The Aftermath

The next couple days really stretched out to seem like forever. The titans were making the most of their days, doing their usual activities, while of course trying to find out more about R. Besides the information they got from Starfire, they had nothing. So they never got bored between fighting crime and playing on the gamestation, meditating, training, going out for pizza, etc. But one tameranian girl wasn't very happy, and it was starting to worry the titans, especially one teenage boy in particular.

Robin was really starting to get worried over Starfire. She hadn't really been her cheery, joyful self. Just an ok mood, thats all. And sometimes she just moped around. The others suggested she was probably just still tired out from the other night, but Robin knew Starfire way better then that. Something was definitly up, and he was going to find out what it was.

Later in the afternoon, Robin walked down the halls to Starfire's room. He tried knocking the door, but no one answered. He looked in the common room, training room, and just about every other room in the tower. But no Starfire. The Robin slapped himself on the head. "Of course! The one other place where I know she almost always go!" So Robin made his way up to the top of Titans Tower. And sure enough, when he opened the door, he found what he was looking for.

The Tameranian was sitting at the edge of the tower, the same spot where she was sitting when she was watching the sunrise. As Robin walked quietly towards Starfire, he heard something. But it didn't sound like a good sound. It was indeed a sad sound. He crept a little closer towards her, now seeing what was happening. Starfire was crying, and instantly Robin became concerned for her. He walked right up next to her and took a seat. "Starfire, whats wrong?" He put a hand on her shoulder. Stopping the tears from freely flowing down her cheeks, Starfire looked up to see Robin sitting right next to her. She didn't know whether to acknowledge his presence, or to hide her face away, or just run off. But she couldn't, since she still had the bandages around her ankles and wrists. So there was only one other option. "Oh Robin!" Starfire leaned against Robin, resting her head on his chest, letting more tears out, dampening his shirt.

Seeing this, Robin wrapped an arm around Starfire's shoulders, using his free hand to hold Starfire's arm and massage it soothingly. Trying his best to comfort her, he softly said "Its ok Star, its ok. Just let it all out." This continued for a little while. Eventually Starfire stopped, and just leaned quietly against Robin. He used his index finger to tilt up her chin, so her face met his. "Why are you crying Star? Whats wrong?" Starfire took a minute to regain her composure. She sat up and said in a sad voice. "Dear friend, so much has gone on this week. The stealing of the jewel, Cinderblock, R, the dreams..." "Dreams? Star, what have you been dreaming? Are you having nightmares?!" Starfire looked down, and then back up at Robin.

"Look Robin, it doesn't even matter. The truth is, i've been behaving this way because....." "You can tell me what it is Star" Robin eve n gave a reassuring smile. Starfire smiled back. She took a deep breath, and her face blushed a little. "Robin.......I love you." Now Robin was blushing wildly, but yet, he liked the feeling. Infact, he loved every second of it. "R-Really?" Starfire nodded. He rubbed the back of his neck. "Well Star, the truth is....I love you too. I've loved you ever since the first day you came here. Those beautiful emerald eyes, that lovely ruby red hair of yours, that infectious giggle.." Starfire giggled. Robin smiled a little wider. "I've loved everything about you since I first met you, and I wouldn't want anything to happen to you. I promise from now on, i'll protect you, no matter what." And it was a promise he was intending to keep.

"Robin?" "Yea Star?" "May we do the 'kissing' again? I found it most enjoyable last time." Robin started blushing again. "Sure Starfire." Leaning forward to Starfire's face, and vice versa, their lips brushed against eachothers. It became a little deeper, and deeper. Robin wrapped his arms around Starfire, and she placed her hands on his shoulders. They were obviously enojoying every moment of it, they charished it well. Doing this for a long time, they finally stopped, and looked out across the lake.

Starfire snuggled in Robin's lap, making herself comfortable. Robin kept his arms wrapped around her, never letting her go, like if he was protecting her. Their hands were cupped together, fingers laced. Starfire let out a content sigh, tilting her eyelids a little. Robin kissed her forehead, making her look up and kiss his cheek. Snuggling as close to eachother as possible, they stayed on the roof for the rest of the day, wishing the day could never end.

Wasn't that sweet?! i think it was!!! of course thats just me, hehe. anyways, this is suppose to be the last chapter. since i love all you guys so much, i'll give you a few options.
