It was a peaceful but cold afternoon. The Teen Titans were eating lunch together with Myth included. They laughed and talked about their feelings as well as shared exciting news about whatever was coming soon. Beast Boy said that there's a new pizzeria opening nearby and he can't wait to visit it soon, Cyborg mentioned a new movie that he really wants to see at the cinema, Starfire was looking forward to going shopping with Myth and Raven, Raven said that she wants to visit her favorite library, and Robin couldn't wait to begin taking part in missions more often. When all of their sights landed on Michelle with anticipation, she noticed their interest and started thinking. Eventually she told them that her dad is planning on taking her to see horses again soon. The Titans got more energetic and began asking her about the day she saw those horses the first time since the subject wasn't covered yet.

Myth told them very shortly that there were five different horses and only three of them walked over to her. Robin added that they met a horse from her drawing and it was friendly. Starfire immediately congratulated her and asked questions about it with disbelief at her young friend's luck. Michelle went back to Robin's room to grab the drawing she made and showed it to everybody. They were amazed at her artistic skills as well as glad that she had found her dream horse.

- Hey, maybe next time we will all go see the horses with you? I would love to learn more about those Earth creatures! - Starfire insisted.

- Why not - Myth agreed.

- Why go somewhere to watch them? I can be a horse too! - Beast Boy walked away from the table and turned into a green horse.

- Not in the living room! - Robin disapproved.

He listened and turned into a human again. The team finished what was left of their lunch. After that, Cyborg and Beast Boy gave out a loud burp.

- Disgusting - said Raven.

Soon after them, Myth burped as well. That was very unlike her so everybody silenced and looked at her. She blushed a little and laughed at herself quietly. They began laughing with her as well.

- I see that their company doesn't serve you - Robin smiled at her with a raised brow.

- It's better than seeing her crying! - Beast Boy noticed.

- Exactly! Wanna play a video game with us, kid? - Cyborg asked her with a big smile while picking up the dirty dishes.

- Well... maybe later? - she plead.

- Alright! We'll come for you, then - Beast Boy agreed and ran to the console to turn it on.

Starfire stayed to help Cyborg out, which meant that Robin and Myth could head out of the common room. Both of them got a hold of their mugs of tea refilled by Raven and left. The younger grabbed her father's hand and walked him down the corridor a bit faster than usual.

- You seem to be in a good mood today - he smiled at her brightly while trying to match her pace.

- You think so? - she looked up at him with interest.

- Yeah, aren't you?

- I... don't know... - she looked down and squeezed his hand tighter.

- Oh... - he wasn't sure what she felt instead. - We will talk about this in a moment, alright? - he promised.

Michelle nodded as they walked inside his room. The door shut behind them. After placing both of their beverages on the bedside table, the dad made their bed to look and feel extra comfy while his daughter was tilting the windows for fresh air. Robin asked her to get under the covers quickly so she doesn't catch a cold and she listened. The weather was getting colder which made Myth feel pretty stable and at home. She loved Winter. Her sight was following the leader everywhere he went with anticipation, but it didn't seem like he'd get on the bed. He was about to leave the room so Michelle stopped him.
