Chapter 27
"FRIENDS!" Starfire greeted us as she opened the door. She hugged me and smiled at everyone else. As she invited us in, I examined her. Her stomach was a little wider, but not noticeably unless you lived with her for five years. Her hair was bouncy and looked lighter, her skin was pale, and her eyes were no longer lively. Pregnancy was really taking a toll on her.
"Hey Starfire. I thought you were due a month ago." Starfire frowned and her eyes filled with tears. She started to spasm and had to sit down.
"Well, we went to the doctors. They said that the child was not developed fully and must stay in my womb for another month." Everyone's face softened. This wasn't the happy and carefree Starfire that left us a year ago.
"I'm sorry for your luck, Little Lady." Cyborg's face looked so…sad and forgiving.
"It is all right. I am…glad you are all back." She put a finger up to her temple and massaged. She fell back into her chair, listless.
"Starfire?" Beast Boy shook her.
"Hands off my beloved." Starfire's husband shoved Beast Boy out of the way. He hit the wall and fell.
"That wasn't nice." I threatened, my eyes going dark and glowy. He frowned at my and pushed me down. Starfire's husband was a real jerk.
"Dearest Kori'ander. Are you alright?" Starfire jerked back into consciousness. She saw all of us on the ground.
"Why are my friends on the floor? Why are they scowling at you?" Starfire's husband smiled uneasily.
"Um…they are jealous that I get to spend the rest of my life with you. So they attacked me and I was forced to subdue them." Starfire didn't seem to buy it. She got up and left. Starfire's husband turned to us.
"Don't you ever think of coming back. She's mine now!" HE was a real class jerk. Why did Starfire even marry him?
"Oh, we'll be back. Whether you like it or not." Robin was really badass. That's why I loved him. There was a scream heard. It belonged to Starfire.
"Starfire?" Robin ran and everyone followed.
"I think I am going into labor."
So, Starfire married a douchebag. And she's going into labor. I'm not sure of the quality of the birthing chapter. I've never given birth, but I can infer what it feels like. Review and Favorite. Grammar Nazis and Flamers welcome.
