It was terrible of her.

It really, really was.

She saw how he watched her and used it to her advantage.

She laughed.

She flirted.

She touched.

And if he was anything like she thought he was? Well, he'd snap soon enough.

Her dark hues danced with excitement despite the quiet laughter that left her when Robin continued to regale her of stories about school.

.

Conner was a typical teenager.

Well... maybe not typical.

But the hormones, the angst, the anger - it was all there. And then some because, well, he was a superhero with powers.

He tried not to pay attention to it because he had more then enough to worry about but sometimes being a teenage boy couldn't be ignored.

Like now.

His icy blue hues caught her through his peripherals. He was talking to Kaldur but his attention wandered the moment he felt her presence. Damn. It didn't even take him long anymore. There was always a subtle shift in the atmosphere when she entered a room. He picked up her heart rate, scent, everything when she came anywhere close to him. His hearing sharpened and he heard her laugh at something the freakin' boy wonder said and he clenched his fists.

" - to her my friend."

Suddenly Conner became very interested in what Kaldur was saying.

His eloquent response was a sharp bark of, "What?"

Kaldur's gaze was amused, his smile knowing, "To her. To Kagome. You should talk to her instead of avoiding her all the time."

Conner tried to beat back the blush that rose over his cheeks, "For what?"

The team leader shook his head in amusement, "It's plain as day, your feelings. You should go and speak to our new teammate every now and then instead of just swooping her out of danger."

Conner crossed his arms and his glowering face said it all, his voice a low grumble, "I'm not really much of a talker."

Kaldur's eyes twinkled with gentle humor as he murmured, "Then show her."

The other boy just grunted and walked away.

He cast one last look behind him and his eyes narrowed when she accepted a hug from Wally.

Fists clenched, he left the room.

.

Kagome scowled internally as she watched his broad shoulders exit the room.

She wasn't one for games, honestly! But she had been apart of the Young Justice for nearly a month now and she couldn't help but like the standoffish and grouchy young hero. She had learned from her time spent with Inuyasha that sometimes, you have to play dirty to get what you want. Kikyo had made her insecure, but she was a 21st century girl! And despite his birth... he was a 21st century guy!

She would just have to up the stakes a bit, that was all.

.

The common areas such as a kitchen and living room were... well, common so he shouldn't have been surprised when she took a seat opposite the couch he was on. He shouldn't have been but several of the other members were out running errands or with their own mentors and he just forgot she was there. Kagome and Conner didn't really have mentors and therefore were left to their own devices.

The TV was on and there was a movie playing that he lost interest in the moment he felt the couch dip with her weight.

Her heart was slow and steady and she smelled like she had just stepped from the shower and her damp hair attested to that scent. She was wearing a pair of biker shorts, short enough and tight enough they could have been considered underwear and a loose pink tank top. She was laying against the arm of the couch and her eyes were bright and welcoming when she caught his stare, "Hey, Conner! Anything good on?"

He shook his head and made a non-committal sound when her head turned back to the TV. His eyes moved over her form and his mouth went dry when he came to her chest. No bra, he thought with surprise and with a little heat. His nostrils flared as he took a deep breath and he leaned his head back against the couch, eyes closed. His heart was hammering in his chest, he could feel it's quick thump.

He jumped when he felt one of her dainty feet touch the side of this thigh and her grin was sheepish, "Sorry!"

"It's fine." he bit out, voice strained.

Her eyes twinkled as she wiggled her pink painted toes against him, "You're not warm?" There was something in her voice he didn't recognize. "You're always in pants and I swear Wally turned off the A/C today!" She let out a whoosh of air and fanned her face. He gulped and shrugged his shoulders his eyes catching a droplet from her damp hair sliding down between her breasts. "I keep telling that boy not to touch it!"

Her face was set in a pretty little scowl, her lips pursed.

Her blunt nails brushed against her chest to remove that pesky water droplet and he ached - oh he ached.

He understood sex. Got it on an educational level.

But the stirrings of arousal were so different in comparison to the books.

She looked ripe for the taking.

Hormones were a pain in the ass, he thought to himself as his mouth dried and his tongue felt heavy. His hands clenched in an effort not to reach out and touch her. She shifted and he caught an enticing view of the side of her breast from the arm opening in the tank top. Conner wanted to leave and run away because he could feel heat crawling through his chest and going lower. Fuck, he thought again, this time more a plea then a curse in hopes she shifted just a little bit more.

