I'm back from my weekend camping trip with another chapter for you guys!
Also I'd like to thank you for reviewing and giving me opinions on how to finish this story, I'll keep those in mind so yeah here yah go, the latest chapter :)
NOTE: Some OCs might be needed here especially to Starfire's crew
DISCLAIMER: So Larry wasn't in the island where we camped… I guess I have to search elsewhere to own teen titans but at the mean time I don't own this kayy?
Surprisingly Starfire got a goodnight's sleep that night, the first satisfying sleep in years. The events of last night kept running in her head as she made last minute re-touches to her make up and outfit. "Starfire, are you ready? We're filming in a minute!" A voice shouted from outside. "I'm coming!" Starfire answered. She took a deep breath and re-read her script before going out.
They were in the parking lot where people began to swarm as the festival was about to start. "We're on in 3,2,1!" The director shouted as the camera rolled. "Aloha kâkou! And welcome to the main Island of Hawaii…" She started and began to say her lines for the introduction of the episode. As she approached the end she noticed Robin by the tent, watching her with a smirk on his face and his arms crossed in front of his chest. "So join me in discovering this Paradise Island of Hawaii!" Starfire said with much glee in her voice. "And cut!" The director shouted as the camera stopped filming and everyone was now relaxed.
Starfire received compliments from the crew as she approached Robin. "What are you doing here?" She asked. "Officer Robin Grayson at your service Ma'am!" He said reaching a hand to her but she ignored it and instead, Starfire placed her hands on her hips while waiting for an explanation. "A few Five-Os were instructed to guard around the Merrie Monarch Festival opening, just in case things got wild. I have specific instructions to be the body guard of this famous New York travel host." He explained. "So you're going to tail me all day?" She asked, stepping closer. "I guess you can say that." He answered taking the same distance forward. "While I pointlessly film this stupid festival?" She asked while inching closer repeating the adjectives he used to describe her work and the festival five years ago. "Exactly." Robin pointed out going near her.
They failed to noticed that their faces her inches apart and the crew was staring at them. Starfire pushed Robin and turned away, slightly blushing. The crew whispered among themselves and some even giggled.
"What the hell was that Star? You were inches from his face! Just try to have distance from him." She reminded herself as they entered the festival vicinity and started filming again.
For the whole time they were at the festival, filming and going around, Robin was there to make sure everything was alright and that she was safe.
After filming the official opening of the festival, the crew made their way to a famous hula school in the area to film a local group practicing for the annual hula competition. During the filming, Starfire interviewed the instructors, the musicians and some of the dancers. A few kids flocked around her and greeted Starfire. "Hey there girls, are you joining the competition too?" She asked and they all nodded at her. Then a few other girls came out with a hula skirt and a white tube top. "We will now teach you how to hula dance but first you must change into the traditional costume." The instructor said. The girls pulled her into the dressing room to get her changed as the camera stopped rolling.
"Starfire, are you ready?" The director asked. "Yeah I am!" Starfire answered from inside the dressing room. "Okay we're on in 3… 2… 1 and action!" the director yelled as the cameras rolled. Starfire stepped out of the dressing room wearing a grass hula skirt, the white tube top and a red flower was pinned behind her right ear, complimenting her already red hair. Robin's jaw dropped just by looking at how beautiful she looked, it reminded him of the time they went to their first luau in Hawaii and she wore almost the exact same thing only her tube was blue back then.
"Okay girls, now teach me how to hula!" She said as the kids pulled her into the middle of the stage. They began teaching her the basic hula moves as everyone watched her bubbly personality. She was laughing the whole time as she desperately tried to dance. Robin loved that about her, Starfire always had a way with different kinds of people. They always almost loved her instantly, a total opposite of what he was. He's kind of feeling stupid for letting her go that easily now.
"It's time for the final performance guys!" She cheered out. The music started and the girls, along with Starfire, dance in sync. After the last beats and steps, the music died and everyone applauded along with the director shouting "Cut!" The kids huddled around her and hugged her. "Thank you so much everyone!" She told the kids and the instructors.
After changing clothes and saying good bye to the people in the hula school, they made their way back to the hotel. The day of filming was almost done; they only needed to film a few shots at the hotel's luau tonight.
"You don't have to follow me around." Starfire said as she entered the lobby of the hotel. "It's my job, like it or not." He answered. "I don't suppose you'll be at the luau tonight?" Starfire asked, fumbling through her purse searching for her room key. "A Five-O's job is never done and I'll be here until you're sound asleep in you hotel room tonight." Robin answered. Starfire looked at him with an annoyed expression.
