So, how's it going? I'm here with a the entire summer so I can have quality time with my computer.

a.n – I only own Dencia and Jordan. Not anyone else, sadly. Also, there's a possibility of OOC and the single apostrophes are thoughts!

I woke up on a couch in the STN building with a cloth on my forehead. There was nothing but silence in the room until Michael came back with his hands full of grocery bags. Well, at least he was happy about something.

When he had reached his desk and put the bags down, Michael looked over at me and saw that my eyes were open and watching him.

"Robin," he said, surprised, "you're awake!"

He ran over to me as I tried to sit up, but for some reason my head was in so much pain I held it, hoping that my arms would make it feel a little better. When Michael saw me holding my head, he immediately placed a hand on my back to support me up.

"Hey, take it easy. You've been out for a while and I don't want you passing out again."

That's when I realized it. It was very dark in the building and seemed to be well after hours.

"Oh no," I said, letting go of my head, "I need to go home."

At this, I pushed myself off of the couch and tried to walk towards the elevator, but instead, I had stumbled clumsily and landed on my knees a few feet away from where I started. Then it began again, that massive headache that just didn't feel natural. Still sitting, I slowly turned back to Michael, who was watching silently.

"Or maybe not. You don't mind if I stay here for a while, do you?"

"Not at all."

"Thanks." Was all I could say as the hacker came to me and carried me back to the couch. He walked back to his desk and emptied out the contents of the bag he had received a few minutes earlier. I then saw him walk into another room before I had drifted back into sleep.

At the same time outside, Dencia and another man were standing across the street from Raven's Flat, trying to see inside through the windows with binoculars.

"Do you think this is going to work?" the man asked.

"It should. I've had plenty of practice with others, so I don't see why this girl would cause problems."

"But she's a hunter. A witch hunter. She hunts people like you for a living."

"What's your point?" Dencia said annoyed, but she then saw the anxiety in her friend's eyes, which caused her to momentarily forget about the initial plan, "Jordan, please trust me."

He could say nothing, but only nodded his head in agreement.

"I only want you to be careful, aren't you remembering what happened to your-"

"I know." Interrupted Dencia, "I remember exactly what happened which I why I need this girl."

"To find your family?" Jordan questioned.

"Yes."

"Why? It's been several months since the whole incident, so why continue on like this?"

"Because I cannot believe that they are dead until I see for myself."

Once again, I woke up on the same couch from earlier, but now I felt…different. As though I couldn't control myself. So, in other words, I felt like a puppet. I instantly sat up straighter than usual and stood next to the couch. The next thing I new, my feet were taking me to Michael's desk. As I was walking, there was a coffee table that was in my way, but I only stepped over it.

Eventually, I had reached his desk, but Michael only looked up at me speechless. Why was that? Maybe he hadn't seen me get up so quickly, but before I had time to say anything, I felt my body moving around the desk and in front of him. He said nothing and neither could I, the two of us were in silence until he finally mustered up some nerve.

"What are you doing?" he asked.

"I'm not sure."

There was a chair behind me, so I pulled it over and sat next to Michael as he continued to surf the net. Now I felt as though I had some control over my own body again, but the question remained; what was going on?

"Is there anything bothering you?" he asked, catching me off guard.

'Am I that obvious today or something?' I thought.

"Robin?"

'Oh no, think of something!'

"No," I lied.

"Than why are you up? Can't sleep?"

Oh, how I wish it were that simple.

"Michael," I said quietly, "have you ever had one of those days when you just don't feel yourself?"

"What?" he turned to face me, which was the moment I saw the intense curiosity behind his eyes.

"Nevermind that," I said, shaking my head a little, and at the same time, inching closer to him, "You know, I've actually been thinking about something. How does it feel to be here all by yourself at night? I can imagine it gets very lonely, don't you think?" My hand reached out to grab his, my hand placed itself on his cold, slightly rough palm, "Aside from days of not feeling yourself, are there ever days you don't want to be by yourself?"

"Every night." He replied in a slight whisper, "why do you ask?"

"Curiosity."

By this time, the two of us were so close, I felt the hacker's ragged breathing on my skin. The next thing that happened was unintentionally my doing. My head went closer to his and I soon felt his lips on mine. In that kiss, it felt as though all of the hacker's lonely nights were being thrown out the window. I felt all the loneliness in that one kiss and it made me understand what he had to go through every day, but suddenly I was pulled away.

"Can you do me a big favor? Well, actually two things." I said to a slightly pink hacker.

"What's that?" he asked. His voice had cracked slightly which oddly gave me a sense of completion.

"That witch we hunted this afternoon, could you give me the information on her family?"

"Bu-"

I was pulled down to kiss him deeply again before he had a chance to decline my request. My eyes had opened and were searching for a file that should have been next to one of the many computers in this area. When I had finally spotted it, I noticed that Michael had tried to pull away, but I stopped him by grabbing onto his shirt.

The file was very close, I tried to reach it, but when the cover opened, there was only information on the witch and not her family. Now I was filled with disappointment and dread. This was all going to get very difficult. Then, I remembered I was trying to keep Michael busy, but since there was nothing to keep him busy from, I was pulled away again.

"Don't tell anybody about this." I said quickly and collected my things so I could leave.

While in the elevator, as the doors were closing, I saw Michael watch me leave in confusion. It was only until I felt the movement that everything I had done made me realize that something was truly wrong.

"Did you find anything?" Jordan asked, looking intently at his partner.

"Nothing, except…" Dencia stopped and grinned, "that hacker is one hell of a good kisser."

Wee!!! Was that one any good? I know that most of y'all want A/R but this WILL have at least one chappie of that, so don't kill me if I used Michael right now. (Becuase if you kill me, who's gonna update??)
