Chapter 7:
A Little Mix Up
"Shoot! Tomorrow's the Winter Wonderland Dance!" Richard said.
"Just ask Kori out dude!" Gar urged. It has been about two months since Kori arrived to Jump city High, and Richard's life. And fortunately Rich and Kori are best friends.
"Yeah, just get it over with." Cy added. Raven approached the three.
"You are so blind Richard. I'm pretty sure she liked you." Raven said briskly.
"Really!" Dick questioned truly shocked.
"You IDIOT!" Raven fumed. "Don't you remember all those times you guys almost-"
"I thought that was just me," Dick said rubbing the back of his neck. Cyborg, BB and Raven toppled over and sighed, "Relax, I was just joking. I'll try ok?"
During gym class:
"Kori" Dick said breathlessly, he was holding a punching bag for Kori to practice her martial arts techniques.
"Yes?" The red head said continuing her assault on the large red bag.
"I-just-wanted-to-ask-you-"
"Hey Kori, wanna go to the dance with me?" A voice asked smoothly. Kori turned around to meet eyes with an orange haired boy.
"Ummm….I do not know Roy…"
"C'mon, it's not like you have anyone else to go with…right?" Roy said with a smirk.
"I shall…think about it." Kori said looking at Richard's blank stare.
"Alright," Roy said satisfied. He walked to the other side of the room to meet up with his group of jocks.
"No wonder why people call him Speedy." Robin murmured.
"Richard…what were you saying earlier? You, wanted to ask me something?" Kori questioned.
"Oh! Oh yeah…D-do you want to-"
"Richard! Richy-poo? Will you go to the dance with me?" Kitten screeched. Richard sighed. Kori melted on the ground shocked. Kitten began strolling over to the boy…and blob.
"Kori? Are you going with Roy?" Richard asked quickly. Kori returned to normal and leaned in.
"Are you going with Kitten?" Kori asked snappily. Richard glanced quickly at the approaching blonde and back to the angered red head before him.
"Look, if I liked her I would go with her but I-"
"You dooooo care!" Kitten said hugging Dick. Apparently Kitten heard the words 'like' and ' go with her'. Star was outraged. "See you there Richy-poo." She said walking back to her station from across the room. Richard rolled his eyes.
"I was going to say would you-"
"Save it!" Kori said angrily; she turned around, "Roy, I will go with you!" Star yelled to Roy Harper. He smiled from across the room.
After class:
"SHE WHAT!" Cy yelled.
"Yell a little louder I think only half the world heard you." Raven said sarcastically. Gar cracked up hysterically.
"Yeah…Speedy asked Kori and Kitten asked me. Both girls misunderstood and now Kori excepted Roy because she was angry at me and Kitten expects me to go with her."
"Well I guess that about sums it up." Raven added. Richard's eyes narrowed at the petite girl. "Sorry, I couldn't resist."
"Dude, the dance is tomorrow! Tell her there." BB commented.
"She probably won't even talk to me." Robin said miserably.
"Leave that to us!" Cyborg said pulling BB and Raven towards him. Robin grinned slightly.
