Hey there people!

I've been getting a lot of reviews from people saying that 'I thought this was a Robin and Starfire fic' it is but you guys just have to be patient. Right now I switched it to go under the Speedy and Starfire search because right now she's just getting over the whole 'Speedy cheated on me' thing. Believe me I am a total Robin and Starfire freak. I love that couple SO much. ROBIN AND STARFIRE 4EVER! But you guys just have to be patient with me, Richard and Starfire will meet soon, maybe the next chapter. I dunno yet.

I think I'm going to add the Beast Boy and Raven pairing too but that's also in a later chapter. My chapters are kinda long for me to write and I just need time. I want to add Cyborg too but I don't know how, I'll think of that later though.

And lastly I want to dedicate this chapter to strodgfrgf! You're really an awesome reviewer and I hope you like this chapter! O and it's impatient :)

SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

She was crying, still crying. Speedy had hurt her so much. She couldn't believe what an idiot she had been to not notice that such a good man was already taken. But she still couldn't believe he would ever do that to her.

She was huddled in her dark room, leaning her back against the bed. Her face was still puffy and pink and you could hear her nose sniffle every once in a while.

Martha was outside her door with her ear pressed against the door, she could hear Starfire crying My poor baby.

She decided to do something about it so she knocked on the door.

"Starfire sweetie. You don't need to cry over that fool. He didn't deserve you."

She heard silence from the room.

And then Starfire opened the door by just a crack and Martha could see the broken heartedness in her eyes. But then that look turned into a look of determination and she said "Your right Martha."

She closed the door and Martha heard her voice mumble "Let me know when my sister comes home."

"Yes I will."

She turned to leave when she heard a series of crashes on the other side of the door, she wanted to turn around but she kept on walking.

Inside the room Speedy's deception had taken over Starfire's mind, she was angry. Angry at him for deceiving her, and angry at herself for being so stupid, for believeing him, for believing that love was real.

She tore open her pillows and let the feathers fly everywhere, grabbed a rusty pair of scissors and ripped through her pink satin covers. And with the same pair of scissors, she grabbed them and threw them across the room and shattered the mirror. It broke into little pieces and shattered on the floor before her. She walked across the floor, not even caring if she stepped on a piece of glass, nothing compared to the pain she was feeling inside. She picked up the scissors she once flung across the room and collapsed on the ground, she began to cut through the dress she wore. The cutting relaxed her she had been there cutting away for about ten minutes when she started to feel sorry for herself, for letting Speedy take over her life and everything she did.

That's when she heard a knock at her door. She saw the door swing open and the shadow of her sister took form.

"Pathetic" She spat out.

Starfire was still, nothing she said would make her sister understand. She saw her sister make her way to the spot where she was. Blackfire grabbed her by the shoulders and threw her seemingly lifeless body onto the bed.

She still lay motionless but tears began to run down her cheeks.

"Stop crying!" Blackfire yelled as she slapped her, hard.

Still no reaction from Starfire, that's when Blackfire started to undress her.

"What are you doing!" Yelled Martha.

"Shut up Martha! And what are you standing there for! Get me some cold water! Fill the tub!"

Martha did as she was told she brought in buckets of water and started to fill the tub with freezing water, she had no time to heat it up. Once the tub was full Martha saw Blackfire bring in a naked Starfire bridal style. Starfire still had the look of not caring in her eyes though.

But once she hit the water Starfire gasped loudly, as if she had awaken from some sort of coma. She covered herself up with her hands when she noticed she wasn't alone.

"Take a bath and then we'll talk." Blackfire ordered.

"But the water it is freezing." Starfire replied with her teeth chattering.

There was no response from Blackfire, she just turned her back and started walking away.

"You know what happened, right Ms.Starfire?"

"Yes Martha, I do."

"Then why-"

"Please Martha, don't ask, I don't know why I-I just couldn't. Just leave."

Martha left and Starfire was left to talk to the least person she would ever want to talk to in the world, herself.

"Soo.." She sighed heavily. She turned her head upwards and rested her neck against the tub.

The water was cold but by now her body had gotten used to it and only when she thought about being cold did it bring shivers to her skin. She took a bath quickly she didn't want to think. Baths were meant for you to be alone, with your mind, at ease, but right now she didn't want to think.

Once she was out, she toweled off and put on her nightgown. She took a look at her reflection, she looked awful, she looked like she had been crying for days. She took her hands and tryed to mold her face to the way she wanted it. She looked sad and she had bags under her eyes. She put her fingers on both sides of her face, under her eyes, and pulled up and the bags went away but once she let go they were back.

"I can't keep living like this."Her voice was beginning to crack.

"He's ruining my life!" she cryed.

"No, stop" She told herself "Just breathe"

She took in several breaths before she walked into her bedroom again. It was clean, new sheets and the feathers were all picked up. The only thing left was the broken mirror. She layed down to rest when her sister walked in.

"Have you forgotten?."

"No I hadn't."

"Good, Starfire, it's time."

"Time? For what?"

"For you to marry."

"Oh Blackfire, please not now."

