Okay, for those of you who haven't heard, I GOT MY COMPUTER FIXED and my mom got a new computer too. Unfortunately, my mom wont let me touch the other computer and mine slow as hell, so...yeah...
Now that I actually have time to type up my stuff (yay!) I am treating you all to new chapters in every single fic (even the one shot...it's no longer a one shot...hehe) and imma start two new fics! (Both under Teen Titans, Drops of Jupiter and She Will Be Loved) YAY! Aren't you all lucky? (lol jk. I just hope you like it...) Oh and I still only have WordPad and my spelling skills, as you all know, suck so badly it's not even right, so just bear with me until I get Microsoft Word or something else with a spell checker. I'll try to be careful, okie? OKIE!
Chapter Dedication: To StarFireFlower. I might not know you personally, but you're a blast to talk to online and your fics are the best I've read on the site...so far...(mwahahaha...no really, her fics are great. If you haven't already, go look up and read Once Again, then the sequel, Going Home? and then the sequel to that, Complicated...long I know, but soooo good...). Thanks for being there to listen to my random and sometimes stupid babble. Evil perverted umpires...revenge will be sweet indeed...mwahahahahahaha (and I'm being serious about that one...) Oh and sorry I didn't know how to make coffee...hehe...but I guess you don't need to know anymore...haha...
Okay, continuing...
Robin shook his head.
"I'm sorry, I just hallucinated. What?"
"I'm Starfire's boyfriend from Tamaran, Scorpio." Robin blinked.
"She never said anything about a-"
"Friend Robin, who is it at the door…?" Starfire suddenly stopped and gasped at the sight of Scorpio, then flew up in apparent fury unleashing a string of Tamaranian words. "Vecidaw kin'es ineslae dii'nso ki'vew liow wige'd..." (A/N: I have no idea how to speak Tamaranian, so deal with it.)
"...uh...what's she saying?" Robin watched as Starfire flew back and fourth, continuing to speak.
"She's...ah...she's pretty much cussing me out in Tamaranian..." Scorpio sighed. "I had a feeling she'd be like this..."
"Like what?"
"Never mind. Are...you two the only ones living here?" Scorpio seemed a bit alarmed at the thought. Suddenly a green tiger emerged from the door, chased by a rather ticked Cyborg.
"You cheater! You messed with my controller!" Cyborg lunged at the tiger but missed and fell into the water instead. Beast Boy changed back into his human form.
"I did not Tin Man!" The changeling sniggered as his metal friend rose out of the water, haywire electric sparks flying everywhere.
"Starry's been living with...three guys?" Scorpio's face was pale.
"What is going on here?" Raven flew out from behind Robin, sighing. Alarm filled her eyes when she saw Cyborg attempting to tackle Beast Boy once again. "Azarath, Metreon, Zinthos!" Cyborg jumped and hit a black force field as Beast Boy scampered to safety. "Immature idiots..."
"She's been living with three guys and another girl." Robin shrugged. "What's it to you? Star doesn't seem to like you much anyways." He gestured to the alien above him, still spewing Tamaranian words. Robin wasn't sure just how many swear words there were in the Tamaranian language, but he was pretty sure he had heard most of them within the last five minutes.
"Star's in love with me. I know it...or at least she will be..."
"What's that supposed to mean?" Robin eyed Scorpio warily.
"Nothing, nothing..." The newcomer held up his hands. "Rather protective aren't we?"
"It's my duty to protect all the Titans."
"The Titans? Is that what you queer folk call yourselves?"
"Got a problem with it?" Robin's teeth were clenched and his fists were balled up tightly.
"Not really," Scorpio seemed indifferent. "Hey Starry!"
The alien girl continued shouting, now in English.
"Traitor...I did not think that I would have to see your horrible face again…Back as though you can fix things...It is too late now!" Starfire swooped down, picking up a sizable rock and aiming it at Scorpio's head.
"Starry, put down the rock..." Scorpio flew up to Starfire, taking the rock from her hand. "C'mon, I know I don't exactly deserve the red carpet treatment, but after three million light-years and seventeen hundred Earth phone books, I think I'm entitled to a better reception than that."
"I...no you do not...but...I..." Starfire couldn't help but stutter. When she had been together with Scorpio, he was rather good looking. Two years later, he qualified as totally hot, almost topping even Robin...Starfire shook her head. Almost.
