11. I Can’t Deal With Your Emotions

Thanks for all the reviews. I really really appreciate them. Sorry for not updating any sooner.

School is getting to me again! Test. Just took the math test today and I think I didn't do so good so after school tutorials for me. No! So expect for me updating slowly but the reviews really motivate me to write. Review after you read this chapter.

I keep forgetting these disclaimers so …

I DON'T own the Teen Titans…if I did I would make Red X appear more than two episodes because he deserves at least a season to himself!

Chapter 11

"I Can't Deal With Your Emotions"

---November 11---

It was November 11th - a Saturday. People were outside enjoying themselves. Others were hanging out with their family or friends, but for the Titans it was just another ordinary day.

Raven peered over her book to see Kelsey and Starfire watching TV. Fortunately when Terra attacked it was one of the few things that didn't get broken. Kelsey and Starfire were watching a program showing the top 100 songs of the country. So far, it was on number 63. Starfire and Kelsey were sitting quietly on the couch. Raven thought Starfire was really sweet since she was trying to make friends with Robin's girlfriend, even though she still loved him. Kelsey and Starfire were staring at the television but not actually watching the show. They were both too deep in their thoughts to care what was playing.

Raven started observing the living room. Some of the counters from the kitchen were broken in half, the walls had holes in them, two of the giant glass windows were broken, and the list goes on. Raven sighed thinking they would actually have to clean this mess up since she was still weak and couldn't use a lot of her magic. Even she doesn't like cleaning messes that she didn't cause but the Titans can't leave the living room dirty forever. Her mind started wondering on the boy wonder. Robin was going to see if Cyborg could come back home today.

'Stupid Boy Wonder.' She thought as she turned her attention back to her book. Robin and Raven weren't at speaking terms since the argument they had last night. It was supposed to be just an argument about her 'attitude' on the way home from finding Starfire on the street but the argument led to some other things. She had mentioned Starfire, he had mentioned Beast Boy in the argument, and those were very touchy subjects.

---Flashback---

Raven and Robin walked in the training room to talk. Raven knew perfectly well what it was going to be about. Robin seemed—oh, how to say it—ticked off. Raven scanned the room to see if there were any changes. Nope nothing had changed since the time Cyborg made some improvements, which was a few months ago except for the fact that the room was severely damaged. Raven knew it was from the time Terra attacked them, which was a day ago. Raven stared at her masked leader and saw that he was glaring at her. She decided to act as if she didn't notice and she knew perfectly well that it was just going to make him even more frustrated.

"Raven, what's up with you?" Robin asked beyond irritated. Even though she could not see his eyes, she knew that they were staring intensely at her. It didn't take her long to respond with a smart-ass comment.

"I don't know, you tell me. I think I'm perfectly fine." She told him monotonously but it seemed that she said teasingly which, she sort of was. The angry expression he gave her was priceless. She liked to annoy him as well but not like Cyborg and Beast Boy, she did it without pranks or jokes. Another thing was, unlike them, Raven knew him better so she knew what would irritate him right away.

Robin saw beneath her emotionless mask that she was enjoying his anger. Raven was like a sister to him and they knew a lot about each other but like almost all sisters they like irritating their siblings. "What the hell is up with your damn attitude on the way home?" He asked more calmly, if that was possible. Raven stood there thinking why they were here in the first place.

On the way home, all she said was that she didn't want to talk to him but maybe it came out a little harsh. Scratch that it came out really harsh and she said a few rude comments…if you count 20 a few. Besides that, that was all. No big deal, right?

"You were annoying me." She stated as if that was enough for answer. This was getting really old, real fast. Raven just wanted to go back and read her book or drink some herbal tea. Anything but this. Like anyone who knew Robin would expect, he didn't take that as an answer.

"How was I annoying you?" Robin questioned. 'And you're supposed to be a good detective.' Raven thought as she saw Robin waiting for her to answer his question.

"Do I need to explain every single little thing to you?" Raven said letting some anger show. Nothing happened in response, and that was of course a relief. It wasn't a lot of anger but to Raven you can never be too careful. Robin pressed his lips together in anger. For him, this day was getting worse by the second.

"Raven, all I want to know is what I did." He told her again trying not to get mad at the girl. Raven sighed and put her blue hood up. Robin knew that something was going to make her 'feel' something. Every time she would put her blue hood up it meant that she was about to say or she felt something was going to make her happy, sad, angry etc.

"Okay let me start over a year ago. That's when you made your first mistake." Raven pointed out. Robin had a shocked expression mixed with anger.

"And you say something now!" Robin exclaimed, exasperatedly. He waited for her to tell him why she hadn't mentioned this earlier. When you make a mistake, you do not tell the person a year later 'Oh, you made your first mistake over a year ago'.

"No, because you messed up really bad this time." She said stiffly. Robin gave her a confused look and Raven let out an aggravated sigh and stared at the floor. "If making Starfire leave wasn't bad enough." She said under her breath. Her eyes widened as she noticed that she had mentioned Starfire's name. She slowly tilted her head up to see if Robin heard what she had said.

Robin stared at her with a really shock expression. She could tell that Robin was staring at her wide eye at what she had just mentioned. 'He obviously heard me.' Raven did not mean to slip that out but that's why she was annoy by him. She saw Starfire crying her heart out for her troubles.

'Nobody deserves that… especially her.' Raven thought as she remembered what had happened earlier. She was the sweetest person anyone could ever meet. Why would anyone want to hurt her so bad?

"How did I make her leave?"

"With your girlfriend." Raven spat. She thought if she should go on or not. 'He has to know.' A voice in her head said. 'Let him find out.' Another voice said. Should she, or should she not?

Robin opened his mouth to say something but nothing came out. What was there for him to say? Raven glared at him as she continued talking. "Your idiot self couldn't see that there was one girl who would always worried when you get into your obsession. Starfire gets upset if you weren't happy and she would always want the best for you!" Raven seemed to touch a nerve but she didn't care. It was the truth and he had to know. She felt a bit relieved since she had told him but she felt that something bad was about to happen. Robin was speechless but thought why she was giving him advice in the first place. He didn't ask for it and…

"You're telling me this when clearly you have trouble of your own." Robin growled.

"What?"

"Beast Boy." He stated angrily.

Ouch. He had gotten her there.

Raven's eyes widened as he mentioned his name. Robin stared at the girl fully knowing that he trapped her in her own game. "You obviously love him but you're in damn denial as well. He practically worries about you every time you're hurt. You almost made him have a nervous break down by letting him worry if you were okay during the whole Trigon thing." Robin and Raven glared at each other for a few moments. The lights flickered on and off and a light bulb eventually exploded.

"So we have another thing in common." Raven paused. Both thinking they were indeed in the same situation. "We're both cold hearted." Robin stared at her for a while thinking at what she had said. It may have sounded harsh but to them it was the true. He stared at her for one last time before he eventually left. Raven sighed with one thing in her mind.

Were they this cold hearted? Was she this cold hearted?

------------------

Raven stared her other two teammates once again. They seemed to be out of their thoughts. Starfire was fully paying attention to the TV, which was currently on number 56 playing the song Because of You by Kelly Clarkson. She seemed to be interested in the lyrics. Raven heard Starfire singing mentally, all of sudden.

