A\N: Okay first things first: Sorry for the late update. There are a few notes though that I want people to keep in mind XD:
1. Conner doesn't have daddy issues so that means that Clark loves him as a son
2. Roy still lives with Oliver and also doesn't have daddy issues
* The principal's name is made up :D
Chapter 2: Scooby-doo, meet the gang
As Wally entered the door, he was greeted by only a few people. Two girls, one blonde and one red hair, and one raven haired guy.
Okay, I guess students are normally late here during class. Huh, I guess that's why they have a last five minute warning He thought to himself. Maybe…
"Students aren't normally late. It's just that it's the first day of class so people, both students and teachers, are lazy to come early" the red head beamed at him
Please tell me that I didn't just say those things out loud. Please tell me that she can just read minds. WAIT! That sounds even creepier than the first one. Please tell me that they don't have some sort of super powers here He begged to the universe while avoiding their uncomfortable stares. He snapped back his attention to them when he heard the red head giggle
"Um… Yes, no, no. Yes, you just said those out loud. No, I can't read minds. And no, we don't have super powers here" Wally just smiled at her sheepishly and looked at the ground. To lessen the awkward silence that beginning to fill the room, the girl spoke again
"You must be new here. I never seen you before, there are only a few redheads in the school and I'm one of them. I'm Megan, Megan Jones. I live here in Happy Harbour. The blonde one is Artemis Crock and the guy is Conner Kent."
"Hi I'm Wally, Wally West. I'm new here. I just transferred here today" he said while shaking her hands and waving at the two other occupants
"OH MY GOD! How can I forget? You're the guy who should be coming from Central City High right? The whole school has been buzzing about the new transferee ever since last week. We don't usually have transferees here so naturally you'd be the center of everyone's conversation. We totally have to show you around. I mean-" she was cut off by a hand on her shoulder
"Megan, breathe okay. You have, like, the whole period to talk to him. I don't think that anyone will come in anymore. Hi I'm Artemis." Artemis said while extending her hand "I came from Gotham"
Wally just gave her a polite smile and firm handshake. The three of them didn't notice Conner get up until he extended his hand.
"I'm Conner Kent. I came from Metropolis"
"Oh, I was wondering about your last name. Are you related to the reporter Clark Kent from Daily Planet?" Wally said while returning the handshake as well.
"His kinda like my foster dad. He found me on the staircase of his apartment one night and there you have it"
"Huh, I thought you guys are blood related. Anyways, the reason I'm asking is because my Aunt Iris, she's a reporter as well, is close to someone named Clark Kent."
"Oh, you mean Mrs Iris Allen-West. Yeahh… she made that mistake as well when she first met me. Her reaction was kinda funny when she thought we are related as well" Conner chuckled lightly. Artemis decided to add her thoughts as well
"No shit Sherlock, everyone made the same mistake the first time they met you two" This caused laughter to burst from everyone.
They spend the remaining time of the period to get to know each other and making Wally feel at home. Megan was about to tell stories about their teachers when the bell rang.
"Oh well, there goes the bell." Artemis said while gathering her things and walking towards the door. Wally noticed that Megan and Conner are doing the same and following outside the room. Megan noticed Wally rooted in his seat with a look of uncertainty
"Aren't you coming Wally?" Megan called out
"Um… what do you mean aren't you coming?"
"Oh right, we forgot to tell you. Since this is a prestigious school, there are only a few students here. Enough for one section per year only though most of us are scholarship recipients, only 10% of the school population can actually afford this place."
"So does that mean that we get to spend the whole day together?"
"Umm.. yeah pretty much" Megan offered a huge grin after some hesitation
"Sweet!" Wally said returning the grin as well. He then got up, then together with Megan, went towards Artemis and Conner
The rest of the morning was pretty boring considering that they are already having introductory lesson and introducing Wally to the rest of the class and teachers. Their boredom ended (partially of course, they still do have the rest of the afternoon in school) when the bell rang, signalling their one and a half hour lunch break. Wally was about to leave the classroom when Conner approached him.
