Gotham Academy, Dec 3
Random POV
"What?! When did she come here?!" Wally said as he walked into his science classroom with Dick Grayson. 5 rows from the front sat Artemis Crock reading from a large biology textbook. "She's been here since this morning. I know 'cuz i took a picture with her this morning." Robin said, waving to her with a sly grin. She waved back then pretending not to know that Wally was there, went back to reading. One of her friends asked her if she knew him, "'Cuz he is HOT." Artemis quickly turned away hiding her blush. Wally and Dick went to sit right behind Artemis and her friend who immediately started flirting with Wally. Wally looked at Artemis for help, but she was still reading. Each minute went by painfully slowly with both friends looking at the clock every 5 seconds. Finally the lunch bell rang and the students went to their lockers to chat. Artemis looked at Wally and quickly ran off towards the cafeteria. Wally looked at Dick and quickly ran off after her. Dick looked at his watch. "12:14" He looked around to see if anyone was watching, and jumped out the 3rd story window. This would have been a genius idea if he had remembered that he was in civies and changed to his uniform. He was expecting to glide down slowly, but instead hit the ground with a "Thud!" "Owww." he said, rubbing his head. He quickly recuperated and ran off towards the bat cave. Wally POV Where'd she go! I was right behind her a second ago... Ah, there she is. By the lunch lady with more hair than the biggest ball of yarn in... ( come on puns!) … my house... I slid into line next to her and despite the line of unhappy boys behind me, I grabbed a tray and lobbed the cafeteria slop onto it. "So... I didn't know that you went to this school... ummm... when did you get here?" I asked while I pulled her a chair. The chair came from where a high school jock used to be sitting. He was now sprawled on the floor rubbing his head. Artemis twirled her finger with her hair. "I got here about halfway through the school year, maybe 3 months ago?" She then took my head and pointed it in the other direction. I heard the sound of mushy stuff being sloshed together and turned to see Artemis with a totally clean plate sitting next to an overflowed plate of greens.
"Hahaha! High Metabolism saves the day!" I said as I quickly swallowed down my food (literally). Seconds later, all the food on my plate had gone away with no stomach pains or headaches. She looked away in disgust and then ran off towards her locker. I quickly caught up to her and grabbed her hand. I had been waiting for this moment for about a week, dreaming about it, eating about it, talking to myself about it, and this probably wasn't the best time, but I did it anyways. "Artemis." She looked at me in surprise. "I love y-wait a sec. I *Cough* I love you." I said after choking on my cafeteria slop. This was probably my best shot which meant that if she said no, then I'd lose her forever. Which wouldn't be good. "I do too." WAIT WHAT?! I waved my hand in front of her face. "Are you feeling alright? Any hallucinations? Are you delusional?!" "I do too. Do you want me to take it back?" Then she punched me in the ribs.
"N-n-no! I just was a little, surprised?" I stuttered. "So, um... Gotham Diner? At... um... 6:30?"
She placed a finger on my lips and i stopped. "6:30 it is. Don't be a chicken." And she raced off towards Algebra. Where I was supposed to go to too. Like, right now.
