Horrifically Pleasant

She didn't know exactly what she was doing at that precise moment, standing in the middle of the hallway. His hallway. Maybe it had been the fact that he was also standing there in the middle of the hallway. At this moment, to her anyway, he looked more like a traffic light than in any other instance. But at the moment she wasn't focused on that she was, however, focused on the scent, as she'd decided to call it, of him. Though her train of thought led her to forget, once again, the exact reason she was standing there in the first place.

Raven wasn't the kind of girl to swoon over boys, or men if you prefer. She personally thought that if you weren't mature enough to hold a civil conversation with someone you were, of course, still a child. Seeing as Robin had the maturity and mental capacity to hold an intelligent conversation she considered him a man. Well, in truth he considered him sort of a man-boy. Not old enough to be a man and yet, not so young as to be a boy.

She didn't think that she'd actually find the reason why she had stopped so suddenly in the hallway while she was still in the predicament. The air conditioner conveniently started up and she, coincidently, was down wind of him and was in fact reminded of exactly why she initially stopped.

Raven's eyes slid closed and she found herself inhaling his scent. Something that Robin noticed as he was still befuddled at the reason she was still standing in the hallway. Of course, how could he not notice the love of his life, standing a little less than three feet away from him with the blast of the air conditioning blowing her cloak back so he could see her perfect, shapely legs? And he, being Robin, would try to resist temptation as long as he could unfortunately this was too much for him and he found himself wrapping his arms around the dark-eyed beauty's waist. What surprised him mostly was the fact that she was leaning into him burrowing her face into his shoulder.

So this was what held her in this accursed hallway. Raven leaned into him wondering why the scent of him was stronger now, for her eyes were still closed. When she found herself wrapped in his arms after she finally opened her eyes she thought, 'Curse that horrifically pleasant scent of his!' Though her actions betrayed her thoughts when she burrowed even deeper into his warmth and his scent.
