Beautiful sky with only a few clouds on it, a lot of warm sunlight and a little wind gently moving tree crowns. Sunday, day like any other in Jump City. Almost everyone hanging out with their families and friends. Even criminals didn't show up to destroy this beautiful day. Meanwhile in the Titans Tower Beast Boy and Cyborg were preparing to the picnic. They both packed food including either tofu and meat. Eternal war about which food is better finally ended when Cyborg accidentally ate one of the tofu dishes and said that it's not so bad as he thought. Raven was meditating in her room and slowly preparing to the picnic. Starfire was choosing some cloths on this event. Robin stayed outside her room waiting. They were a couple for about 3 years since Batman helped them beat Slade and Robin was in coma. Starfire is 19, and Boy Wonder turned 20 just a few days ago. Starfire finally came out of her room so that Robin could finally see his beautiful princess. She looked at him a little surprised.

"Morning Star." He said cheerfully.

"Good Morning Robin!" She replied with a big smile on her face and immediately hugged him. She didn't see him yet this morning, because she slept after yesterday's movie night. "So... how long did you wait out here?" She said a little ashamed because her boyfriend had to wait.

"Well... Let's say that I could stay here and wait for the rest of my life if I had to." Robin smirked and then added. "And also... I just couldn't wake you up. You look so beautiful during the sleep." Their eyes stuck in staring at each other. After his words, her beautiful emerald eyes shone like a stars.

"Awwww... Robin, you are so cute." She said leaning toward his face to give him a kiss but he stopped her halfway across. Starfire looked at him confused. "Did I do something wrong?" She asked quietly slowly bending her head down.

"No Star... it's just... At first I wanted to apologize... I mean, we need to talk." She lifted her head up to look at him even more confused than before.

"About what? You did not do any bad thing to me... I do not understand." A lot of thoughts went through her mind, even the one that Robin would probably break up with her. His words and the tone of his voice came out all wrong. When she thought about this, a few tears fought their way through her emerald eyes. Robin noticed it immediately and hugged her tightly.

"No, no, no, no, no... Starfire I know what're you thinking and that's not it. My love to you is endless and nothing could change my feelings. I'll be always yours. I love you and always will... Please don't cry, don't cry. I didn't mean to make you sad. I'm so sorry..." He said trying to cheer Starfire up.

"Well... So what is the reason of your apologies?" She calmed down and raised her eyebrow questioningly. He closed his eyes in a shame and stepped a  little bit away from her. Starfire began to worry. Suddenly he kneeled just before her in the hallway. She was shocked when it happened.

"Starfire... I want to apologize you for being such an idiot... Lately I didn't spend as much time with you as I should've... I'm still getting used to having a girlfriend and quite frankly... I'm keep forgetting how miserable my life would be without you. I ignored your feelings and that's why I'm sorry."

Starfire offered her hand to him so that he could stand up. She smiled at him and moved closer embracing his neck. He couldn't look into her eyes.

"Robin... I understand. We are heroes and sometimes there is no time for... us. You have your  duties and so do I. Protecting innocent is what we sworn to do as Titans. You are the leader so your focus must be doubled, but you do not have to apologize me. I am really happy being your girlfriend and nothing could change that. I love you..."