'Now I cry in the middle of the night for the same damn thing.'

Starfire sang in her head. Raven stared at her. This was the first time in a long time that Raven was able to hear her sing and be able to read her mind. Starfire let her guard down or was it because of something else? It didn't matter. All it matters was that Starfire was cheering herself up by singing. Raven gave a weak smiled that didn't go unnoticed by Kelsey.

"What are you smiling about?" She asked as she stood up in front of the girl. Raven stared at the blonde girl. Starfire turned her attention to the two girls as soon as she heard Kelsey's voice. "I didn't say anything funny and there isn't anything to laugh about." Kelsey knew perfectly well or she had an idea on why Raven smiled. Well Raven wasn't the only Telepathic person in the tower but of course the Titans don't know that.

Kelsey could freely read there minds but Robin and Raven were getting harder, Beast Boy and Cyborg block of all the important stuff, and Starfire blocks her all the time. So her power was getting useless but just a few moments ago, Starfire was singing in her head. She had to tell him, her boss, that she was able to read her mind for just one second. It may have not been much but her boss wanted her to report on anything that happens.

"You do know who you are talking to." Raven told her as she flipped a page of her book and continued reading. Kelsey faked a smile and tried to resist the urge of rolling her eyes at Raven. She had to keep her 'good' act or the plan would fail.

"No duh!" Raven stared at her with not emotion. She at times irritated her but she did get along with her well. Ever since Starfire came, she had been more distant. Even before Starfire came, she would sometimes go to her room to do who knows what. Beast Boy would sometimes say that he hears people talking but the Titans would ignore him. Thinking it probably was Robin and Kelsey muttering stupid sweet nothings to one another.

Kelsey sighed and decided to go to her room since Raven was starting to get to her nerves by…just being herself. 'Just a few more months and you won't have to deal with her again.' She thought.

Raven watched her go and then turned her attention back to her book. 'Maybe Beast Boy wasn't crazy.' Raven sighed and tried to pay attention to her book.

Starfire had noticed that Raven was smiling but she didn't have a clue why. She just shrugged the feeling off and continued watching the television that was currently playing 'Someone Like Me' by Atomic Kitten.

------With the Boy Blunder--------

Robin walked inside the hospital and towards the counter. A woman, who looked to be in her forty's, peered over the monitor and eyed Robin.

"Robin?" She questioned. Robin nodded in response. She pulled out a stack of papers and laid them on her desk. A few strands of her light brown hair were covering her face. "Here to see…" She went through papers and eventually pulled one out of the stack. "Cyborg?" She questioned making sure that the information was correct. Robin nodded once again. The woman's chocolate brown eyes stared at him, which cause Robin to feel uncomfortable. "He is now in room 315." She eventually said as she placed the paper back to the stack. Robin thanked the woman and ran off quickly as possible to get away from the woman. He took the elevator and fortunately, for him he was the only one on the elevator. After three minutes of the annoying elevator music, he got off and went to the room where Cyborg was.

"Room 313…314…315." He slowly opened the door to see Cyborg watching the TV that was on the upper left corner.

"Hey." Robin said as he entered the room and closed the door behind him. Cyborg turned his attention away from the television and smiled.

"What's up?" Robin pulled out a chair, took a seat next to him, and watched whatever he was watching on TV. "So any leads?" Cyborg asked as the television showed 50 Cent's latest video. Robin turned his attention to him and shook his head.

"I haven't actually done anything…yet." He truthfully told him. Cyborg's eyes widen at what he said. Robin stared at him wondering what could be so shocking.

"You not obsessing that's—that's like a miracle!" Cyborg shouted loudly in disbelief. Robin glared at him. "No offence but, that ain't like you." Robin sighed and slumped further down his chair. Right now, he would be visiting Cyborg and telling him about his leads and things like that but how could he? He was too busy thinking of what happened last night to be concentrating on where Terra could be or anything about Slade. Cyborg observed him for a moment. Robin seemed unlike himself in way and he wanted to know what was wrong.

"What happened?" He questioned. Robin responded with a 'nothing' as Cyborg suspected. "I may be no Kelsey or Raven but you can tell me what's wrong." He said with concern. Robin took notice that he didn't say Starfire like he use to about a year ago but didn't say anything. I guess everyone knew that their relationship wasn't the same anymore.

"I really can't because you'll probably kill me." Robin said jokingly as stared at the floor as if finding sudden interest in it. What he said wasn't entirely a joke. Anything that involved Starfire, Cyborg would always be interested. He treated her like a little sister just as he did with Raven. Just as he is, Cyborg is very protective of her. Cyborg stared at him for a moment already knowing whom it is about.

"Starfire?" He questioned him for a moment and they both were silent. Speed of Sound by Coldplay was playing on the television. Eventually Robin nodded in response. Cyborg saw that he obviously didn't want to talk about it.

"Cyborg." Robin said as he still stared at the floor unable to look at him.

"Yeah." Cyborg stared at his friend.

"Starfire she—and I—we talked about…"Robin hesitated. "What happened and what caused her to leave." Cyborg knew this what was going through his mind all day.

"What did she say?" Cyborg asked his leader. He knew why she left but Robin needed to find out by himself or for him to ask Starfire. Robin was still staring at the floor unable to tell him. It was hard for him and it brought up things that he was taught not to feel.

Cyborg sighed and knew that he wasn't able to tell him. He decided to change the subject. Cyborg thought back to the Titans, Bee, and then his 'baby'…

"How the hell did you get here?" Cyborg asked all of sudden. Robin was glad that Cyborg changed the subject but as soon as he remembered that he brought his car, he would really kill him now. "Well?" He asked impatiently. Robin turned his attention to him trying to figure out how to tell him.

"Uh…T-Car." Robin said uneasily. Cyborg's mouth dropped open.

"My baby!" He shouted loudly that probably the whole building would hear. "You took my baby!" Robin slowly nodded thinking he was lucky that Cyborg was laying on the bed instead of standing up. "For sure I'm going to drive on our way back home." Cyborg stood up and looked down at Robin. Robin gulped. 'I should probably run.' Robin thought as stood up and looked up at his friend.

"I didn't crash or anything." Robin said and hoped it will let him off. Cyborg shook his head.

"I don't give a damn. It's my car!" He said a bit childishly. Robin rolled his eyes behind his mask. A gift card on the nightstand by the bed caught his attention. It had Beast Boy's name written in it. Cyborg saw him staring at something, followed his gaze, and frowned. They both forgot the argument they were having.

"Where's the little grass stain?" Cyborg asked Robin, hoping Beast Boy decided against the idea of leaving. Robin shrugged unable to answer him, which cause Cyborg to frown even more. "He actually left." He turned his attention to the outside of the window that showed little kids playing. "How did you found out?" Cyborg asked him as he watched two kids play football.

"Raven." He stated. Cyborg sighed and turned his attention back to the television. The Television was showing a different thing now, probably he pressed a button when he had stood up from the bed. The channel was showing something involving the Teen Titans and he of course was interested on what they had to say. Robin followed Cyborg's gaze. 'Another report.' He thought as he took a seat and Cyborg sat on his bed.

