(A week after the episode Denial)
At Mount Justice's main entrance.
Raven walked into the room and put her hood up hiding her face from her team mates. It had been about a month since she had joined the team and she still felt uncomforitable arround everyone. Well almost everyone she went and stood next to Kid Flash and Robin like she always did while waiting for Red Tornado or Batman to arrive. Artemis glanced over at Raven and frowned to herself. She is always with thoose two whats so special about them I mean yah Robin is her age but Kid Flash is a ignorant selfish, funny, cute… wait cute! Thought Artemis and shook her head she did not want to continue that thought. Launtern Girl saw Artemis shake her head and looked to where her eyes were they were on the three main sidekicks. She rolled her eyes Artemis just needs to get over them yes they are the sidekicks of the original members but it doesn't make them special I mean I'm Green Launtern's sidekick and you don't see me breaking off into their own little clich. She thought and Batman entered the room.
"There is no mission this weekend, go home spend time with your family's." said Batman in his monotone voice and started to walk away.
"So your saying that Young Justice has a actual weekend off no training nothing?" questioned Kid Flash and Batman turned around and nodded.
"SWEET!" cried Kid Flash and high fived Robin. Raven's eyes grew wide in fear then back to her old emotions look.What am I suppost to do my old home was the Tower I've stupid Mountian why couldn't we just all have our own rooms like the Tower where we stayed the whole entire time not everyone going home. She growled to herself and saw that Aquarius was dragging Aqualad towards on of the doors.
"Come on Kalder you have not been home in so long!" she cried and he stopped themselves.
"Okay Ally calm down and we'll go." He said and Ally's eyes grew wide in happiness and they walked up to one of the portals.
"Recognize, Aqualad and Aquarius." Said the computic voice and the two alantians were gone. Launtern Girl walked up to on along with Artemis.
"Wanna hit the mall and then go home." Asked Artemis actually making a attempt to befriend a team mate. Launtern Girl shrugged.
"Egh why not." She said and the computic screen announced their goodbye and then dissapeared
"Well dude's best be heading home got a party to go to." Kid Flash said gloating to M'gann who had just morphed her cloths into her civilian outfit.
"Yeah because that party's your grandpa's." said Raven in her monotone voice and Robin bursted out laughing. Kid Flash glarred at Raven and with the commentary of the computer system left the remaining four members alone. Superboy didn't even mumble a goodbye and headed towards the living area and M'gann waved a goodbye and followed him. Raven turned to Robin and with her aura made her hood come off her face. Robin looked into her amathest eyes and smiled.
"Guess you'll be leaving with Batman." She said in a monotone voice and Robin frowned he was still upset that Batman wanted to talke to Aqualad alone and Raven felt anger and betrayle fly off him in waves.
"I guess, what are you doing though?" he questioned and Raven heard a voice in her head. Don't even bother lying Raven you still have that bond from the Titans said Intelligence and Raven yelled back mentally. Why would I need to lie about what I'm going to do this weekend expecially if it's only Robin and she looked at the Boy Wonder.
"Going to stay here hide from M'gann and Superboy and meditate and read until everyone comes back Monday." She stated in her monotone voice and Robin got a sad look on his face.
"Come on go hang out iwh tWonder Woman don't lock yourself in your room like you did when we were back at the Tower." He said and looked right at Raven. He's right go hang out with Diana you guys can go on a mission like old times! She heard Happy scream gleefully in her head.UHHH no. she replied in her mind.
"I think Wonder Woman's busy with Justice League business Robin." She stated plainly and rested her hands on her hips.
"Well if you say so then." He said and she started to walk towards her room but tripped on a loose tile and was prepaired to fall when two stronge arms caught her. The arms pulled her up and she clung to her saviors chest and saw the R on his uniform Raven looked up her arms still on Robin's chest and met eye to eye with him how she wished she had her uniform on because she felt a huge heated blush fill up her face. But Raven wasn't the only on with a blush Robin had formed on on his arms were wrapped around her wais and she could feel his heart beat quicken under her hand.She's so close go for it!cried his regular teenage boy side.Are you crazy first off your both 13 second she's a valued team member! Cried his superhero side. But before either young hero could move a cough interupted them and their heads snapped in the direction towards the sound and saw Batman and Wonder Woman.
