Culture(Wally West/Kaldur)

"What's this?" Wally asked as he looked down at the small silver box with a blue bow that Kaldur had just handed him.

"Open it and found out." Kaldur told him and gave him a small smile. Wally stared at him for a moment, before shrugging and slipping the blue bow off he carefully wrapped that around his wrist, before opening the lid and peeking in. He blinked then opened it all the way before grinning and saying "You got me cookies!? Thanks!" and grabbed one to quickly eat. He couldn't help but let out a low moan as he felt the warm, chocolate chip cookies, with the chocolate still melting hit his tongue. "These are amazing!" Wally half shouted as he quickly ate two more, before looking at Kaldur and saying "Do you want one?"

"No, I made them for you." Kaldur told him gently "please enjoy them though."

"Are you sure?"

"Of course."

"Well... Thanks then." Placing the lead back on Wally quickly shot forward and wrapped an arm around Kaldur giving him a strong hug before turning and zipping away to finish the cookies some place else. Kaldur stood still for a moment a large smile forming on his face, before he brought of a folded piece of paper from his pocket and unfolded it. He stared at it a moment, looking over his plan to court and date Wally once more, before swallowing in fear as he saw that the next step was to ask the Flash permission to date his nephew.

Kaldur breathed in slowly, trying not to show his fear as he felt sweat start to form on the palms of his hands. Clearing his throat Kaldur said "Flash."

Flash looked up from were he shood checking over the new security measures Batman had put in place. He had just finished testing them and if the bruising on his side said anything, they were working. "What's up Kaldur? Is something wrong?"

"No. Nothing is wrong, I just need to ask you something. It has to do with Wally."

Flash's body went from calm, to tense ready to run in seconds. "Is something wrong? Has-something-happened?" Flash was quick to ask trying to remember all that he knew Wally was doing today. All he could remember was that he was suppose to be training with the Team, though the kids have been known to run off and do their own missions. Kaldur placed a hand on Flash shoulder gently gaining his attention once more, and snapping him out of his vibrating with energy state. Stepping back having decided that having a little room between him and Flash would be nest said "Nothing is wrong with Wally, Flash."

"Oh, then what is it? Do you need me to help with his training or something? Does he have to much energy and I should take him on a trip to China?... I actually need to do that anyways, I promised Hal Chinese food if he won that bet..."

"No, no it is nothing like that. I um" Kaldur paused finding himself at a lose for a moment his usual calmness leaving him like the wind. "I would like your permission to court and date your partner Wally."

"What...?" Flash said slowly his head tilting slightly that once soft, warm smile gone turning into an icy dangerous one. "I'm sorry, but I think I heard you wrong. Could you please repeat that."

"You did not hear wrong. I would like your permission to court and date Wally." Kaldur said and found himself standing a little taller, using everything that he had been taught not to cower as the Flash's gaze even behind his mask changed to something more dangerous. Memories of a few stories his King had told him before of the Flash before he came up onto the surface world. The stories had always been amazing to hear, except for one where both Flash and Kid Flash had been helping his King, when Kid Flash had been hurt and he hadn't gotten up in a minute or so. Something in Flash had changed from that nice guy, who could calm the Justice League down if needed, he became a man who had the villain begging to be taken away to prison, he had become what his King and other members of the League called the 'Demon Flash', and Kaldur found himself staring at it.

Kaldur didn't even have the time to react as Flash moved. He could feel a hand grabbing the back of his shirt, his feet being lifted, wind, and then all was still while he felt like he wanted to barf. "I don't instead the Cave is the place to have this conversation do you?" Flash asked his voice sickly sweet, as he stood holding Kaldur by the back of his shirt like a mother cat holding her little kitten. Kaldur stood hanging over the edge of the mountain, trying to figure out how Flash had gotten him up here in less then a couple seconds. He had never seen Wally move that quickly, or had Wally he he had never notice?

"So your going to shut up, and listen to what I have to say, because I'm only going to say this once and well if you don't get it. Guess Aquaman's going to have to find a new partner." Kaldur nodded and couldn't help the gulp that came out of him, even when his hands went up and grabbed onto Flash's arm, he knew that if Flash wanted him dead, it wouldn't from a drop down the mountain. "Good. Now Wally is like a son to me, and since he is also my partner that means if you hurt him in any way. Whether it be from a fight, you forgot something, or you break his heart. I will find you. Nothing will stop me from hunting you down, not the League, not even if you hide at the bottom of the ocean, I will tear this world apart if you hurt him. Understood?"

Kaldur couldn't find any words in him and just nodded a yes.

"Good. You can... Court Wally if you still want, but remember I will always be watching. Even in death, I will be watching and be ready to kill you if needed." Flash said before dropping Kaldur safely on the ground at his feet, before patting his head and zipping down the mountain in a red blur. Kaldur sat there for a moment heart racing and found himself somehow knowing that he had gotten off easy with just a threat, no a promise and being hung over the edge of the mountain. "I won't hurt him." Kaldur said to empty air around him, and held in a shiver as if Flash was still there glaring at him. Something told Kaldur that he would be watching his back for a long time.

If for the next couple months almost a year, he would jump at fierce breezes while courting and starting to slowly date Wally, well no one could say anything if they've ever faced the 'Demon Flash'.
