Robin opened his eyes, and stretched. According to his alarm clock, it was eight-thirty, a full hour and a half later then his usual wake-up time. He sat up, rumpled his hair, and gazed at his desk for a moment, wondering why he felt so tired. The he remembered.
A wide grin spread across his face as he pulled his boots on. Starfire liked him! Finally, he didn't have to steal glances and touches, didn't have to live through the few moments they shared together. He could be her real, actual boyfriend! Robin hopped over to his door, and practically skipped through the threshold.
He walked in a rather bouncy way down the hall, tempted to whistle. Life was so amazing! Who cared about villains, when a beautiful alien girl had kissed him last night?
Robin strolled into the kitchen, and saw Raven reclining in her usual chair, reading her usual book. She nodded at him in greeting, and gestured over to Beast Boy and Cyborg, who were having their usual battle over breakfast.
"No-Tofu-Beast-Boy!" gasped Cyborg, who was crushed under a green elephant's foot. The offending animal gave a great trumpet, and changed back into the short, green boy.
Robin shook his head, and picked up the morning paper on his way to the kitchen table. They would figure out what to eat sooner or later, but now he needed to check for crimes.
With a whoosh, the door to the bedroom hallway opened. Starfire was framed in it, a bubbly expression on her face. She literally floated over to where Robin was sitting, and flashed him a smile. "Hello Robin." She said rather shyly, coming back to Earth.
"Hey, Star!" exclaimed Robin. Why hadn't he noticed how perfect her fingernails were before? Or the way those tendrils of hair came right over her ears?
Starfire slid into the spot across from him. "Robin..." she whispered, trying to hide her voice from the others, "Could we perhaps do the dating today?"
Robin chewed his lip. In spite of his expression, he was dying to take Starfire on an outing. "If nothing happens today, Star, then we can definitely go on..." he lowered his voice. "A date." Though he wasn't exactly embarrassed, Robin wasn't totally sure he wanted everyone to know about his couple status yet.
Starfire's features lit up with glee, and in pure delight, she clasped Robin's hands that had previously been gripping the newspaper. Robin felt his stomach hop into his throat, and his mind go fuzzy, as he watched his girlfriend-his girlfriend!-nuzzle his fingers.
Abruptly, a platter of rather nasty-smelling pancakes was slapped down in front of the pair, forcing them to break their hold. As usual, Beast Boy had won, and made breakfast. "See, Cyborg?" he proclaimed, puffing up with pride. "You are no match for my awesome tofu skills!"
Cyborg just scowled, and sat down next to Starfire, causing her to move closer to Robin. Not that she minded, or anything.
Raven sauntered over the table, her book left on the couch. "Can we please just eat something without tofu-chicken chunks in it, this time?" she commented dryly. "I'm still sick from your casserole."
Beast Boy threw Raven a grimace. She took the spot next to Cyborg, and Beast Boy nestled himself next to Robin. This, of course, pushed Robin and Starfire together. Conspicuously, Robin started cracking his knuckles, and Starfire's face went pink.
Unbeknownst to them, Raven had started scanning their minds the minute a tinge of red appeared on Star's cheeks. "Yeah," she thought to herself, as she cut her pancakes into quarters, "It's pretty obvious now."
Cyborg and Beast Boy however, had not figured out their friend's reactions. "Dude," he remarked, pointing to Robin's hands. "Why are you cracking you knuckles?"
Robin immediately stopped, and mumbled something about hand exercises. This just caused Starfire to redden more, and begin to giggle as well.
"Robin," she said softly to him, "Perhaps we should inform out friends..."
Cyborg raised his eyebrows. "Of what?"
Raven just shook her head. "Just get on with it."
Robin cleared his throat. "Star and I- Star...Star and I..." He glanced desperately at Raven for assistance. The empath offered no help however; she just gave him an icy look.
"Star and I..." he began again, choosing to look at a point over Raven's shoulder.
"We have entered the period of romantic adolescent outings!" Starfire exclaimed, unable to hold her complete bliss inside. Robin just looked down at the countertop, seemingly enraptured with the table.
Beast Boy gave a questioning look. "What did she say?"
Raven cleared her throat. "They're dating," she said simply.
"Oh," remarked Beast Boy. A few moments later, he did a double take. "YOU'RE DATING?!"
Starfire and Robin nodded.
His eyes bugged out of his head. "Dude!" he shouted. "That's...whoa!"
Cyborg shot a look at his leader. "You're dating?" he asked, surprise is his voice. Not waiting for a reply, he went on. "Man! That's cool. Whoa." He grinned a little nervously, and gave Robin a thumbs up.
Beast Boy was beginning to smile now as well. Robin was beginning to feel a little uncomfortable, with all this attention on him. "I, er...I need to check the paper," he said, clambering over Beast Boy and snagging the paper as he went.
Starfire didn't want to be left alone while the others interrogated her on her new found romance, so she excused herself as well.
Raven took a bite of her pancake. "Not bad. Tastes a little like broccoli though." She raised her eyebrows at Beast Boy. "At least it's not chicken."
----------------------------
"Starfire?" Robin knocked on Starfire's door tentatively. He cleared his throat, and called again. "Starfire?"
The door slid open, and revealed an ecstatic looking Starfire. "Yes, Robin?" she asked, happiness dripping from every word.
"I...We could go on...a date now, if you wanted," muttered Robin.
Starfire eagerly hopped out of her room, and grasped her boyfriend's arm. "Yes! Oh, let us go, Robin! Perhaps the habitat of ducks and squirrels?"
Robin laughed. "Maybe, Star."
The pair strolled down the hallway, both making plans in their heads for where they wanted to go.
