Trip to Hawaii
In Robin and Starfire's room, Robin was sitting down watching a movie while Starfire was playing with Silkie. Robin finally spoke. "Can I ask you something Starfire?" Starfire stopped playing with Silkie and looked at Robin. "What troubles you, Robin?" she asked. "Nothing," he replied. "I just wanted to know if you'd do something with me tomorrow." Starfire paid close attention to what he had to say. "What did you have in mind?" she asked. Robin all of a sudden froze. He just realized that he had just asked her to do something with him and he hadn't thought about what to do. "How the heck could I ask her if she wanted to do something and not have something in mind?" he asked himself in his head. "God, I'm an idiot." Starfire was still waiting for an answer.
"Well," Robin began. "I was thinking maybe we could spend the day together. Just you and me." Starfire felt extreme happiness fill up inside of her. "Really? Just us? I would be most delighted to spend the day with you Robin!" "Seriously?" he asked. "Great, then!" Starfire started yawning. "I believe I shall take a shower and go to bed," said Starfire. "Alright then. I'll just sit here and watch some movies," said Robin. Starfire put Silkie to bed, grabbed a change of clothes, went into the bathroom and started her shower. Meanwhile, Robin was flipping throught channels and gathering his thoughts about what he and Starfire would do the next day. Then he started thinking about something else.
"Starfire sure sounded excited that we're spending the day together tomorrow," he thought. "I know she usually does that with everyone, but she just seems much more excited when it's just with me. I wonder if she likes me. I mean more than a friend. I hope she does. Wait! I can't think like that. We're just friends. Nothing else." Just then, Robin found a romance movie. It was showing two people kissing each other. Usually, Robin would've just changed it to find something cool on TV, but for some reason, he just decided to leave it there. He started to picture himself and a certain alien in the same position as the two people on TV. "Ah! Bad mind! Bad mind!" said Robin. He tried to stop imagining it, but it just wouldn't work. What finally broke him from his imagination and self-scolding was hearing Starfire come out of the bathroom.
"Is everything alright, Robin?" she asked. "I heard you scream something about your mind being bad. Does it need to be punished?" Robin thought it did. "No Star. I'm alright. I'm just dealing with some things in my head right now." Starfire stared at him. "What kind of things?" she asked. "Don't worry about it, it's nothing serious," he replied. "Okay then," said Starfire. She walked over to her bed and went under the covers. After letting out a big yawn, she said, "Good night Robin. Pleasant slorvacks." He smiled at her and said, "Good night Starfire." Starfire shut her eyes and drifted off to sleep. While Starfire slept, Robin went back to scolding himself. "I really need to stop thinking about Starfire like this. If I don't get a hold of myself, I might just do something stupid." Robin took a few more minutes to get the thoughts out of his head, but didn't prevail. "I'm just going to have to admit it," he said. "There's been a whole bunch of times I've tried denying, but now it's just no use: I love her. I love Starfire."
Suddenly, he heard a knock at the door. He opened the door real quietly so that he wouldn't wake up Starfire. He saw Beast Boy standing right in front of his room. "Hey BB. Do you need something?" he asked. "Rob, I need to talk to you about something. Can I talk to you out here?" "Uh, sure." He walked outside and shut the door. "So what's on your mind?" asked Robin. "I've got a little bit of a problem that I thought maybe you could help me with," he said. "Well what is it?" asked Robin. BB just twiddled his thumbs for a little bit, then spoke up. "I'm in love with Raven."
So sorry I took so long to update. I had a writer's block disease and couldn't figure out what the hell to write for this chapter. Plus I have tons of homework and I have work at Albertson's. Review pleez, and if anyone has seen the movie wedding crashers and read Ch. 10., I'm still waiting for suggestions on who should be who. Until then, I'll be working on Ch. 12.
