A/N: Hi everyone! This new chapter was an idea that my friend ClockworkFirefly gave me to do my take on the character Grant Wilson, who is the main character in his story Young Justice Outsiders Redux - The Story of Grant Wilson. Check that story out on AO3 because it's good! Credit also goes to ClockworkFirefly as we talked about some of the lines that are said in this chapter. Inspiration for this chapter also came from ClockworkFirefly and the episode of That's So Raven titled Hizzouse Party. Enjoy!
I own nothing Young Justice, That's So Raven, or High School Musical 2 related.
Friday
It was a Friday evening in Hollywood, and currently Garfield, Tara, Violet, Forager, Victor, Virgil, Cassie, Bart, Ed, Jaime, Traci, Tim, Stephanie, Cassandra, and Cissie were gathered in the living room of the Hub. The original team had called a meeting and required for them all to attend. Right now they were all just waiting for the original team to show up.
"Do you think they'll show up soon?" Cassie asked the group.
"I hope so." Traci said.
"How are they going to call this meeting and be late their damn selves?" Ed asked, annoyed.
"Ed!" Bart said, elbowing his boyfriend in the arm.
"What?!" Ed asked, rubbing his arm, "It's true!" He added.
Not too long after that, the zeta tube chimed up and announced the arrival of the original team. The original team all walked through the zeta tube and towards the living room where the younger ones were.
"Hey y'all." Raquel said, waving.
"About time you all got here." Ed mumbled, resulting in Bart elbowing him again.
"Dude!" Virgil whispered.
"Well someone is testy." Zatanna chuckled.
"Can you blame him?" Stephanie pipe up, "You all ask us to come here for a meeting and have us waiting like fifteen minutes for you all to arrive." She added.
"Point taken." Dick said, "Sorry that we kept you all waiting, but we had to take care of something." He added.
"What?" Tim asked.
"You'll find out." Conner said, "But first let's get this meeting started." He added.
The younger kids all sat up, giving the original team their full attention.
"As you all know we will all be out of town this weekend to attend a concert in Miami." Dick said.
"Meaning that I won't be here to watch you all here this weekend as your den mother." Artemis said.
"So I pulled some strings and got someone to watch you guys while Artemis is gone." Dick said.
"Dude, a babysitter?" Garfield said, "Don't you think we'll be able to take care of ourselves here? I mean we have matured over the months." He added.
"Hahaha you're cute." Artemis laughed, "Isn't he cute guys?" She asked her friends.
"Hey!" Garfield said, indignantly.
"Even if you have matured, you still need a den mother to watch over things." Dick said.
Garfield only huffed in response.
"So…..who will be watching over us?" Tara asked.
"Is it a member of the League?" Violet asked.
"No." Dick said, smirking.
Suddenly the zeta tube chimed up and announced the arrival of someone named Grant Wilson.
"Who?" Tim said as all of the younger kids turned their attention towards the zeta tube. They then saw a man who was almost Dick's height with black hair and a lean body walk through. He was had air pods in his ears and he was belting out "Gotta Go My Own Way" from High School Musical 2.
"What about us?! What about everything we've been through?!" Grant belted out.
"Grant." Dick said.
"What about trust?! You know I never wanted to hurt you!" Grant belted out.
"Grant!" Dick said, louder.
"What about me?! What am I supposed to do?!" Grant belted out.
"GRANT!" Dick exclaimed, frustration finally getting to him.
"WHAT?!" Grant exclaimed, looking towards Dick, only to see everyone else looking at him as well.
"OH! My bad!" Grant said, taking out his phone to pause his music. He then took out his air pods, put them back in their case, put the case in his back pocket and walked over to where Dick was standing. Once he reached him Dick put his arm around Grant's shoulders.
"Guys, this is my good pal Grant Wilson." Dick said.
"What's up you little rascals?" Grant greeted.
"Uh Dick…..who is this guy?" Tim said.
"Touchy." Grant said.
"Tim I told you this is my pal Grant Wilson." Dick said, "He's going to be watching over you all this weekend." He added.