"But you don't have to accompany me to my hotel room. Go arrest a man or something." Starfire said as she entered the elevator. "Like it or not, you can't make me go away. See you tonight!" Robin teased with a smirk on his face. Starfire stuck out her tongue at him as the elevator closed. She leaned on the railing and muttered at how God must've hated her because she was eternally stuck with Robin.
Robin made his way back to his car as he chuckled. He totally enjoyed teasing her and Robin knows Starfire is probably cursing everyone responsible for this to happen. First she was back in Hawaii and second she was stuck with Robin for the duration of her stay.
"You've might been in a night club in Vegas or a romantic dinner in Paris but you have to experience an authentic Hawaiian Luau!" She said smiling at the camera. A number of shots were filmed showing Hawaii's night life and Starfire interviewed a couple of people in the party. Despite the fact that they were filming, Starfire couldn't help but notice that Robin wasn't there. "Maybe he fell asleep and forgot to wake up." She thought as she thanked the man for answering her questions. "Now that's over with. I'm going to enjoy the rest of my night at this Hawaiian Luau!" She said waving to the camera. "And that's a wrap!" The director shouted. "Okay everyone we continue tomorrow, in the mean time have a blast in this party." She added. The crew cheered as they packed the equipment.
Packing and cleaning up was such a rush because everyone wanted to relax and party. Starfire made her way through the partying crowd, trying to find a nice place for her to hang out for a while. She sat down by the Bar and watched the on going party. A few performers took the stage and started singing songs as people danced, some of the crew members were inviting her to join in but she refused.
Starfire looked around searching for that annoying Five-O officer. "Stop looking for him! He must've dozed off or he must've realized that you're a waste of his time." She told herself. Lost in deep thought, she failed to notice that the man she was searching for was already beside her. "Two blue Hawaii cocktails please." He told the bartender then he faced Starfire who was trying to ignore him. "Looking for someone?" Robin asked. Starfire shook her head and focused her eyes on the performers on the stage. The bartender served them their drinks and Robin handed a glass to Starfire who reluctantly got it.
"Just when I thought you wouldn't show up" Starfire muttered, taking a sip from her cocktail glass. Robin chuckled and looked at the crowd dancing to the lively music played by the band on stage. "You can't escape me so easily." He answered with a chuckle.
The band stopped playing as the host took over the stage once again. "What's a luau without some games?" He asked and the crowd cheered. "For our first game, we need 5 couples! Any volunteers?" He asked but the crowd was silence. "I thought so… alright then we'll pick from the crowd. Couple number one!" He shouted as the spotlight roamed the area looking for a couple. It stopped at a pair holding hands just near the stage. The audience clapped as both of them stepped on the stage. The host asked them a few questions and proceeded to find more players. "Alright! We have on spot left for the game. And our last couple for tonight is…." The host said as the drums rolled and the spotlight went about. It stopped on Robin and Starfire. "That lovely pair by the bar!" He said pointing at them.
"Oh no, we're not a couple." Starfire said in defense while Robin remained silent. "Oh hey they Officer Grayson! Why don't you bring that little lady up and we'll start the game." The host said, obviously knowing Robin. The crowd cheered them on as some pulled them on stage. There was nothing they could do. "I already know officer Grayson over here, so what's your name little lady?" He asked placing the microphone by Starfire's lips. "I'm Starfire Anders." She answered. "I didn't know you had a girl friend officer Grayson." He said looking at Robin. "She's not… my girlfriend." Robin said in defense. "Yeah, we're just… friends." Starfire added.
"Alright then folks shall we start the game?" He asked turning to the audience. They all clapped and cheered as the waiters bring in a table and placed five bowls of Poi. "Now the mechanics of this game is that all the men line up at the left side of the stage and the women line up beside that table over there. The men are now blindfolded and the women are given a spoon each." The host said as some of the waiters assisted in blindfolding the men and some gave spoons to the women on the other side. "They have to feed Poi to there partner as fast as they can, running from this table to their partners but here's the catch, the women are not allowed to use their hands and therefore they must hold the spoon between their lips." He added which earned cheers from the crowd.
They were all positioned and ready to start the game. "Yo DJ, crank up some music!" He shouted at the DJ who gladly played some party music. "Ready, get set and go!" The host shouted as the 5 women rushed to scoop a spoonful of Poi and run up to there partners to feed them. Starfire had some hard time feeding Robin since he was a few feet taller so she had to tip toe up to feed him a spoonful. At the fourth turn Robin choked at the Poi. Starfire gritted the spoon between her teeth "Just 2 more scoops Robin, don't be a baby and choke to death." She said as she ran back. Robin smirked despite the Poi dripping from his lips and admired at her competitiveness. Starfire scooped the last of the Poi and fed it to Robin.
