Heya all! This is my first fic so please pardon me if its lame, crappy or lame and crappy.
Disclaimer: I do not own Teen Titans. I know. It's sad.
"Robin wait!" the Tamaranian girl pleaded as she flew towards him.
"Not now Star. I'm not in the mood," Robin replied, not looking in her direction, as he continued walking away.
"But… I want to apologise. I am sorry that Slade got away. It was my fault entirely," Starfire continued, with a sad look on her face.
He didn't reply her. Instead he jumped on the couch and started to flip through channels, with an angry look on his face.
"Please Friend Robin. Do not remain angry at me. I did try to catch him. I just…just-" Starfire tried to say, but was interrupted by Robin.
"Starfire stop it, okay?! I'm frustrated enough that he got away, and you bugging me is just making me angrier! I was THIS close to capturing him and one silly mistake caused by you just destroyed all my efforts! You know how much I want him captured and instead of helping you messed it all up!" Robin yelled back.
Starfire was taken aback. He had never yelled at her like that before.
"Don't talk to me right now. You're the last person I want to see," Robin said, and continued angrily flipping through channels.
"Dude chill!" Cyborg yelled back at Robin, sticking up for Starfire. "Just because she made ONE mistake doesn't mean you should blow up at her like that! You've made mistakes before and she's never-"
"Friend Cyborg, stop. I do not need you to help me." Starfire interrupted. This caught Robin's attention. "It is obvious that Robin cares more about capturing villains than…than… anything else," she whispered softly.
With that, she flew out of the tower, with tears streaming down her cheeks.
Robin was shocked. She had never reacted that way before. Then again, neither had he.
"Nice going, man. Look what you've done!" Cyborg shouted at Robin. "Now she's upset, because you were too stubborn to forgive her!"
"But…I didn't mean…I was just…ARG!" Robin shouted in frustration, and stalked off to his room.
What is wrong with me?! Robin threw his pillow angrily on the ground.
Cyborg was right, I was too harsh on her.
Robin thought of the time he was tricked into being Slade's apprentice. She was the only one that had still trusted him, believed in him, even when he attacked them.
He also thought of the time when he posed as Red X. She did not yell at him or throw her temper, as the other titans did.
ARG!! He collapsed on his bed in frustration. What have I done?
"Starfire!" Robin shouted, catching the attention of everyone around him. It was Christmas Eve, and unfortunately for him many people were out on the street, making it hard for him to spot Starfire.
Still, that didn't stop Robin. He continued his search for her, asking many people if they had seen a tall girl with red hair and emerald eyes. After an hour of frantic searching, he grew discouraged as no one had seen her.
Maybe she's returned to the tower, he sighed in disappointment. He was about to turn back when something caught his eye.
"Starfire!" Robin ran towards the redhead looking through the glass window of a shop. She spun round but frowned when she saw Robin.
"Star…I've been looking all over for you…" he panted.
"Why? I thought you would be busy still tracking down Slade," replied Starfire, her voice cold and sounded hurt.
"Star I was wrong. I'm sorry," Now it was his turn to beg for forgiveness. "I shouldn't have flared up at you. I was just frustrated. It wasn't your fault. And you were right. I am overly obsessed with capturing villains. I guess that's what happens when you are a hero. Please forgive me, Star," Robin pleaded.
"But how do I know that you are truly sorry?" Starfire turned round, smiling slightly. Robin grinned. He knew a way.
He reached into his pocket and taking out something green. He showed it to her.
"Is that mistletoe?" She replied, staring at the queer object.
"Uh huh. And I've always wanted to do this," Robin replied, with a grin, and threw the mistletoe in the air, such that it was right above them.
Before Starfire could react he pulled her by the shoulders to him, and Robin's lips met hers. Her look of surprise faded as she slowly eased up and wrapped her arms around him, and kissed back. They didn't stop even when the mistletoe hit the ground. They didn't stop even when everyone crowded around them staring at the peculiar sight. Fireworks burst all over the sky, as they had entered a new day.
After a while, they pulled apart for air. Starfire was blushing.
"Merry Christmas Starfire," Robin said with a smile.
