Alright, RobStar fans-for those of you who freaked out over the BlackX thing-
Fair reminder that while Robin is still himself, Jason Todd (as everyone is just putting out, and I'm going along with it for the hell of it) is gonna be Red X. Robin's not gonna cheat-oh no. No, no, no, no, no.
Anyways, enjoy part 2 of the partaaay xD. Pretty much the last part-because I've got more ideas and um, yeah-they're AWESOME and I NEED to get started on them!
Enjoy the next chapter, everyone :)
Eventually Jinx left to go join her boyfriend on the dance floor. Raven didn't mind being alone again. In a way. Of course, she was used to being alone all the time. But seeing Beast Boy and her friends smile and laugh without her...didn't feel so satisfying. And Beast Boy dancing with Terra wasn't making things better either. Her hand tightened around her cup; she wasn't liking this. Beast Boy better keep his hands to himself or else...
"Go Beast Boy! Go Beast Boy! Go Beast Boy! Go Beast Boy!"
Raven had barely been paying attention anymore, sulking away, but when she did, she could barely see him; her curiosity building, she stood up to get a better view. It turned out that everyone was circled around Beast Boy-he was in the spotlight. Her feet continued to carry her forward, weaving through the crowd. She completely forgot about her drink.
By the time she made it to the front, she found herself standing next to Starfire...
And right when Robin jumped in the circle from nowhere, dancing too-in the middle with Beast Boy.
"Go Beast Boy! Go Robin! Go Beast Boy! Go Robin!" The crowd cheered, and Raven couldn't help but clap and smile. Starfire was cheering and chanting, clapping her hands, and shaking her hips to the hypnotic beat that Beast Boy and Robin were dancing to. "Go! Go! Go! Go!"
Beast Boy caught Raven's eyes and he smiled wide. He popped and locked, coming up and down from the floor. Once he made it to the floor, he started breakdancing, and Robin was making the crowd-or the girls preferably-go wild when he started with his dougie. Beast Boy caught on, and he slid up from the floor, waving his hips suggestively, and started his dougie too.
Robin, still dougieing, waved Cyborg over, then beckoned Starfire and Raven to join in too. Cyborg was quick to get in the middle with his dougie, and Starfire joined in as well with her feminine flare.
While her teammates kept beckoning her, Raven just shook her head. She was about to turn around when Aqualad and Speedy pushed her into the middle.
"'Aaaaye!" the crowd cheered with enthusiasm.
Oh no, Raven thought in panic. Oh no, oh no, oh no, oh no.
"C'mon, Rae!" Beast Boy yelled over the uproar, still doing his thing. Raven was trapped; her teammates weren't gonna let her go anywhere. They were all urging her, almost surrounding her.
"We gotcha!" Cyborg said next.
"C'mon, Raven!" said Robin. "I'm dancing!"
"Please!" Starfire begged, getting into her dougie, all smiles and giggles.
Raven gulped. She looked into Beast Boy's pleading eyes, then into each one of her teammates, and the crowd around them; Terra was in the front, giving her a big smile and thumbs up.
Better...get this over with, Raven thought. She gave her friends a forced smile and nod; Starfire was next to her, giving her the signal to follow her lead. She leaned from side to side, waving her hands, and Raven followed suite. Eventually, she got it, and the rest of the Titans moved in the same directions as Starfire and Raven were going. Beast Boy was on Raven's other side, and Robin was on Starfire's. Cyborg was in the back, but he towered over all of them.
Raven found herself giggling and actually having fun. She even did her own dance, twisting her hips, waving her arms; it took her a while before she was more out there, doing more traveling with her feet. The crowd just kept urging them on. Together. The Teen Titans. Front and center.
The song changed, the crowd whooped and hollered, and the circle merged back to normal again.
Raven gasped, throwing her hair back.
"See?!" Beast Boy said, grasping her hands. "I told you! You're amazing!"
Raven rolled her eyes, but she couldn't keep the smile off her face.
"Care to dance some more?"
Raven's mouth felt dry. "W-With you?"
Beast Boy nodded. "Why not?" He started dancing, stepping from side to side as he shimmied and gyrated. Raven followed in tow, holding his hand upright; now that she had danced, she felt more comfortable with it. Especially with him.
Out of the corner of her eye, Raven saw the way Robin and Starfire were now dancing; it resembled slow dancing at first-her arms around his neck, his around her waist, and their bodies moved perfectly in sync-but then Starfire turned around and began dancing...on Robin. Her arm was now around the back of his neck, her butt sliding and grinding into his groin. His hands were on her hips, and often running down her stomach. They both had smiles on their faces, and occasionally kissed each other.
Starfire caught Raven's eye and winked.
Raven gulped. She felt afraid to turn around.
But on the other hand...
"Beast Boy, I want to...try something," she said in his ear.
Beast Boy's eyes shined with curiosity. "Really? What?"
Raven bit her lip; she never danced like this before. Standing in the middle of the floor wasn't the best idea. She grabbed his hand and made their way towards the back, were the lights were a little dimmer, and away from the majority of the Titans.
She positioned Beast Boy in front of her before she turned around.
"Ooooohhh!" Beast Boy said, now getting it. He knew she was nervous, and he felt her jump a little when he put his hands on her hips from behind. He said in her ear, "I'm kinda new to this too, so let's start off slow."
"Good idea," Raven agreed. She started swaying her hips like Starfire had showed her, starting off shyly, but slowly getting into the rhythm. Beast Boy focused on the beat of the music and the movement of Raven's hips.
