I'm laying on top of Robin, half naked, my hands on his chest, his arms kind of around my waist, in the middle of the common room at 2:00 AM. How did I get here? Instead of ripping away from him like I should have, I went into a memory flash of how I got here and what had happened TO get me here.
It started with me staring at the clock miserably earlier that night. It read 1:00 AM. My head screamed 'GO TO BED' but my body wouldn't let me. It was just to damn hot! 105F god was it HOT. It was so unlike me, but I had been forced to strip down to a Cammie and some panties.
I had tried reading, writing, even drew a little, but I couldn't fall asleep in this horrible heat.
Finally, brainlessly, I opened my door and started down the empty hall. I trode lightly, the cool metal of the floor soothing my feet. The Tower was silent. I crept down into the kitchen and groped the wall blindly until I managed to find the light. I flicked it on and squinted as my eyes adjusted to the bright light, then stumbled over to the fridge.
I paused at the door, thinking for what seemed like the first time that night. 'Did I truly want to look in here just to find a heap of mold and waffles? NO.' So I just gabbed some Oreos from the cabinet and some water from the tap and sat at the table munching.
I would have liked some milk but didn't feel like risking it. Not going to look in there . After gaining some sense I became aware of what clothing I had on. My face instantly flushed even though I was the only one in the room. I could not believe how stupid I had been. What if someone came in?
In a sudden (and unwelcome) surge of panic I bolted up and ran for the door. But before I reached it, it slid open and before I could rush to a halt, I was hit smack face in a sweaty chest...bare chest. This someone grabbed me and we spun around a couple of times before he landed with a thud on the ground. Not until I eased my eyes did I realize that it was Robin I clung to. And THAT is how I, Raven, found myself laying on top of Robin, half naked, my hands on his chest, his arms kind of around my waist, in the middle of the common room at 2:00 AM
