Anywhere But Here by Safteysuit (on repeat)
"Dad's gonna kill me," Cameron said as he watched the two superheroes in front of him kiss passionately. Most people would've felt awkward in this situation, but all Cam felt was bitterness and betrayal. He thought he had made a friend and maybe a girlfriend. Guess that was his mistake. How long are they gonna sit there and make out? Cameron glared at the two as they came up for air. "Tommy" gave him an apologetic smile while Cam just stood there.
"Hey man, look I'm sorry alright? It was a mission, and I'm pretty sure you wouldn't like who I really was anyway," he said shifting his weight from one foot to the other. It was only at this time that Cameron fully looked over the two heroes. Wait a sec, THAT'S Martian Manhunter's niece! I've seen her in the paper. But that means...
"Y-you're Superboy! Holy shit! Dad's not just going to kill me, he's going to stuff me in an ice crusher and then put me in his iced tea!" Cameron started to panic, pacing back and forth frantically. This is so not good. Today has to be the suckiest day ever! No bro, no gf, and now I'm gonna die. Hooray.
"You must calm down Icicle, you don't need your father. You can work on being a good citizen instead!" the Martian girl said cheerfully. Cameron allowed himself to ponder the thought for a moment, but then shook his head. No way that wouldn't blow up in his face. Before he could answer though, the Justice League decided to step in and begin rounding up prisoners. The prison would be fully repaired by tomorrow night he estimated. As long as I don't get a cell near my father, I'm cool.
An African-American teen with gills soon descended the stairs from the roof. Aqualad I presume. Kid Flash and Robin followed soon after, coming to congratulate Superboy and Miss Martian. A team? Psh, wish I would've know that. From behind, someone place their hand firmly on Cam's shoulder, shaking him out of his thoughts. He was about to turn around and freeze the hell out of them, only to see it was Batman. Oh shit.
"B-batman, how nice to see you," he smiled nervously. Batman just remained stoic.
"Aqualad, one of you escort Icicle Jr to a cell on the east side of the prison, away from his father." Thank god.
"Absolutely," Aqualad nodded. He put a hand to his com link and spoke, "Artemis, I need to you down here to take someone to their cell." Ugh, yay a justice geek.
Cameron turned his head abruptly at the sight of someone cart wheeling off a higher level of the prison. She landed almost silently, and stood up gracefully. She was beautiful, but looked almost pained. Her eyes were an ashen gray, and could probably kill in their own way. She was toned, very muscular. Her hair was a regal gold, and it cascaded down her back. She wore a dark green costume that exposed the midriff, and she stood straight, not slouching at all. This must be Green Arrow's sidekick.
She caught sight of him and immediately glared. He had been right about those eyes, he felt powerless under them. She stomped towards him obviously frustrated to have to escort him across the prison. I'd be pissed too.
"What are you staring at ice cube? Did you not hear the order?" She said grabbing his arm and dragging him towards the east wing. He complied, not wanting to start anything. Today had been bad enough. After a few minutes of silence, he heard the girl mutter things under her breath.
"Stupid Kid Flash, stupid prison, why do I always get the simple jobs? Do they think I'm incapable of handling things on my own?" she spoke.
" Trust me, from the way you jumped from the above story, I don't think anyone thinks that," the words slipped out of Cameron's mouth. Artemis came to a complete halt, making Cameron smack into her back and fall to the damp ground. Artemis turned slowly.
"Well I'm so glad you understand," she said, her voice dripping with sarcasm. Still, she offered a calloused hand to help him up. "Keep walking ice cube."
When they reached his cell, she lightly pushed him in and closed the gate. Her com link beeped, and she brought her hand up to listen. She nodded slowly before saying "Gotcha, I'll be right down." She looked over to him and her expression softened for a split second. She nodded to him, and then jumped over the railing. Cameron sat there in deep thought, never really figuring out what was happening to him.
"Is this the end of the moment? Or just a beautiful unfold-ing of a love that will never be? Or maybe be?"
AN: What did you guys think? Should I continue or not? Oh and BTW, the song is kinda a big component throughout the story, even though other songs will be focused on too, Anywhere But Here is the main one ;) I mean duh, it's the title of the story xD Bye for now!
