Happy 2007! … took me some time trying to think of the last chapter, but I finally got it! … so I hope you like it!!!
Six Confessions
The big tower doors opened as the Titan girls entered. It was dark inside, yet they didn't seem to notice. Usually, no one was in the bottom floors anyway. Walking up to the common room, Starfire leapt into the room expecting to see the guys watching television or playing video games, yet it was empty. A sense of dread filled Starfire up, until she noticed a white paper on the kitchen counter.
Hey girls!
Sorry we're not home, but be sure to meet us at 1237 East J Street. Got a surprise for ya! And why don't ya wear something sexy …
-Speedy
Starfire gazed at the note before handing it to Argent.
"What does Speedy mean by 'sexy'?" Star asked.
Argent laughed, that was her Speedy.
"Jus put on somethin' that Robin will like …"
Starfire nodded. Argent passed the note around letting Raven, Jinx, and Bumblebee read it. Something was up, yet they didn't give it a lot of thought. (note: Terra wasn't with the girls)
Ooo
The address was in downtown Jump, which Raven found suspicious. Navigating on J Street, they were puzzled as to the location of there meeting place. Starfire finally spoke up.
"Is that the location?" She asked the other girls.
Seeing what Starfire had pointed out, they saw that it was a giant skyscraper. None of them knew anything about the building and didn't have much to say about it, except Raven.
"Okay, is it just me or do they want us to meet them in a business building?" Raven asked sarcastically.
They exited the T-Car they had 'borrowed' from the Titans garage and hurried across the street to the building. Argent looked around trying to distinguish if any of the guys were there; however, her eye caught something suspicious. A shady person leaned on one of the building columns watching them. Breaking from the others, Argent jogged over and pushed the guy.
"Oww … damn R!" Speedy yelped as she pushed him into the marble column.
"Tryin' ta hide?" She playfully asked him.
"No, I'm just waiting for you girls … took you long enough anyway."
Speedy paced his way over to the others while Argent grasped his hand. Finally coming to the group, he told them to follow and led them into the building. All around them, people whispered to themselves and watched. It was kind of embarrassing to the girls who looked down at their formal attire. Speedy had on a black tuxedo, complete with his mask, yet didn't notice the stares they were receiving. It wasn't often, anyway, that the Titans went out in public.
Speedy led them to the elevators and pressed the up button. In a few seconds, the elevator doors opened and he gentlemanly waited as the girls entered first. Afterward, Speedy entered cautiously, making sure he was next to the open doorway. His actions drew the girl's attention since he seemed hesitant to be in the elevator with them. As soon as the doors started closing, Speedy quickly squeezed out and flashed the girls a devilish smile before they slammed shut. Argent slammed her fists against the elevator doors somewhat pissed about Speedy's actions.
"What the hell was that?" Bumblebee asked Argent.
"I don't bloody know …" Argent looked up at the number panel, noticing the elevator wasn't stopping.
"I am somewhat fearful friends." Starfire quietly said to the others.
They all trusted the guys, though, and knew they would never harm there own friends. Yet, Starfire had said what most of them were feeling.
Ooo
Reaching the rooftop, the elevator doors opened. Everyone stared in amazement at what they were now facing. They were not on the rooftop as they had expected to find themselves, but were inside a restaurant. They stepped out of the elevator still filled with awe. Around them were crystal chandeliers, windows that overlooked the city skyline, and the scent of delicious food.
"Ah, the Titan girls … your table is this way." The hostess said to them as he walked into the restaurant interior.
The girls followed, it wasn't often that they were in a place as nice as this. They were finally led into a private room where they found the guys sitting around a large circular table.
"Sorry I had to ditch ya!" Speedy said to the girls while leaning back in his chair. He took a sip of his water and smiled.
"How did you …?"
"Express elevator." Speedy answered Jinx.
Every guy had an empty chair next to them, for their girl to sit next to them. The only person to already have someone next to them was Terra, who had come earlier at the request of Aqualad. Terra kept her head down as Starfire and Raven gazed over her. Some feelings still hurt, yet Starfire believed in forgiveness and went up to hug the former Titan. Raven stayed back, but did give Terra a smile.
As expected, each of the girls found themselves next to the guy they liked. Raven, reluctantly sat next to Beast Boy, as well. Soon, everyone was laughing and talking while the waiters served them plates of heaping food.
"Why did you guys do this?" Raven asked later on.
