Mid afternoon. Sun shining, Titans outside, playing their games and having 'fun'. All except one. Raven, to be exact.
The empath sat in the common room on the circular couch, a thick, thousand word book in her hands, legs crossed and violet eyes glued to the infinite letters sprawled across page 743. This was what she called real 'fun'.
Sadly, Ravens fun was rudely interrupted by a certain green, vegetarian nuisance. He came striding from behind, whistling a chirpy tune, and jumped over the back of the couch with a plonk. Raven kept her eyes firmly glued to a sentence which she had read twice now, as Beast Boy shifted in his seat and propped his elbows on his knee with his chin in hand.
"What'cha doin'?" he asked with a smirk, pleased with the exasperated look he had caused to form onto Ravens expressionless face.
"Reading. Maybe you should try it sometime." Ravens cold, but expected answer could easily be translated to; Go away.
"Ouch."
Beast Boy didn't go. He only let his smirk grow.
"What are you doing here anyway? shouldn't you be with Cyborg or be annoying Robin?" Raven said curtly after realising she just read the same sentence for the fourth time.
"Nah," Beast Boy replied with his nose scrunched up in disgust, "I thought I'd spend some time with you!"
"Oh joy- hey!"
Beast Boy had gently swatted the book away (Because he knew how angry Raven would get if he had damaged it) and rested his head onto her lap.
"Do you not understand the fact that I was preoccupied?!" snapped Raven, her teeth bared and eyes narrow. Beast Boy continued to smirk.
"I do. I just don't care."
Ravens sigh was one of frustration and defeat.
"Beast Boy," she began calmly, "why must you be so… ugh! infuriating!" and then she wasn't so calm. She tried to shove the changeling off of her, but he was just too stubborn. "Oh c'mon Rae, you know you dig me!" Beast Boy teased in a miserable attempt to suppress his laughter. It would have been successful, if not for the obvious blush in Ravens grey cheeks.
"I do not. You're annoying and rude and-"
"Totally kissable?" Beast Boy joked.
There was silence. Then realisation.
"Huh," Beast Boy muttered, as if something suddenly clicked. "Nice."
Before Raven knew it, Beast Boy had cupped his hand around the nape of her neck and pulled her down, so that their lips met in a fiery kiss. Raven was taken too much by shock to react, even when Beast Boy broke away.
"You totally dig me." he stated smugly with his smirk, before pushing himself off Ravens lap and walking out of the room, leaving the empath to dawn on whatever had just happened alone.
She only smirked and continued on with her book.
