Chapter 11: Face Off

Layla's POV

"What the hell are you doing here, Drake?" Damian yells, about to attack Red Robin, but I grab his shoulder and pull him back.

"Robin, calm yourself. Let's not spill blood until we know why they're here."

"Red, you don't understand…" Damian says.

"I do understand, but since we are staying here we will need our team, can you please call them?" I ask, and I feel Damian relax and leave to make the call.

"Now, why are you here?" I ask Raven.

"Well, you see…" Red Robin begins, but I stop him.

"I didn't ask you. I know who you are, so I know not to trust you. And as I was asking, Raven; why are you here?"

"I sensed a strong energy of magic that I didn't know of, so we came to see what it was." She answers calmly.

"I see, what did the energy feel like? I may be of help." I ask.

"It dark, but light at the same time. Stronger than my own magic." She admits.

"Rave, is that possible?" Beast Boy asks.

"Well, Raven I think you picked up on my magic. Sorry to cause you the scare and waste your time coming down here." I say as Damian walks in soon after.

"And how do we know you're not a bad guy?" Beast Boy yells, but I just smile under my mask before slowly removing it, the hood following soon after.

"Why don't you ask your restaurant named leader?" I say, smirking when I hear him gasp.

"L.A.?" He asks and I glare at him.

"That isn't her name, Drake!" Damian yells, almost ready to attack Tim, but I quickly wrap my crackling red around him.

"Relax Robin, it's fine. I can handle Tim" I say softly, in korean.

"Hey! That's isn't fair!" Beast Boy yells.

"What isn't?" I ask.

"I didn't understand a word of what you just said!" He yells again, adding a pout.

"I am sorry, force of habit. Anyway, Drake. Do not tell Batman my identity. I don't want him tailing my every move."

"And if I do tell him?" He answers snubby, but I just smirk as I appear in front of him and push him to a wall, quickly turning my crackle into dagger.

"Then I will make you forget all of this, plus make you Damian's slave. Do not test me Drake. I am still very crossed with how you treated Steph." I growl out as I let him fall. "Now, are we clear?" I ask sharply.

"Yes madam." He spits out.

"Great!" I happily cheer, before turning to the rest of his team. "So, do you need anything else?" I ask.

"I think we are done, but if you ever need anything, call the Titans." Raven says, leaving the room.

"Yeah, and we won't even bring Tim with us." Beast Boy adds jokingly as he follows everyone out with Superboy carry Drake out.

"Well, that was fun. When will the team be here?"

"In a day's time, Malaika. Until then, we have other plans." He says.

"We do?" I ask, and he nods.

"Yes, you will find everything you need in your room." Damian says before leaving. I feel my head cock to the side a little bit, but I do what Damian says and head over to my bedroom, when I enter I find an outfit laid out of the bed, and a pair of flats on the floor. I smile a little bit as I start to change into the knee length blue dress with a lace on the top and sleeves. I slip into the flats and quickly use my magic to do my makeup and hair. I smile as I quickly the room to find Damian in a nice suit and bow tie.

"Damian, why the fancy getup? Where are we going?" I ask softly as Damian takes my hand and leads me to a room that has been transformed into dinner room. "Damian...I don't know what to sa…" I begin, but before I can continue Damian crashes his lips onto mine. After a few moments he pulls away.

"Sorry, but I had to get that out of the way. I thought it would be easier than telling you how I feel."

"Damian…" I watch his face fall. "...It took you long enough!" I yell. "Since the beginning of high school I have been waiting for you to kiss me." I say, and Damian breaks out into a smirk.

"I guess I made you get dressed up for nothing. I knew I should not have taken Grayson's advice. It was utterly pointless." He mutters as I pull him close and kiss him softly. Unless the other kiss, this one was made with gentleness and love, while the first was quick and full of lust and passion. I pull away and softly smile.

"The thought still counts, Damian."

"That it does, Malaika."

I am sorry that this chapter is so short, but I did get our two lovebirds together, and set up a friendship to form between the two teams. I promise I will try to update, but I am running low on ideas for this story, so if any of you lovely readers have any ideas on what should happen next please tell me.