"Come on Robin." Batman ordered and started towards the garage and the two heros let go of one another and Robin ran after Batman but stopped.
"Raven!" he cried and Raven turned towards him and away from where Wonder Woman and her were heading.
"Go have some un for once." He said and blushed again and Raven smiled a small sweet smile.
"Okay." She said and he started running again.
"Oh and Boy Blunder." She called out causeing him to stop at that embarissing nick name.
"Love the new uniform the whole traffic light colors never looked good." She stated smirking and walked into a portal with Wonder Women.
"Recognize Wonder Woman and Raven." Announced the computer and Robin smirked and ran after Batman the good mood Raven just put him in fading as he remembered the events of earlier that evening.
A Few Hours after the return of a failed mission
"I need to talk to Aqualad." Ordered Batman and everyone dispursed except for Robin.
"ALONE." Growled Batman and Robin glarred and stormed off. Everyone didn't need to be a empath like Raven to feel the anger coming off of Robin so everyone just avoided him so his anger
In the Batmobile.
It was dead silence neither Batman nor Robin made a effort to talk, Batman not knowing how to bring anything up and Robin well Robin just didn't want to talk. They pulled into the Batcave and Robin hopped out and ran to the elevator to bring him up into the old clock taking his mask and cape off and meeting Alfred at the top.
"How was your mission Master Dick?" questioned Alfred.
"Don't want to talk about it Alfred." Snapped Dick and stomped to his room and slammed his door the sound echoing through out the mansion. This was going to be a long weekend for him.
At the Gothem Mall.
Irene and Artemis walked through the mall talking about usual stuff mostly about how much Wally iritated Artemis and Irene had nothing to do but listen and listen. Artemis had just started up talking about how Wally had resently ticked her off when she saw Roy and blushed.
"Hey hows about you go into that store and I'll grab us some food from the food court." Suggested Irene.
"Nah I better be heading home anyways, it was nice hanging out with you Irene." Artemis and put her hands in her pockets and started towards the mall entrance once Irene made sure Artemis was far enough she raced to Roy and engulfed him in a hug.
"What are you doing here?" she questioned and looked up at Roy still in his arms.
"Well Wally called me and wanted me to go to his grandpa's birthday party but I asked where you were and he told me you were at the mall, I thought I would drop by and surprise you." He said and smirked and she playfully tapped him on the chest.
"What if Artemis saw you?" she questioned and they dropped their arms and backed away a bit.
"She wasn't going to see us, but anyway can I take you up on that offer for the food court Artemis gave up?" he questioned his blue eyes had hints of mischif in them. Irene rolled her eyes and Roy took her hand making her blush.
"Sure." She said and they walked to the food court and found a table Roy turned around to get them food when he spotted black masked criminals walking into the mall and shot in the air. Roy ran back to Irene grabbed her by the arm and started running until they made it into the hall to the bathroom. Irene looked at Roy and smiled.
"I wonder if Red Arrow will show up?" she joked and Roy smiled.
"He usually does if Launtern Girl is there." He replied and the two heros split up into the empty bathrooms and changed into their hero uniforms.
"Ready?" he questioned as Irene walked out of the girls bathroom putting her hair up.
"You know it." she said and they raced out. Launtern Girl took to the sky and flew towards a criminal gaurding some people and she threw a green fist at him sending him flying into one of the restraunts. Red Arrow started fireing at the other criminals hitting his target everytime but he didn't notice one stupid man running up behind him with hands in fists he was about to strike Red Arrow when a green blast knocked the man into the wall uncautious. Red Arrow turned to see Launtern Girl blow her ring and smirked. Launtern Girl pointed to a run away and smiled.
"I've got him!" she cried and flew up in the air but her ring shut cried out in fear and fell. Red Arrow shot the run away and ran to catch Launtern Girl who shut her eyes tight. Launtern Girl came to a stop and held her arms close to her chest and opened her eyes and saw she was in Red Arrow's arms and blushed in return making Red Arrow blush. They heard police sirens outside and officers running towards the food court.
