Yes, yes, I know. I should be working on Big Girls Don't Cry, but this idea would not leave me alone. I got inspired by this amv "WallArt Teenage Dream " Idk why but it's so cute I nearly cry every single time I watch it. Takes place BEFORE like the last five episodes of season 1. It's easier to work before them. Anyway, umm, enjoy.
Artemis stepped through the Zeta tubes making a beeline for her bedroom at the Cave. The past week had exhausted her beyond comparison and she wanted to spend some quiet time before she went home. The Cave was silent, none of her other teammates were in sight. Making her way down the hall, though, soft music reached her ears. It sounds like…piano. She walked toward the source of the enchanting melody. Piano…coming from, she looked at the name on the door, Baywatch's room?

Wally needed something to get his mind off of everything that was going on. His grades were dropping, his father was furious. Barry was worried that his training wasn't progressing. His mother suggested that he give up the speedster act until his grades came up. Aunt Iris had been trying her best to defend him, but in the midst of the heated discussion, no one noticed Wally run outside to the nearest Zeta tubes. He went to the Cave, checked to make sure he was alone, then went to his room, and started playing the piano.
Ever since his mother had forced him to take lessons when he was younger, he played the piano when he was alone or needed a distraction. No one knew he played except Robin. When his fingers danced across the keys, everything else was forgotten. No parents. No Uncle Barry or Aunt Iris. No Team. No Justice League. No school. No Kid Flash. No speed. Just ivory keys and slow melodies. He had become so immersed in his music that the Wally didn't even notice the blonde archer enter his room.

Okay. So, Wally plays the piano. Wally…plays the piano. How is that even possible? She leaned against the doorframe, silently watching the speedster. A Yamaha keyboard sat against the wall adjacent to the bed. Artemis recognized the song, Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata. She listened in awe, I never knew a song could sound so beautiful. The last few chords echoed and Wally involuntarily jumped when Artemis started clapping. "I didn't know you played piano, Wall-man."
"I didn't know you enjoying sneaking up on people." He replied.
She shrugged and sat on his bed. "Do you know how to play anything else? Or can your brain only retain that much?"
"Please," he scoffed. "Any requests?"
"Surprise me."
A calm tune began to play, but before Artemis could even try to recognize it, Wally started singing.
I think you're pretty
Without any make up on
I think you're funny
When you tell the punchline wrong
I knew you got me
When you let your walls come down, down
Before you met me
I was alright but things were kinda heavy
You brought me to life
Now every February
You'll be my Valentine, Valentine
Let's just talk
All through the night
There's no need to rush
We can dance until we die
You and I will be young forvever
You make me
Feel like I'm livin a teenage dream
The way you turn me on
I can't sleep
Let's run away and don't ever look back
Don't ever look back
My heart stops
When you look at me
Just one touch
Now baby I believe
This is real
So take a chance and don't ever look back
Don't ever look back...
The piano fell quiet and a beat of silence passed. Wally stared awkwardly at the keys in front of him, not wanting to say anything. Slender fingers grasped his face and soft lips touched his cheek, both leaving as quickly as they came. When he finally overcame his shock, Artemis was already sauntering out of the room. "In your dreams, Baywatch." She called back with a playful hint to her voice. Meanwhile, Wally silently fist pumped.
Definitely not what I was hoping for. Much different than I thought it would turn out. But, it won't bother me anymore and I can get back to having Writers' Block!
Totally forgot my disclaimer. I'd really rather not get sued. I. No. Own. And I added the chorus cause I felt like it was really short.
Review?
