Phoenix; Hey guys! so I want to apologize again for another two-parter, I made it because the chapter would've been too long so I was all what the heck. So anyway keep reading and I hope that you're enjoying the story :) Anyway... lets get on with the story.
"So that is what a Wy-att is!" said Starfire cheerfully. Phoenix had just explained her entire afternoon to Starfire. As she told her about her beach trip with Cyborg and her reunion with Wyatt, Starfire was secretly comparing both guy's feelings toward Phoenix and thinking of which one seemed genuine. Now based off of what Phoenix was telling her, Wyatt had done something terrible to her in the past and was now trying to apologize and get forgiveness, and Cyborg has 'the feelings' for Phoenix and she as well for him but, As soon as Wyatt came, she seemed to forget about her time with Cyborg and how she felt about him. This confused Starfire. How can one person start falling in love with one person but, when their ex shows up, they forget everything about the person they have true feelings for? Starfire saw how excited she was to talk to her because every time she mentioned either guy's name, her hair would spark. Starfire was a little worried for her bed.
"So what do you think I should do?" asked Phoenix hopeful. Starfire thought about it for a moment. She wanted to tell her how much Cyborg likes her but that would be wrong on her part. She also wanted to say how it was a little suspicious about how Wyatt just happened to be at the bank when she was there, now she was starting to sound like Robin. Star chuckled at this.
"Well friend, I believe that you need to decide who you care about more, Cyborg or this Wy-att person." said Star sensibly. Phoenix nodded.
"But I don't know who to choose, I mean I like Cyborg a lot and I love spending time with him but, I haven't seen Wyatt in a long time and he just told me that he loved me." Starfire walked with Phoenix to the door and grabbed her hands.
"Don't worry, you'll figure out who to choose." Star then smiled at her and Phoenix smiled back. Star then gave her a hug.
"Thanks Star I appreciate the talk, really." she smiled at her as the door opened
"Anytime friend, goodnight!" Phoenix nodded and walked towards her room.
The next morning was pretty calm, basically normal except, the fact that Phoenix didn't come down for breakfast. This confused all of the titans except Starfire. She figured that Phoenix would be in her room trying to contemplate her situation and how to choose the best option. When asked where Phoenix was, Starfire simply said that she was in her room thinking.
In Phoenix's room, Phoenix was staring up at her ceiling just...thinking. She thought about Wyatt, her family, the titans, Cyborg and even Jenny. She really did like Cyborg but, when Wyatt came, all her memories and feelings for him resurfaced and she could barely remember who Cyborg was. Wyatt was such a goof when they were kids, they would laugh and joke around, and talk about the craziest things. She missed those days when they were just friends, because once they started dating everything seemed to change and not for the better. The relationship started off right but when you add high school drama and a couple of jealous girls and hormonally crazy boys, it results in your boyfriend cheating on you with your rival. And for what? some stupid bet? Phoenix became even angrier just thinking about what happened.
"He cheated on me for a stupid bet? that doesn't even make sense! I mean Wyatt's not that stupid." she shook her head at the thought. "Cyborg would never do that." Cyborg. The thought of her favorite metallic friend made her smile. She loved the way he treated her. He was always so protective of her like she was a precious daisy. She knew she had a small crush on him, but she wasn't sure if he felt the same way. I mean what if he was protective because she was the youngest on the team, with her being seventeen, Raven and Beast boy were nineteen, Robin and Starfire were twenty and Cyborg was twenty-one. She was happy that they didn't baby her but she sometimes still felt insecure when in battle because they were all very mature, well maybe not all, but most of the and she was the powerful yet young and inexperienced one. She sighed and looked at her digital clock.
"9:18 am" she looked back up at the ceiling and let out a loud groan. Suddenly her phone rang.
"Hello?" she asked confused. She looked at the caller id but it said 'Blocked'
"Hey Fi, its me Wyatt." she half smiled
"Oh, hi Wyatt what's up?" she said cheerfully,
"I wanted to see if you could meet me at the park." he sounded slightly nervous
"Uhh, sure when?"