------TV------

"Our heroes, the Titans, have helped us through the good and bad. Back then…" A woman with short straight black hair pointed to the background and showed the Titans. An image with the original titans showed. "And now." The background showed a group picture that they had taken two weeks before Starfire and Terra joined again. "Our current resources say that the Titan Starfire has joined once again and so has the Titan Terra." A picture of Starfire and Terra appeared in the background.

----

"Want me to turn it off?" Cyborg asked Robin as held the remote ready to turn it off. Robin turned around and shook his head. "Okay, well let's see what they have to say."

----------TV Yet Again-------

"The latest pictures we have of the Titans are ones showing Beast Boy and Starfire walking with some person that we could not identify. We are for sure that he is not in the team so we assume he is the two titans close friend." The television showed pictures of Beast Boy, Starfire, and a person walking toward the Tower in the rain. "One photographer was lucky enough to take some pictures but he did not get to hear anything they were discussing about. We think that is currently Starfire's newest boy---"

The television screen went black.

---

Cyborg laid the remote next to him. "They're gonna assume stuff." He stated not wanting to hear any rumours. He laughed to himself. Who was he going to fool? He just didn't want Robin to hear what the woman was going to say even though Starfire had gone through it. He just couldn't see another friend hurt as much as she does.

Robin sighed knowing that the pictures were taken last night. The person was obviously the boy from yesterday. Robin took noticed that Starfire hasn't mentioned his name yet. Then he thought about what the reporter was going to say. She was going to say 'boyfriend' and he knew it. 'Who knows? Maybe he could be.' Robin thought as he stared at the black screen of the television.

"I wonder how the team would be if Starfire never left." Cyborg said as he imagined the results himself. Robin thought about for a moment. 'She wouldn't have left if she didn't love me.' He told himself. He didn't start wondering on 'what would happen if she never left' he started wondering on 'what if I told her that I loved her'. It wouldn't be the first time.

"Are you sure you can come home?" Robin asked Cyborg, trying to get rid of his thoughts. Cyborg nodded as soon as he was back to reality from his 'what if' moment.

"Yeah. I healed faster than they said." Cyborg reassured him. Robin and Cyborg stood up. "Besides, I'm bored in here." Robin smiled and they were both going to head towards the front but…

"Wait! I gotta get my gift cards and the roses from Bee." He said and ran to gather his stuff. After about a few seconds they started heading towards the counter where they were going to sign some papers and stuff. 'Great I have to go talk to the woman again.' Robin thought as he and Cyborg went inside the elevator.

-------

"Starfire?" A female voice called out that snapped Starfire out of her thoughts. Starfire turned around to see Raven with a worried look. Not the emotionless look she would always had, but a look that actually showed concern. Raven was sitting on the black armchair with a book in her hands, staring at her. "Are you okay?" She asked in concern as she set her book at a table next to her. 'Did she find out what happened?' Starfire questioned herself before she answered.

"Never better." Starfire said with sarcasms. Raven stared at her for a moment unsure what of what to do next. She knew that something was bothering her friend - but Starfire wasn't willing to tell her. Raven sighed. This was somewhat new to her. She didn't know how to comfort people.

Starfire saw that she was having a mental battle with herself and decided to turn back around and stare out of the giant glass windows. Raven turned her attention to what she was staring. Jump City looked beautiful with the suns rays beaming around it.

"Starfire, what happened to you that made you change?" Raven asked all of sudden. The side of asking her what was wrong had beaten the side of it's none of your business. 'The second time I've been asked that.' Starfire thought as she watched the busy streets of Jump City.

"Ask Robin." She stated coldly, not removing her attention from the city. "He knows." Raven stared at her teammate. Something for sure had happened since the way she answered was unlike her. 'I'll be sure to ask.' Raven thought as she wondered on the possibilities on what happened between the two. Starfire stared at the city remembering all the good times. The time when the titans were playing volleyball, they went to the pizza place, and when they had taken the group photo…

---Flashback---

It was one of the few days that the Titans didn't have any low villains attacking. A free day and they decided to spend it at the park. The sky was clear and showed no sign that it was going to rain just what they needed no worries. Raven sat under a tree so it can block the suns hot rays. She was reading a book like she would always do when she had a free day. Beast Boy ran up to her and saw her reading her book. He wondered why would she always read a book instead of enjoy herself but shook the thought away.

"Dudes, lets a take a pic with my new camera." Beast Boy announced as he held out a digital camera that he had gotten for his birthday. Raven turned her attention away from her book and onto him.

"No. You can count me out." She simply stated as turned her attention back to her book.

"Come one, Rae. Just one lousy picture and you're done." Beast Boy pleaded as he knelt in front of her with his hands clasp together. She shook her head as she kept reading her book. Beast Boy frowned. "I'll-Ill," He thought of something that would make her take a picture. A thought came to him and he smiled mischievously. Raven turned to look at him and saw the smile he had plastered on his face. 'This isn't good.' She thought as she watched him. "I'll give you a kiss if you don't." Raven's eyes widened but quickly recovered.

"Fine." She said as she laid her book next to her and stood up. Beast Boy stood up as well and turned his attention to the other titans who where sitting on a blanket that they laid so they didn't have to sit on the grass.

Cyborg turned the volume of the radio next to him down. "Man, you've taken a lot pictures with your camera already!" Cyborg shouted at him.

"No I haven't!" Beast Boy protested. Cyborg gave him a disbelieving look. Beast Boy sheepishly smiled. "Fine, but not a lot. Come on Cy!" Cyborg sighed and turned off his radio.

"Fine but this is the last time you take a picture with your camera today." Beast Boy nodded in response. 'Yeah right.' He thought as he saw Cyborg stand up and walked towards Raven who was waiting impatiently for him to take the picture. He then looked at Starfire hoping she would want to.

"That would be wonderful!" She said excitedly. Beast Boy smiled.

"What about you, Rob?" Beast Boy asked thinking he would say 'yes'. Robin shook his head.

"I don't like taking pictures." He told him. Beast Boy frowned but an idea came to him.

"Star, don't ya think that taking a group picture would be fun?" He asked knowing all to well that Robin couldn't say 'no' to the Alien Princess.

"Oh yes! I think it would very exciting. Friend Robin, please join us." She said as she looked at Robin.

"Star…I don't…" Robin looked at her beautiful emerald eyes. He sighed. "Sure." He said in defeat. Starfire gave him a warm smile. Robin smiled back at her.

"Glorious!" She said as she and Robin stood up and walked towards the others. Beast Boy placed his digital camera on his tripod so he could be included in the picture.

"Ready…" Beast Boy quickly ran next to Raven and put an armed around her and with his other hand, he made the all known piece sign. Raven was shocked at Beast Boy's action but quickly recovered and decided to actually smile. Starfire was standing next to Robin with a cheerful smile plastered on her face and arm around Robin. Robin smiled, trying to hide the fact that he was blushing. Cyborg was standing between Robin and Raven. He saw Robin blushing and couldn't help but laugh.

