Chapter 4- Did he really just say he loved me?
Kori POV-
"Great, would you like me to get someone to get you things or-" Slade said overjoyed to have a new apprentice.
"No, I don't need anything from there. It means nothing to me now." I said coldly. I wanted to start off new. I could keep my name Kori but shall change my last name. But what to?
"Well than I would like to meet you as soon as I can. I shall have Alex bring you at once. May I speak to him again?" So I gave the phone back to Alex.
"Ya, ok." He said while walking into the hallway. I looked around and noticed a bag. My bag. That was the bag that has my clothes that I bought! I hopped off the counter and almost ran to my bag. I opened it up only to see my wallet sitting on top of my newly bought clothes. "Did Alex grab these? He is really nice to be Slade's kid. And hot too." I said to myself.
"Oh, don't worry I already knew." Oh no did he hear me? I turned around to see him leaning up against the doorway, phone in hand, and not to mention smirking like an idiot. Well how about I play this game too. I put on the flirtiest smile I could think of and turned around.
"You heard me." I winked at him and turned around. I grabbed my bag and walked up to him. I stopped inches from his face.
"So, where are we to meet Slade?" I asked. He laughed and replied.
"Follow me cat." He said. Did he just call me cat? Before I could ask he grabbed my hand in the process of turning around. He guided me to the cellar door. He opened it and turned to look at me.
"Ladies first."
"Why are we going down here?" I asked. Why were we going down here?
"You'll see."What was that supposed to mean? We were already at the bottom step when I was about to ask. He looked at me and signaled for me to look to the right. So I did and I- wow. There was shuttle. This was a subway?
"It's our privet transportation. It looks like we live here but really we just use it to get to the base." Alex explained. A base? Cool I feel like a secret agent. We walked over to the shuttle and got in.
Robin POV-
Oh great we got to the accident way too late. When we got there it was like a horror movie. Almost everything was on fire. There was blown up cars and I could see a tipped over bus. Then I saw a boy with a red force shield around him. He was destroying objects with his mind? Because his eyes were certainly closed and he just stayed still floating in his shield. So then I had enough. Too many people were hurt. "Titians Go!" I yelled. The next thing I knew we were fighting. And about ten minutes in us were losing too. We were losing very badly. And the worst part about it is that I was getting very fed-up with the team. They kept telling me to contact Star. She said that she wanted to take the day off and said that she didn't feel to up to it yet. I did not want to put her in the situation of battling when she could get severely hurt or pass out! Did they not hear her tell us that?
"Robin we need to contact Star! We need her!" Cyborg yelled. That was it. I was officially ticked.
"No! WE DO NOT NEED HER! SHE DOES NOTHING TO HELP! SO GROW UP AND FIGHT!" Wow did my temper tick. Great, I didn't mean to say that, but who will ever know? Maybe if I forget it, they'll forget it. About ten more minuets and they crazy kid was locked up and the living people with the ambulance.
We drove fast and got home in like two minutes. I sent Raven to check on Starfire and waited for her comeback. Then the door opened.
"Robin, Starfire's not here." What did she say? If she isn't here then where is she?
"Do you know where she is?" I asked. Hoping she did.
"No. The last time I – we saw her was when we left for the mission." She stated as a 'matter of fact'.
"Do you think she's hurt?" I was getting worried. Did something happen to her?
"Well I don't think we should just start skipping to conclusions. Let's just wait till like 10 o'clock and then we could skip to conclusions.
"Why are going to wait?" Why were we? I was confused.
"Because, maybe she went out to a restaurant. Or maybe she went to a store. We will just have to wait and see if she comes back. If she doesn't then you can start to panic. Ok?" She said. I guess she was right.
"Ok."
Kori POV-
The shuttle stopped and the door opened. Alex helped me out. I said thank you and looked around. It looked like a military base. There were few people walking around. The walls were metal, or maybe steel. The people that I could see were wearing mostly solid colors. The ones with clip boards had suits. Others looked prepared for war wearing hiking boots and gun belts. Most of the people were men. Where were all the women? I maybe saw two out of the nine. Alex then grabbed my hand and pulled me across the loading area. We walked through a door and I noticed us to be in a hallway. We kept moving though hallways before Alex spoke.
