Well, Christmas, sorry bout the delay, I was taking a break from writing to finish the next part of the arc in my head, and cause school has been a little hectic. Yea, I'm a happy ending/happy story guy. Too many problems bug me sometimes, so there wont be too much conflict with them between each other. Doesn't mean no problems ;).

Read on, and thank you to all reviewers. But not to the people who only read and don't review… that's right, you, reading this sentence right now if you aren't one of about 5(?) people

Anyway, onward

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

As Raven woke up, she wanted to remember why she was smiling so much. 'Right, I kissed Beast Boy…' and she tried to not smirk again. She had been stupid after all. Denying her emotions had actually caused more problems then holding everything back. And she felt great. She felt like she had more control now then ever… 'Oops, too much happy.' The objects in her room began to lift off the floor. 'Okay, maybe I do still have to control my emotions. But at least this isn't hurting anything.'

As she got dressed in front of her mirror and stared at her black and red highlighted hair, she realized that she had been just wearing it long for years. Sure, it was longer now, nearing her shoulders, but it was getting boring. She would ask Starfire for some hair ties.

She walked out of her room, down the hallway, and almost tripped over Beast Boy, who was lying there on the floor. Looked like he had never made it to his room in the first place. It was still early, around 6:00, so she picked him up and carried him back to his room. He didn't wake up. He made some sort of noise half way down the street, but beyond the letters 'm' and 'x' she couldn't identify a word. He was almost like some little child when he slept. It was mildly amusing. After wading through the piles of trash, she put him back in his bed, turned off the light, and left.

Well, she had gotten up too early, so she decided to make the best of it. She went into the living room and saw that the place was even worse than it had looked last night. She got to picking up trash and the clothing Kupid had stolen and scattered everywhere (using her powers of course).

'Honestly, Starfire needs to control that thing.'

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Beast Boy," said Cyborg knocking on the door, "Get up! It's Christmas, not time to sleep in!"

"Yea, yea, mph…" was Beast Boy's response. He heard Cyborg walk on, and wondered how he had gotten back into his room. All he remembered was falling asleep on the floor.

'Wow, I really need to work on my memory. Its kinda blank after kissing Raven… but I don't really care right now do I.'

He opened his door, and heard sounds from the living room. It looked like everyone else was already by the tree opening presents. He walked down the hallway, and almost forgot to get Raven's present out of his room. He ran back and found Kupid in there. He had to hand it to the little demon, if it wasn't for him last night might not have happened. He also noticed that the demon now had one set of eyes again, and no longer had the double pairs of arms. The wings were bigger though.

"What are you doing in here?"

The demon merely winked at him and flew out of the room at top speed. 'Little freak,' thought Beast Boy. He got Raven's earrings out of the box, and walked back to the living room.

"Merry Christmas everybody!"

Starfire was first to respond. "Hello Beast Boy. Would you perhaps like to participate with me in the Tamaranian festival ritual? Robin will be joining as well!"

"Oh, uh, no thanks. I'll let you two do it," he said with a huge smile. Robin mouthed 'save me,' and Raven smirked. Speaking of Raven…

"I've never been good at this kinda… well… here, I got you this." She took if from him with interest and unwrapped the gift.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

As she opened it, she was in shock. She could feel a smile creeping up and her eyes widening it. It was the pair of earrings she had seen in the store, but how…

"H-How did you know?" she stammered out.

"I can have waves of brilliance once in a while," he said with a smile.

She noticed something else. "Beast Boy, there's some type of spell on these…" She had almost forgotten that she had seen him walk out of the magic store.

"Yup. Venusian Aura. It gives the wearer an aura of brilliance, according to that freak who's been trying to kill us."

This was amazing. It was one of the best gifts she had ever gotten. Even she couldn't have gotten that charm right. And Mr. White, though a psychopath, had apparently done it well. He didn't try to curse her or anything. What was his game, if he missed an obvious way to harm her? But that was a thought for another day. She was too happy right now. She put them on, and could feel the effect instantly, almost like she was glowing (A/N: figurative sense, not literally). She looked at her image in a mirror and couldn't help smiling. There weren't any actually physical changes, but she just seemed to almost shimmer, and her features all seemed more perfect. And the jewelry looked good on her too. Beast Boy was just standing and smiling, watching her watch herself. She leaned in to give Beast Boy a quick kiss, but forgot that the others didn't know what was going on between them yet. Before she knew it, it was about 10 seconds before they broke apart.

There was a silence, broken by Starfire. "That was wonderful."

"Yea," Cyborg added. "A little sudden though you two."

"Oh, right," Beast Boy smirked, almost laughing. "Forgot to tell you guys, heh. We kinda got together last night." Raven decided to just stand there and not blush.

There was an awkward silence with everyone just staring at them until Robin cleared his throat and said, "Right, well, Starfire, weren't going to go do…"

"Ah, yes. I almost forgot. Come Robin!" And she practically dragged him away.

Raven and Beast Boy just stood there with Cyborg, who was still processing everything. "So you two…"

"Mhm."

"Okay… well, I'm gonna go see what's on TV. Here's your gifts, straight from The Man himself," he said with a smirk. As he walked off, they both opened them. He had gotten (looks more like made) Beast Boy a new game for the Tricube (A/N: can you say brand name rip off?) and Raven an electronic diary. Next they picked up Robin's gifts, which he had left under the tree. His were always practical. He gave Beast Boy and alphabetical list of every animal ever discovered, even those from other planets, and Raven a very rare type of incense with a powerful calming effect. Apparently he and Starfire had collaborated.

Raven thought that now would be a good time for hers. She had not left it under the tree on purpose. She grabbed Beast Boy's hand, and when he asked what was going on, he felt something dropped into it. She took her hand away, and he saw it.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Are these… keys?" he stammered?

"Yes," she said slightly smirking.

"But what…"

"To the new moped sitting in the garage. The one you're always looking at in the store."

He couldn't even string words together. "Y-, you, g-…"

"Yes, I got you the moped."

"But that must have been REALLY expensive!?"

"I have a friend there, so it wasn't too bad. Are you going to thank me?"

"Of course." He kissed her again, another long one. Cyborg wolf whistled. "You are amazing."

"Thank you. Now lets go eat breakfast. I'm hungry."

"Trying to win me through my stomach?"

"Isn't the way to a man's heart further south?"

"Got me there," he said with smirk. 'Its gonna be a good day.'

Yay, Christmas chapter in the middle of September! Again, sorry about the break, im trying to get back into my routine. That's all for now!