FLASH.

-----

Tick Tock. Tick. Tock.

Raven tried to read her book but couldn't. Her mind still wondered on what could happen. Why wouldn't Starfire tell her?

"Why don't you want to tell me?" Raven asked her not wanting to wait for Robin. A moment passed and Starfire finally turned her attention away from the city and towards Raven. Raven had the same worried expression she had before. A lamp, which was next to Raven's book, had exploded. However, this time she obviously was more worried.

"Raven, I would tell you but…" Starfire stopped not wanting to go on. Should she go on? What would happen if she starts crying? That means she broke her promise…to be strong. 'I wont break it…I won't give in.' Starfire mentally told herself.

"But?" Raven questioned softly. Starfire stared at the floor unable to look at her. 'I can't break this promise—I don't want to.'

"But it hurts so much." Starfire softly said that Raven almost couldn't hear her. Starfire eyes started to sting from the tears waiting to be release. Raven immediately stood up and took a seat next to her. "I don't wa-want to fe-feel like t-this." Her voice started cracking. 'Don't cry.' She repeated constantly in her mind.

"It will be alright." Raven reassured her. She saw her blinking back the tears not wanting to cry as soon but as soon as Starfire opened her eyes they weren't emerald anymore. They were red.

Raven closed her eyes thinking it was her mind playing tricks on her. "Remember that the Titans are here for you." Raven said with her eyes still close. Raven opened her eyes to find Starfire eyes back to their normal color…emerald.

"I won't give in." Starfire whispered so only she could hear but unfortunately, for her Raven heard her. Raven's mind started wondering on what she meant. 'Give in to what?' She thought as she saw Starfire staring at Jump City once again. 'Did her eyes actually turned red?' Raven asked herself once again.

"Not give in to what?" Raven asked her. Starfire eyes widened seeing that Raven had heard her. "Not give in to what?" She repeated. Starfire started thinking of an excuse.

The doorbell rang. Raven ignored it and waited for Starfire to answer.

The doorbell rang again. Raven ignored it again and waited for her to answer. Starfire looked at the giant metal door and wanted to get it but knew that Raven would tell her to sit down and tell her what was wrong.

The doorbell ran for a third time. Raven angrily stood up and went to answer the door with Starfire closely following.

"Thank you X'hal." She mumbled to herself in relieve that she didn't have to tell. Raven was about to answer the door but the sound of Starfire's voice stopped her.

"I should answer the door since you would probably hurt the person for interrupting." Starfire told Raven jokingly trying to lighten up the mood. Raven nodded and stood nearby thinking she would hurt the person if she opened the door.

Starfire reached to open the door and hoped that it was someone that could get her out of this prison. She pulled the doors open to find…Beast Boy! Her eyes widen at what she saw before her eyes. It was Beast Boy but with tan skin and black hair. He was wearing blue jeans, a dark plain green shirt with a dark green jacket over it, and a pair of dark green converse. Starfire finally recovered from her shock and smiled.

"Hey Gar." She greeted by calling him 'Gar' instead of his full name.

"Hey Star." Beast Boy said happily and then he turned his attention to the girl standing next to Starfire. 'Raven.' He thought nervously. Raven was standing nearby watching them both. He gulped and hoped that she wouldn't recognize him.

Raven stared at the two and wondered who 'Gar' was.

"He is my friend that I consider a brother." Starfire told Raven as if she was reading her mind. Raven nodded in response understanding what she meant. Raven stared at her for a moment. Maybe she was but it didn't really matter.

"Have I met you before?" Raven asked as she observed him. Nothing about him seemed familiar but his eyes. His emerald eyes seemed so familiar but she did not remember a 'Gar'.

Beast Boy, or Gar, violently shook his head. "No." He said hastily.

Starfire saw that he felt uncomfortable with Raven around. "Want to go get some Pizza?" She asked him. Beast Boy nodded and mouthed a 'thanks'. She smiled. Starfire was doing this because of him but in the same time, it would get her out of her current situation.

'Don't worry Star. We are going to talk.' She said in her mind. Starfire turned around to find Raven smirking. She let out an aggravated sigh. She knew better. Raven wasn't the type to let things go really easily especially something important.

'Very well, friend Raven.' She mentally told her.

Raven was about to walk off seeing they were going to go somewhere but something bothered her besides the fact that Gar seemed familiar and that Starfire was mentally cursing at herself. She sensed that Gar felt uncomfortable but the question is why.

Raven stared at him trying to see what made him uncomfortable and what was bothering him. Beast Boy fidgeted at her stare and eventually turned his attention to the floor as if finding sudden interest in it. Raven arched a brow at him but shrugged off the feeling and left without a word. Beast Boy saw her leave and let out a relieve sigh. "I was afraid that she would find out!" Beast Boy said as he imagined Raven finding out that it was he. Starfire snapped out of her thoughts and smiled.

"Don't worry, I don't think she sensed it was you." She told him. "You should really learn how to block your emotions." She said as she stepped outside and closed the giant doors behind her. A gentle cold breeze greeted her. Beast Boy stared at her wondering how she learned to block her emotions.

"So you know how?" He asked her. Starfire nodded and they both started walking off the island by crossing the bridge. "We're actually going to walk around?" He asked her not wanting to get tired of walking around the city. Starfire shrugged.

"Unless you have a car or know how to ride a motorcycle." She told him. Beast Boy sadly shook his head. "Well I see no other way." Beast Boy and Starfire were halfway across the bridge. "I hate this damn bridge." She said as the wind made it violently shake. Starfire didn't hear anything response and turned around to find him surprise at something. "What?" She questioned innocently as she struggled to stand up.

"First time I hear you use that kinda language." He told her as they both made it to the end. Starfire sheepishly smiled.

"Well I didn't have a very good night yesterday." She told him. Beast Boy nodded understanding what she meant.

"Well we should start walking to… where?"

"The Pizza place I guess." Starfire said not knowing where to go. "I just said that so you didn't have to feel uncomfortable over there and I can get away from over there." Beast Boy gave her a confused look.

"Why would you want to get away from over there?" He asked her. Starfire frowned.

"Raven. She wants to have a 'girl talk' and for once, I don't want to. Also, I really don't want to see Robin when he gets back." Starfire told him. Beast Boy said 'oh' in response.

"Well…off to the Pizza Palace!" Beast Boy shouted imitating a warrior. Starfire chuckled and they started walking towards the Pizza place.

Eight Minutes Later

They were on the pavement now between Hardwick Avenue and Martin Street they were walking past some clothing stores and a place that taught Karate. Just a couple of blocks away from the pizza place. Beast Boy and Starfire were talking about random ordinary stuff until…

"Hey!" Beast Boy shouted as a thought hit him. Starfire gave him a confuse look on why had he just shouted. People stared at him wondering what was wrong. "I just remembered about Ron." He stated. People rolled there eyes and continued walking. Starfire arched a brow not knowing who Ron is. "This kid that I'm gonna take care off." He told her knowing what she was wondering about.

"Oh." She said understanding. "When will you be taking care off him?" Beast Boy stopped walking and so did Starfire.

