Sam
The Press was everywhere! This party, was currently being held at the most beautiful place in the world, The Broadmoor Hotel, in Colorado Springs. Conner took my arm, and we walked inside together, letting the press get pictures of us smiling and laughing at his jokes. We stepped inside the reception hall, and I finally got a good look at him. He wore the dress pants I bought him for my Junior prom, and a black dress shirt, with the top 2 buttons undone. I felt way over dressed next to him.
Conner
I never expected Sam to look like this. He long red hair was pinned up with a flower clip. Her dress looked amazing in the light of the hall. A beautiful emerald green with black lace that cascaded down to the floor. She smiled up at me, and I smiled at her. She looked beautiful, no makeup, and she had in her one feather earring, with a native american necklace that Blue gave her. She wore heels, so she wasn't her usual short self. We walked over to the Flash and Superman, who had their wives with them.
"Sam!" A woman, who looked just like her came over and hugged her tightly. "You look gorgeous!" She pulled away and kissed Sam's cheek. Sam smiled that amazing lopsided grin and looked at me.
"Aunt Iris, this is my teammate Superboy." She shook my hand and Superman walked over with who I could only assume was Louis Lane.
"Conner, this is Lious. Louis, my son Conner." She smiled and shook my, hand.
"It's not everyday Clark gets Cloned. You should feel very lucky." She smiled at me again and turned to continue talking with Iris.
"Have you met Sam?" Sam blushed furiously as she fell next to me.
"I don't believe I have." He smiled and shook her hand.
"Samantha West. Also known as Night Shadow."
"Oh you're Wally's sister. How is he fairing these days?" She smiled and told him all about artemis and College.
Sam
I was talking to THE Superman. He was talking back, like we knew each other! To be honest The only others I've meet outside from the team have been my uncle, green arrow, Batman, and Aquaman.
Me and Conner walked away, still linked and as we made our way to the table, we were intercepted by Zatanna and Nightwing.
"Sam you look gorgeous!" Zatanna hugged me and the Conner. "We'll be sharing a table together... I kinda requested it." She giggled nervously and I gave her a smile. We sat down at our table, and Zatanna started talking about everything. Then came the question, but from Dick, not Zatanna
"Are you and Conner together now?" The two of us, stammered and blushed.
"N-n-n-no!" He finally spit out. "It's just a friend thing. Carpooling purposes. It's good for the environment." I nodded.
The night ended without too much fun. No attacks, no nothing. As Connor took me towards Sphere, thats when the fun started.
"Ah, well look what we have here. Little Sammie, and Loser Boy." There he was in all his rotten glory, X.
"Did you just come up with that now?" I smirked at him as he jumped down and pulled out his knife.
"Oh no, I've been thinking of it all week as I pondered, what will her last words be?" Conner pulled me behind him and growled
"Touch her and you'll get whats coming to you." I pulled Connor back, but he didn't budge.
"Oh yea pretty boy?" He ran at full speed and managed to slice his arm.
I tripped him as he passed me. "I just bought him that shirt." Wolf jumped out and pounced on him, leaving him helpless.
"A dog? is that the best you can do?" As he said that, 30 squirrels came out of the trees with acorns, throwing them at his face. I waled over to him, and Kicked his head, knocking him out.
"Should we leave him here?" I nodded and picked up his knife. Me and Connor went back to Sphere with wolf, and left for home.
"I'm sorry, but I'm resigning from the team. Robin, now is your chance, step up to take my place." He nodded and Kaldur walked away. I ran after him and out of the cave.
"Stop Kaldur!" I grabbed his arm and pulled myself towards his back. "Don't go! I know I messed up. I loved Tula too!"
"If you loved her this wouldn't have happened." He ripped himself from my grasp.
"Please... don't leave me..." He turned and knelt beside me. "Please Kaldur... I'll go with you... just please don't leave me."
"No." He Lifted my head up and kissed me. Just a peck. Then he was gone. The ground ripped open below me, and I grasped the ledge. No one came for me, my fingers slipped, and I fell.
Conner
I rushed into Sam's room as soon as I heard her scream. There she was, curled into a ball on her bed, shaking. I walked over and sat beside her, rubbing her back.
"It's okay." I pulled her against me, still rubbing her back. "It wasn't real. Just a dream." To be honest I had no clue if it was true or not, but It felt like the right thing to say.
Sam works at this modeling agency. The main secretary position to be exact. She was always on call, even at home. There are days she'll get to the cave at midnight, and still be working. Even days where she'll be at Wally's and on call. She's dedicated, I mean, she has to make money somehow right? M'gann has her going out now for food and groceries, because she isn't a well known hero and because of that the two of us can been seen together, and not a whole lot of fuss will be made about it. On the topic of me and Sam, I guess Cassie, Bee, and Batgirl, think we're an item now, and somehow they got M'gann to think it to.
"Superboy?" I turned from the dishes to see M'gann. "Is Sammie still at work?" She seem concerned so I nodded.
"She said this morning she won't be back till after dinner." M'gann pulled out a tablet, and brought up a news article.
"I think you should read this."
I scanned it, and my heart sank to the pit of my stomach. "M'gann is this THE building or A building?"
"The building." Just then the computer went off. I walked out and saw Sam walking in with a bunch of papers. I ran over to her and hugged her, letting her papers fall to the ground.
"Woah! Hey did I miss the party or something?" I looked at her smile and relaxed.
"M'gann show her the article." M'gann floated it over and Sam scanned the page.
"It's okay, they moved me this morning. into the corporate building downtown."
Sam
It's the first time I've been able to make everyone dinner since I started this job a year ago. Tonight, I was making my favorite gumbo recipe. Which had lots of meat, and this special hot sauce.I had just put the nicely grilled and diced steak in, wh en Aaron and Blue walked in.
"Hey Sam, I was wondering if it was okay for me to take Aaron on the next mission." I looked at Aarons hopeful face and just couldn't say no.
"Okay. You have my permission but make sure to clear it with Night Wing." The two of them high-fived and ran off, leaving me alone with the stew.
It didn't take long to finish it. and It seems everyone knew when it was done, because as soon as I set it on the table, there they were, sitting like little angels.
About halfway through dinner is when the fun began. And it all started with Robin flinging a piece of hot sauce covered steak at La'gaan's head. Me and Conner ducked out into the hallway before we could get hit. I started laughed, and soon the two of us were on the floor laughing so hard we couldn't breathe. Conner took my hand, and took me to the Hangar. The sunset was so breath taking I couldn't help but move towards it.
"Beautiful." I breathed. Conner stepped up beside me and took my hand.
"You are." I turned to face him, blushing furiously. He called me beautiful... me, when he had M'gann who could shape shift into a supermodel. He looked down at me, and we stood there for god knows how long, just looking into each others eyes.
That night, I didn't have any nightmares, just sweet dreams.
