A/N: ok it's been while, I know. I didn't have my computer so I wasn't really thinking about my stories so I had no idea what to write. Here you go anyway!
Chapter 10
The pair exited the movie theater into the mid-evening light. They walked hand in hand to a small Italian restaurant for dinner. There they enjoyed a Lady and the Tramp spaghetti scene. When their lips met BB deepened the kiss with a smile.
They left the restaurant long after the sun had faded from the sky. Jinx sighed contently before saying, "Thank you Beast-"
"It's Gar," he interrupted. He elaborated at her confused stare. "That's my name, Gar Logan. It just occurred to me that you didn't know that."
She smiled at his faith in her. "Thank you Gar, this has been amazing."
He smiled in return as they strolled into the park. As they moved in the darkness Jinx found her eyelids drooping. When Garfield noticed this, he led her over to a bench and sat her in his lap.
She smiled with contentment. "Thank you," she thought. "You're the nicest guy I ever met. You're the first to see any good in me. I'm so glad I met you." Out loud she said, "I love you, Gar."
His eyes widened in shock before a happy grin slid into his face. "I love you too, Jinx." With that, she fell asleep in his lap, head against his chest.
Looking at her he couldn't help but think she looked so much different than when he first met her. The first time they crossed she was cruel, mean, destructive, and frightening. Looking at her now, she reminded him of an innocent little girl, or a beautiful angel. She looked nothing like the fierce criminal he originally thought she was.
The thought made him smile as he leaned his head against hers and slept.

They awoke with a start, both with a sudden sense of danger. They shot up and glanced around searching for whatever radiated the feeling. Upon discovering nothing, Beast Boy gripped her hand and led her from the area. When they exited they faced each other.
"What was that?" asked Jinx seriously.
"No idea, but I think it might be a good idea to head home for now."
She nodded and turned to leave. She stopped, gripped his arms, and pulled him into a kiss.
When they pulled apart, gasping for air, BB said, "I thought the boy was supposed to handle the good bye kiss?"
"That's sexist. There's no reason I couldn't handle it. Besides, you're too nervous to even try!" He only laughed before giving her one last kiss and striding off for home.

Jinx walked in the door to see Gizmo waiting up for her. He was tapping his foot impatiently. "Well it's about time, Pinkie!"
"Calm down gnome," she replied angrily. "What's the problem?"
"I know what I want to use that blackmail for."
She froze, fear lacing her heart. "And what's that?" she asked much more calmly than she felt.
"Tomorrow I'm in charge of the Hive, got it?" he replied.
"That's it?" she asked with shock at his less-than-ambitious request. "Um… Sure, why not?"
"Good," he said with a nod. "Get some sleep, you'll need it."
To those words she nodded and exited the room.
The boy sat in silence for a while before speaking out loud. "Did you get it?" he asked.
"Every bit," a voice replied. A screen appeared in front of the boy genius. On it played a video of Jinx and 'Gar' sleeping on a park bench.

Gizmo's big plan while in charge was to rob some freshly constructed jewelry store. It was so new the rest of the block was still under construction. With it being such a weak plan Jinx assumed it was just some ploy to get the others to give him a more permanent position of authority.
How wrong she was…
It was a simple job, just him and Jinx. She had no idea what the others were doing, and Gizmo's only comment was that they were 'around'. Gizmo set a slow pace as they left the heist, heading toward the construction yard. That little bit confused Jinx, as she was sure that the Titans couldn't be far behind them.
Sudden words confirmed her suspicions. "Wow, you guys really are dumb," it said.
The villainous pair whirled around to face the speaker, Robin. "It's the pit- sniffer Titans!" He sounded annoyed, but there was something in his voice that sounded almost like… triumph?
He gripped Jinx's hand and sprinted down the way to the construction yard. They emerged onto a mostly finished cross road. The buildings towered on all four sides of her, blocking most escape routes.
They sprinted forward to the street directly in front of them. Once they had taken a few steps down the road Gizmo stopped, a smirk on his face.
The Titans took up positions in the center of the cross roads. "Give up!" shouted Robin. "We've got you out numbered!"
"Wrong on all accounts, feather brain!" replied Gizmo. He snapped his fingers and suddenly flying robots with laser cannons attached moved out onto the four streets, five to each. Another ten floated above them.
To her right, Jinx saw Adonis and Mumbo appear. On her left Atlas and Trident did the same. Mammoth and Privet Hive strode out onto the street that they had just ran in from. See-more was riding one of the overhead robots, his laser eye locked on the Teen Titans. I seconds the team was surrounded.
It all made sense now! The keeping quiet, the lame request, followed by an equally lame mission, it had all led up to that moment. Up to the moment to Teen Titans were completely surrounded and out numbered in Gizmo's trap.
"Attack!" yelled Gizmo. With that they all rushed forward, save Jinx who was still frozen in shock. Lasers flashed, metal smashed, and the all-out rumble raged on with a vengeance.
That was when Beast Boy saw the ringleader for this whole thing. Gizmo was floating on his jet pack in the shadow of an entrance to one of the half way finished buildings, typing away furiously at a controller for the robots. Morphing into a tiger he launched himself at the mechanic—and passed right through him!
Too late he realized it was a hologram, and he fell into the building. With a wicked grin the real Gizmo launched a volley of missiles at the support beams, and the building began crumbling.
Jinx stared in horror as time seemed to so down. "It's all my fault!" she thought as her eyes welled with tears. "Everything I do brings bad luck to everyone I care about!"
"That's a pessimistic matter of opinion if you ask me…" Garfield's words echoed in her mind.
With a sudden desperation she pointed at the building and focused her power. "If there's any good in my powers, then save him!"
The building collapsed on top of Beast Boy.
