Author's Note: I don't own the Teen Titans. I hope you enjoy the story!!!
A
dark and stormy night
It was dark and stormy night at
Titan's Tower. A sharp scream was heard through out the tower. It
echoed through the halls.
"Starfire!!!" Robin screamed
as he ran down the hall to the source of the scream. He arrived
outside her door. He didn't waste anytime and quickly enter the
emergency access code. The door swung open and Robin entered the
room.
A muffled screamed was heard from a pink heart pillow.
"Starfire!" Robin screamed as he quickly held her in
his arms.
"Robin, I feel like there are a thousand knives in
my stomach." Starfire said as she pointed to the upper left side
of her tone abdomen.
Robin looked as Starfire as she tried to
suppress another scream of pain. She was dressed in a light purple
nightgown with pink hearts. Her bright face became paler with every
passing minute.
"Robin, what is going on here?" Cyborg
said as he and the others stood at the doorway.
"Something is
wrong with Star. We have to get her to the hospital and fast."
Robin said as he picked Star up in his arms and carried her out of
her room.
"Everyone to the T-car!" Cyborg said he ran
to the garage.
The Titans pilled into the T-car while Robin sat
inside with Starfire still clinging to him.
"It is ok Star;
we are almost at the hospital." Robin said as he brushed a few
strains of red hair out of her face.
Star was breathing very
quickly and face was becoming ghost white.
As soon as they
reached the hospital Robin scooped up Star and ran her inside.
The
woman at the front desk as him what was going on.
Robin quickly
explained Star's condition.
The woman looked concerned but told
Robin that only one of them could accompany the frail girl into the
emergency room and the others would have to wait in the waiting room
down the hall.
Raven looked at Beast Boy and Cyborg, who still
half asleep.
"Maybe it would be best if Robin went with
her." Raven said coldly. It wasn't that she didn't want to be
with Star but deep down she feared that she wouldn't be able to
control her emotions and cause more damage.
Cyborg and Beast Boy
looked at Robin and nodded.
"Its ok, Robin. We will be right
down the hall." Cyborg said as looked at Beast Boy.
"Well,
right this way young man," the woman said to Robin. They walked
down the hallway with Starfire still clinging to Robin. "You can
set her down on the examination table." She said as she pointed
to a table in the corner of the doctor's room.
"Robin, where
am I?" Starfire asked as she gasped for air. The pain was
becoming unbearable.
"It's ok, Starfire. We are at the
hospital. Everything is going to be ok." Robin said as he tried
to hide his fear. He was afraid of losing his best friend. "I
can't lose her," he thought to himself. "I wouldn't know
what to do with out her. I lo-" he stopped. "Who am I
kidding? I love her." He finally admitted to himself. He had
been trying to hide it so long that he was beginning to fool himself.
The nurse picked up needle and walked over to Star.
"Ok,
honey. Let me see your arm." She said calmly.
Starfire's eyes
opened wide.
"What are you doing with that sharp object?"
Star blurted out still in pain.
"We have to check your
blood. Why don't you hold your boyfriend's hand while I draw the
blood?" The nurse said calmly.
Robin's eyes also jumped open
at the mention of him. He wasn't her boyfriend as much as he wanted
to be, but he wasn't going to object.
"Here Star, hold my
hand and look at me while the nurse does what she has to do."
Robin said as he sat down beside her and offered her his hand.
Starfire took his hand and kept her arm straight for the nurse.
Star looked at Robin as the needle when into her vein.
Star
nearly jumped out off the bed when the needle hit her arm but Robin
held her gently in place.
"Everything is going to be
alright, Star." Robin said as he rubbed her back.
As soon as
the nurse was done drawing Star's blood she placed an IV into her
arm.
"Now, why don't you lie down and try and relax."
The nurse said as she looked at Star still hiding herself in Robin's
arms. The nurse signaled to Robin that she would be right back and
then stepped out of the room.
Robin stood up and pulled the
blankets around her.
"Robin, don't go." Star said as
she started to feel the medicine kick in. She tried to reach him with
her arm but she was too weak.
"I am not going anywhere
without Star" Robin said as he leaned over and kissed her gently
on the lips. "I would never leave you."
Star was
shocked, but she had never felt happier than she did right then.
Robin quickly pulled away when he realized what he had done.
"I
am sorry." Robin said as he turned away.
"Don't be
sorry because I" Star said as her eyes started to close.
"I
love you." She said as her eyes were nearly closed.
"I
love you too, Star. More than anything." Robin said as he
watched her eyes close.
The nurse came back into the room.
She saw Robin standing over Star's bed.
"It is only a matter
of time now."
"Robin, Robin, wake up." A soft
voice called to him.
"Star?" Robin's eyes opened only
to be in sleeping in a chair in the examination room.
"Are
you ready to see her?" The nurse said as she stepped back in.
Robin nodded.
Robin looked over at Star, who was lying in the
bed.
"Is something bothering you, Robin?" Star asked.
Robin got up from the chair and sat down on the bed next to
Star.
He kissed Star gently on her lips.
"I thought I had
lost you." Robin said as he looked around the room. It was the
same room but it had been a long time since they had been there last.
"Star, do you remember this room?" Robin asked her.
"Of course, Robin. This is the same room that you took me to
when I fell ill just over ten years ago." Star said as she
looked at Robin.
"Congratulations. It's a girl." The
nurse said as she handed Robin a baby wrapped up tight in a soft
purple blanket.
Robin looked at the baby in his arms.
"Robin,
do not think she is the most beautiful baby you have ever seen?"
Star asked Robin as she looked at him from her bed.
"She has
your eyes Star," Robin said as he looked at the baby's bright
green eyes.
"But she has your hair." Star said as she
pointed to the girl's soft black hair.
"I love you, Star."
Robin said as he kissed his wife on her forehead.
"And I
love you, Robin." Starfire said as she kissed the man she
loved.
They had been together ever since that dark and stormy
night at Titan's Tower.
Three familiar faces entered the
room.
"They said you were accepting visitors now."
Cyborg said as he peeked his head in the room.
"Come on in."
Robin said to his fellow Titans. They had become the Titans along
time ago, but they all still lived in Titan's Tower.
Cyborg,
Beast Boy and Raven entered the room.
"So?" Beast Boy
said as he looked at Starfire and Robin who were lying on the bed
with the baby.
"It is a girl!" Starfire said as she
smiled brightly.
"Her name is Nightstar." Robin said.
"Congratulations." Raven said as she looked at
Nightstar.
"I can't wait for you guys to come back to the
tower, but I am soo not doing any diapers." Beast Boy said as he
looked at Nightstar.
"Something tells me Nightstar, is going
to be a great Titan just like her mother." Robin said as looked
lovingly into Star's eyes.
"I think she is going to be
leader just like her father." Starfire said as she looked at
Robin.
"If you two are going to get all mushy then we will
see you back at the tower." Beast Boy said in protest.
Robin
just ignored Beast Boy and kissed the woman he loved. They both
smiled as they thought back to that dark and stormy night that
changed their lives forever.
Who knew that three words could mean
so much? "I love you." And to them that's all that
mattered.
The end!!!
