Diclaimer for all chapters: i do not own the Teen Titans.
Robin woke up quite early the next morning, as usual, and the sky was still dark. There was no movement from beside him, and he did remember hugging a bolster. Or was it? Shit. He was about to get up when something slapped onto his face, and he reeled with shock. It wasn't long before he realized it was his mask. Getting up quickly, he found Raven standing there at the foot of the bed, already dressed, arms akimbo as she looked at him with an unreadable expression. Without waiting for him to say anything, she said calmly, and of course sarcastically, "Well, well, our Boy Wonder has forgotten that he is to hide his eyes all the time."
Robin rubbed his eyes lazily, walking over to the bathroom and simply ignoring her. He knew that a 'thank you' would just bring another set of nasty remarks, or even simple ignorance, so he didn't say anything, not even a 'good morning'. She probably saw his eyes already, but heck. He knew that Raven was not the sort to gossip about his eyes or whatever, but yet he still felt quite…scared that someone had already seen his secret that he could even hide from his best mates. Raven had not shown any sign of excitement, nor any sign of the fact that she saw something she was not supposed to see, so he felt safe. But then, she was so expressionless and cold all the time, he couldn't trust what he saw of her from the outside.
He heard the door close, and sighed. It was going to be another long day.
Raven walked down the stairs, her mind whirling. She hadn't dreamt last night, needless to talk about nightmares. She felt warm yesterday night, like she was being hugged, and she…she could fall asleep. And when she woke up, she found herself in Robin's arms. Stopping midway, she pressed her hands onto her temples and rubbed them. She needed to meditate. She really did. Reaching the bottom of the stairs, she sat on the ruined sofa and forgot her habit of herbal tea for the first time. Was she feeling for the young man she is supposed to hate? Was she going mad? Or was she just dreaming? That was lame. Robin was already dating Starfire. She was quite sure that he was unaware of holding her while he slept, but to her it seemed… it seemed important. Damn it. She cursed to herself, then slouched. There were still many conflicts between the two of them after the End, despite the fact that she had hugged him, she had let her happiness flow for the first time. But did she still feel it now? I've got to stop thinking. It was just one bloody night! She crossed her legs and closed her eyes, beginning to chant slowly in her mind. Everything turned distant to her, and she kind of relaxed. She didn't know how long she had meditated, but she almost screamed when someone said in her face, "Good morning, friend Raven!"
Raven jumped out of the sofa, facing a happy Starfire. "God, Starfire! When are you ever going to learn your manners?" Raven said angrily, keeping her voice dangerously low.
Starfire showed a hint of apology, then replied joyfully, "It's Love Day in Tamaran now and I would like to share it with all of you! So I have made a new reci…"
"No thanks," Raven replied in a monotone, then got up from the seat. Everything seemed different, but she had to remain the same, no matter what. It just happened that Starfire was like that too. And Raven was sure the recipe was going to be horrid, since they had no fire to cook the stuff, and it will be raw. Cold chicken and salad was bad enough, but more of Starfire's cooking? No thanks. Really no thanks.
She could sense Starfire's disappointed look, but she ignored it. She didn't want to know about Tamaran celebrations, what's more Love Day. To hell with Love Day. I'm already struggling here. She teleported upstairs to the roof, and sat at her favorite spot on the edge of the roof. She could see many things here, the scenery in the morning, the stars at night… It was really amazing, to be honest. And she was alone. Nobody could disturb her here, and she could meditate. She really didn't mind.
She sighed. It was going to be another long day.
Robin went back to the hall from his incessant training. He was soaked in sweat, and it made his tanned skin look shiny. He had been out in the sun for too long, causing his dark skin. At least he wasn't as pale as Raven…. Wait. When did she come to mind? Heck.
The day passed normally. Usually there would be fightings, whatsoever. But today it seemed different. Just normal, plain boring. With kisses from Starfire. She kissed him everyday, and it was already counted routine. But so what? He felt himself distancing himself away from her everyday, and he didn't know it. Maybe he should start taking lessons for meditation from Raven. What the hell? When did Raven pop up again?
Just to show some normal happenings. Come on, I can't let them love so fast right? In just one night's experience? Haha, not that easy. Next chapter though. I promise. Otherwise I bet you guys would get bored to death. Lols…. Anyway, reviews please!
