Raven wrapped her arms tightly around herself as she gazed up at dim silvery stars. That was the problem with cities the stars were never bright, of course who could compete with the blaze of the city lights. Raven tried desperately to sort out her confused feelings. She knew she needed to separate fiction from fact. However, it was hard for her to explain away Robin's actions any longer . . . or the feelings she could sense from him. An arm snaked around her waist jostled her mind back to the present. Before she could even react to the arm a warm masculine body pushed against hers. Raven could feel Robin's warm breath tickling the back of her neck and he bent to whisper in her ear.

"We have a job to do. Lets go inside and have a dance." he said and was already pulling her away from the balcony.

"How would us dancing be work?" Raven demanded trying to dig her heals and remain where she was, however, Robin was physically stronger then she so Raven had no choice but to follow him. The truth was that she had no desire to dance. She could handle herself just fine if it was club like dancing, but what the couples were doing looked like ballroom dancing. Robin paused just before they reached the dance floor and for a second Raven thought that he had only been joking about the dancing.

"Don't worry," he said with a charming wink. "Just follow my lead." That was apparently all the warning she was going to get because a moment later she and Robin were dancing. Slowly Raven felt her fears about dancing fade away once she realized how good he was. Raven was amazed that he was skillful enough to lead wonderfully, make her look good, and keep her from stepping on his toes. To top it off Robin never looked where they were twirling and his eyes remained intent on hers. He was also smiling . . . it was a soft childish grin like a boy would have if he had given his first kiss.

"You are really good at this Richard. I can't wait to tell the others." Raven teased. After she made her comment, Raven instantly regretted it because that innocent smile disappeared and was replaced by a look of pure mischief.

"You could do that Raven," Robin said and paused dramatically. Raven then felt herself fall backwards and into his arms. "But then I will have to tell them about this." Robin said and his lips descended onto hers fiercely and passionately. It was a kiss that no girl could resist, therefore, Raven physically responded without her brain's knowledge or consent. She kissed him back just as fervently and her fingers buried themselves within his hair. However, the feel of Robin's tongue slip into her mouth slammed Raven back into reality and her body went ridged.

Robin had not noticed for a few seconds but when he did he removed his mouth from hers and gave Raven a triumphant and smug look. Heat flared throughout her body as she blushed. Emotions were ramped since she was feeling so much at one time. The lights in the ballroom flickered and tables rattled. She was caught and Raven wanted nothing more then to storm out of the room and crawl into her bed at the Tower and never come out again. However, if she was going to salvage the situation she had to act and do it fast. Therefore, she forcibly relaxed her body and breathed in deeply and ignored her emotions even though happy was jumping up and down with joy and love was floating about in a lovesick manner. Raven managed to put the lid safely back on Nevermore. Next, she pushed Robin away and stood firmly on her own two feet. His smug expression was still present only it was slightly marred by his confusion in her current calm state.

"Thank you for the dance, dear. I'm going to use the restroom. I'll be out in a minute," Raven said in her typical deadpan voice. Then she turned and slowly proceeded to the women's bathroom. The second she heard the door close firmly behind her she threw herself into a bathroom stall and locked the door. Never before in her entire life had she ever felt so . . . afraid was not right because she did not do fear. There had to be some other explanation as to why Robin could make her feel so . . . so . . . not herself. That was the best way to explain it. She was a half demon who fought with countless evils and villains. Then why did his touch make her mind go pleasantly blank so that she could only see him . . . only feel him.

"Raven get hold of yourself," she muttered softly. She had to put an end to this once and for all. Either Robin wanted her . . . or he was cruelly teasing her. Raven knew he was not capable of hurting her deliberately. Raven shook her head. It was all too much to deal with now while they were on a mission. That came first before her doubts or suspicions. She needed to focus on the mission and keeping up her role in that mission, which was probably all Robin was doing. It's not like he was kissing her because he wanted her right? It was part of the act . . . the marriage act. But if that was true then why was her heart screaming something different? Raven's thoughts were interrupted by the sound of the bathroom door opening followed by the loud clicking of heals.

"Did you see Richard Grayson tonight?" a high pitched woman asked. Raven interest perked up at the mention of Robin.

"Yeah . . . he was with that woman. My husband told me she's his new wife." Another voice said. This one was deeper and easier on the ears.

"She was pleasant looking . . . a little on the pale side if you ask me. Tasha . . . didn't you date Richard before getting married?" a third woman asked.

"Yes, we dated. I wish sometimes I married him instead . . . he's loaded from his father, Bruce Wayne. That's probably why she married him the little skinny gold digger." The high pitched woman said. Raven took a deep breath to calm down the rage just waiting to unleash itself. After taking that moment she unlocked her stall door and let it slowly swing open. The three women were all blondes with over the top dresses and jewelry. Each was wearing more diamonds then Tiffany & Co. They all turned simultaneously and stared at her with mouths hanging wide open in shock. Raven smiled and walked up to an empty sink between two of them and quickly washed her hands. The only sound that could be heard was the running of the water in the facet. Raven then grabbed a towel and began drying her hands. After throwing it away she turned and looked at each girl directly in their face.

"Actually, I married him because he was great in bed." She declared before slowly sauntering out of the bathroom.


Sorry for the long wait. I have just been . . .well with my friends like 24/7. They keep dragging me away from my computer. Well the update is here now. So what do you think? I find it hard to name a favorite part . . . I love Raven and Robin's kiss scene and her small meltdown over it. Raven keeps trying to deny what she knows is true. And what of Robin? What does he think of Raven's response to his kiss? I loved the bathroom scene and Raven's last words. I have to say that scene has been planed for a long time. It think it was exactly the kind of remark she would say . . . so long as Robin was not present. Go Raven you teach those blonde! (No offense to blondes since I am blonde . . . artifically). Well I hope you enjoyed this chapter and please review!
