Kori frowned as she watched Dick throw a pillow at Barbara. Raven looked at her, "Hey, Star, something bugging you?"
"Oh, no, I'm fine, friend Raven."
"Ok, but if you need to talk to somebody, I'm here."
"Ok, I will remember."
Raven turned back towards the movie just in time to see Barbara bury her face in Dick's shoulder and felt Kory jump.
"Hey, Dick, remember when we were fighting the Full House Gang and you incapacitated by the fact that Ten said you were cute?" Barbara teased.
"Yes, I remember…" Dick laughed.
Kara turned to Kori, "Hey, you ok?"
"I am fine, new friend Kara" Kori said pointedly, "So Babs…why could you not walk for a while?"
Barbara looked at her feet, "The Joker, he shot me in the stomach. And then he took pictures of me in pain to show my dad just because he could."
"I want to kill him for what he did to you" Dick hissed.
"You know what Alfred says, Revenge may dull the pain but the less we feel the less we are; Plus we're the good guys, we don't kill" Barbara said.
"Some days, Babs, I don't know how you do it."
"Hey, can we talk about something slightly more pleasant?" Barbara asked.
"Yeah, sure" Dick smiled.
After the movie everyone started scuttling of to bed. Kori tapped Raven on the shoulder, "Friend Raven, could I talk to you in my room of bed?"
"Sure, Kori…lets go."
Once they were in Kori's room the young alien turned to Raven and said, "Have you ever experienced the feeling in which your stomach turns and you get the flies of butter in it as well when you're around a person and you blush when you talk to them and you can't think straight?"
"Weirdly enough, yes…" Raven said, "I have experienced the feeling know as love before."
Kori gaped at her friend, "Is that true?"
Raven looked at her and calmly said, "No, let me guess…Dick?"
"Yes, how did you know?" Kory asked.
"It is quite obvious; I think Dick is the only one who doesn't know."
Kory laughed, "Oops…"
"Hey, don't worry about it."
"He really likes her doesn't he?" Kory asked.
"They're just friends, Kory" Raven reminded her.
"I am not so sure" Kory whispered.
"Would he really keep something like that from us?" Raven pointed out.
"It is possible but I do not want to believe he is capable."
"I thought as much."
"Well" Raven said, "Until we are certain we shouldn't jump to conclusions."
"You are right, friend Raven."
"Though it is sad what happened to her…" Raven said.
"Very, I suppose I can understand why she would want to be with an old friend in this situation."
"You know she reminds me of you, the hair, the eyes, cheerful nature…"
"Do you find that odd?"
"Yes, it is strange that someone who has had that happen to them is still so upbeat."
"Why is it strange to have this "nature of cheerful"?"
"Because people often tend to lose hope after something like that. It is hard on her, I can sense it but she doesn't want to be a burden so she hides it."
"I think I understand."
"It is interesting, that Dick has never spoken of her before today really though…"
"Yes, it caught me be surprise as well."
