Chapter 4

All Tears do not Come From Heaven

Salutations, Book!

He loves me! Robin loves me! Bless everything! He calls me his lucky star. We have been spending much of our time on the roof. We even 'made out', I do not understand the meaning of the word. Robin assures me that it means something very good. I am happy that Robin no longer wears his mask around me. His body has relax immensely, expect that large knot keeps occurring every time we do this 'made out' thing. I have ask Robin if he needed medical assistants. Robin always turns red and walks out of the room. I do hope that he is all right. Life is going great. This afternoon we are all celebrating the day I came to Earth. Robin has been very busy and says there is a big surprise for me. I'm hoping for some kosher pickles. Beast Boy gave me one last week, they have a rather distinct taste to them. I shall stop writing now.

SF

She couldn't believe that it had been a year since she had came to Earth. Star was amazed as she re-read parts of her diary and notice how much she had changed. Though there are still many things on Earth that are strange to her, like the proper use of a slinky. To wonder if this was a dream was no longer a question to her. If this wasn't real, Starfire did not want to wake up. Though this morning had been very dull, Robin got up early and was doing a work out down in the gym. Raven was in charge of decoration and Cyborg and Beast Boy had been in the kitchen, probably arguing over meat or tofu. This meant that Star was not allowed to leave her room. She knew it was meant to be a surprise, but why didn't time have to be so slow?

"Hey Star!" Beast Boy walked into her room. She looked at him and smiled.

"Salutations, friend! What brings you here?"

"Robin told me to come and hang out with you."

"Why?"

"He felt guiltily that he hasn't been able to spend time with you. He had to go into town the get a few odd and ends."

The fact was that Robin was planning on heading to the jewelry store at the mall. The other day when he and Star passed by, she noticed a beautiful locket. Boy Wonder rode his bike all the way into the mall, unaware that someone was following him. Over head, Jinx was keeping a close eye, Gizmo had also joined her to help. The two knew that everything would have to go down today, if they wanted to succeed. Robin pulled into the parking lot and placed his helmet on his seat. He was relaxed, once again he was wearing normal clothes. Robin did like the comfort look, after all wearing tights all the time can get to you. He walked casual into the mall and headed towards the store of his choosing. Jinx and Gizmo were right behind him, knowing that if they were seen, Robin would alarm the other Titans. Jinx already had everything planned.

"Okay.", she looked at her dear friend Gizmo, "When Robin comes out to his bike we sneak up on him and you let him have the sleeping gas.", her friend nodded.

"That one.", Robin pointed out to the jeweler. He watched as the lady placed the necklace in a box and handed it over to him. He paid and walked out into the parking lot. It was the last thing he saw, well technically, it was the last thing he saw as himself, loving Starfire.

-Several Hours Later-

He strolled up outside the tower, pondering why? Actually he pondered a lot of whys. He didn't remember anything, but had this urge to get out of these horrid clothes. Why was he wearing them anyway? Robin walked into the tower and up to the living room.

"Where have you been?" Beast Boy snapped at him. "You've been gone for hours." Robin ignored him and headed straight to his room. He had to get out of these clothes. What was wrong with him? Not wearing his uniform, not alone his mask.

"Something's not right?" Cyborg scratched his head.

"Your right. The food sucks." Raven said with out a hint of humor in her voice.

"No! Robin is acting strange. As if..." Cyborg was interrupted by Robin re-entrance into the main room. He never said a word as he made his way to the couch and turned on the TV. Starfire walked over to him, hoping that maybe he would speak with her.

"Robin? Is there anything that you need?" The Boy Wonder glanced at her for a second, before watch the screen. Star refused to be ignored and stood in front of him.

"What?" It was the coldest tone that had ever been heard from Robin's lips and to his Star.

"Friend Robin, what troubles you?"

"The fact that you are blocking the way."

"Please tell me what's wrong."

'Nothing!" She was a little taken back by the tone in his voice, but refuse to given.

