Ch 15 Part 3
BB walked into the living room to see Cyborg using the big screen to talk with Bumblebee. He heard her agreeing to something her boyfriend was saying. Being the curious person that he was, BB came into view of the screen.
"Hey BB, what's up?" asked Bumblebee. "Cyborg says you and Raven are a couple."
"Yes, it's true. We're very happy," said BB.
"Now, who's delusional," said Cy.
"Hey, you can ask her yourself," said BB. "Anyway, what's going on with you Bumblebee?"
"Sparky invited me to his family's home tonight for dinner. I've met them before, but it will be nice to see them again," she smiled, "and they want to meet the rest of the Titans to."
"Oh great, you know I don't have any formal wear," said BB.
"Relax man it's casual," said Cy.
"Oh," he blushed, "then I'll be there to share hilarious stories of Cy as a Titan to his family."
"Gee thanks B," said Cy.
"No problem buddy," he said as he smiled.
"What's going on?" asked Robin as he and Starfire walked into the room.
"We're invited to Cyborg's house to meet the rest of his family," said BB.
"Oh this is most exciting and as an earthly tradition I must cook the dish to show overjoyed we are to meet friend Cyborg's family."
"Uh well Starfire I think we should let someone with more experience cooking earth food to cook," said Robin.
"Relax, I'm all over it Rob," said BB as he walked into the kitchen, the other Titans following him. He picked out one of the many vegetarian recipes hidden in one of the drawers. "I'll make a vegetarian casserole. It's my best dish."
"Anything vegetarian can't be good," said Cy. "It's impossible."
"Actually it's quite good. I tasted it one time," said Raven as she brought out a black trash bag with her powers.
"Um Raven, what's with the bag?" asked Robin.
"My room needed a little cleaning," said Raven as she opened a portal to the dump and dropped the bag off before closing it.
"When have you partaken in the eating of friend Beast boy's casserole?"
"I was sick that time we were called on one of our missions, and I found it in the fridge. It was the only thing that wasn't covered in blue goo," said Raven.
"See Cy my casserole saved her life."
"Yeah whatever B, it better be good," said Cy before he made his way to the living room, asking Robin if he wanted to play video games. Robin accepted as Starfire joined the boys on the couch.
BB started gathering ingredients, pots, and pans, and got to work. Raven looked up from her book every once in a while and noticed how focused he was on his cooking. It made Raven smile behind her book. Soon she could smell the delightful smells coming from the stove as she looked up once again to see the steam rising, and Beast boy taking pots and pans off from the stove, pouring them into a glass dish, wrapping it up, and sticking it into the fridge to cool down.
"Well that's done," said BB as he brought all the pots, pans, and cooking utensils to the sink to wash them.
"Need any help?" asked Raven as she floated over to him.
BB smiled. "I would love your help Rae. How about I wash and you dry?"
"Sounds good."
"You love to cook, don't you Garfield?"
"Not as much as I love you Raven," he said as he dried the last pot, putting it on the dry rack. He felt her her arms rest on his shoulders as she kissed him on the cheek and he couldn't resist but wrap his arms around her waist and hold her tight. He smiled. "You're trapped now Rae. There's no escape."
"Let her go lover boy we have to get going," said Cy as BB pouted, letting his half demon girlfriend go, grabbed the casserole, and headed to the T-car.
The car ride was quite which made BB nervous and as he looked to his best friend Cyborg, he could tell something was wrong. "Cyborg, are you ok?" he asked.
"Yeah B just nervous," said Cy.
"Why? Your family can't be that bad. I mean we've all ready met your parents. They're cool," said BB.
"Well my grandparents are kind of old fashioned and my cousins are kind of unpredictable."
"I promise to be on my best behavior if that's what you're worried about," said BB.
"That's actually not what I'm worried about B."
"Cyborg relax we can handle ourselves," said Robin. "We've been up against the worst of the worst. How bad can your extended family really be?"