"Hey Wally, do you wanna sit with us during lunch. After all, it is your first day here."
"Sure, why not? Who are we sitting with?" he answered hesitantly
"A lot of cool people. You'll meet them during lunch if you sit with us" Conner reassured him
"Okay then. What are we waiting for? Let's go to the cafeteria" Wally said while pumping his fist in the air. This earned him laughs from others.
========================================= The Cafeteria =============================================
Once they were able to get lunches (Taco Tuesdays are the best along with the apple parfait dessert), they settled on a table good for seven and waited for their companions
"Uhhh… I'm soooo bored! Who are we waiting for anyway? exclaimed Wally
"Just two seniors and a freshman. They're usually late for lunch" Megan offered a sheepish smile
"I don't care if they're not usually late. If they won't be here in five more minutes I'm gonna-" she was cut off by a smirking red head. Wally was able to recognize him from somewhere but he couldn't place a finger on it
"If we won't be here by five more minutes, you're gonna what blondie? he asked
"It's none of your business Harper" she replied hotly. "Anyway, where is the little troll? Why is it only the two of you?" she asked. Only then did Wally notice the other person beside this Harper fellow and to his surprise it was Kaldur
"Kaldur!" he suddenly exclaimed, surprising everyone around him and giving him irritated looks. This caused him to shrink back a little his seat. Sensing that the redhead was embarrassed, Kaldur decided to lighten the mood a little
"Wow Wally, you sure do know how to attract an audience" he teased. "Anyway, I'm surprised to see you here them. I guess making friends for you isn't as hard as I thought it would be"
"I'm surprised to see you here as well. I thought that the student president hang out with really cool people. Notthatithinkyouguysarelameitisjustthatheisolderthanyouandyoudontseemtothetypeofpeoplehehangsoutwith" he explained in one breathing
They all looked at him with amused expressions and Conner decided to voice out all of their thoughts.
"You sure do talk a lot" he said while quirking an eyebrow
"Must be part of my charming personality"
"Hahaha, I like this kid. You're new here right? I'm Roy Harper from Star City" Roy grinned while extending a hand. Realization hit Wally hard. In the head (figuratively of course)
"I knew I recognize from somewhere. You're the adopted son of Oliver Queen right? The billionaire, I'm Wally West and I came from Central City" he said while returning the handshake
"Glad to know you don't act differently once you recognized people" Roy said grinning
"Ok guys, now that we all know each other, can someone please answer my question already" Artemis exclaimed
"Why are you asking? Do you miss him already? Can live a day without seeing his face" Roy teased
"Ew Roy, I don't know where you get those ideas from. His like a little brother to me that's all. Is it wrong that I feel concerned" she defended herself, her face twisting to a look of disgust. Their daily bickering was about to start again when Kaldur cut them off
"If you're looking for Dick then I believe he has to run errands for Miss Lance" Kaldur answered politely
"It's so sad then that he will be missing out on lunch after all, we do have someone new to introduce to him." Megan said. It was silent for a whole minute before Wally's stomach decided to make its presence known. Once again this earned him laughs from everyone and making his face turn beet red.
"Come on, let's get lunch started. I'm pretty hungry as well" said Kaldur
The rest of lunch time was spent talking about how the first half of the day was spent and who was interesting and what not. The usual topic for high school student until they were interrupted by an announcement of Principal Martin(*)
"Attention all students, due to some class mixed up which only been noticed now, all classes for the rest of the day will be postponed. The proper schedule will be given tomorrow morning therefore classes will start at 8:30 am and schedules will be given at 8:00 am. For the remaining time of the day, we will be having a school assembly at 2:00. Thank you and that is all."
Once the announcement was over, whispers and murmurs were around every table in the cafeteria. Kaldur then turned to Wally and beamed at him
"Well Wally, are you ready to meet the whole school?"