"Robin! I demand you tell me at once!"
"I TOLD YOU THAT IT'S NONE OF YOUR BUISNESS!" he got up and shoved her out of the way.

The rest of the team stared at the once happy couple. Starfire sat on the floor with tears forming in her pretty green eyes. She looked at Robin for any remorse, but found none. Did he not love her anymore? She let the tears fall as she got up and ran to her room. Robin maintain a permanent spot on the couch flipping through channels, he didn't care.

"Well", Raven sighed, "so much for a celebration." Using her powers she removed all the decorations she had put up early and placed them in the trash. Cyborg headed for the kitchen to clean the mess, while Beast Boy went down the hallway to check on Star.

"Starfire?" he knocked on the door. He could hear her sobbing, it pained him to hear his once happy friend, like this. It wasn't normal for Starfire to cry, then again, it wasn't normal for Robin to attack her. Something didn't smell right, and for once it wasn't Beast Boy's feet.

An hour or so later, while everyone was up somewhere apart in the tower, Beast Boy took it upon himself to confront Robin. He wasn't going to see Star hurt like that. He found him in the training room fighting a punching bag. Robin never looked up as his so called friend came up.
"Dude we need to talk."

"About what?" Robin gave the bag a hard left hook.

"It's about Star." Robin stopped and glared at him.

"Yeah?"

"Why did you hurt her feeling? She was just worried about you. Did you know that you were gone for five hours. It doesn't take five hours to go to the jeweler's to buy a necklace."

"Something happen."

"Like what." Robin turned from him as if he was embarrassed of something.

"I ran into someone and I realized that...that I don't love her."

"What would make you not love her. You've had your heart set on Starfire for months."

"I guess I just realized that it would never work out. She alien and I'm human."

"So I green and Terra cared for me. Something must of happen."

"Something did."

'What?"

"I fell in love with her."

"Her? Her who?"

"Jinx."

-A Week Later-

I shall never understand what I did to hurt him. What did I do? I thought that he loved me. I am wrong though. Robin has confessed his love for Jinx. I do not understand why he hates me. My heart is hurt every day that he ignores me. Yesterday, we were notified about a break in at a bank. I tried with all my might to fly, but I am too depressed to. He yelled at me afterwards, saying that I am worthless. Maybe I am. My powers do not seem to be functioning correctly. I think it is the depression. Raven has assured me that it is a broken heart that ales me and only time will mend it. It seems that Robin drifts away from us more everyday. I have caught him twice sneaking out at night to see Jinx. I do not enter vine. I wish him nothing ,but happiness. Whether or not it is with me. Beast Boy is worried that he may leave the team and join the hive. This worries me more. I do not want to think of Robin as an enemy. He is my best friend. I love him, so much. I wish he would notice me again. It's like he is blinded by something, or someone. Cyborg and the others are trying to figure that out as we speak. I on the other hand, lay in my room all day. I am becoming more depressed everyday. I do not wish to smile and I am never visited by dreams.

Hopefully, he'll come back to me. I do not wish to change, but soon something will have to. I fear it is for the worse.

Star placed her diary once again at her bed side table and hugged her pillow tight. She felt an emptiness that only Robin could fill. She wished she was back in his arms again, but the boat had already sailed off. She closed her eyes and tried to remember that taste of Robin's kisses. A solidarity tear flowed down her cheek, but she didn't wipe it away. She didn't deserve to have it wiped away. The day was going on far too long and Starfire seemed to be gloomier than ever.

"Star? Are you in there?" she heard Beast Boy knock at her door. "I want to talk to you."

"I wish to be left alone."

"It's about Robin."

"I do not want to hear it!" she screamed. The tears from her eyes seem to flow more now. Was it the fact that her heart was still yearning for Robin's love or jealously.

"Please!" Beast Boy begged her through the door. " I'm worried about you, we all are!"

