“You modeled? For what?” Robin exclaimed
“A stupid magazine cover. It was before I saw my inner darkness and when I actually cared about being popular” I sighed
“No way” he said
“Way” I looked at the fading stars ”You have to promise not to tell anyone. Swear on my life you won’t”
“Why your life?” he asked
“Because I know you wouldn’t let anything hurt me” I whispered
“That’s true. I wouldn’t let anything happen to you” He said quietly. I looked back at him. He looked into my eyes. I looked where his eyes should be.
“Robin?” I said softly
“Yeah” I looked down, blushing.
“MOVE!” I grabbed him around the waist and flew off the ledge right as the piece he was sitting on broke off.
“Thanks” he breathed
“No problem” I smiled we were hovering fifty feet in the air over nothing. I flew back to the cliff and found a safer ledge. I took Robin’s hand so he could check it out first.
“It’s safe” he confirmed. I sat down, still holding his hand. This ledge was safer, but it was also smaller. We had to sit right beside each other. I was so close to him I could hear his light breathing.
“Thalia, you know on the ship how I said I’d be fine with looking at your face?” Robin asked
“Yeah” I blushed
“Well, that’s because ever since I saw you unconscious on the beach, I really liked you. Your sister is nice and all, but something about you makes me want to know more about you” He admitted
“Really? Usually, when my sister and I meet new people, they’re always attracted to her because she’s prettier. I got the rationality and most of the brains, while she got the more of the looks and sports. I also got the strategizing and a six sense.” I added
“What’s a sixth sense?” Robin asked
“I can’t really explain it. It’s just this feeling I get when something bad might happen” I explained
“Can you sense what’s about to happen?” he asked quietly, leaning in.
“I don’t need to. I already know” I whispered. And as the sun rose that morning, I had my first kiss. The sun rose higher into the sky.
“I’m glad I didn’t go after Cheshire this morning. I would’ve missed out on so much” I smiled
“Yeah. So am I” Robin said
“Am I interrupting something, ‘cause it looks like I’m interrupting something” someone called from the beach. I looked down and saw an archer in red. Great, company.

"For the last time, Erica, NO."
It was a black dress and high socks also balck with my hair tied back and a pink bow.
"You never want to do anything amigo!" Jaimie exclaimed. "Why did you even join the Team?"
"The purpose is gone now." Revenge said, turning away. "If you want me to leave, I will after this mission."
Jaimie stood shell-shocked. "Hombre, I didn't mean--"
"Save it, Jaimie." Revenge said. "Nightwing has a debriefing to do. I've got lives to protect."
The Black Hero jumped the building and was gone.

"How did you come by the information?"
"Private communication with Holly."
"She's still serving our purposes?"
"Yes."

"It looked like a button compared to the size of the wave coming at it."
