"Star?"Called Dick as he took off his hat and placed it in the stand. A tall redheaded woman in a short purple nightgown looked up from the table she was cleaning.
"Richard!" She exclaimed back in joy. Kori dropped the rag she was using to clean and ran up to kiss her husband. Dick smiled up at her. Kori slid off his sunglasses and her face fell.
"Did you have the rough of days working?" she asked, gesturing to his tired expression. Dick chuckled slightly at Kori's speech. She had lost her accent long ago but still tended to talk in the literal sense. "Yeah I guess. We had to arrest all the people living under the bridge AND process them." He explained as he took off his coat. Kori frowned and went back to cleaning the table.
"Is it not harsh to arrest those folk who are at hard times?"
Dick sighed. "Its still illegal Star. Those folk at hard times happen to have had multiple opportunities to turn their lives around. This one girl blatantly accused the shelters of being inhumane. Utterly ridiculous!"
Kori furrowed her brow but decided not to argue with Dick on a special night.
"there is leftovers on the box of hot and fire." Kori jerked her thumb at the stove. Dick couldn't help but shudder. Kori was not the best chef. He tried to avoid her foreign "Delights" and mustard covered slop whenever possible.
"N-no thanks Star. I ate before I left the station." he said quickly. Kori sighed and turned to him, her green eyes huger than normal. "When I asked for you to return by middle night you know you don't have to if you have business of great importance.."
Dick just smiled at her. "Star, nothings more important than you."
A sly smile suddenly danced about Kori's mouth. coyly she went back to wiping the table. "Oh really?"
Getting the idea, Dick started to move closer to Kori.
"What about Kitten?"
"You know I couldn't stand her."
"Barbera?"
"meant nothing to me."
"Janice?"
"Hey how'd you know about that?"
Kori giggled and turned back to Dick, who had his hands on her waist. Dick wrapped his arms around Kori's thighs and lifted her off her feet. Kori was already taller than Dick so it was some miracle that she didn't give out and fall foreward onto Dicks head.
Dick carried Kori into their bed room and positioned her on his lap. He kissed her for a long time, while behind Dicks hand groped around the nightstand for a small plastic packet. He found it and broke away slightly, holding it between his body and Kori's.
With a sigh, Kori pushed Dicks hand away. "Let us not use that tonight," she said. Dick raised an eyebrow. Kori gave another sigh and looked away.
"You see... we have been legally bonded for about eight months. I believe it is time we think about... offspring."
Dick choked a little. "O-off-offspring?"
Kori looked away. "If if you don't w-want to yet we don't have to talk about this now. It was s-stupid" Dick heard her voice getting whimpering. He hated making his star upset. "hey Star. c'mon look at me. We can try it without a condom. I'm not scared off having kids or anything... lets just try it or..."
"Robin?" asked Kori. Dick jumped at the use of his nickname. He hadn't heard Kori use it since they met at that college party when he wore that awful red sweater.
"Stop talking."
Kori kissed Dick passionately this time. They both grinned against each others mouths. carefully Dick pressed down, laying them both on the bed.
The loud bang of the cell door opening and closing made all the occupants jump awake.
"Get up ya louts!" yelled officer Harper. "You all've been bailed out."
Raven felt a huge weight get rolled off her chest. He did come. she thought. unlike her thoughts, Garfield gave a annoyed moan.
"Aw c'mon Roy! It's the ass crack a dawn"
Officer Harper rolled his eyes. "oh sorry Gar. I thought you and Vic were finished already."
Gar was confused for a second until he realized the large man beside him had turned him into his personal teddy bear. After quite a bit of struggling, alot of laughter on Jinxes part, and a smirk from Raven that made him go nuts, Gar finally screamed "GET THE HELL OFF ME YOU BIG LUMMOX!".
Vic awoke with a start. He whipped his head to see Gar. He quickly pushed away. "Dude, your nice and all, but I don't like you that way."
Jinx nearly fell out of bed with her cackling. Raven shot Vic the brightest smile she had shown all night. Gar was suddenly quite miffed.
"come on lets go!"
Officer Harper grabbed Jinx and pulled her off the top bunk and onto the floor. He did the same with Raven and then gave Gar a hard shove out the door.
