A/N: So, I just finished editing the last two chapters and I was like, 'huh, its over,' and then I almost cried. This is the shortest amount of time its taken me to write a story in my entire life. I'm so glad I finished so soon! Sooo, I've already started the sequel. Hehehe, I need a life.

By the way, xLittleMissReality: You are correct XD

P.S. Has anyone else had trouble accessing their accounts? Because I couldn't login all day. That's why I'm updating so late. Somethings wrong with FF . net :(

Disclaimer: Do I own Young Justice? I think I can safely answer 'no' to that question.

Day 3: The Winner

"Sooo, where were you?" Zatanna asked as she crossed her arms and looked carefully from Artemis to Wally as if she could read minds.

"I got lost," Artemis said simply, "Found Flash Junior here sleeping in the courtyard."

"Its Kid Flash," Wally corrected her but the girls ignored him so he muttered, "So much for starting over."

"Suuure," Zatanna said with a wry grin, "Let's hurry and get to the Ceremony. If we don't we'll be the last ones there!"

"Why rush? Its not like we're participating," Artemis said as she laughed at her friends enthusiasm. She hadn't really meant it when she had said that Wally would win best costume. You had to enter to win those kinds of things. Unless- "No."

"Yes," Zatanna said, "Dick entered all of you and I entered myself, Roy and- Ugh, Cameron, but he's been disqualified."

Wally stiffened at Cameron's name. He had been happily munching on a fistful of pocky that Artemis had supplied him with but at the very mention of Artemis' ex he almost choked.

"Wally? Wally, are you okay?" Artemis demanded, standing with her hands on her hips, "I told you not to swallow them all at once. They're pocky, eat them one at a time."

Wally's face was red and the girls had stopped to stare at him as he practically died eating the stick candy.

"A…little…help?" he wheezed as he finally swallowed his mouthful.

Artemis rolled her eyes and handed him the water she had bought at the candy booth.

He gulped it down gratefully.

Zatanna raised her eyebrows at the interaction between the two. While not being as casual as yesterday they still managed to act close yet distant like a pair of mortal enemies who were irrevocably in love and too proud to admit it.

"Feel the aster."

Zatanna jumped, spinning to see Dick standing behind her shoulder, grinning like an idiot.

"What are you talking about? And where did you come from?" she said in confusion.

Dick ignored the second question and instead tackled the first, "If like is the opposite of dislike then aster is most definitely the opposite of disaster," he said, pointing to Artemis and Wally as if it should be obvious, "Witness the aster."

Zatanna rolled her eyes, grabbed his arm and led them all to the Awards Ceremony with an amused grin hidden behind the hair that fell in her face.

Zatanna shouldn't have been worried about not finding seats because by the time they had arrived Megan, Superboy, Aqualad and Roy had saved enough for all of them right in the front row.

"Artemis!" Megan called, patting the seat next to her, "Come on, come on! The ceremony is about to start!"

Artemis sat beside the girl hesitantly watching as Zatanna started to sit beside her but was beaten to it by Wally who launched himself over the back of the chair and landed in it with an ungraceful 'thump'.

"Watch it, Wall-Man," Artemis protested as she elbowed him in the side.

"Hey, that-" he began but was cut off by Megan who leaned over Artemis with her finger to her lips.

"Shhhhhhh," Megan said, "Its about to start!"

Artemis glanced hesitantly at the ecstatic girl. Until now she hadn't noticed exactly what Megan was wearing, and she had no idea how she had missed it.

"Megan?" Artemis said, "What's wrong with your skin?"

"Do you like it?" Megan asked cheerfully, "In the comic books Miss Martian's skin is green but we couldn't figure out how to make my skin green without the make-up rubbing off. Fortunately, Dick and I decided to just go for it on the last day. Doesn't it look great!"

Artemis nodded hesitantly, "Yeah. Great."

As Megan practically bounced in her seat from excitement over the coming Awards Ceremony, Artemis glanced over the girl's shoulder to see Superboy sitting on the other side of her with his arms crossed. Whether he was mad or confused Artemis couldn't tell and she really didn't have time to wonder because just as she noticed him the lights in the room flicked off and a trillion voices cheered as the spotlight focused on the center of the stage.

"Joining us as the host for the annual Comic Convention Awards Ceremony is-" a voice rang out from the speakers, "Our own favorite robot: Red Tornado!"

Before Artemis could blink there was a man standing on the stage wearing a bulky costume that covered every inch of his body, making him appear boxy and awkward.

"Isn't that Iron Man?" Artemis whispered to Wally who turned to her in pure bemusement.

"Are you kidding me? No, that's not even the same universe! That is Red Tornado. The badass product of T.O. Morrow."

Artemis stared at him, or where she assumed he was given that the lights in the room were very, very dim.

"I have no idea what you just said," she admitted.

"It is my honor to be here tonight," Red Tornado announced, interrupting Wally's frantic explanations, "Now, without further ado, I will begin to present the first category of awards: the Cosplaying Awards."

