That Awkward Moment When: Hormones Attack
Summary: Robin and Starfire are ready for their first date, but Robin might be a little overly anxious to spend time with Star. What goes down…or up in the Tower that causes that awkward moment this time?
AN: First Fanfic! I hope it isn't too bad…also, the plot is pretty common…but who doesn't love awkward situations?
After Tokyo, it seemed that Robin and Starfire spent much more time together, after the kiss and all. Robin finally got over his nerves and asked Starfire out on an official date. Tonight was the night of the aforementioned date. Robin was sprawled on his bed, arms spread and lots of doubt and worry fluttering through his mind. What if he wasn't good enough for her? What if he awkwarded it up? What if he got obsessive with Slade again? He knew he tuned people out, but then again it was better that than a masked mad man running about. Sigh. It was this personality of his, his worry and his workaholic that made him worry. What if Star didn't like it? What if she had said yes out of pity? Robin sighed. This was going to be a long night, but not like that. Though, Robin couldn't say he wished it wasn't like that.
Meanwhile, a certain Tamaranean princess was busying herself in her closet thinking of what it as she was going to wear. Perhaps a light purple halter top with her white shorts, but wait would it not be fancy enough? Starfire continued fingering through her hangers in hopes to come across the perfect outfit. Frustrated and in nothing but a bra and underwear, she began frantically sorting through the hangers.
"X'hal, what do I wear?!" She continued inspecting her options when a knock came to her ears.
Robin's stuttering voice came through the door muffled, "Star, So I was wondering if…uhm…you wanted to see a show or go to dinner or both or…or y'know whatever."
Starfire walked to the door, opening it but a creak.
"Yes, Robin. I believe that I would enjoy whatever spending of recreational time you prefer," she said with a sweet smile.
"Okay," Robin replied. "I'm good with a movie after dinner." As he spoke, he seemed to notice how little Starfire had opened the door. Wondering the reason, he soon realized that his date wasn't dressed, her silky skin glistening. His cheeks flushed as he nervously smiled and walked away.
Starfire closed her door, once more returning to shuffle through her outfits. Robin scrambled away to the Main-Room to clear his thoughts, clear them from his doubt and the thoughts of his naked girlfri-friend, his friend. Hell. He couldn't even convince himself that she was only her friend. He wanted to be way more. The one she'd go to for hugs, though she already seemingly did that. The one that she'd hug and kiss, the one whom he could buy bountiful floral arrangements: his girlfriend. Ugh. Robin sighed as he plopped down onto the couch next to Raven.
"So Robin, excited for your date...?" Raven droned, her eyebrow raised and inquisitive.
"Wha-" Robin began, instantly realizing what exactly drew Raven off guard. In his pants, there was a large bulge. "Crap."
"Robin! I am ready for the recreational activities!" Starfire beamed, walking through the doors. She stood happily in a white dress with little purple flowers. She smiled as she walked over to a seemingly distressed Robin.
"Shit. Shit. Shit," he muttered. As soon as Starfire was in standing in front of him, he was bounding off of the couch, lying flat behind the couch.
"Robin? Friend, are you the alright?" Starfire asked nervously.
"Uh. Yah, Star…Just uhm, stretching my back…." Robin muttered.
Starfire looked awkwardly towards Raven, who in return just rolled her eyes.
