I'm sorry that this chapter is really really short. I ran out of ideas...


"Momma? Can Daddy spend the night?" Jaiyden asked, yawning, rubbing his deep green eyes.

Artemis and Wally exchanged awkward glances. Three months. Three months since Wally had packed his bags and walked right out the door.

"Can he?" Jai begged.

"Sorry buddy. I promised I'd help Uncle Dick set up Johnny's bedroom in him and Aunt Zee's home. Maybe another night, okay?" Wally said, kissing his son's cheek.

"Okay..." Jaiyden frowned.

"See you later, Artemis." Wally said.

"Bye Wally. See you Friday." Artemis murmured.

Once Wally was out of the apartment, Artemis scooped Jai up, setting him on her waist. "Did you get a bath today?" She asked him.

"No."

Artemis forced herself notto roll her eyes. "Did you get dinner?"

"Yeah. But I'm still hungry." He told her.

"Okay. Lets make some Mac n Cheese, get you in the tub, and put you to bed." Artemis cooed, walking into the kitchen.


"You like staying with your Dad?" She asked, lathering up his hair with his shampoo.

"Uh huh! But I miss him... Can Daddy come home? Do you want him to come home?" Jai asked her.

Artemis sighed. "Yes. I miss your Dad. And I want him to come home. But I'm scared he doesn't wanna come home..."

"He does. He gets sad whenever someone mentions you."

Artemis smiled at what her little boy told her. Wally wanted to come home. Unless Jaiyden had misunderstood...

Without another word, she rinsed his hair, got him out of the tub, dried him off, and put him to bed.


"God! I hatebeing pregnant!" Zatanna groaned, falling on to the couch in the Watch Tower, her thirty-six week stomach completely covering her legs.

"I'm excited. Me and Conner find out the gender later this week." M'gann smirked.

"You're not having it be a surprise again?" Artemis asked. M'gann shook her head no.

"Hey Raquel. Do you know what you're having?" Zatanna asked. Raquel nodded, a frown on her face.

"What's wrong?" M'gann asked.

"It's a boy. I figured Kaldur would be excited, knowing that it was a boy, but he seems more sad..." She sighed.

"You don't think he's going to leave, do you?" Artemis asked.

"God I hope not..." She sniffled, earning a hug from her teammates.

"Uh-oh!" Zatanna gasped, pulling away.

"What's wrong?" Raquel asked.

"Zatanna!" Artemis gasped.

"You're water broke!" M'gann cried.

"Crap! Artemis, help me to the MedBay. Raquel, go get Dinah. M'gann, go get Dick." Zatanna groaned, standing up.


After seventy-two hours of labor, Jonathan Richard Zatara-Graysonwas born, weighting a hefty eight pounds-six ounces, and was twenty-one inches long.

"He's so precious." Zatanna cooed, holding their baby boy. "He is, isn't he?" Dick grinned.

"He looks like my Mom..." He commented.

"He does?" Zatanna asked, surprised.

"Yeah. He has her nose, cheeks, and chin." Dick explained to her.

"... Your Mom was clearly an adorablebaby." She smiled.

"Marry me."

"What?" Zatanna gasped, her jaw dropping.

"Marry me." He repeated.

She smiled at him, kissing his cheek.

"Hmm, nah."

"Zee!" Dick whined.

"I'm kidding, bird-boy. Of course I'll marry you, you dork." She smirked, earning a kiss on the lips.


"Come on Dinah! What is it? What's the gender?" M'gann begged, her shirt pulled up, exposing her nineteen week stomach.

"Okay, okay! Relax! I need to turn on the machine." Dinah told her, smirking.

"So any thing specific you want?" Dinah asked them.

"I want it to be healthy." Conner said, his chin on M'gann's shoulder.

"Bullshit! You want a boy!" M'gann scoffed, rolling her eyes, as Dinah started the ultrasound.

"It's a girl." Dinah muttered.

"Huh?" They asked, not hearing her.

"The baby's going to be a girl." She repeated.

M'gann and Conner gasped. Lisa was going to get a baby sister. "She's healthy, measuring correctly, and has a good, strong heartbeat." Dinah explained to them.

Once the appointment was over, Conner and M'gann walked down the hallway. Halfway to the Zeta Tubes, Superman stopped them.

"Something wrong?" Conner asked, concerned. "Conner. I need you to come with me. Now." Clark sighed, as he walked passed them.

Shrugging, Conner kissed M'gann's cheek, and followed his genetic parent.

"What's wrong?" Conner questioned.

"I need to show you something." He explained, going towards the interrogation room.

Once they got to their destination, Conner looked through the one-way mirror, and saw a little boy, with dark black hair covering his eyes, coloring in a coloring book with Diana.

"Who... Who is he?" Conner asked.

"His name is Mark. He's your son..."
