A/N: Final companion to Selfish.
Last Chance
Starfire found herself wandering towards her ex-boyfriend's room, though she promised herself she'd stay away from him. She was still mad, but her head and heart were in a battle.
She had decided perhaps she should try to talk to him and sort through there issue. Even if they found they weren't truly compatible enough to be a couple, she didn't want to lose him as a boyfriend and a friend.
His door was opened slightly, and she hesitantly peeked through the crack.
Robin was intent on a piece of paper in front of him, oblivious to her presence.
Starfire pulled away from the door and ran to her room, unshed tears stinging her eyes.
"He has given up and returned to his work. He does not even care anymore. I suppose I knew this would happen all along," she sighed, "I suppose even our friendship is of that little importance to him."
I slight rap on her door interrupted her thoughts. She groaned, really not in the mood to talk to anyone. She glanced around and saw no one. She was about to dismiss it as a prank pulled by Beastboy when a slip of paper caught her eye.
It was addressed to her…from Robin.
She gingerly opened it, not quite sure what to expect.
It was… a poem?
Twinkle Twinkle Princess Star
I know that I went way too far
I know I'm stupid, I don't deserve you
You can do much better, true
But I am so, so sorry for my mistake
At night my regret keeps me awake
I have no idea what led
Me to say what I said
I didn't mean any of it
Guess I'm just a stubborn twit
You're selfless, kind, perfect as far as I can see
You're everything I wish I could be
I was wrong, you were right
I really hate it when we fight
Please give me just one more chance to prove
How much I really care about you
I don't want to lose you, Kori
Lo siento, Je suis désolée, I'm sorry
I love you, though I don't show it well
I guess I just assumed you could tell
I'm practically begging on my knees
I'm asking you pretty please
And I know my poem is kind of crappy
But like about girls, it's something Bats didn't teach me
Starfire smiled as she finished reading the note. Then, she cleared her face of emotion and headed for Robin's room once more.
She had barely knocked before the door slid open, revealing a short teen dressed like a traffic light.
"Oh, hey Starfire! What's up?" he squeaked nervously.
She answered by holding up the note.
"Right, and, um, so?" he said blushing like crazy.
"It is against my better judgment, but I shall grant you one last chance. I warn you Robin, this is the very last chance," she said evenly.
Her poker face faded to reveal a small smile, which Robin returned.
"By the way, I love you too," she added, making Robin's face flush as red as her hair.
Around the corner, a certain green changeling was grinning.
"He totally stole my idea."
A/N: Yeah, I know it's OOC, but I wanted to finish this so I could go back to RobStar stories, and they're hard to write when Star won't talk to Robin so…yeah.
