The rain pounded on the roof of Titans Tower, the sound of thunder and crash of lightning ringing through the hallways. All were lying silent in their beds, dreamily sleeping, quietly, soundly, all but one. Starfire lie staring at the roof, her mind swirling, her body shaking. She did not like the rain. It had been 3 years since it had happened; she was only 16 then. 3 years ago she had loved the rain. 3 years ago she began to hate the rain. 3 years ago, was when Robin disappeared.


Flashback…

"Starfire?"

The alien girl turned at the call of her name, the rain soaking her through, and she smiled at the boy wonder as he stood in the doorway before her.

"Star, what are you doing out here? It's freezing."

Starfire smiled, beckoning him outside to come to her, and he looked back down the stairwell, closing the door behind him and smiling as he walked over to her.

"So, what are you doing out in the rain anyway?" Robin's voice inquired her to answer as the thunder bellowed throughout the sky, lightning flashing and the rain pounding with a steady wave as Starfire looked out over the crashing ocean.

"I find it all quite fascinating. These 'thunderstorms' are like music of Nature, yes? With a deadly light show, loud drums, and a steady metronome straight from the heavens all in one. I enjoy the rain, Robin. Do you like the rain?"

Robin smiled at her, in absolute awe of how she looked at the world so thoroughly, took nothing for granted. He opened his mouth to speak but was suddenly thrown to the ground. Starfire gasped as she saw a figure attacking him as he yelled. She threw the man off of Robin, knocking him unconscious as his head made contact with the ground. Starfire leaned Robin against a wall gently and put a hand on his chest worriedly.

"Robin!"

He opened his eyes and smiled, moving her away so he could stand.

"I'm fine St-ARRR!!!"

Suddenly lightning shot down mid-sentence, shooting him right in the chest, burning his skin, making him scream, making him bleed. Starfire screamed as Robin burned before her.

The lightning ended, His body standing straight up and she looked at him, unable to see clearly in the dark.

"Robin?"

Lightning flashed, revealing his burnt skin and charred face as he slowly began to tilt over and fall off the side of the building. She screamed as she couldn't fly after him, sheer joy being opposite of what she felt as she watched him fall into the ocean, a loud splash resounding, and she never saw him arise.

"ROBIN!! NO!!! PLEASE! ROBIN!!"

End Flashback…


Starfire shot up in her bed as the alarm went off and all the lights flashed, signaling a break-in. She flew out of her room, the others' doors opening as well as they all headed towards the front door. The rain flew into the tower from the opened front door, a dark figure standing in the doorway.

Starfire growled, her eyes glowing, starbolts ready as she floated in the air.

"Who are you?! Show yourself!"

The figure looked up, and everyone gasped as Starfire dropped to the floor, her starbolts extinguishing themselves immediately. She looked into his black and white mask, the one she only remembered in her dreams, and now, it was there, in front of her. He looked up, his black hair slicked down to his face from the rain, his uniform dripping.

"Starfire…"

Starfire blinked, unbelievingly at first as she looked at him, no longer a boy, but not quite yet a man…

"…Robin?"

He smiled as he stepped towards her into a slightly better lighting, revealing his hair slightly longer, his height slightly taller, and his muscles much more defined.

"I actually go by Nightwing now, but you can call me whatever you want, because I'm back."

Tears formed in the corners of Starfire's eyes as the others ran up to him, asking him what had happened, where he had gone, what he had done. But all Starfire could do was stare, stare at the one she had loved for so long, the one she had hoped would come back day by day, and had almost given up hope on. Robin looked at her, and quickly came to her at the sight of her tears. He wiped her face with his thumbs gently, and looked her in the eye, pulling off his mask, causing her to cry more as she looked into his own eyes for the first time.

"Starfire, are you okay?"

She nodded meekly, falling into his arms as he hugged her softly, whispering sweetly into her ear about how much he had missed her, and how he was never going to leave again, how he would be there forever.

"Forever is a long time."

"I like long-term things."

Starfire smiled and held him closer as she looked into his eyes, his bright blue shining eyes as he began to lean closer to her, and she did the same. Their lips met and the others smiled, glad they finally had realized they were in love.
