These eight stories are the result of a challenge posted to the BLUDHAVEN@yahoogroups.com mailing list by Darklady. The challenge rules were that the fic must be approximately 150 - 200 words in length, must be a romance fic, and must pair Barbara Gordon with a male other than Dick Grayson. I had fun.
Oh yes – all the story titles are either song titles or song lyrics. Bonus points if anyone can name all the songs.
Characters are DC's. Stories are mine.

Lady in Red – challenge reply 1
by Chastity
166 words
Continuity: Probably not realistic. Some point in time where the original Titans
were together and the original Batgirl still around, and before Roy met
Cheshire. Additional note: I know NOTHING about Roy Harper, so I
apologize in advance. ;)

Red hair. Man,
that's a turn-on for me.
I mean, where I grew up, everyone had dark hair, right? Sometimes one of the girls would bleach her hair, but it was always so dark that it'd turn this straw-y dirty yellow. I was the only one on the entire reserve who had red hair.
Even once I hooked up with Ollie, there wasn't much difference. He's blond. Dinah's brunette, but she and Ollie both have a thing for the blonde wig - I just know it. The Titans have brown or black hair, except when Wally dyes his. Lots of people have dyed hair, but there aren't many with real red hair.
But Batgirl! She has flaming red hair, and emerald green eyes, and pale soft milky skin. It's all natural. I can tell.
And when she flies down from the rooftops, her hair sailing behind her, and flashes that huge bubbly grin…
It's a scene outta my dreams, I tell ya… that red, red hair.
