Starfire walked quickly through the Titans hallway, knowing Raven was behind her.
"Starfire..." Raven sighed, she caught up with her and rested a hand on Starfire's shoulder. Starfire stopped and abruptly turned to Raven, slowly.
"Y...yes, Raven?" She asked, sniffing slightly.
"Do you want to talk about it, Starfire?" She asked, quietly. Starfire's eyes finally met Raven's. Starfire gave a small smile and nodded her head slowly.
"Come on..." Raven replied, gently pulling Starfire into her room. Starfire glanced around Raven's room. It was dark and very blue. There were also many little statues and many, many books. She and Raven sat on Raven's blue bed and remained quiet for some time.
"Starfire. Tell me when your ready, okay?" Raven whispered, smiling slightly. Starfire gazed at her hands which were in her lap.
"It is just..." Starfire began, meeting Raven's eyes. Raven just sat and watched, not wanting to push her into talking about her feelings.
"Robin said he did not have the feelings. But you are supposed to possess feelings as such to be a uhm...boyfriend. Yes?" Starfire sighed. Raven looked at her for a minute.
"Starfire. He didn't mean it. It is just, the bad guys will exploit your relationship. They already did when you were just friends. Do you understand?" She replied.
"Oh. Then. Perhaps we should not be..." Starfire trailed off, looking at sad and she galnced back to her hands. Raven gasped knowing what she was about to say.
"Starfire. Are you serious? But..." She was cut off by Starfire.
"Do not worry, Raven. It will be the same as it used to. It is for the best. You are lucky that your relationship with Beastboy does not get tested in battle. Hmm. I believe I need the alone time. Please, Raven. Do not hate me for my actions. I believe we will be okay..." She stated.
"I could never hate you. As long as your sure, Starfire." She replied, walking over to the door with Starfie.
"Thank you, Raven. You are a good friend." She whispered, a smile plastered on her face. Starfire leaned forward and hugged Raven. Raven at first did not respond but soon hugged her back. Starfire then slipped from Raven's room to her own. Raven stood at the door for a while, listening to her emotions.
Happiness sat down trying to be upbeat. She was arguing with Sadness while concern paced Raven's mind.
"Oh! What if Starfire's plan fails!?" She feared, "there friendship will surely crumble!"
"There friendship has been through worse and has always prevailed." Said happiness.
"Well, I doubt it will prevail this time! You have seen how Starfire's emotion played!" Sadness growled.
"You would say that! Do you know nothing of the emotions!?" Sadness burst, squaring up to her.
"More than you do." Happiness hissed back, standing up and becoming centimetres away from Sadness' face, seething with rage.
"Enough!" Knowledge interupted, pushing them away from eachother, "Raven is stressed about her friends enough, she does not need her emotions arguing. Now, apoligize to eachother!"
Sadness and Happiness took a step towards eachother again. They both looked at the ground.
"I'm sorry and I'm sorry about questioning your power over your emotion." Sadness said.
"I am sorry too. Knowledge is right..." Happiness admitted. Happiness and Sadness hugged but both agreed they need to calm down a little more, seperating. Knowledge watched as both disappeared. She looked over at Concern who had watch the whole outburst.
"I believe your fears will become reality, Concern." Knowledge informed.
"But. What are we to do!?" She asked, gasping.
"Nothing. Robin and Starfire's reltionship and friendship will be rocky but they have a connection which can never break. Believe me. They will not become completely seperate..."
"How do you know such a thing?"
"I have hope."
Concern closed her eyes and tried to calm herself by meditating. Knowledge sighed and joined her.
"Besides. We have another issue at hand." She mumbled, suddenly knowing part of the furture.
"Which is?" Concern asked, opening her eyes.
"I'll give you a hint. She is blonde and has blue eyes..." Knowledge sighed.
"No..." Concern gasped. Knowledge nodded and sighed. Raven brought herself back to reality and shook herself from her trance. She slipped out of her room and pulled up her hood. [Blonde hair? Blue eyes? Who are they talking about?] Raven wondered completely unaware. She took placement in the Living room and gently began to meditate. "Azorath, metrion, zinthos..." She chanted, closing her eyes.
"HONEY! WE'RE HOME!" Beastboy yelled. Raven's eyes snapped open and she screamed, falling to the ground. Beastboy chuckled and ran over to her, helping her up.
"Heh. You okay?" Beastboy asked, sheepishly.
"Just peachy..." She groaned, glaring at him.
"Hey Rae." Cyborg greeted before turning the gamestation on. Beastboy dropped his hands from Raven suddenly, "Ooh! Dude! Add me to the players list!" He sqeauled. Raven wobbled but soon held herself up.
"Wow. I think you may be the best boyfriend ever, Beastboy..." She said, sarcastically.
"Oh. Sorry, Rae. Wanna play?" He asked. Raven shook her head slowly and massaged her temples, sighing. She floated into the kitchen, where Robin was. As she walked in, she froze. [Oh. I don't want to say anything. It is not my place...] She thought.
"Hey Raven." Robin greeted, grabbing a soda.
"Hi." She replied, blankly.
"Uh. D'you know where Star is?" He asked, smiling slightly. Raven remained silent whilst she quickly talked telepathically to Starfire.
[Do you want to talk to him?] Raven asked.
[No. Not yet. I still feel a little sad.] Starfire replied.
[What should I tell him?] Raven asked, noticing Robin raising an eyebrow to her.
[As much as it displeases me, lie to him.] Starfire replied.
[Alright.] Raven agreed.
"Oh. She's in her room." Raven blurted out.
"Ok. I'm gonna go talk to her..." Robin began.
"NO!" Raven told him.
"What?"
"You can't..."
"Why not?"
"Uh...She doesn't want to see anyone, not even you because she feels...sick..." Raven lied quickly. Robin shrugged and went and sat with the guys. Raven sighed and made contact with Starfire again.
[Are you sure about this? Really sure?] Raven questioned.
[Yes. Most certain. Do not worry, Raven. I believe in this...] Starfire said. Raven shrugged and returned to her thoughts.
[Blonde, blue eyes...Hmm...] Raven thought, truely trying to remember this description...
