(Metropolis - Central Park)
The cold morning air bit through Kara's clothes. She wasn't even sure what it was she was doing out here. Brainac 5 and her had a falling out and she came back home. It wasn't that she didn't enjoy being with him, but he was too much like his ancestor to be around for any length of time. So instead she came back to a world she knew. Once she was back several things had surprised her. For one Galatea had survived the huge amount of electricity that Kara had used against her. Also it seemed that 'Tea' was currently dating Nightwing. She tried to figure out the attraction. She came to realize that Dick must have a weakness for bad girls and hard luck cases. 'Tea' fit both of those pretty easily. Lois was living out at Ma and Pa Kent's since what happened to Clark happened. So going to Clark's apartment was out of the question. Instead she was just standing in the cold air trying to figure out what happened to her life.
"You'll catch your death of cold out here." A masculine voice said from behind her.
Kara turned to see a young man standing behind her. His features looked familiar and at the same time they looked foreign. She studied him for several minutes before her eyebrows raised.
"Tim?" Kara asked.
"Long time no see." He said as he walked toward her. His Robin costume had changed slightly. It still had the original red, green, and yellow in it, but they where darker, sleeker than they had once been.
"It's good to see you." She said as she hugged him.
"Good to see you too Kara." He whispered.
She released him from her embrace and studied him for a moment.
"I heard some things happened when I was gone." She said.
"We've survived. Kara... Don't beat yourself up over what happened. Even if you would have been here I doubt if you could have made much of a difference." he said.
"Maybe he would be alive... I mean I could have tried to save him." She said softly.
"Maybe, but even with Galatea's help they weren't a match for him. I think that if you would have been there it could have caused more harm than help. After all that thing would have come after you and that would have thrown Clark even more off." Tim said as he walked with her.
"I still should have been here." She said before she felt a hand on her shoulder and she turned toward the man before her. She looked him in the eyes and leaned forward kissing his cheek.
She feels him kissing her cheek and something seemed to click. She didn't know if it was the anguish of Clark dying, or if it was need to connect with someone for a moment, but she moved and kissed Tim deeply. For a moment he moaned softly and then he pulled her closer. Their mouths mashed together finding a deeper connection before Kara backed out of it. She looked toward the ground.
"Sorry..." She said softly.
"Don't be." Tim said with a lop sided grin.
"I just... Tim... I don't want to be alone... Can... Can you stay with me for a while?" She asked.
"Sure... How does dinner sound? You look starved." He said.
"Dinner would be nice." She said as she felt him take her arm and the two of them began to walk out of the park together.
