Thank you reviewers! I love the reviews!
And thank you jadapie1127 for wishing me well.
Argent can't believe this..
She's officially been a mother for a full year.
And she really wants out.
She sighed. "Do you think Titans East will make it for the twins birthday? I know they had that big mission and they may still be occupied."
Hot Spot walked over and patted her shoulder.
"Don't worry... buddy."
Argent's surprised that after a month, he's still upset that she doesn't want to be in a serious relationship.
It's not that she doesn't love him. She does... just not in a romantic way.
She's 18! She wants to do what she wants with no restrictions.
That's where the problem with the kids come in.
As much as she loves them, they're holding her back.
Hot Spot pulled her out the room.
"We have a party to take our children to."
Hours Later (6pm)
"They are so cute!" The usually enthusiastic Kole squealed, annoying Argent.
Argent put Blake down, which lead to him wobbling around.
"Just because I'm a mum, doesn't mean I won't still torture you."
Kole groaned and backed up. "I thought that was just a last year thing.. You know, at the slumber party and in Mistress's mansion."
Argent scowled. "That nut's manor was the reason I got pregnant."
Kole slowly inched away, feeling that Argent may want to take out her anger on someone.
"Hey Argent!" Speedy called, walking over.
Argent folded her arms over her large bust.
"Yeah?"
"Where's your kids?"
Argent pointed out Vicky sitting on the couch in Raven's lap with her arms crossed and Blake playing with Red Star and Pantha.
"They've really grown since the last time we saw them."
Argent smiled. "Blake shouts out Moroccan phrases here and there. Vicky only talks when she want to say no."
They both chuckled.
"You look tired... Still hot, but tired." Speedy pointed out.
Argent laughed. "Chasing them could do that. But I failed to realize that bags under my eyes were considered hot." She joked.
He nodded. "Yup. Totally MILF." Then he had an expression that meant he did not mean to say that aloud.
Argent put a hand on his shoulder and chuckled.
Meanwhile Hot Spot was stabbing at cake in the kitchen, trying to keep himself together.
So Argent refuses to make them official, but she can openly flirt with Speedy?
"You aren't listening, man." Kid Flash said.
Hot Spot stabbed into the paper plate.
"Yeah yeah.." He was still looking at Argent and Speedy.
Kid followed his gaze after picking up a slice of pizza.
"Oh... Speedy's all over your woman."
"She's not my girlfriend." He said gruffly.
Kid frowned. "Do you want to discuss it?"
"I want to stab something." He dragged every word.
Kid backed up and let Hot Spot walk off.
"Where's my Slow-Poke?" Kid muttered, looking around for Jinx.
An Hour Later
"Giff!" Blake giggled as he was handed a present.
Hot Spot helped him open it.
"Oh look, a handmade car. It's from your uncle Cyborg." He announced flatly.
Blake cooed and played with as soon as it was handed to him.
Hot Spot turned to Cy. "I guess that means 'thank you dude, I love it'."
Everyone chuckled.
Argent rolled her eyes before helping Vicky with her gift.
Both mother and daughter were appalled when they saw the pink dress.
"Yay!" Argent cheered falsely. "A pink... very pink dress from Aunty Star."
Vicky grabbed it and threw it.
It landed on Aqualad.
"Here." He handed the dress back.
Argent took it and leaned to Vicky's ear.
"Don't do that... we'll just 'accidentally' lose it later."
Vicky smirked and nodded.
She took the dress and looked at it.
"P'ty." She deadpanned, tossing it next to her.
Everyone aww-ed.
Vicky rolled her eyes and sighed.
Hot Spot opened Blake's gift and frowned.
"A comb... from Speedy."
Blake giggled.
Hot Spot handed him the comb.
Blake played with it immediately.
The others chuckled.
"I guess the little guy loves it." Speedy laughed.
"I guess." Hot Spot almost spat.
Kid Flash chewed at his lip, expecting something.
Hot Spot leaned back in the couch, sulking.
Vicky glared at Speedy.
She doesn't like him.
They went through more presents.
A purple dress from Bee to Vicky; 2 dollars to each of them from Beast Boy; a plush teddy bear from Pantha to Victoriana; A set of dark blue bibs from Raven to Blake, due to the fact that she occasionally feeds him.
Argent helped Vicky open her next present.
"Oh!" Everyone marveled at the doll.
It was a handcrafted Japanese doll with huge black eyes, no whites. It had on a red kimono that matched her red lips.
Victoriana gaped at it.
She traced it's face before lightly setting it in the pile.
She looked directly at Bushido and slightly smiled.
Everyone found that adorable except Argent, who gasped.
"That's the first time I've ever seen her smile." She whispered to Hot Spot.
He was still pissed, but didn't show it.
"Come on... She's smiled before."
Argent raised an eyebrow.
"She doesn't cry either."
"Stop acting like something's wrong with her."
Argent put Vicky down from her lap.
"I didn't say something was... She's just a little strange."
Vicky crawled over to where Aqualad was sitting with Bee and pulled his hair.
"Ow! Bee stop laughing and help!"
Everyone who noticed was laughing.
Argent frowned. "Roxanne! Stop it and come 'ere!"
Hot Spot hates her use of Victoriana's middle name.
"I told you to stop calling her that."
Argent purposely ignored him and went to grab Vicky away from Aqualad.
"I'm so sorry my daughter's being so bad, Fishy."
Aqualad felt his head.
"It's fine. She sure has a grip."
Bee laughed. "And you sure have long hair!"
Vicky tried to squirm out of Argent's arms.
Argent put her down.
"My goodness. Being a mom sucks."
"Argent!" Jinx snapped from her place by Bee.
Argent folded her arms.
"What? It's hell. They're always running about, getting into some type of crazy shit."
"They're 1." Bee pointed out.
"Vicky looks like she'll be in trouble everyday of her life." Argent complained.
Before any of the two girls could say anything, Speedy shouted.
Hot Spot was laughing at the site of his daughter stomping on Speedy's stomach and crotch area.
One of the 14 year old twins, Mas, picked her up.
"Baby gone wild!" Beast Boy shouted.
"You think?" Mas asked sarcastically as he put her back down.
She went back over to Speedy and violently punched and kicked at him.
"My God! This child can kick!" He shouted.
Argent ran over and picked Vicky up.
"Bad girl! No more sweets!"
She walked over to the couch and dropped her on Hot Spot.
"You're sitting here laughing as your child causes havoc?"
Hot Spot didn't stop chuckling. "Yup."
He looked at Blake and Vicky.
"That was funny, right?"
Blake giggled and Vicky smirked.
Argent narrowed her eyes.
"If you don't mind, I'm going to apologize to Speedy. Then I'll be back so we can finish opening their presents."
Hot Spot scowled.
"No. You stay there with Speedy, and I'll open their presents."
Argent shrugged. "Fine!"
She stomped away.
"Your mommy drives me insane." He angrily whispered to his kids.
Intense problems between Argent and Hot Spot.
