Hello again everyone. This is the final chapter of this story but if I get some positive feedback I can extend it longer. Other than that thank you for all the support and I will see you in my other stories. Read, Review and Enjoy :)
Raven woke up and found everyone in the common room. Richard was cooking Christmas dinner and Jaime and Garfield were on the couch talking to Donna and Kori.
"Hey Raven." Donna yelled out.
"Hey." Raven waved back.
"Finally we can open presents!" Garfield yelled out.
"No we still have to wait for Damian." Kori stopped Garfield.
"Well where is he?" Garfield asked.
"I'm not sure." Kori responded. "Richard where is Damian?"
"Probably training right?" Donna said unknowingly.
"No he's not there but I thought you guys knew." Richard responded.
"Beetle can't sense him in the area." Jaime added.
"So where could he be?" Raven worried. She was scared that her kiss warded him away.
"Well we should look around still shouldn't we?" Donna said. "He is a master assassin so we probably just need to look around." With that the team split up looking through the tower for Damian.
Damian had finally arrived at his destination. He left early morning and got past the alarm careful not to wake any of the titans. Damian got off of the bike and went to the door carrying a box.
"Hello Master Damian." Greeted Alfred.
"Where is my father?" Damian asked.
"In the bat cave." Alfred responded. Damian walked off and looked back.
"Merry Christmas Alfred." Damian said leaving Alfred's mouth ajar.
"Damian." Bruce said simply.
"Father." Damian replied. Damian walked over to him and gave him a box.
"Merry Christmas." Damian said.
"Thank you Damian." Bruce thanked him with a surprise.
"Here I got this for you." Bruce handed Damian a gift.
"What is it?" Damian asked.
"Open it when you get back to the tower and you'll see." Bruce said. Damian said goodbye and walked to the door with his father driving off back to Jump City.
"Master Bruce?" Alfred asked.
"Yes Alfred." Replied Bruce.
"He is changing isn't he." Alfred stated more than asking.
"Yes. I think the Titans are working for him." Bruce responded.
When Damian got back to the tower it was about 6:00. He walked into the door looking around to see everyone concerned. They all looked at him.
"What?" Damian asked venomously.
"Where were you!" Richard asked concerned.
"In Gotham what are you my babysitter?" Damian asked.
"Technically yes." Richard replied. "What were you doing?" Richard saw the box in his hand.
"Nevermind." Richard said. "Now that he's here lets eat shall we?"
Everyone sat down at the table and Damian sat next to Raven everyone was eating laughing and talking but Raven and Damian had a side conversation.
"What happened?" Raven asked.
"I went to go see Bruce." Damian said plainly.
"Oh." Raven said shocked. A long silence between them ensued.
"Look I didn't mean to push you away with the kiss Damian. I'm sorry." Raven apologized.
"It's fine Raven." Damian responded.
"Really?" Raven asked.
"Yes. The truth is I like you too but I was trained to suppress any emotion except hate so I never would have acted on it." Damian admitted. Raven smiled and ate in peace with Damian. Garfield and Jaime got done eating and opened all their presents. Donna rushed over and opened hers. Jaime got her a beautiful golden bracelet and she kissed him on the cheek. The rest of the team opened their present except Raven saved Damian's gift and Damian saved Raven's. They waited for everyone else to go to sleep.
Raven and Damian had to wait until midnight for everyone to fall asleep. Raven went back to her room and changed into some pajamas. The fireplace was lit and she sat next to Damian on the couch in front of it.
"I thought you were going to sleep." Damian said.
"We haven't had much time together." Raven responded. "I still have your gift."
"Oh well I opened yours already." Damian confessed.
"Well I guess I'll open yours then." Raven said while opening the box. She looked inside and saw a piece of jewelry. It was a necklace with a Raven on it made of amethyst and with a gold border. Raven stared in awe.
"I hope you like it." Damian said. "I've never done this before. I've never had anyone else..." Damian trailed off.
"You have me Damian." Raven said with tears filling her eyes hugging Damian. She was on top of Damian on the couch and she leaned in to kiss him. They were locked in a passionate kiss and Damian was at a loss for words. He pushed her away.
"What's wrong?" Raven asked.
"I'm sorry Raven but I can only do if a woman loves me and I love her. I can't do this if you just have some crush on me." Damian apologized.
"I do love you Damian." Raven said.
"You do?" Damian asked confused.
"Yes." Raven responded.
"Well I love you too Raven." Damian admitted. Raven tackled him onto the floor and they kissed in front of the fire place. It was deep and sensual. Raven's legs were on both sides of Damian. It lasted for a while until they stopped.
"Well that was nice. I'll see you in the morning then." Damian said walking away.
"Wait." Raven said grabbing his hand. "Why don't you just sleep in my room?" Raven suggested. Damian blushed at the suggestion.
"I don't think we should be having sex yet Raven." Damian said sheepishly said.
"I wasn't saying we would be." Raven said. "Although your other body part is saying otherwise." Raven pointed down. Damian looked down and his eyes widened.
"Alright lead the way." Damian said with a sigh. Raven took Damian's hand and took him into her room. He pulled away.
"Merry Christmas Raven." Damian said.
"Merry Christmas Damian." Raven replied. Raven threw Damian onto the bed and started kissing him.
