Disclaimer: I do not own Teen Titans
Third POV
Moonlight leaked through the purple curtains, allowing pale light into the dark room and illuminating the purple, circular bed inside. It was a quiet and peaceful night. The moon aloft in the starry night sky and the criminals seemed to be behaving tonight. Allowing Jump City's protectors, the Teen Titans, to get some well deserved sleep. Well, at least do whatever they wished as a soft sigh was audible from the darkness.
Starfire let out a light moan as Robin attacked her neck with little nips and kisses. The alien princess was currently laying on her back on her strange Tamaranian bed with Robin, the Batman's former sidekick and now Titan leader, looming over her. She absolutely loved it when Robin was passionate like this and openly displaying his affection. They had been dating for a couple weeks now, and things were wonderful.
Running her hands through his ebony locks, Robin stopped his torture of her neck and looked into her eyes. Starfire returned his gaze and smiled softly up at him. "I love you Robin" she said lovingly, true adoration shining in her eyes.
Robin returned her smile and replied with equal affection "I love you too Starfire." Then he leaned down and gave her a sweet kiss on the lips which she eagerly returned. After they broke apart for lack of oxygen, Starfire looked up at Robin and couldn't rid herself of a thought that kept crossing her mind. No matter how she tried, Starfire could simply not stop wondering what color his eyes were. She had always wondered, but it was killing her right in this moment not to be able to see them. Not to be able to see the emotion lacing them.
Reasoning with herself, she thought we are the boyfriend and girlfriend now, surely he will not mind. Making up her mind and summoning her courage, Starfire slowly reached her hand up to his mask. Running her fingers lightly around the edge, she traced the outline of the black material while looking into where his eyes would be. Silently asking what she could not aloud.
Robin nodded his head in silent agreement, and gave her lips a light kiss. Closing her eyes, Starfire let out a sigh and bit her lower lip. Then she gripped the edge of his mask and slowly started to peel it off his face. Holding her free hand, Robin gave it a comforting squeeze.
Fully removing his mask, she turned and placed it on her nightstand. She then turned back towards him, starting to raise her eyes up as she held her breath. Finally about to fulfill her long anticipated question and...
Starfire's POV
I wake up with the jolt and sit straight up in my bed, causing my pillow to fall to ground and giving me the head rush. My heart racing and body drenched in sweat, I pant as my clothes are doing the clinging to me. I cover my face with my hands shakily and remember why I had awaken.
It was Robin... again.
He has been haunting my schlorvaks recently. Actually, for the past few weeks and almost every single night. Always it happens in this order; we will do the kissing, tell each other we love one another, and then I will do the removing of his mask. Always so tantalizingly close to the hidden color of his eyes, but never actually doing the getting to see them. It drives me the crazy!
Although it does not help I am in the very strange problem. You see, I love Robin... as more than my best friend. I have ever since I met him. Trying to give him the 'hints', I constantly seek him out and touch him the most, but I do not think that he gets the 'idea'. I do not know how he feels about me, so I do not know what to do besides, wait. Always the waiting...
Removing my hands from my face, I stare up at the ceiling as a tear rolls down my face. I glance at the bedside clock and see it is around eight in the morning. Letting out a deep sigh, I remove myself from bed so I may get ready. Walking over to my closet I pick one of my purple uniforms from its hanger and put it on. I grab my boots and zip them up my long legs, followed by my gorget, armband, and gauntlets. Then I walk over to my mirror and brush my fiery red hair, while trying to wipe away my tears.
By Tamaranian standards, I am considered quite beautiful, as I have been told on many occasions. Although here on Earth, I am considered quite the 'strange'. My skin is orange while no one on Earth has this coloring, unless someone gets the bad spray tan, although I do not know what that is. I have weird green eyes and an unusually vibrant shade of red hair. Many Earth girls look at me as some sort of freak and often give me the strange looks while Earthen males seem to do the flirting with me. It confuses me greatly.
After I finish getting ready and look over myself once more, I go and sit on the edge of my bed. Hanging my head in deep thought, I think over my dreams. I do not even know what to make of them. Could Robin view me as more, as I view him? I do not know, but I know I require the advice. Then I decide I should do the going to the one person who I rely on most besides Robin; Raven.
Getting up, I open my door and make my way into the hall as my eyes begin to water once more. Quickly I walk down the hall, and reach Raven's room. Gratefully I did not meet anyone on my way here for I now have tears streaming down my face. I knock on her door and call miserably "Raven?"
The door opens slightly, enough for one of Raven's violet eyes to peer from the crack in the door and up at me. When she sees me and my tears she immediately opens the door all the way and asks "Starfire, what's wrong?" She is clearly worried, as it shows on her face and in her voice.
"Friend Raven, I require your assistance, please" I say, the last word coming out a choked sob. She nods her head silently and moves out of the way, allowing me to enter her room. Walking inside, I sit on her bed and draw my knees up to my chest. Raven's weight settles on her bed next to me and she grabs one of my hands as I cry into my knees.
At first, Raven did not do the liking of me. After we switched bodies and got to know each other better however, we became the 'girl friends'. We often go to the mall of shopping and have the girl talk when Raven is the up for it. Since defeating her father Trigon, Raven has been able to show emotion more freely. It is still a work in the progress, but everyone is very the happy with her progress. I know I am, the very much.
"What's wrong Starfire?" Raven asks me once more.
I look up at her and sigh as I drop my knees. "Oh Raven, I cannot stop dreaming of Robin" I say, looking over at her miserably, "I cannot stand being together in my dreams, but not being together in real life. I simply cannot Raven!" The tears are still falling down my face as I let go of her hand and wipe away them away.
"Starfire it's ok, Robin likes you, he just doesn't know how to express himself" she says folding her hands in her lap.
"He does?" I ask, leaning toward her with disbelief.
She gives me the look that says "Duh" and I cannot help but giggle. She smiles at me and says "The boy blunder just needs a little nudge, that's all."
"How do I give this 'nudge' friend Raven? Must I use my arms?"
"No Star, not an actual physical nudge" she explains, pinching the bridge of her nose.
Tilting my head in confusion, I question "Then what do you mean?"
Raven looks at me and answers after a moment of thinking "Make him realize how much he likes you and that you won't wait around forever by doing something."
"Oh, like what?"
"I don't know Star" she sighs, "you can go think about that."
I smile and give Raven a tight hug she does not return, but I do not mind. "Thank you friend Raven" I say as I stand up, "I will try to think of something."
Standing up as well, Raven replies "You're welcome, and you do that."
I step into the hall once again and take a deep breath. Perhaps Raven is right, maybe Robin does like me. Now all I need is the perfect plan. Making my way to the common room, I try to think of what I can do. Nothing comes to mind, but one thing is for sure, enough is enough...
and I am done doing the waiting.
