Let Me Dream: Part Twenty-two - Send me home
Robin couldn't concentrate in class. His mind was twisted in a whirlwind of thoughts and emotions. He was trying to figure out what he could say to Raven to make it up to her, but the better part of logic told him to leave her alone. She would probably cool off with time. He didn't realize that his teacher had been addressing him until she rapped her knuckles on his desk.
"Excuse me? Are you with us today Mr. Grayson?" Robin cringed, he hated being called Mr. Grayson even more than he hated being called Dick.
"I don't feel well." He responded flatly hoping it would get him out of class. The teacher's face quickly molded into one of sympathy.
"Do you need to go to the health room? I can write you a pass.."
"Yeah, that would be good."
Robin breathed a sigh of relief as he stood out in the hallway clutching the pass. He did not have to deal with school as a Titan and he could not stand that he had to suffer through it here.
"Kids should not be subjected to such torture.." He muttered to himself as he made his way to the health room. The hallways were deserted so it gave him plenty of time to really think. He decided that he was going to really win over Starfire the next time he saw her. He would be sweet and know all the right things to say. He smiled thinking that he had more than enough time to plan out exactly what to say to win her heart. He probably wouldn't see her for at least a few days. He arrived at the health room without any problem and opened the door. He lost his smile, and his confidence quickly when he found Star sitting on one of the benches with an ice pack held to her ankle.
"It is painful yes, but I should be fine. This ice is very helpful thank you." Star smiled at the nurse that was helping her before her eyes lit up as she realized someone had entered the room. She looked over to see who it was and her eyes lost their new found glow. Robin swallowed nervously.
"Can I help you?" The nurse said turning to him. Robin numbly held out his pass to her. She took it from his outstretched hand and read the note from Mrs. Dean. "If you want to have a seat hon, I'll go ahead and call your mom." Robin thanked her before going to take a seat next to Star. When the nurse walked over to the phone Star leaned over and whispered,
"Why is she calling your mother?"
"Coma patient." Robin replied.
"Ah, so that is a get out of school free card?" Starfire giggled and Robin smiled.
"Yeah I guess so." He sat there smiling with her for a moment before his brow furrowed and he looked at her ankle in concern.
"Are you ok?"
"This? Yes, I am fine. A girl fell on me during practice this morning." Robin looked doubtful.
"She fell on you?" Starfire nodded rapidly.
"Yes." Her eyes widened. "She is larger than I. We landed oddly. I think it is ok, just strained."
"Good." Robin smiled again, noticing the many hues that made her eyes green.
"I think that I will go home." Star said sadly rubbing her ankle. "I have not a ride yet so I must wait."
"Hey, why don't you come home with me? You could wait for your mom there?" Starfire clapped her hands together.
"Really?"
"Of course."
"Glorious!" I will be most pleased to join you at your home. I shall simply leave a message for my mother yes?" Robin nodded.
"Sounds good to me." His heart beast wildly against his chest. Just the thought of being alone with her made his feel light headed.
"What shall we do to amuse ourselves until I have to leave?" Robin's mind ran away with him and he blushed deeply at the thoughts that flew through his head.
"Uh, I am sure we'll figure out something." Starfire grinned.
"I hope whatever it is, it is fun." Robin nearly fell off the bench. Yeah, he thought, me too.
