Chapter 2 - Unexpected Arrival

Starfire knocked on the tower doors and waited. 'This is an awful idea.. I should leave.' Starfire was about to turn around and leave when the door opened.

"Oh my god... Starfire!" Raven yelled in excitement. "We never thought we'd see you again. I mean we knew you were just leaving for training, but we figured you wouldn't return."

"I have returned." Starfire smiled warmly and gave Raven a tight hug. "I have missed you friend Raven.. you look so different."

Raven did indeed change. Her hair was long and she actually smiled now. Her costume was the same, but she also had matured a lot. Her demeanor no longer was cold and vicious, but soothing and happy. It almost seemed as if a weight she had been carrying for years was lifted off of her shoulders.

"Yes. I have learned to control my powers and emotions. I am inlove. I am so happy!" Raven said as she dragged Starfire into the house.

"You and Beastboy are together?" Starfire asked.

"Yes, Last year he finally told me how he felt and I felt the same. Because of him, I can control my emotions better and life is so much easier when you aren't alone." Raven replied.

Starfire followed Raven into the kitchen where Cyborg and Beastboy were arguing about breakfast foods, among other things. Starfire smiled as she realized everyone has changed even if only a little. Beastboy was taller now, also he looked more physically fit. He seemed stronger and looked more like a man than a mere 19 year old boy, but she also noted that he seemed to still be a child at heart. Cyborg also was bigger and taller, his outer robot seemed to change a little due to the changing times. Cyborg also looked more muscular and his face more handsome. Starfire decided to let them know she was here.

"Friend Cyborg! Friend Beastboy!" Starfire exclaimed as she hugged them both like a vise.

"Star!" Cyborg could not believe his eyes. "Star I can't believe you're back. We've missed you so much." Cyborg twirled Starfire around in a giant bear hug.

"Whoa, dude. How have you been?" Beastboy was still in shock, but then managed to smile.

"Of friends. I have been most wonderful. Tamaran was beautiful, but my real home is here with you." Star smiled sweetly. "Where is friend Robin?"

"Oh.." Cyborg started and then looked at the floor, "Robin and Blackfire are still sleeping."

Beastboy and Raven were both looking at the floor and Starfire's smile suddenly dissappeared. "oh.." Was all she could manage.

"We could wake them up. If ya want?" Beast boy started.

"No that will not be neccessary. They should enjoy their slumber. I think I shall go to my room now. "

The others just nodded at her and watched her walk down the hallway.

"Wait!" Cyborg yelled after her, "How about we go to the beach. It is a really hot day. The last day of summer, ya know."

Starfire smiled and nodded her head enthusiastically.

"Great. I'll tell BB and Rae." Cyborg said as he ran to the kitchen. Starfire went on her way to her bedroom. She felt so happy to be back and yet at the same time she was so depressed.

'The beach will be very nice. Most comforting I suppose. What did Cyborg mean when he said Robin and Blackfire were still sleeping? Did he mean... together? Oh my, I hope he did not mean together..' Starfire frowned as she navigated the dark hallways of the tower. 'It is no matter. He must not of thought twice about me. I will be most happy for him and Blackfire. I will not show any pain.'

Starfire went inside her room and slid the door shut.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Wow, Star looked so different. She looked amazing." Cy said to the others.

Raven nodded "Yes she looked so beautiful and yet she seemed very upset."

"Ya think she still loves Robin?" BB asked even though all three already knew the answer.

Cyborg and Raven nodded. "Well, I think ol' Rob is gonna be said that he passed her up."

"He seems happy with Blackfire" Raven commented

"How can anyone be happy with her? She's so rude and mean and even though she's pretty.. she is no where as pretty as you or Starfire." BB said to Raven.

"Well, better get ready for the beach. I told Star we'd take her to cheer her up. We can just leave a note for the two love birds." Cyborg and the remaining titans returned to their rooms to get ready for the beach.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Starfire sat on her bed and looked at her old bedroom. Everything was the same, it was as if she never left. But she had left. She left because she could not bare to see him with someone else. She felt tears forming in her eyes and quickly blinked them away. 'I will not cry. I do not love him anymore. He obviously does not care for me, therefore I shall not care about who he is with or what he does with them.' Starfire sighed. She could not lie to herself, she loved him as much as she did two years ago if not more so now.

Starfire pushed the thought from her mind as she opened a dresser drawer and pulled out her old swim suit. She smiled for she had many good memories of the beach and her friends and Robin...

"Everything will be fine. I will be fine. " Starfire said aloud.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Robin awoke with a jump. He looked around and then tossed the black haired beauty's arm off of him. He sighed as he watched her sleep. 'How did I end up with her? Why did I sleep with her that night? I've always had feelings for Starfire, but for some reason I just gave into temptation and now I will probably never see her again. Why didn't I go after her that night?'

..FlashBack..

"I loved you.." Starfire said barely above a whisper.

Robin turned to see starfire quickly leave the room. He was about to get up when Blackfire pushed him back down and kissed him passionately.

"Don't worry about her, She'll be fine. Let me take care of you.." Blackfire whispered into his ear and then gently sucked on his earlobe.

Robin moaned and knew he should push her off, but as soon as he felt her wetness against him he completely forgot about everything.

He awoke the next morning with a naked blackfire next to him and to find that Starfire was gone.

.. End Flashback..

'God, why am I such an idiot!' Robin mentally kicked himself. He was quickly brought out of his thoughts when Blackfire began to stir. She sat up and smiled at him.

"Good morning Sunshine." Blackfire said sweetly, quickly pulling the sheets up to cover herself after she realized she was naked.

"Mornin'." Robin replied then quickly added "Let's go get some breakfast."

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The two slowly made their way to the kitchen. Blackfire could not keep her hands off of Robin, and Robin desperately tried to make conversation so she would lose interest. She didn't..

After a quick make out session in the hallway, they finally made it to the kitchen. On the table was a note from Cyborg.

Robin and Blackfire,

We went to the beach for some relaxation and a picnic. We'd love some company so feel free to join us.

See ya later,

Cy.

"Blackfire, put the bowls away.." Robin instructed, "We're going to the beach."

A/N: I still do not have any sure way of how I plan to get Robin and Starfire together, but I'm working on it. I already have a few chapters planned out and I am hoping to get them on here this week. I hope you all enjoy this and thank you.

Also, the title of this story As The World Falls Down is taken from the song As the World Falls Down by David Bowie from the movie "Labrynth"... excellent movie. The song is from my favorite scene where Sarah eats the peach and hallucinates she is at the ball where everyone is wearing goblin masks and she is searching for something but she doesnt know what. Then she dances with the Goblin King and it is so freaking romantic. I love it. That part of the movie is sooooooooooo awesome and if there was any way I could incorporate it into this story I would, but... I'm not that cheesy.

Oh, this is my first FF ever. ;D
