A/N: Wow long time since i updated this story. I got held up with reading comic books and writing another one of my fictions. I won't ever leave a story undone however so I came back for this, please review it makes me happy.
(Beast Boy's POV)
When are they going to get home, I mean I've been awake for like an hour and I bet they left long before I woke up. Ugh Robin, get back before I lose the confidence I am feeling right now. Hm I wonder what sparked this new found courage, possibly the near death experience with Slade. Then again it could have also been that dream I had about Terra. "Terra…"
I really am sorry for having to get over you, but it's just that. I had to get over you or I'd likely have cracked by now. Man the pang in my heart is strong, but I have to get over it so I can adequately tell that boy wonder how he makes me feel. Maybe a quick walk around the tower or a tune in to the news may give some answers about how long it will be until my friends return.
I make my way through the empty halls of my home still hugging the pillow I stole from the masked hero's bedroom and I notice something. Standing in the center of the kitchen, back turned to me, and hands fiddling with some device is none other then one of those robot lackeys Slade uses.
"Get out!" I yell transforming into a ram and charging toward the minion at full speed. I hear the loud crack of my horns colliding with his metal frame, even if I've been ill I still haven't lost my touch. I morph back to my human state and watch as the intruder clashes over the counter hitting the back of the couch. "What are you doing here anyways?" the response isn't surprising but it is annoying, the mechanical bad guy just throws a smoke bomb at the ground and as the smoke clears he is no where to be seen.
What was he meddling with anyways? I turn to look at the spot where the villain was once standing to notice a small communication device, much like our teams but with Slade's trade mark on the back. Next to the trinket on the counter was an envelope with Robin's name scribbled on it.
"I guess he was delivering Robin a special message." I wonder what it's about. "Nope, not this time, that whole curiosity and the cat thing. I'm not even going to risk it." I wave off the idea as I start to wonder back to Robin's domain. Then again… "What harm could come of it." I state as I jump back to the contents on the counter at lightning quick speed. As I lift the two parts of the single gift I feel a devious energy run throughout my veins. "Besides, someone's got to make sure that it isn't dangerous."
As I open the sealed parchment I can feel a certain rush of chills, this seems different then some ordinary note. "What the…" I pull out a few pages, they look kind of like medical reports, but they aren't from the hospital. In fact there is no logo in the corner. There are just names, and a lot of them Bix, Alfred, Mitch, Robert, Anna, Clint, Miranda, Beston, and Kyle. Those are all the patients, and instead of a medical review it just appears to have their fears or what appears to be a reaction to something, like some sort of experiment.
Maybe the device left from Slade will explain some of this. I look over the small communicator trying to find a button or switch only to notice none. "What does this mean?" I grab the items and pick up the pillow I had dropped earlier heading back to Robin's bedroom. He'll know what to do, I will just have to wait for him.
(Robin's POV)
We barely managed to catch all of the hostages before they started to run out of the building shrieking and yelling, none the less Starfire. The only way we were able to capture our alien friend without any injury to her was to force a sort of coma on her, luckily for us Raven is able to do that. After she did I asked her why she didn't use that ability more often on criminals, her response was that it disgusts her, she said it's like destroying their mind and free will. I need to find Scarecrow before he strikes again, he's already killed two people one of them a little kid. I mount my bike and put on my helmet ready to start my search when I hear my biotic friend's voice.
"We are going to need your help, besides you need to explain a few things to us." I look over at him, my friend knows me all too well. As I turn my gaze back ahead of me I glare at the road, night has just fallen and I suppose my searches would be harder. "Come on man, besides you're looking after Beast Boy until he's better." I can't believe I forgot about him, damn it I thought I was getting better at this sort of thing.
"I'll meet you guys at the tower; I just have to make one stop for the night." Cyborg seems to stare right through me, obviously he doesn't trust me. "I swear I'll be home soon, I just need to get a news paper." He seems to shrug it off but believes me and gets into the driver's seat of his vehicle. I see Raven sitting in the passenger seat looking out the window with a blank stare about her; I guess that power does get to her.
I rev the engine and speed off down the street to the higher business populated area of jump city. Truth is the only thing I need is a news paper, but the only place that sells a Gotham City paper is a small time coffee shop whose owner grew up there. I park my bike right outside of the store and dismount my motorcycle, the paper's are kept to the right hand side of the door and sure enough there are still plenty of news paper's from Gotham.
"Hey Robin, you ever think of going back to the old city?" I turn to see the old coffee shop owner behind the counter. I remove my helmet giving a smirk as I retort.
"I would, but I'm still not done with things here." He gives a light chuckle then waves as I exit the shop. Returning the protective helm to my head I start off back to the tower, the only factor causing me to return tonight is that of the changeling asleep in my room.
As I enter the elevator and push the button of the floor that the living corridors are on I look over the pages of the paper. A rich man got married; probably a mob guy the only good rich man I ever met in Gotham was Bruce. Most of the residence that escaped have been returned to Arkham. Come on there's got to be something on how they escaped, there it is. Just as the bell rings singling I have reached my destination, I fold the parchment and stick it under my arm as I head to my living space.
"Robin." I turn at the sound of my name and see my gothic friend standing at the end of the hall.
"Yeah, what is it Raven?" she walks over to the elevator and pushes the call button then turns back to me.
"Cyborg and I are working on a cure; we need you to keep Beast Boy out and away from the med bay." I give her a subtle glare; there really is no need to insult him at every turn. "I don't mean it as he's annoying, even if he is. I just don't think the shock of seeing us conduct tests on Starfire will help his fragile state right now."
"Oh." I should have guessed as much, I hope he is doing better. As the elevator door opens I give her a nod and she smirks back at me.
"I'll be sure not to tell anyone about how I found you two cuddled together in bed." She remarks as the portal closes and the elevator makes its way to her desired location. Man that's embarrassing, I should lock my door more often.
Once I make it to my doorway I open it to see the green boy of my affection lying on the bed. I smile at him and he returns the gesture sitting up. "Hey, there you are." He quietly yet happily exclaims.
"You have no idea how happy it makes me to see you." I reply in almost the same tone closing the doorway as I enter the room. I make my way over to the boy on my bed and wrap my arms around the skinny green boy's waist.
"Um Robin, could we talk for a bit?" he asks me somewhat awkwardly, maybe he doesn't remember how he was acting before, maybe he doesn't have those feelings for me and was merely delirious. Well I guess now's a good a time as any to find out.
"Yeah of course." I respond letting go of my grip and setting my hands on the soft mattress. He looks around and blushes remaining silent, I actually find it really cute whenever he does this. "Well what was it Beast Boy?"
"Robin, you know how I had to get over Terra and everything right? Well um I did, and well now I have feelings for someone else. Actually another member of the team, and I know you and Star are like a thing and everything but um…" he sputters out quite quickly and I feel something drop in my gut. Does he want to get with Star or me? I can't tell. "Well um that someone I fell for was um, well it's you Robin." The feeling of the led weight is shortly replaced with that of butterflies and a smile returns to my features. He averts his gaze again and starts to fiddle with the sheets; he's so adorable when he's nervous.
"Do you want to know a secret?" I query and he looks up at me fear deep set in his gaze. "Me and Star, we aren't a thing anymore." His stare turns blank and he drops the fabric from his grasp. "And, I have fallen for you too." He grins widely and I can see a sparkle in his eyes and he responds shortly and filled with hope.
"Really?" I nod leaning in to kiss the green boy's cheek and he squeaks pulling me into a tight embrace. "Sweet!" he exclaims and I return the hug nuzzling my temple against his shoulder.
A/N: So please tell me what you think, i do hope you guys liked it.
