because if I did, I'd get Robin and Raven together. So don't sue me!
Chapter 5: In Green Arms
If you were standing outside a bathroom door and talking to it for hours on end, you would receive strange looks from by-standers. And this is exactly what Robin, Raven, Cyborg, and Beast Boy got while trying to reason with Starfire, who had locked herself in the women's bathroom in the hospital. She refused to even talk to Robin or Raven, to Cyborg and BB she would just say, "Please go away."
"Now come on Star, you can't stay in there forever," Cyborg pointed out.
"I don't care! Please leave me be!" Cyborg walked into the lobby where Beast Boy had fallen asleep on the chair.
"Get up, BB. Your turn." Grumpily he stood up and for the umpteenth time that day tried to sweet talk Starfire out of the bathroom.
"Hey Star! I heard Cyborg is making hot dogs for dinner! There'll be mustard," he said in a coaxing voice.
"I do not wish to consume food at this moment!" Beast Boy sighed. At this rate, they'd be in the hospital all night, long after visiting hours. He laughed mentally at the thought, but he felt no humor.
"Listen, Star. I know you liked Robin and all, but...he's with Raven now. I know how it feels. I've been ditched a lot before. But there are plenty of other guys who'll go out with you." There was a click, and to Beast Boy's great relief, the door opened slightly. He could see Starfire's eyes gazing out at him.
"Really? Is what you speak true, Beast Boy?"
"Sure! You're tall, pretty, and you've got a lovable and pure personality. What's not to like?"
For the first time that day a slow smile began to form on Starfire's face. "Would...you go out with me, Beast Boy?" This caused Beast Boy to blush deeply. 'Whoa,' he thought to himself. 'I think that's the first time a girl asked me out instead of me asking her out!'
"Uhh...you sure about that, Star?" Starfire was grinning broadly now.
"Yes, of course I am sure. Now you'd be my, what do you call it, 'boyfriend,' correct?" Beast Boy blushed even deeper at the thought of being Starfire's official boyfriend.
"Yeah, yeah I would. Sure, I'll be your boyfriend, Star." Now Starfire swung the door open completely and gave Beast Boy a big huh, nearly choking him.
"Oh, this is wonderful! Besides, I have always thought you were, um, what is that word earthlings always use? Oh yes, 'cute!'" She literally picked him off the ground and gave him kiss.
'Yeah,' he thought to himself. 'She thinks I'm cute! I guess I still got the old charm! Go BB, Go BB, it's your birthday...'
There was an audible sigh from both Cyborg and the lady at reception when Beast Boy walked out with Starfire. Cyborg rushed over right away. "Yes, you go, you little green gnome! How'd you get her out?"
"Uh, well, I convinced her that there were other guys out there, and that she had to move on, even though she liked Robin. And oh yeah, she asked me to be her boyfriend." Cybrog's eye practically popped out of his head, then he started to laugh maniacally.
"Ha-ha-ha! You with Starfire?! Ha, that's rich! I thought you'd never get a girl!"
"Hey, you're just jealous!"
"Jealous?! As if! I could get a girl in three minutes if I wanted to! I just don't!"
"Yeah, if you're talking about a hooker," Beast Boy muttered.
"What was that?!"
"Oh, nothing, nothing, I didn't say nothing."
"Good. Alright you two, let's go back to the tower and tell Robin and Raven the good news. You think we should called 'em to tell them we're on our way?"
"Nah, they'll probably be too busy to answer the phone," he said, grinning.
"Sick, man. Sick." It was about seven o'clock when they all got into the T- Car, and they were all tired and hungry having spent the entire day at the hospital trying to get Starfire to leave the bathroom. But now that everyone felt much better, Starfire piped up.
"Beast Boy informed me that you will make 'hot dogs' for dinner, Cyborg, and that there'll be mustard." She had a dreamy look on her face. "Is this true?"
"Um...yeah, yeah, I'll be cookin' my special dogs for dinner, Star." Though he hadn't actually planned this, his didn't want to spoil the good mood.
Arriving at the tower, they found Robin and Raven watching one of Raven's favorite horror movies. Robin was practically hiding under the couch from fright.
"Oh, guys...you're back," Raven said, looking worriedly at Starfire.
"Do not worry, friend Raven!" Starfire said beaming. "I am at peace with your relationship now. I am very joyful now!"
Raven did not expect this reaction, and was very taken aback. Even Robin, scared out of his mind, peeked over the couch at them.
"Uh, that's great Star. What made you change your mind?"
"Beast Boy convinced me it was time to 'move on.' And he is my 'boyfriend' now!"
"What?" Raven could not resist a small smile, and Robin chuckled. "Beast Boy and...Star?"
"Um, yeah," Beast Boy said shyly, blushing. "She asked me, and I said yes!"
"This is great!" Cyborg said, with a big smile on his face. "We're all pals again!" He pulled them all in for a big bear hug, until Beast Boy's face started turning greener than usual, the he let go. "I'm gonna reserve that big warehouse for a party tomorrow night! This calls for a celebration! I'm going go put some of my special dogs on the grill!" He disappeared in the direction of the barbeque grill on the roof, Starfire following him like she was magnetic.
"Don't forget I eat tofu dogs!" Beast Boy called after them. "Tofu!"
