We Have A History
chapter 7
"Hey Dad." Zatanna greeted her dad when he cam in their apartment home.
Giovanni sighed and went to hug his daughter who was sitting on the couch. Zatanna didn't expect it at all, "Are you okay? Is everything alright?"
"It's about the team." He said slowely.
"Are they hurt, injured, or what!" Zatanna was frantic now because she loved the team.
"No, they had an accident during the simulation. They are all okay physically, but not mentally." He explained.
"Dad, can I help them or something." Zatanna suggested.
"No you can't leave. You're still grounded." He stated.
"But I.." She was interrupted by his stern look. Then she opened her mouth again, "Can I at least call them. Please."
Giovanni sighed again, "Fine, but only tonight."
She hugged her dad tightly, "Yay thanks dad."
"But only them Zatanna." He warned her.
Before she closed the door to her room she said, "Of course."
She dialed Robin's number. It took 3 rings until he finally answered, "Hey Zatanna this isn't the best time."
He couldn't believe it, but he's actually shunning Zatanna. Although, it was the wrong time. Zatanna replied back, "I know. My dad just told me what happened in the simulation. And he let me talk to you, but I can't go there."
"It's okay. Well it's not the most happy place here in the cave right now." Robin still had a sad tone in his voice.
"Well I might not be there, but you ca still talk to me through the phone if you like." She suggested.
"Thanks, but it's just too much right now. Okay?"
Zatanna just nodded to herself, "Okay. Well you know my number."
"Yeah, bye."
"Bye." They both turned off the call. She sighed in her bed trying to figure out how much pain they were feeling right now, but in her eyes she just couldn't imagine it all.
...
It was a long time until they met each other face to face. It was Halloween night and Zatanna was looking for Robin. Apparently since Robin heard that Zatanna was at the cave he was looking for her too. They bumped into one another in one of the hallways.
"Hey!"
"Hey!" They both greeted each other with laughter at the end.
They both talked at the same time, "I was just looking for you."
They both started to laugh. Robin started to joke, "So I guess eternal grounding is over, right?"
Zatanna sighed, "Well I'm actually still on parole, but I get to spend Halloween with you guys. Or actually just Artemis because we had girls night out."
Robin just nodded his head, "Cool so you had a fun time."
Zatanna clutched her right hand, "Yeah."
Robin was looking at her right arm because it looked like there was some blood in there, "What happened to your hand?"
"Oh um I was doing girls night out as a superhero." She started to smirk.
Robin smiled too because she really has changed a lot from the last time they met, "C'mon lets go to the med bay. I'll patch that up."
Zatanna was still holding her right hand, "I don't know."
"Well it's better for me to see it than your dad."
"Good point."
Robin led her to the med bay and she sat on one of the chairs. She took off her blazer that she had on. It wasn't that much and the cut was just small. He puts some ointment to it. She flinched when it touched her skin. It sort of gotten better when he blew on her hand. When he bandaged her hand she just kept on smiling and looking at him.
Then he sees her looking at him. She turned her head in another direction, but puts it back on him a second later. Then she finally asked, "Why are you doing this for me?"
Robin looked up, "Huh?"
"I mean we just met and then you give me your number. And then the second time we see each other again and you bandage me." She chuckled at the last part.
Robin chuckled too, "Well isn't that what friends do?"
"Yeah." She said back.
"We are friends, right?" He asked.
She nodded, "Friends."
He got done bandaging it and they headed out of the med bay. Then she said, "By the way, the reason I came here was to tell you that I used your R-cycle and then around in the battle it exploded into little bits of pieces. Sorry."
She felt guilty for it. Apparently he wasn't, "Don't worry I got lots of spares. It gets broken a lot of times."
Zatanna sighed in relief, "Okay so you're not mad at me?"
"Nope, I could never get mad at you." Robin smiled at her.
