(I'm on a roll! My ideas are bursting out of my head :O Squee! And just so you guys know. This story's main plot is BBStar but that doesn't mean I'll just be focusing on those two characters. / There will be fluff with them but I'm also focusing on other characters. Anyway…)
Chapter 8
Break Apart Her Heart
"Oh god. I look terrible." Garfield commented as he looked at himself in the mirror. He'd been trying his hardest not to cry…
And in the end, he still looked like someone who's been dragged through ten thousand thorny bushes.
His hair was messy, his green skin looked greasy and his eyes made him look like he was a flipping panda.
He decided he really needed to sleep more after today, today of all days.
The day he'd see Koriand'r Of Tamaran, his beautiful princess, his life, dream and hope.
Garfield scratched his head thoughtfully, as he watched himself in the mirror and chuckled darkly to himself. When had he turned into such a hopeless, corny, lost romantic freak?
Right, ever since she left him in the pouring rain, his throat dry, tears blending in with the rain as they streamed down his face.
How could two days hurt him in both different ways?
.XIfYou'reNotTheOneX.
He remembered that day too, watching Garfield Logan was one of the daily things he did. He wasn't stalking him, he was observing him. Because Garfield Logan's expressions were fascinating, as was his emotions, the way his body reacted to certain things that he didn't understand.
He watched Garfield Logan because he loved his friend.
"What are you doing?" Came the cold voice of Revan.
He ignored his master, he wasn't in the mood for Revan's shit about not trying to do anything.
"It doesn't matter. I already know what you are doing." Revan announced to no one, before sitting down next to his apprentice, cross legged.
"And what's that?" His apprentice snorted, obviously amused at his master's concern.
"You are remembering." Revan replied, putting a hand through his red streaked hair.
He saw his apprentice's shoulders slump as he mentioned the word remembering, as if he couldn't bare to think of the word.
"I remember…Shutting my eyes." His apprentice replied hesitantly, searching for the right words that was needed to explain what he meant.
"Yes?" Revan said calmly, his gaze never leaving his apprentice's cheek.
"Then…Nothing. Apart from waking up, with you in my face." His apprentice laughed suddenly, but a hollow one.
Revan sighed, trying his hardest not to let his disappointment show in the sigh, as he looked at his apprentice's bare chest. The scars were still there, and that wound…The wound on his side…It had got bigger, it was mainly his fault though. It was also his fault that this kid was with him now.
"I know you don't like me." Revan began, looking down on the apartment of Garfield Logan. "But I'm doing this for your own good."
A grunt came from his apprentice.
"You can't just go running back into thier lives." Revan continued, patting his apprentice lightly on the back.
"Why can't I?" His apprentice asked, his walls finally collapsing at the comforting touch.
"Because it'd hurt them. Especially her. And you'll get hurt." Revan explained slowly, his eyes softening as a tear ran down his apprentice's cheek.
"I don't care." His apprentice muttered softly. "It's not fair. I want my revenge now!"
Revan removed his hand from his apprentice's back, his eyes stitched on the wound again.
"You'll get it soon enough. That's if, as you said. Garfield doesn't kill him." Revan merely replied as he dug into his pocket for something.
"Hn. I want to be with her." His apprentice grunted again, placing his head in his hands as he watched Garfield Logan silently.
"It'd be wrong. And you know that." Revan answered, his gaze also on Garfield Logan.
"I know that! Don't you think I think about it every night? It drives me insane! Every night, staying awake. Because I know if I ever see her, I can't touch her. Because the smell of dead flesh! That's me! Dead flesh!" His apprentice yelled at him, his teeth bared angrily at him.
Revan just smiled, brushing the stray bits of hair out of his eyes.
"You do not smell of dead flesh. You just know that it would be wrong because you and her are at two different sides of the world. Or…Two different universes."
His apprentice looked away from him, he's eyes still looking through the window of Garfield Logan's.
"Tonight." He said, his gaze never wavering. "Tonight he shall know the truth."
Revan placed a hand on his temples and rubbed them softly.
"Whatever you say…"
.XIfYou'reNotTheOneX.
So this was it, he Garfield Logan looked at himself in the mirror and grinned at himself.
"I actually look good." Scratching his chin, he peered even closer at the mirror, "in fact, I find myself quite sexy."
He was wearing a black tank top, with the words: 'You can't see me!' printed across in pink letters. He also wore what looked like tracksuit bottoms, but was in fact leather chaps that split at the bottom to show his ankles. Also accompanying his leather chaps was his dark Jordan shoes, with little tofu figures printed across the laces and soles. Whenever he walked, the tofu figures would light up - showing bright smiles on the tofu faces.
His green spiky hair, even spikier in different places, making him look like he had just come out of a hospital after being electrified. His one fang still dangling from his ear as he walked out of his apartment.
