"Hey, Raaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaveeeeeeeeeeeen!" Beast Boy called from the doors.

Raven looked up. Beast Boy had purposefully put on some make-up and done it all wrong.

"It's old, Beast Boy," Raven said, returning to her book. "Get over it."

Beast Boy's face fell, and he looked highly annoyed. "You laughed at Starfire! Why don't you laugh at me?"

"One, it's already happened; once funny, never funny again. Two, Starfire did it genuinely. You did it on purpose. Three, I knew it was coming."

"How did you know I was gonna do it? I didn't tell anyone!"

Raven lifted her hand and tapped her pointer finger against her head. "You were thinking it quite a lot."

"WHAT WERE YOU DOING IN MY BRAIN?"

"I got tired of listening to your mouth."

"SO MY BRAIN IS MORE INTERESTING?"

"It certainly has less in it than your mouth comes out with."

"ARE YOU CALLING ME STUPID?"

"I'm saying your brain talks less than your mouth does."

"WHY YOU LITTLE—"

"Oh, yeah! I'm winning! Boo ya!" Cyborg jumped on the couch and did a victory dance, still managing to play his racing game. "Totally kicking your butt, BB."

Beast Boy stopped immediately. "But I was yelling at Raven! This doesn't count!"

"It's not my fault if your attention span is as small as Star isn't naïve," Cyborg said, sitting back down and knocking Beast Boy's car off the course.

"CYBORG!" Beast Boy yelled, picking up the controller again.

"Hmm," Raven said quietly, more to herself than anyone else, as she flipped another page in her book. "I wonder how those two are doing."

--

Starfire's mouth dropped. She knew that music anywhere. "Robin, how did you—?"

"Simply made a special request. Took them ages to find, but they did."

"Anyone got any beer?" Landon asked.

"BEER IS NOT GOOD FOR YOU!" Starfire suddenly yelled.

Robin laughed. She could yell all she wanted now. They watched a bit more of Starfire's favorite movie.

"So how 'bout it? You ready to fly?" Landon asked.

"HE CANNOT FLY AND YOU SHOULD NOT MAKE HIM TRY!"

They watched A Walk to Remember for a few more minutes before Starfire stood up and began shouting at the screen.

"NO! DO NOT JUMP!" Starfire gave a slight scream and covered her eyes, falling back in her chair as Clay jumped.

They continued watching. Robin smiled at each of Starfire's reactions. This was the reason he watched romance movies with her. He loved to see her different facial expressions.

"Let the light from the lighthouse, let it shine on me," A little ways longer into the movie, Starfire began to sing along with the choir with a voice Robin found heavenly. "I want the, I want the—he is the light from the lighthouse would shine, would shine, would shine on me." She began to sing Jamie's solo, and Robin swore her voice was from an angel. "Here is my thought, this is my plea. Lord let your holy light shine on me. I wonder will you hear my prayer. I know I'm not I'm worthy but I need your help. Lord shine your light, shine it this way. Shine it so I can see which way to take. My faith is in you to bring me through. I have one question… I wonder…"

The movie ended after an hour and a half of romance and tragedy. Starfire stood, the mustard demolished, and tears shining down her face.

"Jamie… and Landon… oh, it is so sad!"

"Did you enjoy it?" Robin asked.

"Oh, very much so!" Starfire said, wiping her tears away.

"Think of something else, if it makes you sad," Robin said.

Starfire paused for a moment, then imagined music playing and began to sing. "There's a song that's inside of my soul. It's the one that I've tried to write over and over again. I will wake in the infinite cold, but you sing to me over and over and over again. So I lay my head back down and I lift my hands and pray. To be only yours I pray; to be only yours; I know now you're my only hope.

"Sing to me the song of the stars, of your galaxy dancing and laughing and laughing again. When it feels like my dreams' so far. Sing to me of the plans that you have for me over again. So I lay my head back down and I lift my hands and pray. To be only yours I pray; to be only yours; I know now you're my only hope.

"I give you my destiny. I'm giving you all of me. I want your symphony singing in all that I am. At the top of my lungs I'm giving it up. So I lay my head back down and I lift my hands and pray. To be only yours I pray; to be only yours I pray; to be only yours; I know now you're my only hope." She began humming to end the song.

They were outside. Starfire had sung her way to the dark sky, skipping along, a smile placed on her face. Robin stared. He deeply wanted to kiss her, but refrained. She might not be ready for that.

"Your voice is lovely."