"Please I wish to be left alone," she cried even harder, "I do not wish to be seen like this!"

"Oh...! Alright...I thought that you would like to know that Robin just quit and is packing up."

"What!" The door flew open revealing a very upset Titan. Starfire ran past her fellow friend and down the hallway. "Please do not be true!" She looked into the room that was his.

Robin stood in the middle and looked around at the room that he used to dwell in. He picked his bag up and swung it around his shoulder. He turned and faced a very upset Tamarian.

"What do you want?" He said cold.

"Robin why are you leaving? Is it because of me?" Starfire wiped another tear away.

"Duh! You won't leave me alone! At least Jinx treats me how I deserve to be treated, like a leader."

"I do not understand?"

"You never do! Your too stupid to comprehend actual knowledge." He yelled at her.

"Stop it Robin!" Beast Boy stood behind Star, "She hasn't done a single thing to you and you treat here like this."

"Hasn't done anything!" Robin went berserk. "She obsessed with me she won't leave me alone!"

"Because I love you Robin!", Starfire screamed. "And you used to love me too."

"That's a bunch of bullshit!"

"It's not", Raven butted in as she appeared along side Cyborg and Beast Boy. "The two of you have been crazy about each other, you asked her to be with you. Now you turn your back and deny it. That's the bull shit right there." Robin looked at all his so-called friends. He looked at the girl with the sad green eyes.

"I don't need all this crap.", he shifted his stance and headed towards the doorway, "and by the way Starfire.", he looked her straight in the eye. "I never loved you!"

All the anger that had built inside Starfire was over raging. She clenched her hands close to her sides, trying to keep it all in. Robin walked past her and headed into the hallway, Star shook her head in shock and without a thought she thrusted her fist straight into the back of his head. Her fist impacted like a sledgehammer, driving Robin into the wall across the hallway, crushing the plaster and denting the metal under layer. His backpack flying from his grasp, Robin allowed his body to go slack and tumbled with the blow, smoothly regaining his feet with an acrobat's grace.

"Is that the best you've got?" he laughed derisively, "No wonder you were always so little help. What a weakling." Robin, the Boy Wonder, spun on his heel, scooped up his dropped pack, and marched off down the hall. Starfire's eyes blazed with hate and anger, before dissolving into tears of heartbreak. She spun and flew into the bathroom, slamming the door behind her.

"Well, that could have gone better," Raven muttered, staring after their departed team leader, "I wonder what's gotten into him?"

"It's that minx Jinx," Cyborg replied, "she's got his head so scrambled he's like my breakfast."

"And we're just yesterday's dinner," Beast Boy added, "leftovers. Yuck!" he trotted over to the minor sanctuary of the heartbroken Starfire, and knocked softly, calling her name quietly.

"Yo, Star, it's alright. We're still your friends, and we're here for you," Cyborg chimed in.

Behind the locked bathroom door, Starfire kneeled, sobbing.

But Robin is the one I want, she thought sadly, and I thought he and I would be happy forever! A sob escaped her throat, and the tears poured anew, like the torrential rains of Noah. Her fists clenched.

But it was all a lie. The thought struck her as the hammer strikes an anvil, leaving the echoing ring of that one realization. He lied to me. Something within Starfire ignited, the fuse to a nuclear holocaust.

He lied. Starfire's tears stopped abruptly, as if her mind had simply turned off the faucet of grief.

He lied! Starfire's burning green eyes deadened, iced over, a mask of hatred filming the once-loving orbs. Her hair crackled with energy so intense it was bleached white as bones in the desert heat. The film over her eyes cracked red, shattered, and eyes of intense blood red gleamed with malice.

HE LIED! The bathroom around Starfire shook, but she took no notice. Ruby red currents of energy crackled around her, gathering, growing, multiplying. Betrayer, traitor, cheater, she screamed in the recesses of her hate-crazed mind.

LIER! The world erupted around Starfire, and disappeared in a blinding flash.
