A/N- this is not a 'one-true love'/ 'lose-your-virginity' type of love story. This is a story of Raven exploring what satisfies her, and finding love in an understanding partner. It's a different twist, different type of story. I've been debating putting it up since it's not a normal fall in love/ date progression of relationship. But, I wanted to show a healthy relationship that isn't exactly traditional. But if you're on the M rated stories for sex, there will be tons of that.

Chapter 1

The sun was barely peeking through the curtains when Raven first woke up. Blinking several times, she finally started to become conscious of her surroundings. It had been a wild night. A very unexpected night, to say the least. The soft fabric of her sheets felt good on her bare skin as she rolled to her stomach. It was rare for her to sleep naked, and the shock of the feeling brought back the memory of the night before.

The thought of those lips on hers. Those hands on her body. That delicious tongue where she would have never pictured it. Teleporting herself back, she had simply thrown her clothes on the floor and barely stayed awake long enough to hook the camera up. As her eyed had started to drift shut, she had simply fallen into bed. Smiling she took a deep inhale before blowing it back out with a content sigh. She wasn't sure if they should have done it. Sex can complicate things. But in the after-glow of the night, she didn't care.

A quiet knock startled her. Stuffing the pillow over her head, she tried to ignore it.

"Hey, Rae?" Gar said from the other side, "Sorry to wake you, I heard you had the camera. I promised some kids I would be at the park today and they want pictures." Groaning she pushed the pillow aside and quickly levitated over some clothes off the floor. She slipped the shirt over her head. And without missing a step, levitated the shorts on. As soon as her hands were free she caught the camera and opened the door. Shoving the camera into his hands, she ignored the smirk on his face. He was trying to hide the fact that he could tell exactly why she was in such disarray. Gar had a certain way of always knowing what she had been up to. Arching a brow, she challenged him to comment that she probably still smelled pungently of sex.

"Do you need to get anything off here?" He asked, holding up the camera.

"No, I got it off last night."

"Probably my loss." He gave her a wicked smile, but she didn't reward him with a response. He was a harmless flirt. Glancing over him she wondered how he acted around those he actually did want to sleep with.

"Thanks, Rae" He lightly chuckled at her unamused stare, and gave the camera another bounce, turning to leave.

"Mhm," Raven waved him off and let the door close. Though before it fully shut, she caught Gar glance behind him and give her a small wink. Slipping back into bed, she wrapped her arms around her pillow and quickly fell back to sleep.

Raven woke again to a brightly lit room with a slight smile on her face. The small sleep had brought with it several delicious dreams. Some of which, were just memories of the previous night. Biting her lip, she rolled over in bed. It had been awhile since she slept that hard, but multiple orgasms probably did that to a body. Not that she had much experience with that.

It had taken her awhile to finally trust her emotions enough to do anything sexual. And she felt like she was just scratching the surface of what pleasure could mean. But she was shy and didn't know how to pursue other things. She had always let things up to her partner. And those were only pathetic goth humans she met at her café as Rachel. It was almost less of an exposure to have sex as Rachel and she thought that was probably why she had chosen to do it that way. Few of the titans knew her as Rachel. And if she was particularly awkward or unskilled one night, the next day as Raven no one would know. Not even the man she had been with. She also felt she could take risks as Rachel she couldn't as Raven. Raven had a heroic imagine to keep up, Rachel could do all sorts of naughty things.

However, all the guys she had been with had been relatively boring. And she didn't know how to ask for anything else. It always went through the same progression; some foreplay, possibly oral, then sex in one or two typical positions. Sometimes she would have an orgasm, if they kept up the foreplay enough. But other times, she just faked it to get them to hurry up and finish. A smile spread across her face as she compared all those sad excuses for pleasure, to last night.

Through puberty, she had read up on her heritage. There was story after story of the desires of a demon. And with finally accepting that she could feel emotions, she was also starting to accept her heritage and all it came with. Or trying to. Last night had certainly been a step in the right direction. Why should you just accept the destruction and mayhem, when there was insatiable lust and desire to go with it?