"You had your chance and look what happened. Your 'prince charming' and your 'true love' was worthless! All you did was waste your time with him! Did you really expect him to marry you?"

She received a sad about to cry look from Starfire. "Do not cry for him. He's not worth it. Besides I have someone in mind for you."

"But Blackfire I don't want-"

"Enough Starfire. We've wasted all this time on what you've wanted now it's time to do someting that we could all use. A new husband, for you." She pointed.

"Besides it won't be like we're marrying you off to some old guy. This one's handsome and young, and he's rich. You'll meet him this Friday. We're going to have a dinner."

"This Friday."

"That's what I said."

"Blackfire you don't expect me to marry this guy, right? I'm just going to meet him..right?"

"If everything comes out right, and I'm expecting it will, then you should be married in a matter of weeks."

"No, you can't do that."

"Of course I can, ever since mom died I've had to take her place, remember?" Blackfire's eyes were blazing. Starfire knew how much Blackfire hated her. Their mother had died giving birth to her. Starfire was speechless, everything was coming so fast, too fast.

"Go to bed now. We'll plan the dinner tomorrow."

"Have you seen him?" Starfire asked as Blackfire turned to leave.

"No but I've heard good things about him througout the town." She closed the door.

Once Blackfire had closed the door Starfire threw herself on her bed and sighed heavily. "This can't be happening.."

"..to me." And she fell asleep.

SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

In the morning Richard had waken up refreshed and ready for another day. He dressed in his old peasant clothes, his lucky pancho and his reliable brown pants, he hadn't had time to buy any fancy clothes fit for the money he now owned. But who cared no one knew him around here so no one would care right? He finished dressing and left to wake his friend in the other room. He knocked on his friend's door, his friend wasn't even awake, he knew, but he had to wake him up they had to go into town today.

His friend opened the door, his blonde hair was all messed up and his clear blue eyes were half-opened and sensitive to the light around him. All he had on were a pair of trousers and you could see his firm chest and stomach. Both he and Richard were in great shape but Richard was a little less proud about his shape. Unlike Garfield, Garfield loved to show off his six pack to the prostitutes they slept with. Yes, they are men and they sleep with prostitutes. They both agreed that when the right woman came into their lives they would stop and right now they hadn't found her, either of them.

"What." he said plainly.

Richard chuckled. "Wake up Gar I'll be waiting for you in the dining room, it's time for breakfast."

"What if I'm not hungry."

"Then don't eat but get dressed we have to go into town today." He turned around and started to walk, he could hear Garfield close the door and moan as he hit the bed again.

"I'll be there in a minute!" He whined.

Richard walked into the dining room and sat at the end of the table. That's always where the 'master' of the house sits. In a matter of minutes Richard was eating and Garfield walked in, he was served and they were left alone.

"So why do we have to go into town?" Garfield asked.

"Loaner's office."

"Why?"

"I have to go check on the business."

"Oh."

"And you have to come with me because you're like my accoutant, lawyer and best friend wrapped in one."

"Yay." Garfield cheered sarcastically.

They soon finished breakfast and asked the servants for a carriage to take them into town. They arrived at the office in about 10 minutes. Meanwhile Garfield was busy looking out the window at the possible wives he could have and wondering who he would make the best children with.

Once they were there Richard told the carriage driver to wait outside and they would be back out in a few minutes. They entered and were met by no one the little building was empty.

"Hello." Richard called out.

Silence followed until a voice from the back answered back.

"Yes." The same man that had attended X the other night appeared before the two.

"How may I help the two of you?" The man said hesitantly, apparently aware of Richard's clothing.

The man had on a gray business suit, you could clearly see that it was to thick for him because he was all sweaty. And he had on a pair of bifocal(sp?) glasses, straight across the top and round at the bottom.

Richard glared at him "What are you looking at?" He said roughly and stepped foward.

"Easy Richard." Garfield said and warned the man by putting his arm over Richard's chest.

"Sir, we're just here to forsee the management of this..uh.office you have here."

"Forsee the management? Why? Who are you?"

"This is Richard Grayson and he has just inherited this office from his father."

"Oh I see."

They stood there in silence until Garfield spoke up.

"Well? are you going to hand us the documents, or transcripts or some sort of record keeping you have?"

"Oh, I'm sorry I can't"

"What do you mean you can't?" Richard said bitterly.

"Well I dont' keep records." The man lied.

"You have to keep some kind of records! It's your job!" Now Garfield was yelling this man was lying he could tell, he was trying to rip off his friend. From behind him he saw Richard out of the corner of his eyes lunge towards the sweaty man and pin him against one of his book shelves.

"Give us the damn records!" Richard was losing his patience.

From behind Richard Garfield spoke "My friend is losing his patience are you going to give us the records or not?"

"Yes yes just make him stop." The man struggled to break free from Richard.

Richard let go of him suddenly and the man fell to the floor. He scrambled to pick himself up and went to the back to find the records, he knew his new boss wasn't going to be happy.

