To Love or not to Love?

It was a cool and quiet evening. Everybody seemed to be doing something, even if it seemed like absolutely nothing at all. Cyborg managed to put up a fire to keep the rest of them warm for the night. On this strange new planet it would freeze when nightfall hit.

Beast Boy found some marshmallows in the old ship and was trying the best he could to roast them. Since there were no sticks or plants to be found, he turned into a porcupine and used one of his quills. As he morphed into the spiky creature, Cyborg picked one of his quills as well, and stuck a marshmallow on it. Then they began to roast them.

Raven sat in an isolated part of their little camp, away from the fire. She settled herself down against the cave and meditated peacefully. "Azerath Metrion Zinthos.... Azerath Metrion Zinthos..."

Robin was alone in the cave. He sat down on a rock, deep in thought. He was very concerned about Starfire. He didn't want anything harmful to happen to her. He opened up a plastic bag that held a red woolen blanket inside of it. It was very cold now, and he was not by the fire to keep warm.

Starfire wondered away from the fire and peeked in the cave. She found that Robin was alone. She sighed as she moved forward.

Robin looked up as he saw Starfire enter into the cave. He smiled as he settled his hands down at his sides. "...Hello Starfire..."

"Hi Robin..." Starfire took a seat on the rock next to him and returned his smile with a slight blush. Then she realized how cold it was away from the fire. She rubbed her arms and shivered a bit. Robin moved up closer to her and wrapped the blanket around her to keep her warm. "...Thank you." Her big green wondered up and gazed into his.

"It's really cold around here... Shouldn't you be by the fire?" Robin looked down at Starfire and smirked.

"Well..." Starfire looked down at the floor and rubbed her arm. "I uh... I... wanted to be with you..." Starfire looked into Robin's mysterious eyes and smiled.

Robin allowed his hand to stroke her long auburn hair and looked warmly into her emerald green eyes. "Well that's allright I guess...."

"I greatly appreciate your help... I wish for your safety..." Starfire turned away for a second.

"Don't worry about it... Besides, I can't just let Blackfire kill you!?" Robin turned Starfire's head to face him again. "I'm not going to let anything or anyone hurt you! ...You can count on that."

Starfire looked up, deep into his eyes and sighed. "Why? .... Why would you do that?" Starfire had a feeling of what the answer would be, but she wanted to make sure.

There was a moment of silence between both Robin and Starfire. Robin leaned over a tad and gazed deep into her eyes. "Because.... Because I love you..." He smiled and stroked her log beautiful hair.

Starfire was touched. She didn't know how to respond. "I... I love you too...." She moved forward and allowed her body to lean against his chest. She felt his arms embrace her as he hugged her, and she sighed. She wished this moment would never end.

"HIIIIIII!!!!!!!!" A hideous green blob emerged from underneath a rock in the form of a spider. Then Beast Boy took his normal form and started to laugh.

Starfire shrieked and backed away as Robin gave Beast Boy an evil glare. Beast Boy fell to the floor laughing hysterically. "I love you! I love you too! I love you! I love you too! Mwa! Mwa! Mwa!" Beast Boy chanted mimickingly.

Robin got up, baring his teeth, frowning as he stomped over towards Beast Boy. Beast Boy stopped and moved backwards, being threatened by Robin as he came closer with clenched fists. "Um.... Ok dude... I'll stop now....." Robin continued to move in menacingly. "Um... I'm sorry? Stay back! Stay back!! ....... AHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Beast Boy ran out of the cave as Robin chased him down violently.


Well there it is! I'm SO glad that more people are reviewing! It really makes me want to keep going! ...And that I shall! Good day.
