Aquarian17: Too fluffy? anyways thanks for reviewing
Daughter of a demon: perhaps . . . I love Cyborg as the overprotective big brother. He's just too funny. It might take him a while since Robin is not Ms. Talkative on the phone.
AtlantaGeorgia: thank you

Raven looked herself over in the mirror and growled in frustration. She was dressed in a navy blue and white plaid spaghetti strapped dress with an empire waist matched with a robin egg's blue sweater. On her feet she wore black pointed toed pumps. Her hair was piled on top of her head into a messy bun. She looked good; however, she missed her normal clothes . . . especially her cloak. She yearned for the comfort that her costume brought her. Today particularly, Raven wanted a semblance of the comforts of home.
She had woken up confused and disoriented having last remembered being in the car with Robin. The idea of how he got her back and in her room nearly made her blush. She could just picture Robin carrying her passed out form. She had certainly underestimated how tired she was and ended up in a rather awkward situation. Robin of course said nothing on that matter when she finally rose from her bed. Instead, he plunged into the details of their schedule for the day. The previous night had been difficult enough without them going into the real lion's den . . . Gotham's Country Club. Raven visibly shivered at the thought. Today was definitely not going to be one of her favorites.
"Raven, are you ready yet?" Robin asked through the closed door. Inhaling deeply and slowly letting the air out Raven walked to the door and opened it.
"Yes, I'm ready." She said in a deadpan voice. Robin of course looked handsome in his gray dress suit and dark navy tie. In that way they almost matched. He smiled as he slowly took in her attire in with approval.
"Raven . . . you look stunning." He declared and offered his arm. Raven blushed slightly and accepted his arm. She still was not used to his side of Robin . . . the chivalrous gentlemen. The jury was still out on whether she liked it or hated it.
"Thank you, you look quite handsome." She said honestly as he began to guide her out of their penthouse.
It did not take long in Raven's eyes for their car to slowly come to a stop in front of a massive wrought iron gate of the country club. Raven carefully took in the beauty and elegance of the ancient and handmade gate. It seemed out of place guarding the breeding ground of the wealthy and snobby. The encounter with the gaggle of blonds the previous night had taught Raven that simply because she was a newcomer did not mean they would take it easy on her.
Their driver rolled down his window and announced to a screen that the Grayson' requested admittance. Apparently, despite the fact that he lived hours away in Jump City Robin was completely up to date with his dues. At the end of the day Raven would also have her very own shinny plastic membership card. Not that she had any intention to ever return to the Country Club unless otherwise dragged by Robin. Suddenly a beep emitted from the gates and they slowly groaned open and their driver began to approach the main building.
Gotham's Country Club was a massive estate that included a sizeable gold course, tennis court, a fully operational spa, indoor and outdoor swimming pools, a fancy dining facility, and the piece de résistance a library housing over sixty thousand books . Raven's skin hummed with excitement at the mere thought of possibly going to the library, but she knew that was probably not an option. Their car stopped at the brilliantly white main building. Soon after Raven care around and opened her door.
"You ready Mrs. Grayson?" he asked with a sparkle in his eyes. Raven glared at him sternly as she got out of the car. He wrapped her arm around his a second later and Robin began to guide Raven inside.
Raven wondered what Robin would do when the mission was over. So many people who knew his true identity now thought she was his wife. Would he tell them they got a divorce? That thought disturbed Raven and she had no idea as to why. She did not like the idea of giving up everything she had gained so far in their mission. She dreaded when they would have to return to the Tower and she would not be as close to Robin. She would no longer enjoy his little touches because he would not make them. The ring on her finger felt too comfortable and Raven seriously doubted whether they could to back to before.
Robin glanced back as if sensing her turmoil through their bond. He opened the tall gold door to the building and held it open for her. Inside was bright and expensive. The floor was marble and walls held gold sconces that made the room even more shinning. An oval marble receptionist desk was directly in front of them. Bouquets of flowers stood on ivory pedestals and brought splashes of color into the foyer. Before Raven could approach the desk Robin grabbed her arm and pulled him close and whispered into her ear.
"Are you alright?" he asked softly while his breath tickled her ear. Raven did not answer, but merely nodded. Time passed and her eventually let go of her arm and kissed her on the cheek. Robin then approached the desk all full of smiles. Raven for her part tried desperately to collect herself together and start playing her part.
I wanted to update quickly and put up the next chapter. you know get the ball really rolling. Anyways this is more of a set up chapter to kind of build to future action. Raven has a sad moment, but I think it shows how much she is enjoying having Robin constantly at her side. I'm shure that Robin is going to steal some more kisses from Raven in the futire and our villian might just strike again. I rpimise you'll never see the ending comming! And its a good one, but that's a long time from now. So please review and keep reading my story.
