Author's Note: Ahahah! I'm back…with another chappie! Since I left you with a cliffhanger, I figured I had to continue right away (I actually wanted to continue the BBTerraRaven triangle). So, last time, Robin got caught, remember? So, he's got to face the music in this chappie! Is it gonna end RobinStarfire style or in a lifelong enmity? Read on! Oh, and millions of thanks to everyone who reviewed, especially Terra Logan, for your nice reviews, you guys rock!
Starfire looked at the letter he was holding, and stifled a little scream. She ran to him, and snatched the letter away in a totally non-Star way. Robin was too stunned to do anything. She looked up at him, hurt and disappointment written in her eyes. "Friend, tell me what makes you stoop so low as to enter my room, read my private things and snoop around," she said in a broken voice.
Robin stammered, "St…Star…I'm…sor…sorry, really I am," he said lamely. "I didn't mean to, just that I…" He never got a chance to finish. Starfire screamed at him, "You are sorry! That doesn't make any difference now! You have read my private letter, entered my room and you expect me to forgive you? Friend, you must be joking!" she yelled, her eyes blazing. "You betray my trust by entering my privacy and actually poking around my things and you say sorry?" Robin looked shocked. The pit of shame in his stomach deepened even more. She turned away, tears brimming in her eyes. "There is nothing more to say. You have made me very disappointed, I thought we were best friends, yet you betray our trust by snooping in my room. That just proves that you do not trust me, and that you have no respect for my feelings and privacy."
That was too much for Robin. He grabbed her hand. "No, really I care…" She wrenched her hand away. "No," she said, breathing deeply. " It is enough that you actually enter my room, but you have also read my private letter, and you have discovered my embarrassing secret," she said, giving a little sob. "I must go, what happened just now has made our lives different forever. You will not like some strange alien girl in love with you." With that, she turned to exit the room.
Robin stood still for a moment, as the impact of those words hit him. He grabbed her hand again. "Starfire, wait!" She turned to look up at him again. "What more do you desire, Robin? You have pried into my most secret of secrets, and now you wish to mock me? I cannot tolerate this!" She tried to pull away, but he was stronger. "Listen to me," he said, pulling her onto the bed with him. She looked up at him, her cheeks tear stained, her emerald eyes puffy and swollen.
"Star, I honestly didn't mean to intrude on your privacy, and read that letter. It's because, I wanted to know whether you care for me, as much as I care for you," he said, his eyes cast down. She gave another sniff. "Why did you not just ask me?" she asked. "Instead of reading my letter and acting like a common snooper?" He gave a sad shrug. '"Not my style, and I was too afraid." He stood up. "Well, you know now. Since I have betrayed your trust, you need not speak to me any more. You can punish me in whatever way you want, I have fully earned it." His voice was determined, but his eyes sad.
She stood up as well. "Since it is the case, I will not punish you this time, but you must answer me one thing," she said, smiling slightly. "What?" he asked, his heart swelling with relief that she did not hate him. "Do you really, truly care for me?" she asked, her voice tentative. He smiled. "Star, there's no one else in the world I feel for as much as I feel for you." As he leaned in…
