Hey! Okay, this chapter has a song in it! Yay! And keep the reviews comin', people! DISCLAIMER: I do not own Teen Titans, and I didn't last chapter, I don't own Yellowcard, Ocean Avenue, or Ryan Key... why do you have to remind me?!?!?!? Helga Moon

Starfire woke up around ten o' clock, which was unusual for her, since she usually woke up at eight. She walked down to the kitchen, and saw Beast Boy eating breakfast, because he was usually the last one up.

"Hey Star, why are you up so late?" he asked, in between gulps. He was eating cereal.

"I did not feel pleasant last night," Starfire explained. "So I was awake most of the time." She sat down at the table, and looked at the fridge. "I wonder what there is to eat?" she said. She got up and looked in the fridge. She saw some frozen waffles, and decided to eat some of those. She heated it up, and sat down at the table again. She poured some syrup on her waffles, and began to eat.

Robin came in from the weight room. He and Cyborg had been working out, and who knows where Raven was. "Hey, do y'all want to go to the mall today?" He asked, rubbing his forehead off with a rag.

"Sure!" Beast Boy said with his mouth full. He swallowed. "There's nothing else to do, so why not?"

"Okay," Robin replied. "I'll tell Cyborg and Raven." He walked upstairs.

Starfire stuffed the remains of her waffles in her mouth, then went upstairs to change from her pjs.

Thirty minutes later, they were dressed and ready to go to the mall. Actually, they were at the mall. Starfire pretty much clung to Robin, Cyborg and Beast Boy went off to look at the video game store, and Raven told them that she would meet them at the food court in two hours.

"Starfire, how bout we spilt up, and meet each other at the food court?" Robin suggested. Several girls were giving Starfire the death Look.

"Okay, friend Robin," she said. "I will meet you in the court of food to purchase." She flew down the mall, looking in some girl stores Robin had refused to go in.

After a while, she decided to go into Hot Topic ®, not knowing what it was. As usual, several metalheads were in there, and they were all wondering why the heck a girl like Starfire was in there.

"Hey hottie," the metalhead clerk said. He had a blue Mohawk, and almost every inch of his face was pierced. "What's a girl like you doing here?"

"I am hot?" Starfire said, apparently confused. She felt her forehead. "I am certain my body temperature is normal."

The clerk laughed, then said, "Hey, Craig! Apparently looks aren't everything!" He pointed at Starfire. "What do you think?"

Another guy, with a shaved head and several tattoos and piercings said, "Yep, she's as dumb as a three watt!"

They both laughed at here, and soon other metalheads were joining in. Starfire was scared. She didn't think putting metal through one's ears was a good idea, and several of these weirdos had their eyebrows pierced!

"Leave me alone!" she cried, trying to get out of the store. She flew above the crowd, and even when she was out, she could hear them laughing. She couldn't understand what that guy meant about being hot. Nonetheless, it turned out to be an Earth word which she didn't understand.

She started to cry, and she flew up to the rafters so no one would see her. 'I'll run away,' she thought. 'I'll run away, back to my home planet!' She looked up from her hands. 'I'll tell the others good-bye, then I'll leave...'

She went to the food court, and saw the others. They looked up and Cyborg said, "Hey, there she is!"

She floated down. "I'm sorry friends," she said, "but I am returning to my home planet. I do not understand any of Earth's customs, and I never will." She started to float. "I hope we will meet again..."

"Star, don't leave!" Robin cried. "If it is, this must be good-bye..." Starfire looked at him, and she was starting to cry. "I wish I could stay, but not here, not now... good-bye, friends," she whispered, then flew out of an open window, and soon she couldn't be seen.

"Let's go home," Raven suggested. "We can find her, Robin." Robin started to cry, and he didn't care if anyone saw him. His true love had just left, and he didn't even say he loved her...

Back at the Tower, Robin was on the roof. It was sunset, and he had been up there since he had gotten home. He hadn't eaten anything, and the other Titans didn't try to do anything, hoping that Starfire would return and Robin would be happy again.

He sighed, watching the sun set. He looked at the beach, and saw the place where he and Star went a few days ago.

There across from Cherry Street,

We would walk on the beach in our bare feet

We were both eighteen and it felt so right

Sleeping all day, staying up all night

Staying up all night...

He stared up into space. She was gone, and he didn't even know where she was. 'I was such and idiot! Why did I let her go!' He cursed himself. 'I will find you, Star...'

If I could find you now, things would get better

We'd leave this town, and rock forever

So let your waves crash down on me,

And take me away

Later that night, he couldn't sleep. Starfire was in his dreams, but then she would disappear, and he would wake up, sweating all over his pillows. He told himself that she was in her room, as usual. But his heart told him the truth.

There's a part of you that's here with me

It's everywhere I go, and everything I see

When I sleep, I dream and it gets me by

I can make believe that you're here tonight

That you're here, tonight...

The next morning, he went down to breakfast, and it was the usual day, except without Starfire. He sat on the couch and stayed there for most of the day. He still couldn't believe she was gone...

I remember the look in your eyes,

When I told you that this was good-bye

You were begging me, not tonight

Not here, not now

We're looking at the same night sky,

And keep pretending the sun will not rise

We'll be together for one more night

Somewhere, somehow...

Okay... Star in Hot Topic is not good! I had to get this across cause the plus sign didn't show up and someone thought I was calling Hot Topic evil--which it isn't, I practically live there--and they called me a dumb$$. Just so you know. No hard feelings, MaroonEdPirate11... if you ever read this again. Which I doubt.

Okay, I'm redoing some chapters so they look good. Later!
