Would you belive that I got less reviews for the last chapter than any of the others? It's true. It depressed me slightly, but I decided to keep writing anyways. I'm probably going to start getting up new chapters daily now since I start highschool on September 6th, and stupidly enrolled myself in two Honors classes and Spanish and Yearbook. Extracurricular activities will not be an option for me as I'm going to be really busy studying and doing tons of homework and cooking dinner. And possibly writing on here.

I have this feeling that I'm going to get the same Language Arts teacher that I had in 8th grade, and I'm all "How fun." Don't get me wrong, Mrs. Schmitt is cool and all, she just gives us tons of homework. I'm hoping that enrolling in Honors English will help my writing skills somewhat so that my stories will become better.

PLEASE DON'T BE AFRAID TO GIVE ME CONSTRUCTIVE CRITICISM. IT DOESN'T BOTHER ME AT ALL. It's the flames I have problems with. I got this really rude flame from somebody and almost stopped writing, until my friend told me that they (whoever flamed) was an asshole and to ignore them.

My summer has been slightly boring, and I probably won't be able to write every week like I do now when I start school. So please don't get mad. But do know that I have a story coming out sometime (see my profile for more info), and my fanfiction buddy, Christi, says I've greatly improved (yeah, I gave her a preview). There's no title as of yet, and if you read the summary in my profile, please review for one of my stories and give me your ideas. I might use one of them!

We can no longer respond to our reviewers, and that upsets me greatly, but I will answer any questions you guys have.

Very, very important: Valda says I should've done a cliffy. I just couldn't though. I couldn't leave my reviewers and readers waiting to see if Starfire would die or not, and I couldn't leave myself hanging either. I'm sorry to those of you who agree with her, cuz I totally do too, but I just couldn't. I had the ending of the chapter all mapped out and stuff, and I just couldn't leave ya'll hanging. That was my favorite chapter and I thought, that without the cliffy, it was just fine.

This is probably the longest author's note I've ever written. I'm really sorry about that, but I just had a few things to say. Please review for this chapter. I'm really trying my hardest, and I really love to hear from my readers. My birthday's coming up in sixteen days, and you know what would be an awesome early 14th birthday present? REVIEWS! TONS AND TONS OF REVIEWS! Sorry, a little crazy moment there, but I would really like them.

Chapter Seven: What are we Exactly?

"Well sure! Except nobody's ever broken out of Azkaban before, and he's a murderous, raving, lunatic." Rupert Grint as Ron Weasly in Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban.

This chapter is dedicated to my best friend, Sarah. She's inspired me to write in so many ways, and I don't know what I'd do without her. I hope that wherever our lives take us, we'll always be tight. Thanks, girly!

Starfire sighed contentedly in her sleep and scooched closer to her pillow. She was in that limbo where you're not asleep and you're not awake yet, but just can't seem to open your eyes. She was glad to be rid of the Psions, but losing control of her powers had nearly drained her of her desire to move at all. The sunlight was streaming through the white curtains that hung at her window and played off her mirror, filling the room with it's filtered radiance. Still not satisfied with her postition, Star reached out to pull the pillow closer. As she touched the pillow, she realized that it was definitely not what she thought. Since when did pillows have arms? And she knew that her pillow definitely did not snore. What the hell was going on? Had she woken up in some alternate universe? Mustering up the courage, she rolled over to see Robin passed out next to her with his one of his arms tucked under his head and the other around her waist. Starfire giggled slightly and rested her head on his bare chest trying her hardest not to drift off to sleep again. She watched the curtains sway slightly as the air conditioning swirled over them and listened to Robin's steady breathing, then glanced at the ring which he had once again placed on her finger. He suddenly let out a snort in his sleep and scared her so much she let out a small "Eep!"

"No tofu..." Robin mumbled. "Stuff's gross... Don't bring out the fluffy kitties!... Not the puppy dog pout... No!... Die, cockaroach, die!... Damn it, Bruce!... I don't wanna be no sidekick no more... Try the tofu...it's delicious... No...pretty...pink...flowers... Oooh!... Pie!..." Starfire was now laughing so hard she'd stuffed her fist in her mouth to muffle the noise. "I like pie... I sacraficed Silkie...to the war god..." Starfire stopped laughing. That was so not funny. "Kitten is a bitch..." Okay, so maybe she could forgive him for the Silkie comment. "I wish..." Robin immediately stopped his pointless rambling and started snoring again. Starfire grinned and let sleep overtake her body.

In the gym sat three very worried Titans. Combat practice had started forty-five minutes ago, and there was no sign of their leader or Starfire. Cyborg and Beast Boy had spent the first ten minutes relentlessly torturing Raven with their idiotic antics, until she threatened to hit them each over the head with fifty pound weights. After that, they'd taken to imagining what was holding the missing Titans up. Their hypotheses ranged from sneaking out of the Tower and skipping practice to doing things that I, the author of this story, would prefer not to mention. Beast Boy's latest was that one of their heads had blown up and the other had passed out from shock.

"Or maybe," Raven, being the sensible one, said, "they forgot about practice."

"Psh! Yeah right, Raven!" Cyborg snorted.

"Yeah, I mean seriously." Beast Boy agreed. "Robin would never forget practice. Hey! Where're you goin'?" he called out to Raven's retreating back. She turned to look at the two boys briefly.