He came back with 3 boxes of papers, thank gosh they were at least organized. Garfield started to look at them while Richard saw as the man started to get sweatier, he even noticed that every once in a while the man would take off his bifocals and rub them with a cloth then he would use the same cloth to wipe his sweat off too. Which Richard thought was just unsanitary.

"Question." Garfield said.

Both Richard and the man were taken off guard by Garfield's question.

"Who's this Xavier Aguiano?" Garfield continued.

"Who?" The man pretended to act like he didn't know who X was.

"Xavier Aguiano" Garfield repeated. "And there's a strange rotation of missing money here. Look Richard."

Richard leaned over Gar's shoulder and payed attention to everything Garfield said and it was true everytime Xavier's name came up there was an amount of money to be accounted for.

"It's not just a small amount of money either. If we counted it there could be thousands missing."

Richard was furious not only had this man cheated his father but this was the first day Richard had been to his office and he had already found out the man was a cheat.

Richard grabbed the man again. The man flinched and he was trembling.

"Please tell me he left some sort of down payment." Richard said through clenched teeth, Garfield could tell it was taking all of Richard's patience to not rip through the man's own being.

"Yes sir, he did."

"What."

"The deed to his house."

Richard let him go little by little and when his feet touched the ground he said.

"Go get it."

"But Sir."

"Go get it."

"But Sir, you don't understand.."

"I'm not going to repeat myself."

The man ran back and returned with a rolled up piece of paper tied up with a maroon ribbon.

"Here you go but I must say that he was going to come back for them soon. What do I tell him if he comes back?"

"Tell him whatever you want, I don't care."

And with that he and Gar were gone.

SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

Later that day, still at the loaner's office..

X walked into the loaner's office all smiles but when he entered he saw the loaner with his head lying on his desk.

He frowned. "Hey, are you okay?"

The loaner lifted his head and jumped when he saw that it was X.

"I'm so sorry, I had to."

"What are you talking about, what'd you have to do?" As he asked he took out a pouch and threw it on the desk.

"What's that?" the loaner asked.

"I came to pay off the loan you gave me and to get back the deed to my house." He grinned.

"Where'd you get it from?"

"I did a favor for my wife, well favors."

"Shit." He heard the man mumble "You're too late."

X wiped off the grin he had and began to get angry. "What do you mean 'too late'? I want the deed now."

"I'm sorry, remember when I told you about my new boss? Well he came today and and he took it."

"You let him take it!"

"I had to, he came with another man and they looked at the records."

"You showed him the records!"

"I told you he's my new boss! I had to!"

"I can't believe this! Blackfire is going to fucken kill me! Wait, what was his name?"

"What?"

"His name, what was his name!"

"I think I heard his name was Richard Grayson."

"Richard Grayson?"

"Yeah, remember I told you he was just a peasant who got lucky? That's him, he's loaded now."

"Loaded huh? Do you think he would ever sell me the house back?"

"Even if he did you wouldn't be able to afford it"

"I have this pouch of jewels, it's pretty expensive. Now what did this guy look like?"

"Well, he had black hair and blue eyes. He doesn't look like a rich man at all today he wore a pancho and a pair of brown pants. And his friend had blonde hair and blue eyes, he looked like the rich man, he had a blue business suit. It looked expensive."

"Okay, got it."

X picked up his pouch and walked home, he had a good idea to tell Blackfire.

SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

At night, in Blackfire and X's room..

X was sitting up in bed watching Blackfire get ready for bed. Right now she was finishing brushing her hair.

Okay just tell her, she won't get mad. Even if she does you have the plan for him to marry Starfire and then we get the house back and problem solved, right?

"Right." He accidently said aloud.

"Did you say something?"

"Uh..yeah how was your day?"

"Nothing much. When Starfire woke up she was still being a little persistent bitch. She doesn't want to get married."

"Speaking of marriage-"

"Speaking of marriage." Blackfire cut him off.

"Have you heard of that new man in town? I've heard he's a real catch, and he's filthy rich."

"Yeah I've heard people mention him." Speedy said slowly.

"Well today Starfire and me, mostly me, planned the dinner party we're having Friday."

"And when were you going to tell me, your husband?"

"Tonight actually the idea barely came to me last night when Starfire went crazy on me."

"She went crazy?"

"Yeah, I had to give her an icy cold bath to make her react a little."

"Woah, I guess she really liked that Speedy guy." he said sadly.

"I guess." Blackfire said in a not caring way. She blew out the candles and tucked herself in. "Good night."

"Night." X replied.

He sat there for a while watching Blackfire sleep and thinking. I can't tell her. I'm going to have to work around Blackfire on this one. I know, tomorrow I'll look for this Grayson guy and convince him to sell me the deed to the house back. I still have Blackfire's jewels and she won't ever know a thing. Yeah that's what I'll do.

He didn't feel sleepy so he lied in bed planning different scenarios on what would happen tomorrow. And when the dinner party idea popped in his head that didn't help much either, he hated dinner parties he had to stand there all night pretending to actually like the people who were at his house.

"Oh well." he sighed and soon found sleep peacefully.