"We are going to take care of him in another hour." He told her emphasizing the word 'we'. Starfire immediately took noticed the 'we' in his sentence.

"We?" She questioned as she folded her arms.

"Yes we." He told her. "Come on, Star! I know you love kids. Please help me take care of him." He begged. Starfire watched him clasp his hands together and was on his knees.

"Isn't that your responsibility?" She asked him. People were staring at the two; again, wondering what was going on but continued walking.

"Yeah, I know it is b-but uh I'm no good at taking care of a kid." He truthfully told her. "Please." He begged once more.

"Alright." She said in defeat. Beast Boy stood up.

"Awesome! Also I've been meaning to ask you…have you talk to Jake lately?" He asked her.

"Jake has not been answering my calls and he is not online." She told him.

"What ya think he's up to?" He asked in concern. He hardly knew Jake but he seemed like a cool person and if Starfire's friend with him he must be sweet. Starfire gave him a reassuring smile.

"Don't worry I know he's fine. If I know him he is trying to get Chloe over here before this week ends." Starfire told him as she smiled at the thought of Jake sneaking Chloe over her. "Let's go to your apartment." Starfire told him when she came back to reality. Beast Boy nodded and they both walked towards his apartment.

Minutes later…

They were walking across the street and onto Hill Avenue. Once again, they were talking about things that normal teenagers talk about. Music, Movies, Life, and anything revolving around that.

"I don't think that—" Starfire stopped talking in mid-sentence as she saw something blue that was going to pass by them. Beast Boy looked around trying to find what had caught her attention. Loud booming music of a song that Cyborg would like was getting louder as it came closer. Beast Boy only knew one car that had speakers that loud. He stared ahead to find the T-Car going to pass by them and knew that Cyborg was going to stop.

"Damn." Beast Boy said as he saw T-Car getting closer. Starfire looked around for somewhere to hide. Unfortunately, for them, there weren't a lot of people walking by so they couldn't hide between a group of people and there were no alleys. He looked around for the nearest store. Nothing. Just apartments. Just their luck.

"We're screwed." Starfire told to Beast Boy as the stood still waiting for it to come. Beast Boy slowly nodded. The T-Car took a turn, which was a bit weird to Starfire since the T-Car started driving around in circles, which caused some cars to stop and people to watch in amazement. Beast Boy was confused on why they were doing that but quickly recovered.

"Come one this is our chance." He said. Starfire heard that song changed to some Opera thing and heard someone shout 'Robin, what the hell did you to my damn car while I was knocked out'. Starfire laughed at what the person had shouted. She knew it was Cyborg. Starfire eventually ran towards Beast Boy's apartment closely following him.

"I'm glad that Cyborg is okay." She said as they ran down the street hiding from the people that were watching in amazement.

"Yeah me too." Beast Boy and Starfire made their way through the crowd and ran as fast as they could.

-------------Beast Boy's Apartment--------------------

"It sucks I know but I just moved in so you shouldn't have expected it to be home sweet home." Beast Boy said as he took a seat on his couch. Starfire looked around in awe. The floor had cream pattern carpet, the walls were white, the where was a white sofa with green and white covered cushions, and a television that was a part of those entertainment-theatre centres.

"What are you talking about? This place is very nice." Starfire said as she finished observing the living room. "How did you get to do this in a small amount of time?" She questioned.

Beast Boy turned to her and smiled. "I've been saving money." He told her. Starfire gave him a confused look.

"I don't remember you saving any money." She told him as she walked around the room.

"Remember a long time ago, where Cyborg opened a bank account?" Starfire nodded. "Yeah, well I started one since I had nothing else to do. Now I'm thankful I did or I would have been living in a dump."

"You must have had a lot of money." Starfire told him as she took a seat in the other end of the couch. Beast Boy turned on the TV and the channel that it was currently on was playing a movie called 'The Transporter'. Starfire grabbed the white covered cushion and rested her head on it.

"I just had enough to get the walls and carpet done and to buy a television. The couch I had got it from Sandy, the owner of the apartments." Beast Boy told her as he started watching the movie. Starfire responded with an 'oh' and watched the movie with her best friend.

KNOCK

KNOCK

Starfire opened her eyes. Her vision was blurry but after adjusting to the light her vision became clear. She saw Beast Boy lazily walking towards the door. She looked around not moving since she was comfortable in the position she was which was with her head hanging off the couch. She smiled.

"I guess old habits are hard to break." She told herself as she grabbed the white cushion and laid her head in it. She turned her attention to the door waiting to see who it was.

KNOCK

KNOCK

"I'm coming already." Beast Boy told whoever was knocking on the door. Beast Boy opened the door to see a man with dirty blonde hair wearing one of those suits that a mechanic would wear. He was carrying Ron who was wearing a Ralph Lauren Stripe Polo Shirt with dark blue jeans. Over his back, a blue bag was hanging that read some company's name that Beast Boy didn't recognize. Beast Boy assumed it was something that the man had to take to work and was the name of the company that he works for. The man's brown eyes stared at Gar unsure of this was the right apartment room.

"Gar?" He questioned making sure he had the right room. Beast Boy nodded in response. He knew that Sandy had mentioned his name yesterday but he had forgotten it. "Well I'm Joey." He said as if he read his mind. "I came here to drop off Ron before I go to work."

"Yeah, me and my friend Kori were waiting for the little dude to come." He told him as Joey let down his child so Ron could be standing up. Joey then turned his attention to Gar.

"Well, Sandy sent me some things that you would probably need." Joey handed Beast Boy the bag that he was carrying. Beast Boy grabbed the bag and nearly dropped it. 'What could be in this bag?' He questioned as he lifted it with his left arm.

"This sure is heavy." Beast Boy said as he struggled to put the bag over his back. Joey nodded in agreement.

"That's how Sandy is. She worries too much for Ron." Joey told him. "Just imagine how the bag would be when Ron is staying at his Grandmother's house for a week." Beast Boy imagined how heavy the bag would be and laughed. "Well yeah I have to carry that every other month."

Beast Boy made a 'tsk, tsk' sound. "Sorry to be you." Beast Boy said. Both of them laughed. After a while, Joey knelt down to be eye level with Ron. "Ron, you be a good boy." Joey said. Ron nodded. "Next week me and mommy are going to take you to the Zoo." Joey said cheerfully. Ron smiled and hugged his daddy goodbye.

"Well, I'm off." Joey said as he stood up and walked away.

"Bye." Beast Boy and Ron said in unison. Beast Boy stood next to Ron who was watching his dad walk away.

"Bye, you guys." Joey walked off, leaving Ron standing in the hallway with Beast Boy carrying the stuff that Sandy had sent over. After Joey went inside the elevator, Ron looked up at Beast Boy.

"Where is your friend?" He asked as he arched one of his two small brows.

"Inside." Beast Boy looked down and led him inside his apartment. Ron looked around in awe as Starfire had done when she first entered the room.

"Can't say anything now." Beast Boy said teasingly to the kid. Ron stuck his tongue out in response. Beast Boy laughed and laid the bag in the kitchen counter. Ron walked over to the couch to find a red head girl staring at him.