"Why does it have to be him?" Tim asked. He didn't take much of a liking to Grant based off of his entrance.
"Tim be nice." Dick sighed.
"Does he always have a stick up his ass?" Grant asked the younger kids.
"Yep." Cassie said, nodding her head.
"Cassie!" Tim said indignantly, turning his head to look at her.
"Well you do." Cassie said, shrugging her shoulders.
That got a laugh out of Stephanie and Cissie.
"It's not funny!" Tim said, turning to look at them.
"Yeah it was." Cassandra said, smirking.
"No it wasn't!" Tim said.
Then the others joined in on the laughter against Tim.
"Guys!" Tim exclaimed.
"Enough!" Kaldur shouted.
Everyone stopped laughing immediately and looked at Kaldur with shocked looks. Kaldur then looked towards Dick and motioned him to continue.
"Like I said before Grant will be the den mother of the Hub for the weekend." Dick said.
"And while I'm gone there is to be no funny business." Artemis said, "Got it?" She asked.
"Yes." All of the younger kids said in unison.
"Good." Artemis said.
"Well with all of this taken care of we'll be on our way." Dick said, then turned to Grant, "Grant you know what to do." He added, patting Grant on his shoulder.
"Got it Dick!" Grant said, "You can count on me!" He added.
Dick nodded and he and the rest of his friends proceeded to leave the Hub off to their group trip. The zeta tube chimed up, announcing their exits. Once they were gone, Grant let out a cheer.
"Yes, they're gone!" Grant said, pumping his fist.
"What are you talking about?" Tim asked, but Grant ignored him.
"Which one of y'all is the owner of this killer crib?" Grant asked the group.
"Uhhhh…I am." Garfield said, raising his hand.
"Awesome!" Grant said, "How would you like to plan a party here tomorrow night?" He asked.
"A party?!" Tim exclaimed.
"Huh? You know I've been meaning to have a sick party here eventually." Garfield said, rubbing his chin with his finger.
"And what a perfect time to plan it now with Artemis and the others being away." Grant said.
"Yeah." Garfield said, "But I don't think that Artemis would approve." He added.
"Dude isn't this your house?" Grant asked.
"Yeah." Garfield said.
"Then why do you need someone else's approval on what you want to do in your house?" Grant asked.
Garfield stayed silent for a moment, "You're right. Let's do this." He said.
"Yes! What time is it? Party time!" Grant said, singing a lyric from High School Musical 2's "What Time Is It?".
"What?!" Tim exclaimed.
"Hey, I want to help plan this party, too!" Virgil said, with Cassie, Ed, Bart, and Jaime nodding in agreement.
"You're welcome to help plan these epicenes!" Grant said.
"I want in, too." Victor said.
"Guys! We can't do this!" Tim said.
"Shut up Tim." Stephanie said, "I want in, too." She added.
"Me too!" Cissie said.
"I like parties." Cassandra said.
"Guys no!" Tim said.
"What about you guys?" Garfield asked Forager, Traci, Tara, and Violet.
"We don't know." Traci said.
"Artemis said no funny business." Violet said.
"And Forager believes that this counts as funny business." Forager said.
"Thank goodness." Tim said, thankful that at least some of his friends have common sense.
"I'm in." Tara said.
"Tara!" Violet said.
"Come on Violet it'll be fun!" Tara said.
"Yeah Trac don't turn into little miss goody two shoes now." Cassie said.
"I just don't think this is a good idea." Traci said sheepishly.
"They'll be lots of snacks." Grant said, feeling like that will get Traci to come over to the dark side.
"Snack?" Traci said.
"Yep! Lots of them!" Grant said, nodding.
"Like…..sweets?" Traci asked.
"Lots and lots of sweets." Grant said, "Chips, too." He added.
"Okay I'm in!" Traci said.
"Yay!" Cassie exclaimed.
"I think twizzlers will be included in the snacks Violet." Tara said.
"Twizzlers?" Violet said, "I…..I love twizzlers." She added.
"Yep." Tara said, "Right Grant?" She asked their temporary den mother.
"Of course!" Grant exclaimed, "Sandwiches, too!" He added.