Starfire stopped humming and blushed, turning away. "I do not really. There are many on Tamaran with voices more talented."

"I've never heard anything more beautiful."

Starfire kept her head down, her face a vivid crimson. Robin lifted it with his hand and smiled. Starfire returned the smile, and they kept walking.

They walked for what felt like no more than ten minutes, as they happily discussed different things. Talking—it was something they had not been able to do for some time now. Their schedules were so tight—they were fighting crime, or Starfire had been zoned out, thinking about tonight. Now she didn't understand why she had worried so much. Things were going quite smoothly. The couple walked through the city, soon holding hands, doing a little bit of window-shopping. Robin wasn't one who enjoyed shopping, but she was so much fun to do anything with. They way she was clueless about Earth's toys and such, and then the happiness in her eyes as she discovered them was something Robin would treasure forever.

They paused halfway along a bridge as Starfire gazed at the fountain in front of her. She leaned against the railing and watched with delighted eyes as the water spouted up from the lake below them.

"It is magnificent…"

"It's pretty in the daytime, but even better at night. See all those lights over there? They're not on in the day," Robin informed her.

"Oh," Starfire said. She sighed. "There is so much about the city I did not know existed. I have never seen this fountain before."

"Well, not many people have to come this side of town. There aren't any huge moneymakers over here, so rarely is there crime."

"Robin? Might we sit down where we can watch the fountain?"

"'Course."

Robin found a bench in a small park that overlooked the lake and the forefront of the city beyond. Starfire sat beside him and watched in awe as the fountain shot up a particularly enormous gust of water.

Robin pretended to be slightly sleepy, and did the old yawn and stretch maneuver. Starfire jumped a bit at the sudden arm on her shoulder, but then leaned in closer to Robin and cuddled.

Robin brought his arm tighter around Starfire, and the two sat on the cold park bench, watching the fountain—which Robin soon found boring—as the night sky passed above. Robin glanced at his watch after what seemed eternity with the girl of his dreams cuddled up in his arms. He didn't want the moment to end, but it was one o'clock, and they had to get going. He loved having her here, he loved this moment, but the leader inside of him took charge and demanded that they leave at once.

"Star?" Robin asked gently.

She had fallen asleep.

Robin smiled. There was no way he was going to wake her, no matter how much the leader inside of him commanded him to. Therefore he improvised.

Robin very carefully got off the bench, and then, with just as much caution, picked Starfire up in both his arms. He looked at her beautiful face for a moment before setting off, care in each step so as not to wake her.

He walked to the tower. He had thought, at the beginning of his journey, that it would take all eternity, and that each step with Starfire in his arms would take a year to complete. He found to his disappointment, however, that as he watched her peaceful face, the time it took to get the tower lessened. Soon he glimpsed the giant T in the distance.

He got a ride across the water, demanding that the man be very slow so as not to waken the sleeping girl. After a grand total of half an hour, they docked on the island that held their home. Robin gently lifted Starfire up into his arms again, for he had laid her down on a couch inside the boat, and left the craft behind. He hiked up the trail that led to their front door, passing Cyborg's detectors on purpose to let the Titans know they were home. He wasn't certain they were even sleeping.

Robin was nearing the door before something emerged from the shadows, followed by a familiar figure.

"So… a date, huh?"

"Hey, Aqualad!" Robin said in greeting, but rather quietly. "Careful, she's asleep."

Aqualad nodded with a grim look on his face as he stared at Starfire.

"What's wrong?"

Aqualad looked up at Robin. "I fell for it."

"For what?"

"Her excuse. 'Please don't tell Robin, he won't be happy that I'm taking his debt for him.'" Aqualad said, almost mocking.

"What're you talking about?" Robin asked.

"Do you know what she did earlier today? What her plans were?"

"Yeah, she went to the mall," Robin said. "And then she met you."

Aqualad shook his head, a manipulated smirk on his face. "No. No, she didn't Robin."

Starfire picked that moment to rouse from her sleep. She blearily opened her eyes and stared at Robin.

"Robin? Where are we?" She looked around and spotted Aqualad. Her brain took several moments to process her surroundings. It was dark, so it was still late. She and Robin were still on their date.

They were on a date. Aqualad was here.

"She went on a date with me."

Robin nearly dropped her. His voice was shaky. "What?"

