"I figured out I love you."
Raven silently gasped. Did he just say what I think he said? She thought. She looked at him. He was smiling and had a hopeful look. She looked down and shook her head, backing into the metal wall behind her.
"I'm sorry, but I don't feel the same," Raven whispered. Robin's smile turned into a grimace.
"What do you mean? A week ago, you loved me! What happened?" He asked angrily. Raven stared at the polished floor.
"You had asked Starfire to marry you, if I'm correct. I felt I would never have a chance, so I kept telling myself to stop loving you," She replied. She could feel the anger and sadness radiating off of Robin. "And, someone helped with it," She mumbled to herself.
"Yes and I think that asking Starfire to marry me was a mistake," Robin replied. He took a small step towards Raven.
"No, don't say that. You love her, I can tell. You're just confused. Don't ruin what you have with Starfire for me," She said true fully. Robin's eyes turned to a glare.
"Don't push me away, Raven," He stated. Raven shook her head. She started walking away when he grabbed her arm. "Please, don't push me away," He said. Raven roughly pulled her arm out and looked at him. She shook her head in response and walked down the corridor. "Let me guess, Red X is the one that helped you," Raven stopped and turned back around on her heel. She looked at Robin with wide eyes.
"How-,"
"I'm great at reading lips," He replied. "So, did he?" Raven looked at him and nodded, then disappeared into the floor. Robin sighed and ran a gloved-hand through his spiked hair. He looked at the spot where she just was then walked towards the gym. He had a lot of training to do.
Raven phased onto the roof an sat on the edge, looking into the clear bay. She sighed. I just let go of the one person I truly cared about and the weird thing is, I don't care. She bitterly laughed.
"What're you laughing at?" Came a voice behind her. She knew the voice and patted the spot next to her. He followed and sat next to her. She looked at him and sighed. "What's up Buttercup?" He asked.
"I thought you called me Sunshine," She stated. He rolled his eyes, even though she couldn't see it.
"It doesn't rhyme. So what's wrong?" Raven looked at Red X and shook her head.
"Do you want to know what Robin told me today?" He nodded, even though he had an idea. "He told me he loved me."
"What did you say?" He asked, hoping for what he wanted to hear. She looked at him.
"I told him I didn't love him like that anymore. I told him I love someone else," was her reply. He nodded.
"Who's the lucky guy?" He asked. She looked off into the distance and mumbled something. "What?" She mumbled it a little louder. "You need to say it like this," She sighed.
"You," She whispered loud enough for him to hear. He looked at her and his jaw dropped.
"M-Me?" He stuttered. Red X doesn't stutter! He mentally punished himself.
"I understand if you don't feel the same," She started to get up, but he grabbed her wrist and pulled her back down.
"You need to give a man a chance to reply, babe," Raven glared at him. She didn't mind Sunshine and Buttercup, but she hated being called Babe. "I love you too," He replied with a smirk. Raven's eyes widened and she looked at him shocked.
"R-really?" She stuttered, afraid it would be a prank. X wouldn't do that to me though. He nodded. He then did something that surprised Raven even more. He took his mask off. He had messy black hair. It wasn't spiked, but it looked like he never brushed it, but actually does. His skin was pale, but not as pale as Raven's. His eyes were a beautiful emerald color.
"I thought it would be fair, since I get to hear your voice and see your face," He stated in a clear voice which was music to Raven's ears. She slightly smiled and nodded. "So, what do you think?" He asked.
"Beautiful," Raven said looking into his eyes. He smiled.
"Can I try something?" He asked. Raven nodded, knowing what he was talking about. He leaned down as she stood on her tippy toes. Their lips touched and Red X smiled into the kiss. Red X's tongue touched her lip, begging for entrance. She slowly opened her lips cautiously and his tongue slipped in. Both of their tongues battled for dominance . Red X slowly placed his arms around her waist and she wrapped her arms around his neck. He pulled her in closer. They stayed like that for what seemed like hours until Raven's lungs needed to breath. She pulled away and gasped for air. She then looked around and expected to see things encased in black bubbles and things blown to pieces. She gasped when she saw nothing amiss.
"What, that bad?" Red X asked. Raven shook her head.
"No, I just thought something would blow up," She confessed. Red X chuckled.
"You should have more faith in yourself," He stated as he grabbed her hand gently and held it.
"Hmm, sorry that my powers run on emotions and that normally things blow up when I feel anything and that I was raised to suppress said emotions," She said without emotion.
"Yeah, but clearly you can now feel, so don't worry, 'kay?" Red X said. Raven sighed.
"Fine, but if anything bad happens because I felt emotion, then I will personally blame you," Raven threatened. Red X chuckled.
"Alright," He laughed. Raven nodded, then took on a serious look.
"Ok, if we are going to have a relationship, I need to know your real name," She stated, letting go of his hand and crossing her arms. Red X sighed.
