Smell
Waking up today was... interesting.
Wally was supposed to be sleeping in a, well, sleeping bag, but when I woke up he was on my bed holding me from behind. I have to admit, some part of me wanted to stay in that position for a long time, but then I thought of how awkward it would be for the both of us if we woke up like this. So, I got out of bed, took a shower, and brushed my teeth, all while watching him from the mirror. Sure he sleeps a lot, but now he was just holding my pillow strangely...Weird...
Anyway, I left my room and went to the kitchen. Lo and behold, M'gann was there as usual. What she was making actually smelled kind of nice...
"What's up, Megan? Trying something new?" I ask smoothly. She smiles and continues doing what she's doing.
"Hello, Robin! I'm trying this new recipe; I believe it is called a, 'French Crepe'? According to this website, they're like thin pancakes. Do you mind if I talk mentally to you? It's still kind of confusing to talk while cooking at the same time for me," she asks. I kind of notice what she meant, since she practically stopped moving when I got here.
"Sure, I know what you mean," I say, sitting on one of the bar stools around the island. She smiles yet again.
Great! Would you like to help me make them? she asks. I read somewhere that humans like to cook on rainy days.
Sure, why not? And most humans do like cooking on rainy days, since you can't really do much outside, I say, getting off the barstool. So while we're making crepes, with chocolate fudge filling, we just keep talking about stuff like school, the last mission, what we say on T.V. last night, etc. And then she brings up relationships.
So, how do human females react when someone wants to take them out on a date? she asks, stopping what she's doing and looking at me. I sigh and resume cooking.
Well, if they want to go on the date, then they say yes. If they don't well, they say no, thank you, or if the guy won't stop bothering about it, set him straight and tell them why they don't want to go out with the guy gently. Did someone try to ask you out? I reply. She just stands there looking pretty shy and embarrassed.
No, I was just confused is all. It's just that, a friend of mine at school was asked out, but she said no laughing at the guy. I was wondering if that was normal behavior, to laugh at someone to say no, she said. I was shocked.
Really? She laughed at him? Wow, that's harsh. Well, M'gann, I hope you never do that. That was just cruel, I said, instantly feeling sorry for the guy. I'm guessing she felt the same way.
Don't worry, he's O.K., I checked how he was doing after she left, since I saw the whole thing. He was fine, saying that he was usually rejected like that, but I could feel the sadness flowing from him... Hey, we're almost done! she said happily. We were almost done. Huh, time really does fly...
"Hi Wally! Would you like some crepes? Robin and I made them," She said. Wally just came in, probably looking for food, and he sat down at the island. He smelled the air pretty much like a dog, and smiled.
"Of course, beautiful. Anything you make is obviously go- Wait, did you say Robin helped you?" he said. I swear he had an evil glint in his eyes. "The BOY WONDER can cook? If I had known, he would be cooking since forever for me," he says, looking like he was a king. He's probably feeling like it, I thought, still fully aware that I have a mental connection with Megan. M'gann giggles at that, but Wally probably thinks it was because of what he said. He looks triumphant, and grabs a fork, knife, and plate in speedster fashion.
"Yeah, like Batman would let you do that," I say, handing him 5 crepes. He finished his third when he decided to talk again.
"So, where were you this morning? I woke up alone, and that is not nice if you want to be a good boyfriend," he says grinning, and before I could say anything, M'gann decides to speak.
"Ohh, you two are together? Hello, Megan, I should have seen the signs," she said, hitting her head and actually looking happy at that. So I decide to set her straight.
"WOAHH, WE ARE NOT TOGETHER! He's just saying that because he was staying in my room last night," I say, putting my arms up defensively. She kind of deflated, and Wally looked really sad at that. Then I think. "What do you mean by 'should have read the-'"
"Anyways, is that Conner calling me? Better go see what's wrong," I will tell you later, Robin, she said, and went to "see what was wrong". As if, I know a lie when I hear one.
"So, you like those crepes? Chocolate inside," I said, grabbing one. He grinned, and leaned back before grabbing a few more.
"Sure, their AMAZING, why wouldn't I like them? Besides, you made them," he said standing up with his plate and moving towards the couch. I followed him.
"I had help. And besides-," I stop checking the hallway to make sure that nobody was here, "-when Alfred lets me, I totally make my own food."
"Cool, Aunt Iris never lets me help," he said, shrugging and eating. I just shake my head.
"That's because you blew up the oven last time," I say, sitting down and grinning.
He just groans. "That was ONE TIME! Get over it! Anyways, before you so rudely interrupted me, I was just thinking," he finished crossing his arms.
I fake being in shock. "Wallace West was thinking? DUCK AND COVER, THE WORLD IS GOING TO EXPLODE!" I say, jumping to the floor and laughing.
Wally was not amused. "Yeah, yeah, 'cause everyone gets your logic on my brain," he said pointing up to his head. I sit back on the couch.
"You know, I think you just do that to get me to laugh. Admit it, you like hearing me," I say triumphantly, leaning back on him. I've gotten used to his touching me unnecessarily.
"Or, I do it to get you close because you smell nice," he said, cuddling up to me, wrapping his arms around me, and smelling my hair. It takes all my strength to not... moan, in pleasure. I actually feel comfortable, when all of a sudden, his cell phone starts ringing.
"Darn, it's my AUNT! When did she learn to text anyways? Gotta go birdie!" he said, unwrapping himself and stealing a crepe (or ten, couldn't see) on the way out.
It took me a while but I realized...
"DON'T CALL ME BIRDIE!"
I think I'm crushing on my best friend... DARN IT!
A/n: didn't think of any other foods... I hate when chapters don't go the way you want them to go... though I love reviews, and it would be nice if I get any... maybe the promise of a kiss scene would help... =)