"Sandwiches?" Forager said. Both he and Violet looked at each other and then back at the group.
"We're in!" They both say.
"Awesometacular!" Grant exclaimed.
Tim just watched in shock as his friends and Grant went on and on about this party. He just couldn't believe it. He needed to put his foot down immediately.
"GUYS!" Tim shouted.
Everyone stopped talking and looked towards Tim.
"We are NOT throwing a party here!" Tim said.
"Aw Tim you're no fun!" Stephanie exclaimed.
"Well excuse me for thinking that I don't want us to get in trouble with the original team!" Tim exclaimed.
"Come one dude live a little!" Grant said, "We'll have everything cleaned up by the time they get back. They'll never know." He added.
"No Grant!" Tim said, "See I knew you being our den mother was going to be a bad idea! You're entrance was the first sign!" He added.
Grant just sighed in annoyance.
"Tim-!" Cassie started, but was interrupted.
"No Cass!" Tim said, "I will not allow this to happen! I will not let this Grant character get all of us in trouble! There will be no party tomorrow night and that's that!" He added, folding his arms.
Saturday
Music blared loudly throughout the Hub as people danced their hearts out to the beat. Tim was weaving his way through the crowd, trying to get to the DJ's booth.
"I can't believe he actually threw this party." Tim grumbled to himself, "How does he know all of these people anyway?" He added.
He kept weaving his way through until he finally saw the DJ's booth. And who was at the DJ"s booth playing the music? None other than Harper Row, jamming to the music. Tim made his way over to her.
"Harper! Harper!" Tim called out to her over the music.
"Yeah?" Harper called out to him over the music.
"What do you think you're doing?!" Tim asked.
"What does it look like?!" Harper said, "I'm DJing this awesome party!" She added.
"Why?!" Tim asked.
"Because Violet and Tara hit me up and told me about it and asked me to DJ!" Harper said, and then grabbed the microphone, "EVERYBODY JUMP!" She exclaimed.
The crowd then proceeded to jump in unison, knocking Tim off of his feet.
"Yeah!" Harper exclaimed.
Tim got back on his feet and gave Harper a look. He then looked towards the crowd and saw Violet and Tara dancing, and made his way over to them.
"This is so exciting!" Tara said.
"I know right?!" Violet said, "There is this voice in the back of my head saying that this isn't a good idea right now though." She added.
"Me too." Tara said, "But I don't care!" She added.
"Me either!" Violet said.
"Violet! Tara!" Tim called out.
Violet and Tara turned their attention towards Tim, who stopped in front of them.
"What are you two doing?!" Tim asked.
"Dancing!" The two girls exclaimed, "Isn't this party so much fun?!" They added.
"No it's not fun!" Tim said, "It's irresponsible!" He added.
Violet and Tara stopped dancing and looked at Tim with surprised looks on their faces.
"Artemis told us no funny business and look at what's happening!" Tim said, motioning to the party around them.
Violet and Tara gave Tim ashamed looks.
"What do you think Artemis would think of you two right now?!" Tim asked.
"Uhhhhh." Tara said.
"She'd be so disappointed in you two!" Tim said.
"But….." Violet said.
"I can't believe you guys are actually going along with this!" Tim said.
"DAMMIT LET US LIVE!" Violet and Tara shouted.
Tim flinched at their responses as he was not expecting them to scream at him. He then watched as they disappeared into the crowd.
"Ha, they told you!" A voice said.
Tim turned around to see Garfield and Perdita laughing at him, they too dancing to the music.
"It's not funny!" Tim said.
"Yeah it is!" Perdita chuckled.
"You two should be helping me trying to stop this party and getting everyone out!" Tim said, "Gar this is your house! Do something about this!" He added.
"I am doing something about this! I'm enjoying the party!" Garfield said.
"You should, too!" Perdita said, "Stop being a buzzkill!" She added.
Tim let out a groan of frustration and face palmed.
"You know what?" Tim said, "Where's Grant?" He asked.
Not a moment after he asked, Grant appeared from the balcony and ran halfway down the stairs. He was wearing swim trunks and a duck floaty around his waist.
