And for everybody, who was already asking: ´Is that really a Robin/Starfire story?´ Here is the answer: Yes, it is. And this chapter is going to proof it a bit. Hope, that every Rob/Star fan outside there is enjoynig it, although it isn´t really happening anything.

TTTTTTT

Chapter ten: Disappointment

Somebody shook my body heavily. But I didn´t want to wake up. I was far to tierd and my whole body felt, like somebody drove over it with a car.

I tried to hold my eyes closed and tried to avoit the pain everywhere.

"Kori…! Kori…! Girl, wake up!" I heard somebody scream nexz to me.

It was frantic screaming...

Slowly I opened my eyes and looked in Tera's scared face.

She was kneeling next to my bed on the ground, in her uniform.

But Tera wasn't the only one in the room.

Richard and Christy where her, too…standing next to Tera.

I tried to sit up, but my head hurt terribly.

Groaning I laid my hand on it and laid back down.

Where were I anyway?

I looked around.

…, in my room, in my bed, covered by blankets and like it felt still in my underwear.

I can't remember that I went to bed last night…after…

After Kid Flash visited me.

My eyes shoot open. Was that just a dream? Was he really here, last night?

Out of the corner of my eyes I saw the key. So…it was true…

Richard sat now on my bed, or should I say Nightwing, while he wore the uniform?

"Kori…, what's wrong with you? Tera found you on the ground, next to the window…" he said with a concered voice and one of his hand laid on my one, which wasn´t still holding my head.

What should I say? If it was true, I promised Wally, I wouldn't tell anybody that he was here…

I hope this all was just a dream and I would wake up any minute...

"Beast Boy saw you yesterday…He said you looked horrible. And you still look a bit…different. Did you collapse because of this Daniel?" asked Tera with anger staining her voice.

Perfect…, there was a good reason, why I was like this. So I wouldn't have to lie…not really…

After some seconds of silent I nodded.

"Ye-Yes that's right…"

My eyes dropped to the ground, before I lifted them again, looking by accident into Nightwing´s mask.

For that moment I wondered which colour was behind this white and black piece of fabric.

He never took of his mask or sun glasses…, and nobody knew what his real eye colour was.

Only Babs knew. But she promised him, not to tell anybody.

I felt myself blush and his eyes deeply looking into mine.

Was he trying to find something in them?

Maybe he felt that I wasn't telling them the whole truth...

I had to hide it..., just a bit longer..., but I wasn't a good liar...

So instead I looked to Christy.

She had her arms crossed and looked visibly angry.

Of course she did…

Nightwing cared about me and he had his back to her.

Wait..., he was caring about ME...

Isn't it cute...?

I mean, he isn't my boyfriend anymore and I am not one of the Titans, but it wasn't mattering for him...

For now...

Then I looked to Tera.

"Where are the others?"

I desperately tried to ignore the other two.

But the fact that I could still feel his eyes on me and that his hand was laing on mine wasn´t making any easier. Why wasn't he looking to his dear Christy?!

I felt so nervous…

"…at the supermarket. The boys ate last night our refrigerator empty. You can be happy that Ryan isn't here right now. After Gar told us, how he met you, after you came home, wanted Ryan to run up here. Rachel held him back. It was like she knew, what happened to you." She answered after some time.

"You won´t tell us, what happened, won´t you?" asked Nightwing.

I shook my head.

"Will you tell anybody?" came it from Terra.

Again I shook my head.

I heard Nightwing sigh sadly.

"Christy and I will go downstairs…Will you stay here, Terra?"

She nodded silently.

Nightwing got up and made his way out of my room, followed by his girlfriend.

After the door closed, I looked to Terra.

Her blue eyes were filled with disappointment.

"Why won't you tell me?"

She wasn't screaming, but her voice was louder then it should.

"Tera, please…listen…"

"No! You are the one who is listening! I thought we are best friends! That we could tell each other everything!"

Okay…now she was screaming…

"You can't tell me, that you would tell me everything! You wouldn't understand-"

"-that my very best friend got hurt very bad by some kind of fucking fool! What if he raped you? What if you are pregnant now? What do you want to do now?"

I wouldn't have given him the chance to rape me..., although he nearly did...

"You don't even try to listen!"

Of course…Tera had all right to be angry and disappointed…

But she didn't have to make any drama out of it….

"Kori…"I heard her sigh.

"Why are you making it so hard for us to protect you?"

"PROTECT!" ups…that shouldn't come out loud, and not like that…

But I was terribly angry now. She can´t expect from me, that I tell everything!

Tera closed her eyes and hid her face in her palms.

"God…, did I say this out loud…Kori-"

"Protect? What do you mean with ´making it so hard for us to protect you´? I'm not…the Queen of England. She needs to be protected. Not me! I can take of myself very well!"

"Oh excuse me Miss ´I am such an adult´. Who is the one, who had hurt her lip and hand? Who is the one, who nearly got killed by running-"she stopped herself and slapped a hand over her mouth.

I knew exactly what she wanted to say.

´Who is the one, who nearly got killed by running in Slade´s laser…´

Now I was disappointed…

How could she bring THIS up again?

"Excuse me…" she mumbled through her hand.

I was to shocked to say anything.

Then the door opened and Raven got in.

"Hey Kori. I am here to heal you." She said calmly.

Was she trying to avoid the things, which just happened?

Terra nodded, stood up and without looking into my eyes, she left.

It hurt bad…

"Kori?" came Ravens voice.

"Should I bring her back?"

I shook my head, not leaving the door with my eyes.

"No…I will talk later with her…"

TTTTTTT

I hope you all liked the chapter, that I will read some reviews.

I am looking forward to listen from you.
