Hey hey enjoy! Please review me… please? I-I'll give you a hug…? HUG

"The baby Robin!" I yelled. He picked me up and held me in his arms running. "Where…?"
"The hospital!"
"B-but, they, us, powers…" The pain got greater. I grasped my stomach. "They'll know who we are!"
"I don't care, Rae!" I blanked out. I was focusing on the pain. It was stinging and hurting but I just had to leave it be. Let it sting. Let it hurt. Before I knew it we were at the hospital. Everything was a big blur. I had too much worry, too much stress. They put a mask on my face when I got on the uncomfortable straight bed. I breathed in. The air felt fulfilling but I felt myself drift into sleep.
When I woke up about two hours had past. My stomach still hurt all the same. I was still in my clothes. I looked over, not making a sound, at Robin. He was seated next to me holding my hand and looking at the floor.
"Robin?" I asked quietly. He snapped his head up and smiled.
"Hey… You're awake…?"
"Yes, what happened to the-"
"Rae," he said putting his hand on my gut again. "You fell into unconsciousness, they had to wait until you were awake to… operate on you."
"For what?"
"Well… Rae, the baby's dead. The man punched you smack bang in the middle." I looked in the opposite direction not letting him see my expression. I was very upset. That was one of the worst things to happen to me. I was getting teary. This was not the worst thing to happen but to think that that man was only doing that for fun. I hated villains. The first thing I thought of was revenge. But I'm not that sort of person. I can't be.
I barely thought of much then. I was staring at the wall. Thinking about what could have been.
"Rae. It's not the end of the world. We can have another baby. Don't worry, OK?" Robin was right this wasn't the end of the world. Mainly because I have seen it and it didn't look anything like it.
Robin went to tell the nurse that I had awoken. When the nurse and Robin came back, she walked me to a room where I could change into the gross outfit everyone wore. The giant poncho type green thing. When I was finished I came out and they put me on the bed. About to wheel me out into the surgery room, Robin squeezed my hand.
"Raven, you'll be fine." He told me that looking straight into my eyes. I was completely trustworthy of him.
"Thank you, I love you." Those were the only things I could think of. Sometime ago we were watching the fireworks, discussing our future, baby showers and weddings. At least we'll have the wedding. I remember being told to count backwards and that was when I went to sleep. There was no dream. No nightmare. Just gas.
I felt unsure of what they were doing but I didn't have a chance to ask. I didn't care either. Almost as soon as I was under, I woke up. It felt that way.
I woke to Robin again. He was looking around the room at the paintings. "How long was the…?"
"Oh… an hour I guess, including how long you were out. Have you seen this painting?"
"No, but Robin what happened?"
"Oh don't worry. Have you noticed this error, the hand is back to front!" He smiled. I knew he was trying to cover it up, whatever happened.
"Robin, just tell me."
"OK Rae. The doctors told me to tell you, when you woke up that they removed the dead baby and set everything back to normal but they also saw that when the guy punched you… he punched the baby back and I won't go into detail but Raven. You can't have any kids. Physically, it's impossible."
He wasn't facing me but I could feel his sadness in his voice. I turned away too. Facing the wall. I think there are two ends to the world. One is fiery and evil, the other is when you feel like it is the end of the world. This was one of the few times in my entire life that I could call myself crying. Robin heard me and sat beside me on the bed he hugged me and kissed me on the forehead. This wasn't what I had expected. I don't think this was what he expected either. All because of one punch, one person.