As they walked down the white hallway Raven felt her stomach clench. Jinx leaned over a little.
"You ok?'
Raven gave a tiny nod and hid in her hood. All night she had been worried about whether Malchior would come and bail her out. She hadn't thought about how he would react when he actually did. She was starting to get nervous about what he would do.
The group reached the end of the hallway which opened out to a huge lobby. Gar and Vic went off to sign some things. Jinx started to follow when She noticed Raven freeze. In the center of the lobby stood a young man with dye white hair and piercing blue eyes. Slowly, almost mechanically, Raven walked up to Malchior. She braced herself for whatever he would throw at her.
Looking down on her disdainfully, Malchior said calmly. "Silly girl. you should know not to get in trouble. Your lucky I had enough money leftover from the apartment to bail you out."
Raven gave a tiny smile.
"we got it?"
Malchior returned her smile and embraced Raven, lifting her off her feet. He placed her down and kissed the scar on her forehead. "I already signed you out dearest." He said to her kindly. Malchior put his arm around Raven and started to lead her away. He paused and turned to Jinx.
"Oh Jinx, Seemore bailed you out. He'll be here any minute." he said ruefully. Jinx looked away and took a seat on the bench to wait
Gar and Vic had finished signing out and got their stuff back. The two started for the double doors when Gar stopped and grabbed Vics arm.
"Whats up grass stain?" asked Vic. Gar gave a exasperated sigh. "I uh just wanted to say i'm sorry. I shouldn't have gotten in a fight and I certainly shouldn't have gotten you involved."
Vic smiled. "It's no problem really, you weren't in your right mind. All that matters is that you apologized." Vic started off again but again Gar stopped him. "You sure its alright? Look I got a lot of money, I can compensate you if you want. Hell I can hire an official looking guy to tell your wife you were in a government conspiracy!"
"Look really its fine."
"... with mafia robots and illegal aliens from the planet zargog and..."
Vic rolled his eyes. "you sound like my eight year old sons!"
Gar gave a sheepish laugh and awkwardly stuck his hand out. Vic smiled and shook it heartily. "your all right pal." Vic gave Gar one last smile before he pushed through the double door where a stern looking woman with dark hair and full lips was waiting with a mini van. Gar saw Vic give the woman a sheepish smile. She rolled her eyes and grabbed his ear, pulling him in to the car.
Shooting back one last look, Gar followed. Outside Terra stood beside his green porsche. Her hair was messy and she was wearing the same clothes from the previous day. The two kissed for a brief moment before Gar pulled away quickly. "Um thanks for bailing me out babe." he said rubbing his neck. "whatever. just wanted to get you out of there before one of our rents found out."
Gar nodded along and looked away. when he saw something that made him bolt back to the station.
Malchior and Raven exited the station together. suddenly Malchior spun Raven around and grabbed her shoulders hard. Ravens face contorted in pain as her previous cuts started bleeding again. "How could you let this happen?" demanded Malchior, his normal calm voice suddenly more sinister.
"They held a gun to me what could I do?" Ravens normal monotone suddenly was twinged in panic.
"After all I do for you. For us! Are you trying to mess it up sweet Raven?" Malchiors grip got tighter and tighter. Too tight!
"I'm sorry! I won't..."
"Dont. Insult. Me. Raven. Dearest."
A hand shot out and slapped Raven across the face. She stumbled sideways and Malchior shoved her down into the side of the building.
"Get away from her!"
Gar came running up followed by some hungover blonde. He pushed Malchior away and pulled Raven up. "Are you ok?" he asked. Raven opened her eyes that had clenched shut. she found herself lost in a pair of concerned green eyes.
"Babe?"asked Terra in a fake sweet voice, pulling Gar away from Raven. "What are you doing?''
"Yeah babe what are you doing?" asked Malchior. "This is a personal affair."
"This is a personal affair" mocked back Gar in a fake british accent. "Its not ok for you to beat someone up!"
"its none of you business!"
Gar jumped at the voice form behind him. Raven had spoken. "He wasn't beating me up you ignoramus. And what goes on between me and my boyfriend is none of your business. I hardly know you!"
