Robin's Revalation
by: Sean McDaniel
Once, in a big tower, shaped like a T, on an island far away from the hustle and bustle of the big city, there was a conflict going on between lovers. "Starfire, can...I please have a word with you?", said Robin. "Of course, Robin, what is it you wish to tell me?", said Starfire. "I...uh...Would yo...I mean, 'wouldyouliketogooutwithme?'. "I'm sorry Robin, I did not hear you...", said Starfire. "Would you like to go out with me?", said Robin, dreading a 'no' answer. "Oh no... um, Robin, I am otherwise engaged..." said Starfire sadly. Robin eyes widened and he looked at her in disbelief, "What?" "I am currently doing the 'dating' with Speedy." Robin felt like his heart was gorged out of his chest, spit on and stepped on. "I...I'm sorry Robin", said Starfire, while running away. This left Robin in an intensely sad mood and he turned around and headed to his bedroom. While going there, BB with all his wisdom, chose to try to make the whole Star/Speedy thing a good thing and ask him how he felt about it. The second the sentence left his mouth, he was slammed against the wall, with Robin boring his 'eyes' into Beastboys, pratically screaming,"How do you think I feel about it?! Why else would I be moping around?!" With that, he gave him one last slam and then ran off, only to slam right into the dark resident of the house. Looking at Robin, Raven asked, "What on earth happened to you? You look like someone gorged your heart from your chest, spit on it and stepped on it." "Want to know what happened to me?! Do you really want to know?!." Raven got up and composed herself, and nodded her head, nicely. Almost to nicely for Robin's taste, given the current situation. "First of all, I asked Starfire to go out with me, but no, she is going out with my best friend, or should I say my ex-best friend! Then, BB, with all his wisdom, chooses to annoy me about it! Gosh darnit, I knew I should have asked...", he quickly caught himself, remembering who exactly he was talking to. Secretly, the boy wonder harbored feelings for the dark angel, but, his kindness to her, would not allow himself to dump Starfire and ask Raven out. He fell from his intense thought by Raven, waving her hand infront his face and calling, "Robin?Robin?". He grabbed her hand, and gave it a slight squeeze, not enough to hurt her, but enough to inform her he is back from his thoughts. "I'm here Raven, you don't have to wave at me like I'm a retard", Robin said with a slight smirk. Raven looked at him, then to his holding her hand, then back to him. Robin noticed this, and snatched back his hand, looking up at Raven, he saw her pull up her hood, hiding a slight blush on her cheek. 'She looks cute when she blushes...OMG, what am I saying? She is like my best friend, I can't think this way of her.' "Anyways, I'm pretty sure Starfire did not wish to offend you Robin, but now, if you'll excuse me, I need some tea. With that, she phased through the floor. Robin and Raven were not aware They had an audience. More specifically, Raven's figurative older brother, and Beast Boy, who finally got off the ground. As usual, he was not aware of what transpired. More specifically, why on earth Robin would get all mad at him for just talking about the latest gossip going on through the tower. "What just happened?", said Beast Boy. After that comment, Cyborg slapped the boy in the head, saying "Your an idiot BB, Let me narrow it down for you. Counting on his fingers, Cyborg said, "One: Starfire just rejectected Robin for Speedy. Two: You just joked around with that very same subject that made him sore, that is why he slammed you against the wall, twice. Three: He just pratically was open flirting with Raven. Get it?" Beast Boy put a finger to his mouth, meaning he was trying to think. "I think so.." Cyborg then got a monster of a plan, litteraly. "Hey BB, I got a plan, concerning two certain birds.."