Artemis' jaw almost unhinged as she squeaked, "Shoot me now."

"The award for Best Male Costume goes to: Speedy," Red Tornado announced in the midst of the squeals of a trillion fan girls.

"I love you!"

"Those arms."

"Have my babies!"

Artemis rolled her eyes at the last request.

Too late for that, she thought wryly.

Meanwhile Wally pouted beside her, "That's no fair. He doesn't deserve to win. Its just because of his- of his-"

"Sexy arms? Manly figure? Sexual allure?" Artemis offered only further deepening Wally's scowl.

"I'm going to pretend that you didn't just say that," Wally said, crossing his arms as Roy took the stage and accepted the small trophy from Red Tornado.

From her seat in the first row Artemis could just barely make out Roy whispering bitterly to the robot: "Its Red Arrow."

When Roy sat back down Red Tornado picked up another note card and read: "The Award for Best Female Costume goes to: Artemis."

Artemis froze in her seat. Her eyes trained on Red Tornado as the robot looked down at her from the stage. She wouldn't have been able to move at all unless Wally hadn't slapped her in the arm and shouted congratulations in her ear.

In a daze she stood and mounted the stage, taking the award from Red Tornado she managed a brief smile at the audience, which seemed to excite far too many male audience members, before she sat back down.

Immediately Wally snatched the trophy from her hands.

"Man. This is so cool! We never win anything," Wally said, looking the trophy over. After a moment he looked back up at her and smiled, "I'm really glad you came."

Artemis' heart did a flip in her chest but she hardly noticed. She couldn't hear anything but the sound of Wally's voice in her head and she couldn't see anything but his lips as they came closer and closer-

"I knew it!" Dick said, jumping between the two. Artemis and Wally sprung apart as if Dick had electrocuted them and Artemis found her eyes wandering back to the trophy which Wally had suddenly placed in her hands, "I knew you'd be perfect as Artemis!"

Dick snatched the trophy from Artemis' and waved it over at Zatanna, "Hey Z! Look what you didn't win!"

Artemis rolled her eyes as Zatanna and Dick bickered but what really grabbed her attention was Megan who suddenly grabbed her hand and squeezed it mercilessly.

"Hey-"

"Shhhhhhh!" Megan said, pointing up at the stage, "Listen."

"Finally, the award for cutest couple goes to-"

Artemis heart might have stopped just then and she wouldn't have cared. She only stared up at Red Tornado pleading that he didn't say what she knew he was going to say.

"-goes to: Miss Martian and Superboy."

Megan practically flew out of her seat. She jumped up and threw her arms around Superboy's neck, drizzling kisses on his skin as he carried her up to accept the trophy.

Artemis closed her eyes and tried to settle her heart down from where it was frantically beating in her chest. Why was she a little disappointed?

Suddenly Wally threw his arm around the back of her chair and sighed, "Seriously. Am I going to win anything tonight?"

Artemis could only chuckle at that and elbow him playfully before she stiffened.

She had stopped kissing Kid Idiot because he had been giving mixed signals but wasn't she doing the same thing? Stopping the kiss and now acting nice. Flirting and then fighting. Asking to start over but really just pretending that last night had never happened.

She sighed, running her hand over the part of her mask that hid the bruise. Maybe she was just too proud to admit the things that Wally was doing to her heart.

"Artemis?" Wally asked, leaning towards her, "Artemis, are you-"

"Finally," Red Tornado's voice rang out over the entire room, silencing everyone. Even Megan and Superboy who were still hanging all over each other stared up at the robot in confusion, "The award for the OTP couple of 2012 goes to: Artemis and Kid Flash."

Artemis stood amidst the roaring cheers of fans but she wouldn't have made it to the stage unless Wally hadn't taken her hand and dragged her through the fray. Once on stage Artemis and Wally glanced down at their entwined fingers and separated instinctively as Red Tornado handed them the twin trophies in his boxy, metals hands.

"Congratulations," the robot said.

"Uh-huh," Artemis murmured. In all of the confusion she wasn't even quite sure what it was that she had won.

It was only when she sat down again and the din had faded that Dick clambered over to the two and handed her back her Best Costume award.

"Dick," Artemis bit out, "What the hell is an OTP?"

"Well…" the boy said rubbing the back of his neck. It was clear that both he and Wally knew because not only was Wally's face redder than his hair but Dick was staring down at them with troll-like glee.

"Oh my goodness Artemis you're joking, you don't know what an OTP is?" Megan asked, clinging to the girl's arm ecstatically, "Its only the best award ever. It means One True Pairing or essentially the fans favorite couple of all-time. In this case though it's the favorite couple of the year."

Artemis felt her palms turning sweaty as she glanced over at Wally, whose face looked almost pained at the thought of being paired with her.

She cringed away from him, almost hurt by the fact that he wouldn't even look at her.

They think we're a couple.

Well, this complicated things.
