Sooo. Hi.:) This is my first fanfic, because it was the first to be typed instead of written down like I usually do. Enjoy.

Four years. It's been four years. Four miserable, aching, depressing years I've lived since Starfire Disappeared. Yeah, I love her, and she loved me too, we were dating before she vanished. Ah, how I wish I knew where she is every day. I don't believe what the police told us,—Beast Boy, Raven, Cyborg, and basically all the honorary Titans— that she apparently died because they couldn't find her. They just gave up hope of ever finding Star. Everyone took it hard, considering that she's the nicest person you will ever meet, but the team and I took it the hardest. They moved on, though, accepting the fact that they wouldn't see Star ever again, but I didn't.

I know she's alive. She wouldn't die that easily. She's Tamaranean, God damn it! She just can't die! Tamaraneans are strong, willful people. She's too strong to just give up and die!

She has one of the purest hearts in the world, fiercely loyal, always happy, no matter what, hated raising her voice to anyone, was always nice and polite to strangers, loved meeting new people, etc. I could just go on and on, since there are many other wonderful characteristics about her that are just amazing.

The moment Raven came into the living room of the Titans Tower, telling me that she couldn't find Star; I got this hollow feeling in my chest, but ignored it and went with Raven to find her. Raven had gone to Star's room because she needed to ask her something that she wouldn't tell me, and knocked on her door and called her name. After a few minutes with no answer, she opened the door with her magic and found that everything was in its place, but the window was open, the curtain blowing slightly in the wind, and Starfire gone. I immediately looked for Beast Boy and Cyborg to ask them if they had seen Starfire. Cyborg had been remodeling his T-car, and Beast Boy had been playing video games in his room. Neither of them had seen Star.

We instantly began to look for her around the tower, hoping she had gone for a walk. When we didn't find her at the tower, we searched the city, but didn't find a trace. The sinking, hollow feeling in my chest began to increase, but I couldn't think about it right now. I had to find Starfire.

Once we had searched every possible place she could have been in, we turned to the police. They took over and inspected every place she had ever been in. This had gone on for almost a year, until the police gave up (yes, they gave up) on ever finding her, much less alive.

I couldn't believe it. They would just give up, when she was still out there somewhere? By that time, I was seventeen, just like the rest of the team. Star would also be seventeen, too. A few months passed after the police gave up (bastards), and around a month before I was to turn eighteen, Bruce Wayne decided to adopt me. Yes, Bruce Wayne, founder and president of Wayne Enterprises. Getting adopted by Bruce also gave me money. Money to hire a private detective to find Starfire myself. I know she's still alive. She has to be.

Anyways, so now that I'm Bruce's son, I work at his company. I'm one of the big guys there, the bosses, you could say. I have my own office and my own secretary too. Speaking of which, I have a new one. She was fired for some reason I don't know, and Bruce hired a new secretary for me. I don't even know what she looks like or what her name is, so I have no idea of knowing who she is. Bruce just told me she would be in her desk in my office (secretary's desks are in their boss' office, facing each other). I was still at home, though.

Now that I'm Bruce's son, I live in his mansion. I have my own wing, and yes, it's great and stuff, but it gets pretty lonely. The only person who I can talk to there is Alfred, the butler. He's very nice and polite, but that's not having a social life.

I still talk to Beast Boy, Raven, Cyborg, and many of the honorary Titans, and like me, they also changed their names. Beast Boy is now Garfield Logan, Raven is Rachel Roth, Cyborg is Victor Stone, Kid Flash is Wally West, Bumblebee is Karen Beecher, Argent is Toni Monetti, etc. Rachel and Garfield fell in love and later got married (who knew?). Victor and Karen married, too, a few months or so after Rae and Gar did.

I, of course, was the Best Man for both the weddings. Rae and Karen picked their Maids of Honor with the hope that I would move on from Star and fall in love. Toni was Rachel's Maid of honor, and she is nice, but we're just friends. Jennifer was Karen's Maid. I knew that she was secretly dating Wally at the time. Wally and I are practically brothers, and I'd never do anything like that to him at all, knowing full well he wouldn't do that to me, so of course there was nothing there, either. And there's no way in Hell that I'll forget Starfire and move on. I know she's still alive. She just can't be dead. And I'll find her.

So ever since Star disappeared, I haven't dated anyone else. In my mind, it's cheating on her if I ever do, so I never did. Guess I'm just waiting for her to come back. That's another reason for why I vowed to myself that I would never fall for another woman, knowing that Star's out there somewhere.

That doesn't mean Bruce or my friends understand, though. You can't imagine how many times Bruce set up blind dates for me, or how many times Victor, Gar, and Wally "accidentally" lost me at a concert or something. In font of some random girl they thought I would love.

