A short oneshot about Cassie and Jaime that I wrote a long time ago on my tumblr. A wonderbeetle request by one of my friends.

The way people would catch him looking at her, glancing at the Wonder Girl every so often just to get a glimpse of her. The way she wouldn't look at him funny when he spoke to the Scarab that was embedded on his back. Everything about her was turning into something wonderful.

She was the Wonder Girl, after all.

And he was just the Blue Beetle, a boy chosen by some beetle on his way home.

He was just a boy that was in the right place at the wrong time.

She was just a girl who…who was wonderful.

Oh god, he really needed to stop using that word for her. She needed a better word to fit her personality, because, let's face it, wonderful just wouldn't fit Cassie, the girl who was the partner of Wonder Woman, who could punch a shark in the nose and come up unscratched.

Cassie was an extraordinary girl, that was for sure. And, Jaime decided, that extraordinary fit her better than wonderful.