"Lets go." He said and started running with Launtern Girl in his arms as she wrapped her arms around his neck and thought. This is going to be a great vacation after all.
At a hotel room in Gothem city.
"Sorry we couldn't go to the house kid but I have plans in Gothem." Said Diana as she put on her pearl necklace and Raven opened a eye and saw the outfit the superhero was wearing. It was a black mid thigh spagetti strapped dress with pearl earing and a necklace with black flats.
"Yeah plans with Bruce." Mumbled Raven loud enough for Diana to hear and closed her eye again. Wonder Woman turned to Raven who was meditating about a foot above one of the two beds in the room.
"Just do me a favor and don't bring him back here if your going to get all mushy gushy he does have a mansion ya know." Raven stated and mumbled her mantra over and over again.
"Fine just be in bed at a resonable time and stay in the hotel." She said and walked over to the door and opened it.
"Not my mom." Stated Raven with a giggle at the end and Diana walked out of the room. Raven landed on the bed and opened her eyes and sighed.
"I hate days off." she said and turned the t.v on a flipped through the channels until she heard a crash outside she jumped out of bed and looked out her window to see a lone Robin fighting purse theif. Raven found herself sighing and leaned on her hand on the window still. Look at him fight thoose moves, thoose muscles. She thought and gasped and closed her eyes and reopened them finding herself in Nevermore looking at Intelligents and another emotion in a periwinkle cloak.
"Who's the new one?" she asked and walked over to Intelligence who rolled her eyes.
"Why I'm Love silly." The new emotion giggled and Raven's mouth dropped open and her sweat dropped.
"I'll leave you two alone." Said Intelligence and left.
"Why are you here?" questioned Raven.
"I'm here because your feeling me more and more each day." Replied Loved and put her hands on her hips.
"I'm not in love." Barked Raven. I can't be. She told herself.
"Keep telling yourself that bird girl and I'll just have to pop out the next time you and bird boy are alone together." She said and Raven gasped.
"You wouldn't!" she cried.
"Try me darling I started resurfing during the Titans and I'll come on strong this time young justice is going to be here for a while girl so get used to feeling me." said Love and Raven opened her eyes to see Robin tieing up the purse theif. Robin looked up and saw her in the window and waved to her and she waved back then went to the bathroom.
"I can't love Robin I can't." she repeated to herself then heard a knock on her door. Her stomach dropped and opened it to find Robin… no Robin in civilian cloths and his stupid glasses.
"Didn't interupt you reading did i?" he asked and smiled.
"No, no you didn't" said Raven blushing and Robin walked in.
"I was thinking we could hang until Bats and Wonder Woman are done with their date." He said and jumped on her bed.
"Sure." Love bursted to the surface and said before Raven pulled her back into Nevermore and took her place.
"Great, want to order out?" he asked and held out the hotel phone and Raven nodded her head. Get used to feeling me Raven I'll be around forever. Came Love's voice in her head. And I won't calm down until you admit you love him. She said and Raven blocked her out and sat next to Robin. This was going to be a hard night. Soon the food arrived at the hotel door and Robin got up to get it and saw Alferd instead. Robin walked out so Raven couldn't see him.
"Here is the food you ordered Master Dick and a overnight bag." He said and handed it to Robin.
"Thanks Alfred just don't tell Bruce I'm here unless he comes home before I do." He said and Alfred nodded.
"Good night then Master Richard and tell Miss Raven I said hi." He said and walked away and Robin opened the door to see a empty space where Raven was.
"Rae?" he asked and Raven's stomach went fluttering with happiness when he said her nickname.
"In the bathroom changing." She said and put a white tanktop and black short shorts and a sweatshirt she was going to regret wearing. Diana had gotten it for her last year for christmas it was a Batman and Robin sweatshirt black with the Bat and a R on it she actually like it it was warm and comforitable and she wasn't going to bother not being comfty if she had to deal with Robin all night.
