Chapter 2
Wally's POV
"So what do you think about Artemis?" I scoffed. Oh please, I can already tell how she's going to be, "she's just another stuck up teenage girl. There's nothing much to it." Dick won't stop asking what I thought about Artemis, and it's like he's expecting a different answer each time. Geez that kid needs to chill.
I glanced down at my schedule and groaned, "Man, I have first period with Mr. Kent." Dick shot a sideways glance, "so do I, but I don't understand why this is a bad thing. You love Kent." "I do, but Conner has first period with Mr. Kent." Dick's eyes widened with realization. About a year ago, Mr. Clark Kent, football and wrestling coach, as well as the world history teacher, found out that he had a son. It was an odd situation, and it's been retold so many times that no one knows the real story anymore. "Welp," Dick began popping the p, "this might be just a little awkward."
When we walked into class, Zatanna and Artemis were already sitting at a couple desks in the middle of the classroom. Dick sat down behind Zatanna and to the left of Barbara Gordon, the commissioner's daughter and one of our close friends. Reluctantly, I sat behind Artemis not wanting to sit away from my friends. "Hey Baywatch," Artemis said turning around looking at me with a small smirk, "love the costume." Confused, I looked down and realized what had happened. When I went to my locker, I grabbed my sweatshirt out of my bag and put it on not realizing that it was the sweatshirt my Uncle Barry gave me. It was a blown up picture of him winning his gold medal in the Olympics. I sighed, only he would do this. Quickly, I took it off and shoved it back in my bag. Never making that mistake again. Artemis was laughing her head off. "Very funny blondie. Don't you think you enjoyed that a little too much?" Artemis wiped a tear away, "I think I enjoyed it an appropriate amount." I groaned. I've only known this girl for less than 30 minutes, and she's already on my nerves.
"Kal!" Dick jumped out of his seat and ran up to our good friend Kaldur Ahm. "Greetings friends. Did you enjoy your summer break? Oh, Artemis. How nice to see you here." Artemis smiled as she stood up to give her friend a hug, "long time no see." "Um," I began, "how do you two know each other?" Kaldur piped up, "we met this summer at a sports camp in Star City. Artemis lives true to her name. She is a remarkable archer. She is on par with Roy." I widened my eyes in disbelief, "no way. Roy's an amazing archer. No way she's better than him." Artemis crossed her arms as she marched up to me, "well I am. And I should know," she said turning away from me to face the others, "we're both mentored by Oliver Queen."
Dick's face lightened up, "no way! So you're Queen's new apprentice he's been bragging about. What a coincidence!" Everyone chuckled at the boy's overdramatic tendencies. Suddenly, there was a chill in the room. We all whipped around to face the door, and what we saw was not the ideal scenario. Conner Kent was face to face with his father. The room went dead silent, "good morning sir." Our heads followed Conner as he went to the back corner of the classroom. Mr. Kent turned his head back to where his son once was, but was only met by the ever so peppy Megan Morse, "good morning Mr. Kent!"
"Hello Meg-a-licious!" I said sliding in front of Megan. She was the prettiest girl at Gotham Academy by far. Her auburn hair was always pristinely styled to frame her pale skin and cute freckles. Someday she'll pay attention to me. She gave a shy smile before setting her stuff down next to Conner's desk. I'll be honest. She and Conner kind of have an unspoken thing. They both came to Gotham Academy last year and made a bit of a connection. Usually Megan is a front row kind of girl, but if Conner's in that class, she goes straight to the back.
I turned back to my friends to see a small smirk on Artemis' face, "what are you looking at?" She laughed, "I'm looking at a guy who basically just got rejected real hard." I groaned again. How am I supposed to deal with her? It doesn't help that she's friends with my friends. Ugh. Why can't I stand this girl?
