The Teen Titans haven't been owned by me, but one day... one day they might just be!
"Because yooooou are my truuuuue loooove!"
Raven pulled her pillow over her head tighter as Kori's voice rang out from the bathroom. The redhead seemed to be very fond of singing in the shower, and her song choice left much to be desired- as well as her singing voice.
The pale girl sighed into her mattress when she realized sleeping was no longer an option. She peeked out from under her sound barrier in search of her phone, which was on the nightstand between the beds. She hurriedly snatch it up and pulled it under the covers with her to check the time. Pressing the unlock button and squinting at the light, she was greeted by a peculiar sight- the new message icon.
Curious, she pressed it.
Hey Rae! You up?
It was from "Gar;)".
She rolled her eyes in exasperation, debating whether or not to respond. On one hand, it would only encourage him to pursue their friendship, but on the other hand, she had already told him they were friends. She sighed in defeat and quickly replied.
I am now.
Not even a minute later the screen lit back up. She smiled despite herself as she read it.
Did I wake you? Sorry :P
Why was this boy so nice? It was frustrating beyond belief. She set her head in her hand as she texted him back.
No - Kori did. Apparently our bathroom is a recording studio
Again, her phone lit up almost instantly.
Let me guess, it's either a British boyband or a childstar "finding herself"
Raven actually let a small giggle slip as she read his reply.
Pretty sure one of them is Irish
She had just pressed send when her covers were ripped off of her. She let out a small gasp of surprise and rolled onto her back, giving her pink-haired roommate a fierce glare. "What the hell?"
Jinx let out a curt laugh as she threw Raven's covers on the other side of the bed. "Sorry, Rae-Rae; I just got curious as to why you were giggling under there," she admitted with a smirk, before the pale girl's phone caught her attention. "Ooooh, who you texting?"
Raven rolled her eyes in annoyance as she sat up. "Nobody- I was just checking the time," she lied, her face turning a faint pink color.
Her roommate gave her a skeptical look. "Really?" she grinned, before crossing her arms over her chest. "Alright, what time is it?"
The dark-haired girl felt her face heat up even more. "Almost seven?" she guessed.
Jinx shook her head in amusement as she walked back over to her own bed. "It's about a quarter after seven," she laughed, plopping back down on her bed and pulling out her own phone. "Which means you have less than an hour to get all pretty for Gar."
Raven blushed even more at her roommates words. "Riiight, I forgot I have to impress my fake boyfriend," she replied sarcastically as she climbed out of bed and towards her bags.
The pink-haired girl shrugged indifferently. "Only if you want him to become your real boyfriend."
The pale girl paused momentarily, before shaking off her roommate's words. "Yeah, right," she deadpanned, gathering up an outfit for the day.
She timed it perfectly as Kori stepped out of the bathroom in her underwear with a towel wrapped around her head. "This is a morning of good, is it not?" she asked sweetly.
Raven attempted to hold back a snort at the lack of modesty her foreign roommate seemed to possess. "Fantastic," she muttered, maneuvering around her and into the bathroom for her own shower.
Garfield checked his phone for the eighth time after sending his last message, which jokingly accused his pale teammate of being a fan of Kori's music. He hoped she hadn't gotten offended, because he had barely managed to work up the nerve to text her.
He sighed to himself, glancing at the clock above the TV. It was nearly 7:30, and Ms. Mae had instructed all the students to be downstairs in the lobby by 8:00. He groaned in exasperation as he jumped up and quickly hopped in the shower.
Raven wiped away the fog on the bathroom mirror and studied her reflection. Her face was a little red from her shower, and she looked half-asleep without her makeup. She usually did her makeup in the other room, where the light in front of the mirror was a little less harsh, but she didn't want to deal with Jinx's teasing, so the florescent lighting in the bathroom would have to do.
She pulled out her foundation from her small makeup bag and applied a little to her cheeks, hoping to cover the redness and conceal the blushing she was bound to be doing later. With a dab of concealer under her eyes and a few swipes of mascara, she decided her makeup routine was finished. She pulled off her towel and combed through her wet hair before pulling it up into a messy ponytail, letting a few pieces in the front frame her face.
She then slipped on a plain, black tank top over her bra and stepped into a pair of faded grey jeggings. She rolled her eyes at the lack of color she was sporting, and quickly pulled on a maroon hoodie. With a distasteful glance at her chipped, black nails, she slumped out of the bathroom and right into her cheery roommate.
"Oomph!" the redhead mumbled, before smiling brilliantly at the dark-haired girl. "Oh, Raven! This color is most glorious on you!"
Raven smiled weakly, muttering a quick thanks as she glanced around the room for her shoes. Spotting her plain, black flats, she hurried over to them, ignoring the curious look the pink-haired girl was giving her.
Jinx let out a low whistle. "Well, I can't say you put in much effort, but Gar isn't too picky," she teased as she squeezed into her own skinny jeans, which was slightly surprising seeing as she was already a naturally thin girl.
"I don't care what Garfield thinks of me," the pale girl replied tiredly as she slipped on her shoes.
Her roommate huffed in amusement. "Whatever."
Raven rolled her eyes again as she followed Kori out the door, only to be greeted by the blonde slipping out of his own room.
He immediately gave her a smile, before his eyes focused on her hoodie. He then glanced at his own outfit and let out a small chuckle. "Wow, Rae! We're matching!" he teased, gesturing to his own maroon pullover.
Raven closed her eyes in frustration as Kori grabbed her and Garfield by the wrists and dragged them to the elevator, rambling excitedly about the upcoming day.
Garfield rolled his eyes fondly at his friend, before sneaking a peek at the dark-haired girl. She opened her eyes and looked back at him, giving him a small smile.
He happily returned it.
So I think Jinxiepoo is sensing something between our lovebirds! Maybe she'll elect Vic's help in setting these two up? Unless they've already started..!
And it seems Raveypoo is warming up to our little Gar! What will the rest of the day bring?
Anywhoo, review?
