Sunrise

(A/N: This is my first fanfic. Please R&R! Enjoy.)

Chapter 1: Dreams

Starfire of Tameran sat on the rooftop of the giant T at 5: 30 in the morning. Her long, tanned legs swung restlessly over the edge of the tower as she waited for the sunrise. When it came, she was bathed in a soft pink glow that illuminated the figure that was approaching from behind. Starfire's senses were instantly alert, sensing the boy wonder's arrival.

"Good morning, friend Robin," the cheery Tameranian greeted.

"You're up early . . ." Robin replied.
"I wished to observe the 'sunrise', that is alright with you, yes?"

"Of course," Robin gave a small chuckle. "This is my favorite time of day" He paused then looked down at Starfire. In the light glow of the sunrise, his teammate looked amazing. The early morning sun highlighted her blazing hair. The light gave her lithe limbs and her large jade eyes a radiant shine.

"Beautiful." Robin exhaled sharply when he heard Starfire voice his exact thoughts about her.

". . .Yeah, absolutely."
"Earth is a most wondrous place. On my planet, we do not have sights like this."
"I told you, best planet I've ever lived on . . ." Robin sat down next to his friend. "Star, Tameran must be pretty amazing."

"Yes . . ." the alien girl sighed happily. She turned and looked at Robin. Emerald Eyes met masked ones and Robin felt as if she had just reached into his mouth and had stolen the air he was breathing. Starfire has got to be the most special girl in the universe . . . thought Robin. He traced her with his eyes, taking in all of her features. I could . . .. I SHOULD just . . . tell her I . . .. tell her how much I lov- uhhhh - like her-

"Robin!" Starfire's voice broke through his thoughts.
"Yeah? What's wrong?"

"I am not so sure I-" Robin couldn't take it anymore. He had to do something to show Star how he felt. Quickly, Robin turned and grabbed a still-talking Starfire.

"Robin what- OH!" The feel of Robin's soft lips on her own cut off Starfire. For a moment she was stunned. Then, slowly, Starfire closed her eyes and responded, deepening the already passionate kiss. After a few minutes, Robin pulled away. "Starfire, I'm so sorry, I have no idea what just happened."

"Do not be sorry friend Robin. That was most enjoyable."

"Star, remember how I told you I'm not good at telling you how I feel? Well . . . um . . . StarfireIloveyouandthinkyouarethemostamazingpersonever" Robin blurted, then blushed. Starfire smiled and stared at him, searching for the eyes behind the mask. She leaned in close as if to whisper in his ear.

"TIME TO GET UP! Y'ALL KNOW YOU WANT SOME OF MAH WAFFLES and none of that nasty tofu junk," Starfire screamed into Robin's ear. Her voice sounded strangely like Cyborg's.

". . . . . . ."

Startled, Robin jumped up and fell onto the floor with a thud.
