He Has Said It, But Did He Really Mean It?
The next morning, the Titans got ready for the day. The morning seemed perfect, birds chirping, the sun shining endlessly on the town, and the no cloud in the sky. They all decided to go to the mall. They all walked out the door and headed to town. As they approached the mall, the doors automatically opened to let the visitors in. They looked all around the mall and decided to split up. Boys went with boys and girls went with girls. Starfire walked into the store that was colorful. It had cranium accessories, clothes and shoes. Starfire looked at the store with big gulf balled eyes. Raven told her she'd be in a different store and Starfire told her that would be okay. She looked at the earrings and a princess crown. Being of Princess of Tamaran she placed it on her head and looked into a mirror. She looked frightened. She saw Speedy behind her.
"You have given me a fright, friend Speedy." Starfire turned around to face him.
"Really?" he grinned sheepishly.
Speedy grabbed her hand tenderly, to let her know that he wasn't going to kidnap her. She followed him her hand in his. They walked into the food court and sat at a table. They heard people talking loudly and footsteps.
"You know, Starfire? I meant what I said and I said what I meant when I told you that I liked you."
"Yes?" Starfire asked.
"Yeah."
Then they looked at each others eyes, blushing. Starfire didn't know what to say. She just saw a love struck Speedy looking straight into her emerald eyes. Never looking at anything else. She could feel the heat on her face; she knew she was blushing a bright red. He leaned in on her and kissed her barely on the lips; she put a hand on his chest to stop him, but took her hand away. Then she remembered his apologies.
"Wait, you told me and Robin you wouldn't do this again." She told him, looking into his masked eyes. They were touching noses.
"I didn't mean it."
Starfire's eyes squinted looking at his left eye and then right, quickly. Robin didn't have time for her and she knew it. Robin was obsessed with Slade, Speedy wasn't. I love Robin, She thought. She had no idea if she wanted to be with Robin or Speedy. She kept thinking of Robin. She came back into reality and looked into Speedy's eyes.