"It looks like we have a winner and it's officer Grayson and Ms. Anders. Give them a round of applause everybody!" The host announced at everyone cheered at them. Robin was given a towel to wipe the Poi off his face and a glass of water to bring it all down. "Unfortunately that was all for fun and there is no prize but you have the honor to start the couple's waltz tonight." He said as some others laughed.
The band took the stage as Robin held Starfire's hand and pulled her in the middle of the dance floor as the spotlight followed them. The band started playing a summery slow song. Starfire placed her hands on Robin's shoulders and he placed his on her waist as they slowly sway to the flow of the song. Starfire looked up and saw Robin looking down at her. Blue clashed with green and instantly it's as if they were the only people in the world. Starfire inched closer, her arms around his neck as they continued to dance.
"That green eyes, yeah the spotlight shines upon you" the vocalist sang.
The song was perfect for the moment. He stared into her enticing green eyes. Next to her fiery red hair, her deep green eyes were very attractive. Those looks of innocence she gave him gave him a reason to stay. Looking down on those round green eyes of hers makes him feel he could be lost in them forever. No words could describe how perfect that instant was with the song and both of them dancing. He missed this and it took him 5 years away from her to realize he really can't survive without her. Robin was really stupid to let this perfect woman go. She was the one for him.
Robin felt Starfire lean on his chest which made him pull her closer to him. Their warmth surrounding them, their bodies molded together and at that moment they were both thinking that maybe everything is just a huge misunderstanding, that they were meant to be together and that maybe the reason why neither of them wanted to get divorce papers was because they were still madly in love with each other. Maybe 5 years apart made them want to be even closer together. They needed to just take things slowly.
Just then the song ended and everything returned to normal. It as if they were pulled out of their fairytale fantasy before the happy ending, before they could ride into the sunset and kiss. Both of them pulled apart from their embrace and clapped at the band. The next music was a fast one and neither of them wanted to dance. "I probably need to go back to my hotel room. I'm tired." Starfire said. Robin nodded and offered to accompany her to her room. This time she agreed.
The whole walk was full of silence once again. "Thank you for looking after me today." Starfire said as she searched for her room key. "You're welcome! It's always been my job to look after you Star." Robin said. She walked up to her hotel room door and unlocked it then she faced Robin. "I guess I'll be seeing you tomorrow?" She asked. "Definitely." He answered. "Alright… so good night then." Starfire said as she turned the door knob. "Good night Star." He replied. Starfire tip toed and gave him a kiss on the cheek before waving good bye and closing the door in front of him.
Robin just stood there dumbfounded by her sudden action. He just kissed him right? It wasn't a dream? Even if it's just on the cheeks, the thing is she kissed him. Robin smiled and walked away from her hotel room.
Starfire leaned on the door, smiling and touching her lips. "What the hell was that Star? Why'd you kiss him?" She asked herself. She hummed as she dressed for bed. Starfire began to sing 'green eyes' as she brushed her hair. Her thoughts were interrupted by a knock on her door. When she opened it, two of her crew members dragged her in and pushed her down on the sofa.
"Sophie, Alex what's the problem?" She asked looking at the pair in front of her. The blonde man paced back and fort as the brunette crossed her hands, standing in front of Starfire. "What's with you and the officer?" Sophie asked. "Robin? He's just an old friend. Remember that I used to live here." Starfire answered. "Friend? You two looked like you had a romantic relationship going on." Alex said. "Come on Star. There is something you're not telling us. We've been close friends, doing segments all around the world but there is so much of you we still don't know." Sophie said while sitting beside her. Starfire sighed and looked at the floor.
"Robin Grayson was… is my husband." Starfire said in a low voice.
"Husband!?" Sophie and Alex almost shouted. "Shhhh! Please don't tell anyone." Starfire pleaded. "I didn't know you were married at all! What happened?" Alex asked. Starfire told them the whole story, how they met, their marriage and the split up 5 years ago. "He's a damn bastard!" Alex muttered. "So what do you plan now?" Sophie asked her. "We continue filming. Nothing's going to change, we're not getting back together and I'll continue working with you guys." Starfire asked, standing up.
Sophie and Alex followed her. "Are you sure it's what you want?" Sophie asked. "Yes, I'm pretty sure now let's just pretend we didn't have this conversation and get a good rest for tomorrow." Starfire answered. Both of them nodded and bid her good night.
Starfire collapsed on her bed and stared at the ceiling. "This is just pathetic. He wouldn't want you back and can you really sacrifice your dream job to go back to him?" She asked herself out loud. "I am most certain that you are going crazy." She said as she pulled the covers over her and tried to sleep.
