"So, Star, what's up?" Speedy asked as he settled down next to Starfire.
"Oh, fine Speedy, what is the up for you?" Star answered cheerfully, smiling with purity.
Speedy chucked as he sighed and smiled back at her. He casually draped his arm over Star's shoulders and looked at her carefully. She looked confused at first but ignored it.
Robin peeked out from the balcony door and his heart dropped at the sight. 'Oh star…'
"So, Starfire, I was thinking, and I've decided that I like you," Speedy said as he smirked and leaned over to Star and pulled her towards him.
Starfire surprised by the sudden events, didn't even think to hesitate when Speedy pulled her into him, pressing his lips against hers, hard.
Robin gasped as he slowly got up and ran away, his heart broken and as mad as ever.
Speedy took no notice as he continued to smother Starfire under his strong embrace. However, Star did, and that simple click of the door awoke her from her shock.
"Speedy, stop!" She yelled as she pushed him off of her.
"Star… why?" He asked as she stood up to look for Robin.
"Because, I do not the like you back.. at least not that way," She answered as she hurried off. She ran straight to Robin's room.
Knock knock
"WHAT!" she heard a loud thump as the door opened and an irritated Robin answered the door.
"Robin!" she cried cheerfully jumping into a hug. Robin pushed her away. She looked at him curiously. "What is wrong?" she asked quietly, looking up at him with pleadingly.
"Inside," he muttered, opening the door wider for her. As soon as she stepped in, the door slammed shut.
" Listen Starfire, I saw you, up there, with Speedy," He said quietly, "The reason why, I was so upset was because, I, well, I love you,"
Starfire looked at him stunned. Oh, she loved him so, but her mouth was clamped shut. What if Speedy tried to hurt Robin for him liking her?
He looked pathetic as she did not answer him.
"Listen, I understand, I'll just go," He said rather rudely as he started to walk away.
A tear fell silently as she reached out to him. "No… don't go.." Her whisper silently dropped from her mouth as he turned halfway. "What? Do you want to torment me more? Listen, if you love that guy, its fine with me, really. Go start a life with him. See what I care." He continued to walk away but the grip she had on his arm was hard to get away from. "Robin please..."
"Star… what do you want…"
"I want-"
"You want what?"
Star started to cry. Robin instantly felt bad as he withered out of sympathy as he reached out to her.
Starfire stepped back and whispered through her tears, "Robin, I wish to tell you of my feelings, but I fear of Speedy's anger."
Robin he tenderly grabbed her hand, "Star, Speedy can't hurt me, now, be truthful, what do you want?"
She looked up at him and whispered, "I want you."
Robin's heart stopped as the next moment passed by in an instant. He has quickly scooped her in his arm and passionately kissed. She kissed him back, melting in his embrace.
"Star, I love you," He whispered
"I love you too, Robin," She answered kissing him with all her heart.
