So this is one of my favorite Titans fics. It's a Raven/ Jinx fic and I for some reason I love it. Maybe because my beta, Orange was so very excited by it. Maybe because I just got to use a lot of synonms for love, who knows. Any way here it is, after the pretty little cut...
( A Little Love Song )
A/n: This is my first shojo-ai piece. It was different for me because it was a piece about love between two girls. But surprisingly I found that once I found my…groove the story rolled right onto the paper. The story involves my two favorite females, Jinx and Raven. It’s told from Jinx’s point of view. Enjoy.
Disclaimer: Teen Titans are property of DC Comics. Not me. The title of the piece comes from the amazing song of the same name by the awesome Jose Vanders. Also certain lines were inspired by the beautiful poem ‘i carry your heart’ by the great e.e.cummings.
She carried her heart. Lying next to her beloved in the moonless night, hand clasping hers, she knew it to be true. The lily-white woman next to her held Jinx’s heart. Her heart was nestled right next her inamoratas, where they fluttered in tandem, like two small birds in flight. Like two flickering, flittering stars exploding into supernovas.
Staring at the amethyst head cuddled to her chest, ear pressed to her heart in hopes of hearing it soft and soothing lullaby Jinx could only smile tenderly. Smile and thank the empyrean for leading their souls to one another. For letting them find and hear each other above the noise and the babble of the world.
They hadn’t planned this. Neither girl had foreseen one another in each other’s lives, in each other’s paths. At least not like this they hadn’t. They had been enemies’ first, acquaintances, battle buddies and compatriots and finally friends. They hadn’t ever considered the possibility that their friendship would effloresce into something deeper, burst forth into something more potent, more puissant, and more meaningful.
Never did they dream they would end up finding the one who could answer the songs their souls were singing. Soul mates. Beloved.
But they did. Above the din, the tumult and the cacophony of the world, who tried to keep them apart, who told them that they shouldn’t, couldn’t, wouldn’t be together; they heard and found each other. They found each other even though the world tried it’s damnedest to keep them apart. They heard the siren call of their souls to one another.
They did not hide their love. Love was the one emotion Raven found setting her free, allowing her to live to truly free herself from all prior bonds and restraints, turning her cloak the most stunning shade of white, that she seemed to glow, to shine. And Jinx…Jinx was a firm believer that one could not tell their heart who to love, who to share themselves and their world with. She was a firm believer that no one else could tell whom to love either. She believed that love knew no sex, knew no race, and knew no boundaries. It only knew the brightness of the loved ones smile, the sweetness of their kiss, the gentle balm of their souls upon each other. Besides who cared if the world had a stick up its ass. All that mattered was that she and Raven were happy.
They knew as sure as they knew that the sun would rise, that not everyone in their world would share their joy, their happy, their love (it had taken Jinx months to get the surprisingly conservative Kid Flash to speak to them again). But they were okay with that. They did not need the world to love them because they had each other. It was enough. It was all they needed, all they found they truly wanted.
Looking over at the dreaming woman beside her, her milk-white face marred by the creasing of the sheets, her small hands grasping Jinx’s equally tiny hand, fingers intertwined, all Jinx could think about was how much she loved her. All she could focus on was the amazingly intense surge of love rushing through her. How much she wanted to be with her for as long as the gods above could give them.
She knew that as long as they were together she could face the day. As long as she was hers, she feared no destiny, no kismet, because Raven was her destiny, her fate. The picturesque girl next to her was her all, her world, her home, her roots, and her truth. She was the wonder, the joy, and the grace that was keeping the stars apart.
And Jinx adored her for it.
Jinx wanted to hold Raven’s heart in her hands, cradle the sweet light, the fragile flames of her soul with her own. She wanted to sing the opus in their hearts, exclaiming the voiceless melody from the top of the highest hills, sending her love to heavens above.
She carried her heart. She carried it in her heart.
A/N: So yeah…here it is. Um…I like this. A lot. I truly do enjoy this piece, although I’m not sure what it is that I love about it. I’m not really sure what more to say except that I hope you all like it too. Leave me a review and let me know what you think.

Yeah so the rest of my fics will probably pop up here, even though most are old. So yeah...that's all.
