-Reasons for a Fiery Temper-

"Done," Port sighs placing his pencil down and stretching his back.

"You finally finished, Sweetie?" Electra asked looking over at Port from the couch.

"Yeah, I love these crossword puzzles a lot."

"Do you love them more than me?" Electra asked suddenly behind Port.

"What… no of course not."

"You said that way too quickly. You're trying to cover it up. You do love those puzzles more than me?" Electra exclaimed pointing a finger at Port.

"What no I don't," Port exclaimed waving his hands in front of him in defense.

"Yes you do."

"No I don't."

"Yes you do."

"No I don't."

"Oh really prove it," Electra smirked.

Port smiles deviously and pulls her close his arm around her waist. "If you say so." He kisses her deeply causing her to close her eyes and her leg to pop up. She smiles and runs her fingers through his hair letting them come to rest on his shoulders.

"That proved it," she said breathlessly.

"I thought it might."

Robin and Starfire walk into the room, Starfire pining over Robin who was cradling his hand. Port and Electra walk over to see what is going on. Port's eyes widen and Electra covers her mouth stifling a gasp.

"What happened to your hand?" Electra cried.

"Phoenix happened that's what," Robin answered pulling of his glove gingerly taking some flesh with the leather.

"Why would friend Phoenix burn your hand, Robin?" Starfire inquired beginning to wrap Robin's hand in gauze.

"Well whatever the reason was you must have deserved it," Port retorted.

"All I did was do a background check on him."

"Yep you deserved it," Port responded shaking his head.

"What do you mean Robin deserved it?" Starfrie asked her voice becoming very harsh.

Setting his pencil down Port leaned back his chair and closed his eyes rubbing his temples. He stood up disappeared and reappeared holding a small box in his hands. He walked back over to the table he was doing his crossword puzzle at and set it down opening it.

"Phoenix is gonna kill me for showing you all this but I need to explain why he got so angry with Robin," Port said as he began pulling things out of the box.

Starfire, Robin, and Electra crowded around Port as he began placing things around the box. There was a few old photos, a yearbook, and a few newspaper clippings. Starfire picked up one of the old photos and looked at it curiously.

"These are very old."

"Yes they are, Starfire," Port replied taking the photograph from Starfire and looking at it for a moment. "This picture was taken shortly after Phoenix and I met. It was also right after the grass fire that caused nearly the entire city to hate him."

The other Titans looked at each other and their faces fell. None of them had realized that Phoenix had gone through so much because an accident.

"You see Phoenix and I knew each other from school, but we never hung out. It wasn't until after I heard about the accident that I realized he and I were more alike than we thought. I already knew that I had powers, but mine weren't as destructive as his. It took some time to persuade him, but I finally managed to get him to play with me and we became fast friends after I showed him my powers we became even better friends."

"So the grass fire really wasn't his fault then," Robin said voicing his realization.

"That's right," Port nodded. "His powers just manifested in the wrong place and at the wrong time."

"No wonder her got so angry with you, Robin," Electra said picking up one of the newspaper articles. "He must have thought you were accusing him of having actually started the fire on purpose."

"But that still does not give Phoenix the right to harm Robin," Starfire pouted beginning to wrap Robin's hand with a bandage.

"No, Starfire, I was in the wrong this time," Robin responded giving her a comforting smile. "I must have sounded like I was accusing him of causing the fire. I should have just asked him what had happened."

The door opened suddenly and Port began to frantically put everything away. It was only Beast Boy and Cyborg fighting about what they should have had put on the pizza they had ordered. Cyborg was shouting the all meat supreme special, while Beast Boy kept saying the ultra veggie special. Port took a deep breathe and sighed in relief at the sight of the two.

"Man I thought you guys were Phoenix," Port said putting the rest of the things he was showing to the other three Titans.

"Why would you think that these two were me," came Phoenix's voice from behind Beast Boy and Cyborg.

"OH CRAP," Port shouted and disappeared with the box of stuff.

"What's with him?" Phoenix asked sitting down across the table from the other Titans.

"He uh… well um… uh," all the Electra, Robin, and Starfire stammered at once.

"He probably forgot the time and went to go get the pizzas," Cyborg answered realizing that something was going on.

"Robin, I want to apologize about earlier."

"You don't have too," Robin replied shaking his head.

"I shouldn't have flown off the handle like that."

"You must have had a good reason," Starfire chimed in.

"Not really, I was just thinking about something at Robin brought up a bad memory and I was already angry at the time so I just blew up at him."

"Yeah, literally," Robin said ruefully, rubbing his hand slightly.

Port reappeared carrying a large stack of pizzas. Cyborg and Beast Boy lunged at him like a pack of wild animals. The team ate in silence for a little while until Beast Boy started to try and make everyone laugh by trying to eat five slices of pizza at once. An hour later Beast Boy said he was going out to visit her. Phoenix looked around at the solemn faces of the other Titans. Everyone else got up after that and when about their own business and Phoenix headed back upstairs to check on Raven.

-In the Infermary-

"Phoenix?" Raven whispered softly looking around slightly having just awoken.

"I'm right here Raven," Phoenix answered taking Raven's hand in his and giving it a soft squeeze.

"Did anything interesting happen while I was resting?"

"Yeah I guess you could say that," Phoenix answered with a sarcastic laugh.

"Phoenix, what did you do?" Raven asked raising an eyebrow.

"I just stirred up a little trouble is all."

"What am I going to do with you?"

"Anything you want," Phoenix replied whispering in her ear causing her to blush.
