Thank you to my reviewers, they were very entertaining to read. I hope you like this chapter and also, Robin and Starfire is the main pairing so that's why I've been focusing a lot on them! There is a bit of Raven and Beast Boy, not as much as Robin and Starfire, so sorry to those who wanted less of Robin and Starfire so pffffft : P Btw, I don't really know how to write Raven and Beast Boy..so yeah... I just wrote whatever came into my head! I need to hurry this up and for some reason; I dunno how to slow down! MMMMMM…nice cookie sparrowing!
Chapter 3
Soul Mates
Robin and Beast Boy were on the couch, Robin was flicking through channels on the TV and Beast Boy was sleeping while drooling, as usual.
" We are ready!" exclaimed Starfire's cheery voice.
She looked exactly like a candy cane, well at least she looked sweet! Her dress had stripes of red and white going diagonally and the dress was sleeveless. The length was just above the ankles (well its sorta like the length of the dress she wore to the prom in the episode: Date With Destiny.).
Robin's jaw dropped," Wow! You look great Star! Ummmm…what are you supposed to be Raven?"
"Ghost of Christmas Future, what did you think I would wear? Something happy and bright?" asked Raven.
She was wearing a black robe and hood. She looked the same except for the fact that the robe covered her whole body.
" You're finally getting the Christmas Spirit, aye Raven?" Beast Boy nudged a rather annoyed Raven while he was winking. " So, how do I look? Is it hot in here or is it just me?"
" It's just you!" said everyone in unison.
" Let's get this over and done with and go," said Raven in her monotone voice.
At the Ball
They entered the gym with Beast Boy trying to make a big entrance.
" Are you ready to PAR-TAY?!" shouted Beast Boy.
Everyone in the gym looked at him.
" This is gonna be a loooooooong night," mumbled Raven.
"Hey I heard that!" shot back Beast Boy.
Robin and Starfire left Beast Boy and Raven, who were still arguing.
They passed lots of people in funny costumes, including a pair of twins, each wrapped as a present. The boxes were pretty big and so their costumes were really annoying people by making them fall over or something like that.
" Wanna get some punch?" asked Robin, shyly.
" But I don't not want to punch anyone or someone to punch me!" replied Starfire, worriedly.
" Star, punch is just a drink, so would you like a drink?" asked Robin.
" That would be very nice!" responded Starfire.
Robin left to get some punch. When he was gone, two boys who had no dates were checking Starfire out.
" Hey check out that eye candy over there! I would sure like to see what flavour she is!" said one of the boys.
" Ummm…I think she is mint because she's dressed up as a candy cane," replied the other boy, confused at what his friend had said. Let's call them Thing1 and Thing2. Thing 1 hit Thing 2 on the head.
"Not like that you dumbass," said Thing 1.
" Then like what?" asked Thing 2, scratching his head.
" Nevermind," said Thing1," Let's just go talk to her," and he grinned evilly.
" Hey babydoll, what's up?" said Thing 1.
" I am not a doll, nor a baby, I am human and I am a teenager! And only the Christmas tree is up as you can see, or are you blind? " said Starfire, confused, unaware of what they were trying to do.
" Oooohh, I like 'em fiesty! So wanna dance since you don't have a date like me?" asked Thing 1. He didn't wait for an answer, he just swung out to the dancefloor. He slipped his arms around her waist and pulled her close.
Robin came and saw Starfire and Thing 1 dancing. Starfire didn't look very happy.
" Stay away from her!" shouted Robin angrily and was about to give him a punch when he felt Starfire's arms hold his arms down.
" Please, do not ruin this night, he did not know what he was doing, and…and…" said Starfire, trying to think of something else to say.
" Who cares Star, he touched you! And now he has to pay!" said Robin, and he turned around to punch Thing 1, but he was gone and so was Thing 2. " If anyone ever touches my girl…" Robin stopped talking, realising what he had just said. He hoped Starfire didn't notice.
' Maybe he really does like me!' thought Starfire happily, but before she could think even more Robin started talking.
" You see I didn't get any punch because strangely enough the punchbowl broke! They're getting the second emergency bowl out. Eheheh," laughed Robin.
" Oh! Look! There is Raven and Beast Boy! Let us join them!" exclaimed Starfire.
Just as Starfire and Robin reached them the lights blacked out. Many shrieks were heard. No one knew where they were, not even Robin! He couldn't tell if Starfire was still next to him.
" Raven did you do this?" asked Robin, shouting over the noise.
" No," she replied.
" I didn't do anything to her! She broke the punchbowl when I took her hand!" shouted back Beast Boy.
" Well that explains it," said Robin.
The organiser of the Ball talked into a microphone and everyone fell silent.
" Now, don't panic people! This is a tradition that we have every ball! This is how it goes; you find your soul mate through the dark. Hold some one's hand and then if theirs feel right then hold onto it tight, don't let it go! When we say stop, the lights will turn back on and you shall see who your soul mate is! Any questions?" asked the organiser.
" What if you get someone of the same gender?" asked a boy.
" Well…ummm…that means that you two were meant to be best friends!" answered the organiser, " Now everyone when I say go, grab people's hands and find the right one! Ready, set, GO!"
People started grabbing each other's hands. Starfire finally found a hand that fit perfectly in hers, so did Robin and Raven and Beast Boy.
" Now Stop! Turn on the lights!" shouted the organiser after around a minute.
The lights turned on and there were shocked and surprised faces.
" YAY! We're soul mates!" shouted the twins that were dressed up as presents. They tried hugging each other but couldn't reach each other.
" Ummm…dude? You're just best buds," said a guy who got a teacher (WTF was she doing in there? Sorry about the wtf).
" OH ok! Close enough!" shouted the twins and they settled for a pat on the head.
" Robin! You are my soul mate?" asked Starfire, shocked yet happy.
" Yes, I am," said Robin, thinking that she was disappointed and looked away.
" So what did I tell ya? We were meant to be!" said Beast Boy to Raven.
" Uhh…you never told me that," replied Raven and she looked somewhat happy.
" Everyone! It's time for the Christmas countdown!" shouted the organiser," 10…9…8…7…6…5…," Everyone joined in.
"4…3…2…," Soul mates of the opposite genders were kissing, best friends were hugging. Starfire and Robin leaned in.
" 1…0, MERRY CHRISTMAS!" everyone shouted, well at least those that weren't kissing , or the ones that stopped just to finish the countdown.
" I love you Robin," whispered Starfire.
" I love you too!" whispered back Robin and they leaned in for a kiss.
Suddenly the lights blacked out, but the actually exploded! But no one actually noticed because they were kissing their soul mates or the best friends people were leaving already, sick with watching them.
" Oops, my bad," said Raven, mischievously. And Raven and Beast Boy started kissing, and everyone was unaware of the glass that was breaking or anything exploding.
