Chapter Text
It all started out the with a girls day out.
Raven had been dragged from store to store in search of the perfect outfit to wear to the Titan's annual holiday. Starfire had insisted on 'girl time' and Raven didn't have the heart to turn down the Tameranian girl down once more so she had begrudgingly come along.
She'd never expected for straps of fabric masquerading as suits to be thrust in her direction while a bubbling mass of joy insisted she try them on. Raven had refused, at first, she had her bathing suit, it was near identical to her uniform and she was comfortable in it, why change that?
'Please, friend Raven? I am sure you will look very delightful!"
She had sighed as Starfire held her own pink and green suits to try and picked out a few of the darker ones trudging to the stores changing room with a frown letting the other girl know just how much she didn't wish to do this.
The first suit was a dark purple, she had liked the colour but didn't sit right on her chest, too many criss crossing lines. After showing it to Starfire (who was in a light green, frilly ensemble) and having it confirmed that it didn't suit her she moved back to change. A few more were shot down, Starfire had settled on A Green and flower print bikini a few goes back but she was refusing to let them leave until they found one for Raven.
The final piece was a dark blue simple and easy to tie about her neck, she had to juggle to put her breasts in and worried it wouldnt hold them, the small thin fabric gave the illusion that they were going to fall out at any moment but seemed to be holding. She flushed a little looking down at herself and refused to meet the mirror instead stepping out and doing the demanded twirl only to startle when Starfire squealed, clapping her hands and proclaimed that outfit to be 'the one'.
She had hesitantly agreed to buy it when Starfire ensured her she looked 'beautiful, friend Raven!' and that she simply must wear it to the beach think of all the sun she could soak up! She had rolled her eyes a little, only the alien girl knew that Raven enjoyed the warmth of sun on her skin, the other Titans assumed that her gloomy exterior meant she preferred darkness but really the sun made her far more relaxed and calmed rampant emotions helping her to meditate and settle.
They had walked out of the shops with Starfire's arm looped through Raven's as the Tameranian gushed about looking forward too their beach time.
Now that they were here she wasn't entirely sure this had been a good purchase. She sighs as the adjusts herself in the mirror, the bikini just barely covers her modesty, clinging to her like a second skin The blue fabric barely holds her breasts and the ties at her hips have been knotted three times just to be sure. She groans softly bringing her palm up to her forehead. She knew she should have just packed her other bathing suit.
Still though, she can't just hide in the changing room forever so with a light blush dusting her cheeks that she struggles to keep in check she pushes open the door and steps outside.
Starfire is already out on the sand with the boys dressed in her flower print bikini and Raven will admit that the high blush on Robin's cheeks as he pointedly avoids looking at anything but the aliens face is rather amusing.
She finds herself relaxing a little until Starfire turns and grins at her, spinning about in the air and babbling that she looks delightful and that she just knew the outfit was perfect for Raven. Then suddenly there are three more pairs of eyes on her and she can't fight the blush, stiffening under their scrutiny. Cyborg feels like warmth and he grins at her joking that it's nice to see her out of her robe for a change. Robin just nods in agreement before his eyes slide back to Starfire and that smitten soft feeling comes back.
Then she feels it, it washes over her, hot and burning feeling like the crackle of fire starting in her stomach, clenching her body up and making her cheeks heat. She glances up through her lashes to the source of the feeling to see Beast boy staring openly at her, mouth slack and eyes dark.
She startles a little, surprised by the slick heat of her body in response. She'd never thought of Garfield like - like that. He'd always been young in her eyes, childish almost. But she had to admit, lately he'd grown up, taunting her less and settling for polite almost warm conversation though the friendly jokes remained, he'd even joined her in meditating a few times, that had surprised her at first but she had come to welcome it.
She looks now though, drags her eyes over the slope of his shoulders and the smooth plans of his chest down to his abs and yes, she can admit, he filled out well looking less awkward and gangly and more, well, more. She let out a soft breath tampering down her emotions trying to fight of the heat rising under her skin crackling through her veins but it was near impossible, he just felt so much.
"Uh, Raven?"
"Friend?"
She was wrenched out of her thoughts at the sound of her team mates voices, glancing about to see that the beach furniture and some sand had begun floating lit up by her powers.
