A/N: Sorry for not updating

Exams and such, but those are horrible excuses.

The title, if you're wondering, is the name of the song that got me through this chapter. I guess sometimes the titles will correspond with the song I listened to while writing.

It's by Carly Rae Jespen, if you're wondering. She's adorable :)


Raven steadied herself before she brought her fist to Beastboy, or Gar's, door. She could just blow the door off, but she didn't want to make too grand of an entrance.

Knock. Knock.

"Who's there?" Beastboy asked. He was in rabbit form, nibbling on the tulips.

"Are you just going to crack a lame joke, or are you gong to open up?" Raven demanded impatiently.

"Oh.." Beastboy changed back, hastily putting his clothes on. His 'normal' wear wasn't suited for his shape shifting. He missed his suit. He opened the door, his clothes barely thrown on, and stared at Raven.

"What're you looking at?" She demanded a tad bit sharply.

"Nothing. Um , why're you here?" He asked rather directly.

"To apologize. What you did back there was purely out of the goodness of your heart, however much I doubt that. I completely overreacted, and I'm sorry." Raven apologized stiffly. She resisted the urge to shudder at the sickeningly sweetness of what she just said, but a small shudder passed through her anyway.

Beastboy noticed.

"You cold?" He asked. He though about it, and then corrected, "You don't have to apologize. And you don't have to torture yourself with all those fancy words and reasons. I only got half of it. And just to know, 'sorry' would've worked too." He grinned widely.

"Thanks." Raven smiled genuinely at him. She lifted her arms stiffly, and closed them down on his back.

"Raven?" Beastboy's muffled voice asked.

"What?"

"What are you doing?"

"I'm trying to hug you." She answered simply.

"Oh."

"Thanks for the flowers. They were nice."

"No problem."

The last few days of summer passed by without disruption. Soon, the school year was about to start, and the Titans were scrambling to get their stories straight.

Parking at school, the Titans stepped out and looked around their new school. Everyone who passed them stared. In a small town like Forks, being new was like being a celebrity. Everyone stared, everyone wanted to get to know you, touch you, everything; the works.

"Why is everyone staring? Is my ring working?" Beastboy asked, staring at his skin to check for any green.

"Okay, so…let's go our separate ways. Cy--Vic and Gar have the same homeroom, right? Star and I do too… and Raven…you're on your own." He looked sympathetically at Raven.

"It doesn't matter. Who has English first block?" Raven asked.

"Me." Cyborg and Beastboy both said simultaneously.

"Alright. See you then." Raven set off toward the school, one hand on her backpack. Heads turned, and eyes flickered over her grey jeans and black t-shirt with some punk-rock group emblazoned on the front. He black sweater dangled off her shoulder carelessly, revealing her holographic ivory skin.

Finally finding her homeroom, she entered the school's drama room. In it, she found no familiar faces. Finding a seat in the corner at the back, she lowered her eyes, and pulled out a horror novel to pass the time.

The bell rang, and in walked…

Edward Cullen.

Raven almost shuddered again. His greasy personality, and rude probing questions were enough to drive her away. Not to mention his seemingly jealous girlfriend. She'd rather kiss Beastboy again than face him at the moment. She prayed he was just visiting.

He took the seat next to her.

She looked away, turning her body.

"Hello."

Raven didn't respond.

"Still reading that monster novel?" He asked.

More heads turned. Everyone had though Edward was gay until Bella had come. Even then, he never looked at another girl, and tried very hard to disassociate himself from most of them. Now he was talking to the next new girl?

Edward heard all these thoughts, and assured himself he was merely entranced with her strange ability to hide her thoughts for him, just like Bella. What made her different was her…mystery, her secrecy, her…complicatedness.

"You're ignoring me." He stated. "Did I offend you?"

"No." Raven said standoffishly, though she turned herself around.

"Ah, now I can see your eyes. You're so much easier to read when I can see your eyes. Though you're still quite difficult. Much more complicated than simple Bella."

"That was immensely rude of you to call her simple. Everyone is complicated. You don't know what's going through her head, so you have absolutely no right." Raven spat.

"Ahh, right you are." Edward smiled inwardly. She had spoken the truth. He truly didn't know. "You know, your eyes are the most peculiar colour. I'm sorry if I've asked you before, but do you wear contact lenses? Your eyes are so beautifully painted, and they mesmerize me."

Raven shuddered at that.

"No. I don't. And thank you. Your eyes are nice too…they shine like the grease off a homeless man's hair." She smirked.

"How poetic." He complimented.

Beastboy and Cyborg watched Raven leave, then said their goodbyes to the blushing Starfire and Robin.

"You know, one day, they're gonna…" Cyborg started with a mischievous grin. Beastboy cackled. More heads turned.

"You know, I feel like I'm still green, the way everyone's staring.." Beastboy commented.

"I guess they don't get a lot of…new... around here." Cyborg assumed.

"Where's the art room?" Beastboy asked no one.

Eventually, they found it. They walked in after the bell, and even more heads turned.

"It's like the middle ages, the amount of heads that roll.." Beastboy joked.

A familiar giggle cut through the silence.

"Oh, hey Bella!" Beastboy exclaimed, grabbing a seat next to her. Cyborg followed.

"Wow, you're in my homeroom! That's so…awesome!" Bella smiled cheesily.

"Yeah! So what class do you have next?" Beastboy asked.

"English, you?" Bella replied.

"Same. Him too." Beastboy motioned at Cyborg.

"Great! I'll bet we'll have tons of fun!" Bella gushed unnaturally.

Beastboy winked.

Bella winked back.

Starfire kept up with Robin easily. He sped through the school, trying to find the math room.

"Robi--I mean Richard! It is here!" Starfire called out.

"Oh, thanks St--Kory.." Robin thanked, tripping over their names.

They were early, due to Robin's excessive worrying and perfectionist-ism.

"Hello Alice!" Starfire called out to the pale girl sitting in the back.

"Cory! How wonderful! And Richard too! Jasper, Emmett look, they're in here too!" Alice motioned for her brothers to look over.

Emmett's face lit up like a Christmas tree.

"Well hello, Cory." He grinned, causing Starfire to blink several times dazedly.

"N-nice t-t-to m-meet you.." Jasper stammered, turning back toward the window and gazing out in concentration.

"Oh, don't mind Jasper, he's got some…stomachproblems." Alice smiled widely, looking a lot like an msn emoticon.

"Alice! We must participate in the hanging out once again!" Starfire exclaimed, turning a few more heads.

The Cullens hung out with people?

Other than Bella? Everyone wondered.

"Hey." Robin greeted Emmett, with well-controlled animosity, considering the way he had looked at Starfire.

"What's up?" Emmett asked, still watching Starfire giggle with Alice.

"Nothing really. School." Robin lowered his voice, trying to sound…"with it".

"Cool.."

"So…she's some…hot meat?" Robin tried to make small talk.

And failing miserably.

"Dude, that's… not cool." Emmett looked slightly disgusted, but amused.

This might be harder than I thought, he said to himself.