The street's of Jump City appeared as he walked towards The Foxes nightclub, it wasn't so far away. In fact, just right. He wouldn't get tired if he walked there - that was an added bonus as far as he was concerned. Him being hyper, meant him being funny, him being funny meant Starfire laughing, Starfire laughing meant he was happy.
Grinning happily at the thought, he made sure his feet walked faster. He was desperate to see her, to see how she had changed. He wanted to see her!
Yelping with happiness, Garfield ran down the streets, not caring who saw him as he tried his hardest not to scream with the cheerfulness that was deep inside of him.
Damn it! He had to get there faster! It seemed like everything was taking forever! He'd already waited for ten years to see her and he wouldn't miss an opportunity like this, ever!
So he was so glad to see that she was there when he came panting towards her.
That happiness slowly turned into jealousy as he looked up to see a blonde haired man wrapping his arms around her shoulders protectively, as if that anyone who came near her would steal her away from him.
Narrowing his eyes, he ignored the look he received from the blonde prat as he waved his hand at Koriand'r.
"Hey Kori! Long time no see!" He yelled, literally jumping at her and wrapping his arms around her waist in a tight hug.
He was pleased to see the man back off and cross his arms in annoyance at him, as he hugged Starfire tightly.
Koriand'r giggled slightly, then remembered what she was supposed to be doing and gently pried away from Garfield's strong grip around her waist.
"It is pleasant to see you too friend Garfield!" She beamed, a small blush coming on her cheeks as she tried her hardest not to look at his handsome face.
Garfield smirked at her, seeing that she had indeed gone red by just looking at his face and then looking back onto the ground again. He also smirked at the reaction he got from the blonde haired prat when he said those five words…
"You still look beautiful Kori!" He exclaimed, rubbing the back of his head bashfully.
"Hey! Who are you anyway?" The blonde prat stepped forward, in front of Starfire, covering the beautiful princess from his eyes.
She was indeed beautiful. Oh, she was more than beautiful. She was absolutely gorgeous.
Her tanned skin, or what he could see of it, brighter than ever, her eyes radiated with happiness as he bounced towards her, her eyes that used to be just an emerald green was now replaced with her bright eyes that she only used when she was mad. Showing no iris, just natural green.
Her hair shone brightly, a bright burgundy that made fires look dull - tangled up everywhere, making it look knotty, but really she looked as beautiful as the day he saw her. He noticed that her hair was kind of like an afro, but curly and straight at the same time.
What made him drool the most was the way she was dressed, it looked like she a swimming costume on at first, however realization slowly sunk in as he realized that it was in fact a costume indeed. Other than, not just an ordinary one. A purple dress that showed her back, exposing her purple bra. It also exposed her hips, the only real things covered was her breasts, bottom and her lower region, not including her thighs.
Realizing that he was being talked to by the blonde prat. He looked up, trying his hardest NOT to look at Koriand'r legs…
"I'm Garfield Logan. The sexiest guy alive. How about you?" He smirked as he saw the blonde prat twitch at his name.
"Well, Garfield Logan. Would you mind not hugging my girlfriend? People might think you was trying to take her away from me." The blonde prat replied, his eyebrow arched. "And as for my name. I'm Harry Anderson."
Gar just rolled his eyes at the name. He officially hated anyone called Anderson, so it wasn't really no surprise to him to know that the blonde prat had the same name as the other blonde prat he taught at school.
He tilted his head to one side, giving the blonde prat a fake smile before tilting his head back to it's normal position.
"Steal Koriand'r? Why, I never knew she felt for me that way." He simply shrugged before walking around Harry to lean against the club's wall beside Koriand'r.
"Where's Dick?" He asked the alien, a faint smile on his face as she looked at him, her tongue just peeping out of her lips.
"He said I should wait outside for you, seeming as you are here. We can go inside to our private area." Pushing herself off the wall, she uncertainly linked arms with Harry.
"Come." She beckoned, as Harry escorted her inside.
He followed them both, his eyes dark with hatred towards the blonde idiot that was holding onto Koriand'r tightly, as if he's life depended on it.
Although, he did lighten up when Koriand'r quickly turned her head from behind her shoulder.
Giving her a wink, he sped up, trying to get close to the pair so he could talk to her from behind.
However, she just gave him a sad little smile before returning her head next to Harry's as they walked into the private booth.
"Gar!" Came a cry as arms flew around his neck, dragging him to the floor as he fell on top of a blonde girl with blue eyes and slightly tanned skin.
Looking up, he's eyes widened with happiness.
"Terra!" He called, wrapping his arms around her, squeezing her tightly as he tried to get up whilst Terra was still hanging around his neck.