"It's Zeke," He said quickly. Raven nodded.
"I like it," She said as wind blew her hair into her face. Red X grabbed a purple lock and placed it behind her ear and out of her face. She looked up at him and a small smile graced her lips.
Just then, the roof door opened quickly and Robin stepped out. He looked at the two holding onto each other and glared.
"Let go of her! She doesn't deserve you," Robin stated angrily at Red X. Raven sighed and shook her head.
"Robin, I have already told that I do not feel for you the way you feel for me, so stop this now," Raven commanded calmly. Robin shook his head and took a step towards Red X. Red X let go of Raven and took a step towards Robin as well. Raven tried to grab his arm, but he looked at her and shook his head, then grabbed his mask and placed it back on.
"Well, Robin, what do you want? A fight?" He asked in his transformed voice. Robin nodded.
"Yes, to prove to Raven she deserves better," Robin stated. Red X laughed bitterly. He took another step and bent low in battle position.
"This coming from the man that asks her best friend to marry him when he knew she had feelings for him!" Red X exclaimed angrily. Robin glared and got into a battle stance.
"Stop!" Raven yelled, but they both weren't listening to her. Robin took out a couple freeze discs while Red X grabbed two sticky X's. Robin threw the discs and Red X jumped and threw the X's. Robin dodged them and charged at the now landing Red X. Red X took one step to the side and Robin missed him. He almost fell off the roof, but caught himself. He looked to his right and noticed Raven was missing.
"Nice, you chased Raven away," Robin stated.
"You know I didn't," Red X said hatefully. He then charged at Robin and they started attacking each other. Robin threw a punch at Red X and connected with his stomach. Red X bent over in pain, then shot back up and grabbed Robin's arm and slung him around and let go, causing Robin to stumble towards the edge. He fell off, but caught the railing and Red X ran to the side, to get kicked in the jaw as Robin got back on the metallic roof. Red X rubbed his jaw and smiled.
"That almost hurt. Almost," Red said cockily then lunged at Robin. Robin tried to get out of the way, but failed and ended slamming his back into the volleyball pole. He fell down in pain and got up weakly. They both got back into their battle stances.
They didn't notice the other titans come up from hearing the noise. Once Cyborg exited the door, He aimed his cannon at Red X and was prepared to shoot when Raven appeared in front of him.
"No!" She shouted at Cyborg and grabbed his robotic arm. "Don't shoot," She said calmly. "Let me handle it," She then turned around and disappeared into the floor, then appeared again in the middle of the fight that was progressing. Robin and Red X stopped and looked at Raven. "Stop now!" She yelled, looking at their masked eyes. Red X nodded and dropped his stance. Robin on the other hand, shook his head and lunged at Red X, dodging Raven, and tackling the unsuspecting Red X to the ground. Raven growled and threw Robin off with her black power. "I said to STOP!" She yelled the last word, looking completely at Robin. Robin looked down in shame. Raven then looked at Red X and helped him up. He nodded at her and disappeared. Raven looked at his spot he was just standing at and sighed, then turned to Robin and the rest of the titans.
"I do not understand, Why did you help up Red X, friend Raven?" Starfire asked curiously. Raven looked down and ignored her.
"Because she loves him," Robin stated sadly. Raven glared at him and looked at the other titans, who had shocked faces, except for Cyborg, who knew this was coming.
"Is this true, friend Raven?"Starfire asked shocked. A tan hand covered her mouth as she said this. Raven looked at her and nodded slowly. Starfire gasped more. "I do not understand your choice in guys, but everyone deserves love, so I am happy for you," Starfire said and walked up to Raven to give her a hug. She placed her tan arms around Raven's back as Raven stiffened, but slowly adjusted to the touch. Starfire let go and walked back to the others. Cyborg nodded at Raven then looked at Robin.
"What's with the face?" Cyborg asked Robin. Robin shook his head and looked at Raven, then back at Cyborg.
"I just don't approve. Excuse me, but I need to think things over," With that, Robin got up and left the roof, with Starfire looking at him sadly.
"Ok, am I the only one that noticed that everyone has someone to love?" Beast Boy whined. Cyborg glared at him.
"I don't have a girl too, so shut up," Cyborg hissed. Beast Boy glared at him.
"I don't mean you, but even Raven has someone! And she's the ice queen!" Beast Boy cried and looked at Raven, who glared at him and started walking towards Beast Boy in slow creepy steps.
"You best run, BB," Cyborg laughed. Beast Boy nodded and disappeared into the tower, with an angry Raven right behind him. That left Jinx and Cyborg by themselves. Jinx was laughing, then frowned. Cyborg noticed. "What's wrong?"
"Robin said he had stuff to think over. Do you think it'll have anything to do with Raven and Red X?" Jinx said with concern in her voice. Cyborg looked at her and scratched the back of his neck.
"It better not, or he's asking for an ass-whooping."