"HEY EVERYONE!" Grant exclaimed.
The music came to a screeching stop as everyone stopped dancing and looked up to where Grant was standing.
"INTO THE POOL!" Grant exclaimed and ran back upstairs and out to the balcony.
The crowd cheered and stampeded their way up to the balcony.
"Wait a second!" Tim said, "THE HUB DOESN'T HAVE A POOL!" He added.
Tim then rushed after the crowd.
Inside of the kitchen, an intense game of Jenga was happening between Forager and Cassandra.
"Come on you got this man." Victor said, standing behind Forager.
"Kick his ass Cass." Cissie said as she and Stephanie stood behind Cassandra.
"You should know Forager that I am the Jenga master." Casandra said as she removed a piece from the tower.
"We shall see who the true master is once Forager crushes you." Forager said, removing a piece from the tower.
"Bring it on." Cassandra said, removing another piece from the tower.
Tim then rushed into the kitchen, "Guys! I need your help!" He said.
"Not now Tim." Victor said, waving him off.
"But I need help stopping this party!" Tim exclaimed.
"Oh, go be a buzzkill somewhere else!" Cissie said, "We have more important things to worry about!" She added.
"But guys-!" Tim said, but was interrupted.
"Tim go away." Stephanie said.
"But-!" Tim started, but was interrupted again.
"GO!" Victor, Stephanie, and Cissie all shouted.
"Fine!" Tim grumbled and stomped out of the kitchen.
"He can be such a child sometimes." Stephanie said as she, Cissie, and Victor returned their focus back to the game at hand.
Cassandra then moved to remove a piece from the bottom of the tower, only to have the tower come tumbling down.
"FUCK!" Cassandra exclaimed while Cissie and Stephanie gasped with shock.
"Yes!" Victor exclaimed.
"Forager thinks that maybe Cassandra Cain is not the master of Jenga after all." Forager said bluntly.
"Did you see that Steph?" Cissie asked.
"Yeah I saw." Stephanie said, "I can't believe it either. No one has ever beat Cass at Jenga before." She added.
"Maybe she's losing her touch." Cissie said.
"NOT HELPING GIRLS!" Cassandra said, turning to glare at her two friends.
Inside the game room upstairs, Bart and Ed were playing against each other in Dance Dance Revolution. Virgil and Cassie cheered Bart on while Tye and Asami cheered Ed along. Meanwhile Brenda and Paco were playing against each other in a game of fuse ball.
Tim then entered the room.
"Guys you have to help me!" Tim said, "I need help-!" He started but was interrupted.
"We are not helping you stop this party Tim." Bart said as he focused on his dance moves.
"Yeah go be a buzzkill somewhere else." Ed said, equally focused on his dance moves.
Everyone else agreed with him.
Tim looked towards his girlfriend, "You too Cassie?!" He asked incredulously.
"Yep." Cassie said, her eyes still on the dance battle at hand.
Tim let out a frustrated groan. He then looked around.
"Where are Jaime and Traci?" Tim asked, "I know they will help me out with stopping this mess." He added.
"They were here playing games but then they left to go to his spare room here." Brenda said.
"Ok cool." Tim said, and turned around to leave.
"Where do you think you're going?" Brenda asked.
"I'm going to go ask if they'll help me." Tim said, looking back at Brenda.
"Uh no sir!" Brenda said, "You will leave them alone." She added.
"Yeah." Paco chuckled, "Their busy." He added.
Everyone else but Tim smirked at the comment.
"Ok and?" Tim asked, "I'll just politely interrupt them." He added.
"No you will not." Asami said.
"Why?!" Tim said, frustrated.
"Dude didn't you hear what Paco said?" Tye asked, "Jaime and Traci are busy." He added.
"Yeah, with each other." Asami laughed.
"Yeah I heard." Tim said, annoyed, "I still don't understand why I can't go politely interrupt them by knocking on his door.
"Dude." Virgil said, "They are busy." He added.
"Busy, Tim." Cassie said, "Busy." She added.
Tim just looked at them confused, before realization finally hit him.
