Chapter One
Friends & Lovers
It's like any other day at Mount Justice. Where Red Tornado is our dead mother or babysitter so to speak. It was combat practice with Black Canary. Aqualad and Superboy were in the middle of sparing. Kid Flash was too busy stuffing his mouth full of food. Artemis and Miss Martian were checking out the two boys spraining.
"Hey, Red Arrow could you come here for a sec?" as I announce across the room.
"Sure" as Red Arrow walks toward me with a *grin* on his face as usual. Red Arrow manages to quickly get past Superboy and Aqualad in order to get to me and wondering what I'm going to say.
"Yeah, what do you want Rob?" as if to say he's not in the mood for chit chat.
"Nothing, but to say how you like it here so far at Mount Justice?" staring straight at him with a look on my face say to myself "Just asking."
"Its fine the place has its up and downs" as if to say "it's okay."
"So you saying you hate this place?" looking at him being confused and all. He didn't answer my question. We both turn our attention to Superboy and Aqualad as they finish up their match against each other. Then Canary announces "That's all for the day," and leaves through the vata tube. We haven't had a mission for like two days now. So we all spent the night except Wally. Wally was told to go home right after combat practice cause of school. It was in the middle of the night when…..knock knock…..
"Huh, who is it "being half awake and struggling to get out of bed without falling on my face.
"It's me Roy…may I come in Rob?"
"Sure" the door opens to my room and incomes Roy aka Red Arrow.
"What's up Roy?" looking at him still half asleep.
"You know were friends right?"
"Yeah" with a confused look.
"I want us to be more than just friends, I want to be a couple" as he lens in closer to me.
"Wh….", as I was cut off by his lips. As he lets go of the kiss I started getting a little worried. I didn't notice that I started blushing. Roy *grins* at me as I wipe off my mouth with my glove.
"What's wrong Rob your turning all red," as he stares at me with a *grin * on his face.
"What the hell Roy! Why'd you do that?" looking at him mad and clueless.
"I want us to be lovers Rob so that was my way of saying "Pleaseeeeeeees." As I turn to face him I got hit with another kiss forcing me to lie down on my bed. We finally broke the kiss again sitting back up in my bed wondering what to say. Then I got an idea…..
"Fine Roy, but not in front of the team. Now get out!"
"Okay" as he leaves the room satisfied. I curled up in my bed wondering why the hell I agreed to his circumstances to become a couple. I feel asleep again with that in my mind… I end up sleeping with one eye open to make sure he does not wonder into my room unannounced. Other than that I had a very nice sleep.
