I do not own Young Justice.

(The fanfic has been written and typed in ten minutes flat, so I apologize for the randomness. And Thai Iced Tea is real. And Delicious. I know Artemis isn't Thai.)


Thai Iced Tea


Artemis and Kid Flash had been dating for a grand total of two weeks when M'gann brought it up.

"I have found the cutest dresses in blue and pink. Do you think we can go on another double date wearing these? Please?"

Conner bit into a cookie and Robin brought out four glasses for after-mission drinks. Artemis, watching them, shook her head. "Sorry—I was going to bring up sometime soon, but Wally and I broke up last night."

There was a pause where Conner looked at his girlfriend in silent worry. M'gann?

On accident, she opened up her mind and Conner choked as fire, floods, earthquakes, and lightening ransacked his mind. "Artemis!"

"What!"

"Get back together with Wally!"

"No!"

"Why are we yelling!" yelled the Boy Wonder.

The mind link between Conner and M'gann severed quickly. M'gann turned to her friend and frowned. "Why? Why on all of Earth and Mars? Supermartian and Spitfire have only been on one double date!"

Robin shoved a straw in each glass. "You wanna talk about it?"

Artemis tried not thinking about his abs as he stretched to reach the milk. "Nah. It was kinda weird, you know? I love Wally and Wally loves me, but not in that way. I'm his best female friend and he's like, my best guy friend."

Conner looked wounded. Artemis immediately held up her hands. "Along with you, Kaldur, and Robin, of course. Just Wally and I are on the same friendship wavelength. Exact same."

M'gann moaned. "But Artemis! The dresses are adorable and as sisters, we could have made this work!" She put her head in her hands and blindly reached out for Robin's specially-made tea, Thai style.

Mourning the could-have-beens, she sighed and took a drag. "I had this entire month planned out. Entire. Month." M'gann's expression changed from hurt to determined. "You will get a boyfriend by tomorrow. I'm not even joking. Right this minute, I will buy you the blue dress and you, your new boyfriend, Conner, and myself will go out tomorrow to the new movie and the ice cream place. Or I will enter your mind and Wally's to erase the break up and make you think your getting married the next week."

Artemis' mouth dropped open. "M'gann, you can't do that!"

"Watch me."

She took Conner's hand and they both left the kitchen talking about dress sizes and movie ticket prices.

Robin watched all of this in silence. He turned to Artemis. "So, I'm free tomorrow."
