Their date had been a disaster. For the millionth time Robin asked himself, why did Starfire have to invite herself? And for the millionth time he responded by asking why couldn't he just have said no to Starfire? As they'd left the theater, Raven had flown off, presumably back to the tower, but regardless of where she went he didn't see her the rest of the night. He'd told Starfire to go on ahead and that he would catch up. As Starfire took off Robin began walking in the opposite direction, trying to figure out how to fix things with Raven. After walking for almost an hour he finally had a plan, now it was the next morning and he was ready to implement his plan.
When Robin got back to the Tower he tried to convince Cyborg and Beast Boy to help him in his quest. And after making many promises involving not wearing any hair gel for a week and not eating any meat for entire day, he finally had their support. Now he was standing outside of Raven's room, with a bunch of wildflowers and a note telling her to meet her 'secret admirer' in the park. Robin took a deep breath and laid the flowers on the floor, poised to run he knocked on her door. Then he ran as if there was an army of fan girls chasing him.
He went down to the garage and got on his R-Cycle, he sped out of the Tower, toward the park where he'd asked Raven to meet him. Once there he got off his bike and unloaded the stuff that he'd packed. After he was done he hid the R-Cycle behind some bushes and after sitting down next to it he sat there waiting for Raven to show.
With Raven
Raven got up and went over to her door hearing the knocking, but when she opened the door no one was there, all she saw was a bouquet of wild flowers. She brought the flowers into her room; she set them on her desk and went into her bathroom to get some water for the flowers. Then she saw the note that was attached, she opened it and it read:
"My memories are gone, but not my manners. In apology for my behavior last night I'd like to make it up to you if I can. Please meet my in the park by the beach as soon as you finish reading this letter. –Yours truly, The Boy Blunder"
Raven put the note down on her desk and smiled a little smile and then did something that was very un-Raven-like, she flung out her arms and spun around in circles in her room. She fell back on her bed and sighed and thought, 'He wants to make it up to me for ruining our date. Now the question is what should I wear?'
After thinking for a few moments Raven decided that what she already had on was good.
'My uniform will be perfect. I don't want him thinking that I tried too hard.' Then without giving it any further thought she left.
It was easy finding the park and where they were to meet because there lying on the grass was the table cloth from their kitchen also the bouquets of flowers that matched the ones that he'd given her, surrounded the picnic area. Raven looked around Robin, but he was no where in sight. She sighed and sat down on the table cloth. She didn't have to wait long, because just moments after she sat down she felt someone tap her on shoulder. She turned around and saw Robin standing there. He was holding a thermos which he then proceeded to pour into a cup and handed to her. He then sat down next to her and began to speak.
"I asked you here to apologize for last night, I never meant for Starfire to go with us. It was only supposed to be you and me. So to make it up to you I planned a very special day for us. Just the two of us. First on the list of things to do today is breakfast."
He nodded towards the cup that Raven held in her hands. "It's herbal tea. I stole some from your stash in the kitchen to make it. I hope its okay."
Robin watched Raven closely as she took a cautious sip of the tea. As the tea went down she slowly began to smile, after she'd drained the cup she spoke saying.
"This is very good almost better than when I make it."
Robin leaned back on his elbows and looked out over the beach and into the water. As soon as Raven put her cup down, Robin grabbed her and lifted her up and ran straight into the water. Raven gasped as the cold water hit her. Robin set her down in the water and whispered in her ear.
"Number two, play in the water."

The rest of the day was spent touring around the city on the back on Robin's R-Cycle. He'd magically pulled out dry street clothes for Raven and himself. They went to the art gallery and five or six different bookstores. For lunch they ate in one of bookstores cafe. After supper at a little Italian restaurant where the owner greeted Robin like an old friend, they went to a movie called, "The Return of the Zombie King" through out the whole movie, they were continuously laughing at the cheesiness of the whole thing, much to the annoyance of the rest of the movie goers.
Back at the Tower they were standing outside Raven's door, it was late and the rest of the Titans had gone to bed already. Raven was thanking Robin for a wonderful day.
"I didn't know that I could have so much fun Robin, thank you for a wonderful day."
"You're welcome Raven."
Raven was turning towards her door to go inside her room, when Robin reached out and grabbed her arm preventing her from going inside.
"You're sure we weren't dating?" Raven nodded her head, but before she could turn away again Robin used one hand to take hold of her waist and the other to hold onto her chin, and then before she had time to react, he kissed her on the lips. It was brief a mere brushing of lips together, but it was definitely a kiss.
When Robin pulled back he whispered, "You're right we weren't dating, I would've remembered something like that."
Then he disappeared into the night.
