Raven POV

I left the note in Beastboy's room after he fell asleep. I felt like a stalker but I stayed outside of his door basically all night. At 7 in the morning I finally went back into my room. I could finally stop being miserable all the time and focus on another goal in life. I was fantasizing about Beastboy's reaction to the note when he came into my room. “Hey,” he said with a smile. I rolled my eyes and walked over and kissed him. He kissed me back and pulled me into his arms. I really wasn't used to this since I never really had a boyfriend before. However, it was something that I was more than willing to get used to. I stayed in Beastboy's arms until Robin and Starfire came into my room and saw us. “Friend Raven and Beastboy, is it true that you two are like me and Robin now?” Starfire asked with a huge grin on her face. Beastboy and I both nodded and got off of my bed to go into the kitchen for breakfast. I sat next to Beastboy and sipped on my tea quietly. Starfire chatted away at how Beastboy and I looked great together. Robin just held her hand and smiled. I wasn't used to being in the center of attention and it was starting to get really annoying.

Robin POV

I really couldn't believe that Raven and Beastboy were going out. They looked

great together but it really wasn't a couple that I anticipated. At breakfast I kept looking at them. They looked almost as perfect as Starfire and I. Cyborg skipped breakfast, so after breakfast Starfire skipped into his room to tell him the news. I wasn't far behind her and I was honestly curious to see his reaction. Cyborg always had the weirdest reaction to different kinds of news. It would be pretty interesting to see his reaction to this. “Friend Cyborg, Beastboy and Raven are now dating,” Starfire said quickly with a smile. It was the kind of smile that made me want to kiss her right there, and that’s exactly what I did. She kissed me back and I almost forgot where I was until I heard Cyborgs sudden throat clearing. I ended the kiss unwillingly and looked at Cyborgs face. He had a look of amusement on his face. He started to laugh and buried his face into his pillow to muffle some of his laughter. “I guess that I should’ve known that those two were going to go out soon enough,” he said with another round of laughter. Starfire and I laughed along quietly. Cyborg hopped out of bed and went into the living room to play a video game. Beastboy joined him and Raven sat beside Beastboy. It was kinda funny because Beastboy had one arm around Raven and still won the game. I wasn't really paying much attention to their game though because all of my focus was on Starfire. She was the perfect distraction for me. After an hour, I went outside to practice some of my martial arts. Starfire followed me and sat down against the tree to watch. With Starfire watching, I was actually doing better than usual and I was able to take a break early. I spent most of the break kissing Starfire and drinking water. Fifteen minutes later I was back to practicing martial arts. Raven, Beastboy and Cyborg came out to watch and when I was finally finished, Starfire and Raven began to practice their attacks. Beastboy, Cyborg, and I were watching. They were doing good and Starfire improved her Starbolt attacks. It was hard for me not to walk over and kiss her.

Starfire POV

After Robin finished praticing his martial arts, I got up to practice my Starbolt attacks. I had spent weeks thinking of ways to improve them and it was paying off. The damage was pretty bad when I finished. As soon as I finished practicing, I ran into Robin's open arms. I kissed him and he kissed me back. Both of us were unwilling to stop but we had to. After that we just sat on the ground and watched the others practice. I giggled when Raven and Beastboy had to practice. They combined their attacks and were doing really amazing. It was better than Robin and I. I was holding hands with Robin and was having a hard time concentrating. It was always hard for me to focus on something outside of Robin. Sometimes I even forgot to breathe around him. All of the sudden I began to get sad. What if there was another girl that Robin would love more than me? What if I wasn't his true love?? It was the thought of losing Robin that caused me to cry. I felt the first few tears slide down my cheeks, and I was automatically in Robin's arms. “Star, are you okay?” he asked in a panicked whisper. I couldn't really speak or move so I just cried. “Keep practicing,” he ordered as he carried me into the house. He carried me into his room and collapsed on his bed with me in his arms. “Star, its alright,” he said as I buried my head into his chest. After a few minutes my tears slowed down. “Why are you crying?” he asked gently. “I was thinking about you, and how much I loved you and then a thought occurred to me that there may be somebody out there whom you love more, and that would mean that you would leave me and it made me cry, and I couldn't stop,” I attempted to explain. A look of shock flashed across his face. “Starfire, I could never love anyone more than I love you,” he said. With that, he leaned down and kissed me and I desperately kissed him back. I then realized that I was being silly and wiped away all of my tears. “Do you think that we should go back?” I asked. “No,” he replied as he kissed me again. Kissing Robin was almost like breathing. It felt so natural and it kept me sane.

Beastboy POV

I was curious as to why Starfire was crying, but I didn't dare walk into the T tower to find out. Besides, Robin told me to practice and that was exactly what I was going to do. Raven and I got to practice together and it was quite a challenge to focus with her next to me. It was like trying to do homework on a roller coaster. Robin and Starfire were gone for a while and I actually considered checking on them. I just didn't want to walk in on them making out or anything. I mean, how awkward would that be? I just practiced changing from animal to animal, attacking with the animal, and speed. In fighting, speed was everything. If you weren't fast, it didn't even matter how good a fighter you were. I had to learn that the hard way when I first started fighting with the titans. I still had a few of the scars. But they weren't really noticeable so it didn't matter. After practicing, Raven and I sat down on the ground. I pulled her into my arms and kissed her. Cyborg just kinda looked away. “I love you,” I whispered into her ear. “I love you too,” she whispered back. When she whispered it made my skin crawl. It was comforting, yet dark, yet alluring at the same time. I liked it.

Cyborg POV

I was in an awkward situation. Robin and Starfire left, and Beastboy and Raven were kissing no more than two feet away from me. I tried to look away, but it didn't really help much. I wished that I could fall in love so that I wouldn't be like the odd-man out. I mean every one of the titans was paired up except for me. It made me sort of jealous. After a few minutes, I started to practice my attacks. It kept me occupied so that I didn't have to watch Beastboy and Raven make out. I mean I was already tired of all the kissing in the T tower. I was like PDA people, PDA. At the same time I was sort of happy for the couples because both of them were inseparable. I was happy, jealous, sad, angry, hopeful, doubtful, and joyful at the same time. Wow emotions were weird.