"I thought so." Scorpio smiled his charming smile.
On the ground, Raven, Beast Boy, Cyborg and Robin were watching.
"I don't like him." Raven's eyes were filled with distaste.
"Me either..." Beast Boy transformed into a tiny green bird and flew up to Scorpio, pecking at his face a few times in a feeble attempt to help Starfire out.
"Disgusting little fiend..." Scorpio unleashed a powerful bright blue starbolt, sending Beast Boy soaring back downwards.
"Are you okay?" Raven used her powers to create a trampoline of sorts, so that it wouldn't hurt as much when the changeling hit the ground.
"Ow...thanks Rae...ow..."
Raven's eyes were flashing, hatred quickly taking over. No one touched Beast Boy, not when she was around.
After exchanging a few more quiet words with Scorpio, Starfire flew to the ground in defeat. The other three Titans gathered around her.
"I need a place to stay..." Scorpio touched down as well. "I was hoping I could maybe spend a few days here..."
"The motel's full." Raven's eyes narrowed menacingly.
"Well you guys have a whole tower, and there are only five of you..."
"That doesn't mean we have room." Beast Boy sided with Raven, especially after getting shot down with a starbolt.
"Aw...c'mon guys, we can always make room...RIGHT?" Cyborg received questioning looks from all the Titans.
"Excuse us." Robin pulled his friends inside the Tower, leaving Scorpio to wait outside.
"What do you MEAN we can make room for one more?" Beast Boy looked confused and somewhat betrayed.
"I do not wish for him to be near me!" Starfire's face was mixed with emotions.
"Look, if we don't keep that freak in check, he could wreck havoc on the entire city. That guy's probably the evil equivalent of Starfire." A dawning of comprehension came upon the younger Titans.
Scorpio was to stay.
"You haven't changed a bit." Scorpio put his arm around Starfire. She shook him off, annoyed.
"That is none of your concern any longer. You are my ex-boyfriend. You should not even be here!" Robin sighed with relief. So there was still a chance...
"Aw...c'mon Starry..." Scorpio took her by the shoulders and positioned her so that she was looking into his eyes.
Those eyes.
The electric blue eyes that Starfire had fallen in love with in the first place. On the other hand, Starfire had never even seen Robin's eyes. How she wished she could...
"Look, Starry, can we just talk?" Starfire blinked, suddenly realizing how Scorpio had been addressing her for the past twenty minutes. She hadn't been called Starry in a long time. Slowly she nodded. "Uh...alone?" The alien girl took Scorpio's hand and led him to the entrance of the roof. As soon as they were gone, Beast Boy busted up.
"Starry? What a wannabe freak!"
Robin's teeth were grinding together.
"Hey, uh...ya'll okay?" Cyborg noticed the nasty expression on Robin's face.
"I'm just DUCKY!" The Boy Wonder stormed off.
"...ducky?"
"Starry, c'mon. I need you to understand..."
"There is not anything to understand, for I understand perfectly. I do not wish to see you any longer." Scorpio looked her in the eyes. It was melting Starfire inside out.
"Starry, I want you to come home."
"Wha-?" Those piercing electric blue eyes...
"Starry, I'm sorry. I really am for...what happened two years ago. I swear, I didn't mean for it to...well..."
"I..."
"Starry, I'm still in love with you. I always have been. I simply went mad when I found out that you'd left. I swear, I wept solidly for ten minutes."
"Ten? I am very touched." Starfire's tongue dripped with Earthen sarcasm, something not customary to her, but on this occasion, it was defiantly required.
"Starry, I want you to come home and stop with this...absurd Titans business!"
"Absurd? Is that what you think my friends and I are? We save the city every day-"
"That's splendid, but I love you...and I know you still love me..." Starfire felt as though she was falling into those endless blue eyes. She tried to move but couldn't. She seemed to be frozen solid. What was going on?
"Come home Starry..." Scorpio was moving in to kiss her, and Starfire didn't seem to have any power over her body...
Hmm...I think I'll end there. CLIFFHANGER! Mwahahahaha...yeah I'm evil like that...unless you don't like this fic in which case I am doing you no harm...darn...
Love,
