Hey guys. This is a just a series of one shots revolving around Cassie and Conner. For the one shots' sake, I'm making Cassie two years older than she is on the show.
Hope you enjoy.
Cassie wasn't mad. She wasn't upset. She wasn't sad. Conner had noticed that Cassie wasn't being her usual self during the mission. She had been shy around him. He didn't understand why she would do that, today had been a great day for the team. They had stopped some kind of kobra-venom shipment. They had scouted the docks of Gotham. They had stopped the shipment. They captured the culprit, who had been none other than Blockbuster. So he didn't know what was wrong.
He had soft spot for her. Not that he would ever admit it. Never the less, he wanted to know. He just didn't know how. Even after all this years, he still wasn't really socially educated. Sure he knew how not be rude, but Conner was a bit blunt. And he guessed been blunt was good enough. So he waited.
Conner and Dick debriefed Bruce on the mission. They were temporarily leaders until Kaldur would return from Atlantis. He was glad Dick was back. Conner had not liked Dick's plan, but now, two months later he accepted it. Dick finished debriefing Batman and they were both excused. Conner waited patiently until Bruce dismissed them.
He made a quick stop in his room. He changed. He took off his signature Superboy shirt and put on a white tee. He took a moment and stayed silent. He could hear everybody's heartbeat. But he listened to one in particular. Her heart beat. It was strong and fluid. He was very fond of it, and he knew it would destroy him if it ever stopped.
He took a deep breath and stepped out of his room. He quietly made his way past the kitchen where Barbara and Dick were flushed and breathing heavily. Conner smirked and Barbara flipped him off. As he left he could hear their heartbeats increase. His smile grew.
He spotted Cassie reading a book. He took a closer look: The Mark of Athena. He chuckled, he loved that series, but the author had really tore at his Percabeth feelings. He hoped Cassie was prepared for the end.
Conner looked at the TV, and a scowled passed his face. He remembered watching static. He wondered why in the world he would watch that. He turned and spotted Artemis, Wally, and Tim watching some werewolf/high school drama. M'gann was talking with Gar, while Bart and Jaime were playing Uno.
He stood in front of Cassie. She kept on reading, she hadn't even noticed him. He cleared his throat. She looked up.
"Hold on. Let me finish this page," she lowered her head. Conner could feel the stares from the people surrounding him.
Cassie finished the page and raised an eyebrow. Conner shrugged and motioned for her to follow him. She nodded.
They walked through the kitchen and spotted Barbara and Dick arguing about what meat should go on their sandwich. They passed the mission room and the Zeta tubes. They were transported to the outside of the mountain. Conner flew to the top and Cassie followed. Conner brushed of the chairs he had set up there. It had sort of become his secret spot. He motioned for her to sit, she did.
"So Conner," she said, "what did you want to talk about?"
Conner leaned forward, "Cassie, what's bothering you? Since the mission, you haven't been the happy self we all know and love."
Cassie bit her lip, "Nothing Conner. I've just been... distracted. That's all."
Conner looked her straight in the eye, "Your heartbeat went up. You lied."
Cassie let out a long sigh, "You seriously want to know," he nodded, "and you aren't going to let it go."
Conner stood up. He walked over to Cassie and put his hand on her a shoulder. Her heartbeat went up.
"It's me isn't it?" he asked, "What did I do?"
"Nothing, Conner. You did nothing," her heartbeat increased.
"No. I did something. Did I hurt you? Was it something I said? Was something I did?"
She bit her lip, and looked away. He leaned closer; she could feel his breath against her cheek, "Holy crap, Cassie. Your heart is going crazy. Are you okay?"
She faced him, five inches stood in between them. Cassie knew this would be her last chance for a while. She looked at his lips, then at his eyes. She closed the gap.
Conner put the clues together. The increased of heartbeat with physical touch. Her shyness when with him. He figured it and smiled.
Cassie worried when Conner didn't return the kiss. She started to pull away only to be stopped by Conner. He pulled her up so she was standing. His hands cupped her face and deepened the kiss.
Cassie was surprised for a bit and then she pressed her body against his. She put her arms around his neck and kissed back.
Conner moved his hands down her sides, lightly caressing her shoulders and later her hips. He put his thumb on her hip bone, and moved one hand to her lower back. He felt her tongue pass over his lip, asking for entrance. He granted it.
She ran her hands up his shirt feeling his abs and chest, slightly pinching and pressing. Conner groaned. He didn't remember if M'gann had ever found his weak spot, but Cassie found it pretty quick. She broke the kiss, and moved her lips up his jaw line. He groaned louder.
Conner took control and moved his head to her neck slightly sucking on it. His hands traveled down her thigh and up again.
Their lips met again. There was so much passion in between the two.
He moved his lips and tongue against hers; she let out a small moan and broke the kiss. Conner frowned but let it be.
"Sorry, had to catch my breath," she said.
Conner smiled, "You never did answer my question."
Cassie smirked, "Didn't have to. I bet you figured it out."
She leaned in and gave him a quick peck, "Come on, let's get back inside."
"But aren't we going to talk about this?"
"Come, well do it another time."
Conner looked at her. He smiled and she smiled back. This was going to be fun.
Yeah, I know. Bad writing.
Hope guys liked it. Oh, and if you could please leave a review. I would really appreciated. Thanks!
