YAY FOR MY DAD! I could see the grim reaper standing by my computer. I could see all of my word documents flashingbefore my eyes! Then, riding in on his massive brain of super-nerdyness, it's a nerd, it's a hovercar, NO it's my father! Just when the files are going to be swallowed into a virtual blackhole, he reaches into his utility belt and pulls out his super amazing computer program!...sorry, but...HAVING A NERD FOR A DAD ROCKS! ahem...back to the story.

I'm sorry for taking so long, but it is longer than usual, so bonus points?...

R&R


Kid Flash was pacing so much he thought he might be wearing a hole in the floor. What am I going to do about this? He was stumped. He had told her everything would be fine, but how could he make sure he hadn't lied to her. So, 1) she doesn't want to leave her "family" 2) she has no where to go 3) she doesn't know yet that she's good. Only three problems. How hard can they be to solve? He groaned as he flopped down on his sofa. Yeah, and world hunger can be solved by genetically producing trees that grow cheese-doodles.

As Jinx walked back to the Hive Five headquarters, she couldn't help wondering what side she was on. If I'm bad, then going out with him is fraternizing with the enemy. If I'm good…she groaned If I'm good, then going home is fraternizing with the enemy. She just kept from banging her hand against the nearest wall to relieve some frustration. Whole building would probably come down. She thought bitterly.

When she got home, she tried to sneak in, but unfortunately, Gizmo had wired something up to the door. They practically pounced on her. "How was your date?" Gizmo said, putting emphasis on the word 'date' so it sounded like two or three words. She shot him a look of contempt and turned, only to find her way blocked. "Get out of my way." She said, calmly. "Who were you out with?" Billy said. She put her legs shoulder length apart, subtly shifting her posture. In under a second, her hand was glowing pink and pressed up against Billy's neck. "I said, move." Her words dripped ice, so cold that even Kyd Wyked felt like shivering. Billy backed away without a sound, leaving the hallway to her room wide open. She walked calmly down it, turned at her door and said "Thank you." Before slamming it in their faces.

Kid Flash paced around his headquarters. It wasn't big, not even medium sized, but he worked alone, so it worked. He went down a hallway, forgetting why he was there. He knew that there had been the seed of an idea in his head, but he couldn't remember it for the life of him now. He opened every door, hoping to be reminded. Computer room, extra bathroom, hallway, empty room…He shrugged and turned away, hoping he'd remember it soon.

In the safety of her own room, she finally let her few tears squeeze out her eyes. She wiped them away, saying out loud. "I'm just tired, I'm only crying because I'm tired." But it sounded like a lie even to her ears. In truth, she didn't know what she was crying about; she had a feeling it had to do with Kid Flash. No, she corrected herself Wally. She sighed. And it doesn't have to do with HIM…well; yes it does, but only in the sense that he's the one who set my mind on this path. Really, going good or staying bad has nothing to do with Wally…not unless I decide I want it to.

If Wally had known that Jinx was thinking about him as much as he was thinking about her, he might have been worried. He knew that he should be sleeping at around….oh…4 a.m., but you know, knowing you should do something is no guarantee you'll do it. He tossed onto his side, but he just couldn't fall asleep. He had tried counting sheep, but he had stopped at about 612. Curse my short attention span! He shut his eyes, determined to at least rest them, if not himself.

She was restless all the next day, determining that staying in her room again might get suspicious; she got up, but was very relieved when the rest of the team decided that there just wasn't anything worth stealing today. Why am I relieved that I'm not going to be doing bad? It's not like I'm good. But a little voice in her head couldn't help but say …yet. She growled at it, and it went scampering for a hiding spot, but the fact that it was there at all unnerved her a little, made her a little jumpy. She didn't know whether she wanted him to show up somewhere or not. He had sent a lot of wheels spinning in her head, and she didn't know if she could face him until they were done.

Wally knew that she'd need time to think the whole good/bad thing over before she made her decision, but he just wanted to see her again, hold her again. There was something there, something just beyond his understanding, something he desperately wanted to know, but without her around, he couldn't even begin to try to understand it. He paced around and around his living room. Wondering again why he had bought an entire sofa instead of just an easy chair. He shook his head to try and clear his thoughts, but the only thing consistently coming to mind was Jinx.

Against her better judgment, she had decided to go for a walk. It's not to find Wally. She told herself, and laughed aloud at how silly of a thing to say that was. Of course it is, Jinx, you moron! Why else would you really have gone for a walk? She found herself ending up in that section of park where she had first been kissed by Wally. It seems so long ago now…It's only been a few days, but they packed quite a punch.

She walked around the clearing, occasionally touching trees or bushes. She was thinking very hard, and almost didn't notice when Wally zoomed into the clearing. He stood right next to her and he held her hand. He was marveling at how much calmer he felt, just by being around her. That question he was so nervous to know the answer to, well, it didn't seem as important as just…being near her. She smiled at him over her shoulder. She didn't receive quite the same calming effect; she was still worried, but not as much as she had been.

She leaned back against him and he wrapped his arms around her waist, putting his head on top of hers. They stood comfortably like that for a few minutes, just soaking up the other one's presence. She turned around, and he instantly wanted to do anything, anything that would take the sad look off of her face. With nothing else coming to mind, he leaned down and kissed her, hoping that it would tell her everything that she needed to hear from him. That I'll always be there for her, that I'll stand by her forever, that I……I love her? His heart leapt into his throat and he suddenly knew the answer to his question, knew what he had needed to be around her to know. I love her! And I'll never let anything happen to her!

She accepted his mouth willingly, knowing that he was trying to soothe the wound that she hadn't known he knew she had. When his tongue slipped into her mouth, she couldn't even be surprised, too many other emotions were going on, but the one rising to the surface was the one she was most scared to name, the one that could change things the most. She didn't want to admit it, but that same little part of her that had said "yet" was definitely rejoicing at the revelation that wasn't a revelation. Her heart knew what was going on, but her mind was too scared to admit it.

When they finally pulled apart, they were both breathing heavily, and she buried her face in his chest, letting the tears flow for a reason that she either didn't know, or didn't want to.
