Nathan stood in a corner of the grand ballroom in Wayne manor nervously. He glanced around the room eyeing it. His eyes fell on Mark, he was surrounded by a group of three girls. Nathan shook his head, he couldn't bother him while he was in the zone he would kill him. He had one other hope he looked around finally his eyes landed on her. He checked to make sure the coast was clear then quickly dashed across the room to Melanie's side

She had been talking to her mother and his mother "Hey mom, hey Aunt Arty. I'm just going to borrow Mel for a second if that's okay" the 14-year-old grabbed his friend's wrist and pulled her away before any of the females could respond.

Artemis smiled and shook her head "They're getting so big" she smiled

Barbara nodded "I know, I can't believe they'll be starting high school in a few months"

"Yes, I remember when they all 3 used to run through the sprinklers naked" Artemis laughed

Meanwhile Nathan continued to run with Melanie out of the ballroom and down the hall. Melanie stopped and pulled her wrist from his grasp. "Nathen what are you doing!" she shouted

Nathan looked at her panicked "Shh not so loud she'll hear you" he said waving his hands

"Who will hear me?" Melanie questioned

Nathan kept his eyes glued on the entrance of the ballroom, he jumped when he saw her.

"No time to explain" he said quickly grabbing her wrist and taking Melanie down the hall to one of the small offices of the manor he shut the door behind him and cursed under his breath when he realized he had chosen a room without a lock

"Now explain" Melanie said crossing her arms and tapping her foot.

Nathan let out a sigh "One of the business partners of Wayne industries brought his granddaughter Gina, she's 14 like us" he said

Melanie eyed him "And?" she asked

"And, she's driving me crazy she won't leave me alone." He said throwing his hands up

Melanie shook her head "You're not interested?"

Nathan shrugged "At first I tried to talk to her cause I thought maybe it was just my shyness but then she started only talking about my family's money and her voice is squeaky"

Melanie laughed "And why do you need me?" she questioned

Nathan fumbled his fingers "Well Mark was busy and I thought maybe you could help me get rid of her" he said nervously

They watched as the doorknob began to turn, Nathans Robin skills kicked in and he quickly grabbed Melanie, flipping them over the couch and falling behind it, he landed on top of her and used his elbows to keep his body from touching hers. He brought a finger to his lips signaling for her to be quiet.

"Nathanial? Nathanial? Are you in here, I wanted to show you the Porsche that I want for my 16th birthday" a high-pitched voice could be heard. After a couple minutes, they heard the door close.

They waited a few more minutes just to make sure the coast was clear before getting up

Melanie let out a laugh that she had been holding in "Nathanial?" Where did she get that from?" she said

Nathan shrugged "I guess she thinks that's my full name, which obviously it isn't"

Melanie nodded "Oh I know, Nathan Wayne Grayson" she teased using his full name

Nathan laughed "Like your one to talk Melanie Oliver West" he teased back

Melanie rolled her eyes "I still don't get why my parents chose not to give me the mentors last name treatment, they gave Mark Allen"

Nathan smirked at her "Maybe because you're not a Queen" he teased

Melanie stuck her tongue out at him "If I wasn't wearing a dress right now Id fight you"

Nathan laughed "And I'd win, come on we should make our way down the hall. My parents need to see me or else they'll get suspicious" he groaned

He opened the door and followed Melanie out

When they turned a corner, they ran into Mark

"There you guys are, I've been searching for you everywhere" he said

"Sorry dude, I'm running away from someone" Nathan told him

"You mean that girl you were talking to earlier with the voice of a mouse?" Mark pointed

Melanie nodded "That's the one"
Mark laughed "I don't blame you, I'll help you" he said beginning to walk with them

They saw Gina from a distance and quickly made a run for it leading to a dead-end hallway.

"Where are we going to go?" Nathan panicked hearing Gina begin to come closer

"Mark make a distraction" Melanie said grabbing Nathan by his shirt and pulling him into the nearest door which was a coat closet.

"What are we doing?" Nathan asked confused

Melanie looked at him "Trying to help you bozo, whatever happens just go with it. Okay?"

Nathan nodded and remained quiet sensing that Gina was now in front of the door, the two of them listened in on what was being said outside.

"Hey there gorgeous" Mark said as Gina approached him

Gina ignored him

"Are you looking for someone?" Mark asked sweetly

Gina shook her head "I don't think you could help me"

Mark put on his best smile "Sure I can. I know a lot of people, just tell me who it is and we can look for them together" he said placing a hand on her shoulder

The girl shrugged Marks hand off her "I don't think so; my guy is rich. He wouldn't associate with a low life like you and neither do I"

That did it, Melanie swung the closet door open and stomped toward Gina "Low life, who do you think you're calling a low life." She said staring the girl down.

Gina looked around Melanie at Nathan standing dumbfounded in the closet. He slowly stepped out

"Why were you in the closet with him?" Gina asked pointing to Nathan

Melanie rolled her eyes "Are you so money hungry that, that is all you got out of what I said?" she said looking at Gina

Gina fought to keep a straight face and act as if she wasn't intimidated by Melanie "Your right but if you think your making me jealous by pretending he's your boyfriend your wrong. Because I know he isn't"

Melanie clenched her fists "Your right, he's not my boyfriend and since were friends he never will be but" she walked over to Nathan who had grown during the school year to be the exact same height as her

"What are you doing" Nathan whispered low enough for just them to hear

Melanie shook her head "Just go with it" she whispered before grabbing the back of his head and pushing his face toward hers pressing their lips together after a few seconds Melanie pulled away and walked back toward Gina

"You'll never get to do that, because Nathan here actually has a heart and would rather be with low life's like us then high life's like you" Melanie said poking Gina's chest

Gina stomped her foot and turned walking away "Daddy were leaving!" she yelled making her way back to the ballroom. Her voice echoing throughout the manor

"I don't think you'll have to worry about her anymore, come on boys lets go see if there's any cake left" Melanie said casually walking away

Mark and Nathan didn't move though, they were both still shocked by the scene that had just unfolded

"Did Mel just.." Mark stuttered

"Yup" Nathan said in a shocked tone

"Was it your first?" Mark asked quietly as they began following Melanie

Nathan nodded "Yeah"

Mark nodded "I'm pretty sure it was Melanie's too." He looked over at his friend "Wait, you didn't enjoy it. Did you?" he asked

Nathan quickly shook his head "No of course not, it just took me by surprise is all"

Mark nodded in understanding as they walked back into the ballroom
