The Teen Titans were all hanging out in front of the TV watching a stupid action flick Beast Boy had picked out when the door to the main room opened. They all craned their necks except BB who was too consumed by the colored screen. There in the door in the door frame was debatable one of the greatest heroes of all time: Batman.
Robin jumped out of his seat in shock. In fury he said, "What are you doing here?"
Batman walked in followed by a boy about 12 years old dressed in a robin costume. He walked in and went straight for the fridge. Cyborg yelled, "Hey! Stay away from my ribs!"
They all soon silenced when they saw the staring contest going down between Batman and Robin. They stayed like they all stayed like that for a moment until a Batgirl came into the room. She had grown her hair out since seeing him last and he was shocked to see how she had gone from super short to past shoulders.
She ran past Batman and jumped over the couch to pounce on. He had been caught off guard so she was able to land one good punch to the jaw before he could counter.
The fought and shouted, "What are you doing?"
Batgirl started to dry and become slacky with her fighting, "Why? Why did you leave without as much as a good bye? Why didn't you answer my letters, e-mails, phone calls? Why?" She was now on top of him crying and smacking his chest with both her fists.
They were all staring at them except Batman, he walked over to his two students and pulled the girl to her feet she covered her face in shame but couldn't hold back the tears. Robin was still on his back staring up at this girl he had hurt so much.
All of the other Teen Titans were in amazement in the girls actions. Robin got to his feet and looked at Barbra, "I'm sorry-"
"Monster . . . . I don't even know why we even came here!" She ran out of the room. It took a moment but Robin ran after her.
Robin followed her to the roof of his home. They were both being slightly pushed by the wind. Robin was the first to interrupt the silence, "I'm sorry."
"No you aren't! If you were you would have at least called! Did you even read my letters I've sent you one every week did you know that? You've probably getting your mail-"
He cut her off, "Yes! I read them all! Do you want to know why I never wrote back? I was scared you would be mad that I left without telling you. But you have to know that if I knew I was going to not come back I would have come to your house and said good bye."
"Do you know what it's like to find out your best friend has dumped you for four complete strangers. It sucks!" She started sobbing. "Why did Bruce make me come here?"
"Barbra? I never meant to hurt you, you have to bel-"
"Just like you never meant to hurt Alfred or Gothem right? Well you did! That Slade guy well he teamed up with Joker. Alfred is under Joker and Slade's new Happy Gas, he's in a coma!"
"What?" Robin's knuckles turned white.
She looked scared for a moment and then turned to him with a look of distress, "When Joker, Batman and Robin were fighting on the roof, Slade and I were alone in the building. He said I was going to take your place as his apprentice."
Robin choked his whole life had gone from 0 to 60 in a minute. "It's going to be fine."
"Are you his apprentice? Please say no. I didn't tell Batman because I know how he'd react."
"I'm not his apprentice. He tried to make me be. He wants someone to carry his torch." Robin moved closer to Barbra. "I won't let him touch you." She was in his arms she hadn't felt this safe since he had left.
"Don't leave me again, please. I don't think I could take it a second time." She was sobbing and her legs collapsed but she didn't fall to the cement. He held her up with his arms.
They were interrupted by Starfire, "Ummmm, Batman wanted me to come get you but I'll tell him you are busy." She was jelous and she did do a good job of hiding it but these two had been trained to pick up on the traits of human behavior.
"Starfire," Robin looked at the alien girl while Barbra regained her composure and started to walk towards the roof door.
Bat and Star brushed each other and the tention rose. In Starfire's mind she could easily take this girl in love and battle, but her company knew better Barbra had always captured Dick's heart and she could without trying take down a silly Star. (Sorry Starfire fans I think she's a stupid secret blonde. And she pissed me off so she's going to suck in this fan fic got a problem take it up with someone who cares)
The three of them were walking down when Batgirl turned to Robin, "Where's your bathroom?" Her eyes were still puffy and she knew she had to clean them up before seeing Batman or else he would know everything that had happened in a blink of an eye.
Starfire perked up, "Down that hall." She pointed to the hall on her right.
"Thanks," Barbra turned down the hall but before out of sight glanced at Dick. Starfire noticed and started to interrogate the poor boy.
"So you two have history?"
"Yeah, she's a good old friend of mine."
"Just friends, looked like more to me." The air went dry and all conversation stopped. Robin became on edge, he knew Starfire like him and he knew he didn't feel the same. Yes he felt some heat between the two of them in the beginning but nothing like Barb. Star was a lit cigar and Barb was the sun. They didn't even need to compete.
Robin slowly answered her inquiries, "Yes, we're more than just friends. She is and always will be my best friend."
