Jinx's POV
For once in my life everything is going great, I'm good now, living with my boyfriend wally that's occasionally a challenge, but at least I have friends that I can talk to about my problems now. I'm no longer that weird villain girl, who had pink hair and hung out with idiots. Well at least not evil idiots, Gar and Wally were both idiots but at least they had good intentions. And I still have bright pink hair, sometimes. So not a huge amount had changed apart from the people I hang out with and my morals, but even they hadn't changed that much just had a few tweaks, they were a work in progress.
Starfire was the first of the titans to accept her into their little group of girls in the titans then the others followed Kole, Bee, Argent and then lastly Raven; Raven was always slow to trust, it took a while (3 years to be precise) and a few close calls where I'd saved raven but when that happened Raven and I became somewhat inseparable. I am now a trusted member if the teen titans.
Starfire was friends with everyone and was sickeningly optimistic, somehow I liked it, it took some getting used to but eventually the nausea subsided. A little strange but seriously who was I to judge, I had pink hair and resembled that of a mutated cat.
Kole and I had bonded over a middle of the night conversation, we'd been on the roof, both not used to the tower, I couldn't sleep it wasn't noisy enough and it was too noisy for Kole, we'd talked about our pink hair and the stars and her home, how I'd never had a home, we'd just chatted. Two sleepless souls.
Bee had been trickier, she'd known me from my hive academy days, I was essentially the Regina George of the academy, which meant that mammoth would have been Karen and gizmo Gretchen. I laugh thinking about it. Our friendship started on a titan movie night, yes they had those and they were usually pretty fun, we'd have them after the giant meeting we had every 6 months or so.
Argent had made an offhand comment about fashion which sparked a great debate about the topic and attacking beast boy and giving him a makeover.
And lastly we'd been in a battle and I pushed Raven out of the way of the falling roof injuring myself in the process.
I walked with a down the street that led to Wally and my apartment, in keystone (we'd left Jump as I'd wanted a fresh start and Wally was more comfortable here; near his family). I let myself in quietly so as not to wake wally up seeing as he'd been out all night with robin and the other boys for his 21st birthday he was slightly hungover not badly as his metabolism meant he had to drink about a bottle of Russian extra strength vodka to get even slightly tipsy.
I started making bacon sandwiches when Wally walked in the kitchen shirtless.
"You look so perfect standing there in my American apparel underwear." he sings cheerfully at her
"Hate to burst your little bubble but I'm not wearing your American apparel underwear as it's kinda skanky." I responded giving him a quick peck on the cheek.
"Shh, don't kill what could have been classed as a romantic gesture, not everyone has wonderful boyfriends who give them a breakfast serenade, besides I'm not too fussed about what underwear your wearing as my plans are to get you out of them." I slap him playfully on the arm.
He starts to tickle me until we end up in quite a compromising position on the kitchen floor. "Mercy!" I say laughing before thumping him.
"Very sorry, kid slow, thank you for your wonderful breakfast serenade it was very thoughtful. What are your plans for today?" I ask him
«I'm going to go hop in the shower, grab some of that delicious looking bacon, then I'm gunna head over to the tower, Vic believes we are in need of a boy's day out. What about you? And are we still on for dinner tonight?"
"Yup," I respond popping the p at the end. "And I'm not sure what I'm going to do today maybe give Gonzales a bath he's starting to smell worse than your gym bag after basketball with Cy."
"Gonzales, run before your mom comes after you with a bar of soap." Wally says quickly to the little copper coloured spaniel who excitedly started yapping and running around in circles in excitement.
Wally's POV
I headed off to shower laughing at Jinx's attempt to calm the mad dog down. I was thinking of what I might say tonight. I wanted everything to be perfect when I asked her to marry me. I let the water rush over my head as I debated between 2 possible things to say to her 'Jinx, I love you, I loved you as soon as I met you, and I will love you till beyond forever will you marry me?' or a simple 'I love you and will do until the day our entire universe explodes, which knowing our luck will happen any day now, will you please marry me?'
God choosing a ring had been easier, the ring was sterling silver and diamond made to look like a rose, Wally had seen it and knew that it was the ring. It was the ring he could see Jinx wearing every day for the rest of her life, he could picture it on her long, pale finger.