She clears her throat, refusing to meat Garfield's eyes as the things settle her emotions reigned back in though that crackle of heat never leaves her stomach, she knows it's not her emotions but it sits at the back of her mind even as Beast boy turns into a Gorilla and grabs Cyborg racing and hurling him into the water breaking the tension. For that she's grateful.
She get's one more curious look from Robin and Starfire before they chase after the others, whooping and laughing leaving her to breath out a shakey breath and make her way to a shaded recliner.
She had much to think upon.
---------
After lazing in the warmth of the sun for a few hours, watching her friends splash and play in the water Raven had come to the conclusion that she liked the way Garfield made her feel. Did she wish to feel it again? Yes and she was going to if she had her way. She's not sure she'd label it as love, it was far too soon for that but it was something, simmering in her chest and she felt herself blush as she glanced up and watched green skin move, strong muscles pushing through water. Well, she wanted him that was for sure, now that she had the idea in her head she couldn't shake it.
She froze when green eyes met hers, and beast boy pushed upright, making his way out of the water and towards her. Her heart fluttered in her chest, appreciatively dragging her eyes down him, licking her lips as the water gathered on his skin and his swim trunk clung to him obscenely.
Azar help her when did he become so very good looking? And more importantly how had it taken his emotions for her to notice.
There was a gentle feeling coming from him as he stepped up, goofy grin on his face flashing his fangs at her and she felt the answering smile pull at her lips before she gave it permission.
"Hey, Rae! Come get in the water with us! It's nice and waaaaarm."
She huffed a little shifting in her seat when lust murmured a low plan into her mind. She would have him, she just had to make it happen.
"Alright but will you help me with something first?"
Garfield lit up at her agreement, rocking on his feet arms at his side as he nodded enthusiastically.
"Sure! Anything!"
"Help me apply some sunscreen?"
She watched carefully for his reaction, pleased when that heat simmered in her belly again practically radiating from him as green eyes flicked to the bottle beside her, over her body and back red tinge touching green skin as he processed what she said.
He glanced back at the other Titan's and she watched him swallow. They were too caught up in their time in the water to be worried about them and she turned her head back to Beast Boy who cleared his throat and reached for the bottle.
"Uh w-where do I start?"
She grinned a little to herself as she turned her back and moved her hair to the side. She held her breath as she felt Garfield settle behind her. The crackling fire feeling was back, coiling in her stomach but this time it was tinged with something like nervousness? it was a bitter bite to the sweet heat of the lust and she forced herself to relax leaning back slight as large hands settled on her shoulders, smearing cream along her skin.
She moaned softly at the coolness of the liquid and bit her lip when beast boy bit of a sharp 'holy fuck' behind her, hands shaking as they dragged down her back, working the suncream into her skin. it was almost sweet how easily affected he was, just from being allowed to touch her.
She was quiet as he worked, enjoying the feeling of his hands on her. They dipped down her spine and around her hips and she shivered at the feeling, almost possessive as they squeezed there. He took longer then was needed to rub the cream into her skin but she certainly wasn't complaining, arching her back as he went near the top of her ass. She could feel the delight when he let out a stifled moan behind her, feeding of the lust coming from him in waves, it made her wet, body tightening in anticipation.
She shivered when Beast boy breathed in deep behind her, flicking her tongue out to wet her lower lip, he was scenting her sniffing along her neck breathing out against her skin leaving her flushed and hot.
She turned around slowly, holding out her hand palm up watching as he poured some sunscreen onto her hand, holding dark green eyes as she smeared it across her chest, dragging her fingers over her skin, over the swell of her breast before the fabric stopped her, then down to her stomach.
Shifting she settled so the her legs were outstretched and he glanced down, applying more cream to his hands before dragging them up one leg, tantalizingly slowly, her breath caught when he reached her upper thigh and up, fingertips brushing the fabric covering her cunt before diving away. He moved so that she could turn her body, presenting her other leg towards him shivering when his hands returned to her skin.
When he was finally done he settled back, breathing in short puffs and there was a noticeable tent in his shorts. The outline of his cock staining against the fabric.
She stared at it, hands itching to reach out and touch but the little spell around them was broken when Starfire called out to them asking if they would be joining her in the water. Garfield startled, flushing high in his cheeks and shifting yelling that he was just popping to the bathroom before hurrying away.
She felt a smile gracing her face as she stood and made her way to the water, ignoring her team mates questioning glances.
This was going to be more fun then she imagined.
