They drove for nearly and hour, talking and laughing. The whole while, Robin moved closer and closer to Kane, sliding across the bench seat until she was comfortably wrapped under his free arm.

Finally, they pulled into his driveway and followed it back through his property to his house.

"Wow, I take it you like the wilderness?" Robin joked feeling safe in his cover of big trees.

"I'm not comfortable in cities. I'm happier away from people…" Kane hopped out and opened her door for her. "Hope animals don't bother you… They can get a little crazy." Robin waved off his worry, laughing.

"Okay, but I'll warn you. Look out for Spike. Jake and Bear won't cause any trouble." Kane's voice sounded faintly playful.

"But, how will I know who Spike is?"

"Oh, you'll know." Kane chuckled as he opened the door and two huge Shepards came barreling out followed by the ugliest little black and white dog she'd ever seen.
Kane whistled and the two big dogs retreated back into the house.

"Get back you little piranha!" Kane yelled chasing the little one after the other two laughing. "Best security system I'll ever have." He joked escorting her through the door of his four bed room home.

"Sorry, it's a bit messy. I don't really have anyone over…ever." He said tossing down his keys and unconsciously pulling off his mask. "Sara and Lita are about the only ones to ever come by." He finished turning to her.

At first, he couldn't decipher the look on her face. Glancing over, he saw his mask on the table.

"Oh Jesus…" He cursed turning away. Robin grabbed his wrist as he tried to retreat. He protested briefly but eventually relaxed when she didn't let go.

"Don't hide…Please?" Robin whispered using her free hand to move the hair from in front of his face. Kane flinched but allowed her to see him.

Robin's breath caught in her throat. There was nothing wrong with this man, nothing, just a slight discoloration to the left of his left eye.

"Why do you wear that mask?" She asked softly.

"I know what I look like…" He said and tried to pull away from her persistent grip.
"Obviously, you don't." She said earnestly turning his face toward her and kissing him delicately on the lips.

Kane's body went stiff as her kiss shot through him like lightning and he wrapped his arms around her, never wanting the moment to end. When it did, he could only blink at her in disbelief.

"Why are you doing that?" He asked looking down at the floor.

"I wanted to." She whispered and hugged him tight around the middle. "I don't think I've ever felt this attached to someone so quickly."

Kane scooped her up and took her into the living room, setting her gently down onto the couch and smiled.

"What?" Robin asked seeing an odd look on his face.

"I want to try something." He said sliding onto the couch next to her, the black leather creaking under his weight.

Robin leaned in close as he gently pulled her to him and pressed his lips to hers again. She sighed and wrapped her arms around his neck inviting him to continue. Gradually, he parted her lips with his and gently slid his tongue in to meet hers. She swooned, moaning against his lips and pulling his body closer to her. No matter how close she got, it wasn't close enough.

All of a sudden, he pulled back looking into her eyes.

"We should probably stop." He panted breathlessly. Robin started to protest but he quieted her with another little kiss. "I don't want this to be a one night stand." He finished hoping he hadn't upset her.

"Kane, I don't either. I think this could be really good. I don't know why but I do." She said running a hand through his long hair.

He breathed a sigh of relief and kissed her forehead tenderly.

"Good, I'm glad you agree." He smiled and yawned.

"Long day eh?" Robin teased. Kane nodded and nudged her over to lie down on the couch, wrapping her in his arms.

"Oh yeah, I got hit in the head with a chair and then some crazy girl came out to rescue me." Kane laughed as she reached back to smack him, missing completely.

"Kane," Robin yawned in response, "I think we should get my car tomorrow." She snuggled into him. Kane yawned again and nodded his agreement into her back. Almost instantly, he was asleep.
