Chapter 4: Libraries and Ice Cream

Starfire touched down on the green grass the carpeted the park. She spotted 'Dick' sitting on a park bench a few feet away. She smirked to herself. After 'Dick' had walked her home last night she had sat down and pondered his likeness to Robin.

Their similarities went far beyond just looks. 'Dick's' understanding attitude and protective nature was identical to Robin's. And that smile... Only one person was blessed with such an amazingly gorgeous smile.

Robin.

So she had gotten up early that morning and gone to library to seek answers.

And she had found exactly what she was looking for.



Starfire found herself sitting in front of a large computer in Gotham's public library. She had arrived moments before and asked if the lady at the desk (who looked rather old and was sure to have been around for awhile) if the names Dick and Robin, as in Batman and Robin, meant anything to her. The lady and looked at her, astonished, before beginning to talk at a very fast pace.

She had led her to a computer and began scrolling through newspaper articles. She stopped moments later with a cry of 'Ah! Here it is!' and left Starfire to stare at the screen. Immediately a headline written in bold caught her attention.

"Is Gotham's Greatest Due Really Going to Split?"

The title sparked her interest right away and she continued reading.

"It's true folks. After almost 6 years of fighting side by side Batman aka Bruce Wayne is letting his sidekick Robin aka Dick Garrison" Starfire's eyes widened at the name, "go off on his own. When questioned the superhero/millionaire had this to say, "It's time to let the Robin spread his wings. Dick's a great kid and I know he'll be fine on his own. He deserves the chance to lead and I know he'll do his best." That's right folks. What you've heard is true. It seems that Gotham's Robin is finally ready to fly solo. The best of luck Robin, Gotham is with you."

But it was what she saw next the sealed her decision. Next to the article was a picture of Batman and Robin standing next to each other. And underneath it was a picture of Bruce Wayne and Dick Garrison...

Who was wearing the exact same outfit the Dick from last night had been wearing.

Bingo! She had her Robin. Noticing that it was almost noon she quickly got up and left the library, after informing the lady that she had been most helpful.

It was 11:50 when she finally stepped onto the sidewalk. Even if she flew she would be a little late. She hoped 'Dick' wouldn't mind. With that she took off, flying towards the park as fast as she could.



Now she was 99 sure that the Dick sitting on the bench was her Robin. All she had to do was play it cool for a while.

She took a deep breath and began to walk towards him.

Robin heard footsteps approaching. He looked up to see Starfire walking towards him. She was in a shorts and a white spaghetti strap tank top. She reached him and gave him a smile.

"I am sorry I am late. I hope you did not have to wait to long."

Robin shook his head. "Not at all. I'm glad you could come."

"I said I would be here did I not?"

Robin smiled. "Yeah you did."

"So what you like to do friend Dick."

Robin gulped, he really didn't like the way she was saying his name.

"I was thinking we could get some ice cream."

Her devilish grinned didn't go unnoticed.

"I am more in the mood for some cotton candy."

"I am more in the mood for some cotton candy."

She laughed silently as he paled.

Robin is getting nervous...that is good.

candy? I don't think they have that here."

She pretended to be disappointed and looked down at the ground. When she looked back up she saw that he must have regained his composure because he didn't look nervous anymore.

"Are you certain that is so?"

He smiled. "Positive."

She was floored. He...it...it was Robin! She could barely suppress the smile and laugh that threatened to come out.

"Well then...ice cream sounds delicious.

She grabbed his hand and began running to the ice cream cart.

Robin followed after her as she ran, laughing the whole way.

"Wait up Star!"

She turned to him a stuck out her tongue playfully before continuing to run.

When they reached the cart he order two cones and handed Starfire hers.

"Come on let's go find a bench to sit on."

They walked out around until they found a bench that faced the small pond and sat there to enjoy the view. They ate in peaceful silence watching the ducks swim back and forth across the clear water.

Robin popped the last of his cone into his mouth and turned to Starfire, who was chewing the last of hers. He wondered briefly what they would do now until Starfire turned to face him.

"Tell me, why is it that you came to Gotham Robin?"
