Hey, it's me again! Thank you to all the reviewers!! Here's chapter 10!!!
disclaimer: I don't own teen titans. If i did, Robin and Starfire would have already admitted their feelings. It's so obvious! I don't own anything else either.
Robin, Starfire, Bruce, and Alfred all sat around the table in a VERY uncomfortable silence. Even though Bruce was trying to be emotionless as possible, out of the corner of his eye Robin could see him glaring at him from time to time. After about ten minutes of the silence Alfred finally managed to say something.
"So Miss Starfire, how far along are you?" Alfred asked.
Starfire, who had been staring at her shoes the entire time, snapped her head up to look at Alfred. "About 6 months." She answered and then promptly returned to looking at her shoes.
"How old are you?" Bruce asked. Starfire looked up once again. "!7, I'll be 18 in the Earth month of June." Starfire said. (I don't know if i said when their birthdays were, but the lack of dates is starting to confuse me, so i'll just say her birthday is June 10th, and his will be December 15th. Just so i don't get too confused)
"Only 17?" Alfred asked.
Starfire nodded and then began twisting her hair around in her fingers, a habit that she did when she was extremely uncomfortable or nervous, or both. Once again, all was silent.
"I believe I shall go to bed now." Starfire mumbled and then stood up and pushed the chair in. "It is very nice to finally meet you." Starfire said, addressing it to both Bruce and Alfred. She then quickly walked off to the guest room. They all watched her leave and as soon as she was otu of earshot Bruce turned to Robin.
"I can not believe how incredibly irresposible you are! What are you going to do now? You can't possibly be thinking of trying to raise your child AND remain a part of the Teen Titans, are you?" Bruce asked.
Robin stared at his feet, since he was too afraid to look anywhere else. "I don't know." Robin mumbled.
"Master Dick," Alfred said, using the nickname Robin absolutely HATED, "Why did you wait so long to tell us?" Alfred asked.
"That's what i want to know." Bruce said while crossing his arms over his chest as he waited for an explanation. Robin knew they would want to know this, which is why it was a pretty bad thing that he didn't have a good answer.
"I knew you'd be mad. And I didn't know how to tell you. I couldn't just pick up the phone and tell you something like that while I was miles away." Robin said. Even though looking back on it, maybe that would have been smarter considering Brue couldn't kill him over the phone.
"How could you not have been more careful! Didn't I ever give you 'The Talk'?" Bruce said.
Robin rolled his eyes, forgetting that he wasn't wearing his mask and everyone could see. "Yes Bruce, you gave me 'The Talk'." Robin answered.
"Then what is your excuse for letting something like this happen? You are supposed to be the leader of the team! How could you be a good leader when you have a child to worry about!" Bruce shouted.
"And a wife." Alfred added. Robin and Bruce both turned to look at him. Then Bruce returned his gaze to Robin, eye twitching. Robin immediantly backed his chair up so he was a little further away from this extremely pissed offf father figure.
"You mean to tell me that you married her too and never told me!" Bruce said. Robin shook his head quickly. "So, you're not married?" Bruce asked. Robin nodded.
"Well, you must be married. She is pregnant. Are you planning on having this child out of wedlock?" Alfred asked, obviously getting angry now. Alfred was extremely old fashioned and completely objected to someone being born out of wedlock. Especially someone who would be his great grandchild. He was going to be a great grandfather, of course not by blood, but close enough. He suddenly felt extremely old.
Robin sighed. "It's not that I don't love her or anything. But how am I supposed to know if we're supposed to be together forever?! I'd rather not propose until I'm sure." Robin said. What was with everyone and the whole marriage issue?
Bruce rubbed his temples. "Why didn't you be careful? All this wouldn't be happening if you had just been careful." Bruce mumbled.
Robin was begining to get irritated. Everyone was making this sound like this was all his fault or something and it could have simply been prevented. of course, it could have, but it was too late anyway so why didn't they just lay off already?! "It just happened! It was only that one time!" Robin yelled.
"It only takes one time." Alfred informed him.
Everyone was quiet for some time. All wrapped up in their own thoughts. "So, you have 3 months to have everything ready." Bruce said quietly.
"6 months." Robin corrected. Bruce looked at him with a confused expression so Robin explined. "A Tamaran pregnancy last for 12 months. So the baby isn't due till the beginning off June.": Robin said. Bruce nodded to show his understanding. Alfred stood up suddenly.
"Well, this had been a very eventful day." Alfred said. Bruce and Robin nooded. "I'm going to sleep. I shall see you tommorow Richard, Bruce." Alfred said. He bowed slightly and then walked out of the room.
Bruce stood up soon afterwards. "I'm going to bed too. I need to sleep on this." Bruce siaid. Without a goodbye, he silently walked down the dark hallways toward his room.
Robin sighed in relief. They took that better then he thought they would. He put his hands behind his head and tilted his chair back in forth, a habit that Alfred hated. Why did marriage keep coming up? He didn't even know if it was legal for them to be married before Starfire turned 18. He decided that he should probably find out. Robin stood up from his chair and walked over to a computer. He logged into his account and got onto the internet. He searched for a site about Jump City. He soon found one and looked for the laws. Funny that he didn't know all of them since he was a member of the Teen Titans. He quickly found the one he was looking for. 16. You had to be 16. He felt a mixture between fear and joy. Now he didn't have any excuse of why he couldn't marry her. Of couse a bigger part of him did want to marry her, but the part that didn't was why he felt some fear. He sighed. This had been a long day and he was in need of a good night's rest. He turned off the computer and walked into his old room and fell asleep.
