The dreams hadn't stopped. It had already been a week and the Robin hadn't left his mind. What's worse is that in almost every mission they were assigned...Robin was there. When he wanted to go take a shower; Robin was there -before Conner, don't think anything just yet- When he wanted to sleep; Robin was always there. Night after night Conner shifted and groaned in his sleep dreaming of the next wild fantasy his tormented subconscious could think of. Kaldur had told him when he had a reoccurring wet dream he should take a cold shower, he said the after effect I.E. The raging bulge in his pants that he woke up to now, would decrease after being hit hard with a blast of cold water.
During the week when Wally and Dick were at school or training with Batman and Flash Conner tried to sum up the courage to ask Superman for help, but to no avail Superman would avoid the question by saying he had to go off, and defeat some evil doer or had a work related affair, AKA go get some pie with Batman. Anger would set in again, disappointment, and longing. He had so much empathy for Superman, his almost father, but he had to deal with it like he always had. It wasn't until there last mission that Robin had finally confronted Superboy.
"Hey, what's up", Robin asked folding his arms over his chest, leaning on the door frame of Superboy's room. He was wearing his normal black shaded sunglasses. Black hoodie and washed out blue jeans. He held a curious air.
"Uh nothing I guess", Conner stiffened, he was in the middle of his work out regimen, sweating bullets mainly from the working out, but obviously Robin was a factor. He swiped a towel over his forehead to rid himself of the sweat running down his face. Small droplets of sweat stung his eyes. He sat on his bed gripping onto his towel for leverage. Just the sight of Robin got his heat rising and blood boiling. He took in the smell of Robin, the soft smell of sea salt...candy..? Flooded his room, "Why do you smell so sweet..?", Superboy questioned somewhat curious but mainly to avoid the question.
Robin stood off the banister of the door frame then lifted his arm to smell it, "I smell like...sweat and manliness",he mused.
Conner couldn't help but smile, no offense to Robin, but calling a 13-year old boy who was maybe a sixteenth of Conner's strength-not even a sixteenth- and has a father complex could hardly be classified as "manly", "Oh really?", Superboy side smirked teasingly.
"Yes! I do!",Robin replied with a childish huff, but then smiled once he saw the side smirk on Superboy's face, "Fine whatever, dinner's almost ready",Robin informed then walked off.
Blue eyes watched as Robin's body shifted at every step with his side smirk reformed into a goofy smile. He laid down then sighed still holding onto his towel in his hand. His heart was at a steady 'thump' as he reflected on what just happened 'That..was fine..see..' his goofy little grin didn't leave his face until maybe dinner.
-Dinner time-
And that goofy little smile DID leave his face at dinner time. He was sitting in what could possibly be the most questionable thing he'd ever seen, Spaghetti. On a white plate laid a pile of noodles sat oddly on it winding and twisting with a slop of marinara sauce, which in his opinion, looked like bloody guts. He really didn't want to upset M'gann, but he really didn't want to eat the concoction in front of him...it scared him.
The rest of the team was eating comfortably slurping down strings of noodles like nobody's business. The blood like sauce splattered on everyones lips-for Wally his whole face- Superboy didn't understand this, He also didn't understand Ice cream as well, but that's another story.
Robin looked up toward Superboy who was still looking down questionably at his plate of Italian goodness. A swift kick to Superboy's shin made him look up angrily like he was about to throw a fork through the person that kicked him's eye, but once he saw it was Robin he elicited a question-but still angry-look. Robin held up his fork then mouth 'Use this' Superboy picked up his fork with his fist 'now do this' Robin began spinning his fork through his spaghetti, Superboy did so ' then eat', Robin stuck the spindle of spaghetti in his mouth then began chewing. Superboy shook his head in refusal, he mouthed 'no'
Robin narrowed his eyes-not that anyone could see, but Conner knew, and kicked his shin again. Conner inwardly groaned then opened his mouth to allow access for the food. Chewing on the spaghetti he felt the slimy noodles slide down his throat then blinked. It was...good, and Robin could tell then smiled to himself.
Superboy had finished his plate clean, finding the mess of noodles appetizing. Robin was standing next to Kid Flash where they were doing dishes splashing each other with faucet water and lemon scented soap Artemis was yelling at Wally to keep it down and do his work while Conner was sitting next to Kaldur on the couch watching the world news 8 o'clock. M'gann was levitating next to the couch meditating or something.. whatever Aliens do.
"Any new weird dreams..", Kaldur asked not taking his eyes off the TV.
Conner nodded, "Yes, they've gotten worse", M'gann peaked one eye open.
"What happened this time?"
Conner fiddle with his thumbs then averted his eyes, "They've become..more arousing..", Conner admitted.
A sympathetic smile grew on Kaldur's face, "With Ro-"
"Yes", Conner cut in before Kaldur could say his name. His face was a soft tinge of pink.
