You were thankful for Starfire sometimes. It wasn’t that you weren’t thankful for her all the time, it was just some of the stuff she bought you just…wasn’t you. However, when the fateful ‘Blorthog’ holiday came, and she gave out the gifts and bead necklaces she usually gave everyone, you were pleasantly surprised to see a basket full of nothing but bath bombs from Lush Cosmetics.
“Wow, Star. This is actually really nice.”
“You like it? I couldn’t help but see that you had one of these strange fizzing ‘bombs’ in your bedroom when I was searching for you to do the hanging out with Raven and I.”
You smiled at Starfire and bowed your head to allow her to lace the necklace over your head. She cheered.
“Friends, this is wonderful! Another successful Blorthhog. We shall celebrate with our gifts! Come, Raven. Let us commence the meditation using the new books I got you!”
Watching as her and Raven bounded off to Raven’s room, Cyborg and Beast Boy became entranced in their new video game, yelling at each other playfully while still being competitive as hell. Robin looked at you and quirked an eyebrow up, smiling.
“Starfire really went full out for you, didn’t she? There’s gotta be at least two months worth in there.”
Robin wasn’t wrong. The basket was heavy as hell, and the bath bombs were piled high. It made you wonder where the hell she got the money to buy so many bath bombs, but then again, she was apart of the Teen Titans. She was bound to get a discount. Looking at Robin, you grinned, shrugged, and started walking to your personal bathroom, Robin following.
“Eh, I can’t really complain. Bath bombs are kind of my guilty pleasure, but if you mention that to anyone else, I will cut your tongue out.”
Robin held his gloved hands up, smirking at you.
“Your secret is safe with me.”
He crossed his arms and leaned against the door, his gaze softening. An idea popped into his head and he asked daringly.
“Wanna try one?”
You paused from putting the bath bombs in order from their scent, eyes widened as you looked at Robin.
“What?”
“I asked if you wanted to try one.”
“With you?”
Robin blushed and rubbed the back of his neck.
“Well, yeah. I…I, uh, never used a bath bomb before. I’m curious.”
You blushed heavily and looked at one of the bath bombs. (Favorite bath bomb) seemed to gleam at you, and before you even realized what you were doing, you grabbed it from the pile and stood up, asking.
“Are you sure? I mean, I’m down since I never used Lush Cosmetics’ bath bombs specifically, but if you wanna try it with me, I don’t mind.”
He smiled a bit before standing, however jolting when your finger flew into his face, just a couple centimeters from his nose.
“But no funny business, Robin. I’m just as dangerous naked as I am clothed.”
Robin couldn’t help but snicker at that and peeled off his gloves. While you and him had been intimate before (meaning: he’s seen you shirtless before with a bra on during a heated make-out session), he was still nervous because you were gonna be completely naked. As well was he.
“I promise. I won’t try anything. I just want to try the bath bomb with you.”
It was a true statement. As the water in the tub ran and filled, steam slowly rose from the tub. You were becoming nervous. You had never been naked, like fully naked, in front of Robin before. Feeling the self-conciousness settle in, you blurted out.
“Don’t look at me, ok? Just…keep your eyes closed, don’t peek at me, or I really will kick your ass.”
Robin paused his hands, his hands holding the button for his belt and he smiled at you.
“I won’t. I promise.”
You let out a huge breath of relief, making Robin chuckle again, and your eyes looked at him from in front of the mirror, where you were setting up the speaker. His body was toned and muscled, each muscle defined, but you could see the faint lines of old scars, and the pinks of new ones that littered his back and chest.
He was a handsome man, and you had no idea how you got so lucky to be with the one and only Robin. Smiling softly to yourself, you were unaware that he had caught you. However, he didn’t say anything. Robin could be pretty egotistical when it came to you. He enjoyed the attention you gave him, whether if it was from you admiring him like you were right now, or from your praises. Whatever it was, he thoroughly enjoyed it when it was with you.
You looked away to set on a very chill and slow, hip-hop instrumental playlist. The volume was low, and the sound of water splashing made you blush and jolt. This was it. It was either now or never.
‘Come on, (Y/n). You fight crime on a daily basis. You can chill in a bathtub with your boyfriend….naked….most likely pressed up against him………..this is gonna be harder than I thought.’
You blushed as you undressed and turned the lights down low, the romantic setting making your nerves go away just slightly. Robin had his eyes closed, the mask still concealing his eyes, but his head was resting against the back of the tub. His arms were outstretched along the sides, and you smiled softly. He looked relaxed, and if you didn’t look at him enough, you would have though he was asleep. Opening the bath bomb, you kicked off your socks and then took a deep, calming breath.
You were nervous as your foot dipped into the water, the steaming hot water lighting up your feet for a moment with hot pricks and slight stings. However, when you finally got both feet in, you carefully laid yourself back against Robin’s chest. He sucked in a breath before his arms came down around you, making you smile softly as he covered your breasts with his arms in order to make sure he wouldn’t accidentally peek at them when he watched the bath bomb.
His nose brushed against your ear for a moment as he gently nuzzled you, tightening his hold around you before loosening it and relaxing once more. Taking the bath bomb, you smiled and dropped it in the water. Robin opened his eyes to watch as the sound reached his ears, his interest piqued by the foaming cosmetic. Your arms came to rest upon Robins muscular forearms, laying your head back as the smell of the bath bomb and the music relaxed you.
Robin was in bliss. He was relaxed, the smell of the bath bomb was honestly heavenly, but the most blessing thing about this moment was the fact that he had you in his arms. You trusted him enough to actually let him in the tub with you, and it was honestly something that boosted his pride. Robin was completely smitten with you, that was for sure. Robin couldn’t help but murmur in your ear as he held you to him.
“You’re amazing, you know that.”
You looked back at him and smiled, shrugging a bit.
“Eh, I’ve been told by a handsome guy probably once or twice before.”
Robin grinned and played along, saying.
“Oh yeah? And who might this guy be?”
“Oh, just your normal, everyday vigilante by the name of Robin. He’s a pretty big deal in Jump City, I hear.”
Robin grinned and couldn’t help but kiss you, his lips soft and tender against your own. You smiled and kissed him back, one of your hands coming up to gently brush against his cheek, and he pulled back. Resting his head against your forehead, he whispered.
“Thanks for this, (Y/n). This is honestly one of the most relaxing things I’ve done in a while.”
“You’re welcome, Robin. You should treat yourself every once in a while.”
“I have you to do that, don’t I?”
“Shut up, you sap.”
He laughed quietly. Needless to say, you weren’t surprised that some of your bath bombs went missing after that.
