Chapter 3 :Cold Shoulder:
As Cyborg drove home, Robin thought about the things that Dr. Lory had told them. Starfire would need them a lot in the next few weeks. And not just because of her broken wrist.
"We've tested for any STDs and the tests have come up negative, but there is still a chance of pregnancy, we'll have to wait for that. Also there are the mental effects."
Robin's eyes slid over to Starfire who was gazing through the window next to him.
"She may not talk for a while, and that's ok, but if she does encourage her to look you in the eyes. On touching, take your cue from her. Some victims can't stand to be touched afterward and some think that they are poisoned because other's tried to respect their space. She'll let you know."
Robin watched as Starfire slowly traced a pattern on the glass.
"Most of all don't let her get wrapped up in herself. Right now her own head is the most dangerous place for her to be. There are too many destructive thoughts in there right now. Do anything to keep her occupied."
Finally Cyborg pulled into the driveway. Starfire walked into the tower without a word. Robin sighed and looked at his friends.
"We're gonna have to work hard on this." Beastboy said, for once no joking. Raven nodded.
"She's in a lot of pain. She's scared. I can't say I blame her," she stated quietly. Robin and Cyborg agreed silently.
"Robin, you should talk to her. She knows you love her. Raven, you should see if she wants to meditate." Cyborg said. "Beastboy, you and I cook. We will have spaghetti and there will be meat in it." he finished resolutely. Beastboy cringed.
"NOOOOOOO!" he wailed. Robin rolled his eyes and cracked a small smile. He walked away quickly, trying to avoid seeing the upcoming fight. He made his way slowly up the tower finally coming to Starfire's door.
"Starfire? Can I come in?" he asked while knocking on the door. He heard her say something, so he opened the door. Starfire was nowhere in sight, but he could see steam seeping from under her bathroom door. He knocked on the door. "Star? It's me can I talk to you?" He heard another muffled reply and pushed the door open.
"What is it that you require of me?" Starfire called from behind the shower curtain. Robin was taken aback by her cold tone. He stepped into the steaming bathroom.
"I-I wanted to talk to you," he stuttered. It was amazing how even with all of the steam in the room, Starfire was making it cold. Starfire turned off the water and her arm reached out to grab a towel. A moment later she pulled back the curtains and stepped out of the shower with the towel wrapped around her. She glared at him through her drooping bangs.
"I am not all that sure that I would like to speak with you," she said icily. Robin stood, shocked as Starfire brushed past him and started to rummage through her drawers. She pulled out her usual uniform, but Robin pulled them away from her. Starfire glared.
"What was that for?" she asked.
"You won't be fighting anyone with that wrist. You might want to wear something more comfortable." he replied gently. Starfire's eyes widened in realization. She scowled down at the bandage on her right arm.
"Fine." she muttered, pawing further into her drawer. She soon pulled out a T-shirt and some shorts. She disappeared back into the bathroom and soon emerged wearing the clothes.
"Star, what's wrong?" Robin asked. Starfire opened her window. Robin approached her and put his hand over her's. Starfire immediately pulled her hand away from him and stormed to the other side of the room. Robin caught her arm and spun her to face him, unable to stand the silence any longer.
"Why won't you talk to me?" he asked. Starfire glared daggers at him.
"Because I already know what it is you are going to say and do not want to hear it from you." she hissed. Robin blinked.
"What? What are you talking about?" Robin asked.
"You were going to say, 'Starfire, you were stupid to just go out with any person who asks you out. I can't believe that you would do something so utterly brainless. It's your own fault that this happened to you and you deserve it.'" Starfire said finally tearing up. "Well I already know that so you may just save your energy for something more useful."
Robin swiftly brought both of his hands to Starfire's face and turned it to face him. "Starfire, look at me." he said firmly. Starfire refused and kept her eyes on the ground. Robin moved his face closer to her's. "Look at me." he said a bit more forcefully. Finally Starfire's eyes met his.
"All that stuff that you thought that I was about to tell you and what you have apparently been telling yourself is complete and total bull shit." Robin said, emphasizing every word. Starfire looked up at him in shock, but Robin wasn't finished.
"You were not stupid to go out on a date with someone, because that's what you are supposed to do when someone asks you out. This is not your fault and there is no way in hell that you deserve this. You do not deserve this." Robin's eyes burned into her as he said this and Starfire gazed back at him before breaking down completely. She pushed herself into Robin's arms while sobbing uncontrollably.
Robin was again shocked, but readily wound his arms around her waist. Starfire cried harder on his shoulder, unable to keep up her calm demeanor any longer.
"I just d-do not know h-how I can get through this." she sobbed while winding her arms around Robin's neck. "I c-can still see him whenever I c-close my eyes. I can smell him all over m-me."
Robin stroked her damp hair soothingly. "Shh." he whispered. "It's alright. You are alright." Starfire shook her head and pulled back to look into his eyes.
"But Robin, what if he had some disease? What if I get pregnant? Robin, I do not want to have a baby. I am not ready. I... I am scared."
Robin pulled her into his chest once again. He rocked gently to help calm her down. Her sobs soon quieted down to sniffles. Robin pulled away slightly and wiped away her tears lovingly.
"Starfire, all of those things that I said to you that day... I didn't mean them. I-I really do love you. If I hadn't said those things to you maybe—"
He was cut off when Starfire pressed her finger to his lips. "That," she whispered with tears still filling her eyes. "Is complete and total bull shit." Robin was extremely shocked at this but, Starfire just smiled. Robin smiled back.
He pushed a strand of her hair behind her ear, never once breaking eye contact with her. Slowly he drew his face closer to her's until they were barely an inch away. "I love you." Starfire whispered as she moved forward to press her lips to his in an innocent kiss. Starfire smiled against Robin's lips.
Starfire smiled the first full smile in two days. She smiled after the most horrible violation had been done to her. She smiled,
and she meant it.
