He couldn't help the grin from tickling his cheeks when he sped to his cousin's house. He liked kids, especially his little cousins. A pretty, hot, blonde woman opened the door. (In his opinion blondes were the cutest.) She smirked at him and called over her shoulder "Babe, the nanny's here!"
The red headed standing at the door screwed his face at the nickname. "Hey! I'm not a nanny! I'm seventeen and I have superpowers not forgetting great looks, how can you call me a nanny? Have some decency here."
Satisfied by his rushed reaction the blonde looked inside the house again "Wallace West what is taking you so long!" This time she yelled.
"Coming" a muffled grunt from inside a room barely heard. The retired speedster appeared with two squirming creatures around him. One was a little girl wearing two pony tails that made her wavy, red hair puffy and a navy blue overall with visible rainbow stains. She had a chubby hand covering half of her father's mouth and was clinging to him by his hair.
The other one was a thin boy, the same height of the girl but he had blonde hair and green eyes. Light freckles adorned his cheeks as he clung to his dad's leg with all his limbs while trying to hide his flushed face in it. "Help?" Wally said finally. Artemis simply snaked her arms around the little girl's tummy and placed her on the floor.
She gently brushed her son's hair from his forehead and kneeled until she was eye level. He tightened his hold smiling against his dad's thighs. Raising her gray stormy orbs to her husband she spoke seriously "I'm afraid this one cannot be removed from your leg."
Wally had caught up with his wife's plan. She briefly glanced to the girl who had caught up before his dad had. The small toddler was unaware of the silent talk going on between his family and kept his eyes closed tightly. The next second everyone was tickle torturing the poor kid who erupted in mad laughter. The commotion made him let go of his dad leg and curled in a ball tears falling out from his laughter. He kept laughing until Bart intervened "Is it always this way with you two." Bart patted the twins' head and then smirked to their parents.
"Well, now that that's done, you can leave don't worry, I take care, heck, give my life for them if anything, not that I'm saying anything will happen, no, but just in case I love you guys. I'm honored I was the first option and all…" His speed talking was finally stopped by Wally who said "Actually you were the last resort, no offence, but after losing the kids in wall mart…"
"Hey!" Bart said in a high pitch tone "We had fun, ate ice cream, and I found them." "We found you cous'" Iris commented sassily. Artemis narrowed her eyes at him. Finally sighing she accepted his 'nanny' abilities and dragged Wally out. Her husband was still skeptic about leaving his cousin, again, with his six year old babies. He used his index and middle finger to do the classic 'I'm watching you' motion.
Bart simply pushed him further out the door waving frantically with his extended arm. The twins took a moment to look at Bart and then copied his movements with equal enthusiasm. "Bye daddy and mommy!" The young girl yelled exited that her tongue had managed not to twist while talking as it always did.
"Bye Iris" Artemis said proud by her daughter's words. The little boy still hadn't managed to talk too much but he smiled at his mom and ran to hug her. She gave a surprised huff but hugged him back. Artemis stared into his bright green orbs resembling his father's "Now you take care of your sister Jay." He nodded and she kissed his forehead. Giving Bart one last warning look she turned. She was about to keep walking when she remembered something important. "Oh, and Bart I almost forgot, Damian, Mar'i, Caleb and Emma were invited to play so…"
The redheaded who had been grinning gleefully felt his smile drop. He was about to retort, but Artemis and Wally were already on the car on their way to their 'trip'. "So not crash" He sighed.
He gently guided the twins inside their home. A peculiar shadow sat at the sofa. Bart merely surprised (not creped out or on the verge of squealing) placed himself in front of the kids in a protective older brother way. Iris raised an eyebrow obviously unaware of the stranger's presence.
The dull thump of the door closing was heard behind the group and finally a squeal was released. "Hi speedy" A creepy voice whispered making the teen's hair stand and visually shiver. A feminine chuckle was heard. "Boy, it's funnier with you out than it was with Uncle Wally." "Aunty Lian!" Iris yelled tackling the redheaded girl with a bear hug.
Jay seemed uninterested in the new visitors and shuffled his way to the kitchen. "Where's my favorite niece." The feline girl said brushing strands of the little girl's messy bangs. Her voice was playful and she seemed to get along perfectly with Iris "Not you." Bart sighed tiredly throwing his body on the couch. Lian glared at the speedster but merely pushed him afar to make space for herself on the couch sitting Iris on her lap. Bart had already made himself comfortable hoping to ignore his torturer. His feet carelessly sat on the coffee table, his head dropped back making his Adam's apple noticeable.
