Who's this on your phone?
Barbara brushed her smooth red hair into a pony tail. Dick tried helping her with it but only managed to tangle his hands in her poor locks. He was visiting their dorm (even though he practically lived with her) again. Artemis hadn't shown up after the whole fighting show down /pizza party, not that Barbara knew that.
"So just stay here until Artemis comes, if Bette passes you do your impersonation of a woman, and please stop embarrassing my roommate." Barbara said looking at him dig through the room like he was discovering new treasures and torment tools. Barbara reached for her gym bag and tied the loose straps on her sweat pants.
"Babs, that's like telling a dog not to bark, you know I tease her to stay sane."
"Whatever, I'm not cleaning your blood." With that she slammed the door shut.
Dick started throwing his feet on Barbara's neat bed when he heard knocking. He made gurgling noises to start impersonating Artemis until he heard a male voice.
He hurried to the door only to find Wally with his fist half raised.
"Bro, what?" Wally said surprised.
"I should be asking the questions here!"
"I work with Barbara in advanced chemistry."
"Oh."
"What are you doing here?"
"I cover for Arty."
"Oh."
Wally rubbed the back of his neck and awkwardly made his way into the room. Dick jumped him to piggy back ride inside the room and Wally had to balance his body so the excited mess of limbs wouldn't fall.
The ginger used his hand to reach for his phone and check the time. He needed to call Babs and by the looks of it she had just left because Dick was fairly calm and everyone knew he got crazy when left alone too long. Richard craned his neck to look at the phone screen. Then he released the sound of a dying animal and fell on the floor turtle style.
"Wally, who's that on your screen?" Wally looked confused and then re checked his phone to confirm why his friend was acting so dramatic.
"Um, I can explain."
"There is nothing to explain!"
"Please listen there is a logical reason."
"No! I can't even look at you right now."
"Oh my God you don't even know…"
"That man is not me! I cannot forgive you"
"Kyle is just a friend…my roommate… we were in a competition, it just happened"
"He has a name! The guy who lives with you now!" Dick choked down a sob. "Just when it couldn't get worse."
Wally gasped; his eyes had a hurtful expression.
"Did you solve… Calculus with him?" Dick barely whispered looking directly at Wally's eyes.
Wally opened his mouth, looked away then bit his lip guiltily. Dick let out a pained gasp. "I can't believe you!" He yelled pushing Wally away. "Oh. Oh my Newton. I need to be alone right now."
"Please! Dick I'm so sorry." Wally begged grabbing Dick's wrists to stop him from standing but it only made him wail louder until they were tumbling through the floor.
Artemis chose that inappropriate moment to enter the room.
Dick was pinned down on the floor by Wally who was trying not to cry on the raven haired boy. She was smart enough to flee. Not before teasing them until their red faces were good enough to shine for the camera. Karma is a bitch indeed.

She's lying naked, in a tiny bed, with her legs draped around the shady bad boy that bought her a beer at the pizza place. Artemis remembered him well, he was an old partner in crime she absolutely didn't mean to hook up with. Artemis tried moving her legs to pick up the little respect she had and leave before he woke up. She carefully slipped her arm from beneath a pillow, inching her other arm away from the body beside her. She inspected his back only to see angry red scratches on it, painfully aware she was to blame for that.
Just as she was throwing half her body away from the bed without disturbing her partner Dick's annoying ringtone broke the silence.
Artemis winced and gave up on escaping. God that kid had the worst timing. Now she would have to confront the awkward morning routine with the guy. Not before killing Dick though.
The blonde tapped the floor in the search of her phone. She sadly observed her ripped bra and panties beneath the bed. Jason Todd was going to buy her underwear now.
Finally she found the phone in one of her pockets and answered only to have a very feminine squeal blast her ears.
"Arty! Honey where are you? We were so worried about you, why didn't you come back to the apartment!"
On the background she could hear Barbara face palming.
"Dick Grayson I swear I am four seconds away of ripping out your vocal cords."
She heard his rowdy laugh.
"Aww, so who was the guy? I know you're crawling away from his bed now so don't even bother." Dick said nonchalantly, he was used to Artemis's sexcapades that never worked out and were mere stress relief/pent up frustration tools. How did he find out the first time? Artemis learned not to ask questions she doesn't want to hear answers from.
"None of your freaking business now give the phone to Barbara!"
After some fumbling and something like cloth moving she heard Barbara's voice.
"Artemis you know I cover for you any day but today I have gymnastics competition. You, get here ASAP."
Artemis sighed wrinkling her forehead. "Sure, give me five."
"Hey, I know you usually don't do stupid stuff so you will tell me everything when I finish this."
Artemis smiled to herself, because she couldn't begin to tell herself how she would start explaining what happened to Babs. "Not like I have a choice." She said.
"Damn right you don't." Babs giggled through the other side. After pressing the end call button she felt hot air near her neck. Jason started nuzzling her until she couldn't resist anymore and turned around pushing him by the shoulders to put some space between them before her cheeks caught fire.
"I'm leaving now."
He squinted, rubbing his dark blue eyes. The sheets started to slip past his hips and Artemis had a hard time trying to divert her gaze from going south.
"Jade says you're needed again, something about not disappointing daddy. I was supposed to pass the message." His voice was deep and gruff from sleep. Damn his sexy boy voice. Artemis stopped her gray gaze on his face.
She looked at the tiny scar near his lower lip trying to erase hurtful memories by brushing her thumb through it. She gave that one to him three years ago while training with the group. Her fingers reached for the white blob of white growing on his lightless brown hair. He had changed a lot now that she noticed.
"You did more than pass a message Jay bird." He smiled back at her with the same sad eyes he gave her the day she left the group.
"So why is my step bro your background?" Jason said snatching the phone she had at her lap to point a photo where Dick Grayson was manhandling her into a half hug, her face that of a very confused human being.
"That was back in school and Dick is a troll. That's all I can say." Artemis said holding up laughter as she remembered her time at that preppy school for rich noobs.
Jason frowned, and then yawned calmly. Artemis thought that conversation had gone pretty good, until he grabbed her chin to smash his lips against hers. His mouth pushed into hers so forcefully she moaned and had to push him back to get air in her lungs.
"You have a new piercing?" She added weakly after a long pause.
"Didn't you feel it last night?" Jason said smugly, reading right through her nervousness. He started eyeing her proudly. Her body barely covered in sheets and their clothes strewn over every place it could hang, some red marks near her hip.
Artemis felt her cheeks flush when his eyes inspected the room. "Jason, we will talk later but right now I have to go" She strained her voice when she said have to rather than need to. He got the feeling though.
He stopped to admire her face getting closer to her this time slowly until she felt his hard chin on her shoulder moving up and down not wanting to verbalize his 'okay'. His hands were shaking around her waist until she secured them tightly pressing against his chest.
"Will I see you again?" He asked her.
"You found me right?"
"You let me."
Artemis's words faltered so she let him hug her and whisper secrets into her skin. He deserved to do whatever he wanted anyway. If she felt guilty about anything it was him.
That's why when he pushed her back on the white bed covers and snapped a selfie she didn't mind. She even humored him by putting it as her new background.