"We went on a date, didn't we, Starfire?" Aqualad said. "To the Prince's Palace. Then we got split up in the city. Then she returned to the Tower. I came here about two and a half hours ago to make sure she was okay. I find that you two went out on a date." He looked at Starfire, who now held fear in her eyes. "I didn't tell the others we went on our date. I think that's best for you to tell. I just thought Robin might want to know he's being two-timed."

Aqualad was about to stalk off. "Please, what is 'two-timed'? Is it two o'clock?"

Aqualad hesitated, his back to her still as he didn't bother to turn back around, and then he proceeded back to the lake.

Starfire looked up at Robin's face. He was staring straight ahead, taking in Aqualad's words. "Robin, please—"

"No, Star, it's okay," Robin said. "I get it."

Starfire highly doubted this.

"Aqualad—he's really nice, he's handsome, and he's a bloody fish from the—" (here, Robin used a word that Starfire had never heard him use before, one that made her gasp) "—sea. What's not to like?" Robin set her down, made sure she was stable, and then entered the T.

"No, Robin, wait!"

Starfire attempted to track him down. She hurried into the main room where the three Titans were waiting to make sure she was okay.

"Hey, what's wrong with Robin? He just marched in here and chucked BB halfway across the room!"

Beast Boy lay unconscious near the window, where Raven was trying to revive him.

"I… cannot say, friend Cyborg; only that I have made a terrible mistake. Please excuse me."

Starfire hurried to Robin's room. It was unlocked, but he wasn't there. She rushed to the next place he would be—the training room. Sure enough, there he was, sweating already as he ceaselessly attacked the punching bag.

Starfire secretly watched him for a long time, time she did not care to count. He was furious, and she knew it. The way he assaulted the punching bag was enough proof. Starfire sat down next to the door in a dark corner and curled herself up into a ball. She had made a terrible mistake, and now everyone was paying the price.

Robin finally sat down on the bench beside the bag, tired and sweaty. He ruffled his hand through his hair. He hoped that no one could notice the tears mixed in with sweat. She had lied to him, gone on a date with someone else on the same night, and tried to get away with it. He had thought she liked him, too. That was the problem, though, wasn't it? He got his hopes up, and now he was paying the price.

Aqualad swam deep into the sea, going as far as could. He had forgotten his surroundings; he only knew that he had to keep going. Starfire had gone on a date with Robin. He should've seen it, or perhaps he did, he was just so blind by his own ambitions. Starfire and Robin were meant to be. They flirted all the time, and here he thought he'd stood a chance. She must have been anxious to get away and get back to her dear, sweet Robin.

Starfire suddenly stood, tears streaming down her face. She silently ran into the kitchen. It was dark—the other Titans had turned in to bed. Starfire flipped the switch and a brilliant flash of light entered the kitchen. She blinked several times, and then ran to the fridge. She grabbed two bottles of mustard and was off again.

Ten minutes after Starfire unbeknownst to him left the training room door, Robin heard the T-sub engine. He didn't move, didn't even flinch. He knew who it was. Starfire was going back to see Aqualad, to tell him that Robin understood that it was over between he and her, that there had really been nothing to begin with. Let her go to her fish love. Let her drown. He had already drowned in his own tears, and she probably hadn't even shed one. Let her be with Aqualad. The two of them must be fate.

It was an hour later that Robin heard the T-sub return, but this time he was lying upon his very wet pillow as he tried to sleep. He had changed in the dark into his nightclothes and then climbed into bed, not being able to muster the energy to turn on the light. He pulled the blanket over his head and listened for the distinct sound of Starfire approaching. He had memorized her footsteps over time. Now they were the steps that terrorized his soul.

He heard them. They were faint at first, but then they passed by his door and on to Starfire's room. Robin waited one minute, then jumped out of bed and ran to his door. He looked out into the hallway, but she was gone.

A faint light shone—Starfire had left the kitchen light on again. He went to turn it off, but stopped. The floor was laced with drops of water, drops that might be the size of tears.

Robin shook his head. Why would she be crying? She'd just broken his heart, not the other way around. Robin dejectedly shook his head and turned out the light, returning to his room.

He finally conceded that he wouldn't be getting much sleep tonight. Robin turned on his own light and went to his desk, where he had files of every villain they had faced. He stopped, however, as he neared it and a horribly familiar object met his eyes.

It was a thin but long yellow bottle. Robin recognized it instantly, having bought dozens of bottles of it for the evening that had just passed. For an unknown reason, a bottle of mustard was lying upon his desk.

A/N:

Yay! Another chapter is done. What d'you think? Star got caught… bad Star! So now the big question is: who will forgive her?

