I don't own Teen Titans.
Can't
Starfire woke up, looking around, and rubbing her eyes. She yawned delicately. She rose from her bed and jumped off, for a wonderful morning. She hummed as she removed her pajamas and dressed into her purple suit. She opened her door, heading her way into the living room. Walking along the hall she saw her team mates rooms'. Robins' caught her eye, blushing, she thought of how he was, gung ho.
She entered the living room with delightful light and the smell of waffles greeting her. The sunshine poured in the living room, making it bright and happy. She sat down as she saw Cyborg playing his video game and Raven reading her book. Beastboy always slept in late, so she never actually saw him. Robin was in his room, obsessing over who Slade was.
"Good Morning, it's a joyous day!" Starfire said gleefully.
"Good Morning, Star," Cyborg replied.
Raven was too much into her book, but Starfire got the idea. Starfire got up, flew to the waffles that made her stomach growl. She ate two to satisfy her hunger. Beastboy walked into the room, dazed, and sat next to Cyborg. Robin came in last.
"What's up?" Robin said sitting down in the middle of Raven and Cyborg.
"Just playin' some games," Cyborg said hypnotized by the game.
"Everything is well." Starfire answered.
She stood by Beastboy at the edge of the couch. Then she remembered that she wanted to go to the roof and feel the breeze touch her soft face. She flew out to the roof, thinking of happy thoughts. She sat on the gravel and gazed at the ocean and the wind waving her hair back. She heard footsteps going toward her, a chill ran down her spine.
"Robin?" She asked under her breath, closing her eyes.
Raven sat next to her. Starfire opened her eyes slowly and saw the gray girl sitting next to her.
"Hello, friend Raven." Starfire smiled.
"Hi," Raven replied looking at the ocean.
They sat their silently hearing the ocean and the wind for a long time. Starfire took a few glances at Raven. Raven could feel her stares at the side of her face.
"Raven, how come you have come out to join me?" Starfire wondered.
"Just felt like it, you seemed to leave the living room unnoticed."
Starfire didn't say anything, she stared at her feet that were crossed. She was glad that Raven came out to join her, she didn't want to be alone. Raven got up to leave, Starfire looked at her surprisingly. Where was she going? Starfire thought.
"Where are you going, dear friend?"
"Inside," Raven replied monotone.
Starfire didn't want to ask why, she didn't want to get Raven angry. Starfire laid on the gravel and looked up at the sky. The clouds filled the blue sky, making odd pictures. Then Starfire heard another set of footsteps coming near her.
"Raven!" Starfire looked up at the intruder and blushed furiously.
"Hey Star." Robin came to the rooftop.
"Hi," Starfire blushed even more.
Robin sat next to her, his masked eyes looking out to sea.
Starfire thought of telling her feelings to him, but she didn't want to be rejected by him. She thought of it before, but she never felt so pumped up about telling him, like she felt now. She was ready to tell him, that she adored him deeply of a great cause.
"Robin?" she seemed to cough out.
"Yes?" Robin turned to look into her emerald eyes.
"I-I lo-love to go back inside." Her green eyes widened. Why did she say that? Why didn't she just say she loved him.
"Well I guess you can go back inside." Robin said, looking at her weird.
She got up and started for the door to hide her blushing, then she yelled at him, " I love you!" and she ran inside.
Robin heard what she said, blushed a little, but he had to talk to her. He ran inside and looked for her, he knocked on her room door. She slid it open and her eyes widened. She looked at his masked eyes.
"Can I come in?" he asked breaking the silence.
"Yeah." Starfire closed the door behind him.
"Starfire, we need to talk."
"I'm sorry, Robin, but I really meant what I said back there." Starfire didn't look at him.
"Starfire, I know, but I can't,"
"Can't what?" She began to wonder.
"Can't love you, you're just a friend."
Starfire's eyes lowered, her feelings were hurt, she was scarred emotionally, "Do you at least like me?"
"As a friend, yes." Robin explained.
