At five in the morning, the second cake was finally finished. This one looked even more extravagant than the first. Golden icing gripped the sides in an elegant pattern. The white icing was underneath the gold, exaggerated in thickness. On the top sat a musical box Robin had bought especially for the birthday cake. Oh, to hear its wonderful music. Robin would be in heaven on her birthday - hopefully. But now, the cake was finished. He had to get to Jessie's (again) before anyone awoke. Robin stuffed the cake in a cream colored box and headed out the door.
"Yes, Mother. It is okay for you to come over today. I know! Just take a right at..." Starfire was trying to give her mother directions to Titans Tower.
"Honey, I can see it. It is rather gaudy. I just can not find the road to get there. I'll be there in a minute." Starfire's mom was very frustrated. "Dear, look! My daughter does not even live in a castle! She is royalty. Look, it is so drab. She probably lives in a sorority. Ugh - to even think it!" Starfire's mother was not aware of how close she really was with her guess on the alien girl's living situation.
"Is anyone hungry?"
"Starvin', dude!" Beast Boy walked into the kitchen where Robin stood with five plates of herb and cheese eggs, golden, buttered grits, and fresh toast. This breakfast would make anyone's mouth water, except Beast Boy.
"Man, can't you cook with tofu. I tell you to use tofu on my meal, but NOOOO! You don't ever listen." In a huff, Beast Boy left the kitchen.
"I bought you some tofu at the store to eat with your food."
"Really? In that case, bon appetit!" Beast Boy quickly made a beeline for his breakfast plate.
Breakfast went very well - until Starfire made an announcement. "Robin, Raven, Beast Boy Cyborg - I need to tell you something. My parents are coming over today."
Suddenly, the table became hushed. Some grits fell out of Beast Boy's mouth. You could see eggs in Cyborg's - his mouth gaped open. Robin dropped his fork. Even Raven became nervous.
"Your ... parents?" Robin was very surprised.
"Ahem. They should be here soon."
"Exactly how soon is..." The doorbell rang.
"Oh! Sooner than I thought. Everybody, try to look as clean as possible." Just to be obnoxious, Beast Boy took his napkin, put it inside his neckline, and rubbed tofu all over his face.
"Hi, Mother. Hi, Father." Starfire opened the plain, wooden door (which, of course, her parents didn't approve of), and invited the royal couple in.
"Uh... what a place." Her mother was appalled at the plain walls - no fancy artwork.
"Would you like some breakfast?" Starfire's parents stared at the home cooked meal.
"No, thank you." A look of greater surprise enveloped their faces when they saw Beast Boy. "Do you always need a bib?"
"Only when I attack people. I don't like getting blood on my shirt." The green boy had replied with a very satisfactory answer (according to himself), and it left the parents staring with disgusted looks on their faces.
Cyborg began to clear the table.
"I see that someone has manners around here." The two parents walked off to the living room.
"How are you doing, angel?" The mother was definitely not interested in her daughter's comrades after the incident at breakfast.
"Well, I have a lot of fun. My group and I are called the 'Teen Titans' around here. We do good to the neighborhood, you know"
"Oh, like a service group."
"Yeah! The other day, we..." A look from Starfire silenced Beast Boy, who was obviously out to give the parents absolute torture during their visit.
"How are things back in Tameria?" Starfire was trying to stop their conversation from broadening into a real description of what the Titans did.
"Oh, pretty good. Nothing new, you know. Same old thing..." Starfire's mom was distracted by Beast Boy. He was eating chips, making as much of a mess as possible, and drinking a glass of soda.
"Want some?" The green boy handed the proper lady the sticky soda, dropping it (on purpose) on her dress.
"Oh, I'm sorry. I'm bad about that. Do you need a paper towel?" Immediately, Beast Boy turned into a roll of paper towels. The woman fainted. Beast Boy changed back into his human form. "Whoops."
It was not long until Starfire's mother woke up. She was not happy, at all. She immediately stampeded to the door. "This was a bad decision. Honey, I am sorry, but we have to leave. You live with people who are not your class at all. You should be ashamed. You are royalty! Now get out of that t-shirt and into your proper apparel. You are a disgrace to your world. Now, I am leaving!" She stomped out the door to a waiting limo. All of the Titans clapped of happiness.
"You know what?"
"What?"
"I don't care!"