Oh, and the songs Starfire sang, I had to figure out by watching the movie over and over and over, so sorry if it's not 100 accurate. .

Eventidespirit- I'm glad you like BB. He's an interesting character to write up. Well, now you've seen how the guy's reacted. Typical, I guess, sorta. o.o I dunno. Mah! Now I'm losing my mind! xD Hope you liked the chapter!

Jen813- Yes, I know I should've mentioned Star's clothes thing. When I was going back through the fic I noticed that, but I think it was late or something because I remember thinking, They'll forgive me. xD So yeah, I know. I'll probably go back and add it in later.

SocialButterfli- I'm sorry, no more Robert. Perhaps I should make a spoof chapter at the end where he and Red X come back? xD And you little know-it-all. I really didn't know I could look up the words on the internet…. Ah, well. Too lazy to do so now. xD AND YES YOU WILL UPDATE AGAIN!!! I'll… MAKE YOU! … No idea how, but I WILL!

D-I-WaRrIa- Aqualad will, of course, be returning. He's going to make things a little difficult. I have no plans for Red X and Robert to come back, unless I make a spoof chapter at the end where I brake their hearts because Starfire's been taken at that point. And the "jealous Titan" is not Aqualad or Star's boyfriend. That's the reason I hate myself, and the reason you will too. I'll explain it as the chapter comes. -looks- Oh crap, that's in two chapters….

Terra Basher- -helps in the murder of your step-mom- HA! There, now we're rid of both our step-parents. Hope you liked this chapter!

SocialKween- I think Robin's was the best date too. And yes, I knew about the release dates. I found that out… I dunno how long, ages ago really. I've actually seen what Raven looks like in "Bunny Raven". It is SOOOOOO cute! I'm not looking forward to Titans East, though, because I like the Teen Titans as they are. I don't want more of them!

StarfireRobin4ever- I'm so glad you're enjoying it! I certainly hope everything's in character, but there's been little comment of OOCness to me so far…. And I had one person recommending that the length be longer. I dunno what to do now! .

Springdc- I'm so glad you like it! xD That was a hyper review. Here's your update, hope you enjoy!

Next chapter! I give you a little excerpt from everyone's POV, and their thoughts on different things. Then it's the next day, and Starfire refuses to come out of her room. Robin has time to think things over, and he acts on it. That's all I'm saying.

I'm curious, has anyone seen Darkness yet besides me? If so, IS ANYONE SEEING SEVEN DEAD CHILDREN? I'm terrified. I hardly slept last night because I swore I saw seven dead children staring at me through the window….

Okay. Also, I probably should wait a while before doing this, but I want to get started on my next fic as soon as possible, but I don't know which one to start on! I'm going to give you guys titles and the shortest possible summary, and you tell me which, by that, sounds most interesting. Ks? Thanks!

Metamorphosis- A villain is posing as one of the Titans, and one of the Titans is dead, but not even the Teen Titans themselves can be certain who it is!

Resurrection- Slade and Terra have been resurrected from the grave, and it's causing a bit of turmoil.

Spiteful Love- Robin and Beast Boy get into an argument, and now they're trying to win both Starfire and Raven's love for themselves!

From the Inside Out- An assassination attempt is made on Starfire's life, but who did it?

It Started as a Prank- Beast Boy has to go out on a date with Raven, but what will happen?

Dangerous Fandom- One of Starfire's fans is spending more time with her than Robin would like, and he's determined to find something bad about this guy. What he finds, however, endangers not only the fan's life, but Starfire's as well.

Lover to Die- Starfire is forced to try and murder Robin, but what happens when she's caught? And what if she actually succeeds?

Past and Present- Robin's old girlfriend has kidnapped Starfire with intent on death, and the Titans have to find them before the girl can carry out her plan!

Losing Home- Tamaran has been destroyed, and Starfire's on a mission to find out who did it.

The Other Side- What if I told you that Raven had a twin, they were complete opposites, and yet Raven isn't the evil twin?

Yes, yes, I know lots of these suck. I have to go through many bad ideas before I come across a good one. Because I have so few reviewers, I'm hoping no one's going to steal the ideas…. I have more on each idea than is said, and the winning idea will get the full summary. Now it's up to you! Rate them, give me your favorite, however you want to do it. You guys tell me what idea is next. (By the way, I know not all of these are original, so I know some of them will be out there. Just… yeah, you guys know what I mean. . )

Thanks for reading everyone! Don't forget to rate in your review!
