Starfire stared out her Window, watching the sun slowly set into the multi-coloured horizon. She sighed as she allowed a tear to slide down her cheek. 'Where had it all gone wrong?' she asked herself in her thoughts. 'At one moment boyfriend Robin and I' The word 'boyfriend' made her sobs a little louder '... were playing and doing the romantic actions in the park of amusement, the next, I discover that he and friend Raven are already doing the going out together secretly."
She found out when she was going to give Robin a little surprise in his room, but ended up finding him and Raven tangled up and making out. The memory brought sorrow and tears to her eyes. She tried to float toward her bed to sleep, but fell to the ground. Her emotions were too saddened to 'feel the joyous wonder of flight' as she had told Raven all those months ago. So she folded herself into a ball on the floor and let her silent sobs drift her to sleep.
Down the hall, our favourite little green changeling was walking toward the main room to get a little evening tofu dinner when his sensitive elf like ears heard some soft sobs coming from the direction of Starfire's room. "I wonder what's going on." He said as he walked over to Starfire's door and placed his ears on it. He heard the crying stop. "I wonder what's wrong. I hope she's alright." He then heard a thud and the sobbing became louder. Ok now he was really worried. He had to know what was going on. "Star... Dudette... Star?" He knocked, then banged and finally he resolved to open the door and let himself in, and if nothing was wrong Starfire would understand, that he was only worried... right? He thought about it for a moment but finally decided to open the door. When he did, he saw was the cutest and most pathetic thing in the world. Starfire was curled into a ball on the ground fast asleep. He just stood there admiring how cute the sleeping figure on the ground was. He couldn't help the small smile that spread across his face as he walked over to her and picked her up bridal style and Starfire's body seemed to cuddle up with his. His smile enlarged when he set her down and she started fidgeting like a baby wanting to be picked up. He tucked her in and she responded with a soft sigh. He then turned to leave, but had a feeling that all was not complete. 'How about a goodnight kiss.' He leaned in, but stopped and thought how angry Robin would be if he ever found out. 'No, she's Robin's girlfriend man snap out of it. Besides Robin would most likely tie me to a rope on the ceiling and use me to replace his old punching bag.' He shuddered at the thought but couldn't help the lingering feeling '...but how about a little friendly peck? It is friendly, right?" With that confirmed he gave her a very friendly peck on the lips and skipped out of the room. What Beast boy didn't realise was that after he left, Starfire slightly murmured his name in her sleep.
The next morning things went on as usual. Beastboy and Cyborg were arguing about the murdering of meat in the kitchen, Robin was watching them eating a bowl of cereal and Raven was in the corner reading a book. The doors of the main room opened to reveal a groggy Starfire. She walked to the fridge, pulled out the milk, and proceeded to take a bowl and poured in the milk and cereal seemingly not caring about anyone else in the room.
"Hey what's up Star?" Beastboy greeted, but received no reply. He just shrugged it off and resumed his argument. Robin got up, put his plate in the sink and walked over to Raven. He whispered something to her, she blushed a little and they both walked out of the main room. They all watched them leave a little bit confused. Then Starfire ran out of the main room crying.
"What's up with them?" asked Beastboy. "I don't know, hormones." "Who's gonna check on Star" "Rock, paper, scissors for who's going to check on her?" Cyborg asked "Rock, Paper, Scissors!" they shouted. Beastboy threw paper while Cyborg threw scissors. "BOOYAH! I'm the master uh, you're the loser uh, now get out of here, I've got some chicken wings to fry." Beastboy walked away in shame but not before shouting "MURDERER!"
Starfire sat on her window ledge crying softly to herself when a knock came from the door. "Hey, Starfire," Beastboy's voice "I have a feeling you might want to talk so; I came to check on you. Can I come in?" "You may." The door slid open and Beastboy walked in and sat next to Starfire. "Ok Star, spill, what's up with the sudden mood swing. One minute you're doing everything as usual, the next, you run out of the main room crying. Is something up?" Beastboy asked as he walked over to her. "I do not wish to speak of it." "Come on Star at least..." "I SAID I DO NOT WISH TO SPEAK OF IT!" she screamed her eyes flashing a deadly green, but Beastboy still pressed on "Look Starfire, we've known each other for a long time, and to be honest, other than Cyborg, I consider you my best friend." He paused, looked down and grabbed her hands which made her cool down a bit "Best Friends know when everything is good or bad, and things are defiantly bad. So, spill it." Starfire immediately buried her face in his chest and cried as hard as she could as Beastboy awkwardly patted her back.
"Oh friend, I have never felt so disheartened in my life." "Ok we've established that, but what's the real problem" Starfire sniffed and then confessed "Robin and Raven are doing the going out together in secret." "What? Wait so you telling me that they're having a secret relationship. How did you find out? Did they tell you?" "I wanted to surprise Robin, but I instead saw them kissing." "Do they know you know?" "I do not think so. Friend Beastboy tell me the truth, am I not good enough for Robin's attention." "Of course you are, heck, it's Robin who's not good enough." He paused and they stared at each other, then he continued "He doesn't realise what a loving, caring, kind hearted person you are." Starfire blushed a little at that. "You brave, reliable, loyal, and most importantly, you think of others before yourself." They slowly started to lean closer together "...and if Robin doesn't see that, well he's blinder that a bat." There was little space now "... and to be honest, I was actually a little jealous." "Friend Beastboy..." Starfire sighed. "Yeah?" "What are we doing?" They stopped about half an inch from each other and just stared. "To be honest, I have no idea." The parted both blushing madly. An awkward silence. "Um... uh, is that Cyborg calling? Coming Cyborg!" Beastboy shouted as he stood up and backed out of the room.
Starfire sighed happily and relaxed onto the Window frame staring at the place where Beastboy had just stood. Beastboy may never know it, but he just cured her sadness, and started a new crush for a certain little green changeling.
