When Love Is Turned Into A Weapon, Book 3. Mistresses Of Sin

Chapter Six - This Is Me

Nightwing walks in to check on everyone at the medical bay. "M'gann?" He notices Miss Martian sitting by Robin.

"He loves him, right?" She blurts out grievously.

Nightwing looks at her with confusion and concern. He becomes aware of her eyes, red and balled, her cheeks dampen from tears. "Is everything alright, M'gann?" Nightwing tried to dodge her question as he walks over to her and tries to comfort her.

"He does, doesn't he." This time she asks almost aggressively and aggravatingly.

"M'gann, I don't know what you're talking about."

"Dick, I'm not stupid." She scolded. "Does Robin love Superboy?"

Nightwing paused, he was cornered by the martian. "Ummm." He tries to say nothing attempting to evade the question once more but is bound to fail by the glare Miss Martian is giving him.

Nightwing sighs and surrenders. "Yes, he does." He was too ashamed to answer.

M'gann and turned away from Nightwing to face Robin as he lies on the bed. She places her hand on Robin's. "Then I will withdraw myself from this picture."

Surprised, Nightwing gasped.

"Superboy loves Robin, and Robin loves Superboy." She gets up from her seat beside Robin and turns to face Nightwing. "I am pleased." She tries to smile at him and embraces him.

Nightwing embraces back. "I'm so sorry."

"There's nothing to be sorry for. I'm not the kind of person who would stand in the way. Besides, there's no way I can win Superboy against Robin." She admits defeat and makes her way out of the room.

"Ummm, how do you know for sure Superboy loves Robin?" Nightwing asks right before she places her hand on the door knob.

She turns back in the direction of Nightwing and giggles. "It doesn't take martian powers to see it." After that, she turns back towards the door and leaves.

Nightwing smirks and shakes his head. He makes his way towards where Wally laid and took a seat beside him. He exhales a sigh of longing as he places his hand on Wally's forehead and strokes it through his hair until he reaches the crown of his head. "I hope you wake up soon." The young bat murmurs. He stays beside him and intends to stay until he he wakes.

....

Superboy decided to zeta to the famous Gotham beach. The beach became very symbolic to him right after he had a moment with his Robin. There, he decided to watch relax and enjoy the public company. The sounds children playing and cheering, cars running, grills sizzling and the sounds of waves crashing onto the sand made Superboy calm. He inhales a deep breath as he sits politely on a bench and the beach before his eyes.

"I wish Robin were here." He sighs sadly to himself.

"Are you alright over there?" A familiar voice speaks out beside him. She walks closer and takes a seat beside him. "Forgive me if I'm wrong but I couldn't help but notice that you seem a little upset." She positions herself comfortably right beside the young muscular man. "It's not likely to find someone that looks that down here at Gotham beach."

Superboy turns his head towards her direction and recognizes the complexion. "M'gann?" He gasps.

"Hi Superboy." She smiles.

"What are you doing here?" Conner almost sounded like he was scolding at her.

"I was worried about you." M'gann confessed.

Superboy sighed and looked away from her direction.

M'gann frowned and placed a hand on his shoulder. "Tell me what's wrong." The friend urges.
