'What can I do but cry?'
The whole ride back was very quiet. Raven was gone and Robin was straining to stop himself from crying. How long would he wait before he finally broke the dam? How long would he have to wait before the pain finally eased away? How long would he wait for Raven? The thoughts never failed in his mind. He questioned his devotion to Raven, his faith he put in her.
They had just barely reached the tower when he broke down. Cyborg and BeastBoy took control as Robin just collapsed in on himself and his arms held fast to himself. He cried tears that would have stung the srongest of men. He leaned forward and his forehead touched his knees and he silently cried.
"Should we leave him there?" BeastBoy asked quietly, watching Robin's form from outside the T-Ship.
Starfire shook her head. "We must let him cry. I wish to return to my room and find comfort." She floated off, quiet as ever.
Cyborg and BeastBoy paused and then started up the stairs to their rooms.
When there was no on there, Robin thrust his fist out and it connected on the steering. He slowly looked up, his vision blured by tears and he gripped a tight grip and felt it draw blood from beneath his glove and he suddenly gasped. The blood stained the green, turning it a dark shade of brown. He watched it as he thought of Raven's face and he felt the betrayal fill him along side the guilt he already felt. "I... I love you, Raven," he whispered to no one and he sat back and looked up at the ceiling, tears flowing out, dripping down his face and his neck. "Do... do you love... love me?" he asked, again, to no one. He reached up over his vision, as if he could reach into the heavens and he slowly began to clench a fist, as if he was trying to hold Raven's hand as she floated away into the heavens.
'Why didn't I tell you?'
