This chapter takes place right after Tag from Book I: Morf Z ot A.


"How am I supposed to not kiss you in front of everyone? You have a pretty kissable face." -Dick and Zee wake up from their quick nap after fixing their issues.

"I don't know but you need to control yourself…I know it's going to be hard since I love the taste of your lips, but we need to play with the Team."

"And what are we going to tell them?"

"Nothing. Let's say that we…that we were watching a series together and you watched episodes without me."

"Why can't you be the one cheating?"

"Because I was mad at you…it wouldn't make sense."

"Mmm…What about…you knew that Batman benched me, but I went on a mission either way. That's more believable."

"Fine. Let's go with the rest."

"But first…" -He grabs her and kiss her on the lips.

"One kiss for the road." -She puts her mischievous smile.

"Y'know. We still have to kiss for the first time as a couple…" -Her voice sends him shivers down his spine.

"What are you talking about? We already did that." -She snakes her arms around him.

"That wasn't a kiss…this is a kiss." -Zee puts her lips on his' and unlike the other more innocent kiss, she opens her mouth a little and with her tongue she asks for permission, which was granted in a second. Their inexperience tongues fight for dominance. Dick couldn't help himself and puts his arms around her lithe waist bringing her closer to her. As the kiss continues, she pushes him against the wall as she keeps her assault, the lack of air was their greatest enemy that make him broke apart.

"That was…woow." -Both were panting, red and with their lips slightly swollen.

"And don't you forget it." -She was still overwhelmed and couldn't believe her own boldness.

"This will just make harder to pretend."

"But we have to…just endure and you'll get a reward when we are alone." -He smiled at her before deciding to step out of her room.


"Finally. I was starting to get worried about you, Bird Brains. I thought that Zee had murdered you and was getting rid of the evidence."

"She almost did."

"But we finally fix things."

"Good. We can't allow our personal issues risk our teamwork."

"But what happened between the two of you?" -The Martian curiosity got the best of her.

"I was mad a Robin because he was reckless on a mission with Batman. He told me the other day that he was benched to rest, and I saw in the news that the Boy Wonder was fighting some thugs…"

"What did we told you about flying solo, kid?" -Red Arrow was worried about the youngest of his friends.

"Y'know that I can't look away if something bad happens."

"But you know I…I mean we can't lose you." -Zee was still scared about losing him after the whole turning into a tree debacle.

"I know, Zee. I'm sorry." -He takes her hand and squeeze it to reassure her that he was sorry.

"So, are you stopping?" -Reluctantly they release hands to keep with their charade.

"No, but I promise her that I'd call her for back up or at very least let her know what I did instead of her finding out through the news or the medbay."

"You better. You know that we are just a Zeta-tube away."

"Got ya. What about we put the dust under the rug, and we watch a movie."

"I'm in."

"Yes, we can watch Joe Black. I've been meaning to see it!" -The Martian flies to the TV and puts the movie on. Dick and Zee were sitting close to each other in the larger couch with Robin half lying in the couch's arm. Red was at the other end of the couch, Kaldur was on the smaller one, Artemis and Megan opted to sit on the floor with multiple pillows for their comfort. Half and hour have pass and Zee starts to shiver and Dick, who was still on his Robin suit uses his cape to keep them warm and wrapped them like a burrito. Dick got an idea and look over their teammates that were deep in the movie and peck Zee on the cheek.

"What are you doing?" -Zee whispers to him with a huge smile.

"I just remember that I haven't kiss you on the cheek, yet. This is the first."

"Fine but just be careful…no one has to see it." -Zee keeps readjusting herself until she was lying on her back in his chest and seated between his legs. A mischievous idea crosses her mind and turns her head a little a kiss his neck.

"What was that for?" -Dick trembles with her action and feeling her butt pressing against his namesake, tries to move to avoid her feeling him, if she didn't already.

"First neck kiss and what are you doing? Stop moving, I'm comfortable like this." -Dick tried to keep his mind occupied with the movie but his thoughts couldn't get away from the magician. Megan starts to feel Robin's uneasiness.

"Robin. What's wrong?"

"It's just the movie…like I'm sure that it's not coincidence that the death picks a good-looking guy like Brad Pitt. She totally was waiting for him to die."

"And? I don't blame her…"

"I thought you were into chatty red heads and not blondes…"

"Listen, here you little…" -Artemis stops mid sentence realizing that Zatanna was sleeping hugging him.

"Zee just passed out."

"Then we should go to sleep, and we can watch the movie later…" -Megan took everything to the kitchen with her telekinesis and Dick takes Zee in his arms bridal style, avoiding waking her up. He was making his way towards her room but was stopped by Artemis.

"Robin."

"What's wrong?"

"Mmm…thanks"

"Uh? What for?"

"For helping Zee. She has a lot of problems sleeping and the only times she is at rest is when you are around and…well I care a lot about her and stuff and y'know." -Dick smiles softly seeing the archer struggling to show her emotions but given her background he wasn't surprised.

"It's my pleasure and Artemis…"

"Yes?"

"You help her a lot too." -Artemis smiles softly before feeling awkward.

"Anyway…goodnight." -Megan, who was side-lined a bit to give Artemis' privacy to express herself, gets closer to them as gives wishes them goodnight before entering her room with Artemis.

Robin enters her room and puts her on the bed before taking off his cape and shoes. He looks at her deeply asleep and his eyes focus on her lips. He struggles whether to kiss her or not, but he gives in and gets closer and kiss her softly. Zee feels the familiar feeling and deepens the kiss.

"Taking advantage of me on my sleep? That isn't right…"

"It's just payback, you did the same while I was unconscious." -She was more sleep than awake but still blushes.

"Not the same. It was for your own good."

"This was for your own good as well or didn't you like it?"

"I love it but get in the bed. I want to sleep, and I need my pillow. Raewpeels No!
