lips to hers. After a few stunned moments, Raven kissed him back.

They stayed that way for a while till lack of air finally forced them to part. "Beastboy… I love you too." she admitted. He smiled at her. "I know." he said and kissed her again. When they again parted, both decided to go back to the tower.

Their rest was short lived however, because an hour after Raven and Beastboy went back inside, the alarm went off. All of the titans rushed to the Ops. Room, where Moonfire was already tracking down what was wrong.

"Ugh!" yelled Sparrow, annoyed to say the least. "It's two in the morning! Can't those villains ever just let us rest?" she whined. Moonfire rolled her eyes. "Rest is for people who don't have to stop super criminals, Sparrow. Get over it." she told her.

Sparrow grumbled something under her breath but stopped complaining. Finally, Moonfire had tracked down the trouble. "What the…" she whispered. "What is it?" Cyborg asked.

"There's another disturbance in the time line… but I just, I can't find out where it's coming from. The only people with a time machine is your future selves and us…" she started, then suddenly stopped.

"Maybe some villain built a time machine." Darkstar suggested. "Maybe…" Moonfire admitted. "But just to be safe… when was the last time you guys saw the time machine?" she questioned. "I haven't seen it since you came back from the past." Crow told her. The others all gave the same answer.

"I'll go check on it." Stinger offered, running off. She came back a few minutes later, a look of horror on her face. "The time machine's gone!" she yelled. "What?!" everyone shouted. "I knew someone broke into the tower!" Moonfire hissed.

"Wait, even if they broke into the tower, without activating any of the alarms, they couldn't find the time machine unless they had one of us tell them." Wasp pointed out. "Yes, but who…" Starfire began but stopped when the front door opened.

Everyone spun around and stared at the person at the door, most in surprise, Robin and Moonfire in suspension. "Hey." said the blond haired girl at the door. Moonfire crossed her arms across her chest. "Terra. You wouldn't happen to know where the time machine is do you?"

Ugh! Seriously, I felt sick writing something this sappy, and I know I'm gonna regret it. Heck, I couldn't even look at it as I wrote it! Please review! For some reason, I'm always convinced a chapter totally sucks until someone reviews and tells me otherwise. Writer's paranoia? I don't know, but the point is review!
