If anyone who knew him passed by they would certainly check his forehead for a fever. A smile, akin to the expression of a child's in a candy store was blatantly visible on Robin's face. To the outside world there was no obvious cause for the bizarre alteration of his normal demeanor. After all, he was carrying the largest suitcase in the world, which was probably the last luggage of its kind of the magnitude not to have wheels, across a massive parking lot. A normal person would have been grumbling various profanities by this point in time. However, most people were not walking next to the previously missing half of their heart. Robin knew that even Raven was curious about the change because she kept giving him strange sideways glances as she walked along side of him making small talk.
"Are you sure you don't want me to get the suitcase? There are no people around and I can use my pow. . ." Raven started and was cut off by her fellow teammate.
"Rachelle, just like the last time you asked, the answer is no. Besides, if I can't carry this bag across a tiny parking lot then I'm a pitiful excuse of a superhero. Now, please stop asking before I find a way to sneak a peak at my gift." Robin replied in a calm tone. Now Raven's gaze turned sharply to him with a look that would have sent many people cowering in the corner. Luckily for Robin, he had grown desensitized to her "death stare" a long time ago.
"You can try to 'sneak a peak' but there will be a rather unpleasant surprise inside if you are bold enough to try." Raven declared and scanned the rows for the T-car. "Where did you park?"
Robin paused and looked around having forgotten where he had parked. After a moment his blushed . . . he had been staring at Raven so much that he had accidently passed the car. For a moment he contemplated leading Raven around in circles around the parking lot before going to the T-car. Having no idea where he had parked would be far less embarrassing then having passed that clearly unique and identifiable car. On the other hand, Raven had also walked right passed the T-car. Robin sighed heavily before abruptly turning around and began quickly marching back the direction of the car. A second later he could hear the quick and loud pitter patter of an angry Raven.
"You passed it? How did you manage that boy blunder?" she demanded in an angry and playful tone. Robin considered her tone before answering. She was trying to goad him into an argument . . . her favorite pastime. There was also bewilderment and amusement in that voice. Those aspects made him weary; therefore, Robin decided a response as near to the truth as possible was best.
"Sorry, I'm just a little distracted. I haven't seen you in a month. I missed my best friend," Robin said as he came to stand in back of the T-car. He looked over his back to see her face and found she was smiling slightly. There it was . . . that smile that made him melt a little inside and feel as if the world made sense. It was a smile that only he was blessed to see frequently. In fact, Raven only smiled a lot with him really.
"I missed you too," Raven replied softly. Her voice suggested that she meant more then the obvious. Robin knew that she was mentioning the sudden lack of distance between them. Furthermore, that tone told him that she would want answers soon to the origin to the previous drift. Robin secured her suitcase and climbed into the driver's seat. A second later Raven opened her door and slid into the passenger's seat.
As soon as Robin started up the car, he remembered his promise to call the other's before he left the airport. Pulling out his cell phone, Robin dialed the Tower. After a few rings Star's high-pitched voice came in from the other side of the line.
"Hello, this is Starfire speaking." she declared.
"Star, it's me, Robin. I have Raven and we are leaving now," he said. Robin glanced to his right at Raven. Nothing in her posture suggested that she was even contemplating a surprise party. Robin wondered if he should actually tell her . . . it was never a brilliant idea to surprise the dark sorceress.
"Oh, wonderful, I am thrilled. Does she have any idea about the party of welcoming?" Star asked him. Robin groaned knowing full well that his cell phone was loud and Raven had probably just heard every word.
"Nope. Anyways, I have to go Star. We'll see you when we get there." Robin replied in a calm manner and flipped the phone closed. Now he had to figure out a way to get Raven to agree to both go to the party, but also play along with the surprise.
He he . . . robin passed the car. I promise they will eventually reach the tower . . . anyways I hope you enjoyed this chapter. As always, thank you for your reviews. They mean a lot to me.