"Can you be here in like five minutes?" she raised an eyebrow
"Why is something wrong?" she asked nervously
"No! no, I just need to see you."
"Oh ok, well I guess I'll be there in like ten minutes."
"Cool, see you then."
"Alright see you-" He hung up before she could mutter her last word.
"Well that was rude." she said to herself as she made her way out of her room. "What's his problem anyway." As she was walking down the hallway, she ran into Robin.
"Hey Phoenix we didn't see you at breakfast, you ok?" he asked slightly concerned. She nodded
"Yea I was just thinking about stuff, plus I wasn't all that hungry." she answered as she kept walking
"Where are you going?" he asked noticing that she was walking towards the door.
"Oh I'm meeting a friend at the park, don't worry I'll keep my communicator on and I'll be back in like an hour or so." she waved and left. Robin just raised an eyebrow and headed back to the common room. Once there, he saw that the whole team was there relaxing as usual.
"Hey girls, did Phoenix tell you guys anything about her having a friend in town?" asked Robin looking at the only two females in the room. Raven, who was reading, shook her head no but Starfire looked around.
"Well she did tell me about this boy last night." said Star who was reading a magazine in a chair. Everyone looked at her confused but Beast boy was the first to speak up.
"What boy?" asked Beast boy with a small hint of concern
"Yea what boy?" asked Cyborg with more jealousy than concern in his tone
"She mentioned last night that she had met an ex-boyfriend of hers and that he wanted to do the rekindling of past relations with her." Robin pondered this for a moment but this new information angered Cyborg greatly. How dare this punk come try to take his girl. Wait, his girl? Besides that, Cyborg thought about all the danger she could be in which made him even more angry and worried.
"Maybe we should track her com signal just in case." said Raven looking at Robin.
"Yea I think that would be best, just in case something happens to her communicator we can see where it was last spotted." Everyone nodded. "Cy I need you to-"
"Already on it Rob." said Cyborg typing on his right arm.
Phoenix was on her way to the park. She decided to fly her normal speed seeing that she was in no rush to see him, because he didn't say if it was important or not. She was still confused about why Wyatt wanted to meet her right now. He seemed a little antsy on the phone, which confused her even more. As she neared the park, she saw Wyatt siting on a park bench looking around. She landed behind a tree and shifted back to her human form. When Wyatt saw her approaching, he smiled and walked up to her.
"Hey torch, what's up?" he asked nicely. she gave him a weak smile and waved.
"Hey, so what's going on?" she asked casually. he then grabbed her hands and kissed them.
"Felicia I wanted to ask you something." she raised an eyebrow at him but he held her hands close to his chest.
"W-What is it?" she asked nervously
"Run away with me." she just stared at him wide eyed.
"Fi?"
"..."
"Felicia?"
"What?, Why?" was all she could get out. He just pulled her close, her hands still being held by his.
"Fi, I've missed you so much. You don't even understand. After you went missing, I thought it was my fault, I thought u ran away because you hated me. I've been searching for you for 2 months and once I found you I knew that this would be my only chance to ask you to be with me." He looked at her with pleading and sincere eyes. She looked at him shocked and speechless.
"But Wyatt, I'm with the Titans, I just can't leave them." this frustrated Wyatt, but he wasn't about to give up just yet.
"You don't need them Fi, you'll have me. We'll travel the world, get married and maybe even our kids-" her jaw dropped
"What! did you just say that I didn't need them?!" she had snatched her hands out of his grip and was now furious with him.
"You don't! you really think that some stuck up superheroes actually care about you!?" she took a couple steps back and looked at him like he was a monster, tears threatening to run down her face.
"I need to go." she mumbled starting to walk past him.
"Where are you going?" he shouted towards her angrily.
