I know I took longer than usual to get this up, I had a Mu Alpha Theta competition and I wasn't home!

Please read and enjoy!


Gizmo stared at the look on Jinx's face. "…you're…you're smiling!" Jinx looked at him over her shoulder. "Why so I am." She flashed him a grin, not caring how confused they must all be getting. Billy looked at her and said "Why are you dressed funny?" She was wearing a soft sort of flowy skirt and a shirt and jacket. Her hair was down, and a smile did indeed light her face. "I'm going out tonight."

They all looked at her funny and Mammoth piped up "You mean, like a date with someone?" She looked at him and her eyes glowed pink briefly, but she calmed herself. "Are you implying I couldn't get one?" Mammoth cowered down. "No!" She grinned. "Yes, like a date." Gizmo was suddenly beside her, like a fly she desperately wanted to swat. "OoOoh!" he grinned wickedly "Who with?" She smiled at him with mock sweetness, looked down at her watch and said "None-ya!" as she sprinted out the door.

Kid Flash paced on the block that they had agreed to meet on, resisting the urge to sprint a few times around the world to let off some energy. He was just starting to be afraid she'd decided to blow him off, when she came walking up the street. He thought that his mouth was going to literally drop open. When she was standing next to him, he shook it off and grinned "Hey." She smiled at him, saying "So what's this huge surprise that you have planned, Kid Flash?"

He grimaced. "Kid Flash sounds so…..well, so like I'm still working. Call me Wally" She smiled at him. "Ok, Wally, so what's this huge surprise that you have planned?" He laughed "That's why it's called a surprise!" She rolled her eyes, mock annoyance apparent on her face. He grinned mischievously at her and grabbed her hand to pull her down the nearest alley. He quickly looked both ways before picking her up and running. Scenery from all around the world flashed past her and she marveled at the experience. France, Spain, Germany…She lost track of the countries and just pressed closer to him for warmth, he was right in that she needed a jacket, the wind was cold.

He finally slowed to a stop somewhere near the ocean. She grinned as she noticed a picnic blanket. He smiled at her and walked over to it, still carrying her. He set her on her feet and said "I'll be right back." She smiled "O" He was back, carrying a picnic basket. "k." She rolled her eyes, but she was laughing. They sat down and ate.

When they were done, Kid Flash looked at her worriedly. "Look, Jinx. I really, really enjoy being with you but…." She lowered her eyes. "The villain thing?" She whispered. It wasn't a question, but a statement; she had wondered when it was going to come up. "I'm not going to try to change you, Jinx." She looked at him incredulously "Ok, so I am, but not too hard." She looked up at him. "Jinx, if I catch you and the Hive Five stealing again, I have to put you in jail. And I don't want to put you in jail." She felt a little tear rolling down her face, and she wiped it away angrily.

When he saw she was crying, he walked over to her and sat behind her, easing her into his lap. At first she resisted, but not for long. She put her arms around his neck and leaned her head on his shoulder. She could feel more tears rolling down her face, but she just let them come. She looked up at him "I don't know if I can leave the Hive Five, Wally. It's not easy to leave the closest thing you have ever had to a family." He stroked her back slowly, leaning his head on hers. "It'll be ok, Jinx, we'll figure something out. It will be ok." But neither one of them believed it.
