"Whatsgoingon?" Wally murmured as he was woken from his slumber. He felt himself being dragged by the back of his shirt. He looked back and saw Artemis pulling him along the floor of their apartment.

"Awe Man! I fell asleep again." He faced palmed himself. Artemis made a noise of agreement.

"Babe, I'm sorry. Please don't beat me up."

"I'm not going to beat you up."

"Oh, good…so what are you going to do." He got his answer when she threw him outside.

"Babe wait…." The door was slammed in his face. "Babe don't do this." He banged on the door until a box with his things was thrown out the window.

"No…Artemis please don't." He stayed there for about an hour until he decided it would be useless to talk to her tonight. He picked up his stuff and decided to head to Central City.

He took out his phone and dialled.

"Hey Wally, what's going on I wound think you would be one your date." Nightwing answered.

"Yeah you would think."

"You forgot….again. What is wrong with you? Didn't Artemis plan it this time."

"Yeah, I fell asleep again."

"How? You would think you would have more time to sleep since you gave up the hero business to focus on your studies."

"Hello…I'm in College. Not much time to sleep with all the work."

"Hello…you have accelerated metal capabilities. How did you fall behind?"

"Am….Well…"

"Don't bother answered that. I can only imagine what you're up to."

"Talking about dates how are you doing since you and Z split."

"I'm fine, it was mutual. The person I'm really worried about is Kaldur."

"Yeah I saw it on the news…is he okay?"

"Pretty depressed. Not even Rocket can get through to him. And Garth left the team."

"Sucks, and Nightwing…I heard that Black Manta didn't kill Kaldur….because…."

"That's true, Aquaman confirmed it."

"No way."

"I think he's taking that the hardest."

"I would to."

"And to top off the relationship problems Miss Martian and Superboy got in to this huge fight the other night." Wally all most dropped the phone.

"No way…those two it a fight?"

"Neither of them will talk about it. But I think they are over."

"If those two can't stay together what hope is there for the rest of us."

"How did this happen? We all used to so in sync, now the original team is all over the place."

"You know I thing I miss the old days, when we used to go behind the Leagues back, kick bad guys buts, get scolded by batman and the get that one word of approval that would make it worth our while."

"Today the team is bigger than ever and growing every day, but I miss the old days too." Nightwing sighed. "So what are you going to do about Artemis."

"I was trying to not talk about that….she kicked me out." Wally pulled the phone away from his ear as there was burst of static.

"Sorry, I dropped my phone. She really kicked you out?"

"Yeah." He ran a hand through his head

"If the two of two can't make it what hope is there for the rest of us." Wally gave a dry laugh.

"I'm really done for this time aren't."

"Give her some time to cool off." Wally sighed.

"Yeah, hopefully she'll talk to me again and not put an arrow in my head."

"So where are you going to crash."

"I guess I'll head to my folks. I'm on my way the nearest Zata tube now."

"I can call Z, ask her to check in on Artemis."

"I think she would like to see an old face, anything to make her forget what a total jerk I am."

"She'll forgive you."

"Last time I had to almost kill myself to get her talk to me and that was still a month after."

"She'll talk to you again. Just give her time."

"I hope your right dude. Thanks for the talk."

"You're my best bud, that's what I'm here for. Talk to you later."

"Yeah later." Wally hung up. Fifteen minutes later he was walking into his old home. His parents won't home.

"Probably out on a Valentine's date." He mumbled. He wrote a message to his mom telling her he was here. Then he head to his room dropped the box of his stuff on the floor and fell on his bed. God he had a made a mess of things this time.

The next day he tried to talk to Artemis but she ignored all his calls, he notes to her in class and his attempts to talk to her face to face. He was using the Z tubes to travel from Central City to Palo Alto. Every evening after classed he would run to their place and wait for her to come home. And every evening she just walked past him. He had to do something.

CENTRAL CITY

February 22, 01:12 EST.

"Yo, wake up." Wally opened his eyes and screamed. Well he tried to scream but a hand covered his mouth.

"Now, now we don't need you waking up the entire house."

"Jade what are you doing here?" He said when she uncovered his mouth.

"I could ask you the same thing?"

"Your sister kicked me out."

"I know numb-skull. Why do you think I'm here?"

"I'm hoping it has nothing to do with killing me or hurting me."

"As much as I would love to make you suffer for hurting my sister, she would kill me if I hurt you. So I'm here to do the next best thing, try and get you two back together."

"Really? You want to help me."

"No, but I do want to help Artemis. For some reason that I will never understand she really cares about you."

"Not anymore. I've tried to talk to her every day since she kicked me out and well let's say I could get more out of Blockbuster."

"You're going about this all wrong. Look do you know the one thing Artemis always wanted."

"I bet it has something to do with archery."

"Wow, you are as big an idiot as everyone says."

"Jade can we get to the point."

"Fine." Jade told him her idea.

"You think it will work." He asked.

"If this doesn't work nothing will." She went over to his window.

"Jade, thanks."

"If you ever mention this, I will cut out your tongue."

"Noted." She left. Wally lay back and watched his clock. He would go and get it now but he doubted he would find a place open now on this hemisphere.

PALO ALTO

February 22, 10:30 EST.

"Good morning sir, how can I be of service."

"I'm looking for a gift for my girlfriend."

"Well I find these are popular with the ladies." He pointed to the nearest isle. Wally shook his head.

"I'm sure she won't like any of these, they are all really cute, but my girl isn't a 'cute' kind of girl."

"Well how about those, quite majestic looking if you ask me."

"Well, I don't know they are very nice, but….wait that one in the back."

"That one? Are you sure?"

"Yes, it's perfect."

"If you say so."

PALO ATLO

February 22, 16:20 EST

As Artemis walked up to her apartment she noticed Wally wasn't standing by the foot of the stairs. She had to admit she was saddened. Maybe he had given up. She stopped at the foot of the stairs and took out her phone. Should she call him. She was going to make up with him at some point, but would he want to get back together. A scratching noise made her look up. There was box at the top of the stairs. She approached it. The noises were coming from the box. She kneed down and opened it. The most adorable puppy she had ever seen jumped out of the box.

"Oh, aren't you the cutest thing." She picked the tiny pup. It looked like a pug/pit-bull mix. It had a grey coat with a white stripe by its nose. She brought it up to her face and it licked her nose. She giggled. There was a ribbon around its neck with a note attached.

I'm sorry. It said. She stood up.

"Come on out Wally." She said. He walked out from behind the house. He looked at her but didn't say anything. She beckoned him with one finger. He was up the steps before she could blink.

"Come here you totally moron." She said. She held out one hand for him, holding the puppy in the other. He hugged her tightly lifting her off her feet.

"Whoa do you want to crush our new puppy."

"Our?"

"Yes you can move back in." she said with an eye roll. He kissed her and she almost dropped the puppy. When he pulled back he looked happier than she had seen him in a long time.

"I'm so sorry babe. I promise I'll never forget Valentine's again."

"Don't make promises you can't keep."

"But I will keep this one." He kissed her again. She never expected him to keep the promise but he never broke it.


And so ends 'Spitfire Valentine's' I hope you enjoyed it. Congratulations to Myallbymyself123456789 who figured out what the name of the restaurant meant. It's still open for anyone who wants to guess, just sent me a PM, if you think you got it.
