After the dark witch was dressed and ready, she opened her door to find Robin falling back in surprise as he leaned against it. "May I help you?" she asked in her monotone voice, looking down at him.

"Huh? Oh. I, uh, wanted to talk to you." He said, standing up to look her in the eyes.

"Okay? You wanna come in?" she said, moving out of the way so he can step in.

"Sure. Thanks." The boy wonder stepped into her dark room and looked around, as if he was searching for something. "Um, nice place you have here."

The dark girl raised an eyebrow at her friend. "So what did you wanna talk about, Robin?"

He spun around, suddenly very serious. "Right. Raven, I want you to stay here when we fight the Hive 5 from now on."

"What?" she asked stunned.

"I want you to stay here when we fight the Hive 5." He said, more confident than before.

"Why?" she asked, grinding her teeth.

He straightened his back and raised his chin. "I want you to stay away from Kyd Wykkyd."

She stepped back. "Why would you do that?"

"I know about you two, Raven. I know you two are together." He crossed his strong arms over his chest.

No way, she thought.

"You're insane." She told him, walking around the boy to sit on her bed. "There isn't anything going on between me and Kyd Wykkyd."

He laughed. "Don't lie to me."

"I'm not." She said. I am, her mind said.

"I heard you last night in the car. You were calling out his name. More like mumbling, actually."

"You have no proof."

The masked boy just ignored her and went on. "He's a villain, Rae. He isn't good for you."

"You don't even KNOW him!" she yelled, jumping to her feet.

That was the last bit of patience that Robin had. "And you DO?!" he yelled back.

"Yes. I do."

He shook his head at her. "No, you don't, Raven."

She growled and clenched her fists. She could feel the anger of her father rising within her and she was having trouble containing it. "Yes. I. Do."

"No. He's playing you, Raven. He's using YOU to get to the team."

"Shut up."

"No. He isn't GOOD for you, Raven."

"Shut up."

"Raven look at me." He said. She shook her head, fighting back the tears that dared to escape. A bead of sweat broke out as she tried to control her rage. "Raven. LOOK at me."

She shook her head once more. "I can't."

The boy sighed and shook his head. "Fine. Be stubborn. But like I told you, he isn't good for you."

That was it for Raven's self control. She used her powers and threw Robin against her door, making a Robin-sized dent. He stared in shock at her. He no longer saw the two, onyx eyes of his friend; but saw the four, red eyes of the demon inside of her. Raven yelled and covered her eyes with her hands.

"Raven…" Robin said, trailing off. "Raven, are you alright?"

"Get out," she ordered, still covering her eyes.

"I- I can't. The dent in the door…" he said, scared to continue.

"I said, 'Get OUT!" she yelled as she opened a portal to his room (which was right below hers) beneath him and he fell through.

Once he was gone, so were Raven's four eyes. She fell to her knees and sobbed, letting the tears finally escape. "I'm sorry," she whispered to no one. "I'm sorry."

She wiped her eyes and went to the bathroom to wash her face again. She stared into the mirror and checked once…twice…THREE times to make sure the demon eyes were gone. They were.

She finished cleaning herself up and flung herself on her bed, sobbing. After a while, she used her powers to fix the dent and went outside to start her day for real this time.

As she made her way to the common room, she saw Robin watching TV with Starfire as she asked random questions about the show. She saw him and all he did was glare as she made her way into the kitchen to make her herbal tea. And that's all she ever got when she saw Robin.

Later that night, Kyd Wykkyd returned (once again in his black boxers and shirt) to find one, sad Raven (without the bandages). For that, he was glad. He crawled in bed with her, wrapped his arms around her, and kissed her head.

Hello beautiful. He said. Raven sniffled and Wykkyd was instantly worried. What's wrong Raven? Then remembering last night, he pulled his arms away. Was I hurting you?

She shook her head. "No. m-My injuries are gone."

He sighed in relief and re-wrapped his arms around her body. Then what's wrong? He growled at the thought that popped up in his head. Did someone hurt you?

She managed a nod.

WHO, Raven? Who hurt you?

"Robin," she said in a whisper. He growled at the name and the fact that he hurt his Raven.

How?

"He knows." Wykkyd stiffened. He had not expected that. It was bad enough to have Jinx know about them, but Robin? That was terrible. She began to cry. "He knows. He knows and he wants me to stay away from you."

Wykkyd regained his composure and tightened his hold on the demoness. Are you?

She shook her head, still barely speaking. The tears fell from her eyes as she cried silently in the boy's arms. He sighed. Good. He kissed her head again. Shh. Shh, my sweet and beautiful Raven. There's no need to cry.

She shook her head at his words. There was plenty of need to cry. "I hurt him." She whispered.

Kyd Wykkyd shook his head at her. No. Don't you DARE feel guilty. He probably deserved it.

"No. I lost control and I threw him at my door."

Wykkyd lifted his head and looked at her door. His brow furrowed because he knew how strong Raven was and there wasn't even a TINY dent in the door. Did you REALLY?

She laughed quietly and he smiled knowing that she was SLIGHTLY okay. "I took out the dent."

Oh.

The girl got closer to Wykkyd and wrapped her arms around his like last night. "What are we going to do, Wykkyd?"

We're not going to let this effect us, THAT's for sure.

"It's already affected us."

"No." Raven froze. This was the first time she heard Wykkyd open his mouth and heard his real voice.

She turned in his arms and stared at the boy next to her. "Did you just- Did you just…TALK?" He nodded, silent again. "Wow. I didn't think you could. I- I thought you were…"

"Mute?" he asked, finishing her sentence for her. All the girl could do is nod. He smiled. "I can talk when I want to, but I only do it when I mean what I say. And I meant it when I said that this hasn't affected us, Raven. And it HASN'T."

"But, Robin—"

So? Jinx knows and I'm here, aren't I?

"Yes but- Wait. JINX knows?"

Yes. She saw us the night I saved you.

"And? She's okay with it?" The girl was shocked. Jinx absolutely despised Raven, yet she was ok with her dating her teammate? Wow.

No. She isn't okay with it.

Oh.

"What did she do?"

Kyd Wykkyd looked away but kept his arms around Raven. She threatened to kill you. Even in his mind, his words sounded like a whisper.

"She what?!" Raven yelled. Wykkyd quickly covered her mouth with his hands, giving Raven a warning glance before turning his attention to her door. He sighed and let go when he realized no one had heard his loud girlfriend. "She what?" Raven said once she was free, much quieter though.

He looked into her eyes and repeated himself. She threatened to kill you if I kept thinking of you. That's why she made the ladder fall on you two days ago.

"And you're here because you WANT her to kill me?"

What?! No! Listen to me, If she's gonna kill you, she has to get through ME first. Do you understand? I'd DIE before I let anything happen to you.

"Okay. I understand."

Good. Now let's go to bed. I'm tired.

She laughed and nodded in agreement. Once again, the young couple fell asleep in the other's embrace.
