Sincere

I sat on the couch in what I guess you would call the living room at Mt. Justice. I was finally alone with no one to bother me I could just read and relax my mind. I thought to soon because Speedster Jr. showed up. I hope he would just ignore me and go bother Megan or Robin but like usual all my hopes are crushed as he went directly to me. Maybe if I ignore him and keep reading the book he will get bored and leave me alone.

"Hey Artemis, what are you reading?" Wally asked from behind the couch.

"A book." I answered.

"I have something I want to ask you." He told me. I always wondered why people said that I mean it's not like they're going to ask you if it's ok they're just making a statement about what they are going to do in the next five seconds.

"Better ask now or forever hold your peace." I said putting the book on my lap.

"Why are avoiding me?" He asked hopping over the couch and taking a seat right next to me.

"I'm not avoiding you." I will admit I just lied to his face it was true I was avoiding him because I knew he would come asking questions I wasn't allowed to answer. "How could I avoid you if we're on the same team?"

"I can't explain it right now but I can tell when my ninja girlfriend is avoiding me." I rolled my eyes.

"I'm telling you this for the last time; I'm not your ninja girlfriend whatever happens in Bialya stays in Bialya."

"Whatever you say Artemis, oh is that why you're avoiding me because you afraid to tell me that you have feelings for me. It's ok Artemis my charm is irresistible." He said putting his arm behind my head.

"It's not that." I said pushing his arm away from me.

"So you admit that there is something wrong."

"No I was saying that I don't have hidden feelings for you I was say -, oh you know what I mean. Just leave me alone." I said.

"You can trust me Artemis."

"What part of leave me alone don't you understand."

"You can tell me.'

"There's nothing to tell. Why don't you bother Megan, A girl who can tell you her problems."

"Why can't you be like Megan than?"

"If you haven't noticed me and Megan are very different people. She gets to be normal and not worry about what she says or does and I; oh forget it." I said stopping before I screwed up and told him something I wasn't supposed to. He was actually silent for a moment. "I have to go see Black Canary now." I said before exiting the room.

It was night already and it's been hours since I've seen Wally. I sat on the beach looking up at the stars.

"You should be inside already." Wally said standing to next to me.

"I'll be inside in a minute." I told him. He sat down next to me without saying a word about the fight we had earlier. I looked back at the stars. "I know you are still in denial about believing in magic but if you have could make a wish on a star and have it come true what would it be?" I asked him.

"Well if magic actually existed and making a wish on a star actually worked I would wish that I didn't have to go to school and be the loser Wallace West." He told me actually being sincere. "What would you wish for?"

"To be normal. I mean I like protecting people I honestly do but the things that weren't normal before I joined Green Arrow I would wish never happened. And if that stuff never happened then not being a superhero if a good price to pay." I said being as honest as I could with him. My eyes started to tear up so I looked away and dried them off with my arm.

"Well if you're normal you would have never met me." He said without even looking I knew he had a cocky grin while he said it.

"I would still see Kid Flash on the news."

"Yeah but it wouldn't be the same."

"Well I think we should go now." I said changing the subject and getting up. I stood up and started to wipe the sand off me while I suddenly felt Wally grab me and then I was in front of my door in Mt. Justice. "Well I'll admit that was fast but next time just give me a warning."

"I'll consider it." I actually smiled at the comment. I turned around to open the door. "Artemis."

"Yeah?" I asked turning around.

"I think being normal is overrated. You wouldn't be the Artemis that I enjoy and you would be a lot less fun to fight with." He told me.

"Thanks, if the guy I was talking to in front of my door and at the beach is Wallace West then I think Wallace West is just fine the way he is." I told him. "Still not sure about the Kid Flash guy though." I said teasingly.

He laughed at that. "Very clever."

"I try." I said shrugging my shoulders.

"Why are you being so nice to me?"

"I could be nice even to you. Goodnight."

"Goodnight." He said.