"Are you Gar's friend?" Ron asked as he took a seat next to Starfire. Starfire nodded as she straitened herself from her sleeping position.

"Yes, you must be Ron." She told him. Ron nodded. "I am Kori."

Gar took a seat next to Ron who was between him and Kori. "What are gonna watch?" He asked as he saw Gar grabbing the remote.

"Something that is G rated for sure." He told him as he started channel surfing. Ron gave him a disappointed look.

"I'm old enough to watch something rated higher that a stinking G." He told Gar.

"Sure you are." Beast Boy responded as he kept channel surfing for something that they all could watch. "What about--uh…"

"I want to see Final Destination!" Ron shouted as he jumped in the couch.

"Stop jumping on the couch." Beast Boy told him. Ron ignored him, kept jumping on the couch, and shouting 'I want to see Final Destination' repeatedly. Beast Boy gave Starfire a Help-Me look.

Starfire sighed. "Ron, you should sit down or you may hurt yourself." She told him nicely. Ron stopped jumping down and shouting. Beast Boy stared at him, confused on why he didn't do that when he told him to stop.

"Why didn't you stop when I told you?" Beast Boy asked the little boy as he sat on the couch waiting for Beast Boy to put a movie.

Ron turned his attention away from the television onto Beast Boy. "Because Kori is pretty and nice." Starfire chuckled and Beast Boy let out an aggravated sigh. This was going to be a long day.

-------------With the Titans-----------------

The sound of the giant metal door closing echoed through the room. Then footsteps and now shouts of 'I didn't do anything' and 'yes, you did' were filling the room. Raven turned her attention away from her book too see Cyborg and Robin arguing over something, Already knowing it was something stupid.

"I didn't do anything!" Robin shouted in the top of his lunges with so much anger.

"My baby didn't do doughnuts by itself before!" Cyborg shouted in the same amount of anger that Robin used. Robin mumbled something incoherent. "What'd you say about me?" Cyborg shouted in anger. Robin rolled his eyes beneath his mask.

"I said that you're being a total dumb—" Robin didn't finish his sentence because black aura shut his mouth close. Cyborg's anger quickly vanished and laughed at Robin but then black aura shut his mouth close. Both Titans turned their attention to Raven. Raven stood there with the emotionless mask she would always have.

"I was trying to drink my herbal tea and read my book in peace." She told them monotonously with a little of anger showing. Not enough for something to explode luckily. "When I take off my magic you both have to stop arguing with each other like idiots." Raven demanded. Cyborg and Robin were glaring at her but eventually nodded. If they don't agree they knew that Raven was willing to leave them like that. Maybe Cyborg would get off easily but after the argument Robin had with her, she would probably leave him like that forever.

Swish. The doors open and Kelsey walked in. She was wearing a dark blue miniskirt and white tank top. She looked around the room and then saw Raven using her magic against the other two titans. She shouted as she ran over to them.

"What are you doing to them?" Kelsey asked Raven as she saw the black magic shutting Cyborg and Robin mouths

"Teaching them a lesson." Raven told her. Kelsey still gave her a worried look. "You know I'm not killing them or anything." Raven raised her hand and the black aura that kept their mouths close had vanished. Cyborg and Robin glared at her.

"Robbie!" Kelsey shouted excitedly as she ran to him and gave him a kiss on the lips. Robin half-heartedly smiled. Raven took noticed it wasn't a meaningful smile. Something was bothering him and she intended to find out. Not only that but she was determined to get answers from him on what happened last night.

"What y'all girls doing?" Cyborg asked as he went inside the kitchen. Raven snapped out of her thoughts and followed him into the kitchen with Robin and Kelsey closely following.

"We were going to eat our food." Kelsey told Cyborg as she took a seat on the dinning table. Raven stared at her 'food'. Salad. Raven remembered Kelsey telling her that she was watching her figure just moments ago and then left the room to change her clothes. She rolled her eyes at the thought. Kelsey was like all the other conceited girls she had ever met…definitely not Starfire.

'Wow that sure is going to fill her up.' Raven said sarcastically in Cyborg's mind. Cyborg laughed which cause Robin and Kelsey to stare at him both wondering what was so funny. Raven rolled her eyes at them both and Cyborg went to make himself some food. Robin laid his back on the wall with his eyes close behind his mask.

"What's wrong Robbie?" Kelsey asked as she was about to stand up and walked towards him.

"Nothing I'm just thinking." He responded as all sorts of thoughts were running through his head. She looked at him for a moment but shrugged of the feeling.

'Aw Little Robbie is sad.' Raven sarcastically in Robin's mind. She was still mad about their argument but she was madder at him by hurting Starfire emotionally.

He turned his head to the left to and saw a pissed off Raven. No surprise there, but right now he wasn't in the mood to argue. He ignored her and thought back when she would always try to hide when she was smiling. Back when Beast Boy would always try to make her laugh. Every time Cyborg, Starfire, and Beast Boy do something crazy or funny. That little emotionless mask of hers never worked but lately it seemed to be fooling many people. One day it could even fool him…they guy she thought as a brother.

Raven was staring angrily at him but her look softened after she sensed pain coming from him.

Cyborg turned his attention away from the steak he was heating and onto him. 'Robin is sure confused.' He thought as he looked at him. He then turned his attention away from him and onto Raven. 'I wonder how she took the news of BB leaving.' He shrugged the thought away as soon as he remembered about his steak.

"You should really pay attention to your food." Kelsey told him as she watched him almost burn his steak.

"Don't worry its not like you're going to eat anything higher than 0 calories." Cyborg told her. Kelsey glared at him and rolled her eyes. She then looked at Robin hoping he would say anything to Cyborg but he was distracted. 'God, I hope he's not thinking about her.' She then turned her attention to Raven.

"She's going to mentally tell him something." Kelsey said to herself as she let her gaze fall upon her salad. "I just hoped it doesn't involve me."

'We have to talk.' Raven said in Robin's mind. He sighed not really wanting to talk to her. He turned to look at her and saw that she was being serious. He decided to ignore her. Raven stared at him seeing that he was ignoring her. The same thing she did on there argument. Payback. She let out an aggravated sigh. 'Damn it Robin, I have to ask you something.' Robin smiled a little but nodded in response.

"We're going to talk so if anyone needs us we will be in the training room." Raven told Cyborg and Kelsey. Cyborg and Kelsey nodded. Kelsey watched the two left and couldn't help but feel jealousy. For all she knew, they could be making out. 'Now I have to worry with the Goth Girl.' Kelsey thought angrily.

Cyborg saw the look that Kelsey had and couldn't help but chuckle. Robin and Raven weren't going to happen. They were too alike and besides they love other people. Cyborg decided to mess with her a little. You know just for fun.

"Maybe Robin and Raven are doin' a bit more then talking. What ya think?" Cyborg teasingly asked the girl as he took a seat so he could enjoy his dinner. Kelsey glared at him and mentally cursed at him.

Cyborg laughed while Kelsey grabbed a fork and stabbed her salad with it. She knew that Raven and Robin had nothing going on between them but he has been spending less time with her and more time doing other things. 'What could be more important than me?' She asked herself as she saw that she had broken the plate with her fork.