"OH!" Tim exclaimed.
"Yep!" Cassie said, "They we're in the mood tonight!" She laughed.
"I was wondering when they would finally cave." Brenda said, with Paco laughed at her comment.
"Ew!" Tim exclaimed.
"Oh Tim please!" Cassie said, rolling her eyes, "You act like me and you haven't gotten busy before." She added.
"CASSIE!" Tim shouted as everyone else busted out in laughter.
"I'm just glad Gar has sound proof walls so no one will hear them." Bart said, still focused on his dancing.
"Me, too." Ed said, also focused on his dancing.
Then Virgil looked at his phone as he received a text from Garfield.
"Guys!" Virgil exclaimed.
"What?" Everyone asked.
"Gar just texted me saying that the mechanical bull was up and running!" Virgil exclaimed.
"YES!" Everyone exclaimed and hauled ass out the room, their games all forgotten.
Tim just stood their shocked.
"Mechanical…bull?!" Tim exclaimed.
By the time Tim got back downstairs, the crowd was cheering very loudly. He weaved his way through the crowd to get to the front and when he got there, he saw Perdita on the bull.
"YEEEEEE-HAAAAAAA!" Perdita exclaimed as she rode the bull. The bull tried to get her off with its movements but Perdita had a strong grip.
"Yeah! That's my girl!" Garfield exclaimed.
Tim turned his head and saw Grant standing with his friends with the remote to the mechanical bull in his hands. He marched his way over to him.
"Grant!" Tim shouted angrily.
"Hey Tim!" Grant said, "What's up?" He asked.
"You got a mechanical bull?!" Tim asked.
"Yeah!" Grant said, "Cool, huh?" He asked.
The mechanical bull made a sound indicating that the ride was done and Tim turned back to it to see Perdita slide off of it. She then stumbled over to where he was standing.
"Tim that was so fun!" She said, wobbling, "I wanna do it again!" She added, and then proceeded to fall over.
Tim just watched as she rolled passed him on the ground. Garfield bent down next to her to help her up.
"I'm so proud of you!" Garfield said.
"Alright who's next?" Grant called out.
"Me! Me! Me!" Asami said, jumping up and down.
"Sam are you sure?" Tye asked his girlfriend.
"Yes I want a piece of this thing!" Asami exclaimed and hopped herself on the bull.
"You heard the lady." Grant said, and pressed the button to start the bull.
The mechanical bull started moving and eventually started jerking around, trying to get it's occupant off. But Asami, just like Perdita, had a strong grip. Asami was just laughing crazily, enjoying this experience.
"Go Sam!" Tye, Ed, and Virgil exclaimed, cheering on their fellow runaway.
Tim turned his attention back to Grant.
"Grant stop the bull." Tim said.
"What?" Grant asked.
"You heard me!" Tim said, "Stop the bull!" He added.
He then made a motion for the remote but Grant moved it out of his reach.
"Dude what is your problem?!" Grant asked.
"You are my problem!" Tim exclaimed, "Dick trusted you with being our den mother and you betray his trust like this! I knew you were bad news from the start!" He added.
"Sheesh man tell me how you really feel." Grant said.
"I just did!" Tim huffed.
"Tim will you lay off him?!" Cassie exclaimed.
"Cassie!" Tim said shocked.
"Seriously stop!" Cassie exclaimed.
"Yeah Tim you're being mean." Cissie said.
"And a buzzkill." Stephanie said.
"You guys are actually standing up for him?!" Tim asked.
"Yep." Bart said, "We actually like Grant." He added.
"And if you would just relax and enjoy the moment maybe you would, too." Ed said.
"Yeah instead you got a stick up your ass." Cassandra said.
"Guys I just don't want us to get in trouble!" Tim said.
"Dude we're not going to get in trouble." Grant said, "I told you we'll have all this cleaned up by the time they get back." He added.
"How can you be so sure?" Tim asked.
"Tim will you please relax and enjoy the party?!" Cassie said.
"Yeah it's like you don't know how to have fun." Virgil said.
"I do too know how to have fun!" Tim said.
