It Could Only Be One Thing

They were always together. They were Robin-and-Starfire, no longer separate people. They went everywhere together, practically joined at the hip.
Anyone who accused them of being more than 'just friends' was immediately given vehement denies, courtesy of Robin, because Starfire simply didn't understand what they were implying.
Hence, one day, while Robin and Starfire were out roaming the town, their fellow Titans decided to hatch a matchmaking plan. "Alright, so how are we going to go about this?" Beast Boy asked, cracking his knuckles. "Beast Boy, that is very bad for your bones."
"Sorry, Rae."
"My name is RAVEN."
"Yeah, yeah, whatever."
"Beast Boy, do you remember what happened last Sunday?"
"Uh, you strung me by my ears and hung me from the Tower?"
"Do you want a repeat of that day?"
"NO! I mean, uh, no. Sorry, Raven."
"Guys! Can we focus on the plan here?" Cyborg asked, exasperated. He then cleared his throat. "Right. So how's about we get them to go on vacation. Then we set up the scene and all, nudge here and push there, and BAM! There you have it."
Beast Boy grinned. "Dude! Does that mean WE get to go too?"
Raven sighed and thwacked the back of his head. "We aren't going to have fun, Beast Boy. We are going to ensure that those idiots actually do hook up instead of maintaining this awkward situation they don't realize that they're in."
"…Huh?"
"Dumbass."

The front doors of Titan Tower began to open.
"HEY PEEPS!" Beast Boy grinned as he ambushed Robin and Starfire, dropping down from God-knows-where in front of them. Starfire screamed shrilly and blasted him numerous times with her starbolts.
"Ouch – hey – eep! – Oof! – OW! STAR!" Starfire blinked. "My apologies, friend. I was startled by your sudden appearance."
"Serves you right," Robin said dryly. "Anyway…Say, Robin. How long has it been since we went on a vacation?"
Robin frowned. "Is that what this is all about? No, Beast Boy, we are not going to go on vacation."
"Aw, come on, Robin!"
"No."
"Please?"
"No."
"Pretty, pretty please?"
"No."
"With a cherry on top?"
"He hates cherries," Raven called from across the room. "Oh, right. Thanks, Rae!" Receiving Raven's glare, Beast Boy sweatdropped. "I mean, Raven."
"Ahem, anyway…Please with those chocolate sprinkles you always order with your sundae on top?"
"No."
"Pleeeeease?"
"No."
This went on for quite a long time, and they continued until Robin finally reached his room. "Please, Robin, please?"
"No! Why does it matter so much to you anyway?"
"Uh…" Racking his brain, Beast Boy finally thought of a relatively reasonable and largely truthful excuse. He didn't, however, immediately voice it out, instead choosing to blush uncontrollably to add to the effect. It wasn't exactly very hard, either, especially since his excuse was really quite embarrassing. "Beast Boy, are you…blushing?"
"Uh, no!"
"I think you are. What was your reason again?"
"I…I…I…"
"Spit it out, green bean."
"I want to use that opportunity to…confess something."
"Confess?"
"I think…I think I'm in love…with…"
Please don't say Starfire, please, dear God in Heaven don't let him say Starfire. Robin thought, waiting for Beast Boy to finish his sentence.
"I think I'm in love with – "

Ha. A cliffhanger. Ah, you all know whose name he's gonna say. It's obvious, especially if you know my favorite pairs.
Anyway, review and tell me what you think of the rewrite!
