R&R. OMEGEE, I'm having a total nergasm right now; Raven is confirmed to be getting her own live action show :D Plus, I just discovered she's on DC Universe, which I will now be running to the store to get, even though I have no money :DDD

We both know I'm easy, come love me, jump on it,
I'm afraid that I might die one day without hearing you say you wanted me all along,
where have I been hiding all of your life,
I'd like to think that you might tell me, one night,
no job, and no time for extra problems,
so she spit at her bosses and on the secretaries from her office,
bird cages can't hold freight trains,
she's fire meets gas, meets lightning, don't cry when Friday night goes on and on, on and on...

"Raven! I wish to show you my costume!" Starfire said, while knocking on the empath's door. Raven slid her door open as put down her book as Starfire entered the room wearing the short green dress. She had on the matching shoes and the glittery fake wings. The kids were going to be in for a hoot once they saw Starfire flying in the costume. Raven was impressed at how well Starfire had done; she even got the hair down pact.
"Wow. Star. I'm kind of impressed." Raven said, a slight grin on her face.
"Thank you! Robin has said I look most wondrous." Starfire replied, zipping around the room.
"Well the kids are gonna be impressed too." Raven said. It was the eve of Halloween and Beast Boy had still not revealed what her costume was. The Tower, however, was beautifully decorated. Cyborg and Beast Boy hung spiders in front of Raven's room (which she promptly took down and threw at them) and fake spiderwebs everywhere. They threw orange and black streamers everywhere and had "scary" things all over the place. Even Raven was impressed at how much effort they put into this.
"Oh, Raven! You are needed downstairs. Cyborg asked me to inform you of this." Starfire said. Raven sighed but thanked Starfire and floated down to the commons room. She found Beast Boy and Cyborg waiting for her at the kitchen table.
"Raven, can you come to the store with us. Robin said he had to get his costume, and Star...well Star isn't as organized as you." Cyborg said. Raven sighed and nodded.
"Fine. As long as you buy me some tea." Raven replied as Cyborg smiled.
"Great. We just need some candy to give out to the little kiddies." Cyborg said.
"Well I'll be with you guys tomorrow, so who's going to give the candy out?"
"Already got that covered; Jinx says she'll house sit with Wally. Said she didn't want to go trick or treating this year."
"So that means we should get some extra candy so Jinx doesn't eat it all." Beast Boy finished. Raven nodded and followed them to the T-Car. Beast Boy begged Cyborg to let him drive, but as usual, he said no. Raven rolled her eyes at such a childish display but felt herself smiling at their silliness.
"You know, I'm pretty sure I could drive a car. Right, Raven?" Beast Boy said, still pouting.
"I wouldn't bet on it." Raven replied in her usual monotone. Cyborg laughed.
After a twenty minute drive, Cyborg, Beast Boy and Raven arrived at the grocery store. Beast Boy was practically bouncing off the walls and Raven was shaking her head in embarrassment.
"Knock it off BB. We're here for one thing, and that's candy." Cyborg said, grabbing a shopping cart.
"Wait. How are these kids going to get to the Tower anyway?" Raven asked, as the all walked down the candy aisle.
"Oh, yeah. Well the ferry service is offering free rides to the Tower for the kids tomorrow. Starting at 4:30 tomorrow, there will literally be a boatload of kids coming to the Tower." Cyborg said.
"So shouldn't more heroes be protecting the Tower?"
"Relax, I'm gonna go call and see if some Titans from around the world can come and house sit for us." Cyborg said, calming Raven down. She just nodded and grabbed as many bags of candy as her arms could hold before depositing them into the shopping cart.

"Please?"
"Nope. You'll just have to wait." Beast Boy said. Raven growled and picked at her lunch, which Robin made this time. It was a simple sandwich; Robin never tried much. Unfortunately, tomorrow would be Beast Boy, and if Raven knew him, he would make something with tofu. Cyborg usual went out for food on those days.
"But I'm tired of waiting! Can't you just tell me?"
"Nope. And it's not just cuz you're being mean." Beast Boy said, finishing his sandwich.
"I'm not being mean; I'm being reasonable." Raven said, pushing her sandwich away.
"Like I said; You'll find out tomorrow." Beast Boy said, throwing his dish into the sink. Raven groaned, threw her dish into the sink, and disappeared through a portal she created on the wall.
"Those portals just keep getting creepier and creepier." Cyborg muttered.
"I heard that!" Raven said, through the spiraling portal. It disappeared and left the rest of the Titans bewildered.
"Come on BB, just tell her already." Cyborg said.
"Nu-uh. I'm not telling Raven till tomorrow." Beast Boy said, crossing his arms across his chest.
Later that night, Raven sat at the foot of her bed, trying to figure out her Halloween costume. Finally, she couldn't take it anymore and barged into Beast Boy's room. He was playing that new Legend of Z game and was so concentrated, that he didn't notice Raven in his doorway.
"Can you give me a hint?" Raven pleaded. Beast Boy screamed at the voice, before pressing pause on his game.
"Oh, it's only you." he said with a relived sigh.
"Hint?"
"Oh fine." Beast Boy grumbled. He had to catch himself from saying "Only because I think you're cute" (A/N: Oh gawd. That was so unnecessary. Excuse me while I gag on this fluff)
"Will I like the costume?"
"Hell no."
"Is it skimpy?"
"Depends on what you think is skimpy."
"Is it nerdy?"
"You know it." Raven sighed and slapped her forehead.
"God, I hate you." she said before stalking off. Beast Boy only chuckled at his angered teammate.

"Beast Boy, wake up." Raven said gently. After having a little argument with Beast Boy, she returned to his room to find that he wasn't there. She found him in the commons room watching television, and seeing as she couldn't sleep, joined him. They must've fallen asleep later on. To her embarrassment, she found that she had her arms wrapped around Beast Boy, and she was lying on his chest. Quickly untangling herself from Beast Boy, she stood up and dusted her cloak off.
"Beast Boy." she said gingerly, while tapping his shoulder. He only stirred slightly, before smiling in his sleep.
"Beast Boy." Raven said more loudly. Still nothing. She shook him around, but to no avail. Normally, she would use her powers and teleport him, but she barely had enough power to levitate him off the couch.
"Fine, you lazy bum." she grumbled underneath her breath. She used her remaining power to lightly push him on the floor. She grabbed both of his legs and began dragging him to his room. Just when she reached his doorway, his eyes fluttered open and he stared at Raven.
"R-Raven?"
"Oh good, you're awake." With a slight blush on her face, she dropped his legs and walked away, leaving Beast Boy bewildered.

The Cretin: Thank you again, for the double review! And yes, it was a Phoenix :). Thanks, you're fun to reply to!
Black rose- raven angel: Yes, you were correct with Phantom Planet :) And OMIGOD, you're gonna love the next chapter! :D
Haha, ^ Twas, Phantom Planet, last time. This time, the hint is, it's practically Beast Boy's catchphrase. But pluralized. Gah. That's so easy. Sorry for the length, but I don't like starting the big stuff at the middle of chapter :/ Oh meh gawd, I gotta post the chorus to this song, it's amazing awesome, it's like my BbxRae themesong XD
She's the dropkick queen of the weekend,
No, you can't keep her in line when she's devouring life.
Yes, she's taking it in just as fast as she can,
and when she falls right off the deep end,
don't bother throwing a line; you'd be wasting your time,
she's learned how to survive breathing rock and roll,
pumping her fist and she's shaking her butt,
when she comes to the show she don't take shit from no man.
Oh, and by the way, this isn't screamo or anything like that. It's usually just soft rock, indie or alt. rock.