Meanwhile, Koriand'r looked at this scene with a bitter taste on her tongue. Why? She knew the exact reason why. Garfield Logan was single. And if Terra decided to leave Aqualad to be with Gar, then Koriand'r had a feeling that she would most likely rip Terra's head off. (A/N: Don't flame me BBTerra fans! I like BBTerra too XD)
She knew very well that Harry was watching her silently, she also knew that Garfield had been drooling at the sight of her. She also knew that she was getting very hot just looking at him.
"Oh my klefzelch…Garfield…" She thought, her eyes looking at his most private places as he slowly got out of Terra's grip.
"Babe, I'm just going to go have a dance. I'll see you later okay?" Harry whispered into her ear.
Giving him a curt nod, she was glad to be out of his grip. Once she saw that he was gone from the booth, she sat down next to the rest of the Titans. She also saw that even the likes of Jericho was here, along with Argent and Hotspot.
"So guys! How's everyone been?" Gar yelled, his hands behind his head, beaming as Koriand'r took a seat next to him.
"Gar, could you ever be louder? The music's already killing my head." Commented Raven, her violet eyes also casting glances at everyone in the booth.
He chuckled, scratching his head warily.
"Sorry Raven, forgot that you don't like noise."
"Back onto the subject friends, how have you all been?" Starfire interjected, showing off her radiant smile.
"We've been alright Star, although we haven't seen you forever Kori. Where have you been lately?" Dick asked, his head swimming with questions.
For a brief second, Garfield could have swore that Kori's smile had wavered, except before he could try to figure out what was upsetting her, the smile had been put back in it's position.
For what seemed forever, they all talked about feelings, pasts, love lives and how they were getting on without trying to stop the world from ending. (In which Raven found it hard to contain her laughter. She showed this by throwing random stuff at Garfield, the one who had brought this ridiculous joke up.)
However, by the end of it. Garfield was left alone with Koriand'r as they others went to go get a drink - Raven making sure that Victor had purposely locked the booth until they came back.
The silence that followed made even him stand on edge as he watched Koriand'r look at him quietly.
"Uh, so…You didn't answer my question on MSN." He found himself saying, his hand squeezing Kori's to make sure she wouldn't leave.
Koriand'r looked away, her cheeks already red from how she kept looking at Garfield, she remembered what he had said for her to call him.
"My sexy lord and master."
"Please Garfield, you are making this hard for me." She tried her hardest not to break down sweating, the gaze he gave her. It was unsettling, he was making her so hot…
"Koriand'r, please. Call me your gorftog. Your little gorftog. Remember that Koriand'r?" He pleaded, his hand squeezing hers tighter.
Koriand'r squeezed her eyes shut, her hand gripping his so tightly it was as if she was about to give birth.
"Gorftog…Do not do this." She begged, her body radiating heat so immense that she felt like she was going to burst.
Before he could stop himself, he placed his lips to her neck, suckling her skin softly, so softly, that she gasped and whined in pleasure as his tongue hit her skin.
Then, realizing who the hell she was, Kori pulled away, tears welled up in her eyes as she moved her neck away.
"I'm sorry Kori! I didn't know what came over me." Garfield desperately called out, his eyes searching for the forgiveness in hers.
"It's fine Garfield…I-" She was about to finish her sentence, until Harry came in, along with Cyborg and the others.
A devious look was spread on Harry's face, taking Koriand'r by the hand, he dragged her in the middle of the booth room.
And before anyone knew what was happening, Harry was talking.
"Starfire Of Tamaran, will you be my wife?"
Garfield felt like he'd ran into a brick wall. Wife? Starfire? Tamaran? WHAT?
Koriand'r looked across the room, nervously gulping as she saw everyone's stares - most of them were shaking their heads, but the few others - Argent and Hotspot - was clapping excitedly.
Then her gaze fell on him.
Koriand'r closed her eyes, turning back to Harry, a sad but very much fake smile pasted on her face.
"Yes, I do."
Garfield rushed out of the room, not bothering to hide that he was pissed off at everyone.
He felt like his heart was breaking, the kiss he'd just given her. Didn't it mean anything? The way she had been looking at him, like she wanted to pounce on him and fuck his brains out.
Whoa, okay, that was a little over the top.
Anyway, he felt like he'd kill anyone who tried to stop him, as he climbed on the clubs roof, silently sobbing as the loud music filled his ears.
Meanwhile, Starfire was being congratulated by everyone in the room. Although her smile was on her face, and her eyes full of fake happiness.
She was thinking of someone else entirely…
"Garfield…"
Back on the roof, Garfield was shouting.
"FUCK YOU WORLD. Why the hell do you hate me? Is it something I did? Is it because of Colad? Because Colad died? If it is? THEN GO TO HELL COLAD." He sobbed, falling to his knees as he stared at the full moon. He knew he didn't hate Colad. He was just so desperate for something good that would happen in his life.
"Been there, done that." Came a reply from behind of him.
Turning around quickly, Garfield Logan paled.
