Kaldur sat at the kitchen table, trying to think things over. His best friend took his crush from him, he failed his team as leader, there was a mole he couldn't find yet. He put his head in his hands, sighing heavily.
"Can't sleep?" A voice broke the silence. The atlantean looked up.
"Oh, Artemis, it's you."
"Yeah, why you up so late?' Artemis asked, glancing at the clock on the stove which read 3:30am.
"I am just thinking, go back to bed." Kaldur answered.
"Want to talk about it?"
"I suppose."
Kaldur began talking about Tula, Artemis nodded as she moved about the kitchen, pulling out a pot and some milk. Kaldur continued his rant as the archer put the pot on the stove and heated the milk. He switched to the failed mission, Artemis put the milk in two mugs and finally sat down.
"I failed the team then." Kaldur sighed, staring into the mug.
"You didn't Kaldur, you were just doing what you knew you should do," Artemis said, placing a hand on his, "And that Tula chick is stupid, only an idiot would turn you down."
"Thank you, Artemis." Kaldur smiled.
"I'm only stating facts." The girl smiled too.
"I am glad we had this talk, I think I will go to bed now." Kaldur finished his milk and got up from the table.
"Anytime Kal." Artemis replied, walking to her own room.