"Wyatt, I don't ever want to see your rotten face again. You've disrespected my family and you expect me to just swoon over you and leave them, for what? to travel the world with you? you must be stupider than I thought." His jaw dropped, but then rage soon filled his body and he stepped in front of Phoenix preparing to slap her; but before his hand could touch her face, her hand grabbed his and pushed him backwards making him fall over. She then continued to saunter past him. Before she left, she looked back at his astonished face.
"Oh, and if you ever try to touch me again, I will incinerate your arm off." she then shifted into a Phoenix and flew off towards the tower.
It had been an hour since Phoenix came back to the tower. Everyone seemed to notice her shaking structure as she walked into the common room, got a bottle of water and left to the roof. Now everybody wanted to try to help her but, Starfire recommended that Cyborg go talk to her, since they were becoming so close. So here was Cyborg standing outside the door that lead to the roof where he knew Phoenix was hiding. "Alright, we can do this, we can do this." he took a deep breath and opened the door.
Phoenix was sitting on the edge of the roof with her head on her knees, as she looked out towards the city. Cyborg came over towards her and took a seat next to her. As soon as he sat down, Phoenix noticed his presence and almost jumped but relaxed slightly knowing that it was just him.
"So...what happened." he asked trying to start off the conversation right.
"He...wanted me to go with him." she muttered not daring to look him in the eye.
"Go with him where?" she sighed
"He wanted me to leave the team and travel the world with him." Cyborg drew a fist but then reminded himself that he needed to relax and so he unclenched his fist.
"Why? he knows this is your home right?" she nodded
"He claimed that he loved me..." she then put her head in her knees. Cyborg then pulled her close, giving her a hug.
"I used to think that he was the only one who truly loved me...because no else has really ever liked me like that." tears were now flowing down. She then rested her head on his shoulder.
"Now I know that's not true." he said bringing her chin up to face him
"How?" she asked with tearful eyes.
"Because we love you, you've been with us, what three months? and you already have five people who love you and care a lot. That sounds like a lot of love if ya ask me." he gave her a small smile and she smiled back.
"And I think that some of us love you just a little bit more than the others." he gave her a smirk and leaned in and she followed.
"Oh?, well I'd love to know who that some one is..." they were now inches away from each other's faces. As he kissed her, she felt fireworks go off in her stomach. His lips were soft and smooth, as they connected with hers. She was so happy, that she deepened the kiss making Cyborg moan slightly. She chuckled slightly at this, but then he pulled away giving her a big smile.
"You know, I know grown women who can't kiss like that." said Cyborg standing up. Phoenix chuckled
"Thanks." she smiled sheepishly as he was making his way towards the door.
"Wait where are you going?" she asked, he turned around and gave her a wink
"Hope you feel a lot better now Phoenix, 'cause that's what I came up here to do." he then walked through the door leaving Phoenix there to cope with her newfound feelings. But she just blushed madly thinking about how great the kiss was. The more she thought of it, the more her hair caught on fire. She noticed this and quickly put it out and then started laughing. With all this energy, she then shifted into her phoenix form and flew around the tower.
Raven and Beast boy were in their room meditating and watching tv. Beast boy's ears twitched and he looked towards the window and saw Phoenix flying around the tower screeching and cawing.
"Hey Rae, look." He pointed to the window and nudged her. She looked towards the window and raised an eyebrow. He looked at her.
"What do you think got into her?" he asked as she went back to meditating.
"Whatever it was, she must have liked it very much because it looks like she's not going to shift back for a while." He nodded and snuggled up next to her. He then shifted into a wolf and dozed off into a nap.
"Great, he forgot to turn off the tv again." thought Raven as she rolled her eyes. she then used her magic to turn off the tv and continued with her meditation, all the while, hearing a screech every now and again from a very happy bird outside.
Well that was great! So anyway I bet you guys have noticed that I changed Phoenix's age to 17. Now I changed it because I thought that she was a little too young for Cyborg so I just made her 17 so that there wouldn't be a huge age difference between the two. So anyway, Expect the next chapter to come out between this weekend and next weekend. And don't worry, there won't be any more two parters for a while ;)
Well I hope y'all keep reading! so ciao ;)
