You were one of the artists at Haly's Circus. You and Dick grew up together, lived together, although you were adopted by different families. You always hung out together, studied together. You worked hard to earn a scholarship to his school.
Unlike Dick, you were adopted by a middle-class family. While Dick's first car was a sports car, yours was more economical. Not that you complained; your parents gave it to you with love, care, and effort. It probably wasn't even Bruce who chose Dick's car.
You started dating when you entered high school. That's when Dick told you he was Robin, and you began struggling to keep up with him. One day, there was an explosion in the laboratory where you were doing your internship.
You were in a coma for a few weeks. When you woke up, you discovered you had powers. Dick took you to the Teen Titans, and that's when things changed. You noticed he was more distant, looking at Kory in a different way. He always went on missions with her, and until then, you thought it was because they were leaders.
Until tonight. He needed all the Teen Titans for this mission because Deathstroke was attacking. Kory lost control and overloaded. Dick quickly ran to her, picking her up when she fell.
You paused for a few minutes to observe the scene, then were hit in the stomach and thrown. Dick still hadn't noticed, despite his scream of pain. This was wrong; he was your boyfriend, so why was he paying more attention to someone else?
Then Cyborg screamed your name and ran to you while Beast Boy and Raven tried to hold Slade back. When Dick heard Cyborg screaming his name, he realized the mistake he had made. He took Kory to an alley and gently placed her on the ground before coming to you.
You were bleeding as Cyborg tried to help you. Dick quickly ran over to you, placing his hand over your wound.