Taking her time, she showered and dressed. The common room was quiet as she ate. Everyone was out enjoying the beautiful summer day she assumed. And she was perfectly content enjoying a meal by herself. She savored her long lunch before returning to her room.

Casually she sat down her tea cup and tapped a key on her computer. Drumming her fingers on the cup as the machine whirled to life, she thought about her sex life in general. She wouldn't have guessed she would have enjoyed that as much as she had. Maybe she didn't know herself as much she had thought. The same message from last night flicked on the screen. It was telling her the pictures had been moved to her computer. Moving to close it, she noticed what it actually said. They had been copied. Copied. Not moved. Not cut and pasted. Copied. The blood quickly rose to her cheeks as she thought of her green teammate finding those pictures.

Immediately, she jumped up and flew down the hallway. Without considering any sort of common decency, she threw open Gar's door and landed in his room. He was already standing up from his chair when she entered. The look of shock already obvious. With his hands stretched out, he was instantly trying to calm her down.

"I didn't watch it I promise." The knot in her stomach worsened and she felt the creep of nausea start to roll in. She started to speak but he cut her off.

"I thought you had gotten everything off, so when I saw the video file I assumed the kids had taken a video accidently. Once I realized what it was I stopped. I promise." His voice had started to lose its frantic high pitch as he must have realized she wasn't angry. She had already stopped listening to him. Her mind had stopped at the mention of a video. They hadn't meant to make a video. Going over the night quickly she tried to think of when they might have started filming. The thundering of her heart had started out shouting anything he was saying. Those files were on someone else's computer, and now a video too. The pictures were one thing, she knew they were being taken. And if they got out, it wouldn't have been the worse thing. Embarrassing, probably. But this video could have anything from last night on it, and judging by the shock on Gar's face it contained something that shouldn't get out.

"Rae?" A voice broke through her thoughts.

"I have to go." She turned to leave, but stopped as she remembered the whole reason she had come to his room. Pivoting on her heels she looked back at him. He was straightening up from his computer again.

"Are you…" He started.

"Are they gone?" She blurted out, preparing to run again. He pointed to the computer.

"Yeah, they're all gone. Are you okay?" Stopping, she didn't know how to answer that. As thoughts of a video started swarming through her mind, thoughts of doubt also started to appear. Last night she was a bit too wrapped up in the moment to care about the next day. But the moment had sobered her, and now she wasn't. It wasn't just about a possibly innocent sex tape leak now. But someone else would surely find out about what she had done. Sex tape or not, secrets could only stay secrets for so long between five people sharing a house. What would they think of her?

Glancing up, she tried to judge what the first of the few would think. "I…we…um." She stammered out. He stepped closer, concern evident on his face. Gently he grabbed her arms, as you would to steady someone before they faint.

"Rae, listen the video is no big deal. It's gone. It certainly doesn't change anything between us. Hell, good for you. You looked happy this morning, despite your determination to glare at me." She let a small smile show, he was being nice about it at least. His voice dropped as his mind was obviously wandering. "I support it one hundred percent. I'm surprised though. This is pretty progressive of him, I always pictured him as a traditionalist in that aspect."

Raven regarded him for a second. What if things weren't so cut and dry as they had seemed last night? It was foolish worrying she thought, yet she couldn't shake an odd feeling something would turn sour from this point.

"I need to go, " she said quietly, glancing up again she saw he still looked slightly concerned. "I have to go make sure that video isn't getting out anywhere." She tried to assure him that was it.

"Mhm…it's not just about the video, is it?" Shaking her head, she looked down. His sigh assured her, he was thinking the same thing she was. With a few brushes of his thumbs on her arms, he let go.

"If you need an unaffiliated third party, or well… fourth," he tried to give her a smile, joking at the situation, "I'm here to listen." Again, she shook her head. There was only one person she could, and should talk to right now.