"So you know my uncle?"
I looked up at him. Did he just say uncle? I thought he was his dad.
"I thought Slade was your dad?" I asked.
"Ha," he laughed. ",Craig isn't even my blood family. You could call him my dad, but I don't like to think about dads." He must have seen my confused look because he continued, but first turned his head forward and kept walking. I followed listening.
"When I was four my dad used to abuse me in several ways. My mom died a few months after I was born. I don't know how. But so my dad would work late nights and come home at around seven. I stopped having a baby sitter when I was three because my dad thought I could hold my own. If he had a bad day at work he would come home and hit me. A few months later he started touching me too. That's when Craig found me. I jumped out my window one night and tried to run away. I ended up running into him. He asked me where my parents where and I told him about my mom and dad. He asked me my name and I replied 'Sam Bells'. He said he knew my mommy and asked me if I wanted to stay with him until I'm older. I gladly responded yes. When I was eleven I stared feeling weird. I got many headaches and I my bones ached too. One day I was walking home from school and my hands stared glowing. They stopped and I ran here and told Craig. For some reason he wasn't surprised. He told me how he meant my mom. It turns out he was doing some business outside earth. Like in space. I know you probably won't believe me." He stopped.
"Keep going." I said. He glanced at me then turned his away again.
"I'm an alien. My real name was Samu'elski'ntes. That's why my mom just called me Sam and our last name was Knites. I'm from a plant called Tamaran. I guess my mom moved to earth two years before she meant Joe, the asshole. I don't even know what my home planet looks like. None there will probably know me so what's the point of going back. And now I just told the girl I fell in love with in only two hours something that probably makes her think I'm crazy." He finished.
Oh my gosh! Alex is Tamaranian! And he loves me! I'm pretty sure I love him too. The spark meant something right? I thought I was the only one on earth too? Oh I am so joyous! I looked up to see Alex but he wasn't looking at me. He stayed looking down the hall on where he was bringing me with a big frown on his face. I felt so bad. I needed to tell him about me. Or maybe I should wait. Well I do need to talk to him. So I ran in front of him and stopped. He stopped to but kept his eyes on the floor.
"Alex look at me." I begged. He sighed and then slowly brought his eyes up to mine. Then another wave of happiness washed through me. Yup, I'm diffidently in love with him too.
"Are you ok?" I needed to make sure he was fine. He just spilt his guts out to me. He has probably told no one except for Craig, or I mean Slade.
"Well I don't really know. I have never told anyone except Craig and you probably think I'm crazy. If you don't want to be near me that's fine I'll ask Craig to put me in a different side of the base. Gosh I ruined this! I like you a lot and I know that you don't feel the same wa-"Alex was then stopped short by my lips being pressed against his. I couldn't take any more of his uncertainty. If he likes me and I like him why not try something and find out where in may lead. We moved our mouths in rhythm of each other. And before long Alex pulled away first and lent his forehead against mine. I opened my eyes to see him looking at me. I smiled.
"You never gave me a chance to boast my opinion." I said. Then he smiled too.
"Well I guess I shouldn't give you say more often." He replied. Then his belt started talking. I then saw a hand radio hanging from it.
"So I see you two are well acquainted with each other." said Slade from the little radio.
"What?" asked Alex looking very confused and blushing to? Well I was blushing as well. How did he see us? I looked around then spotted something on the wall.
"Alex." I said pointing to the little camera on the wall. He turned to me then followed my gaze.
"Oh man, when I want him to see something he says 'one minute' then never shows and when I want him to leave me alone he spies in." he complained. I giggled. He looked at me again this time smiling.
"So does this mean you like me?" he asked.
"Only if you're my boyfriend." I smiled as he looked at me with anticipation.
"Serious?" he asked hoping for a yes. That was just what I was going to give him.
"Yes."
"Well than I would be honored." He replied grabbing my hand in his.
"Glorious!" I stated.
"Well then I think Craig his getting antsy so we better hurry over there, okay love?"
I looked up at him. Love? Hmmm I like that. So I nodded and let him take to where ever Slade was.
OK so up is Chapter 4! I had to put in some fluff! And also now you know Alex's backround! Ok so now I got to go type up Chapter 5. Have a glorious day!
