I Will Always Love You
Chapter: 1
How Long?
By: xStarfirex
A red haired girl walked through the T-tower door and saw a boy wonder, a goth, a robot, and a green skinned boy huddled up in the living room.
"What's going on?" asked Starfire.
"Starfire! When did you get home?" asked Cyborg.
"Just now. What's going on? What are you guys talking about?"
"Um….well….we were….um…." Beast Boy started.
"Robin has something to tell you!" said Cyborg.
Raven, Cyborg, and Beast Boy took a step back as Starfire walked toward Robin. Rae, Cy, and BB had smiles on their faces as they watched Robin and Starfire.
"What was it that you wanted to tell me?" asked Starfire to Robin.
Rae, Cy, and BB looked at each other and decided to give them a little privacy and left the room. They stuck their ears to the door and tried to listen. Starfire waited for an answer.
"Um…(gulp)….Starfire, I don't know how to say this so I'm just gonna say it straight out. I LOVE YOU! I don't know how it happened or why it happened but since the day I met you, I knew I loved you. I can't control my feelings, every time I'm around you, my hearts beats too fast and too loud and I wanna impress you anyway I can. I know I'm not perfect, but just give me on shot to show you I care! I love you with all my heart! I always have and I always will!" said Robin. There was a pause and Starfire's jaw dropped.
"Wow, I didn't know you cared so much, because that's the same way I feel for you," said Starfire.
"You do?"
"Yes, I love you, very much and you are perfect...to me."
Meanwhile-
"Can you hear anything?" asked Beast Boy. Raven, Cyborg, and BB were trying to hear what Robin and Starfire were saying. The door was just too thick for them to hear anything.
"Ssshhh!" said Cyborg, "I can hear some faint…..…...nope, never mind, can't hear anything either."
Just then the door opened knocking Raven, Cyborg, and Beast Boy to the ground. They were shocked to find Robin and Starfire holding hands.
"What are you doing down there?" asked Starfire.
"Um…nothing. What are you doing holding Robin's hand?"asked BB.
"Beast Boy, Raven, Cyborg, there's something we have to tell you," said Robin.
"We're a couple!" said Starfire proudly. Raven, Cyborg, and Beast Boy's jaws dropped.
"Really?" asked BB. Starfire and Robin nodded.
"It's about time," mumbled Raven. Starfire and Robin gave her a 'whatever' look.
The Next Day
Starfire and Robin went to the park to take a walk.
"Do you love me that much?" asked Starfire breaking the ten minute silence.
"Did you not pay attention to what I said last night? Yes, I love you with all my heart," said Robin.
"Oh, just making sure," said Starfire with a giggle.
When they entered the T-tower, Cyborg and Beast Boy were fighting about the moldy tofu in the kitchen while Raven was somewhere in the tower meditating.
"Man, throw that moldy tofu away!" yelled Cyborg to Beast Boy.
"Dude, this tofu is my food! There's nothing else in the fridge but meat! I don't eat meat, I've been most of those animals you guys eat!" snapped BB.
"Watever! Just throw that smelly stuff away!" Cyborg yelled back.
"Let's go upstairs, Starfire," said Robin.
"What? I can't hear you over the noise those two are making!" said Starfire.
"Let's go upstairs!" yelled Robin.
"What? still can't hear you!" Robin motioned his finger up.
"Oh," said Starfire. They went upstairs.
"Wow, what big mouths those two have," said Starfire and laughed. A few minutes later, they hear some faint ringing.
"I think that's the phone downstairs," said Robin. They rushed downstairs and raced to the phone on the kitchen counter. Cyborg and BB were still screaming at each other.
"Hello?" said Robin. All he can hear was some faint mumbling.
"Hold on," Robin said and he put his hand on the receiver.
"SHUT UP YOU TWO! I CAN'T HEAR WHAT THE PERSON IS SAYING," screamed Robin to Cyborg and BB.
"Sorry," said Cy and BB in a low voice. Robin removed his hand from the receiver to talk on the phone.
"Sorry about that," Robin said.
"Robin, its Bruce, we have a little problem."
"What is it?"
"Do you think you can take a leave of absence from the titans for a while?" asked Bruce.
"Why? What's happening?"
"It's Slade, he's going on a stealing rampage. I think he has a plan to build something deadly."
"Yeah, of course I'll help. How long will this take?" asked Robin.
"About a year."
"What! I can't be gone for that long!"
"Sorry Robin, but we've been after this guy for years and this might be our only chance to finally get him."
"Fine."
"Good. Be at the Batcave at eight. Our mission starts tonight," said Bruce and hung up. Robin sighed. At this point, Raven was already in the room.
"You guys, I have to leave for a while," said Robin to the titans.
"What? Why?" asked Cyborg.
"Slade's at large and is planning something big, me and Batman have to stop him. While I'm gone, Cyborg, you're the leader."
"Cool!" said Cyborg.
"How long will you be gone?" asked Starfire. There was a pause.
"I'm sorry Star, I won't be here for a year," said Robin, "I have to leave tonight." With that, Robin left the room. Starfire stared at the floor and felt a tear escape from her eyes.
"It's ok, Starfire," said Raven. Starfire sighed and went upstairs. She knocked on Robin's door.
"Robin? It's Starfire, can I come in?"
"Yeah," said Robin.
"So you're really leaving."
"I'm sorry. I promise when I get back, we're going to spend a whole week together on vacation. Just us," said Robin.
"Promise?"
"I promise," said Robin, "but right now, I have to go. I promise I'll call every week ok?"
"Ok. One more thing, promise me you'll love me forever no matter what."
"I promise."Robin and Starfire kissed. He broke the kiss and said good-bye to the titans and walked out the door. And just like that, Starfire's life just became lonely.
