My name is Dick Grayson.
Most people know me as Robin… the boy wonder.
My parents were killed by a crook.
I was raised by the Bat… Gotham's night, in darkened amour.
I wear a mask to hide my past.
I live in a tower with four other people.
They are my friends.
But no one really understands me.
Cyborg he lost half his body in an accident.
Beast Boy was orphaned as a child.
Raven's mother was killed by a demon.
Everyone has suffered… except one.
Starfire is her name.
She came from a distant planet named Tamaran.
Here on earth she is lost.
Most of the time, I feel I need to protect her, to be with her.
I don't know what it is about her.
She is so caring, so peaceful.
But at times she can be ferocious, when it comes to protecting her friends.
I think I like her… maybe even love her.
But how can she even feel the same way about me?
Thousands of guys would kill to go out with her.
Yet she doesn't.
She hangs around with me.
Maybe she does.
But every time I try and say something… I shut down.
'Emotions will only get in the way' were the words of
Gotham's night, in darkened amour.
I'm supposed to be the leader, not afraid of anything.
'Hey Starfire?'
'yes Robin?'
'would you…'
'yes?'
'like to…'
'yes Robin?'
'play the game station with me?'
'ok!'
maybe some other time…
