Chapter 17-The Four Corners
It had been many long hours but the titans were very close to the four corners. It was about 5:00 AM in the morning. Robin sat up in the bed. He looked around him. Beast Boy and Raven were on the couch, sleeping together. Her head was on his shoulder and his head rested on top of hers. There legs hung off the bed but their hands were entwined together. Cyborg was driving, while Bumblebee slept in the seat next to him, Terra was sleeping on the floor while Speedy and Aqualad slept on separate beds. Robin looked below him. There was the angelic sleeping Starfire. Robin smiled down at her. She looked so peaceful when she slept. It seemed like she was still smiling, even in her sleep. Robin desperately wanted to pull her up next to him and wrap her in his arms but he controlled himself. He was Robin, after all.
So, he just stared at her. A few minutes later, the T.V turned to a stop. Robin sat up and put some jeans on over his boxers. He decided not to put a shirt on...yet. Maybe Star would wake up soon... "Chase the bad thoughts, away!" Robin thought. He quickly walked over to Cyborg to ask where they were but Cyborg was snoring away. Robin sighed. He walked out the T.V door and set foot on a campsite. There were trailers all around him. "I guess were almost at the corners," Robin said silently. There was a fence right next to him so he climbed on top of it and watched the sunrise. It's rays shone on his face as he breathed it all in. Robin heard the door open and to his relief, it was Starfire.
Her hair was just a bit frazzled and she had a light pink blush on her cheeks realizing that he was bare chested. "Um," she began. "I'm sorry," Robin said, "for making you feel uncomfortable." Starfire's eyebrows quirked up. "Uncomfortable?" She asked, "well, not really." This made the both of them turn red. She sat next to him on the fence. "You are my best friend, after all. And you might get to hot during combat practice and might have to take it off or..."
"Or you two will be in a bed and he'll have to take it off!" Speedy shouted from the door. After that, he laughed hysterically and walked back inside. Starfire was about as red as a fire hydrant and Robin was angry beyond belief. "That no good, dirty son of a..." Starfire placed her hand on his lips. Before even Robin knew what was happening, he kissed her hand. Starfire blushed and pulled her hand away. Robin's face went completely red and he fell off the fence. "Robin?" Starfire asked. Robin looked up at her, redder then a tomato. "I'm sorry!" He exclaimed, "I don't know what came over me! I'm such an idiot! No! More of an idiot then a regular idiot! I'm more idiotic then ten idiots combined! I..."
"Robin!" Starfire interrupted. She walked over and held out her hand to help him up. "It is okay! I...might've done the same thing." This time, they heard Terra's voice. "Wanna find out?" She asked. The two of them sighed. Terra giggled and walked back inside. Robin and Starfire looked at each other. A light breeze flew through Starfire's hair. She looked up at Robin for a few more seconds before grabbing his hand. "Come on, let us go!" She said. With hands still laced together the two walked back into the T.V. "Friends Terra and Speedy!" Starfire exclaimed. The two walked over to her. "Although what you said to us was humourous to the two of you, it was not very funny to Robin and I. Please apologize."
Speedy and Terra looked at each other before laughing. "We're so sorry!" Terra said in a babyish voice. "Please forgive us!" Speedy chimed in. Then the two laughed again. "We forgive you!" Starfire exclaimed. Robin sheepishly smiled. After Terra and Speedy calmed down a little bit, Cyborg woke up. "Okay, y'all," he said, "I just needed to rest a little bit before heading back on the road so let's go!" He popped the key into ignition and started the T.V down the roads. Beast Boy's eyes popped open. "Are we there yet?" He tiredly asked. "Almost," Aqualad replied. Beast Boy looked down at the sleeping angel on him. "Isn't she just so beautiful?" He asked. All the titans rolled there eyes and stared at him. "What?" He asked.
Raven then woke up and sat up on the couch, much to Beast Boy's dismay. "I'm gonna get changed," she said. Beast Boy stared down after her. "Don't go getting any pervertish ideas, BB!" Speedy exclaimed. Beast Boy chuckled a bit. "Good one dude," he said, "but I make the greatest jokes ever!" Robin rolled his eyes. "Well, if you make the greatest jokes ever, I would hate to hear a bad joke," Robin said. The titans laughed. "Dude! That's not funny!" Beast Boy retorted.
Soon, the titans all stepped out and where at the four corners. "Arizona, Colorado, New Mexico, and Utah," Aqualad began, "and I'm in all four of them at once!" Indeed, his foot was at the pinpoint of the corners making him in all the four states at once. Aqualad had a big, goofy smile on his face. "Stop being so full of yourself!" Terra told him. Aqualad stuck his tongue out at her. "Anyways," Bumblebee began, "I'm starting to go shopping. Looks like a really cool place here," she said. Cyborg shrugged and followed her. Raven and BB took off in another direction, and Aqualad, Terra and Speedy went together. "Who knows what kinda girls we're gonna meet!" Speedy exclaimed. Terra sighed. What was with him?
Robin and Starfire stood there. "Okay," Robin began, "let's go. What do you wanna do?" Starfire looked around. She saw a little shop with a native-american selling necklaces. She was quite interested in this. "Let us venture over there," she said. Robin followed her down the hill to the shop. The Indian looked at the two of them. "Hello," she said, "would you like to buy one of our turtle necklaces? In our beliefs, these necklaces give you good luck." Starfire clapped her hands. "I would love to buy one!" She exclaimed. The old woman smiled. "Choose whatever one you would like," she said. There were many turtles all made of different stones. "Starfire," Robin began, "I'm gonna look over there. You stay here until I come back, okay?" He asked. Starfire nodded. The old woman looked at her. "Is he your boyfriend? He seems very protective, I see," she said. Starfire shook her head. "Robin is always to protective, but he does love me," she answered. "To shy?" The old woman asked. "That, and our friends will keep ruining the moment," Starfire answered.
The woman shuffled around in a box a little bit before pulling out a pink turtle. "Here," she began, "I think this turtle will fit for you," she said. Starfire put it around her neck. "What luck does this turtle bring?" Starfire asked. "It'll bring you the luck that one day, he will be able to tell you he loves you face to face." Starfire looked down at it. "Do you really think it will work?" Starfire asked. "It worked for me when I was about your age," the woman said. "I cherished it ever since then." She finished. "Oh, then I simply cannot take it!" Starfire exclaimed, taking it off and held it out in her hand.
The old woman made Starfire's hand clasp around the necklace. "I insist that you keep it," the woman said. "I want you and the boy to be happy. Hopefully, the necklace will give you such luck." Starfire smiled softly and put it around her neck once again. "I thank you," Starfire said. The woman nodded. Then, the two noticed Robin coming back. Starfire and the old woman smiled at each other before Starfire ran off to catch up to him. "Good luck," the woman softly said.
