SO this was longer than I thought it would be, but I wanted to get the other Titan's reactions to the tension that is in the tower at the moment. I also hope that I managed to at least partially get Starfire's voice. Ok the next chapter should be up soon and in it we will have the dreaded conversation and decision, although the way it is looking, that might come in two parts. I really hope that you like it/sigh

Disclaimer: I didn't own them the last three chapters, I sure don't own them now.

"What is up with those two?" Beastboy muttered after yet another incident of Robin trying to talk to Raven and having her glare at him before disappearing somewhere into the tower.

"What are you mumbling about man?" Cyborg asked coming up beside the green changeling and grabbing the second controller to the game station, automatically resetting the game that BB had been playing.

With a half hearted protest BB reselected his racing character and turned to Cyborg as he did the same. "Robin and Raven, he did something to piss her off and she hasn't forgiven him for whatever it was yet."

"It took her a month to stop sticking you to the roof after you put baby oil in her shampoo, just be glad she isn't mad at you this time." Cyborg replied settling himself into a comfortable position so he could beat not only Beastboy, but the high score on the game.

"You have a point there, but come on..." He paused a moment to execute a move that blasted him ahead of Cyborg in the race, only to have it throw him off the course and start him back at the beginning. "Robin never pisses her off, even when he went all apprentice Red-X on us she didn't get mad like this."

"Again, what's it to you? Stop worrying about some fight that Robin and Raven are having and worry about the game. This isn't any fun when you keep falling off the track like that, at least let me bump you off." Cyborg grumbled. "I knew I would win, but man this is too easy."

"Knew you were going to win?" Beastboy screeched, forgetting his other team mates for the moment to concentrate on making Cyborg eat his words. "No way dude, I am so going to whoop you butt."

Robin walked into the control room in the middle of a loud argument about 'ownage' high scores and furious button smashing. He almost turned around and went back to his room, where the only noise he would encounter would be his own, but for once he was getting sick of just himself for company and Raven's glares were starting to wear on him after three days.

Starfire zoomed into the room in a cloud of perfume and song, thankful a popular earth melody rather than one of her more traditional ones. She was making a bee line for the kitchen when she noticed Robin standing uncertainly in the middle of the room.

"Robin," She asked moving next to him, "Is something the matter?"

"What?" Robin came back to himself, inhaling the scent of candy and flowers that was so distinctly female and Starfire. He smiled slightly at her, trying to force the memory of the scent of spice and ice away from his mind. "I'm fine Star; just a little distracted is all."

"Are you certain Friend?" She eyed him closely, Star may not have seemed like the smartest girl on the planet, but she was acutely perceptive of her friends and their emotions after being near them for so long. "You seem more sad that distracted and I do not like to see any of you sad."

He gave another tight smile, trying to come up with a pleasant lie to shake off her concern when Raven entered the room. Her usually impassive face was lost in thought and he could only hope that it had to do with him.

Starfire noticed the way Robin's gaze clung to Raven as she moved past them and headed towards the windows to begin her meditation, she also noticed the way that Raven's eyes unwilling met his.

"Friend Raven, might I meditate with you this morning?" Starfire asked suddenly, an innate need to fix her friends filling her.

"Of course Star." Her tone was as passive as always. She quickly enfolded herself in her cloak and settled into her lotus position, forcibly shoving her mind away from Robin and the shock of heat she had received from his gaze.

His emotions quickly turning into an erratic mess in his heart, Robin quickly left the room heading straight towards the training room to try and empty his own mind.

"Raven, what is wrong with Robin?" Starfire spoke quietly so she wasn't overheard by the Titans on the couch a few feet away.

"How would I know?" Surprise at the question caused her own to come out more harshly that she had intended.

"He looks at you."

"He isn't blind Star, he looks at everyone." Purposely she mistook her friend's statement.

"I do not think that he is happy." Starfire insisted.

"He brought it on himself." Raven turned in the air to look at Star, who was mirroring her position.

"You know why he is not happy." Starfire fluttered her hands as she spoke, still careful to keep her voice down.

Raven sighed, knowing that Star would not give up until she found the truth and how to fix it. "Yes I know why he isn't happy."

"Raven, are you why he is not happy?"

Unable to avoid the caring and imploring gaze of the alien girl, Raven swallowed the harsh retort she had formed and answered carefully. Even though Star was now dating Aqualad, she had once had an enormous amount of feeling towards Robin and the last thing Raven wanted right now was an angry Starfire.

"He cares too much Star and I don't know if I can care the way he wants to." She blew out a breath, "He is ruining our friendship and I don't know what to do."

"Are you not the reason he is unhappy?" Star repeated her question, thinking maybe rephrasing it would get her the answer she was looking for.

"Yes, sort of…it's complicated." Raven defended herself.

"There is only one thing that you must do if this is so." Starfire said, staring straight into Raven's eyes, she was aware of so much more than anyone ever gave her credit for.

"What's that?" Raven responded dryly, expecting the making of pudding and some folk song from Tameran to be part of the cure.

"Make him happy." Star replied wisely, taking Raven's hand in hers and squeezing it reassuringly.

"Star," Raven shook her head, "How could I possibly make anyone happy?"

"We are your friends; how could you not make us happy?" She smiled, "How could you not make Robin happy?"

"I can't," Raven's voice was so quiet Star almost missed it.

"You are afraid."

"How could I be anything but afraid?" She looked at her friend with some desperation, "I don't know how to love, not like he wants…not like he needs."

"He thinks you can and that is all that matters my friend." Star patted Raven's hand again, "You do not need to meditate, you must go to him."

"Star…" Raven's voice trailed off as she was lead out of the room by the other girl, "I don't think this is a good idea."

Starfire paused briefly to consult her communicator to locate Robin, "He is on the roof, go to him."

"Fine, I give up." Raven threw her hands in the air after the doors to the control room whooshed shut and headed towards the roof with Starfire hot on her heels to make sure she didn't detour anywhere else.

"Raven," Star said as they reached the door leading to the roof.

"What Star?" Fear caused her voice to sharpen and she glared at the green eyed alien.

"Make him happy." Starfire smiled widely giving Raven a small shove towards the door before turning back to head to the kitchen for the mustard she had originally been looking for when she woke up.

"Yeah, make him happy…sure." Raven muttered, pushing open the door and stepping out onto the roof. Studiously she ignored the flipping of her heart when the lone figure turned and watched her as she crossed towards him.

"Raven," The way he said her name sent sparks down her spine and caused her knees to weaken.

"Robin," She coolly gave him a nod and stood beside him, looking across the bay and not at him. "We need to talk."

"I know."