"To find them. Where'd you think I was going?" Not waiting for an answer, she turned around and kept walking. She could sense Robin and Starfire's auras around the same area as eachother and decided to start her search in ops. Upon not finding them there, Raven phased through the roof but the two weren't there either. "Damn it! Where the hell are they! Skipping combat practice... Probably necking somewhere." Her powers made the stairwell door slam open, and she retreated down them and made her way down the hall where Starfire and Robin's rooms were situated. The first stop on Raven's little tour was Robin's room. His door was wide open, revealing a neatly made bed and an extremely messy desk. She rolled her eyes at the typicality (a/n: is that even a word?) of this and continued to Starfire's room.

The door to her room was open a slight crack and Raven managed to see the bed through the opening. Situated quite comfortably on Starfire's bed, were Robin and Starfire themselves. Robin was snoring slightly and he had one arm tucked under his head and the other wrapped around Starfire's waist, his fingertips twitching on her stomach. Starfire's head was laying on his chest and her emerald eyes were closed, twitching as she dreamt. As Raven turned to go back to the gym and tell Beast Boy and Cyborg that practice was cancelled on behalf of their leader and his girlfriend deciding to sleep in, something on Starfire's left hand caught her eye. Her hand was resting on Robin's chest just above her head in plain sight of anybody who chose to look into the room. Raven's eyes widened in shock and then narrowed into understanding. So that's why Robin wouldn't come out of his room after Star lost control of her powers. Her first thought was that she could tell Beast Boy and Cyborg, but then they'd blab and Starfire and Robin would be mad. Not the best thing that ever came to her mind. Raven decided to keep quiet about it and walked back to the gym where Beast Boy and Cyborg sat still trying to come up with solutions to why Robin and Starfire were missing.

"Dude, they could be like dead or something." Beast Boy said in awe of his own imagination.

"They're not dead, Beast Boy." Raven replied as she dropped down on the weight bench. "They're...sleeping."

"And you didn't wake them up?" Cyborg bellowed.

"I thought that you guys didn't want to have to go through combat practice today."

"She makes a good point." Beast Boy muttered, earning confused stares from Raven and Cyborg who obviously thought he'd never agree with her.

"Whatever," Raven stood up and opened the door to the hall, "my meditation for this morning is way over-due."

"That girl is way to uptight." Cyborg told Beast Boy as soon as he was sure Raven was out of earshot.

"I heard that, Cyborg."

"Titans East, Speedy speaking."

"Hey, man, can I talk to Bee?" Cyborg said.

"Sorry, Cy. Bee's not here right now. It's just me, Ter, and the twins. Aqualad's on a date with some girl he picked up in a pet store. You probably don't want to know."

"Then can you take a message for me? This is really important."

"Uhhh...I dunno where the paper is around here. Hold on. Hey, Ter! Where's the paper around this joint?"

"Where it always is! On the coffee table, genius!" Terra's muffled reply came from somewhere else on the other line.

"Oh, right. Okay, dude, shoot."

"Tell Bee that I really need to talk to her." Cyborg told Speedy.

"Yeah. Got that from your other ninety messages."

"Just tell her."

"Fine, fine."

"Speedy! Lunch!" Terra hollered in the background.

"Heh, later, dude. Terra made spaghetti." The line went dead before Cyborg could relay the rest of his message. He sighed and hung up the phone, glancing sadly at a picture on the wall.

"This is all my fault."

"Raven?"

Raven sighed and cracked open an eye, keeping her lotus position over the ground. "Yes, Beast Boy?"

"Can...can I meditate with you."

"You...you want to meditate with me?"

"Uh...yeah?" Beast Boy said, rubbing the back of his neck nervously.

"Okay. Here, sit down." Raven instructed him. He sat down on the ground and looked up at her expectantly. She used her powers and created a black disc and it lifted him into the air. "Just clear everything from your mind." Beast Boy nodded and closed his eyes. Raven watched him for a few seconds and then returned to her own meditation. "Azarath...Metrion...Zinthos..."

"Azarath...Metrion...Zinthos..." Beast Boy followed her example. Raven was finding it harder and harder to concentrate with him next to her. Not when there was a question that was annoying the hell out of her.

"Beast Boy?" she whispered.

"Huh?"

"What are we exactly?"

Beast Boy stopped meditating and looked at her. "What d'you mean?" he asked.

"I don't know." Raven said, dropping to the ground and accidentally making Beast Boy's platform disappear so he fell to the ground with a loud thud. She walked over to the edge of the roof and stared out at the bay for a few seconds. "Doesn't it bother you that we've been going out to all these movies but we don't know where we are in our relationship?"

"Well I dunno, Rae. I mean after our second date, I thought of you as..." he trailed off, leaving his thought incomplete.

"As what?"

"No, never mind. It's not really important."

"As your girlfriend, Beast Boy?" Raven asked, turning to face him. Beast Boy stared at her for a few seconds before responding.

"Sorta." he mumbled, turning as red as someone that was green could. "I understand if you don't wanna be or anything. It's cool." He turned to leave, his head hung low in sadness.

"Beast Boy, I didn't say no, did I?" Raven called out, a true smile plastered on her face. Beast Boy ran up to her and threw his arms around her neck out of pure joy.

"Thanks, Rae."

"And you'd better stick up for me the next time Cyborg insults me."

"You got it."
