Authors Note: I'm going to try to fix this…

Starfire pulled Robin onto the roof. She stood there for a moment before clasping her hands together, "You know Robin, friend…" Robin winced at the word 'friend', he didn't like Star using that word, because he wanted to be more than just a friend to her. "There is something, I feel, I must tell you," Star's face was so innocent. Robin's eyes widened, if she said what he thought she was going to say… Well then, she must have had a lot more courage than he did… Her face looked troubled, "Robin I love—" she chickened out, "I love Mustard." It tumbled out of her mouth, one word away from what she wanted to say; she looked down at her feet, shyly. Robin looked at her, he understood, he knew what she wanted to say, but he didn't have the nerve to say it either. Maybe it didn't need to be said, she loved him, and he loved her. How could it be different? But when it came to words… Well, Mustard wasn't Robin's name…

Star tried to stop herself from blushing, Robin always seemed so sure of himself. That was why he was her best friend. Even though she didn't understand fully, she knew that mustard had just become code for Robin. She knew her feelings; with the way her powers worked, she had to. But, then why couldn't she put her feelings into words? Star gave up, "Come friend, let's join our team in the usual…"

"Yeah, I'm dying to know if Beastboy can beat Cyborg at CarRace tonight…" Robin laughed. Star smiled sweetly. Just as Robin had followed her up to the roof he followed her down from the roof. Robin wanted to tell her that he knew what she had wanted to say, and that he felt the same, but no words would come. He shrugged, maybe tomorrow…

As they entered the kitchen/living room area, they could hear Beastboy yelling at Cyborg, "WHO ARE YOU KIDDING? YOU CHEATED! NO WAY COULD YOUR CAR GO THAT FAST!"

"Oh yeah? Prove it," Cyborg grinned smugly.

"Oh yeah? Well, then I call a rematch!" Beastboy demanded for the third time that night.

"Fine by me!" Cyborg said, eagerly picking up a controller.

Raven was levitating and meditating in the corner, only one of her eyes was open. She found Beastboy's false accusations toward Cyborg somewhat amusing. As she noticed Starfire and Robin coming into the room, she closed her eye, she wouldn't want to ruin her reputation… Star walked over levitating up next to Raven, "You couldn't tell him, could you?" Star just shook her head. Starfire had ended up telling Raven everything because Raven was the only girl on the team. Raven, however, wasn't really much help. But she was a good listener, and sometimes, it felt good to know that someone else understood. Yet, a lot of the time, it wasn't enough. So they sat/floated there, and watched Cyborg cream Beastboy a fourth time.

Meanwhile, Robin sat dejectedly on the coach; thinking over what had just happened. Why hadn't he just told her? He had the perfect opportunity, alone on the roof… The whole thing was ridiculous; both of them knew that Starfire hadn't dragged Robin all the way up to the roof just to tell him that she loved mustard. Unless, well, it was Starfire… But, he had been so close to telling her! He was always 'so close' but never close enough. Sometimes he wondered, if he really did love her, shouldn't he be able to tell her? After all, he knew she liked him back… Or was it just his imagination…? Did she have a boyfriend back in…? He sat there disgusted with himself. "Robin, are you among the living, friend?" Star's voice asked, she sat down next to him on the couch.

"Yeah man, you don't look to good," Cyborg commented, setting down his game controller.

"Did you die or something?" Beastboy asked.

Raven lightly smacked him on the head, without bothering to explain why. She turned and walked off. Beastboy stood there puzzled for a while.

"Mustard? I mean, Robin?" Starfire asked.

Finally Robin snapped out of his little trance, Starfire had just called him Mustard… Well THAT was new… Hey wait, that meant that maybe—but he didn't want overanalyze it… "Yeah Star?"

She blushed, smiling, "Um…Good night…" She stood up.

"Right, goodnight," he addressed the rest of the team, "Titans—bedtime! You never know what's going to come at us tomorrow…"

"Ah man, since when do we have a bedtime?" Cyborg asked Beastboy as they filed out of the room.

Robin sat on the couch, waving good night to Starfire as she left. Once he was alone he thought to himself, "I hope some courage comes tomorrow…"
