Chapter 13
It had been two weeks since the group had arrived back home. Raven had fully recovered from energy crisis and Beast boy was getting along well with Midnight. Every once in a while, Shadow would pop out of nowhere saying that she needed a breather from the life she was now leading. There had been a few cases of villains but nothing very big. It seemed that the Titans were finally getting a break that they needed desperately.
Raven laid in bed, staring at the ceiling and thinking about the last fight with alenar and knew that there would be others that tried to bring Trigon back. As long as Shadow kept her cool and the place where his mirrors laid hidden, things would be fine.
Speaking of Shadow, she had told her sister that she was allowed to visit the next day for her sisters birthday party.
"Though not for very long. I made an agreement, as long as I get ice cream, I'll be fine." she had said.
Raven smiled at the memory. She was turning 26 the next day and she had hoped, though she doubted it, that the others wouldn't make such a big deal of it.
Beast boy had said that he was bringing her some place special for the day. Away from children and other people so it could just be the two of them. Midnight had agreed to stay with Starfire only if she wasn't bombarded with hugs from her.
Raven laughed quietly to herself. Midnight was adapting to the Tower very easily. She had a bed in Raven's room but she often slept in the bed that Beast boy and Raven shared. Raven had been talking to Beast boy about putting Midnight in her room and herself staying in bb's room. needless to say, Midnight wasn't thrilled about the idea. She wanted to stay with her "daddy."
"Hey there, bed time already?"
Raven smiled as she looked to the door where Beast boy stood with Midnight in his arms.
"I'm tired, leave me alone." she said sleepily.
Beast boy smiled and set Midnight down. She ran off towards the lounge saying something about playing against "uncle Cyborg"
Raven smiled as Beast boy laid down next to her. "Just you and me." he said.
"For the moment." Raven responded.
He smiled and kissed her lips lightly before trailing kisses down her neck. "A moment is all I need, but, it's not all I want." he added with a smirk.
Raven smiled before snuggling up against him. "I really wish you would tell me where we're going tomorrow." she said sleepily.
"You'll see." he whispered, wrapping his arms around her tightly as she fell asleep. “You’ll see.”
~*~
“I really wish I could see where I was going.” Raven said as Beast boy led her blind folded on a rough surface.
“Don’t worry so much. I promise you’ll like it.” he responded, tightening his grip on her hand as they walked down a gentle slope.
“I’m sure I’ll like it, I would just like to see where I’m going.”
Beast boy chuckled slightly and stopped. “Were here anyways.” he unwrapped the cloth that he had been using as a blindfold and let her get adjusted to the dimer lighting.
“Wow...” she breathed. Before her was a small picnic on the edge of a lake.
Beast boy smiled and wrapped his arms around her waist. “I knew you’d like it.” he kissed the back of her neck.
She smiled and leaned against him. “I love any time spent with you.”
He smiled and helped her sit down. Plopping down next to her, he made her up a plate of an assortment of her favorite foods and his own with the things that he liked without meat.
They ate and talked quietly as the sun went down and splashed brilliant colors on the water before them. When they had finished, Beast boy wrapped his arms around Raven’s waist and held her close to his body.
“When do you want to go?” he asked, kissing her neck.
“In a little while. I’m giving Shadow some time away.” she smiled slightly. “She agreed not to return until she had some ice cream so, if she doesn’t have any soon, she can’t leave.”
Beast boy laughed and kissed her again. “I’m sure she’ll be very grateful.”
Raven smiled and cuddled close to him. “It’s beautiful.” she said as the colors changed from red to a purple as they sun fell even lower below the horizon.
“Not as beautiful as you.” beast boy said with a grin.
Raven rolled her eyes. “Your so...”
“Nice? Charming? Sexy?” he said, his smiled widening.
She sighed and shook her head. “All those and more.” she whispered before he kissed her deeply.
“Come on, we should be heading back.” he said, pulling her up gently. “The others will be waiting.” They walked back towards the tower hand in hand.
~*~
Beast boy opened the door to a dark tower and let Raven in ahead of him. She smiled, knowing what was to come.
