Sorry it took me a bit longer to update. To be honest, I could have updated Saturday but I just downright didn't feel like it. Anyway, hope you think this chapter was worth the wait…

Chapter 15- Day 2, Hour 2, Paparazzi Problems

The Titan's got off the bus and headed toward the entrance to the park. Robin just hoped they didn't see the same creepy lady as before, but not nearly as much as Starfire did. As they neared the gate they could hear some of the rides getting test runs. They were slightly early but oh well. They could wait a couple minutes.

As it turns out, the gates were opening right as they approached.

"Dude that is so lucky, we don't have to wait!" Beast Boy shrieked happily. Oh how he despised waiting. Of course there were some instances where things were worth waiting for, but very rarely.

"That actually isn't that lucky. Now I don't get to read my book…" Raven replied to Beast Boy's comment, looking rather disappointed. She put her book back in her zip up pocket on her hoody.

"Friends, what shall we go on first on this glorious morning?" Starfire was right. It was a beautiful morning. The sun was casting its rays of light across the lake and the sky was a clear blue one with only a few white and puffy clouds here and there. The rides were gleaming and the air was fresh and clean smelling. There was only a slight breeze and it was not very bothersome. Absolutely beautiful and perfect in every way. Then again, Starfire called every morning, afternoon, evening, and anything else you could think of glorious.

"I don't know… There are lots of things to choose from… Maybe Mantis or Power Tower or…" Beast Boy was cut off by a flashing light, then 10 million more. "Dude, what is that?" He turned to Raven and saw her look of sheer terror. She knew what it was. "Raven?"

"I… don't know! Let's get out of here, now," Raven answered, trying to group the rest of them together to get them out of the area. She knew that those flashes were coming from cameras and she knew that paparazzi were behind those cameras holding microphones and video camcorders. Unfortunately know one was moving, but walking into the crowd to find out what it was.

"Robin! Robin where are you!" Starfire hollered above the noise. She had lost all her friends in the crowd and people were pulling on her left and right. "Raven, Beast Boy, Cyborg?"

"Starfire? That you girl?" Cyborg thought that he had seen Star's red crimson hair. "Star!"

"Dear friend! Where are the others?" Starfire asked Cyborg as he took her hand and started pushing threw the crowd.

"Don't know. We'll just have to find them…" he answered, looking back at her briefly.

Reporters were asking Robin questions here and there and everywhere. The flashing cameras were blinding him and no matter how many times he pushed one out of the way there was another waiting. "Starfire, Beast Boy, Raven, Cyborg, is any one there!" He called out in hope. No one answered. This hadn't happened to them in a long time since the law had been enforced in their city that no one was to hound the young hero's while they were living their personal lives. He had loved that law but now it was not there to protect him from the madness.

"Dude, get away from me! Stop it! Ouch!" came the voice of Beast Boy. He sounded like they were giving him just as much trouble.

"Beast Boy, I'm over here!" Robin called out frantically. He waved his hand into the air wildly. They both pushed towards each other. "We have to find the others and then get on a ride or something, fast!" Beast Boy nodded and made sure to stay close to Robin as they pushed around calling the other Titan's names.

At this point the media had spread over to her, despite her attempt to get away from them. She was now pushing deeper into the crowd to try and find her friends. She figured that was the best thing to do. By now she figured it was more than just the press anyway.

"Raven is that you?" she heard from somewhere near her. She turned and ran into Cyborg and Starfire. "We have located you! Now we only need to find Robin and Beast Boy…" Starfire stated with a look of thought. "Perhaps we shall go to the outskirts of the crowd. That is where they will be trying to get to yes?"

"Good idea Star. Let's get moving girls…" Cyborg took Raven's hand and pushed strongly through the crowd as if they were little girls and he was their big brother. They finally reached the outskirts.

"I don't see them…" Raven stated worriedly. She looked all around until she saw a green hand sticking out of the crowd. "I see Beast Boy!" She began to run toward the hand and pulled it out. Sure enough Beast Boy stumbled out of the crowd followed by Robin. Cyborg and Starfire rushed over and Starfire gave both her friends hugs.

"You are undamaged!" she exclaimed happily.

"Let's get on something… Before they realize we're not in there…" Robin pointed to the mob. All the others shook they're heads.

Combined Chapters!

Chapter 16- Day 2, Hour 2, The Conversation

They had agreed to go on Disaster Transport since it was relevantly close to it and the line was pretty short. Fortunately for Robin it was decided Raven and Beast Boy would go on together and Cy would go by himself so Robin got to go with Star.

When they were seated in the rollercoaster and heading up the hill, the coaster stopped. About a minute later an announcement was made that the coaster was having a technical difficulty so they would be waiting a while. Starfire heard Raven groan in from the front car. She and Robin were seated conveniently in the very back, away from earshot.

"Robin, the paparazzi was my fault…" Starfire cast her eyes downward. She knew it was too dark for Robin to see her face, which was very good because she was blushing like mad. She was so embarrassed.

"What?" Robin asked her, squinting his eyes in confusion.

"Well, when, in, if… In the haunted house yesterday, someone caught the whole, ummm… gunshot thing… on tape," She finally got out. Words couldn't describe how ashamed she felt right now.

"How do you know that?" he questioned, staying calm.

"Well… When I was in the room last night, right before I went to bed I saw it on T.V. I didn't want to tell you because I thought you might be angered," she said sorrowfully. She heard him let out a small bit of laughter. "What is so funny?"

"You thought I would be mad at you. Star, I can't get mad at you, especially for something like that. The people who taped that would have taped it even if you hadn't gotten scared and the media still would have known we were here," Robin stated surely. He knew that it wasn't her fault and could not believe she thought it was.

"I… Thank you…" she said, almost disbelievingly. "Robin, I have always wanted to tell you that-" The ride started back up again and they began to move up the tracks. Starfire was slightly disappointed, but she did believe that everything happened for a reason, whatever that reason may be. They started to descend down the hill and she let out a small smile knowing that soon she would tell Robin exactly how she felt about him…