"Wow, girl take it easy. I was just messin' with your mind." Cyborg told her as she saw Kelsey observing the broken pieces of her plate. She let out an aggravated sigh, picked up the pieces, and headed towards the kitchen to throw them away.

-------------------With Raven and Robin---------------------------

Robin and Raven walked in the training room once again. Raven sensed that her masked leader was feeling pain, anger, and sorrow. Something she hasn't sense in him for a long time.

Robin was standing near a window so he could see outside. The streetlights of Jump City had turned on preparing for when it became dark. Raven stood next to him staring at the floor with all sorts of thoughts buzzing through her head. How should she start the conversation? How would she ask him about Starfire? Would he avoid it? Those questions kept nagging Raven so she started the conversation with whatever came out of her mouth.

"Robin, the first thing I have to say is I'm sorry." She apologized as she turned her attention him. Luckily, her mouth had picked the right thing to start a conversation. "I'm sorry for mentioning Starfire." Robin turned away from Jump City, stared at Raven, and saw the emotionless mask she would always have but he knew that she meant it.

Robin had been feeling guilty as well for mentioning Beast Boy's name in the argument. "I'm sorry for mentioning Beast Boy." Robin apologized as well. Raven knew he meant it so he forgave him. They both stood there not one making a sound. They both knew that what they had mentioned was true but it was still rude of them to bring it up. Raven stared the floor with many questions on her mind. 'Should I say it?' Raven asked herself. 'Should I talk about Starfire right now?'

Robin knew that they just didn't come here to say sorry to each other and just leave. She brought him here for a reason and that reason wasn't just to say sorry. He knew her to well. If it was up to her she would not talk to him as long as a month unless he said something first.

"What happened to her?" Raven asked him as she tilted her head up to meet with Robin's masked eyes. "What happened to my best friend?" She asked desperately. Robin never saw her looking so… desperate for an answer. They both heard something explode nearby but neither turned to see what it was. Raven knew that she was showing too much emotion but right now, she didn't care. She wanted answers…she wanted her friend to be happy.

"I don't know." Robin said in response. Why did they have to talk about this? Didn't she know that this brought up emotions that he didn't want to feel?

Raven's emotionless face turned to anger. Robin can't say I don't know when he perfectly knows what's wrong. "Don't tell me you don't know!" She angrily shouted at him. Robin never heard her shout before especially at him. Robin stared at Raven's eyes. Her eyes reflected pure anger…anger towards him. The sound of an object exploding echoed in the room. "Answer me." She demanded with her eyes not leaving his masked ones. "What happened to her?"

Robin turned his attention to the floor unable to look at Raven. He didn't want to remember that night…that specific moment. It would always make him in the verge of tears. 'No.' He told himself. 'You're Robin the Boy Wonder. You were taught to never feel this way.'

He hesitated. If he didn't tell her than Raven would get mad and annoyed him until he told her. Robin had no choice but to tell her. "She told me that she learned about reality." Robin answered. He was remembering about last night and Robin desperately tried to block off the memory. Raven stared at him and sensed that he was trying to block off the memory. 'Was it that bad?' She asked herself.

"Robin, do you know what she really learned about?" Raven asked him as she hoped that this time he was not clueless. If he didn't know what she really learned about there was no hope of them ever being together.

Robin nodded in response but he continued telling her what Starfire had told him. "The pain that love causes made her run away." Robin said with his voice full of pain and sorrow. "And I'm the one who caused it." Robin's eyes started stinging. 'Damn it.' He thought as he blinked back the tears yearning to come out.

"You can fix this." Raven told him with hope. There was hope of them being together—for them to be happy. The lights flickered on and off and eventually, a light bulb exploded. Robin finally removed his gaze from the floor and turned his attention to Raven.

"I can't, Raven." He sadly told her.

Raven glared at him. "You can't or you won't." Raven questioned angrily. Robin sighed trying to ignore the pain, the sorrow…everything. 'What does she want from me?' He questioned himself. 'Why doesn't she just leave me alone…?'

"I can't." Raven and Robin both stood silent.

"Why?" Raven questioned. She saw that Robin wasn't going to answer her and angrily asked him again. "Why?" Robin bit his lip in anger.

"She shouldn't be falling in love with me!" He shouted angrily. Raven stood there unable to say anything. 'What does he mean?' Raven asked herself as she stared at Robin. "She should be with someone that would make her happy. All I've done is caused her pain."

"How do you know that you won't make her happy?" Raven asked him as she felt a tear run down her pale complexion. "I want my friend to be happy and you make her happy." Raven told him trying to convince him. "But you're telling me that you don't—can't make her happy?"

"It's me. Robin. The guy who gets obsessed with Slade, the guy who gets too serious at times, and the guy who messes up at everything." Robin told her as he walked around the training room. "The question really is." He stopped walking around the room for a moment. "How can I not make her unhappy?" Raven stood there glaring at him for thinking like that. She was about to protest but what? She was having the same problem with Beast Boy. She doesn't think she is good enough for him. If she tried, he would just say something about her being the same.

"Robin, can you do me a favor?" She asked after a moment of silence. "Tell her what you said and she'll give you the answers to your questions." Raven tried to tell him with the same emotionless tone she would have. "She will tell you why she fell in love with you instead of another." Robin didn't nod in response and she let out an aggravated sigh.

"Robin, please do this for her. You're not doing this for Beast Boy, Cyborg, Kelsey, or me. You are doing this for her…Starfire. I-I just don't want you or her to be depressed anymore." Raven told him as she put her blue hood up.

"If being apart helps you both then so be it but right now, she is heartbroken because you love Kelsey. The least you can do is tell her why you chose Kelsey over her." She didn't care if they get together…well a part of her does but what she wants right now is for her friends to be happy. Back to their normal selves.

Raven stared at him for a few moments before she left to go with the others. Robin stayed in the same spot staring blankly at the floor. He removed his mask and placed it next to him. A tear was running down his face. He told himself that he was Robin the Boy Wonder. A hero that showed no feelings towards another…a hero that had no feelings for another. 'That's all a damn lie.' He thought as blink back the tears that wanted to come out.

Raven peeked through a small hole that was on the door to see Robin crying. She sensed someone was feeling so much sadness and was crying. Raven believed the sadness part but the crying…that wasn't like him. He would always act tough. "He still cares for her…' Raven told herself. She stopped watching her leader and placed her arms in her chest…where her heart was.

'All those emotions were from her.' Raven thought as she blankly stared at the floor. 'I can't even put up a 20 minutes with all the pain she is feeling.' She this time actually left to go with the others.

------With BB and Star—

"You think that Gar is going to give me another piggy ride?" Ron asked as he played with his toy fire truck.

Starfire nodded. "If you do that little pout that you saw on TV he probably will." Ron nodded and smiled.

"Kori, where's Gar?" Ron asked as he looked around the living room. Starfire, who was sitting on the floor watching Ron play with his toy, shrugged.

Kori looked around as well and didn't see him. "I don't know maybe he's in the rest room or…" As in cue, someone was knocking on the door.