“SURPRISE!”
Her smile widened as her friends popped out from their hiding spots. “Thanks guys.” She said.
Starfire wrapped her arms tightly around her best friend. “You are not mad are you?”
Raven shook her head. “Far from it.”
Shadow walked over and hugged her sister, while whispering in her ear. “Take all the time you want to get the ice cream out.” she said with a wink.
Raven’s smile widened. “Alright.”
“It is time for you to open your presents!” Starfire said, dragging Raven over to the couch and sitting her down.
“You guys didn’t have to get me anyt...” Raven started to say.
“Nonsense.” Robin cut her off. “Your our friend, of course were going to get you gifts.” Starfire handed Raven a small box wrapped in dark blue paper.
Raven unwrapped and opened the box to find a beautiful raven necklace with ruby eyes. “Wow, thanks a lot Star!” She hugged Starfire tightly. “You’re the best.”
After opening many more presents from her friends, they all crowded around the table to get ice cream and cake. She noticed how Shadow ate as slowly as she could.
“You know, your ice cream will melt if you don’t eat it.” Raven pointed out.
Shadow smiled. “Well, I’m not leaving until... well, I have to.” she glanced at Beast boy who blushed and looked away.
Raven raised an eyebrow and kept a close eye on Beast boy. He hardly touched any of his yogurt and kept glancing around nervously. She also noticed that Shadow kept shooting glances at him and he would just turn away and pretend that he didn’t notice her.
“What’s wrong?” Raven finally asked him in a low voice.
He shook his head and forced a smile. “Nothings wrong.”
“Don’t lie to me.” she said, setting down her plate and entwining her fingers in his.
Beast boy said nothing. He glanced at Shadow who nodded and picked up a video camera. Raven, who had not seen this, continued to stare at Beast boy, waiting for him to speak.
Taking a deep breath, he stood, still holding Ravens hand and faced her. “Raven.” he said quietly.
Raven knew something was going to happen, her stomach started turning as she waited for him to continue. She saw him glace backwards, presumably at Shadow, and closed his eyes before opening them again and kneeling on one knee in front of her.
Raven’s breath caught in her throat as he reached in her pocket and pulled out a small box.
“Raven.” he said again, his voice almost inaudible. He opened the box to reveal a silver ring set with a small, diamond shaped diamond with two smaller ones set on both sides of it. “Will you marry me?”
Raven sat, frozen in place. She couldn’t believe what she had just heard.
Beast boy felt his heart quicken as he waited for her reply. ‘She’s taking a long time.’ he thought worriedly.
Finally, she spoke. “Are you kidding?” Beast boy felt his heart drop. “Of course I will!”
He let out a breath he didn’t realize he was holding and slipped the ring on her finger before standing and wrapping his arms tightly around her. “I love you Raven.” he whispered before kissing her deeply.
Raven kissed him back with as much passion and she heard Midnights voice of “Ewww!”
They broke apart and joined everyone else in laughing. Midnight grinned and wrapped her arms around her mother’s leg. Raven smiled and picked her up. She squirmed and reached for beast boy who laughed and took her.
“What a daddy’s girl.” Raven said, tickling Midnight.
She wrapped her arms around her dads neck and buried her face in his shoulder.
“You little brat.” Raven teased.
Beast boy laughed. “Yea she is.”
Shadow grinned and came bouncing over to her sister. “So now we have a wedding to plan.” she said excitedly.
Raven nodded and was dragged by her hands towards her room by Starfire and Shadow. “Come on Terra, Jinx!” Shadow shouted. The two girls smiled and joined the group that disappeared down the hallway.
Cyborg placed a hand on Beast boy’s shoulder. “Congrats man.”
“Thanks. So... when are you and Jinx getting together?” he asked with a smirk on his face.
Cyborg blushed. “Uh, hehe... I think I’ll go... work on the... T-car, yeah the T-car!” he rushed off with Robin close at his heels.
“What’s wrong Robin?” he asked, following them, “scared of commitment?” They broke into a run and he chased after them. ‘Oh, I’m going to have fun with this.’ He thought.