Lian watched him for a moment before smirking. She clicked her fingers making a 'tsk' sound with her teeth faking that she remembered something important. "I forgot to tell you…" He turned his head clearly peeved by her body language. "Artemis invited me." He narrowed his eyes and then turned his head back again closing his eyes in attempt to ignore the thirteen year old. "So I decided to invite a few friends of yours to start this party you know"
That got his attention. Bart stared wide eyed at the revelation. "And… um… Cissie said she was looking forward to it. Thought you wanted to know." She finished grinning, her eyes sparkling with malicious intentions. She marveled in the way his Adam's apple bobbed as he gulped "You did what!" He finally choked. His mind could only picture his head nailed to a wall after Artemis found out.
10 minutes later
Tim Drake tried, and failed, to concentrate on the videogame. He didn't know what to call this situation. Confused didn't even start to describe how he felt. He received a strange call, inviting him to his friend's house. He admits the old saying curiosity killed the cat was true and cruel. He did not expect Lian to flirt with him at the so called 'party'. He did not think Stephanie would get jealous of a thirteen year old girl. And he definitely did not expect hyperactive super powered toddlers running around.
"psst…psst" He heard hissing noises calling him. Robin turned to see Bart cowering in a corner of the living room. The black haired raised his eyebrow at this display. Bart waved his hand signaling Robin to come closer. He was unsure at first but gave in and kneeled next to him after pausing the game.
The redheaded looked left then right before asking "Have you seen Cissie?" Tim nodded slowly. "Ok concentrate, Lian is the enemy so avoid her. There are six kids, super powered, one of them evil, and they are on sugar." Drake did his best to not storm out of the place to play at the Wayne Manor in peace. He needed to find Stephanie first though.
At that moment the doorbell rang. Jaime opened to reveal a blonde, tall girl wearing a white skirt with a red tank top. The tanned skinned boy smiled charmingly welcoming her. She smiled back pink plum lips stretching and making the boy blush. Back at the living room Bart was shaking Robin so fast he looked blurry.
Lian suddenly yanked Robin from Bart's grasp. "Find your own Robin" She said sticking her tongue out at him. The redheaded shrugged backwards alarmed by her words.
.o.
Meanwhile in the kitchen Wonder girl was chatting with Beastboy and Jaime. When the doorbell rang the current Blue Beatle went to open first. The blonde Amazon followed him with her blue orbs ignoring Beast boy. Cissie greeted the boy with a way too flirty attitude. BB watched amused as she clenched her fists breaking the class she was holding. Fortunately it was a plastic cup.
They hadn't noticed a small boy making his way up to one of the stools in the kitchen. When he was finally sitting between both current heroes he smiled widely at Wonder Girl. "Jhour Prheety" He said concentrating on his words and ignoring how his face looked and felt like a tomato. She looked happy and relaxed at his comment, opposite how Jay thought it would be. "I think you're pretty cute yourself." She said cheerfully closing her eyes to give him a warm smile.
The boy held no reaction in his face. BB waved a hand in front of his face but got no emotion still. The green skinned shrugged and looked for more soda.
.o.
Damian hung by his knees upside down on a tree branch. He had a deep frown, his eyes closed with a slight pout on his face; uncharacteristic for any eight year old kid except for him apparently. Iris was speeding excitedly on their backyard. She noticed the gloomy boy hanging upside down with his arms crossed. She giggled because he looked like a bat with his black pants, black jacket and black combat boots. A very moody bat she found interesting. Her piggy tails bounced with her as she sprinted to his direction. She vaguely spotted Mar'i, Emma and Caleb peeking at the hose.
When she was just in front of his face she stopped. She was very close. His eyes shot open. Deep black pools of scary darkness. She squeaked and jumped away from him. He didn't seem scared by her presence, more like annoyed that she decided she could talk to him. The others didn't seem to bother to talk to him. Recovering from her initial surprise she brushed her overall trying to get rid of the grass left in her clothes.
He studied her still hanging upside down. She tilted her neck sideways until she could see him upside down. "I'm Iris" He glared at her. He didn't know the girl but it wasn't new. He didn't know anyone actually and he didn't need to, especially if they were this annoyingly nice.
