Aqualad had been sitting in the kitchen for thirty minutes waiting on the pizza delivery guy, hoping that the pizza would be at least another five minutes in coming, so it would be free. Speedy had recently joined him at the table, stomach rumbling.

"I'm hungry." Speedy said for the fifth time in two minutes, "When is the pizza going to get here?" His stomach rumbled again.

"A few more minutes and its free. Where are the twins and Bumblebee?" Aqualad asked.

"Bee is on a date with Cy. The twins went to play somewhere…with Beastboy…on a freeway, hopefully."

Aqualad laughed. "They are annoying, all right. Little tornados of terror, but we shouldn't wish that upon Beastboy."

"Yeah, Beastboy is ok." Speedy said. 'And kind of cute' he thought to himself, 'but not as cute as Aqualad'. Aqualad nodded when the doorbell rang.

"PIZZA" both boys shouted at once. Aqualad didn't even bother to get his wallet out. It had been nearly forty-five minutes.

After glowering at the pizza boy enough to make him apologize, Aqualad got his free pizza, and Speedy rejoiced.

"Can you hand me a bottle of water?" Aqualad asked Speedy. Speedy did and opened his own brown bottle that had 'IBC' written across the side.

"Cheese is my favorite type of pizza. Actually, pizza is my favorite type of pizza." Speedy said as he took another drink of the rootbeer.

"What are you drinking?" Aqualad asked, staring at the brown bottle in Speedy's hand.

"Rootbeer."

"Rootbeer? What is rootbeer?" Aqualad asked, confused.

"YOU'VE NEVER HAD ROOTBEER?" Speedy yelled. Aqualad shook his head. "Here." Speedy thrust the bottle towards Aqualad.

Aqualad accepted the bottle, staring cautiously into the dark depths of the sweet liquid. He hesitantly took a sip, and then a longer drink.

"This isn't half-bad…no, this is amazing!" Aqualad was enthused over the soda. He drank it all down then asked for another bottle. After finishing his second bottle, he hugged Speedy, making the red headed archer freeze up.

"Speedy that was wonderful!" Aqualad then realized what he had been doing, and blushed, ever so slightly before pulling away. "Sorry." Aqualad mumbled.

"It's ok." Speedy patted his friend on the back, "You just really surprised me, is all. It's not like you to get excited and act spontaneously."

"Are you saying I'm not spontaneous?" Speedy shook his head.

"I didn't mean it like that! It's just that you don't really surprise people with the way you act."

"Really…well, maybe I should!" Aqualad suddenly grabbed Speedy by the shoulders, pulling the shorter boy forward and quickly kissing him. "Was that spontaneous? Was that surprising?"

"Yes…but not as much as this." Speedy pulled Aqualad back down for another kiss, which he quickly deepened, running his tongue along Aqualad's lips. And when Aqualad moaned, wrapping his arms around Speedy's neck, Speedy claimed Aqualad's mouth.

Tongues clashed, moans escaped for several minutes, until their minds suddenly realized they needed oxygen.

"Oh wow." Was all Aqualad said.

Speedy smirked. "I've wanted to do that for a while now." He admitted, smugly.

"You, too?" Aqualad asked. Speedy was surprised.

"You wanted to kiss me?"

"I wouldn't have done it the first time, if I hadn't." Speedy smiled deviously.

"Does this mean we're dating?" Aqualad was silent for a moment.

"I guess…if you want to?"

"Oh, I certainly want to. Now where were we?" Speedy quickly captured Aqualad's lips with his own.

End A/N: If you have never had IBC Rootbeer, than you need to. I love that stuff and I may be slightly obsessed with rootbeer in general. Anyways, this was my first completely slash, slash. Hope I didn't do too badly with it.
