Kiss

I do not own red hood and the outlaws


Roy and Jason are walking around in Gotham. They together with some other people of the batfamily and friends are going to play a game of laser tag. They do that every once in a while. At first they went playing paint ball but that got to out of hand so it was changed into laser gaming. But before they go to the place where they are supposed to meet up with the others they first go visit Jason's favourite bookstore. A new book has come out that he wants to read and if there is one thing you should know about Jason according to Roy it is that you should never stand between him and his books. While Jason is buying his new book Roy sees on a piece of paper taped to the door of the store that they are searching for someone to hire. When they are out of the store and Jason is gently putting his book inn his bag Roy points towards the piece of paper.

''Isn't that something for you?''

Jason looks at the place where Roy is pointing and reads the paper. He frowns. ''I don't think so.''

''C'mon dude it is totally something for you. You love reading books and you know all about them.''

''I am a very busy man. I don't have time for work.''

Roy raises his eyebrows. ''Yeah super busy but I am sure you can work for two or three days that they are asking. It would be good for you to be more under the people.''

Jason seems to think about it. ''It does sounds fun but I am not the person they are looking for.''

Now it is Roy's turn to frown. ''What do you mean?''

''Well for once I am old. Wouldn't they be looking for someone around sixteen? Who is cheaper?''

''Well you cannot know that for sure and you are almost a regular here you always buy your books here and didn't you say the owners are a old married couple who are very nice?'' Roy looks his friend into the eyes but Jason looks away.

''Doesn't mean she will chose me. People might be afraid of me so i might scare customers away.''

''Jay-bird try to be more optimistic if you don't try it you will never know.'' Roy walks closer to his friend and slings an arm over his shoulder.

''It could be nice to have a job, have something do to and earn some legal money.'' Jason admits softly.

''That's the way c'mon let's go inside!'' Roy smiles as he leads his friend back inside. After they asked the lady about them searching for someone she was eager to tell them all Jason had to do was give them a resume and in two weeks they would call. After that they went back on their way to meet the others for the laser game.

''We are probably very late.'' Roy says.

''And whose fault is that?'' Jason replies.

Roy laughs. ''I am your friend I know you Jay you are going to love the job.''

''If I get it.''

''Let's not think about it up with a strategy for our laser game. Somehow I can never seem to win. An I don't have much hope for today because Dick and Helena are teaming up. Did you ever win?'' Roy asks Jason.

''I did once when I was teaming up with Rose and a draw when I was with Kate. ''

''You think we stand a chance?''

''Well Alfred and Kate are teaming up today too so I don't think we stand a chance. Not even Dick and Helena can defeat that team. But it is fun trying.'' Jason shrugs. He doesn't mind losing from Kate or Alfred. Losing from Dick though is another story.

''That is true.'' Roy agrees.

''And after we get Alfred cookie's.'' Jason adds smiling.

''I'm always in for some of Alfred cookies.'' Roy laughs.


Author's note

I wrote this to let you guys know Roy is Jason's best friend and he is alive in this universe! I didn't really have a great idea for involving Roy so I just went with this. I tried to put some humor in it at the end but I think I failed. I hope you enjoy it nonetheless. Next chapter will be about Jason and Sasha and the one after that will be about Jason and Stephanie.
