"Lian stop!"

Wally said as he quickly sped towards Lian, who was trying to eat Kent's ear. When Kent was saved, he padded over to his food bowl and Lian was on the verge of tears.

"If you wanted some food, you could have just asked." Wally said while putting Lian in her play pen. Artemis watched from afar as Wally quickly made a bottle for her. Since being undercover, she'd check up on him to make sure he got his homework done or fed Kent.

She was fully aware that he could handle these things but she just missed him. Hearing his voice, watching him work on projects and take care of Lian on the weekends.

He and Jade have been having longer conversations lately. Mostly about her but it wouldn't be an awkward silence anymore, just talking. But whenever Jade said too much about Artemis she'd cry silently while Wally comforted her. It was etched on his face that he couldn't stand having to lie to her.

Artemis notice that she's been thinking for longer than she thought because Lian was already sleeping and Wally was about to take a shower. She hasn't held Lian in months. She was learning how to stand and she would pull on the table cloth which got Wally so upset that he took it off completely. She just wanted to touch her. Look at her small body breath quietly.

Before she could even process anything, she was crawling in her house through the kitchen window. Kent was about to bark but she already took off her necklace and mask so that he could recognize her. He ran all around the house trying to jump on her. She then reluctantly picked him up as he licked her face happily. "I know, I know I missed you too." she whispered.

She didn't want Wally to know that she was here or she'd never leave. The last time he caught her spying their innocent make- out session turned into a major workout in the bedroom.

The archer put him down and strode towards the play pen. Lian's thumb was halfway through her mouth and she was on her stomach. Artemis felt her soft cheek underneath her trembling fingertips. She so cute she thought.

"You know even Jade knocks now."

She turned around only to see Wally who looked liked he just stepped out of the shower. His white towel was barely hanging off his hips and his V line showing deliciously. His fiery hair was already wet but not matted down on his head like usual. He was casually standing against the kitchen table with his arms crossed.

"Wanna tell me why your here?" He asked with a smirk on his non longer freckled face. He knew Nightwing wouldn't like it if she was there.

"I miss you." the blonde archer said.

Within seconds she and Wally were in their old bedroom. His towel long gone and he was unzipping her Tigress suit.

DING DONG!

He stopped. Wally just froze in space. Artemis noticed his current position so she gave him a light kiss "I have to go." she whispered. He pressed their foreheads together. "I know. When will you be back?"

The question surprised her. Coming into her house wasn't even planned. But she couldn't just leave him hanging.

DING DONG! DING DONG! DING DONG!

"Roy always gets impatient when he comes to pick her up." Wally said with a chuckle. Artemis couldn't help but smile at his statement. So he quickly zips her up and she clasp her necklace into place. She took her mask and headed out towards the kitchen window from whence she came. She was almost out but a firm grasp stopped her.

"When?" He asked with pleading eyes. She can tell he hasn't slept in months because he was so worried about her welfare.

"Soon, I promise." she gave him one last kiss and disappeared into the endless night. He watched her silhouette blend into the darkness.

"Spitfire." He said with a chuckle.
