There was no full moon tonight but that didn't make a difference. The stars were bright, the sky
was a brilliant blue, it was a beautiful night. Sunfire was out on the island tending to the garden
he shares with Raven,though he had no use for it now. He had planted plants from his planet
and was tending to them, and going over his thoughts. He could not stop floating and flying from
the joy of being in a wonderful relationship with Robyn.
He controlled his flying to just floating over the grass and plants as he looked up and just
thought about all the amazing things that had happened since he got there. All the great
friendships he's made with all the titans and the experiences and knowledge he had now.
And Robyn… well, she was wonderful and there was no way to describe what she made
him feel, she was his best friend and that would never change. Sunfire with still thinking a lot
about this new feelings that had arisen in her. He liked her and he couldn't get her out of her
mind, and with everyday that passed by, she taught him new things and new experiences. The
fighting skills and the battles against the bad guys gave her a rush, but so did having her
nearby. It felt wondrous.
He flew up to the roof and sat down on the edge with his legs dangling from the roof. He
should head inside but he preferred to look at the stars from up here and stay with his thoughts
of his life on earth. He started floating, and he smiled. He had heard the door of the roof open.
"Hi, what are you doing out here it's kind of late?"
"Well, I needed to do the thinking, as well as tend to the garden." He brought up his knees, as
he was still floating, and wrapped his arms around them.
"All right then, what are you doing up on the roof then?" She took several steps towards him still
not completely used to the idea of them together. It made no sense it had been a few great
months and yet she could not get used to the idea of them. There were so many things that
could go wrong but there were many things going right for them too, and those were what
counted right?
"I like looking at the sky, come and talk with me. I sense that perhaps something is doing the
bothering of you?"
How did he know that? Robyn walked to stand next to his floating figure. It was bad enough she
was short, now as he was floating she felt even smaller.
"Um would you mind actually sitting down, I kind of feel shorter than usual." She looked down at
the ground as she said that and he just giggled.
"Oh but of course," he gently sat down on the ground and faced her as she took a seat next to
him. He grabbed her hand and they sat in silence as the minutes ticked by.
" Are you happy with us? With this?"
He tilted his head and gave her a curious look. "Of course I am! I am overjoyed!" His smile fell
as he asked her the same as well.
"Yes, it's been a short while but you know, it's like great, so um yeah." She was blushing and
fidgeting with her hair, she was terrible with words, unless they were the comebacks towards
villains.
He tried again, " I can't be without you because then I miss you like crazy and like so far this has
been a great part of my life." Yeah, that was better...right?
"Um, it's just that like everyday with you gets better and better and it's amazing, and okay yeah.
Please say something now."
He was quiet for a second before he burst out in laughter and Robyn's blush almost matched his
hair. "I do apologize but it is the adorable when you are nervous and keep on talking. Everything you
have said is very kind and wonderful and I fell the very same way. But I must know why you ask
that if you feel this way?"
She sighed as she looked out at the dark water surrounding the tower. "It's just that there are so
many things that stand in our way, We're heroes and our job is to protect this town and defend it.
We can't have weaknesses or be in relationships because that puts us in greater danger. And
no, it just can't happen, but at the same time, I know that not being with you would hurt just as
much as seeing you get hurt because of me. I want to be selfless but selfish as well, and I don't
know anymore. "
She had started tapping her fingers against her leg and she couldn't stop fidgeting, she would
be pacing but she wanted to see what Sunfire would say.
After about a minute of interesting silence, he spoke. " I do believe these thoughts are
reasonable, but what matters is that all views are considered. It appears that you have been
doing a lot of the stressing over this. I do not know what will happen with us, but I do know that I
do like being with you and that although it is not safe, we can handle the dangers, together."
"You might get hurt because of me," he smiled and grabbed her hand.
"I am a Tameranean, I can do the handling of it, as can you, we will not give up so easily."
She eventually smiled and she gave him a gentle kiss on the cheek, and the sat there silently.
It was not uncomfortable silence, nor was it awkward, it was the type of silence you can't
have with just anyone. They felt as though they had much to say, yet there was also no need for
words, it was as if all they needed to say was said through the mere action of sitting and holding
hands. It was all they needed.
He leaned his head on her shoulders, and she gently petted his beautiful red hair, "Do
you want to go back to the tower?"
"Everything I need is right here," and after he fell asleep.
"What would I do without you? You say you've learned from me, but I've learned more
from you than you can ever imagine. I'm terrified for what may happen but I will keep you safe. I
know without you I lose strength, and being with you is better than not having you. Whatever
awaits us, we will fight together, all of us, just like you said. Nothing will be impossible for us.
Thank you for being my little ray of sunshine." She laughed lightly thinking of her words.
"I really do believe I love you," and with those words she closed her eyes and laid down
on the roof with Sunfire's arms around her.
She smiled against his hair and whispered words into it, "I think so too."
The next morning they awoke to a very loud, "Dudes!"
Hey! So that was a sweet little one shot for those of you who like fluffiness. The next few will
involve the other titans and their humorous ways, but of course they will still be robstar.