"Iris West" She smiled toothily "And I'm six years old, I like playing soccer, archery, running, drawing, unicorns, water balloons and Nightwing." She said counting with her fingers. He didn't answer, only closed his eyes hoping she would leave. "Oh and the beach!" This time she yelled making him lose balance until he fell.
He groaned, roughly brushing his soiled body. "Go play somewhere else!" He snapped rudely. She scowled placing her arms on her hips like her mom always did with his dad. "That was not nice." She said. "I don't care" he retorted angrily. "Well I don't like you!" "Neither do I!"
Their yelling was stopped when a squirming hose sprayed them over. Caleb was twirling with his hands stretched to the sky. The girls copied him squealing with the water. Iris laughed forgetting the rude boy and danced along.
.o.
Bart was still sulking in the couch passing the channels when Stephanie sat next to him. She placed a hand on his shoulder observing how usually this cheerful self seemed depressed. "Impulse?" He looked at her grinning in what was supposed to be a flirty way. "You called?" It came out lifeless and dull.
She eyed him warily considering if she should tell him everyone knew he liked Cissie the moment she joined the team. He reassumed his changing the channels task. Stephanie sighed, not remembering toddlers were left unguarded for more than five minutes. An idea came to mind. After all she could kill two birds with one stone.
The blonde girl sitting next to him started giggling loudly for no apparent reason. "Oh Bart-y you are so fun." She said between giggles making sure a certain Boy Wonder and archer heard loud and clear. She began petting his unruly bangs fluttering her eyelashes at him. He stopped what he was doing to stare blankly at the recent Batgirl.
"Uh..." Was the only syllable he was able to pronounce. She started getting closer to him tugging his red t shirt eyeing casually at Robin and Cissie. The boy was simply terrorized not sure what to do, while the girl looked dangerously pissed off. Stephanie smirked "Perfect… just follow my lead." Bart had no idea what to do so he just let the girl be in charge.
Arrowette strolled angrily to the couch when they heard water splashing on the roof, and through the glass door that led to the yard. Everyone on the house looked to were the noise came only to see a weird looking redheaded dancing in the mud and a very angry black haired boy kicking the wet grass yelling at the girl who ignored him.
.o.
Jay looked from the window as a chaos unfolded in his garden. Wonder Girl told him to stay inside so he did. He was usually calm and silent, like his mother but quite flirty and hungry like his father. He didn't hear the lock open or the door squeak. The show going on behind the window was too distracting
Bart failed speeding in the mud ending up crushing into Cissie's chest, which earned him a few kicks and punches after he recovered from severe 'sunburn' on his cheeks. Bat girl and Robin managed to catch Emma but it didn't last since she had super strength. Caleb looked sugar high, unusual, and his tattoos sparkled.
Mar'i was chasing imaginary butterflies occasionally flying over the commotion. Beastboy decided he could transform into a butterfly to catch the girl. Jaime sneaked on Caleb and grabbed his arm but he scared him making the kid electrocute the Spanish talking teen. The shock made him pass out. Wonder Girl caught him before he fell into the mud. The hose kept spraying everyone as it flew wildly by the pressure.
Damian raised an eyebrow and calmly walked inside the house unaware of the annoying girl following him.
When he was inside she yelled, effectively scaring Damian and her brother. Bruce's heir looked beyond mad, reaching forward to pull one of her muddy pony tails. She hissed in pain and grabbed his wrist. He snarled remembering his assassin training but quickly retracting his hand gaining self control. Iris though punched him hard.
At that moment Wally entered happily whistling a catchy tune from Florida. When he saw the scene he simply turned to stare at his wife "Did I tell you, or did I tell you" He said sarcastically. Artemis narrowed her eyes and also caught sight of whatever this was supposed to be. "At least no one is lost" She said looking for a bright side. But seriously who in their sane mind throws a party with toddlers?
Lian appeared behind the people inside the room. "If I were you I keep an eye on Iris and Wayne boy." She said sucking on a lollipop. The adults turned to see Iris and Damian pushing each other forcefully. She looked determined and frustrated, he looked angry and bitter.
"My baby will not get together with that demon child! I will not permit this!" Wally squealed dramatically (and totally manly, not at all scared of a kid) picking Iris up and away from the brooding boy. Bart entered the house at the moment with Caleb in his arms leaving a trail of dirt and water. Caleb sneezed. "You're going to get it." Lian said in a sing-song voice. "He is an atlantian he doesn't even get colds!"Bart complained stupidly. Yep, this would be the last he would know about being a nanny.