"Oh yeah?" Grant said, smirking, "Prove it. You're next on the bull." He added.
"What?" Tim asked.
"You're next to get on the bull." Grant repeated.
"I'm not getting on that thing!" Tim said.
"Buzzkill!" Violet said in a sing song voice as she and Tara laughed.
"Why?" Grant asked, "You said you know how to have fun. So get on the bull." He added.
Tim didn't say anything.
"Wait guys he's not a buzzkill." Stephanie said, "He's just scared to get on the bull." She added, smirking.
"What?" Tim said, "I am not!" He added.
"Then why won't you get on the bull?" Stephanie asked.
"I…..I…" Tim stammered.
"Oh my gosh you are scared." Cassie laughed.
"No I'm not!" Tim said.
"Then get on the bull!" Cassandra said.
"Tim." A voice said behind him.
Tim turned around and saw Asami standing there. He was so focused on everyone else that he didn't notice her get off the bull. He jumped back a little.
"Sam!" Tim exclaimed, "I…I didn't hear you walk up to me." He added.
Asami just gave him a blank stare. She then pointed towards the bull.
"Get on." She said bluntly.
"You heard the lady." Grant said, "Get on the bull!" He added.
Tim looked at all of his friends, who only looked back at him expectantly.
"Fine." Tim said, "I'll show you. I'LL SHOW ALL OF YOU!" He added, and made his way to the bull.
"You think he'll be able to stay on?" Cissie asked Stephanie.
"Who knows?" Stephanie answered.
Tim positioned himself on the bull and looked at Grant.
"Hit me!" Tim exclaimed. Grant nodded and pushed the bottom to start the bull.
The bull's movements started out slow, but then it started jerking trying to get Tim off. Tim held on for dear life, fumbling a bit. But eventually he was able to keep his grip on the bull with ease as it moved.
"Hey." Tim said, "Hey I'm doing it. I'm doing it!" He added.
"You got this baby!" Cassie cheered for her boyfriend.
"Hey this is kinda fun!" Tim said, "This is really fun!" He added.
"I told you!" Grant said.
"Woo hooo!" Tim exclaimed, "Woo hooo! Yeah!" He added.
"Tim! Tim! Tim! Tim!" His friends and the crowd chanted.
"I'M LIVING LIFE!" Tim shouted, "I'M LIVING LIFE! YEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAH!" He added.
Sunday
The time was 12pm the next day, and the party was over. Harper, Tye, Asami, Brenda, Paco, and all of the other party guests have long left, and the living room of the Hub was a mess. Plus, the younger kids were all scattered either around the Hub either in the messy living room or in their own personal rooms. It was dead silent, except for the chatter of two people coming from the kitchen, and those two people were Garfield and Perdita. The two of them woke up about an hour ago and Garfield decided to make them both breakfast, which they were currently eating at the kitchen island.
"Garfield these scrambled eggs are amazing!" Perdita said.
"I'm glad you liked them." Garfield said, "They were my moms special scrambled eggs." He added.
"Was there anything your mother couldn't cook?" Perdita asked.
"Nope." Garfield said proudly.
"You know what Gar?" Perdita asked, "I really had a great time tonight." She added.
"I'm glad you did." Garfield said with a bright smile.
"It was nice to finally experience an actual house party." Perdita said, "I never got the chance to with my royal duties and all." She added.
"Speaking of which, why didn't you leave with everyone else?" Garfield asked, "Don't you have to get back to Vlatava?" He added.
"Aww Vlatava can stand a few more hours without me." Perdita said, waving her hand.
"Ooooh rebellious." Garfield said, smirking, "I like that." He added.
Perdita laughed and blushed a little bit.
They continued eating and talking for the next five minutes when all of a sudden the zeta tube chimed up and announced the arrival of the original team. Garfield and Perdita paused and paled a little.
"I thought you said that they weren't going to be back until Monday?!" Perdita asked with a scared tone in her voice.
"They were!" Garfield said back with a scared tone of his own.
"Garfield!" M'Gann's voice called out in an angry tone.
