Chapter 10: Baby Sister

"What time are you coming?" Wally asked against his phone.

"Okay, I'll be there in half an hour." Artemis replied on the other side of the phone.

Wally smiled, he was finally going to see Artemis again. The last time they saw each other was five days ago on their last mission. "Uh, also, do you mind if I bring a friend?" he asked her.

"Sure," Artemis answered, "wait, Luke wants to come too."

"Okay, him along if you want." For a moment, there was a silence, Wally smiled once again. "See you in half an hour." He almost whispered.

On the other line, Artemis grinned a bit as well, "See you." She hung up and Wally just stood there, his phone still in his hand.

When he finally put his phone back in his pocket, he looked at the girl on his couch. It was Cassandra. Her parents were gone for the weekend and they didn't want to leave her alone in the house so they asked Wally's parents if she could stay with them until they came back. He and Cassandra have known each other since freshman year, when she had first moved to Central City.

Now that Wally looked at her, sitting on the couch, reading a novel, he realized how much she had changed in the past few months. She had some sort of growth spurt and didn't have her usual petite body anymore; in fact she was almost as tall as Wally. Her golden-brown hair had become more golden than brown, she was slowly becoming blonde. Even her eyes seemed to change color. Her grey eyes had become a grey-blue color. And strangely, she reminded him of someone, although he wasn't quite sure of whom.

She realized that Wally was staring at her and looked up at him from her book. "What on earth are you staring at?" she asked.

"Nothing," he replied, "I'm meeting someone at the diner. You want to come with?"

She closed her book and put it on the table beside her, "Sure. I'll just get my phone upstairs." She got up and ran up the stairs.

Wally got his dad's car keys and started the car. A few minutes later, Cassandra came in and sat shotgun.

They arrived at the city's diner and sat at a booth in the far corner of the room. After a few more minutes, he saw Artemis come in, followed by Luke. He waved at them. Artemis saw them, and so did Luke. And almost immediately, Luke turned a sharp left, towards the restroom. Artemis looked back to check where he was going but by then he was already in the other room. She shrugged and sat down beside Wally. She kissed him on the lips softly, so soft and warm that it made Wally forget about Cassandra, who was right in front of them.

They separated and both flushed as Cassandra stared at them and then raised an eyebrow.

Wally coughed forcefully, "Sorry, Arty, this is my classmate, Cassandra Ausseil." He faced Cassandra, who was drinking her lemonade, "Sandie, this is Artemis Crock, my girlfriend."

Hearing him say girlfriend, Cassandra almost spit her drink out. Once she composed herself again, she almost yelled at the redhead, "What? Did you just say girlfriend?"

Wally smiled at Artemis, then at Cassandra and nodded. "Yeah, she is." He said, "Well, we were together, then we broke up and we're together ―" He started babbling but Artemis stuffed some garlic bread into his mouth to stop him.

Both girls chuckled and started hitting it off. Apparently they had a lot in common. They both liked the color green. They both spoke French fluently. They both know Tae Kwon Do and Karate.

"Wait." Wally said, "You know Tae Kwon Do and Karate?" he asked Cassandra.

She nodded with a smile, "Yeah."

Wally was stunned, "Since when?" he never knew she did any sport. She was always the girlie type.

Cassandra smiled, it was her little secret but the smile disappeared almost at the same time as it appeared, "I started when I was about seven." She paused, "I stopped right before high school."

"How come you never told us?" Wally asked.

Cassandra took a piece of her Caesar salad, "You never asked." She shrugged but didn't make any eye contact with either of them.

The speedster looked at her for a moment, slightly suspicious but ignored it eventually. Then he realized Luke was still in the restroom. "Hey, where on earth is Luke?" he asked Artemis.

"He went to the restroom." The archer replied.

"But he's been there for almost fifteen minutes." The redhead pointed out. Something was going on.

Artemis glanced towards the restroom, then back at her boyfriend, "You should go check on him."

"What? Why me? You're the best friend!" Wally cried out.

Artemis raised a eyebrow, "Really?" she said, "You're actually asking me that?"

"Oh," Wally mumbled, "right." He gestured her to move. She stood up and let him get out of the booth and then he headed towards the bathroom.

He entered and found Luke, leaning against the sink. He looked like he had a hangover. He was sweating and looked like he was about to puke. The blond boy looked at Wally and like if he didn't even care if the redhead was there, looked at himself in the mirror in front of him. Wally walked over to him and put a hand on his shoulder. He looked beyond sick. His skin was crazy pale and looked like he hasn't slept in days.

