Desert Dreams

Wally Rudolph West was an Idiot, why was he an Idiot you ask? Because it has to do with the fact that he was blissfully unaware of two things about Two Very special people to him...Even more special than he would think.

See it all started when a hyperactive young side-Partner, met the new "Partner" of both Aquaman and Green Arrow.

Kaldur'ahm aka Aqualad/Kaldur and Roy Harper/Speedy/Red Arrow/ Sir Throws-Hats-a lot.

Both Partners had been slightly put off by Wally's hyperness, his chattiness and his quick ability to accept them both with open arms as his new "Best Friends beside Robin." Also, his quick reveal of his secret identity had them reeling too, which is what cinched the whole dilemma.

They were in Love.

THAT'S RIGHT! Hard, Tough, Moody Bad Boy Roy Harper and Diligent, Soft Spoken, loyal and gentle Kaldur were both in love with Wally.

It seems silly, two prepubescent boys falling for a boy they barely knew more than two weeks. but the instant he took off his cowl and smiled brightly at them...they were lost or doomed considering how you look at it.

For both of them it hit them differently.

Roy...had lived a tough life. Mother dying before knowing her, Father killed in forest fire and Raised only by Indians, not that he didn't appreciate BraveBow. But...it wasn't easy to find anything bright and happy in his life.

But when he stared into those green emerald eyes, saw that sprinkle of freckles across his nose, and really, really stared at that shock of red hair...so similar and yet different from his own. He knew he wanted to be with Wally West for the rest of his life, though later they would change it to Wally Harper, if Roy got his way.

For Kaldur, it was sorta the same, the hair and eyes and Freckles. But for different reasons.

Kaldur hadn't much experience with surface dweller's or the variety of different skin tones. His own hair and skin was often an oddity among the other children, making him stand out, but Wally seemed to stand out and crave it.

Always trying to call Kaldur's attention to him, whether grabbing his hand to pull him somewhere, with a loud carefree laugh, which was endearing.

Or just simply him coming onto a roof top, and his bright glaring red hair glowing in the moonlight, catching his attention.

So, it his was his freckles, which stood out the most, and seemed to really hold his minds focus. As did his red hair, it always fascinated him, the red hair so few had in his world, though not so rare it was treated as a curse.

But Wally's...his just seemed to vibrate life. Too true at times, as Wally did vibrate, but only when really excited or emotional. Often the former, as Wally was really excitable, the excitement reaching his eyes. Making them shine like the stars above the ocean, in the less populated and most secluded part of the sea.

It was when Wally got into an accident, knocked into a wall and rendered unconscious, that while the Flash and Aquaman dealt with the attacker. Kaldur leaned over Wally to try to rouse him. Seeing his green eyes slowly open was the happiest Kaldur ever felt...and it was at that moment, he knew he was hopelessly in love with him.

And of course as you know from the previous chapter that Kaldur and Roy had found out the other was in love with Wally, and the results were humorous, at least to Robin, who watched from the side-lines, popcorn in hand. And as you know they did come to an agreement.

Share Wally and kill anyone who tried to take their Speedster.

And now that we've got that settled, back to Wally being an idiot.

Now when it came to science the Speedster was a genius, even Batman was impressed at times when Wally let his big science brain shine, but when it came to dating Wally was an idiot.

A cute idiot in Kaldur's and Roy's opinion but an idiot none the less.

How the teenage not notice the two flirting with him, when Wally himself was a flirt was forever a mystery to Robin, I mean, how do you miss those caresses, lingering looks, hell Roy had freakin groped Wally's ass once, in front of Barry, which by the way took a lot of balls to do, and Wally had laughed it off.

"Maybe you guys should just molester him" Dick suggested from where he lodged on the sofa

They were at Roy's apartment, contemplating on why Wally was an idiot.

"Preferably not in front of Barry….or Bruce" Dick then added.

Between Barry and Bruce, both Dick and Wally were lucky they could even leave the house, let alone go on missions.

"It would probably be best" Kaldur agreed.

"The molesting part? Or not in front of Barry and Bruce part?" Roy asked.

"Both"

Dick chuckled before he resumed his channel surfing, half-listening to his friend's plan on how to corner and molester Wally's brains out.

"Let's see him laugh that off" the Boy Wonder thought with a grin.


Long slender fingers caressed the picture; stormy grey eyes gleamed with lust, and possessiveness, taking in the fiery red hair and fierier green eyes, the slim runner's built wrapped in yellow and red spandex and goggles.

All of it was to be his soon.

Count Vertigo smirked at the thought, his mind going back to the day, to the moment when he knew he had to have him.

It was winter, November the 11th to exact, and he had planned to get rid of his little niece once and for all, yes he was aware that the Justice League had gotten wind of his plan, and he had expected them to send Flash. Not KidFlash.

He had been amused more then insulted.

Until he finally talked to the boy after defeating him in the garage, he couldn't understand how a person could look vulnerable yet defiant at the same time, he felt lust for the boy and his seemly glowing eyes, and when he found out that he had been tricked, he was furious yes, but also impressed, he had been tricked.

This clown, this child had tricked him, defeated him.

Even while in prison (what an annoyance that had been) he's constant thoughts were of KidFlash and his hunting eyes, and when he got out of prison three months later (He may no longer have his immunity, but he still had connections) he had a goal.

Wally West, KidFlash, was to be his.