Every time Bruce would set up a blind date, I would tell the girls that I wasn't looking for any type of relationship, or I just wouldn't go at all. Every time the guys would "lose" me, I would just text them that I was going home and leave. I've told Bruce and my friends all the time that I'm not going to fall for anyone because Star's still out there, but they just don't listen to me. They still insist that I need to move on. For the guys it hurts them too, I know that it does, because they have met Starfire and know how kind and amazing she is. But they still tell me the same thing.

~*~Flashback~*~

"It's not healthy, man. She's gone. You know it hurts us too, but you have to move on. You won't forget her; you'll just honor her memory. You know she would have wanted you to move on, too," Victor told me as we sat down in our usual booth at the sports bar we go to every month for our Guys Night.

'Oh, no,' I thought to myself as soon as he said that. 'Here we go again.' I forced a smile and sat down. Wally, Gar, and Vic looked at me patiently, waiting for my response.

I sighed. "Guys, what do you want me to say? 'Yeah, you're right; I'll just forget the one person I actually loved.' You know I can't do that." I then listened to my words. "God, I sounded like such a girl right now," I said.

Vic chuckled, before sighing too and saying, "Man, I know. But think about this, do you think Star would like to see you like this? Moping around, being antisocial, and not moving on? I know I wouldn't."

I sighed again, and then told them, "I know, I know. I've told you guys this already, yet it's like you ignore me every time. I know she's not dead, gone or any other word you can think of. I just know she's alive. I have no idea where, but I know she's out there somewhere. And I will find her. The police just gave up on locating her, but I won't. I'll keep looking for her until I die, which hopefully will be in a very long time."

Gar and Wally chuckled before Wally said, "Damn, dude. When you set your mind on something, you don't stop until you get it."

I smiled and shrugged. "Guess it's a talent of mine."

Then a waitress came. She was about our age, maybe a little younger. She had light brown hair and light blue eyes, and was way shorter than my 6', about 4'11. The guys waggled their eyebrows at me, smiling, and I just rolled my eyes at them.

"Hi, my name's Christi and I'll be your waitress today. What do these handsome men want to drink?" she smiled at us.

"Well," Victor said, holding his left hand up to show his ring, "This handsome man would like a coke."

"And this handsome man," cue the ring, "would also like a coke."

Christi looked disappointed, but then looked at Wally and me and smiled brightly.

"What about you two? Would you like cokes too?" she practically purred. Wally and I looked at each other, and—still looking at each other— at the same time said, "Beer."

Gar and Victor laughed, and Christi nodded, smiling and looking at us appreciatively. "Ok, then. Two cokes and two beers. Be right back."

As soon as she left, all three of them looked at me and said, "Well?"

See my point? It's like they're deaf or something.

Bruce doesn't make it easier either. Not by a long shot. He always hires secretaries that he thinks are hot. I don't look at women now, so it doesn't matter. The secretaries don't leave me alone, though. They're always flirting with me, doing and wearing provocative things that never affects me, etc. That's why I get a new secretary often. Each one is a girl Bruce thinks I'll like.

So that's why I'm getting a new secretary today. The last one was a bit, um, inappropriate, and Bruce didn't like it. I'm hoping this one will be controlled and quiet. That's what I need, a quiet secretary who doesn't bother me.

So right now I'm passing the reception desk in the lobby, where the secretary there was trying to get my attention. All women at Bruce's company always want to talk to me, "accidentally" drop things in front of me, things like that. Of course, I ignore them, but that doesn't mean they stop bothering me.

Thankfully, I was the only one in the elevator. I let out a breath of relief and relaxed. The elevator I always took was empty most of the time, and it was perfect for me, seeing as back when I was younger, I loved being by myself, solving my problems in my head, alone with no one to distract me. I still am like that, and that was how I resolved to find Starfire. Alone—with no one bothering me— in my room.

I sighed, wishing for the billionth time that Star was with me. How I missed her. The elevator doors opened then, revealing the floor where my office is at. The 16th floor.

What a coincidence, that my floor was sixteen, and when Star disappeared, we were 16. I actually picked this floor because it reminds me of Starfire. The prime of our lives, being part of the Teen Titans, at sixteen. It reminds me that she's alive. I just don't know where.

I walked to my office, tuning out everyone. I just needed to get to my office, and I would be alone to think and analyze different ways to find ways to find Star.

I opened the door, and stepped inside, remembering to close it tightly after. I sighed in relief and went over to my desk, not noticing my new secretary. It wasn't until I sat down, leaned back in my chair and closed my eyes, and relaxed for about a minute, that I finally opened my eyes and saw her.

Please review! It would mean a LOT to me. Tell me if I missed anything, messed up names, or made any mistakes at all in general. Feedback would be awesome.:D For those of you who like the story, chapter 2 is already thought out and the basics are done, but I need to write it. Should be done in around 2-3 weeks, depending on when the inspiration comes.:)
Bye!
