Chapter 6 Starfire's POVMorning Events

I woke to the bright and beautiful sunrise coming though my window. I took a shower and got ready to join my friends and Terra's sisters for breakfast.

When I got down stairs I saw something. That I was not used to seeing.

CY AND BB WERE NOT FIGHTING!

Skyler was cooking while Cy and Raven talked to her. BB was telling Terra jokes and she was laughing happily.

What surprised me most was that Robin, dearest friend Robin, was not present.

I walked over to Cy and asked, "Where is friend Robin?"

It was Skyler that answered me. She said, "He is in the living room with Danni."

I started to walk towards the door when she said, "Please Starfire don't go in there. Danni has finally gotten some sleep. She needs as much sleep as she can get."

"But why is Robin in there?" I asked very confused.

"He is in there to make sure no one goes in there and wakes her up." She informed me.

She went back to cooking the food that she called French Toast. She soon finished. The Toast of French was delicious. It was even better with the sticky brown syrup.

Robin and Danielle did not join us for breakfast. I saw Skyler preparing a tray of food for them. I wanted to see Robin and I had a feeling that she wouldn't let me because he was with Danielle, so I asked, " may I take the tray to them?"

She nodded as she handed me the tray. "Remember to be quite," she said.

I nodded and walked to the door of the living room. There was a note on the door. It said:

Danielle is sleeping. BE QUITE!

I opened the door as quietly as I could. I walked in and saw no one. I thought for sure that I would have seen Robin in one of the chairs, but I was wrong.

I didn't call out his name for fear of waking Danielle. I needed to be quite so I walked into the room further.

There on the couch was Robin and Danielle. They were snuggled up on the couch. I left something just then that I had never felt before. The best way to describe it is jealousy. I have loved Robin from the moment I met him. Now she come here and steals him away from me. I've been here for a few years and I've never been that close to my dear Robin.

I set the tray down on the table that was next to the couch and shook Robin awake.

"Good morning Robin!" I smiled at him and acted like Danielle was not there. I must have talked to loud because Robin shushed me.

"Morning Star," he said looking at the tray of food that I had brought. "Thanks Star."

"Why is she sleeping on you dear friend Robin?" I asked looking at Robin's beautiful face.

"Because I told her she could. She hasn't slept in weeks. What ever I can do to help her I'll do it. Okay Star." He said quietly but forcefully.

Danielle let out a sort moan and Robin looked down at her then back at me. "You'd better go."

I turned and left. I was not happy at all. I went strait to my room I didn't feel like talking to anyone at all for the rest of the day.

Robin's POV.

Star didn't look too happy as she left the room, but I knew she had to leave or our talking would wake Danielle up.

I looked down at Danielle to see that see was opening her eyes. She looked up at me in shock and I could see the understanding of why I was there run through her eyes. She tried to sit up but I held her down with the arm that I had wrapped around her shoulders.

"Go back to sleep. I'm sorry that Star's and my talking woke you up."

" No. It wasn't your talking that woke me up. It was Starfire's mind."

"Huh?"

" I can kind of read minds." She said looking down.

"So what about Stars mind woke you up?" I asked.

"It's kind of hard to tell but I think it was alone the lines of jealousy. Are you and Star going out or some thing, because that would…"

"NO!" I yelled. I could just visibly see her cringe at the force and tone I had in my voice. I apologized immediately and she relaxed but only a little. 'I hate it when people assume that Star and I are together. She is more like a little sister that I can't get rid of because she's glued to my side.'

"So um, what's it like to read minds?" I asked changing the subject.

" It's hard to explain, but it's like listening to several different radio stations at the same time depending on how many people are around. I've learned to turn it out or even to zone in on just one."

"So what else can you do?"

" Well I can control and manipulate fire and water, and I have healing powers."

"Cool," I said. Then I remembered how this whole conversation got started, "You know you really should try to get some sleep. Unless you're hungry, Star did bring us some food."

"I think I'll go for the food."

"Alright let's see what we have." I said as I lifted my arm from her shoulders so that she could sit up. I took the tray from the table. "Looks like French Toast with syrup, orange juice, milk, water, and eggs."

"Yum, I haven't had this nice of a meal since my eleventh birthday."

"You're kidding right?" I asked not believing my ears.

"Nope not kidding. When we were locked up all we got was a bottle of coppery water and a moldy cheese sandwich and that was it for the day."

We finished our breakfast talking and just joking around. No one bothered us even though they probably heard us laughing. 'This was the best tome I'd ever had. I found it so easy to talk to Danni and I really liked that about her.'

"Wow I haven't laughed like that in years!" she said with a big smile on her face. It was a beautiful smile and for some reason I was glad that I had put it there.

She looked at me. She must have caught that thought.

"I'm guessing that you're to awake to go back to sleep." I said looking in her direction.

"Yeah and it's probably for the better because Skyler and I really need to go shopping for some new clothes," she said looking down at her bloody clothes. We both laughed a little at this.

"Do you want to borrow some clothes so you don't have to go to the mall like that?" I asked looking at the bloodstains on the shirt.

"Okay, thanks," she said as I lead her to my room. I went to my dresser and pulled out a black T-shirt with a dragon on it and a pair of gym shorts. I figured that they would fit her. I turned around so she could have some privacy. I was really tempted to just take a peak but I didn't. When she was finished she tapped me on my shoulder. She looked hot in the clothes I had given her. I could see her long beautiful muscled legs a whole lot better in the shorts then in her baggy jeans. I made sure that I guarded my thoughts because it would be very embarrassing if she had heard them.

We walked down to the kitchen to find a note on the table. It said that all but Star left for the mall in the T-car.

"I guess were on our own."

"Yeah I guess we are," she said uncertainly.

We went to the garage to get my bike. I got on and waited for her to climb one back but she didn't.

"It's okay I'm not going to hurt you or let you get hurt. I didn't hurt you last night and I won't hurt you now," I said hoping that it was enough for her.

IT must have been because she walked over to the bike and swung her leg over.

I started the engine and she hesitantly wrapped her arms around my waist. 'I don't know why but it felt good to have her arms around me.' I thought as we took off towards the mall.
