Chapter 3

All I Ask of You

It was a lazy day at Titan's Tower. It was like everyone was half asleep. Cyborg was sleepily punching random buttons on his arm, Beast Boy was lying on the Couch, Raven was sipping some herbal tea, Robin was sorting his utility belt, and Starfire was humming a strangely haunting tune. Resting for a moment, Robin listened to the music. Words popped up in his mind to fit the song.

No more talk of darkness,

Forget these wide-eyed fears;

I'm here, nothing can harm you,

My words will warm and calm you.

Let me be your freedom,

Let daylight dry your tears;

I'm here, with you, beside you,

To guard you and to guide you.

All I ask is every waking moment,

Turn my head with talk of summertime.

Say you need me with you now and always;

Promise me that all you say is true,

That's all I ask of you.

The words reminded him of something; something that he was supposed to remember. "Star, is that from 'The Phantom of the Opera?'" he slowly asked.

She started, as though Robin had woken her from a dream. "Wha- oh, um, yes it is, I am supposing."

"Why were you singing it?"

"It just was in my mind at the moment." The conversation clearly at an end, the Tamaranian girl walked off, still humming her tune. Robin went his separate way, thinking hard for the first time that day.

He went into the garage, hopped onto his R-Cycle, and headed for the nearest music store. Reaching it, he looked for the Phantom of the Opera CD. He bought it and returned to the Tower, all the while plotting. He parked the R-Cycle and rushed up to the living room, checking carefully that Starfire wasn't there.

"Hey, guys!" Robin shouted. Everyone in the room looked at him, Raven furrowing her brow. "Can you just clear off for a while? I'd like some privacy in here to do something!"

The three Titans went to their own rooms, thankfully not hesitating. Robin moved the coffee table and couch away from the center of the room, creating a wide space. He then quickly went to his own room and changed into a black tuxedo. Hurrying back to the living room, he unwrapped the CD he had bought and placed it into the CD player. He set it to a certain track and whipped out his communicator. He called Starfire on it, carefully positioning it so that she would not see his tuxedo and the changes to the living room.

"Yes?" Starfire asked, eyeing Robin curiously.

"Hey, Star, could you come into the living room for a second? I need to show you something." Inwardly Robin winced at the lame excuse, but Starfire looked excited.

"Of course! I will be there right away!" She smiled, and the communicator went blank. Robin put it away and waited with a pounding heart. Would it work?

Starfire entered the living room, taking in Robin's tuxedo and the changes. "Why…"

Robin turned on the music, and the haunting melody played once more.

Then say you'll share with me one love, one lifetime;

Let me lead you from you solitude.

Say you need me with you, here beside you,

Anywhere you go let me go too,

Christine, that's all I ask of you.

As if in a dream, they glided together, dancing to the song that expressed all of their emotions without them having to make a sound. They were lost in each other, noticing nothing else.

Anywhere you go let me go too;

Love me, that's all I ask of you.

The song ended as they kissed.
