Week 4, Day Two
Bee stared at the calender on the wall in the kitchen, sipping a kale smoothie.
She knew her exact day of conception. So now she was keeping tract of her pregnancy.
So far, so good. Been a little over a week since she's found out and it's still her biggest secret.
No symptoms but she's tried to change her lifestyle. She's done all the research she could and searched up every question she had. It's now whether she wants to just deal with her mistake, or actually wants to be a mother. She would think further on it but someone walked up behind her.
"I wanna go out tonight." Speedy whispered in her ear, snaking his arms around her waist.
She turned her head slightly to look at him. "And why is that, lover boy?"
"Because, I'm tired of being cooped up here. You've been all gloomy since last week, let's have fun."
Bumblebee sipped at her her smoothie and looked back at the wall, thinking.
"Where do you wanna go?" She finally asked.
He sighed in relief. "Anywhere."
"Wanna make it a team outing?" She moved his hands from around her waist and turned to face him, leaning on the wall. Then took a swig of kale.
The archer did not look pleased with her suggestion. "Why? I think Mas has a date and is bringing Menos along."
She raised an eyebrow looking over at the boys sitting on the couch playing video games.
"Mas!"
He and his brother turned to look at her.
"Si?"
Their leader stared at him. "You have a date?! And I didn't know?"
"You would know if you weren't always in your room." Speedy muttered. She chose to ignore him and continued staring at the twins.
The boy gave her a cocky grin. "Siiii."
"What's Menos gonna be doing?" She asked, her boyfriend pressing up against her as she conversed.
Menos spoke for himself. "She has an amiga. Ella es muy bonita." Mas shook is head in agreement.
"Dos hermosas chicas!"
Speedy grunted. "I can't understand anything they're saying."
"It's basic Spanish." Bee whispered, pushing him off her. She smiled at the boys. "Ooo,get it. But just know I'll lock y'all out if you're not home by 9:30."
They sighed. "Okay, mama."
Bee narrowed her eyes at them before turning to Speedy.
"Well they can't come, but what about Aqualad?"
The ginger looked uninterested. "What about him?"
"He doesn't have any plans."
Speedy shrugged. "He has the ocean."
Bee rolled her olive eyes. "He's coming."
"What?" He folded his arms and gave her an irritated look. "So you don't wanna be alone with me? I want to go on a date."
He was actually correct. No, she did not want to go anywhere with him on her own for a while. She wasn't ready for that.
"But I want to go out with more people. It's more fun that way."
Speedy waved his arms. "We can do that any other day, just not a Friday night!"
"C'mon!" She gripped his arm. "Do this for me. Tomorrow we can go to the carnival, just us."
He sighed before giving in. "Okay, Aqualad can come." He kissed her nose. "You're lucky I like you."
Week 4, Day 3
Speedy fucked up yesterday.
He chose to drive them out into the city and they just circled around until he hopped out and got them street food. Then they all went to theater where Bee thought he would redeem himself but instead he argued with an elderly woman for taking the last two of his favorite chocolate bar. So she ended the night. Told him to them home right away. When he doesn't want to do something he could be a jerk about it.
As soon as they came back to the tower, Bee went to her room and hasn't left since.
DING DING DING
She opened her eyes to flashing lights and sounding alarms. Early morning missions were always the worst but she had to go. It was her duty.
She hopped of bed and hurriedly put her suit on. It took her no time being that she was used to it now.
The others met her in the ops room, all tired.
"Disturbance downtown. Let's go."
Speedy whipped out his comb as the other boys exited.
"Stop that!" His girlfriend shunned, pointing him out.
It wasn't that long a flight for her, but she feels sick today. When she arrived at a scene, what she saw was depressing.
Some chubby creep in spandex shooting at people with ice pellets from a large bucket.
The man -who had to be about 35- turned, spotting her and the other titans staring at him. Some civilians with nothing better to do watched as this played out.
"Hello! I am Ice Man! Do not come closer."