The foot pressed against his thigh casually moved into his lap and he almost jumped again. She ignored him as her eyes remained concentrated on whatever the fuck was playing on TV. He suddenly didn't know where to put his hands and his cheeks flared as her wiggling, painted toes came a little closer to his crotch. His head hit the back of the couch again and when he looked back at her this time, her cerulean orbs, darker then his, were twinkling playfully.

Her voice was a purr, "Conner... what has you so flushed?" Her toes wiggled.

And then it just clicked.

His brows furrowed and his lips turned into a frown.

Oh fuck no, he grouched, two can play this game.

And play the game he did as he stood from the couch and took off to his room, leaving a confused little miko behind him.

.

Oh how the tables turned.

Kagome spent the next several weeks in a state of confused, sexual frustration.

More then once, she was sure that Conner had brushed her rear or her chest on purpose when removing her from precarious situations during missions.

But she wasn't 100% certain because each time she looked at him, he didn't seem to realize what he was doing.

Plus this was Conner, not Wally.

Then there were multiple instances of Conner walking around shirtless when there was no one else around but her.

She had to wipe her mouth several times when that happened.

Then there was the incident.

Her cheeks still flushed when she thought about it.

She was making lunch for herself, Conner, and Kaldur. She had been straining to reach the spices, cursing Megan for always putting them too high, when she felt him behind her. She knew it was him from his presence and just the way he felt. Her back, pressed tightly to his front, her curves molded against the flat planes of his chest. He had leaned down, his breath caressing her ear hotly, "I got it." The spice was placed in her hand before he moved away from her, taking his warmth with him.

He had felt so good.

So damn good.

Her eyes narrowed.

Lips curling upward she donned a bathing suit.

Enough was enough.

And she was tired of games.

Granted, she did start it, but it was time she ended it.

.

Conner looked up from the sandwich he was eating when he heard the door open to the kitchen area.

And he had double take.

Because there was Kagome.

In a two piece, barely there bathing suit.

She had a large hat on her head, sunglasses perched on her nose, and a towel slung over her shoulder.

She hummed as she walked around the kitchen while he had to remember to chew before swallowing.

He coughed when he finally swallowed, "Where're you going?"

She barely looked at him when she began to look for snacks, "The beach."

His eyes narrowed, "You're going to the beach in that?"

Kagome frowned prettily as she looked down at her teal bathing suit, "You don't like it?"

He loved it! God, he loved it and he wanted to worship her like a goddess as long as she wore it. For him only though. Not the entire beach; the damn thing barely covered her straining nipples! He put his plate down and crossed his arms over his chest, "You're not going."

Kagome's own eyes narrowed at him, "Yes I am."

He took a step toward her, features darkening, "The hell you are."

Her lips curled and it made something heat inside him, "You're not the boss of me, Conner!"

He took several more steps toward her, crowding her space and pressing her against the counter top. His hands caged her, clenching the counter. He felt the rock strain, wanting to crack under his hands, while he bit out, "Kagome..." his voice was low and dangerous and she couldn't stop the shiver that raced down her spine at his darkening eyes, "You. Are. Not. Going." He was nose to nose to with her, his blood was on fire as it raced through his flesh. "You've been teasing me for weeks and if that doesn't make me the damn boss of you then I don't know what the fuck does. You weren't teasing Kaldur or Wally - you were teasing me. So buck up and deal with the consequences."

Fire lit her gaze and his body ached with need, "Consequences? What cons- "

His lips were on hers, swallowing her words. everything about Conner was demanding and that included his kisses.

His hands were on her body before she could catch her breath.

She felt the strength in his hands as they groped her thighs and breasts.

He groaned deeply when she explored the hard planes of his body.

His lips were close to her ear when he murmured, "For all this torture you've put me through, I think you deserve punishment." She nodded wordlessly and was surprised when he chuckled, "Glad you agree."

There was a tearing sound and then her clothing (or what little there was) fell in tatters around her.

Her cheeks flushed, "Conner!"

His grin was dark and feral, "No need to be shy." His lips touched hers, taking her protest and making her forget why she was protesting in the first place. He pulled way, "Just you and me for the next few hours." Kagome audibly gulped as Conner's eyes took her nude form. He almost seemed to think about it before saying, "Not enough time but it'll do."

And then he was carrying her away to his room, her room, it didn't matter as long as there was a bed.

Or floor.

Whatever.
