Trip to Hawaii
It was morning, and Robin opened his eyes. He looked at the clock and saw that it was only 6:30 in the morning. He looked over at Starfire's bed and saw that she wasn't there. Then he looked at the front end of his bed, where he saw Starfire, all dressed and ready to go. "Let us go spend the day together please," she said. Robin let out a big yawn. "Star, it's only 6:30," he said. "But I wish to see the many wonders of Hawaii, and as your people say, 'the early bird gets the worm'," said Starfire. Robin raised an eyebrow. "I don't think that expression fits in this case, Starfire," he said. (AN: I really don't know if it does or not. I just thought it'd be funny to have Star say something like that) "Well, may we still go now please?" she asked. "But Starfire…" "Please, Robin." She gave him the sad face again. "Oh no," he thought. "Not again."
Of course, as one would probably expect in this case, Robin gave in. He got up and got ready to go out. "So where should we go Starfire?" asked Robin. "Maybe we should just have a look around until we see something that might be most enjoyable to us," she said. Robin smiled. "Sounds good to me," he said. Before they left, Robin knocked on Beast Boy and Raven's door. Beast Boy answered the door. He looked like he hadn't slept very well. "Dude, do you know what time it is?" he asked. "Sorry," said Robin. "Why do you look so tired?" Beast Boy let out a yawn and then spoke. "Remember when we left Cy at the buffet? He came back around 2 in the morning, so that woke me up. Then he knocked on the door asking for antacids." Robin just put on an annoyed look. "You've got to be kidding me," he said. "Did he overeat again?" Beast Boy nodded. "So then I was kept up for another few hours. I just got back to sleep an hour ago." Robin raised an eyebrow. "Did Raven hear any of this?" he asked.
"Yeah," said Beast Boy. "I had earplugs, but she forgot to pack hers, so I just gave her mine." Now Robin had a look of disgust on his face. Beast Boy glared at him. "Hey, they were unused earplugs," he said. "I already know Raven wouldn't want to use something that was already in my ears. So what's up?" "We just wanted to tell you that we're going out now," said Robin. "We'll be back a little later." Then he lowered his voice so Starfire couldn't hear. "And think about taking my advice on asking Raven to do something with you," he said. Beast Boy gave him a thumbs up. "No prob," he said. Then Robin and Starfire left. After Beast Boy closed the door, he walked back over to his bed, got in, and fell asleep. On the way out, Robin asked the women at the front desk if there were any nearby attractions.
"There's a nearby amusement park," she said. "It's only a 6 minute walk from here." "Thank you," said Robin. As soon as they were out the door, they headed straight for the amusement park. "Whoa," said Robin. "It looks like so much fun!" screamed Starfire. They looked around and saw so many things to do. There was a merry-go-round (for Starfire. Come on, you know she's gonna want to go on that), a funhouse, a Ferris wheel, a spook house, and at least five roller coasters. They also saw many food stands with plenty of Hawaiian food, as well as other types of food too. "May we please go on the merry-go-round?" asked Starfire. "Uh, Star, don't you want to go on something else?" asked Robin. Of course, what did Starfire do? That's right, she used the sad face. "Maybe I could just stand by and watch," thought Robin. Unfortunately, Starfire grabbed him and brought him on.
On the merry-go-round, Starfire was having the time of her life. If Robin was 5 years old, he would be too. But since he wasn't, he had to endure many laughs directed towards him by some of the locals. Robin's face was so red, it was redder than the vest on his uniform. The worst part was that Starfire made him go on the merry-go-round 8 more times. That meant 8 more rounds of laughs. Finally, Starfire was done with the merry-go-round. "Glad that's over," thought Robin. "Come Robin!" said the excited alien. "Let us go on a roller coaster!" Starfire grabbed Robin and pulled him over to a roller coaster called "Loops of Terror" (sorry about the corny name). This roller coaster had at least 10 loops and the ride lasted for at least 8 minutes. Robin had to admit, this was scaring him a bit. "Uh, you sure about this Star?" he asked. "Come on!" she screamed, then she pulled Robin into the line.
It was only a 2 minute wait. Starfire chose the front 2 seats. Now Robin was panicking. "Star, I should probably tell you, I'm not very comfortable with roller coasters," he said. Starfire's eyes widened. She never would've thought that Robin would have no fear against so many things far more terrible than a simple roller coaster ride, but fall apart as soon as he gets on a roller coaster. "I did not know you were afraid of roller coasters," she said. "I'm not, I'm just…….aw, who am I kidding, I'm terrified of roller coasters," said Robin. "Why? They're supposed to be fun and enjoyable," said Starfire. "When I was about 6, there was a roller coaster accident at a carnival near my home," said Robin. "I've been afraid of them ever since." Starfire looked confused. "But what about that day at the carnival when my sister came?" she asked. "I didn't go on any roller coasters that day Star," said Robin. "And the Ferris wheel really isn't a roller coaster." Suddenly, he felt the coaster move. "Hooray! It's starting!" said Starfire. "Uh-oh," was all Robin had to say.
Here it is, Ch. 16. The day at the park will continue in 17. Hope this is good.
