I own nothing
Chapter 4
The titans began to go into the tower exhausted from cleaning the dining room. They all plopped down onto the now crowded couch. Beastboy and Raven assumed their usual spot with Starfire and Robin to their right. Cyborg sat down on their left with BumbleBee sitting on his lap. Mas Y Menos, Speedy and Aqualad all sat down on the floor in front of them. Raven was glaring holes in the back of his head. She always knew Aqualad was flirtatious but the fact that he was trying to get an inside scoop on Beastboy and hers new relationship really bothered her. She never really had anything that she loved more than life itself. She loved her friends and her mother but as far as she was concerned Beastboy was above all of that. She wouldn't allow anything to jeopardize that.
Beastboy let a yawn from the couch and stretched.
"What time is it?"
"It is twelve, two dots, four, and a five." The titans east all snapped their neck at Starfire's bizarre answer.
"That means 12:45." Robin chuckled. Everyone smiled at Starfire's answer but Speedy spoke out.
"Does anyone wanna go out to a bar quick?"
"Si." Mas y Menos quickly blurted out.
"Yeah I'll go." Robin added. Starfire shook her head denying the request. Cyborg and BumbleBee both respectively declined. Beastboy also said no because although he didn't want to admit it because of his party animal reputation, he was quiet tired.
"Nah I'm good man." Raven shrugged her shoulders.
"Babe can I go?" Beastboy nodded his head.
"Yeah of course."
"I suppose I'll go too." Aqualad commented. Beastboy gave a head nod to Robin and he returned the nod. Both of them had an understanding too look out for each other's girls. They would of done it anyway but with the given circumstances Robin knew too keep a close eye on them.
"Speedy you ready?" Robin asked standing up. Speedy nodded and stood up and he, Aqualad and Mas y Menos followed Robin too the door. Raven stood up and Beastboy stood up next to her give a kiss on the cheek. He gave her a hug and gave her a quick whisper.
"Be careful tonight baby I love you." Raven gave him a return kiss and they separated.
"I love you babe and don't worry." Beastboy smiled and gave her another hug before she walked out. She followed the rest of the group out of the common room. Beastboy, Cyborg, BumbleeBee and Starfire all remained on the couch. Cyborg nudged Beastboy on the elbow.
"You wanna play Xbox?" Cyborg figured he'd try and distract Beastboy as he was visibly nervous about letting Raven go to the bar without him.
"Yeah I'll play." He blurted out. Cyborg sensing jumpiness quickly consoled him.
"Dude relax, she can handle herself and plus Robin is there." Beastboy exhaled.
"Yeah your right. Now do you want this work or not?" Cyborg smiled.
"You're not ready." They both darted to the Xbox ready to play.
The cab rolled up to the bar quietly and everyone slowly began to fade out of it. They looked up at the large neon sign that illuminated "Swifty's" and began to walk in. The bar was relatively quiet and a handful of patrons. Raven sat down at the end of the bar and Robin immediately went and grabbed the seat next to her. Speedy stood next to Raven at the end of the bar while Mas, Menos and Aqualad all sat down next to Robin in that order. The bartender came up and seemed less than interested too be taking their order.
"How can I help you?" she said groaningly. Mas y Menos unaware of her sarcasm blurted out their order in unison.
"Tequila por favor." She rolled her eyes and nodded towards Aqualad.
"How about you gorgeous." Aqualad flashed her a smile and leaned forward on the bar.
"I'll just have a water please." She scribbled down the order and turned to Robin.
"You?"
"Bud Light please." She then made eye contact with Raven and they instantly began to eye each other. Almost like they were sizing up but not for a fight, for who had the more sarcastic tone.
"and you sunshine." Raven glared at her.
"Wine if it doesn't kill you." The bartender sent her a sarcastic smile.
"It might." Raven returned her sarcasm.
"What a shame if it didn't." The bartender rolled her eyes again and made it to Speedy.
"How about you red."
"I'll have a draft and 7." The bartender jerked her head up at him.
"7?" Speedy smiled menacingly.
"7 of your digits." The waitress scoffed at him and walked to go make the drinks. Raven shot a glare at Speedy to make him feel embarrassed but it was no use. If there was anybody that was more than sure of himself it was Speedy. The bartender returned with their drinks and began to distribute them to each person. They all grabbed their glasses and Robin motioned for them to raise their glasses up for a toast.
"To the titans." He said softly and they all touched glasses softly. Mas y Menos quickly downed their shots and yelled out to the bartender.
"Aqui, Aqui." Raven and Robin slowly began to sip their drinks. Speedy also took a sip of his beer and spun his glass on the bar surface.
"So how's you and Beastboy going Raven?" Raven smiled at the question.
"It's going good thank you." Speedy smiled at her happiness from the question.
"Good I'm happy for you guys, which more I can say for some people." He then motioned his head to Aqualad, who was up at another table talking to a group of girls.
"Yeah I heard he wasn't happy about us." Speedy nodded.
"It doesn't matter as long as you two are happy who gives a fuck." Raven nodded. Speedy chugged the rest of his beer and slid the glass back onto the surface.
"Now excuse me I see some tight jeans that need to be loosened." Robin and Raven both rolled their eyes as he slide his feet across the floor to the group of girls that Aqualad was talking too. Raven and Robin both turned back to the bar and kept sipping their drinks.
"Hey Raven." Raven turned around after hearing an unfamiliar voice. Standing in front of her and Robin was a short, thick, blonde haired girl holding a notebook. She seemed a little nervous and her legs were shaking a bit. Raven looked her up and down with suspicion.
"Um do I know you?" The girl shuttered a little bit at hearing Raven's voice and clutched her notebook as if it was the only thing that could keep her standing.
"I-I don't think so but my boyfriend and I heard you speak at the underground café a month ago and we were wondering if we could just have you sign our poetry notebooks?" Raven was startled at the question. She was flattered that someone would approach her because out of all the titans she was by far the least approachable. She actually became a little excited by the fact that two fans had the guts to come up to her.
"Yeah I would love too." The girl giggled and then turned around and motioned for her boyfriend to come over to talk them. A tall, slender man walked up to him with a mop of blonde hair over his head. He smiled gently at Raven and Robin and slowly extended his hand.
"Hi guys I'm big fans." Robin and Raven both smiled at his admiration for them.
"Can I buy you guy's a drink?" Robin asked the young couple. They both nodded respectfully and Robin motioned for the bartender to come back over to them.
"Can I just get a round of Coors Light please?" The bartender nodded and began to fix the drinks. The boyfriend began to address Raven.
"So Raven I heard you at the underground café a couple weeks ago it was incredible." Raven blushed.
"Thank you I appreciate that." She wasn't used to getting complimenting about her work and she found it very appealing.
"Don't worry about it we both love your work and we are so happy that you and Beastboy are together." Robin smiled knowing that Raven was enjoying the love she was getting and the four of them each made a toast to the night.
They continued on with their conversations and were exchanging stories together. Aqualad was watching from a distance and nudged Speedy, who was doing some flirting of his own.
"Yeah?" Aqualad motioned his neck over to Robin and Raven.
"Those two look like their having quite the time flirting with those two." Speedy shot his friend a glare.
"Dude are you kidding me?" Aqualad grinned knowing that Speedy had called him out.
"What now I can start a little trouble." He snickered. Speedy rolled his eyes knowing that his friend was up to no good but he had no idea the line he was going to cross.
