It hurt.

Nightwing knew that now.

The fact that he wanted to know his girlfriends first kiss, because he knew he wasn't.

"Lydia," he started, "who was your first kiss?"

"Some guy, named Sam, or something. It wasn't anything to write home about," Lydia shrugged.

They were all in the common area, and I mean everyone. The entire team was there, supposedly having team bonding.

"You have to tell us now," Astrid probed.

"Fine," Lydia started, "we were on a school trip..."

~ FLASHBACK ~
"Sam and Lydia," a 14 year old Lydia sighed as she heard her partners name read out.

Sam was annoying, to say the least. He wouldn't stop bugging her. It had gotten worse, these past weeks, and it was probable he had bribed the teacher to get them to be partners.

It was also probable her teacher had taken the bribe.

"So, shall we go over there?" Sam asked her. They were studying the life cycle, something they learned ages ago but apparently needed to go over.

They were to catch as much as possible, take photos, write what species they were and what stage in the life cycle.

"Fine," Lydia sighed. Why couldn't she be ill today?

A couple of minutes later, Sam tipped something into the bucket.

"A frog," Sam said, as Lydia put her head next to his to get a better look.

"A toad," she corrected, before his lips crashed onto hers.

~ FLASHBACK OVER ~

"And then?" Batgirl looked up from her magazine.

"I punched him, and pushed him into the pond. He dragged my in after, and tried to kiss me again."

"I sense more," Astrid grinned.

"I put a, well, something, into his mouth. I feel sorry for the something," Lydia groaned slightly, before smiling again.

"Well your first kiss was... interesting," Cassie raised an eyebrow.

"What about you, Anna?" Lydia asked.

"Ur, um, urm, I already told you mine," Anna stuttered.

"Wait till you hear it," Astrid smiled knowingly.

"It was with a guy named Garfield," she whispered.

"Was he ginger?" Nightwing asked, as Connor looked up.

"No. His hair was dyed blue," Anna shook her head, "it was..."

~ FLASHBACK ~
Anna loved her friends, she really did. But dragging her to a concert for a band she hated? Not cool.
Either way, Anna left to go to the bathroom, but along the way, a guy with blue hair slammed her against the wall of the snack bar.

"Hi, I'm Garfield," she could smell the alcohol on his breath. After he led her, she slapped him.

"Did you just kiss my boyfriend?" A girl asked, bottle of beer in hand. She was wearing tiny shorts and something that looked to be a little more revealing than a bra.

Anna rolled her eyes, "he kissed me," she snarled, wiping her mouth.

"Go," the girl said dangerously.

"With pleasure," Anna growled, walking away.

~ FLASHBACK OVER ~

"You gotta be kidding me," Quanta deadpanned, and Anna blushed.

"Completely out of character, right?" Astrid smirked, placing her bookmark into her book.

"Yeah. What was your first kiss, Astrid?" Jaime asked.

"I don't exactly remember it, but you guys do," the team waited in silence.

"Mistletoe. Christmas. Robin. Ring any bells?" Astrid sighed.

"Your first kiss... was with me?" Robin choked out, and Astrid blushed.
"Me too,"he grinned, kissing her temple, and she smiled.

"How did you girls meet?" Gar asked from the floor.

Astrid smiled fondly at the memory.

~ FLASHBACK ~

"Hi! I'm Bella Green, your shadow," An 11 year old Bella, as hyperactive as always, stuck her hand out to new girl, Astrid.

"Shadow? Oh, I'm Astrid," Astrid shook the girls hand.

"I help you send the school, be your friend etcetera until you settle in," Bella smiled, "this way."

"Do you come here on scholarship or not?" Astrid asked, hurrying to keep up with the speedy girl.

"Yes, sports scholar. What about you?" Bella knew enough to pretend to be sane until she got closer to the brunette.

"English Literature," Astrid nodded.

"Great! So, this is the library..." that day Astrid and Bella became good friends, and therefore each met the others sister.

~ FLASHBACK OVER ~

"So that's how you four met, what about Grace and Quanta?" M'Gann asked.

~ FLASHBACK ~
Grace looked around her at the new school she was joining, until she spotted a blond girl about her age, seemingly new as well.

"Hi, I'm Grace," said girl introduced herself.

"Quanta," the blond smiled. "Are you new too?"

"Yep, going into grade 7," Grace nodded.

"Really? Me too!" They were interrupted by two girls their age walking up to them.

"Quanta Cory and Grace Cook?" They asked.

"Yes," the new students said simoultainiously.

"Great. I'm Astrid, and this is Bella. I come here on an English Lit scholarship, and Bella on a sports. We're your shadows," Astrid and Bella grinned.

"I'm Quanta," said girl smiled, "textiles scholarship."

"Grace, I'm got geographical," all four smiled.

~ FLASHBACK OVER ~

"Do Lydia and Anna have scholarships too?" Karen asked.

"I have history and Anna has religious studies," Lydia nodded.

"Well all in all, that was great team bonding," Nightwing smiled, cladding his hands together. The girls shared a smile.

They missed the old days.

But who didn't?
