Hey everyone sorry I didn't up date in a long time I had to go to the Ranch and help out with stuff there. So any ways, Enjoy!
T Tower
After the night with telepathic chat with Raven, Robin decided to sleep in a while. Robin was sleeping soundly, not tossing and not breathing hard or nothing. Then Cyborg came down to check on Robin, since Robin hasn't been up at his usual time. Cyborg walked up to Robin's door and knocked loudly. BANG, BANG, BANG! " Yo, Robin? Are you alright?" Cyborg said in a worried voice. Robin sat up with a jolt and breathing hard. Robin got up and walked over to the door, a little tired, and opened it and looked up at the half man, half machine team mate.
"Yawn Huh? Cyborg? What?" Robin sounded tired but didn't look it.
"I was just making sure you were alright and we didn't have to send an ambulance."
"Well, I'm fine. I just had to sleep in." He put his hand on the side of his face like he was thinking of where the dark girl would be, but he was actually thinking up a lie.
"So, what did you find out about our mysterious visitor?" Cyborg could read the way Robin was acting, even though Robin was faking it, but he was pretty good at it even though he did it a lot.
"I'm still trying to figure out where she might be. I've still been trying to locate her but no luck." Robin stopped and looked up at his team mate. "I'm going to come down in a minute."
"Alright man." Cyborg turned and walked away, once when he was gone Robin closed his door and put on his trade mark uniform, out on his belt, and walked on down the hall way to the big living room were Starfire was watching Beast Boy and Cyborg play a boxing game on game station. Robin didn't mind, he just walked over to the kitchen and grabbed some water from the fridge and sat down at the counter.
"Friend Robin! I'm glad to see you are up." Star came flying over and hugged him to show her gratitude.
"Not now Star." Robin said as he wiggled free of her grasp.
"Dear Robin, What is the-"
"I'll be working out in the gym." Robin got up and walked toward the gym trying not to get in to a conversation with Starfire.
Gym in T Tower
Robin opened the door to the gym and walked him self over to the punching bag. He looked around to make sure no one was there and then he started punching the bag, and he made some yelling, grunting, and hard breathing sounds, like he was hitting Slade. Every time the punching bag would come back the bag would swing higher with each kick or punch. Finally he gave up when sweat ran down his face. As the bag swung back and forth a figure appeared on the farthest wall behind Robin. Robin bent over to catch his breath. "So you tired already?" Robin jumped and turned around in shock, he thought he was the only one in here. Raven leaned against the wall with her arms crossed. "Now I didn't scare you that bad, did I?" she said in a kind of sarcastic, dull, and flat tone.
"How did you- Where did you- You just-?" Robin was tripping over his sentences as he was trying to figure where she came from. Raven just rolled her eyes and sighed, she got up from her leaning position, while Robin was still confused, Raven walked over to Robin and put her hand over his mouth to SHUT HIM UP! (Who cares he's so cute when he studders)
"Will you just be quiet?" Raven took her hand off his mouth and he finally shut up.
"How did you get here?" Was Robin's final question. Raven just rolled her eyes again and said, "You forgot that I have powers."
"Oh. Oops." Robin blushed a bit. "So why are you here?"
"Listen. I... I... I don't have a place to stay and... I was hopping that you... could... get me a room here. Just for a little while." Raven managed to add. She didn't want to stay here with such ruthless team mates.
"So do you want to be a Titan?"
"No."
"Then why did you ask me if you could stay here?"
"To get a roof over my head."
"Then if you are going to stay here you have to become a Titan."
"No."
"Then why don't you go find a roof some where else."
"I can't!"
"Why?" Raven was shocked and stepped back to keep her distance and think.
"I don't know anyone here besides... you." She managed to say quietly. Once Robin heard that he just froze. He didn't realize how alone she was.
"Oh." He said realizing what just happened. "I'm sorry. Got an idea you can stay here for two nights and then if you still need a home you become a Titan. Okay?" Robin said as he put out his hand for an agreement. Raven looked at his gloved hand then back up at his masked face then looked back down at his hand and Raven stepped forward and reached out her hand and gently grasped his hand and Robin enclosed his hand around hers and shook. Still through his gloves he could feel her warm hand in his. Then The Deal Began...