The young man was taken aback by Ravens rage. Malchior smirked. "Good one dear. Lets go, seems like this man is so unhygienic he is growing mold in his hair." Raven gave a weak chuckle and started to walk with Malchior. He extended his arm for her shoulder but she leered away. Malchior snatched her hand, making her wince.
Terra rolled her eyes. "C'mon Gar, we dont have to hang with the likes of them."
Gar looked once more with concern at Raven before letting Terra drag him to his car
It was almost dark. Jinx had been sitting on the bench forever.
"You alright?"
Jinx sat up. That red head officer was staring down at her.
"Speak to me and i'll bite you." She grumbled back.
Without care, Wally sat down next to Jinx. "Weren't you bailed out this morning?"
"I said i'd bite you."
"baby you can nibble me anyway." smirked Wally leaning in. Jinx blushed and shoved Wally away in panic. "relax I was joking."
"Thats not something you joke about officer." said Jinx, emphasizing his title. Jinx looked down with her hands folded in her laps. They sat in silence for a while. Wally looked over to Jinx and noticed that she looked... sad.
"You sure your alright? Who bailed you out."
Jinx glared at him. then with a sigh, she mumbled. "My friend Seemore was supposed to come."
"oh"
They sat in silence for a little longer. "Where are you gonna go?" asked Wally.
Jinx shrugged. "Doesn't matter." wally turned to Jinx. "yeah it matters. You need to go somewhere."
"Guess i'll go back to the HIVE."
Wally gave her a weird look. "Whats that?"
"The bridge. Cause of the shape of the beams and stuff..." Jinx trailed away. Wally looked concerned. "Jinx. Its not ok for you to be living under a bridge. Why don't you go to a shelter. Theres nothing shameful about seeking help."
"I told you why I won't go into those places" She grumbled, staring at her feet like her mud splattered snow boots were the most interesting thing in the world. "That wasn't real though was it?" asked Wally.
Jinx gave him a angry look. "Of course it was real! do you think... Your baiting me aren't you? You bastard!" Jinx raised a hand to smack Wally, but she stopped herself quickly and put her hand in her lap.
"If theres something wrong with those places, you should tell people like me. We can make it better."
Jinx scoffed. "You would never listen."
Wally smirked and put an arm around Jinx. "I'll listen to ya babe."
"GET OFF!"
with a shove, Wally slid to the other end of the bench and hit the arm rest. "Relax!" he exclaimed. "Its just a joke!" Jinx was fuming "Its not a joke."
"Why?"
"Im Nineteen!"
Wally froze. "Your nineteen?" Jinx nodded. "Oh. my. god. I am so sorry I thought you were older. oh my god I was harassing a kid! I am so sorry" Wally was starting to panic. Jinx felt herself blushing slightly. No one had ever really apologized to her. At least not a guy.
"Look its its uh fine." she said awkwardly to the cop in front of her.
"No its not ok! You said no I... Ive dated girls your age but, I don't know its not k either way and you being a teenager just gives it weight." Explained Wally. Jinx just nodded along. "Its fine stupid" she glowered. They returned to their silence. After a while Jinx noted that Wally still hadn't left her alone. He just sat next to her moping. Jinx started to feel a little bad for him. there was a split second when his eyes caught hers. Jinx chanced him a comforting smile before she caught herself.
What am I doing? she thought. Just ignore the son of a bitch.
But Wally had already seen her smile at him and for some reason it made his heart pump lightspeed. He decided to return hers with his big cocky grin.
"Eh hem"
The two looked up. Standing over them was a skinny African American man with a dirty green baseball cap and glasses giving them a questioning look. Probobly cause Wally was just giving the indifferent girl a ridiculously wide smile.
"Seemore." greeted Jinx with a grim demeanor.
"Dude!" said Seemore excitedly. "I'm so glad your ok!"
Jinx rolled her eyes. "Where were you?"
"well I I uh was uh busy..." Said Seemore, nervously eyeing Wallys badge. Jinx got up and folded her arms. "Well you have to sign something before they let me out of the place." Seemore nodded hurriedly and stalked off to the counter.
"So thats Seymour." said Wally, frowning deeply. "Not very bright is he."
Jinx shook her head. "He's good for somethings I guess." She shrugged. "And its Seemore. S-E-E as in to see something. Not Sey as in to say." She corrected him. It was Wallys turn to nod along aloof. "seems kinda nervous." he said suspiciously. Jinx shrugged again.
