Title: Clever man, clever


Police office Richard Greyson was never a man who could express his feelings well. That's why the man chose to be stoic, withdrawn and quiet. That was one of the many reasons why he was glad to be sharing an apartment with an equally quiet, withdrawn woman that never bothered to question him or pester him to no end.

It was also she who he found himself falling for. The problem however was that while she was so alike to him, she was also someone who could let go and be different. Thus the reason why he was currently sitting in their livingroom sofa.

The man sitting before him gulped again and fixed his tie. Ricahrd's eyes began to narrow even more. This idiot was simply irritating him.

The tall, red headed and handsome man sat tapping his fingers on the handle of the sofa. What was taken Raven so long? It had been ten minutes already since he arrived to pick her up for their date. Now even though he was a patient man, the fact that her roommate was sitting before him was making him nervous as hell. The man gas glaring at him and he wondered why.

"Ah, hello my name is Roy...how are you?"

Richard crossed his arms over his chest but did not answer.

Trying again Roy smiled nervously "I'm friends with Raven from...ah, the university"

you could probably hear crickets at this point. That's how silent it was.

"So are you her bother? Because you don't look alike" he chuckled and Richard wished he could just blow the idiot away.

"Well, maybe a cousin" they both heard Raven curse from within the room and that brought a smile to Richard's face.

Turning back to Richard, Roy scratched the back of his head "cute isn't she?"

Richard knew that this idiot was never going to make Raven happy. No one could understand her or her ways. Slowly he uncrossed his arms and decided to fish inside his suit jacket. Pulling out his gun Robin pointed it at Roy.

Roy seeing the gun let his eyes widened "ah...hey what are you doing with that? Put that thing away man"

Richard leveled the gun to the man's face "leave"

Standing fast Roy looked at Richard in the eyes "wh-what–what do you mean leave? Hey man I'm here for Raven, she's my date"

Richard tightened his grip on the butt of the gun "Leave"

an intake of breath, a nervous chuckle and the widening of the eyes...this guy is for fucking real. Oh shit this isn't worth it. I should have asked Kori out instead. Damn it. Moving as quickly as he could Roy made his way to the door and out in to the world away from the lunatic roommate.

Putting his gun away with a wide smirk Richard leaned back into the couch.

Victor an old friend who was staying with them at the moment smiled from within the kitchen "you know that's the seventh guy you've run out of here. Raven is going to be hell at pissed at you. Aren't you ever going to let her find her soul mate?"

Richard looked to his side at Victor and only grinned. Victor shook his head "but then again that's your motive isn't it? That way you get your chance. Clever man, very clever"
