Try, Try Again
"I hope Starfire likes this." Robin was holding what looked like a very small, purple box. Inside the box was a heart shaped locket, with a picture of him and Starfire in it, and a small inscription. He got it the other day, planning to give it to Starfire. Now he only needed to wait for the perfect time. Robin decided to get it done now. So he walked down the halls towards Starfire's room. He was curious to see what she was up to anyways. He knocked on her door. "Hello, Starfire?" "One moment please." Robin thought he heard the sound of something locking, but he shook off the thought. Bringing him back to reality "Hello Robin, what may I ask brings you here?" "Well, you left breakfast a little early, and I just wanted to make sure that things were ok." "Oh yes, everything is fine, infact-" But then Star was cut off by another pair of voices.
"Yo Robin, Star!" Cyborg and Beast Boy were standing just a few feet away from them, obviously very excited about something. Robin quickly hid away his gift behind his cape. "Me and Beast Boy challenge you two, to a game, of STINKBALL YALL!!!!" (or whatever the game is they played in spellbound) "We even got Raven to referee." They stepped aside to show Raven wearing a cloak in black and white stripes, a referee's colors. "Whoopee." Raven commented sarcastically. "So how about it?" Starfire and Robin looked a little disapointed, but they joined in anyways, trying to have as much fun as they could. "I guess it isn't the perfect time after all. Maybe later." Robin sadly thought.
Later on that day, after their long game of stinkball, Robin decided to try a second attempt. Walking down the halls, it didn't take him long to reach Starfire's room. Gathering up his strength, he took a deep breath, and was about to knock on the door. But just when he was about to, he heard mumbling. Robin leaned closer to Starfire's door to hear better, knowing that it was not a good idea to eavesdrop. Curiosity got the better of him.
"Dear Diary,
Things are proceeding well today. But for some reason, lately I've been feeling down. I guess it is because that my feelings have been growing stronger for you know who. I try and try to express my feelings, but everytime I try to do so, I fear it gets worse. I think that if I don't tell him that I love him soon, then he might find another attractive earth girl. I really hope that doesn't happen.-"
Robin couldn't hear anymore of this. Who was Star talking about? Was she talking about him? Maybe...but wait! What if she was talking about someone else she met? Maybe thats why shes been acting a little strange lately. Heartbroken, and betrayed, Robin just stormed off to his room, staying there for the rest of the afternoon. Little did he know that was not all that Star had written,
"-I just love Robin so much, but I don't know how earthlings here really express their feelings, so I might embarass myself. Also, if one of our enemies knew about this, then they could put Robin in danger, and that wouldn't be good at all. No it wouldn't. I could never imagine living a day without him. It would be such torture, I would probably decide to go down with him so we could still be together. I just hope he feels the same way.
-Starfire"
Starfire finished writing in her diary, and put it away in a safe place. Then she went to see what Robin was doing.