"Oh my gosh look at this place!" Artemis's voice called out.
Garfield and Perdita slowly walked out of the kitchen to see the original team looking absolutely shocked at the mess that was the living room of the Hub.
"He…..hey guys." Garfield said nervously, "You're back early." He added, rubbing the back of his neck.
"How…..how was the concert?" Perdita asked nervously, with her hands behind her back.
The original team only glared at them.
All of the younger kids were gathered in the living room all sitting on the couches with the original team standing before them. And boy if looks could kill.
"Did you all really think that no one at this party was going to record videos of it and post them on Flitter International?" Kaldur asked, his voice full of disappointment. He then brought out his phone and showed the younger ones a video of Garfield and Ed crowd surfing the crowd.
"Yeah we probably should have thought of that." Garfield said sheepishly.
"I'm just glad no one dropped me." Ed said.
"Enough." Kaldur said, frowning, "This is very serious." He added.
"What were you all thinking?!" Artemis exclaimed, "I specifically told you all know funny business and this is what you pull?! I expected this from others, but not from you two!" She added, turning her attention to Violet and Tara.
The two girls only hung their heads in shame.
"The same goes to you two." Conner said, looking at Victor and Forager, "You two knew this was wrong and you went along with it. Especially you Forager." He added.
Forager looked down and whined a little.
"And what would you're father say about this Vic?" Conner asked, "I'm sure he'd be disappointed, too." He added.
"I don't think so since he came by at the end and partied himself." Victor said shrugging.
"Wait what?!" Conner exclaimed.
"Speaking of Vic's dad, I'm sure you're parents and guardians would approve of this either." Raquel said to Cassie, Jaime, Bart, Ed, and Virgil.
The five of them only looked back at her with a deer in headlights look on their faces.
"Traci you were actually apart of this?!" Zatanna asked her protégée, who was looking anywhere but her mentor, fiddling with her fingers nervously.
"I was promised free snacks!" Traci exclaimed, looking back up at her mentor, "Snacks are my weakness! I couldn't refuse that! What could I have done?!" She added.
"Don't use your snack obsession as an excuse!" Zatanna said, "And you call me that's what you could have done!" She added.
"But I'm not a snitch." Traci said.
Zatanna just sighed and face palmed, "Seriously Traci I don't understand why-!" She stopped once she saw a bruise on Traci's neck.
"Traci is that…is that a hickey on your neck?" Zatanna asked, shocked.
Traci immediately covered her hickey with her hand, "Uhhhh….no." She said.
Zatanna then got a closer look at Traci, "Wait a minute…..Traci…you're glowing." She said.
"What…what do you mean?" Traci asked nervously.
Zatanna then looked at Jaime, who was sitting next to Traci, "Jaime you are, too." She said.
Jaime's eyes were just darting around the room, "Uhhhhhhhhhhh." Was all that came out of his mouth.
"Wait…" Zatanna said, before she let out a loud gasp, covering her mouth.
"Zatanna what is wrong with you?" Artemis asked.
"OH MY GOSH DID YOU JUMP JAIME'S BONES?!" Zatanna exclaimed.
Traci and Jaime only stammered in response, trying to find their words and blushing profusely.
"Oh my goodness they did." Raquel said laughing, "It's all over their faces." She added, still laughing.
"YOU TWO ACTUALLY DID IT!" Zatanna exclaimed, "AND YOU DIDN'T CALL ME AFTERWARDS?!" She added.
"ZATANNA!" Raquel, Artemis, and M'Gann exclaimed.
"WHAT?!" Zatanna exclaimed, looking at them incredulously.
Traci only buried her head in Jaime's lap out of complete embarrassment.
"I don't know why y'all are acting so shocked at this." Cassandra said, "With how they've been acting around each other lately it was bound to happen sooner or later.
"Cassandra!" Cissie said, elbowing her in her rib.
"What? It's true!" Cassandra said.
Traci let out a loud groan, completely embarrassed at how everyone was commenting on her sex life. Jaime comfortingly rubbed her back.
