Pairing Rob/Star For all my good internet and not internet friends!
So this is Love
The Tamerainian princess paced back and forth in her large room. She had been waiting for this day what seemed like forever. This was the day the city would be celebrating them, the Titans. On her home planted there had been many festivals celebrating many different people or events, and as princess she would always go with her sister. This would be different though. No more running around with Backfire, or drinking all the zoorka berry juice she wanted, or dancing with Glafore. She bit her lip. Starfire missed him terribly and this would be the first celebration in her honor that he would not be coming to.
Starfire flopped face down on her bed. She had gone shopping with Raven the minute the new of the ball was out. Her head lifted and she blew her bangs out of her eyes. Every titan had been bugged by her constant asking if she could get ready yet. Her hand went under her chin as she traced little hearts into the comforter. This time she would be going with her friends and she could not wait. The auburn haired girl looked at the clock. 'Well a good five minutes have passed. Now where is Robin?'
Starfire found the Boy Wonder in the kitchen. She flew over to where he was making something, she couldn't see what. "Hello Robin! What are you doing?"
"Huh? Oh hi Star. I was just fixing lunch, want some?" Robin said looking up from his sandwich.
"No thank you. I just wanted to know if it was time to get ready for the ball that is not a toy!"
Robin chuckled "Sure Star, if you really want to get ready now go ask Raven if she is ready.". Starfire had asked Robin if the time to get ready had come yet more then any other titan.
"Raven…" Starfire called to her dark friend. "Robin said that now was a good time to get ready for the ball that is not a toy." She waited at the door for a few moments and then Raven let her in. The Azerithian went to the closet where they had kept the dresses. Starfire's eyes danced as she looked over her dress again. She ran over to the lilac dress. Raven took her wrist and shook her head.
"First do your hair." Raven said turning to her dress. As Starfire pinned up her auburn hair she hummed. 'Oh what will Robin think of me?' She thought pinning up one curl after another. The alien wanted to share with her closest female friend what she was thinking. However when the words started coming out of her mouth, her timid self held her back. Luckily for Starfire, Raven got was her friend was saying. This made Starfire feel better, like she wasn't keeping everything inside, she hated to do that. When she was finally done with her hair, Starfire slipped the puffy over her head. The silver star at the side of the dress's waist line glittered in Raven's poorly lit room. The littler stars that littered the skirt also sparkled. She truly felt grown up. Her only wish was that her family could see her.
Unknown to everyone, Starfire was very worried about how Robin would react. She often wondered if Robin saw her as just a silly little girl. More then anything she wanted to be viewed as beautiful in her leaders eyes. As the girls descended the stairs Starfire searched the Boy Wonder's face. She was very confused with what she saw. His mouth was opened slightly and his mask showed his eyes were open wide as well. She saw Robin seem to jump alive. He shook his head and linked her arm in his. The boy leaned his face to her ear. "You look very nice tonight Starfire." He said in a hushed whisper. A blush made it's way to Starfire's orange tinted cheeks. Robin led her out to the T-car that was parked out side the tower door.
Very casually Robin sat next to Starfire in the back of the car. His hand held hers slightly. They stayed like that until Cyborg pulled up to the location of the ball. At first Starfire wasn't sure if Robin would want dance with her. 'I do not wish to upset him by asking!' Starfire said to herself, 'But you will never know unless you try!' argued the other side. During the mental battle, Robin had placed his hands on the girl's hips. "Hey Star, want to dance?"
Robin and Starfire swayed to the music. Robin leaned close to Starfire's ear again. He started to sing in a hushed whisper "So this is love, Mmmmmm
So this is love
So this is what makes life divine"
Starfire stopped in shock of what she was hearing! Robin, her Robin singing? After the initial shock, the beauty recognized the song. She immediately began to sing along "I'm all aglow, Mmmmmm
And now I know
The key to all heaven is mine"
At that point the two titans were ecstatic their feelings were being returned. 'She does like me, even if it was a Disney song that got her…' Robin thought to himself. He felt a tap on his back.
A young man about Robins age stood in front of the couple. "Hello, mind if I…" he gestured at Starfire.
"Umm..we were kinda dancing here." Robin said as the boy shoved him out of the way.
"Yes, but I am the mayor's son you see? So I get first dibs on the hot girls." He said as he smiled at Starfire and twirled her harshly about. Starfire looked at Robin and mouthed "I am 'hot?'.
Robin looked at the two with jealousy rushing through his body. 'Who was that guy to call my Starfire hot? He doesn't even love her, I do! Whoa! Back up!' Just as Robin was going to turn and leave to sit down and clear his head, he felt another tap on his shoulder. This time he saw a gloved hand that belonged to…
"Starfire!" Robin said.
"Yes, it is I. Is that okay? I did not like that boy very much. He kept telling me about how good I looked. I do not care what he thinks. It was an uncomfortable experience." The Tamerainian mumbled looking at her feet. "I wish to dance with you now please."
Robin nodded and led her to the balcony. There they continued to dance. Robin continued to sing "My heart has wings, Mmmmmm
And I can fly
I'll touch ev'ry star in the sky"
They sang together "So this is the miracle that I've been dreaming of
Mmmmmm
Mmmmmm
So this is love"
Robin stopped dancing and held Starfire's waist in one hand and her hand in the other.
When the titans got home Starfire went to her room and changed. Then she went to the roof in her purple silky pajamas. Robin came to the roof too. "Hey Star." Robin greeted his friend.
"Hello Robin." Starfire whispered. The two sat looking at the stars for a moment when the girl said "Did you mean it Robin, do you think being with me could possibly feel like love?"
At fist the boy was startled. Then he looked into her green eyes and nodded. "Yes Star, I do love being with you. I think you are great. You are really very special to me.". Starfire's eyes danced. She gently hugged Robin and pecked him on the cheek. Starfire then grabbed his arms.
"Come my qritilin! We must share this love we have found!" The love stuck girl ran to find her friends while a blushing boy struggled to keep up.
A/N okay done! We all know what happens next. Qirtilin is what I made up it means lover or boyfriend or whatever, just a Tamerainian endearment. Please no flames. This was just an add on to the last shot, so it is supposed to be short!