As the song progressed, the space between the lower halves of their bodies closed-up until her butt barely grazed against his groin. Raven was completely fine with this; she wasn't ready for her butt to be rubbing all up against his crotch just yet. That would already give Cyborg ideas.
Beast Boy was glad that she was starting to unravel, and that she was trying things that she'd never do on a normal day. Raven turned around, causing Beast Boy to pull her close abruptly by her actions. The two laughed, and Beast Boy pecked her lips.
"I must say...you're not too shabby," Raven said, lacing their fingers together; now they were doing some salsa-like dance that was a little goofy.
"You're not so bad yourself," Beast Boy said, twirling her around and bringing her back to him. His ears perked up at her adorable giggle. "You know...this is starting to be the highlight of my night."
"What is?"
The music changed, turning into a slow song.
"Alriiiiight," said Cyborg into the microphone at the DJ table.
"Everyone grab a partner. We're gonna slooooow things dooown," said Bumblebee.
Beast Boy pulled Raven even closer, and her eyes drooped a little.
"Us dancing together," he said with a toothy grin.
"Mmm," Raven said. A smile played along the corners of her mouth. "I...guess I have to agree with you on that."
"Sweet." He twirled her around again. As soon as she was close enough to his face, her eyes narrowed at him. "What?"
"I didn't like you dancing with Terra though," she said.
"We weren't even touching!" Beast Boy protested.
"Still. I just...got jealous because..." Raven looked down at their feet. "It was her and not me." She cut Beast Boy off when he opened his mouth again. "And yeah, I know, if I had been out there with you in the beginning..."
"That wasn't what I was going to say, Rae..."
"Then what were you going to say, Gar?"
Beast Boy gulped. She nearly said his whole name. His whole real name. He could tell that she was annoyed now.
"No matter how many girls I dance with, none of them will ever compare to you. Okay? None. And the only girls I've danced with were Terra and Starfire. You're not angry with me for dancing with Starfire, are you?"
Raven was quiet. "...That's different. You never had anything with her and..."
Beast Boy chuckled, and Raven blushed in embarrassment.
"You're so cute when you're jealous."
Raven made a face. "Glad I amuse you."
"How do you think I felt when you used to emo-flirt with Goth Boy?"
Raven blushed again. "...That's different too."
"Uh huh."
"What? I haven't seen him in...two years I think?"
Beast Boy shook his head, his lips pursed.
The two stayed quiet as they continued to sway; Raven buried her face in his shoulder. She sighed in contentment as she felt his hands trail up and down her upper back in curiosity.
"What's wrong?" he asked her.
"Nothing," Raven sighed.
"You sure?"
"Mhmm. Why do you think that something is wrong?"
Beast Boy shook his head, his lips brushing against her hair. "Nothing. Nothing."
"So, Bee," Cyborg was saying; the two were sashaying from side to side, almost in a goofy manner, their cheeks pressed together and faced towards the crowd; their fingers were laced and arms were in the appropriate places for the time being.
"So, Sparky," Bumblebee responded.
"I've been thinkin'," he continued, pulling away to look at her.
"'Bout what?"
"I've wanted to ask you this for a while, actually," Cyborg said. "Ya know, we've known each other for a while and...-"
"Is this turning into one of those 'I like you, wanna be my girl?' speeches?" Bumblebee guessed.
Cyborg's eyes popped wide. "How'd you know?"
"Do you think I know nothing? Haven't I told you who I live with?" Bumblebee said with a short giggle. She breathed in through her nose, then exhaled, "Yes."
Cyborg smiled. "Yes?"
"Yes."
"Yes?"
"Yes."
Cyborg looked smug. "Well alriiiiight."
Bumblebee rolled her eyes and they continued to sway, but she couldn't keep the smile off her face either.
TT
After many more dances and drinks, Robin, Starfire, Cyborg, Beast Boy, and Raven were ready to go for the night. They said their goodbyes (which took a good thirty minutes) before they could finally leave and head outside to the T-Ship.
"What time is it?" Beast Boy yawned.
"Like..." Cyborg yawned too, checking the watch in his arm after finally taking off his holograph rings. "2:37...in the morning." He groaned. Don't feel like drivin'...might as well put the T-Ship on autopilot...
Robin turned around to see a floating Starfire and Raven carrying Terra.
"Uh...Terra?" he said.
"Can't feel...my legs," Terra giggled breathlessly. Starfire helped Terra into her compartment, then went to go join Robin in his.
Raven sighed in exhaustion, sliding into her own compartment; as she got comfortable, slumping down, she figured that maybe a good nap was in order...
Her compartment door swung upwards, and she opened her eyes.
"Can I help you?" she asked Beast Boy as he slid in, closing the door behind him. Now she felt squished.
"Figured I'd crash here," he said, wrapping his arms around her, and he snuggled his head in her shoulder.
"I might be able to like that...if I was able to breathe."
Beast Boy pouted before he got an idea. "Okay." He then morphed into a little puppy, climbing into her lap. He looked up at her face, licking her hand.
Raven sighed again. "I guess...that would be better." She stroked his fur, and he snuggled his head into her more, closing his eyes. She yawned, resting her head against her seat.
This was a long night...but it was worth it.
And just when Raven got comfortable, she was hit with a strong wave of emotions.
"'AYE, YOU TWO! I CAN'T SLEEP WITH YA'LL GETTIN' FRISKY IN THE FRONT!"
"...Sorry, Cyborg."
"Sorry, friend!"
Raven rolled her eyes, and she felt herself go under in peace.
