Disclaimer: owning young justuce would be a privilege. Sadly a privilege I'm untitled to. But. What ever,please review I'd love to know what needs improved (all of the story) and what you like (none of the story) on with it...
chapter seven:
As the clock chimed seven,artemis waited nearby a zeta tube wally had arranged to meet her at. Late as ever,he finally showed up. Surprisingly he was wearing a suit,and a red tie,which he swore he didn't borrow from speedy-red arrow.
"Wow,baywatch you scrub up well." Artemis commented as she stepped into the zeta tube with him.
"You seem surprised. You don't look so bad yourself either." Wally complimented,as he took her hand,helping her in the very narrow zeta tube. She was wearing a silk green dress,very flattering to her figure,and wally even complimented the way it brought out her eyes. It seemed mushy and cliche but it made artemis blush. And that was a good sign.
"Recognised: kid flash-B02"
"Recognised: artemis-B07"
"Destination: star city."
"Star city that's where you're taking me?" Artemis asked wally,after the computer recognition.
"I told you,I'm taking you to Marino's." Wally answered,as they appeared in an old telephone box in star city.
"I've never been. I thought it was somewhere a little nicer." Artemis commented as she opened the door. Stepping out.
Wally followed. "You live in Gotham,don't criticise. Anyways Marinos is somewhere nice,it's on the pier." Wally said as he took artemis's hand and pulled her to the pier.
It was nicer than artemis was expecting. The dark night sky complimented the waves of the ocean,the moonlight mirrored on the waves. The dim lights made the restaurant cosy,with a romantic twang coming from the candles and music.
"Wow,you've really out done yourself,baywatch." Artemis said looking around at the mildly full restaurant. Watching the violin player walk by whilst playing. She turned her head to wally. "Okay what did you do? Did you forget the ring? or-"
"Woah,I can't believe you'd accuse me of forgetting,the very nice ring if I say so myself." Wally said as he adjusted his tie. "And I can be romantic. If that's what you're so surprised about."
"Oh,I know. I've seen how romantic you are when it comes to m'gann. Too bad she's dating superboy." Artemis commented,taking a sip of her wine.
"So,where is it?"
"Where's what?" Wally asked.
"The ring. I want to see it."
"Oh-er-well I'm just building up to the right moment. I can't propose before we've eaten,right?"
"Urgh fine. But it better be nice. You haven't prepared a little speech have you?" Artemis asked in a dragging tone.
"I have. But don't worry,it's very interesting." Wally added with a mischievous smirk.
"Wally,what have you-"
"You are ready to order?" The waiter interrupted.
"Sure,I'll have two pepperoni pizzas,one spaghetti bolognese,three sides of onion rings,two garlic breads,and large cheese burger." Wally ordered. The waiter looked at him in disgust. "Oh,and something for the lady."
"I'll just have the...I'll have what he's having." Artemis answered,giving wally a playful look.
The waiter,looked at the pair in disgust and distaste,before taking their orders to the chef.
"Since,when did you eat like a flash?"
"Well,I figured we'd be living together for a while,we might as well attempt to get along." Artemis explained.
"What does that have to do with eating 7x more than the average human?" Wally asked in confusion.
"Oh,it doesn't. I was just curious as to how much of that I could eat."
"Eating competition?" Wally asked mischievously.
"You're on,baywatch." Artemis accepted his challenge,smirking.
The waiter once again interrupted the pair.
"I'm sorry,but we are going to have to move you to a larger table." He said,prompting the pair to move to the bigger table two other waiters were preparing.
They moved gladly. It was a closer table to the window,now they could watch the waves and boats pass by.
It wasn't too long later,that at least six waiters entered the restaurants main. With the couples orders in hand.
"Oh boy am I starving." Wally commented as he watched the plates being placed in front of him.
When the last plate was placed in front of the pair,and the last waiter had walked away.
Wally re-challenged. "Dig in."
The pair began cutting their pizza into slices but were interrupted for the third time that night.
"I don't think you'll be digging anything but your own grave unless you give me back my ring." John Stewart aka green lantern interrupted. Along side him was batman and black canary,who were also dressed in civilians-batman wearing shades to protect his identity.
Wally sheepishly pulled out a ring box handing it to green lantern.
"You were going to propose to me,with green lanterns ring?"
"Erm-"
"Nervy." Artemis settled upon.
"Engaged? Back when I was your age I was no where near commitment." John commented,snatching the ring from wally.
"You still aren't." Canary commented. "Here,if you're going to propose at least use a real engagement ring." Canary said,throwing a black suede box at wally.
Wally caught the box single handedly.
"Oliver thought he'd get into some trouble. It was here as a precaution." Canary explained.
"Hey!" Wally moaned,his arms flailing in the air.
"Thanks Dinah." Artemis replied softly.
The four looked at wally. Staring at him for some time before he finally caught on.
"Oh,you want me to propose now?"
"That would be necessary." Batman deadpanned,at the same time the other three cheered..
"Yes."
Wally,stumbled before getting down on his knee. He opened the black suede box to reveal a silver ring,a round diamond placed in the centre,smaller diamonds placed around the sides,enhancing the size of the larger diamond.
"Will you,artemis crock,make me the most miserable person alive and marry me?"
"How miserable?"
"Extremely."
"Well,anything to torture you,yes." Artemis accepted,placing the ring on her finger,and hugging wally to make it convincing.
Canary,batman and green lantern walked away,with slight smiles on there faces-even a small one graced batman's.
"I can't believe they were gonna use my ring as an engagement ring." Green lantern sourly commented.
"I can't believe that idiot stole your ring off your finger without you even noticing." Batman deadpanned.
"Yes,how did he get that ring of yours which you keep on 24/7?" Dinah asked.
"I was...busy...with hawk woman..we were sorting out league things." Green lantern excused. As they walked across the pier,heading to the car park.
"I should have brought the bat mobile."
An: this chapter was devoted to spitfire,please tell me if I've did it right,they aren't really my prime ship,so I'm unsure of how the act towards each other. Anyway thanks for reading,please review. Sorry for any mistakes or if it doesn't make sense.