He threw a couple chunks at Bee, irritating her. This will be the quickest take down they've ever had.
"Titans go." The leader directed weakly.
"Who wants to handle this douche?" Aqualad asked, not in the mood to tackle a sweaty man.
Bee pointed the twins to the bucket. They sped around him before grabbing his 'weapon'. Aqualad collected all the pellets, hitting hm with all of them.
"AHHH!" The maniac screeched, dramatically falling to his knees.
Smirking, Speedy shot a net onto him. Bumblebee walked over, kicking him before trying to lift him onto her shoulder. Tried. He was too heavy so they both fell, her male colleagues hurriedly came to help her up.
She glared at the creep with huge eyes for ruining her already crappy day. It seemed to be trickling on very slowly.
"I want a smoothie." Bumblebee grumbled, sending her location to the Steel City police using her communicator.
"What do we do with him?" Aqualad asked, holding the ranting man down through the neat. By the look on his face, he was grossed out.
The leader shrugged. "Let him babble. As soon as the cop show up we're leaving." Too bad the cops didn't show up soon. It had to have been a little over an hour of them sitting on the curb, bored and holding a crazed man before one cop car came.
"What seems to be the probl-"
Aqualad pushed the man into the cops arms, simply walking away after.
"I am the Ice Man! BEWARE OF THE ICE MAN! I AAAAAAAMMM THEEEEEE ICEEEEEE MAAAAAAAN!"
Bumblebee snapped her finger and pointed to the T-car. She was in a very foul mood and had no time to direct them to stop wandering. The sensed this and hurriedly followed her unspoken orders.
As they all piled up, Speedy turned to her.
"Whe-"
"I need breakfast. Take me to the smoothie place."
Mas frowned. "Quiero los panqueques!"
She glared at him, understanding him. "Well, deal with it. I want a smoothie and small yogurt with granola pieces all over and if you know what's best, you would not argue."
Aqualad nudged Mas warningly.
They drove along in complete silence. Her day had seemed to be looking up when they arrived at The Smoothie&Froyo Shoppe. But that soon ended when they walked in to a long line. People pressing against each other behind black lines, trying to get their daily boost the healthy way. She's never been here this early she didn't know this many people could possibly fit in here.
She sighed. "I don't wanna wait in line."
The archer lit up at that. He began pushing through the people waiting for their orders outside the lines and near the tables, creating a path to the bright green counters. People watched in awe, moving aside without barely any complaints.
"Teen Titans, coming through. Sorry, Teen Titans."
The others follow suit until they reach the counter.
The woman running the desk looked very surprised as she stared at Steel's very own heros. "Um, what may we do for you today?"
Speedy smiled as nicely as possible for him. "Soo.. we want to test your products... for mutations. May we get one low fat strawberry banana?"
Mas and Menos grinned. "Dos kiwi lime!"
Aqualad read the menu. "Green apple and a cup of diced pineapples."
"And a mango with the protein shot. Oh, and the yogurt. All large."
The woman nodded feverishly, giving the workers behind her order. "Quick! It's the Titans!"
Bumblebee smiled just a bit at Speedy, wiping it off as soon as he glimpsed at her. They stood in silence waiting the 7 minutes for all their orders to arrive.
"How much?" Aqualad asked, ready to get out the titan card.
The woman waved them off. "Free, you guys bring good business."
That made Bee pretty happy as she sipped at her smoothie. Even though they never give her a free order. Discounted, but never free. "Thanks!"
They made their way out, pushing through the crowd of people.
"This is good." The Atlantean muttered, hopping in the car.
Their driver, Speedy, placed his drink in the cup holder.
"Eh, it doesn't have a taste to me."
She wanted to say something, but didn't feel like talking to him. She didn't feel like saying anything actually. Nausea was finally hitting her. Just as her day began to look up.
And it wasn't easy. If she talked she might puke.
Reading and learning about symptoms wasn't the same thing as actually experiencing it.
