"You didn't do this. Tell me you didn't." Raven rubbed her temples as she glared at a sheepish boy wonder. He smiled at her and gestured to the limo that was parked outside of the tower. He opened the door for her and bowed slightly which made her frown grow. She slowly climbed into the vehicle and smiled slightly at the old man who was sat at the wheel. Robin climbed in after her.
"Thank you Alfred." The old man nodded and started the engine. The car pulled away from the tower and made its way into the city. The pair exchanged a few glances but the trip was mostly in silence. The drive continued for a few more minutes before it pulled up in front a posh looking restaurant.
"Here we are master Grayson. Enjoy your evening." Robin smiled gratefully at the old man as he helped Raven to climb out of the limo without fault. The pair walked into the restaurant.
"Reservation for Grayson?" The young man stood waiting for customers looked at his reservation list, smiled and gestured for the pair to follow him. He led them through the main part of the restaurant and into a more secluded area with only a few other guests present. The man left two menus on the table and told the couple that he would return in a few minutes to take their orders.
"He seemed...nice." Awkwardness settled over the couple as they studied their menus. One of the them would look at the other before casting their eyes back down in order to avoid eye contact.
"You guys ready to order?" They looked at each other before nodding and telling him what they wanted. The man brought them a jug of water and left to serve a family in the largr area. The awkwardness resumed until Raven picked up the jug, poured two glasses and slammed it back down.
"I can't do this." Robin was confused but tried not to show it.
"Do what?"
"This." She gestured to the building. "I know we both agreed that we should try a date but I'm not doing this if its just going to be silent. We have an entire language to make a conversation from and we both opt to sit in silence like we've never met before!" She sighed before pushing her seat away from the table. "I'm going for a walk. I'll see you back at the tower." She turned and was about to walk away when Robin grabbed her wrist. She turned to see that he had stood up and was right next to her.
"Don't go. Please. I'm sorry, I'm just nervous. We've been together for a while, I know, but I don't know how to do this." He frowned but let go of her arm. Raven took a deep breath and turned back to her seat.
"Let's just eat and then we go somewhere that we're both comfortable with." He nodded and sat. Maybe it wouldn't be that bad.
