Chapter 3: A Cure?
Starfire slept peacefully all night, thinking about the little scene with Robin. She opened her eyes slowly and coughed again. The alien tried to get up from her bed, but she felt so weak, she had to lie down immediately. She groaned and shut her eyes again.
" Starfire" said a voice.
Starfire slowly lifted her head and opened her eyes. Standing before her, was Raven. " Yes?" The Tamaranian asked, wishing that Raven, was Robin.
" We have some breakfast for you, if you're hungry. I know you can't really move, but I can bring some up for you," said Raven, in her usual tone of voice.
" No. I am not hungry" Starfire replied, coughing again.
" Well, I can get you some water to stop the coughing" the half-demon offered.
" Um, okay."
" I'll be back in a few minutes," Raven said as she walked out the door.
Starfire shut her eyes. She was still trying to remember the name of the disease she had. On Tamaran, many people had it, the old and the young. The most frightening part she remembered was that everyone who had it ended up dying with it. Tears streamed down her eyes as she remembered seeing all the sick people back on her home planet. Then, she realized that the technology was better on earth and in Titans Tower. She probably could get better with the earth technology. Something was bothering her, as she thought and thought. Starfire remembered that back on Tamaran, someone said something about a special cure. The alien princess thought hard as Raven returned with her water.
" If you need anything else, use this" said Raven, pulling out a small microphone. " Cyborg and Robin hooked up speakers all throughout the tower. If you need anything at all, talk in the mike and one of us will be here shortly." Raven put the device on the table next to the bed and walked out.
" Thank you, Raven" Starfire said and took a drink from the large clear glass, still thinking about the cure.
000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
A few hours had passed, and it was almost midnight. Starfire used the microphone many times and a Titan would always come and aid her with anything. She was tired of thinking and wanted to get some sleep. She slept so peacefully.
" I wonder if she's okay in there" said Robin outside her door.
" If she needs anything, she can use that mike we got her" Cyborg said and pointed to the door.
" Yeah. It's not like she could be dying right now," said Beast Boy.
" What is she is? I'm going to go in and check," Robin told them as Beast Boy and Cyborg walked down the long hallway to their rooms. Robin opened the door and saw the alien princess sleeping, as she was the night before. He sat on the bed and grabbed her hand, whispering the same words to her as he previously did.
Starfire's eyes shot open and looked at him. He looked back from underneath his mask. " I did not use that device," Starfire told him, pointing to the mike on the table.
" I wanted to check on you again," he said, blushing.
" Oh, I see. Thanks" she said smiling.
" Are you okay?"
Starfire shivered. It was kind of cold in the room, even though she was covered in blankets. Robin saw her shiver, and looked at her, very concerned. He hesitated at first, but he picked her up and sat her down on his lap. The Tamaranian's eyes widened as she rested her head on his chest. This feels so warm she thought and closed her eyes.
Robin's heart was beating a mile a minute as her embraced her. He knew she was extremely sick, but he still wanted to help her, support her. He smiled as he rested his head on her chin and gently rubbed her back.
Starfire coughed again and snuggled deeper into Robin's chest. Just then, she remembered something. There was something about Robin that made her remember everything about her home planet, and the disease.
" The cure!" she exclaimed and pulled away from Robin.
" What?" Robin was pretty confused.
" I know the cure for this disease and exactly where to find it!"
Ooooohhh! Cliffhanger! No fair, huh? Yes, I am very cruel…but it was a good chapter, yes? I added more fluffiness and cuteness as some of you requested! The next chapter might not be up for a while. I barely managed to put this chappie up today! I'm gonna be busy like, all week. So, maybe next week I'll have chapter 4 up for you guys. I start school on the 31st, so I have back to school shopping to do! I hope to make the next chappies a bit longer! Well, if you liked it, review please! Arigato!
