Chapter Four
After unpacking I fix the room so Robin doesn't have to take the couch tonight and go up to my wall with some old photos of my time in Gotham. I was known for taking selfies and a lot of them both while I was with my mom robbing banks and with Batman and Robin stopping Joker. When I was a kid I'd never take my job seriously, it was all just fun. That was something I got off my mom.
I smile at the photograph of me and Robin sitting on the edge of a building with the sunset and the city in the background. We were 14 and were dating at the time.
I put it on my wall then take out another photo of me and my mom mid-robbing a jewellery store. I've got lots of pearls around my neck and my fingers are covered in giant diamond rings. She's in the background looking out the window at the red and blue lights with two bags in her hands.
The last time I seen my mom was in Arkham last year, I was seeing Joker and I passed her and she started yelling at me saying I was a failure of a daughter. I just continued walking beside Batman acting like I was fine but I wasn't, she broke my heart. I haven't seen her since.
Someone knocks at my door and I turn around and look at Robin. He has a bag in his hand from my favourite sushi place.
I walk up to him and take the bag from him and take out a large sushi box and a few bottles of milk. He looks at the wall of my room where I've stuck up old photos and I glance at him.
He chuckles, "I remember that." He smiles pointing at the one where we jumped out of the shadows and got Batman in the shot, "He killed us for that."
"Yeah he really hates his photograph being taken." I smile sadly and he looks at me with his usual expression. The brooding one.
"Is it Starfire?" He asks and I look at him. He's clearly worried about me.
"What do you mean?" I ask pretending I don't know what he's talking about but I do and it is Starfire that's bothering me. I just came out of nowhere and she clearly likes Robin and I'm taking away the attention from her. I know what it's like to loose someone you love.
"You know what I mean." He says making me look down.
"I just don't want to take you away from her." I say truthfully.
Robin shakes his head, "Me and Star only kissed once and I thought I liked her but I didn't, I'm still into you..." He says making me look up at him with glazed eyes. Please don't do that...
"Robin..." I trail off not knowing what to say. I still love him too but if we took off from where we left our relationship it would destroy what the team have, "Starfire likes you and she was here first. We can't date unless she's ok with it." I say. I want to date him but I can't if Starfire is here and loves him too.
He sighs, "Fine but I'm not giving up on us." He says then leaves me alone and I wipe my tearful eyes then close my door and look out my bedroom window. What do I do?
