I'm sorry this chapter is so short, but here's a really brief introduction to the hooplah that's going to be happening later in this story! Thanks for reading! R/R.~ Love, Sam.
PS. Hint - This story is based off a play. For all those who were curious about where the basic plot came from.

Cupid
"If we can do this, Cupid is no longer an archer; his glory shall be ours, for we are the only love gods."
It was late by the time they all got back to the tower. Raven and Beast Boy had immediately retired to their rooms. But the remaining titans decided to stay in the kitchen, sipping hot chocolate and eating left over cake.
Robin was in a considerably better mood. Cyborg told him about Star's thoughts about marriage and the Boy Wonder had brightened immediately. The love of his life wanted to marry him. Robin had been almost as hyper as Beast Boy on the way back. Almost. Still, he had visibly lightened up. Especially when he got to spend some time with his girlfriend after leaving her to go to Gotham.
Now they were sharing a chair, and Star was sitting on his lap, sipping her mug of hot chocolate. She kept him from reaching his cake, but instead, she'd feed him herself. that made the Boy Wonder happy enough to ignore Cyborg's occasional snickering.
"I can't believe you two are really thinking about tyin' the knot."
Cyborg was the first to break their comfortable silence, and he was met with a blush from Robin and a bright smile from Starfire.
"Well, technically, I've been thinking about it for a while." Robin smirked as Star fed him another piece of cake.
Cyborg shrugged, finishing off the last of his hot chocolate. "I mean, the first titan couple to get married. To be honest man, I thought BB would pop the question first."
All of a sudden, an uncomfortable silence blanketed the three. Cyborg had spoken about something that nobody had dared to bring up: The failed relationship between Beast Boy and Raven.
"I too, believed that friend beast Boy would propose to Raven…" Starfire's soft voice eased the trio back into conversation.
"I thought so too, Star." Robin agreed with her, turning down an offer of cake for the first time that night.
"And it is obvious that they are still doing the liking of each other!"
"Dude, you noticed that too?" Cyborg's eyes immediately lit up, and the mood was brightened.
"Noticed what?"
"For the world's greatest detective, you are so dense. Can't you tell they still like each other?"
"Who?"
Starfire let out a frustrated groan and Cyborg only buried his face in his hands.
"Raven and Beast Boy, man where have you been?"
"If you didn't notice, on a top secret mission for Batman!"
"Enough!" The two men froze to look up at Starfire, who had removed herself from Robin's lap and now stood at the head of the table. "We must do the setting up of friends Beast Boy and Raven!"
"How are we even going to do that?"
"Do not worry, I have a plan." And with a knowing look in her eyes that the two boys had never seen before, Starfire flipped her fiery red hair over her shoulder and floated happily to Robin's room.
