Melissa laid on her bed staring at the ceiling in deep thought. Jenny was gone to work and Melissa didn't have school. Jenny had bought Melissa a cellphone after the last mystery but surprisingly she didn't use it much. She looked up when her phone vibrated. She grabbed it to see she had a message from Dick.
Hey, Melissa, you like race cars right?
Somewhat why do you ask
I have my reasons.
Which are?
"I just scored tickets to The Gotham Grand Prix.
Awesome.
I'll be by soon to pick you up.
Cool.
So, Melissa sat up and stretched before making herself somewhat presentable. Having been in Grumpy Cat themed pajama's she changed into her usual outfit. A Hex Girls top, ripped jeans, combat boots, and her leather jacket. She swept her hair out of her face before sliding her red knit cap onto her head. It was just as she shoved her phone into her pocket that the doorbell rang. Melissa opened the front door greeting her boyfriend with a wide grin. Dick stood on the porch shaking slightly from the rather chilly November weather. Melissa stepped aside ushering him inside before closing the door.
"Hey there handsome," she laughed as Dick shook.
"Hi, Melissa you might want to grab a hoodie or at the very least a scarf," Dick warned in response.
"In that case, I'll return shortly,"
She did return to the living room to find Dick propped up on the couch lazily flipping through the TV shows as if he owned the place.
"Comfortable there Bird Boy?" Melissa smirked as she dropped beside him.
"Now I am," he replied smugly as he wrapped an arm around her and pulled her closer.
"As much as I'm enjoying this don't we have somewhere we need to be?"
"You're a buzzkill Harley Jr," Dick teased.
"What did you call me?" Melissa asked.
"What you think you have sole rights to name calling around here?" Dick laughed as the went outside.
"I was sure that was clear,"
"Well, you were wrong," Dick said as they put on their helmets.
"Harley Jr?" Melisa asked.
"I'll think of something better eventually," Dick sighed as he started the engine.
"You'd better," Melissa mock threatened.
"Hang on tight"
Off they went to the race and their next mystery.
