"Friend Cyborg!" Starfire screamed, huddling closer to the ceiling. "Robin! Help!"

"Cyborg!" Robin bellowed. "Stop! Leave Star alone!"

"I'm in loooooooooooooooooove with you!" Cyborg sang. "Yes I loooooooooove you!" I covered my ears and scampered back to my room.

Okay, what were you thinking? My conscience demanded in an exhausted tone.

'I was thinking that if BB 'fell' for Raven, and then KF would 'fall' for Jinx, everything would be fine.'

That's a good answer…

'You're no help.'


I flopped down on the bed.

When I dared to come out of the room, I heard Cyborg and Robin arguing in the hallway. I looked over at the clock.

10:53. I must've fallen asleep.

I turned my attention back to Cyborg and Robin.

"How can you love Star?!"

"She's drop-dead gorgeous! How can I not love her?!"

"Cy, you've know for a long time now that I've had feelings for Starfire! You can't just expect her to love you!"

"Big deal! I'm bigger, better, stronger and smarter!"

"And I'm her BEST FRIEND!"

"And it's going to STAY THAT WAY FOREVER!" Robin's expression softened a bit.

"Really?"

"Yeah…Because I'll be her BOYFRIEND!" Robin fumed.

My jaw dropped. This wasn't supposed to happen! First Jinx and Bumblebee, now Robin and Cyborg?! I slipped back into my room and hugged the cover close to me…


I woke up the next morning-groggy; vaguely remembering Robin and Cyborg's….spat. I dressed and made my way to the main room, hoping I wasn't late.

When I got there, I was hoping I was.


The room was full of tension. Robin and Cyborg refused to speak to anyone, especially each other, Raven was stirring a cup of tea, occasionally giving Beast Boy a glance mixed with concern, sadness and affection, Starfire was floating near the ceiling, eating some…dish and hoping that Cyborg wouldn't get her there and Kid Flash was poking his "breakfast sandwich".

Jinx, had gone into a depression phase where she wouldn't come out of her room. Since we were concerned for her health, Raven, Starfire and I took turn giving Jinx her meals. But since Jinx refused to come out of her room, we had to leave the food outside her room and leave it there.


I, trying not to make a big entrance, or better yet, no entrance at all, quietly slipped over to the fridge and got an apple and sat down at the table.


It was rather quiet until Jinx poked her head in.

Starfire was the first to notice.

"Friend Jinx!"

Everyone turned their heads and stared blankly at the luck witch. I studied Jinx carefully.

Her pink hair was muddled and the areas around her eyes were red, assuming she had been crying for some time now; her uniform was wrinkled.

She greeted us with a rather quiet, "hi."

The tension grew tighter. I bit my lip.

"So….Jinx…..Are you feeling okay?" We turned our heads in the opposite direction; Jinx's eyes widened in surprise.

'This is good!' I thought. Because, the person who asked, who was concerned about Jinx, was Kid Flash.

Jinx nodded slowly.

"Uh-huh…" Kid Flash nodded curtly before resuming to poke his sandwich.

"Friend Jinx, would you like the food nourishment?" Starfire asked. Jinx nodded again and a bit of the tight tension went away.


Later, I talked to Kid Flash.

"So…..Can you explain what happen with Jinx back there?" I asked.

"…….She's my teammate," he answered at last. "It's my right to be concerned."

"Yeah, but……You just said she was just another girl." I smirked.

"Fine." Kid Flash admitted bitterly. "I was thinking….about what you said to me." My conscience did a happy dance.

Whoo-hoo! Maybe you don't suck at being cupid!

'Gee, thanks. But that's not good enough.'

What do you mean?

'I mean, that I have to find a way to get Kid Flash to snap out of this romantic delusion….Then Beast Boy.'

But, it looks like he's now genuinely concerned about her…

'I know, and that's what's bothering me.'


Oooo! Half-cliffy!

MWAHAHAHAHAHA! I left you with a half-cliffy! MWAHAHAHAHA! What will happen to Kid Flash and Jinx? What about Beast Boy? Will Cyborg and Robin be friends again? Will Bumblebee come back? What about Kole's part in less than a week? What about Raven and Starfire? What's bothering Anna? Will the next chapter be longer? And when will I stop asking these stupid questions? (lol) Stay tuned for the next update to find out!
