Chapter 4
Aye this do be kinda short but that's okay bc I'm sitting down and writing a crap ton of chapters in one sitting. You know, healthy stuff =D. Also ig kinda a warning there's mentions of sex at the end of the chapter but nothing bad i promise.
The next day Y/n's stress made its way through her body and seeped into her mind. What was she going to do? How could she keep loving someone who didn't understand it? She needed to get to the bottom of this.
Y/n leaned back into her chair, running her fingers through her hair. The evening sunset flowed into her room, the walls now painted in a deep pink and orange. She wished her relationship was as pretty as her bedroom walls at this moment. Y/n paused for a second and chuckled, the pleather chair back moving against the back of her own neck.
A memory began to mentally play. It was Damian and Y/n's first official date. A small Italian restaurant Alfred recommended. It was a small quiet place that played lovely classical music. Damian stumbled over his words as he saw Y/n in her outfit. Her shoes tapped against the floor as he pulled out her chair and tucked her into the table. They each ordered their favorite meal talking about whatever crossed their minds. They had known each other for so many years but the butterflies in their stomachs were oddly comforting. As if they were normal teenagers eating with their crush.
It was one of the only times she ever felt normal.

The rumbling of the Titans' Tower alerted everyone. It was Terra, again. Y/n dropped what she was doing and ran out of her room to the source, her fellow teammates. Everyone spilled into the blonde's room, they watched her with fear as she trembled in her sleep. Her fists grasping at the sheets and her body covered in sweat. Y/n cringed at the newest edition to the team.
Nightmares are a bitch.
"She's going to bring the building down," Robin shouted, he was the only one in uniform. He really doesn't take that thing off.
Raven came to the rescue by soothing Terra's head with a spell. Immediately Terra's eyes shot open and she pushed Raven to the side.
"You were shaking everything, Terra. We came to check on you," the mom of the group told her. Dick asked if she was alright.
"It was a freaking nightmare, just leave me alone." She rested her elbows on her knees. "I'm okay so get going. You heard me, get going."
It was hard for Y/n not to roll her eyes so instead she closed them and left the room, the rest of the team following in suit.
Damian stopped Raven, wanting her to tell him what she saw. He knew what it was like to have her look inside your mind. The half demon told him off by saying he wasn't the leader of the team so it wasn't his business. She walked off leaving the two behind.
In hopes of extending an olive branch, even though she didn't know why she needed to, Y/n rested her head on Damian's clade shoulder. He tensed but quickly relaxed and brought an arm over her shoulder. He wasn't a big fan of PDA, neither of them were.
"Wanna grab something to eat during patrol?"
"Sure."
The following morning things had calmed down. Damian put his grumpiness to the side and he and his girlfriend slept in the same bed, soaking up the peace the late night/early morning brought them. After last night's patrol a good night's rest was needed. But what was a healthy sleep schedule anyway?
Kori decided it was a good time to train, which is why she called a meeting outside of the Tower. And while most of the team would rather spend their weekend doing what they pleased, she was the leader and what she says goes. Though Y/n wondered if her plan to leave had anything to do with the extra training they were doing as the team already knew the H.I.V.E. mission would be her last. Maybe Star wanted to show she was still the boss even with them losing a member.
"'To be ready for anything, you must train for everything,'" Starfire started, staff in hand. She explained it was the most important lesson the warlords from her home planet taught her." Beast Boy grumbled and Blue Beetle scolded him. "And so it shall be instilled in you. Let's par off, those not fighting, watch and learn."
Nightwing stepped up and the two sparred after having a dorky interaction. It was over fairly quickly as Star found an opening and swooped his leg. She pointed the end of her staff at his neck which indicated his defeat. The team laughed and teased him.
"That was not a confidence booster," Nightwing muttered.
"You did very well, you lasted far longer this time," Starfire complimented. Cardinal snickered and turned her head to the side in an attempt to not be rude. Terra didn't bother to hide her laugh. "I mean in training of course, he is very proficient when we have se-" she was cut off by her boyfriend who shouted. Y/n had to hide her face into Robin's shoulder to stop her from snorting out loud.
The next two trainees were Raven and Beetle. Nightwing stepped back and stood beside his best friend. He was still flustered and pink in the face.
"Loser," she nudged Nightwing.
He scoffed and playfully pushed her back. "At least I'm getting some."
"And I'm not?" she glared at him with a smirk as she moved to see the fight from a different angle.
Dick's expression did a complete 180° as his eyes became saucers under his mask. He frantically turned around to stop his shorter friend from leaving but she was already beside Beat Boy. He turned back around to shake Damian for some information but he moved too.
"What did you tell Grayson?" Robin murmured into Cardinal's ear.
She furrowed her eyebrows, pretended to be in thought by frowning slightly, and shaking her head. "Nothing."
The fight lasted longer than the last but Beetle took the win when he blasted Raven to the ground. She was fine in the end so no one worried. The nest fight was between the green teen and Terra.
Beast Boy turned into a lion and ran towards his opponent, she made the ground beneath him lift him into the sky. Up there he turned into a large monkey and flipped down into a bear. Terra fell down and tumbled to the side before taking both of them into the air. Eventually, Beast Boy got the upper hand and transformed into a snake. He wrapped himself around Terra, asking for a kiss. But something went wrong.
Y/n could see the terror in Terra's eyes. She was having a panic attack, another thing Y/n was all too familiar with. Soon enough, Terra caused a sort of ground tornado and flung Garfield away. She formed a large wave made of sharp rocks and aimed them at the unconscious hero. Starfire shot a green energy beam at her feet, causing Terra to wake up from her delusion.
"What's going on?" She saw Beast Boy limping beside Nightwing. "I'm sorry, it's not my fault." The Titans tried to help, reassuring her what happened was an accident and they could help but all Terra did was refuse and storm away.
I am not going to miss that.
Cardinal turned around to find something to do in the tower. Robin followed but was stopped by Nightwing. The man glanced back to make sure the team wasn't within hearing range.
"Hey, so have you and Y/n... ya know?" He looked at Damian through the mask.
Robin crossed his arms. "Have we what?"
"You know," Nightwing nodded his head in a suggestive way.
"Have we had sex?" Damian finished bluntly. His adoptive brother nodded. Damian uncrossed his arms and turned around to hide the scarlet hues under his green mask. "I don't see how that's any of your concern." With that he walked off.
Don't worry they haven't, it was just to tease Nightwing. We aint there.
Yet.
