Chapter Eight :: Secret Rendezvous
The next morning Cyborg woke up and went to Robin's room. Intent on asking what had happened the night before. Robin was his best friend. He thought he would be able to tell him if something was going on.
He knocked on Robin's door but there wasn't an answer. He opened the door and looked in.
"Rob?" No answer, Robin wasn't in his room.
Cyborg went off to the kitchen, wondering where Robin might be at.
The kitchen door hissed open.
"So Starfire, Maybe we could... erm... go have dinner tonight... together... just you and me?"
"Of course friend Beast Boy! I would love to join you for a dinner!" Starfire replied excitedly.
Cyborg pretended not to hear what was going on. He knew BB had a thing for Star and could only wish him the best of luck, but as himself would normally make fun of him in a moment like this.
"Hey, you guys seen Robin today?" Cyborg asked the other two.
"Naw, he hasn't gotten..." BB stopped short. The kitchen door hissed open and in walked an overly happy Robin who looked like he had put his clothing on too quickly that morning.
"Hey Rob! Where ya been?" Cyborg approached him. "Hey dude, I need to talk to you ok?"
"Sorry Cyborg, too busy to talk now, maybe later" Robin responded while walking into the elevator. He was heading down to the training course to burn some energy and as a good way to change the subject. He had a feeling he knew what Cyborg was going to talk to him about, and he just couldn't tell him yet.
The kitchen door hissed open and in walked Raven. She headed straight for the tea kettle to make her morning tea. She kept her eyes away from everyone and the hood to her cloak covering her face. She was blushing badly and didn't want anyone to see.
The next few days went by without much confrontation. Cyborg kept trying to corner Robin and ask what had happened, but Robin always could make up an excuse. It was easy to keep Star and BB out of the mix because they were too giddy after their date. Apparently, BB kissed her goodnight when he walked her to her bedroom after their date and they had been spending a lot of time together since.
Robin and Raven were doing great at keeping their meetings a secret. The hardest part was keeping Cyborg from asking too many questions. They would go up to the roof to talk, spend time together in each other's rooms, and sneak a kiss or two behind a corner. They would hold hands when no one was looking. They spent most of their time in Raven's room. Cyborg's room was next to Robin's so they had to be careful in case he heard them spending time together.
