"So where do you wanna go?" asked Raven with her monotone voice, but really her excitement was hidden under hood.
"Hmm... Let us look for clothes." Starfire said.
"Which store?"
"We shall.... 'wing it' as you say." Starfire grabbed Ravens wrist and pulled her to the nearest store to try look at clothes. 'What the hell?' Raven though as she tried to control her urge to take Starfire into her arms. 'Do I like Starfire?' Raven asked herself as she looked at the beautiful red head. Hours later Raven and Starfire came out of the store carrying Starfire's merchandise. They were walking towards another store and Starfire noticed a particular clothing store. She dragged Raven into the dressing room of the store. "Wait here Raven I shall be return shortly with clothes..." Raven sighed and sat down on the seat in the dressing room. Shortly after Starfire came in the room and Raven was about to leave when Starfire placed her hand on Raven's shoulder.
"Umm... Do you want me to watch you change or something?" Raven said. 'Oh god what the hell did I just say? I mean I wouldn't mind watching her change but... control yourself Raven.'
"Raven these clothes are not for me to try on..." then realization hit Raven like a 18 wheeler going 100 miles per hour.
"Two words Starfire... hell no..." Raven was going to come out of the dressing room but Starfire blocked her only way out.
"Please Raven..." Starfire put on the best puppy dog look she could and Raven could not help give in to the red heads wish.
"Fine... I'll model for you..." Starfire squealed and gave Raven a hug. Instead of pushing the girl away like she normally did, Raven hugged Starfire back and whispered in her ear. "Go before I change my mind..." Starfire felt a shiver run down her spine and then the shiver was replaced. She could feel her whole body start to heat up. Without saying another word Starfire broke from Raven's embrace quickly got out of the cubicle and closed the door. 'What just went on?' Raven and Starfire both thought.
'Maybe I scared her off when I hugged her back.... did she really think that after all the times she hugged ME, I wouldn't hug HER back? WHY DID I HUG HER ANYWAY?' Raven thought about it and told her self that wasn't possible.
'Why did my heart suddenly beat faster and my whole body heat up when Raven held me? I know I have been thinking about her a lot lately, maybe it there is a connection between my thoughts and the feelings she gives me.' Starfire thought as she pranced around the store, trying to find more clothes for Raven to try on. Starfire carried some more clothes with her and knocked on the dressing room door. Raven came out of the cubicle wearing a black Tank top and a black leather skirt. 'Raven really is a sight to see...' Starfire thought as she saw Raven's clothing. She was broken out of her daze when Raven waved her hand in front of Starfire's face. Raven tried on more clothes and Starfire actually got her to buy some of the things she tried on.
Hours later they sat in the food court trying to decide what to eat and later decided to eat at a Teriyaki place. Raven noticed that Starfire was staring off to space again and was wondering why Stafire kept dozing off . She snapped her fingers in front of Starfire's face.
"What are you thinking about?" Raven asked her friend. 'She's acting all spacey... wonder what or better yet who she's thinking about?'
"Ummm..." Starfire said. 'I cannot tell her I am thinking of her... could it be that I have feelings for my dear friend Raven? But then it wouldn't be right...' Starfire told herself.
"You know you look cute when you get all spacey..." Raven said as she reached out for Starfires face and tucked Starfire's red locks behind her ear. Starfire blushed and Raven smiled at her. "Where do you wanna go now?" Starfire pulled her off her seat.
"Let's walk around for now..." Raven nodded her head at the red head. Starfire stopped and looked towards Raven, then she lifted Raven's hood off her head. "You look much better like this."Starfire said as she eyed Ravens beautiful face. Starfire brought her hand up to Raven's face and caressed her cheek, she let her hand trail down to Ravens shoulder, then she hooked her arm onto Raven's and walked around the mall. 'I wonder why she is being so nice to me... she has showed me many smiles today... she truly does look better when she smiles.' Starfire thought. Raven used her powers to carry their merchandise. She was finding it very difficult to do so because of her feelings for a certain green eyed beauty that clung to her arm.
"Starfire!" Beast boy yelled out. Cyborg, Robin, and Beast boy began to approach them. They exchanged greetings and the boys asked where the girls were going to next.
"We are on our way back to the tower..." Starfire answered and Raven quirked an eyebrow at her friend. 'I know she didn't want to go back to the tower yet...' Raven started to think about Starfires actions then Starfire suddenly grabbed her hand and dragged her out of the mall. They reached the tower and dropped their bags in Starfire's room.
"Could you tell me what that was about?" Raven said.
"What was what about?"
"Your avoiding the boys aren't you? Ever since the other day I haven't seen you spend any time with any one of them."
"I am not avoiding the boys... just Robin."
"Oh... why is that?"
"He... told me he likes me." Raven could feel her blood boil. She tried to maintain her composure and succeeded. 'Am I jealous? Yes... but why? Sure she's beautiful, funny, sweet, caring, but other than that...' Raven thought to her self.
"Ok...and what exactly happened?"
"I went to him seeking advice." Raven urged Starfire to continue. "I told him I have been thinking of someone a lot and I asked him what I should do but then he tried to touch me and I pushed him away and he asked me what was wrong. I told him that I do not like him that way... he got upset and stormed out of the room... he is very angry with me..."
"That's why you've been avoiding him?" Starfire nodded and was thankful Raven never asked who has been in her thoughts all the time. The person that's been invading her thoughts every se.
"What shall I do?"
"Give him some time... you know Robin is so used to having things his way." Raven said and Starfire nodded. 'So she's been thinking about someone... a lot... wonder who he is.' Raven thought as the feeling of jealousy came over her.
------------------------------
Starfire was on her way to the kitchen when she saw Robin there. She was debating whether or not to talk to him or not. "Robin I wish to talk to you." Starfire said. Robin looked up at her. "I am sorry about what happened and I wish you would not be so angry with me."
"Starfire... I'm sorry for acting the way I did. I should have thought about it before I made a move on you..." Robin said.
"So you are not mad at me anymore?" Starfire asked Robin. The reply she got was a hug form the boy wonder.
"The person you've been thinking of... who is he?" Robin asked as he and Starfire broke apart.
"I wish to know what exactly I feel for this person before I come out with their name." Robin nodded and Starfire left the kitchen. 'I must find out what I really do feel for this person...' Starfire thought as she approached Raven's room. She knocked on the door and the door opened suddenly opened for her.
"Hello Raven." Starfire said as she entered the room. Raven was lying down on her bed, looking up at the ceiling. She motioned for Starfire to sit next to her. Starfire jumped on the bed and sat next to Raven.
"Everything ok between you and the bird boy?" Starfire nodded as she lied down next to Raven. Starfire turned to see Raven still looking at the ceiling. She moved closer to Raven and placed her hand on Raven's stomach and was surprised that Raven didn't move away from her touch, instead Raven started to stroke her hand. Starfire used her other hand to play with Raven's hair.
"What are you thinking of?" Starfire asked. 'What do I really feel for you Starfire? I care about you there's no doubt in that.' Raven thought about the times she was distracted because her team mate would be in trouble. 'But do I care for you as a friend or more? I know I shouldn't even be thinking about you like that but... you just make it so easy. ' she was distracted form her thoughts as Starfire began to trace circles on her stomach. She turned to face Starfire. The girls looked into each other's eyes, searching for the answers to the questions that plagued them both. 'Why is she always on my mind? What do I really feel about her?' these questions continued to invade their minds and as they stayed gazing into each other's eyes and in that instant, their questions were answered.