"Hey enough with the snark, Cass." Dick said, "I surprised at all of you. What do you think Bruce will have to say about all this?" He added, looking at Cassandra, Stephanie, Tim, and Cissie.
"Dick I tried to stop them." Tim said.
This caused all of the younger kids to look at Tim incredulously.
"Really Tim?!" Cassie asked.
"Yes." Tim said, "I did try to stop you all." He added.
"Yeah, but then you joined in on the fun!" Cassie said.
"Yeah Tim you partied harder than us." Cissie said.
"You and Grant sung bad karaoke together once it was set up." Cassandra said.
"You and Grant also rode on the mechanical bull together." Stephanie said.
"Mechanical bull?! M'Gann exclaimed. She then looked towards the side and finally saw the bull.
"Garfield….WHY IS THERE A MECHANICAL BULL IN THE LIVING ROOM?!" M'Gann exclaimed.
"Uhhh…..uhhhhh." Was all that came out of Garfield's mouth.
"You two broke it, too." Stephanie said.
"Dammit I wanted to ride that later." Artemis said to herself. This resulted in Kaldur giving her the "Really?" look.
"Garfield I can't believe you!" M'Gann said, "What were you thinking?!" She added.
"Uhhhhh…that this was my house and I wanted to throw a party." Garfield said sheepishly.
"Don't be a smartass!" M'Gann exclaimed, "Now is not the time!" She added.
Garfield shrinked at the sound of her voice.
Conner moved to put an arm around her to calm her down.
"Why did you do this?!" M'Gann asked Garfield, "And you didn't think to call me?!" M'Gann asked Perdita.
Perdita couldn't look M'Gann in the eye and Garfield was just frozen, not knowing what to say.
"Well?!" M'Gann exclaimed.
"It was all Grant's idea!" Garfield exclaimed.
"DAMN RIGHT IT WAS!" A voice called out.
Everyone turned towards the stairs and saw Grant, looking fresh, dance down the stairs and singing "You Are The Music In Me (Sharpay's Version) from High School Musical 2.
"You are the music in me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, NA, NA, NA!" He belted out as he reached the bottom of the stairs, "What's up Dick and friends?! You guys are back early!" He added.
"Grant." Dick growled.
"Yes?" Grant said without a care in the world.
"This party…was your idea?" Dick asked, still growling.
"You know it dude!" Grant said, "And it was a good one, too!" He added.
"Damn now I wish I was invited." Raquel said.
"Raquel!" Kaldur said, looking at her disapprovingly.
"What?" Raquel said.
"Grant you were supposed to watch them!" Artemis exclaimed.
"Technically I did watch them." Grant said, "Watch them party their asses off!" He added.
"Grant we trusted you!" Dick exclaimed.
"Horrible decision on your part really." Grant said.
"GRANT!" Dick shouted.
"I just want to know how you even got the mechanical bull through the zeta-tube" Zatanna said.
"Oh that was all Stephanie." Grant said.
"GRANT!" Stephanie exclaimed, not appreciating being thrown under she bus.
"What? You did." Grant said, shrugging.
Conner just sighed and face palmed, still trying to calm M'Gann down as she just stared at Grant in shock.
"Well kids it was great meeting you!" Grant said to the younger kids, "You guys are all awesome! Even you Tim with that stick up your ass." He added.
Tim just grumbled in response.
"Until next time!" Grant said.
"Next time?!" Dick asked, "You think that there will be a next time with the stunt you pulled?!" He added.
"Pffft! Of course!" Grant said, "We all know you're gonna ask me to watch these munchkins again in the future." He added.
"I'm not a munchkin!" Traci said, her head still buried in Jaime's lap.
Dick just stared at Grant with disbelief.
"Now where's my fee?" Grant asked.
"Fee?" Dick said, "I wasn't going to pay you to begin with." He added.
"That's not what the $100 from your wallet said." Grant said as he walked towards the zeta tube.
The zeta tube chimed up and announced his exit. Grant Wilson has left the building.
"Wait a minute." Dick said after a moment, taking out his wallet and opening it, "HE STOLE A ONE HUNDRED DOLLAR BILL FROM ME!" He shouted.