Kaldur gave his friend a soft pat on the back then squeezed his friend's shoulder and got up, "Want some ice cream?"
"The frozen fermented cow milk...? No thank you" Conner refused then sunk lower into the couch.
Without notice Wally came flying onto the couch and onto Superboy's unsuspected lap, "Yo Supy wanna go out tonight!"
"Go where?", He furrowed his brow.
"Me and Robin we-"
"Robin and I", Conner corrected.
"Yeah whatever, Robin and I were gonna go out and go to a club in downtown.
"Aren't you two too young..?", he knew Wally was only 15 and Dick was only 13, still in middle school.
"Yeah well that's why YOU'RE coming~", Wally smiled.
"So you're using me.."
Robin walked to the couch then pulled Wally off of Conner's lap then onto the ground, "Don't bother him, if he doesn't' want to go don't force him"
Conner instinctively looked up at Dick, "I'l go", he really didn't want to, but at the same time Kaldur did tell him that it's good to socialize.
Both Dick and Wally smiled ear to ear, "Really?", they both exclaimed.
"Y-yuh", he reassured 'They really are best friends...'
Kid Flash nudged Superboy on the shoulder, "Meet us near M'gann's ship in ten minutes, be there or be square~!", Kid flash winked then sprinted off to his room, while Robin idly followed him.
Superboy shook off the stupid comment because there was no way he could actually be formed into a square unless it was by M'gann. He sauntered over to M'gann's space ship which was in it's dormant state, a small little pink blob that sat comfortably on the ground.
A girl with long blonde hair strewn across her left shoulder which was clothes by a green bikini strapped loose dress. Her grey eyes gleamed at the sight of Superboy, "Hey Superboy", Artemis chimed as she walked up to him from behind the Alien space slender body swayed back and forth with every step she made in her three inch black heels. Her lips were painted in a soft red shade of lipstick.
"Oh, you're coming too, Artemis?", he choked out. It wasn't like Conner hated Artemis or anything, he just didn't like her company. She would always make snarky comments about M'gann or 'subtly' hit on Superboy.
"Yeah, like the dress?", she questioned spinning around to show off the clingy dress then flashed a cute grin. Superboy just quietly nodded humoring the hormonal teenager. The two began their usual chat, Artemis would start out, "Don't I/ Doesn't it-look/looks nice?", and then Conner would silently nod and cut in with the occasional, "Oh really?", or "Is that so..?" The two were interrupted with Kid Flash, Robin, and M'gann walking into the room; M'gann was wearing a black halter top and a long blue skirt that held onto her green hips effortlessly. Her smile slowly faded as she saw Artemis stripping Conner with her wolfish grey eyes.
Wally and Dick were in casual clothing, but somehow Wally always managed to look like he could be in Jersey shore-aside from the ginger hair and lack of tan- both of them wore regular blue jeans; Wally's had tears in them though like Conner, but a lot more prominent. Robin wore a black shirt with the bat-call in the center, he loved to wear any batman novelty items when he had the chance no matter how dorky he looked, but to Conner he looked cute...No! Not Cute.. he meant good. As always his black shaded glasses fell on the bridge of his nose comfortably, and his generic little rich boy cut wasn't combed and brushed at all which gave him this small wave of cow licks, and small fringes that would stick up. He liked it. He had looked like that all day, Conner supposed it was just the saturday laziness that set in.
"Hey~!", M'gann smiled cutting in between Artemis and Superboy, "Ready?", she was talking to everyone but her tone was mainly directed to Conner. Wally but in between them, then put an arm around her shoulder, "You bet!", he flashed a toothy grin. She ignored his friendly hand then morphed her space ship into a light pink convertible.
"Are you serious?", Robin cut in, "A PINK car? Everyone will think we're gay!", M'gann gave him a side glare probably thinking, 'Pink is rad, shut up Robin'
Everyone took another glance at the car, "I..agree", Conner sided mumbling a weak rebuttal.
M'gann slapped her forehead, "Hello M'gann! Of course! Gah Sorry guys, I keep forgetting the difference between the difference between female and male preference", she did her mind telepathy thing and the color of the car to a smooth black. Robin's mouth hung open, he couldn't believe her reasoning what-so-ever.
"I'm driving!", Wally exclaimed jumping into the car.
"You're only fifteen", Superboy said pulling him out of the drivers seat then into the passengers', "that's illegal"
"I gotta permit!", Wally whined.
M'gann giggled then sat down into the driver's seat while Dick, Conner, and Artemis piled into the back waiting for the 'car' to buckle them up. M'gann pulled out of the Mountain then drove onto the road that led to the freeway near the city. Having the wind blow into their faces felt liberating and relaxing, loving the scent of candy and sea water blow by. During the car ride Robin's and Superboy's shoulders touched seven times, Conner would smile to himself at the comparison, but at sometimes he would blush once he felt the subtle body heat coming off of Robin.