"We talked some things earlier today and realized that its good to show appreciation for the things you have and the people your with." Robin answered.
For hours, they stayed there talking about every little thing they could think of. The Titans even pressed Robin to tell them about the legendary Batman and his history in the infamous Gotham City. The night was soon to end though. For some, it wasn't over just yet.
Ooo

Ooo
Later that Night
Robin/Starfire
Robin paced in front of Starfire's room, contemplating Beast Boy's words from earlier in the day. He had all the courage in the world to fight Gotham's worst criminals, alien armies, and Slade yet he was a coward when it came to telling Starfire his true feelings towards her. He leaned against the wall opposite her door and slid down to the floor.
"Idiot, idiot, idiot …" He kept repeating over and over. "It's just Starfire … what's to be scared about?"
Just then, Starfire's door swooshed open and she appeared at the doorway in her pajama bottoms and a white tank top. She was startled to see Robin sitting outside her door.
"Robin?"
Robin gave her an awkward smile and got back to his feet. He was blushing, but he tried to hide it.
"Oh hi Star." He answered.
"Why is your face shaded red?" Starfire asked, pointing to his cheeks.
"Oh its nothing, I was just leaving …"
Robin turned away from her door and hurridly walked down the hall. Yet halfway down, he stopped. He knew he was running away from something that had to be said, something that he knew would never be said if he wasn't the one to say it. He turned back and found Starfire still at the doorway staring at him in confusion. He came back to her.
"Actually Star, there's something I have to ask." He started. "Today, I realized that sometimes, people just wanna know their appreciated and cared about … Star, you're my best friend … someone that I trust and can always count on … I should have said this sooner, but I love you Star …"
Starfire's cheeks turned red.
"Ever since I first met you I felt an attraction … I guess I should have said it sooner but"
"I love you too Robin." Starfire cut him off.
Robin smiled.
"I could not understand the feelings I felt towards you … on my planet, love is a feeling that is not understood well." She continued somberly.
Robin grasped her hand.
"We're not on your planet …" He said to her.
Robin and Starfire stared at each other in anxiety. Both knew that in a moment like this, a kiss would occur, but that was somewhat of a cliché. HOWEVER, Robin didn't care and kissed Star anyway. Starfire put her hand on her lips where Robin had just kissed her, she was delighted that there feelings were finally revealed.
"I assume we are the boyfriend/girlfriend?" Starfire asked amusingly.
Robin's cheeks were still flustered red. He smiled at Starfire's question and held her hand.
"Yeah …"
Ooo
Beast Boy/Raven
The rain clouds had moved in, pelting Raven's window with gentle taps. Even though it was soothing to listen to the raindrops hit her window, Beast Boy lay awake, staring at the ceiling. Raven's head lay against his chest, her purple hair tickling his neck, yet she sensed he wasn't sleeping. She lifted her head and turned to an insomniac Beast Boy.
"What's wrong?"
Beast Boy twisted his body to face her. He brushed her hair with his hand while he contemplated her question.
"Nothing." He finally answered.
"You're lying."
Raven grasped his hand that brushed her hair, she was serious.
"I was just thinking about … us."
"What do you mean?"
Raven's indigo eyes connected with Beast Boy's green ones. Her eyes were filled with concern. In her life, she had always feared relationships because of her past. She dreaded in her mind what Beast Boy was going to say.
"I love you … a lot …" He said to her. Raven was relieved, yet sensed he wasn't finished yet. "… I had fun today, with you … but … why can't we show our true feelings to each other in public?"
Raven looked down. She loved Beast Boy and knew it was unfair to him to not reveal those feelings to her friends. In a way, she was also unsure if she could ever be with anyone, ever … she was half-demon anyway. It frightened her.
"I … I don't know Beast Boy …"
Beast Boy lay up in her bed to kiss her, but she turned away. Unfazed by her gesture, he brushed her hair aside and came to her ear.
"Be my girlfriend Raven …" He whispered to her.
Raven looked back at him as he backed away. She was surprised by his question. Even though they had become closer, Raven never really believed Beast Boy would want to have that close of a relationship with her. Yet, it was Beast Boy and he was unpredictable.
"Beast Boy …"
She moved closer to him and their lips met. Beast Boy was somewhat caught off guard because he was usually the one who showed affection in their unique relationship. Even so, he took this as a good sign and grasped her hand tightly in his.
"Yes …" She answered him.