"You shouldn't be hanging out with people like that Jinx." said Wally, eying Seemore like prey.
"What gives you the right to say that?" Asked Jinx, turning on Wally angrily. Wally put his hands up in surrender. "you just seem to smart for that."
"You ready to go Jinx?" asked Seemore. Jinx glared at Wally. "yeah lets go."
As the pair walked out, Seemore glared back at Wally with a look of jealousy and hatred. Wally gave him a winning smile back and waved.
Seemore and Jinx walked out as the sun set. The two walked in silence until they were at one of the sidewalk on either side of the canal. "So did you see what went down last night?" asked Jinx. "Yeah I saw the whole thing. You know I see everything." Seemore wiggled his glasses. Jinx was not amused. Seemore gave a melancholy sigh and began to recount the raid. "Me and Kyd saw the cops coming when we were coming back from the bar and warned Billy, Gizmo and Mammoth. It was to late for Private." Seemore sadly looked away for a moment. Jinx felt a little pang. Private sometimes hung out with them, but she didn't know him as well as the boys did. "The arrested Shimmer also. It took all of us to keep Mammoth from running out to her. And they also took Angel. Kyds really torn up about that one. Some skinny guy who kinda looked like a monkey got Nikole. I think his name was Officer light or something. When she got taken Gary ran out after and was taken in to. Oh and uh... Argent..." Seemore purposely skipped over Argents name really fast. She was one of Jinxes only other girl friends
Jinx gave a side look at Seemore. With the exception of Private, he didn't really care about the others. Not like Jinx did. They continued walking in silence.
Suddenly Seemore shoved Jinx into the wall of the building behind them and kissed her. Jinx squirmed and tried to get away but Seemore pinned her wrists above her head and squeezed so hard it hurt. Jinx brought up her knee to his stomach and he let go.
"What the heck!" she said. "Seemore I told you I don't like you that way." She said softer. Seemore hit her. and growled. Jinx hit him back and soon the two were fighting. Jinx new from experience that if the fight went on to long Seemore could easily overpower her. Jinx gave Seemore a kick in the shins causing him to release her. She quickly stepped away and folded her arms, thus ending the fight. Jinx would never hit any of the other boys first, but she wasn't afraid to fight back.
As Seemore caught up with her she reminded herself Its not harassment.
Later that night, Gar and Terra were rolling around the bed together. Gar stared down at Terra when there was a little change. Her long blonde hair turned black and short. Her tan skin paler. Gar was looking down at Raven.
It wasn't SO weird. This wasn't the first time he imagined Terra as someone else. Once she was a girl that he only saw for like a second. What was eird was that she didn't change right back. Gar started to think about how Raven would like it. She didn't seem like one to have sex. She seemed like the type that you'd kiss softly yet passionately. Someone who you'd sneak up behind and embrace. Who you would stay up speaking words of love until she allowed you to snuggle with her and she would fall asleep in his arms. someone who...
"Why'd ya stop?"
Gar jumped out of his day dream and scolded himself. How could he imagine a fake relationship around someone he hardly new when he had a girlfriend. That was ridiculous! And slightly perverted.
"oh sorry Terra" he said simply kissing her.
Terra rolled them over on their sides and she propped herself up with her elbow. "so I won't be around tomorrow. Me and my parents are spending the day at Slades mansion."
"Who's Slade?"
"Commissioner Wilson."
"Oh. Ive never seen that guy. Does he ever leave his estate?" Suddenly he got another question. "Why did you call him Slade?"
"He's a family friend. And you met him. At socialite events and stuff. You just weren't paying attention."
Gar smiled devilishly. "You always distract me."
He leaned in for another kiss but Terra gave a sound of disgust and pushed away. "You ruined the moment dumbs. Lets just go to sleep." She grumbled. Gar shrugged and rolled over as sleep over took him.
Well thats it! I really hope you all liked it. Yeah that last paragraph was kinda creepy. This is my first... pg13 fanfic and im not really used to the whole use of words like sex and stuff.
Just to say, Angel was Kyd Wykydd girlfriend in the show, Shimmer is Mammoths sister in the comics and Gary= Gnark.
