I don't own the Teen Titans. I'm very upset with this fact.

Raven flew across the bay, wind whipping through her violet hair. And for the second time that night she was thankful for the sweater. "

This is it," she thought sighing as she alighted gracefully on the pier.

Looking around her at all the couples laughing, talking, being sickeningly in love. She had to admit that it was tiring, at times always being the single titan.

Always.

All the rest of the female titans had boyfriends who were also titans. On girl's night that was most of what they talked about. It only started bothered her when they tried to talk her into dating someone. She would just roll her eyes and to back to reading her book. The thing about dating another hero, she pondered, was that heroes made terrible boyfriends. I doubt even Robin would chose Starfire over the mission, she thought.

She was so deeply buried in her thoughts she didn't notice someone come right up to where she was sitting. A hand lightly reached out, tapping her gently on the shoulder. She turned, frowning, to see who would dare bother her. The white skull of Red X's mask glared back at her.

"Hey Sunshine," he spoke sitting down right beside her.

Right beside her.

Like almost touching her hip.

Leaning over even closer to her, almost whispering "I wasn't sure if you were going to come," he paused, his voice dropping even lower,

"But I'm very glad you did."

She breathed in quickly, trying to calm her wild emotions.

"Where is my book?" she said icily.

He chuckled.

"Very business Sunshine. But I'm not just going to give it to you."

She could hardly believe her ears! To come all this way, lie to her friends, and risk her reputation to get her book back just to have some arrogant jerk not give it to her!

"You're going to give it back, this instant, or be buried 10 feet under," she hissed angrily.

He laughed again. "And stop laughing!"

"Now Sunshine," his tone suddenly serious, "You know I can't just give you the book back. That would be boring."

"Of course," she spat, "I should have known you'd pull something like this." She stood, walking off to go back to the tower.

"Rae wait!" he shouted, running after her. Catching up to her he pulled her around to face him.

"What now?" she snapped.

"Okay, I'll give you back your book," he paused, "On one condition."

She sighed wearily. "What is it?" she spoke, crossing her arms.

He smirked, leaning toward her, whispering huskily in her ear. "Just spend the rest of this fine evening with me."

"And you'll give me my book back?" she asked, suspicious.

"Thief's honor," he drawled, placing one hand over his heart. "So you're placing your honor in something, by definition, has no honor?" she said, arching a eyebrow in astoudment.

"It's all I got," he said, grinning. She glared at him.

"Fine. But you better give my book back or," she spoke, leaning toward him, voice dropping to a whisper, "I will not hesitate to destroy you."

He stood there, shocked that she had actually agreed to it. While he stood there, gapping, she looked at him expectantly.

"Well?" "Oh yeah Sunshine," he replied grinning,

"This is going to be fun."

So this chapter is pitfuly short, so sorry about that, it's just how it worked out. But don't worry, the next one is going to be super long! And it's going to have lots of RaeX fluff! So as always please review! I love hearing what you guys think, and your reviews always make me rediculously happy!
