The next morning, Starfire woke up and remembered everything that happened. The first thought that came up was Robin's shirtless chest. She smiled. Then she remembered how she had almost kissed Robin! What was she thinking? She knew what she had to do.
She dialed Eros's phone number into the phone.
"Hello?" answered Eros.
"Eros, it is Starfire. Can you meet me for breakfast at the Jump City Pancake House?" Starfire asked.
"Of course, Tootsie. I love pancakes! Pancakes, pancakes, PANCAKES! Yum!"
"Good. Meet me there no later than 9:30."
"Okay, Starburst. Pancakes!" They hung up.
Starfire glanced at her clock. Yikes! It was 9:20. She quickly pulled on jeans and a T-shirt, ran a brush through her hair, and flew straight down the stairs, and pulled flip- flops on. Just as she was about to leave, Robin stopped her.
"Star, what's the hurry?" he asked.
"I do not really have time," said Starfire, opening the door.
"Star, I need to talk to you about last night."
"I will be back soon. I must go now." With this, she kissed him on the forehead and flew straight out the door. Robin watched her with a pang of jealousy.
He then realized she kissed him. It was on his forehead, and it seemed entirely platonic, but he wasn't 100 sure. He touched the spot, and then fainted
TTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT
When Starfire entered the Pancake house, Eros was waiting for her. The smell of pancakes was making him drool.
"Hey, baby," Eros said, slinking his arm around Starfire. "Lets eat now. I'm starving." They walked over to a table and ordered food.
When the food came, Starfire began her carefully prepared speech. "Eros, you are a very nice boy and everything." Eros continues pigging out. "But I must tell you, while we have been doing the going out, I have loved someone else." Eros seemed to listen a little more. "And I didn't think he would, but he seems to have feelings for me back. And if he does not, I will have to deal with it. But my point is that I must follow my heart and do the breaking up with you." Eros was totally listening at this point, and his jaw hung open. "But, Eros, may we still be—"
"Don't even say friends," said Eros angrily and he stormed off.
TTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT
Robin had woken up and was now pacing in his room. He then heard a knock at his door. He opened it excitedly thinking it was Starfire. He groaned after finding out it was Beast Boy and Cyborg.
"Yo, Robin, want some of my tofu eggs?" said Beast Boy, holding a plate of them.
"No," said Robin.
"Come on man," said Cyborg. "Nobody wants tofu eggs."
"Beast Boy, leave me alone!" said Robin.
"You're jealous of Starfire's date, aren't you?" said Beast boy. Robin didn't answer. "Look, when are you going to tell her?"
Robin slammed the door. He was real pissed now. If they bothered him one more time…
There was another knock at the door. Robin groaned. "I don't want tofu eggs," he said.
"I do not wish to give you tofu eggs." It was Starfire. Robin opened the door.
"You wish to talk?" said Starfire. Robin nodded.
"Come in," he said. Starfire walked in. "Um, do you want to sit down?" he asked. She nodded and sat down on his bed. He sat down next to her.
"Eros and I did the breaking up."
"Oh, Star, I'm really sorry, that stupid jerk!"
"I did the breaking up with him."
"Oh. It didn't have anything to do with me, did it?"
"What do you mean?"
"I was always making fun of him and all."
"Not like that. But it did have to do with you."
"How?"
"For a very long time, I have had feelings for you. Feelings that go beyond friendship. Much beyond friendship. Last night, I almost did something I would have regretted had I been going out with Eros. I love you, and I hope you love me back."
It took a few moments for all this to process through Robin's head. But then, he kissed her. And they just kissed and kissed and kissed…
THE END
But wait! There's an epilogue! And then it will be over! I'm gonna miss you all so much. Well, except for those of you reading my other fic, "Family Reunion." But for those of you who aren't, I will have to say goodbye after my epilogue (sobs). So keep reading!
Love Always,
