Nightwing just stared at me. His usual interested face was waiting for me to say more. But that face didn't last long.
"Wait, so your being forced to become mates with some random dragon? Gosh, that's sad. If that ever happened to me I would be completely devastated. How are you not going crazy?" I almost laughed at his words.
"Well I guess I'm used to not going crazy, you know with all the crazy things that happen in my life." He looked saddened at his.
"Wow, your life must suck!"
"For your information Mr.Night Fury. My life before a certain age was perfect!" He looked at he with amusement, and then winked.
"Why are you winking at me?" He smirked that devious smirk.
"You should go back and check what you just said." I thought a minute, and realised what I had just said. My face blushed, but of course no one could tell.
"I....um.... well I meant that when I reached nine my life went downhill! And ever since then I have been living in he'll on Earth!" Why is he still laughing?
"Sorry, it's just that you entertain me." "Well I'm glad I can help."
"So enough about me...what is your life like?" He seemed to think a bit.

Nightwing's pov

Well what should I tell her? Oh I know!
"Well, for starters I am the fastest Night Fury around, and I fly in different ways for a hobby. And as for friends, your my only friend. And lastly I have no family, my father abandoned me and my mother when I hatched, and my mother died five years ago because of an illness." She just looked at me with a dropped jaw. I just let her stare.
"Wow...I had no idea, now I feel bad! I was ranting on about my problems when yours are worse than mine! I'm sorry!" Why is she worrying? And she tends to say sorry a lot.
"Ha don't be. It doesn't really bug me." "Wait so, why don't you have friends? Your like a really fun and loving dragon. How, How in the world do you have no friends?"
"Well to be honest, it's not their fault I don't have friends. Its mine. I'm the one that pushes them away. I am the one who doesn't want to be their friend. But don't get me wrong, I am not the type to be like, "'m one is good enough to be my friend."' Its just a problem I have I guess...." I looked down at the ground. I knew she was looking at me, but when I looked back up she was......crying?

Starfire's pov

I can't believe that I'm crying! His story is so sad! He doesn't understand that he could be happy if he wanted to be.
"Why are you crying?" Nightwing said staring right at me.
'Gosh I just keep embarrassing myself.'
"Well.... it's just....," I wipe the tears away. "You story, it makes me sad that your sad, and I know you can be happy, but I justifying get why you don't try to be happy." He just laughs. I have noticed that he laughs at me a lot.
"Well yeah I guess, but let's not worry about me. But I do know what we need to worry about." I gave him a confused look.
"Food, I am starving! We should get some food." He started to get up, and I did to. We stretched and then I followed him to a beach by the ocean.
"Um, what if someone sees us together?" I didn't want people to see us together at all, and being at a beach is public.
"Don't worry no one will, and if someone stops down then we will hide. I those trees you see, they should cover us." Why? Why is he smirking!
"Oh... okay. So what do we do?" He just looked at me confused.
"What haven't you ever fished before?" I felt stupid because no, I haven't fished. Never in my life.
"Well no... we Star Furies don't fish, well at least most of us don't. We have others do the fishing for us."
"Wow that's sad. Here follow me, I will show you how." He started walking up to the water.
"Now watch, fish are quick swimmers, they can be a bit hard to catch, but there is always a way to grab one." I watched as he slowly walked into the water. He put his head in the water and just sat like that until... *SNAP* Nightwing head shot out of the water and he had a fish in is mouth struggling to escape. We walked up to me, and placed the fish in front of me.
"Here you go." He smiled and walked back to the water.
"Hey wait you should eat it! You caught it, and you font have to fish for me." I brought the fish with me as I walked back up to Nightwing.
"No, you eat it, But not yet. Wait till I get my fish. Then after we eat the fish, Then you can try and catch one." I only nodded and sat and watched once again as he caught another fish. He walked back to me with a fish in his mouth and smiled.
"Okay now we can eat." He ate the fish in one bite, and I ate mine in two. I noticed something ad he ate. At one point he had no teeth!
"Wait! Nightwing stop!" He froze and looked at me.
"What is it?"
"Your teeth! What happened to your teeth!" He gave out a toothless smile, and I gasped.
"Ah! Their gone!" He started laughing like crazy! He started rolling on the ground laughing. He sat back up only to see my confused face.
"Well as you can see I have no teeth, well wanna look?" I was hesitant of his offer to look inside his mouth. I inched closer slowly until I saw his entire moth. And right when I was about b to get any closer, rows of pearly whites flashed in my face. I jumped back a yelped in surprise. He started laughing again. Ugh, this guy is starting to bug me...
"Wait, so what happened to your teeth?" He still laughed.
"I have retractable teeth. See." He started retracting his teeth. They were there, and then they were back. I stared in awe.
"Wow your toothless! Haha! Oh I have the perfect nickname for you!" He looked surprised.
"Oh and what's that?"
"TOOTHLESS!"
"No, no, no! You are not going to call me Toothless!"
"Aww but why! Only I will call you that!" He rolled his eyes, and I laughed.
"Fine, but I wanna give you a nickname as well." I was a little nervous with he name he is gonna pick.
"Well I was going to call you Spot!"
"WHAT WHY SPOT!"
"Because your wings have spots on them duh!" He started laughing..again! Gods does this guy's laughing box ever break!
"Well it's only fair because your calling me Toothless, so I'm going to call you Spot." I just rolled my eyes and laughed a long with Toothless.