Zatanna tried to hide her blush. Then her phone buzzed. She had a text message from her dad saying that she had to go home right now. She puts her phone back in her pocket.
"Leaving so soon?" He asked.
"Yeah, protective daddy is waiting for me in the house. Thanks." She shyly waved good bye at him.
He tried to play it cool and bobbed his head up saying 'bye' or 'see ya'.
The whole way back home Zatanna was blushing.
...
Everything went a blur to Zatanna's eyes because all she remembered was putting on the helmet and then taking off the helmet. Then she heard lots of screams, but they were mostly hers. She tried her hardest to be strong and not break in front of them. Everyone on the team had helped move her stuff from her home to the cave.
M'gann dropped down one of the boxes, "My room is right next door. If you need anything."
Zatanna was still sad, but she kept strong, "Thanks. I uh could use a little alone time. Okay?"
Artemis said, "Of course."
Artemis and M'gann got out of the door. Robin stopped at the door frame and looked back at her. She didn't know why he was stopping, but she felt like the tears coming down out of her eyes already. Finally, he went out of the room and sat back down on her bed and sobbed slowly.
...
"Why can't I tell her!" Robin was screaming at Batman.
"Robin you know why." Batman gave him a calm tone.
"But she's not the mole and you know that." Dick couldn't stand seeing Zatanna cry or at least shed a single drop. When he had exited her room and the door closed he heard small sobbs coming out of her room. He felt bad for her and he just wanted to punch a wall through every wall he sees.
"Dick there are lots of possibilities and.." He had interupted him.
"I'm going back to the cave." He stomped to the zeta tube that was in the cave.
When he was typing the coordinates to go to the cave he heard Batman say, "Watch what you say."
He just huffed as he entered the zeta tube.
Recognize Robin B01
He went in the cave and saw that everyone either went home or were probably asleep. He went straight to Zatanna's room with no hesitation. He stopped at her door. He was going to knock on the door, but Batman's voices echoed through his head. He couldn't shake them away. Every time he was about to knock on her door the consequences just ring on his head. And then the pressure of how he was going to tell her and how she's going to react to it all. He had to face the fact that he can't do it. Well not at this moment right now. He didn't want to play with her emotions, she was hurting too much. He sighed and went outside to the beach to take a breather.
Then he saw someone sitting on the sand not far from him. It was Zatanna; she had her arms tucking her knees to her chest. She looked so vulnerable. Robin sighed. He went up close to her and asked, "Can I join you?"
Zatanna turned around and Robin could see that she was still crying her eyes out. She just nodded her head because she couldn't get the right words out to speak.
He sat next her and for some seconds they were silent and just watched as the waves were being pushed and pulled away from the shores. Then Zatanna finally talked, but she sniffled first, "What're you doing here? I thought you already left."
"I did, but I came back." He answered slowly.
Zatanna wiped away a tear from here eyes. He went closer to her and put his arm around her shoulders. Zatanna didn't know what to do so she just rested her head on his shoulder. She was really tired and her eyes were sleepy from all that crying. And as if an instinct, Robin nested his head on top of her head like they once did when they were watching that movie and fell asleep together on the couch.
Zatanna mumbled, "Thank you."
Robin heard her and found out she went to sleep. So he mumbled back, "No problem, Zee."
They stayed like that for a couple of minutes until she carried her in bridal style to her room and he kissed her on the four head and then said, "Good night."
He went back to the batcave and found Bruce still looking at the big computer screen. He passed him and said, "I didn't tell her."
He didn't explain anymore and headed to his room.
I just couldn't help it! I want Robin to tell Zatanna his secret I.D, but I've planned for that to happen on a certain date! If you want a clue on what the day Robin is going to reveal Zatanna his secret identity just P.M. me and I'll give you hint. Although a hint is just it. And if I do change my mind about the day then I'll just tell you if it changes. I hope I can see your amazing reviews to what you think about this chapter or this whole story.
Review!