Wally was concerned, just minutes ago, Luke seemed fine when he first entered the diner, "What happened, man?" he asked them.

Luke didn't answer. He didn't even seem to notice he was right beside him.

After a while, he exhaled deeply and forced on a smile, "Nothing's wrong." He said, but his voice seemed to crack a little, "I'm fine."

Wally didn't believe him at first but decided not to ask. Together they walked out the restroom and towards the booth. As they walked, Luke kept making his hair cover his eyes but his blond hair naturally went upwards. He cursed and put on his hood over his head, trying to hide his face. What on earth is wrong with him?

As they neared their table, Luke quickly sat beside Artemis, stealing Wally's place. The speedster raised an eyebrow. There was definitely something wrong with him. But he just thought that he was shy to meet someone new so Wally sat down Sandie.

Cassandra and Artemis were giggling together and Wally was happy they were getting along so well. "So," he asked, "what are you guys talking about?"

"I can't believe you gave her the nickname 'Sandie'." Artemis answered him from across the table.

All of a sudden, Wally felt so alone. Not being beside her made his heart ache. He felt as though he was across the universe instead of being across the table. He just needed to make sure she wasn't an illusion. That this wasn't one of those nightmares that kept him awake most nights.

But he realized everyone was waiting for his answer, even Luke who was staring from the side of his hood. "Well," he finally said, "Cassie just seemed too common for Cassandra. And now I'm happy I didn't call her that cause of little Cassie." He paused, "So then, I was thinking about Sandra. But, I don't know. She just doesn't feel like a Sandra. So I just called her Sandie."

The archer chuckled, "Like the squirrel from Spongebob?" she asked with a raised eyebrow.

"Like the squirrel." He agreed with a forced smile.

Artemis didn't seem to notice, or at least ignore it and faced Cassandra, "And you don't call him anything stupid?"

Cassandra smiled, "Freckle-face." She replied and Artemis burst out laughing like a complete maniac that even Wally cracked a smile.

The only one not smiling was Luke. And Artemis realized that. "Oh God, I'm being rude," she said, "Cassandra, this is Luke." She gestured towards Luke who immediately turned away. His best friend slapped him on the shoulder, "Luke!" she cried out. "Stop acting like a baby!" she turned back to Cassandra, "Sorry, I have no idea why he's being such a jerk!" But Luke still wouldn't look at Cassandra in the eye.

Artemis was getting annoyed, "Luke!" she almost yelled.

That got him. He lifted his eyes a little bit, shinning behind the hood. And that was all Cassandra needed. Just a single glance at those bright baby blue eyes.

She froze. Her heart pretty much stopped beating for a whole minute.

Wally waved his hand before her face. She blinked. But that was all.

And after a while, Cassandra spoke, "Luke?" she asked softly, "Is that you?"

The blond boy under the hood didn't do anything at first. But eventually, he took of the hood and revealed himself. Cassandra put her hands over her mouth. She started to whimper and tears feel out of her eyes. Wally shoved his legs to the side as Cassandra got out of the booth at the same time as Luke. Even Luke shed a few tears. They hugged both of them crying. And now that Wally looked at them, side by side, he couldn't believe it himself.

Artemis on the other hand, just stared at them. "What the heck is going on?" she asked, confused as ever.

Although, neither of them seemed to notice her, "Please don't tell me I'm dreaming." Cassandra whispered.

"It's really me." Luke answered.

Artemis was sort of getting pissed off. "Hello?" she said, "What the heck is going on? Do you guys know each other?"

They finally stopped hugging and faced the archer. And Luke finally answered her question, "Cassandra is my baby sister."

So? What do you think? PLEASE REVIEW!

MAJOR HUGE FREAKING SPOILER! Who here has watched 'Auld Aquantance'? Cause I just pretty much died in this episode. I mean just everything was pretty much perfect. I loved the Spitfire kiss. I was smiling for hours, I couldn't sleep at all. I loved the corny quote that Wally said and I totally agree with it! He SHOULD have done that a REALLY long time ago. One thing though, I thought that the other kisses kinda ruined the Spitfire kiss. Don't get me wrong. I love Chalant (Z/R) and Kaldur/Rocket and I really think that Supermartian is super cute but I really wanted the Spitfire kiss to be theirs. Anyway, still LOVE the kiss though! Can't wait until this weekend! :DDDDDDD
