You were relatively new to the Teen Titans. You were a little rough around the edges and needed some guidance so the decision was made to take you in. The team consisted of Beast Boy, Raven, Blue Beatle, and the youngest Wayne as Robin. Starfire was the leader of the team and Dick hung around too to help oversee the rowdy group of teenagers.

Things were going well and you’ve finally settled in as you became familiar with the group dynamics. Sure you still kept to yourself mostly but you weren’t completely avoiding everyone - on the contrary it seemed as if you were trying to always be in Dicks presence.

When he was in the kitchen you would enter with the excuse of needing a snack even though you’ve just eaten. In the living room you would find a way to sit next to him on the couch. On patrols you would ask to be partnered up with him. Even with training you found a way to be sparring him instead of one of the other teens with excuses like “you can challenge me better then they can.”

This was starting to become a problem. It was very clear that you’ve developed a crush on him which was harmless enough, although you seemed to be trying to escalate which wasn’t harmless. Dick tried to brush it off as he was an adult and you were a minor, and he was in a very committed relationship with Kori and didn’t want her to get the wrong ideas. He needed to let you down gently before it got to a point that could upset the team dynamics.