This would be the kind of thing I usually ask my friends for advice, Vic was good at this stuff; romantic gestures and Dick was 2 years younger and had only ever really been out with Starfire, so he wasn't very useful, neither of them were especially since neither of them had proposed.
We were sitting at the table of a small restaurant, looking at menus trying to decide what main they wanted.
"I think I like the sound of that chicken parmesan." says Jinx casually looking up at me.
"That does look good, but I think I'm going to get the mushroom ravioli." we place our orders and the waiter and he scurries off.
"How was your boy's day?" she asks.
"It was so cool, we had a game tournament and Gar lost, Vic and he had bet on who would win so beast boy had to go to the pizza place, in T-rex form on a leash and sit there and eat an anchovy pizza, it was nasty."
"Sounds like fun."
"Dick kept on sneaking off to call Kori and when Vic found out him sonic beamed his communicator and Dick went bat crap crazy." she smiled at my bad accidental pun.
"How was your day, beautiful?" I say holding her hand over the table.
"I gave Gonzales a bath." she states making a sour face.
"More water on you than on him I'm guessing?"
"Yup."
"He get your hair wet?"
"Yup." I start laughing
"It's not funny. You know how my hair gets." Her hair was untameable at the best of times and often broke laws of physics, when it wasn't gelled up in its usual style it bounces around her head in a mess of bright pink curls.
This makes me laugh even harder and as I try to wipe a tear from my eye. Crap! Jinx's magenta eyes glowed with mischief and then I felt my drink on my face.
"Okay, I may have deserved that. Babe, I love you and your crazy, physically impossible hair."
"Really?" she says quirking an eyebrow
"Babe this is the part where you say something sweet back like I like your hair too."
"Fine, I love you too carrot top."
"I shall accept that as a compliment." I tease quickly reaching over the table to her quickly stealing a kiss, her face lit up.
"There's that Jinx smile, I love so much."
She was about to respond when a large crash came from down the street. Damn it, can I not get a night off from superheroing for one night whilst I attempt to propose to my girlfriend. I thought.
"Let's go." I say looking at Jinx, who had a stunned look on her face.
"What?" I ask.
"Did you just ask me to marry you?"
"Shit! Was I thinking out loud again?"
"Yes."
"Aw crap, I didn't want to ask you like that, I had a whole speech put together and a cheesy down on one knee thing planned."
"Babe, not to interrupt your mini breakdown about how you didn't propose the way you'd planned, but there does happen to be a robot tearing up the street and we need to get these out of our civvies and help them. Get a hold of yourself Wally or so help me I will hex you into next week."
"Okay."
"Oh and Wally," she says to me turning around after the last of the smoke cleared from her charm so she could change her clothes.
"Yeah." I say coming to a stop.
"Yes."
At first this confuses me then I realise she's saying yes to marrying me. Yes! She said yes.
"Okay, let's go kick some robot ass." I say with a giant smile on my face.
She steps forward to go but I put my arm out to stop her "Wait just one second." I tell her.
"Wally, you big goof, we need to go and stop a robot form destroying keystone."
"Okay, but don't you want to wear your ring."
She grins at me, sticking out her hand, I grab the ring from the box and slip it on her finger kissing her on the cheek, running off to kick robot ass before she could even blink.
"Save some for me!" she calls out as she starts getting civilians out of the way.
A/N: So is Jinx too OOC? Hmm I don't know maybe she'll get meaner maybe she's just like that around people she trusts. I suppose this is kinda fluffy but it will have a plotline later on, just establishing the basics so far. This will link in with later chapters and explain Indigo's story.
I own nothing besides the plot. Yet. Not sure if there will be any OC's. Ships for this are RobStar, CyBee, and obviously Flinx might be some BBRae action going on here. and remember kids do not buy pie from crazy old gypsy ladies, as the old gypsy lady will probably end up taking over your tower, not that, that has ever happened to me *insert shifty look here* you'll never take me alive. I own nothing.
Updates for this will be sporadic and whenever Sof and I get together to write a few chapters at least once a month.
