Okay … now it's the chapter I've been getting the most comments about … I didn't realize there were so many Kid Flash fans out there! … So to not keep you waiting … enjoy …
Six Confessions
Kid Flash
"So there've been some rumors floating around that you've been dating a villain …" Speedy jested.
Kid Flash laughed.
"So who's the lucky girl?"
Still stretched out on the bench, a sly smile came across Kid Flash's face. He couldn't help but love the limelight.
"Wait a minute …" Cyborg interrupted. He had put the pieces together and remembered that Kid Flash had brought a 'friend' during their battle against the Brotherhood of Evil. "You're with her now!?"
Kid Flash knew that if someone were to figure it out, it would be Cyborg. He nodded.
"What can I say …" He responded.
"Alright man! How is she?" Cyborg spoke again.
The other's were still waiting to find out who this girl was that Cyborg and Kid Flash were talking about, and were getting steadily annoyed that they ignored them.
"Hold up, who is she?" Robin finally cut in.
"Jinx."
"Wait a second … you mean the girl who kicked us out of our own house … who almost made Cyborg switch sides at H.I.V.E. … and who beat us up some more … you're with her now!" Beast Boy exhaustedly questioned.
Kid Flash just nodded.
"So the girl that Cyborg used to date when she was a villain is the girl that you're dating now as a good guy?" Aqualad tried to make sense of it. "How did that happen?"
"Well … I caught her trying to steal some good luck charm …"
"Because she's bad luck …" Robin cut in. Kid Flash nodded before moving on.
"… it was her and her H.I.V.E. Five … so I was lenient on them and let them get away with a warning … but she came back, and well … they caught me … but I was seeing how her own team didn't appreciate her … and … she looked lonely … all she wanted was appreciation, so she thought that would happen if she teamed with the Brotherhood …"
Everyone listened intently to Kid Flash's story. They had never realized that some villain's aren't really evil, but just don't fit in. It was almost the exact feelings that Raven, Beast Boy, and Cyborg had felt before they joined the Titans. Raven was always afraid because of what her future held for her. Cyborg was outcast because nobody saw past the mechanical limbs; they never gave him a chance. While with Beast Boy, it was obvious, that a green skinned animal transformer would never fit in, in the first place.
"… so Madame Rouge came down and totally messed me up … I got away but Jinx found me and electrocuted me with something Gizmo made … she was gonna hand me in, but … she didn't … I guess she finally realized that even though you feel out of place, there are people that care … after that … I kept in touch with her … she moved out of the H.I.V.E. Five building and I let her crash at my place …"
"Whoa-whoa-whoa … hold everything folks, you live with her!?" Speedy exclaimed, cutting Kid Flash off in the process.
"… well yeah, I mean she didn't have anywhere else to go …" He shyly responded.
"So you and her … sleep together?" Beast Boy asked with uncertainty.
"Uh … well, I only have one bed … and I offered to sleep on the couch, but she didn't want me to … so … yeah …" Kid Flash tried to explain.
"How come you never told us that she was with you?" Robin questioned.
"Come on Robin … I mean sometimes you just don't want to tell everyone an ex-villain is staying at your place … what would the neighbors think!" He jokingly responded.
Robin nodded, he did save Starfire from some of the fury the city had after their first meeting. She, by herself, nearly wiped out all of downtown.
"So what's she like?" Cyborg asked, wanting to hear Kid Flash's take on her.
"She's outgoing … likes to go out a lot … she's kinda tomboyish, but she's still has a girly side … she likes to watch those romantic mushy movies …" Kid Flash trailed off, thinking about what else he could add.
"So are you two boyfriend-girlfriend?" Aqualad spoke up.
"I-I guess … I haven't really asked her before …"
"So let me get this straight … you persuade her to switch side, you live together, you two always go out … and you haven't even asked her if you two are together!? Flash … you are one funny man …" Speedy joked at him.
"It never came up before!" Kid Flash defended.
"Because you have to bring it up!" Robin shot back.
"Oh right … and you brought up the same thing with Star haven't you …"
Robin stayed silent.
"What do you two do together anyway?" Beast Boy had to ask. He was still somewhat stunned that Kid Flash was dating an ex-villain they had faced so many times before.
"You mean at home or when we go out?"
"At home …" Beast Boy answered.
"She sleeps in late … so usually I make lunch for her before going out on patrol. Doesn't take long, but when I'm back she's usually awake. Uh … we watch movies, we talk about stuff …"
"What stuff?" Cyborg interrupted.
"… well … kinda like Beast Boy and Raven … we talk about where she's from, why she became a villain … about her past mostly … and she likes to hear about mine also …" Kid Flash stated, still reminiscing about her.
"Where is she anyway?"
Kid Flash turned to Aqualad who awaited his answer. He stared in puzzlement, thinking about it before answering.
"She's with the girls … after all that Brotherhood of Evil stuff that went down, I introduced her to Starfire … man that girl gets so hyper when she meets new friends …" Kid Flash jokingly said. He looked over to Robin who just shrugged his shoulders, that was Starfire. "So I think Starfire wanted to get her a new wardrobe instead of all the gothic black and pink she usually wears …"
Kid Flash smiled at the thought of what Starfire might put together for her.
"… so … anything going on that we should know …?" Speedy slyly asked.
Kid Flash coughed, his thoughts ruined by Speedy's comment.
"No … like Cy said, she's not like that …" He shot back, irritably.
"Oh come on KF … you two haven't done anything … I mean you two live together yet nothing is going on?!" Speedy stated in disbelief.
"Man Speedy, she's not like that … sure we've kissed before and sleep in the same bed, but that's as far as it goes …" Kid Flash replied back.
"Kissed you say …" Speedy asked intrigued at the new information at hand.
Damn it, Kid Flash said in his head. Speedy always had a way to get information out of someone, even if the victim inadvertently said it.
"That's it … I swear." He had to say to get Speedy off his back.
"I think KF's right, I mean Jinx doesn't seem like that …" Robin said to defend KF.
"Yeah right … Mr. Don't Know How to Talk to Starfire …" Speedy kidded.
Robin shied away.
Kid Flash didn't like how Speedy wanted to know everyone's business when they hadn't heard about his. He wanted to challenge the narcissistic Titan, to see what he had to say.
"You talk a lot of shit Speedy … what have you done to back up all of it?"
Everyone stared at Kid Flash and turned their heads to Speedy. Kid Flash had called out the person who had instigated the whole conversation in the first place. Speedy smiled though. He had been awaiting his turn the whole time. He was cocky enough to let the others interrogate him for a change.
"Okay boys … I might as well give you all some advice in the process …"
Ooo
