A Night in Paris

A/N:Hello! I'm Jillian :) Please keep an open mind while reading this, as it is my very first story on here.

-Slight OC'S, but they don't play a very big role. Mainly about Artemis and Wally. Rated T for language, and I apologize in advance for anyone being OOC.

M'gann knew that look on Artemis' face. It was the same look she got, usually during missions, when the bad guys knew where they were hiding. It was also the look that she got when the team had failed a mission. Worst of all, it was a the look she gets when she's hurt either by a teammate, or anyone/anything else. The look, M'gann defined it as a look of... pain? Worry? Shame? She never really could identify it, but she knew that it was something bad. "Artemis? You alright?" She asked, putting her knife down. Conner and Wally both looked up, staring at Artemis. "Yeah, I'm fine," Artemis said, trying to hold back tears. "I just- gotta go." And with that, she took and heavy breath, and walked out of the room.

"Oh no..." M'gann said, looking worried. "What was that all about?" Wally asked. "I'm afraid that Drew might've bailed on her... again." She said. "Heh. Figures. I told you guys he was a jerk. But guess who didn't listen to me!" Wally said, putting his feet on the coffee table. "Wally!" M'gann said. "This is serious! Artemis is hurt." "Okay, so what do you want ME to do about it?" Wally exclaimed. "I don't know, go... talk to her or something. Do anything to cheer her up!" Said M'gann. Wally looked at her for a moment, M'gann was giving him puppy dog eyes. "How could I say no to that face..." He thought. "Fine. Whatever. I'm doing this for you." Wally, said, getting off of the couch. M'gann smiled. "Yay! Now hurry, go find her!" She said practically pushing him out of the room.

And with that, he was on his way.

Wally stepped outside. The cold, brisk air meet his face. "Brrr..." she shivered, letting his breath create steam. He put his hood on. He wasn't exactly dressed for the weather. He had a brown jacket on, (close to the one Artemis was wearing) a normal, black t-shirt under it, that had a logo of some skating company, gray sweatpants, and normal red sneakers. He looked around.

"Where could Artemis be..." He wondered. He finally saw her, sitting on the beach alone, skipping rocks out into the ocean. Her knees were up to her chest and she was resting her head on them. Wally felt sympathy for her, and stared to walk over to where she was sitting. As he got closer, he noticed she was also shivering. "Hey." Wally said. Artemis almost jumped back into reality, as if she was deep in thought. "Oh, hi." She said, standing up. When they stood together, he was about 4 or 5 inches taller than her. Not that he had a problem with that, because he liked her frame. "What are you doing here?" She asked, but it sounded more like a statement. "Heh, I was about to ask you the same question." Wally responded, looking out into the ocean. "Um," Artemis started, shoving her hands in her pocket. "I uh, I don't know." She said, looking uncomfortable. "He didn't bail on you, did he?" Wally said, facing her. He wanted her to look at him, but he knew that wasn't going to happen. She's to stubborn. Artemis shrugged, and looked at the ground. "I'm sorry." Wally said, knowing he was right. Drew didn't text her to take a rain check, he texted her saying that they were over. This made Wally a little happy inside, but he didn't say anything else.

"Why should you be..." Artemis mumbled, sitting back down again. "What?" Wally asked, sitting next to her. "I mean, why should you be sorry." She said. "Well, it's just that, it must hurt. Liking someone, and then them telling you they want to break up." Wally bit his lip; that came out wrong. Artemis sighed. "No-no, wait, that's not what I meant," He started, but Artemis cut him off. "No, I know what you mean. And it's fine, I'm used to it anyway." She replied. "What do you mean?" He asked. She stayed silent for a minute, then continued to talk. "It's just that- my entire life- everyone I ever loved, always left me. My father, my sister, Drew... probably soon my mother..." she said, deep in thought again. She licked her lips and stood up. "Well, it doesn't matter anymore. I knew I shouldn't have fell for him." she said, as she started to walk away.

She wasn't exactly sure why she just told Kid Dufus something really personal, but she wanted to get it off her chest. Just then, she felt a hand on her shoulder. It wasn't to forceful, but it had a tight enough grip to catch her off guard. "What?" she asked, brushing away his hand. "I just-" Wally didn't know what to say. He realized that what she just confessed to him was really personal, and it didn't feel right to just let her walk away. But what should he do? "Um, I just, well, uh," Wally said clearing his throat. "D-do you want to like, do something tonight?" Wally asked nervously. His voiced cracked when he said "tonight."

Artemis looked around, inspecting his face. This made his checks uncontrollably hot. "I don't know, Wally, I think I just need some time to-" but she was cut off by him. "Please? It will be fun and you can get your mind off that jerk, and we just hang out, like just the two... of us... I mean, o-only if you want to, but if you feel like you don't... I mean, I understand..." Wally said, totally losing his confidence in the last part of the statement. He rubbed his neck. Artemis looked at him one more time, and finally gave in. "Fine Kid Dork." She said with a slight smirk. Wally let out a huge sigh of relief he didn't even know he was holding in. "Great, so uh, where you do want to go?" he asked. "Artemis shrugged. Doesn't matter, you pick. Wally knew that if he didn't pick, Artemis was never going to. He thought about it.

"Hmm... some place that's not cheap..." he thought. "I want her to remember this..."

"Oh! I know!" Wally said excitedly. "What?" Artemis asked. "Lets go to Paris." He said with a smirk.