"Okay well that was my friend he dropped off a bag for me just don't come out I'll change." He responded as Raven was about to reach for the door. Raven looked at herself in the mirror she had no makeup on and her hair was staticy.That won't do Rae-Rae. Called Love inside of her head and Raven growled back.i'll look whatever way I want. And sighed hopefully shutting the emotion up.Want me to come out Raven I don't think so, if I were you I would put some eye makeup on a brush your hair.responded Love and Raven listened then Intelligence spoke up. We have quieted her for now Raven she won't speak for the rest of the night we'll make sure of that Rage and Bravery are keeping her scared. And Raven sighed .
"Okay Rae I'm done." Cried Robin and Raven walked out and zippered her sweatshirt just above her breasts and fought to keep back a blush, Robin was in Red boxers and a sweatshirt that was open all the way she gulped and sat on the bed.Look at his abs he's so well toned. She thought and didn't even stop until she realized she was staring as Robin was flipping threw the t.v list looking for a movie to rent. Raven got up and went to the food passing infront of Robin brushing her arm on his chest the two teens both shivered.i have to have sleepover things with Raven more often thoose pj's are hot and I love the sweatshirt. Robin then gave up for looking for a movie and just turned on a t.v station and his mask grew wide.
"No way." He said and Raven walked over with a bowl full of soup for the both of them and then her eyes widened as well it was a Batman cartoon.
"Were so watching this." Spoke Robin and started eating his soup. It was about fifteen minutes into the t.v episode and the teens had finished their soup.
"This is so inacurate." He cried out and then a Robin jumped on the sceen in a traffic light uniform. Raven laughed.
"What?" challenged Robin and Raven looked at him.
"They so got your uniform green yellow red and dorky all over." She said and laughed.
"I'm going to make you pay for that." Said Robin and tackled her they wrestled for a while unill Robin landed ontop of her stradling her legs pinning her arms to the bed and they both breathed heavily. Raven and Robin blushed.Just imagin what he would feel like without cloths on said Love and Raven shook her off and looked up at Robin she leaned her head up closing the distance between her and Robin. Robin mimiced her movement and their lips a inch away when the door handle started to jingle they paniced and Robin got off of Raven and they scrambled to the head board of the bed and Raven rested her head on Robin's shoulder waiting for the door to be opened but when the sound of a door opening wasn't their hotel room door Robin yawned and snuggled up to Robin's warm body and pulled the covers over watched the rest of the Batman episode and a Justice League t.v show started up.
"Hey Raven…" started Robin and looked at a asleep Raven on his shoulder. He wrapped his arm around her and she snuggled closer to him. Robin smiled and turned back to the television and the clock said 11:30 p.m Robin started giving into the sleep that was dragging him under he tried to fight it but this was the only fight he enjoyed losing.
2:00a.m
Diana opened her hotel room.
"Sorry Diana for coming over instead of just dropping you off, Dick wasn't at the mansion." Said Bruce walking into the hotel behind Diana.
"It's okay Bruce I'm sure Raven might have a idea to where her…."started Diana and turned her attention to Raven's bed and her mouth practically dropped to the floor at the sight.
"Diana?" questioned Bruce and walked up beside her and smirked at the sight. Raven was asleep on Robin's bare chest her sweatshirt opened all the way her hand on his stomach covering up his belly button. Robin's right arm was hugging Raven to him it remaining on her waist surely to make sure she didn't move or dissapear from his grasp. Bruce walked over but was stopped by a hand on his arm.
"Bruce can't we just let them be?" questioned Diana.
"If Robin wakes up and forgets he's not in the manor he'll take his mask off and besides their thirteen." Said Bruce.
"No their fourteen Dick's birthday was a month ago, Raven's is today." Stated Diana.
"Their fourteen it would be an occward morning." He said and picked Richard up in his arms like he was a child who had just fallen asleep in the car from a long exciting day.
"I'll see you tomorrow Diana." He said and kissed her on the lips.
"Goodnight Bruce." She said and he walked out of the hotel room. Diana walked into the bathroom took a shower and got into her pj's and looked at Raven she was in the same position she was when Bruce removed Dick. She smiled to herself and drifted into a light sleep. For once her protégé was happy.