"I'll get it!" Beast Boy shouted as he came running to the living room to open the door. Starfire shrugged not really caring whoever opened the door but was interested on why was Beast Boy excited. Ron kept on playing with his toy fire truck not caring at all.

"Thank God you're here!" Beast Boy shouted as he opened the door. Starfire tried to see who it was but Beast Boy was on the way. A teenage boy that had black hair and blue eyes stepped in the house. Mark.

"Hey!" Starfire said excitedly as she ran up to give him a friendly hug. As soon as she stopped she looked at him confuse. "Why are you here?"

Mark pointed at Beast Boy. "He needed back up. Supposedly you and the kid are taking advantage by doing some sort of pout." Ron stood up and stood between them.

"You could say hi." Ron told him angrily. Mark knelt down to be in the same level.

"Hey—uh—Ron, is it?" Mark said unsure. Ron nodded and only responded with a quick 'hey'. Mark stood up again and gave Beast Boy a what-is-wrong-with-him look.

"He's probably mad that you hugged his girlfriend." Beast Boy told him, trying hard not to laugh. Mark gave him confuse look.

"Who's his girl—oh I get it." Mark turned his attention to Kori who was now holding Ron's hand. Ron stuck out his tongue at him. "Don't worry kid. I won't steal your girl."

"Let's eat since I haven't eaten anything since eight in the morning." Beast Boy walked towards the kitchen and everyone followed. "What time is it?" He asked everyone. Ron looked at him stupid as if was going to know.

"9:45 pm." Mark announced as he open the refrigerator to see what he had for food. Tofu. "Tofu?" He questioned as he looked around for anything that was good. "That's it?" Starfire sighed not really surprise that the refrigerator only contained tofu.

"What's Tofu?" Ron asked Beast Boy.

"You never heard of Tofu?" Ron shook his head. Beast Boy gasped. "You poor dude." Ron saw him exaggerating over something that seemed so unimportant to him. Starfire took a seat in one of the kitchen counters since he didn't have any seats in the kitchen.

"Gar, why don't we order pizza?" Starfire suggested as she turned her attention to Ron who was getting tired. Gar shook his head.

"I know I have something that isn't tofu in there." Mark stepped out of the way so Beast Boy could go through the refrigerator. "Tofu…Tofu…There!" Beast Boy pulled out some sort of green substance that nobody recognized.

"What is that suppose to be?" Starfire asked as Beast Boy laid it beside her. Starfire got off the counter and eyed the green substance. Mark looked at Beast Boy actually wondering if they were going to eat this.

"You're joking right?" He asked as he poked at it. It jiggled. Beast Boy slapped his hand so he could stop touching the food. "Ouch. That does hurt."

"Well you shouldn't be touching my food." Mark rolled his eyes and placed his hand in his pockets. "It's Jell-O what you think it was?" Starfire sigh while Ron yawned. Starfire walked over and picked up Ron.

"I'm going to take him to your bedroom, Gar." Beast Boy nodded and put pack the Jell-O back to the fridge seeing that they were not willing to eat it. "What took you so long to get here?" Beast Boy asked as he closed the refrigerators door.

"I was working on some stuff." Mark told him. Beast Boy shrugged and walked towards the living room. Starfire came back and took a seat in the couch while the other two stood up behind it. "Dude, I just remembered about what happened earlier." Starfire looked at him knowing what he was talking about. "The T-Car was going crazy and doing doughnuts." Everybody laughed.

"I wonder who did that?" He started thinking and Starfire saw Mark winked. She smiled in response. She should have known it was him. He was looking after them luckily. 'Probably with some remote control.' Starfire thought. The rest of the day they had spend it watching TV, talking about life, Music, and other normal things.

---------The next Day---------

Starfire twisted and turn violently on her bed. "No…No…STOP!" She screamed. Starfire hastily sat still with a gasp of terror. She woke up in cold sweat. Her heart was racing in an incredible rate and was breathing heavily. She scanned her room making sure no one was there. She saw nothing that was out of the ordinary and tried to calm herself.

"It was just a nightmare." Starfire tried to reassure herself. Moments later, her breathing returned to normal but she still was scared from her nightmare. Starfire turned her attention to the clock on her nightstand. Seven A.M. it read in red letters. She sighed knowing that the Titans would be awake. She laid her head down her soft lavender pillow and in an instant; her nightmare came back to her.

"I don't want to lose them." Starfire whispered to herself. Starfire raised her hands, sans their gloves, and stared at them. "I-I wouldn't let him hurt them… t-they a-are my f-friends." She stuttered as she remembered her nightmare. Blood dripping from the Titan's body... No!

"I wouldn't." She stood up. Starfire's nightgown reflected brightly from the light, it was made of sleek lavender fabric that she had bought two weeks before her arrival at Jump City. She stood up, grabbed some clothes from her drawer, and walked towards her rest room. Starfire splashed cold water onto her face, grabbed a towel, and dried her face. After she had finished she stared at her reflection in the mirror.

"You won't let Slade harm your friends." She told herself. "It was merely a nightmare." She sighed and headed towards the living room. 'Oh X'hal, I hope this day would be okay. Just like yesterday.' She thought as she walked down the hallway.

She made it to the door to find Robin making himself some food with Kelsey by his side. 'Not a big surprise.' Starfire thought as she looked around for the rest of the titans. Raven was sitting on the black armchair waiting for something…Starfire gulped. She was able to avoid the 'girl talk' yesterday because she came home around Two A.M. in the morning. She then turned her attention to Cyborg who was starting up the game station.

"Definitely going to with Cyborg." Starfire walked over to where Cyborg was.

"Hey Cyborg!" She said excitedly as she gave him a friendly hug. Cyborg gave her a warm smile.

"Hey lil lady." He said in response.

"I'm glad you're okay." She told him as she sat down next to him and watched him play a game that she didn't recognize. Cyborg responded with a 'thanks' and pressed a button that started the game.

"What you been up to yesterday?" He asked as he arched a brow but still not removing his attention from the game.

"I was hanging around with a friend. That is all." She told him as he was choosing a player.

"Oh and you and her had fun shopping?" He assumed as he had chosen a player with a scar under his left eye, a guy wearing a black ninja suit.

"He and I did not go shopping." She told him as he typed in his name. He pressed start and his player entered a forest.

"And who may he be?" He asked suspiciously, as another player appeared. Starfire smiled to herself. He was being her overprotective brother as he would always be.

"Gar and Mark." Starfire told him as Cyborg quickly made his player punch the other player. He did a combo, which made him gain some experience points. "Go Cyborg!" She cheered. Cyborg smiled. 'Just like old times.'

"Starfire?" Raven's voice called her. Starfire sighed. Here it comes. "I need to talk to you." She turned around and nodded in response. Raven stood up and headed towards her room with Starfire slowly following her.

'This day is going downhill from here.' Starfire thought and wished that Raven would talk about something else than what happened the other night with Robin. Anything but that.

What you thought when you heard off the Teen Titans ending with season five? (For those who just heard…what do you think right now)

-Me. Damn right pissed off. Red X! He only came out two times! Hardly any RobxStar fluff at the last two episodes.
