The party was filled with lots of people, some Richard didn't even know. Most of these people were friends of Bruce and wanted to become friends with Richard, for when he becomes owner of Wayne Int.

Richard was the center of attention, he had one blonde on each arm. It was Victor's idea. He was hoping it would cheer Rich up, ever sense his encounter with Kori he hadn't been the same. The two girls were very...very beautiful and were hanging all over Richard and he acted as if he didn't even notice.

"Rich, this is your party, for cryin out loud enjoy your self. You have two blondes that would love for you to show them around upstairs. What are you doing? Vic whispered angrily in his ear.

"I'm not interested." Richard whispered back.

"Dude will you get off of her. She's our friend sure, but she doesn't want anything to do with you. Personally I don't blame her from what you did to her..." Gar added, but trailed off when he saw a beautiful red headed girl walk through the door way leading to the upper floors. She leaned against the middle of the railing for the stairs leading down to the main floor. She had her long fed hair down in soft light curls that reached her lower back. She was wearing a black dress with silver swirls, it had two straps that tied around her neck. The front of the dress came down in a very low v-neck that gave a good view of her chest. She was breath taking.

Richard craned his neck so he could see what made Gar stop. 'It's Kori, she's here. Wait how did she know about the party? Who cares. I have to talk to her. I need to tell her how I feel.' He thought as he detached himself from the two girls that whined considerably, and made his way to the stair case. He had to talk to her.

He made his way up the stair case to great her. But when he got there she had left down the other side. 'Damn.' He cursed He made his way back to where Vic and Gar were.

Kori was sipping sparkling cider while chatting with Bruce, and some of his friends. Bruce excused himself along with Kori, and led her to a table to sit and chat. They sat in silence for a few moments before he spoke.

"I'm going to go up there in a few minutes and talk about Richard...don't you dare try anything stupid." He said it so calmly it was scary.

"It sounds like you want me to do something." Her face held a mischievous smile.

"Oh, don't worry. It won't be too bad. After all I didn't want to come. You made me. So I'm just gonna have a little fun." She said back, equally calm. Two years of living with Bruce had taught her how to control her emotions...somewhat.

Bruce sighed. "Fine. Just don't make it too bad. If you'd excuse me, I have to go and see when I can give me speech." He smiled and left. ' ok he smiled, I hope he's feeling ok.' She thought sarcastically. She quickly grabbed one of the over-sized white napkins and pulled out her red lipstick out of her purse. She hurried up and got busy. ' Yeah like I would come without having something up my sleeves.' She thought as she wrote her message.

Richard was talking again with random people who wanted to wish him a happy birthday. But none of them were Kori. He kept searching for her, but he couldn't find her. He was so engrossed in a conversation with Gar, Vic, and Raven that he didn't notice the red head walk behind him, stick something on his back, and grab another glass of cider. But he did notice when some one came and slapped his well defined ass. He jumped and turned to see a cute blonde that was blushing furiously.

"Happy Birthday, sexy." she murmured and walked away quickly. Four other girls had did the same thing, but not all had called him 'sexy', most stuck with 'Birthday boy'.

Kori sat back down at a table near the very back, that was sort of in the shadows. The orchestra had stopped and she heard Bruce ask for every one's attention.

"I would just like to thank every one for coming tonight. I am so proud of Richard. He is the best son any one could ever ask for. Richard would you like come to come up and say something?"

"Sure why not." Richard stepped up to the face everyone. Once his back was facing the Titans, they tried hard not to laugh. 'So this is why all those girls were spanking him.' Gar thought as Richard said a few words. " Thank you for coming. I was really surprised that this many people even showed up. Wow. Thanks and hope you enjoy the rest of the night." He smiled and turned around and while he was walking back to his friends he heard a few people try to hide a giggle or two.

Victor walked up to him and whispered something in his ear. With each word Richard's face got redder. He turned his head to look and Bruce who had an amused face on. Richard noticed that Bruce was pointing at a table hidden in the shadows. Siting there was Kori. Richard reached back and ripped the napkin off his back and read it. It read

' Spank me! It's my Birthday!" and on the back was ' Love Kori'.

People had gotten over their little laugh and people had began to occupy the dance floor. Richard was searching for Kori to personally thank her for her present. He found her, but she was dancing...with Bruce. 'What the hell?' He made his way to her.

Kori was floating across the dance floor with Bruce. He had asked her to dance after her little prank. She was the first one to break the silence.

"See it wasn't so bad." she said sarcastically.

"Yeah but you embarrassed him. But over all a very good prank."

"Thank you, and he deserved it."

"Yeah but..." He was interrupted by Richard.

"May I cut in?" He sapphire eyes peirced her emerald ones.

" Don't mind me." She said as she made to walk away. Bruce grabbed her arm and pulled her back.

"Nice try. I was just leaving. Have fun you two." Bruce walked away, leaving to two x-team mates alone.

Richard took Kori by the waist bringing her closer to him, just like when they were teens. Kori wrapped her arms around his neck, swaying back and forth to the music.

"I guess I deserved that." He whispered.

"Yes you did." she murmured.

"Look Kori I was stupid, I'm so sorry. I missed you so much. Is there any chance...any at all that we can still be friends?" He asked hopefully.

"Richard I over reacted, I guess we can be...friends...just friends." She said. Richard smiled at her, when she placed her head on his shoulder. He had his star back.Well not completely but at least he could talk to her, be close to her.

"It's late. I should be going." She whispered.

"Ok," She turned to walk away but she stopped when she felt a hand on her's.

"How will I find you?" She smiled at him, and walked up to him.

"I'll find you." She whispered, and kissed his cheek before walking away. 'Well it wasn't as bad as I thought it would be.' She thought as she made her way up the stairs.

Richard watched her figure walk away. He reached up and felt his cheek where she had kissed him. "I wish it was like old times. To bad it's too late." He thought as he walked back to his guests.
