JacklyinKarst 's idea of Robin stalking Artemis on a date... yeah! I'll get back to the confusing-ness i left you all hanging on in the next chapter, i promise. But i thought this would be really fun to try, and i dont know how good i did, so i might try again. IDK! BUT! it was fun, and i hope you like it! Also, I'm really sad right now cause my iPod crashed and all of my stories were on there... so bye bye forever. :( UGH! but i sent all the good ones to my email! YES! lol Um... i should prolly let you read now! But i still have stuff to say, sorry! :) i have a few things typed up that i'm wondering if anyone would actually read them if i posted them? They've got Jason and Dami... and of course DICK! (lol well, duh!) and umm some of them are pretty serious and some others are like socks... strangling a certian damian wayne... in his sleep? Yeah...

Anywho! Read, enjoy (or not... i'd rather you did but i can't force you!) AND REVIEW! YES! THAT IS ALL!

Bruce's POV

"Bruce, I'm bored."

Dick is flopped over the couch his feet up on the back, head dangling over the edge. He stares at me upside down pouting a little.

"Go work out."

He crinkles his nose at my suggestion.

"What are your friends up to?"

"I don't know. Wally's going out on a date-"

His words are lost as a smile coats his face. He pulls himself up by his feet, tumbling head over heels in a flip off the couch. The sound of his footsteps is almost nonexistent and he runs toward the door. He sits down on the floor to pull on his shoes, a mischievous smile plastered on his face.

"Where are you going?"

"Training mission. Is that okay?" His head stays down focused on his shoes. His not really thinking about what he just said or how I am going to answer him, already knowing I'll let him go.

"Just be careful."

"Don't worry. I'll be back before you know it! Well, actually I'll probably go to the cave. I'll call when I get there."

"I'll be out, so just make sure Alfred knows where you are."

He nods before darting out the door. His jacket flaps in the wind, showing off the eskrima sticks strapped to his back. Always prepared.

I couldn't be more proud.

Wally's POV

The evening is going perfectly. I arrive fashionably late to Artemis' house, checking my hair in the window before I knock on the door. Robin would be proud of the wind-blown effect I chose. When I knock on the door, Artemis' mom opens it. We sit on the couch to talk for a while, and despite what Artemis says, her mom is really cool. Artemis came down a few minutes later frustrated and flustered. She has a pile of clothes in her arms, which she quickly shoves behind her back when she sees me. She tries to straighten up her hair while I take inventory of her outfit. Dark flare leg jeans with fresh white tennis shoes. A deep purple sweatshirt. Beautiful as always. She mutters something about make-up and starts to go back upstairs.

"Don't worry about it Arte, you're perfect."

She comes back into view slowly. She sticks her tongue out at me and runs back up.

"ARTEMIS!" I yell at her and all I get in response is laughter. I roll my eyes and her mother's soft laugh vaguely matches Artemis'. minutes later Artemis appears again with lightly done make-up.

"I'm ready now." She pulls me up from the couch and drags me out the door. I love how her fingers fit perfectly into mine as we walk down the brightly lit street.

Dick's POV

"Late as always, Wally." I mutter to myself absentmindedly stirring my ice water with a straw. I sit outside a small café in Gotham City, the one Wally told me he was taking Arte to tonight. I bought a beanie cap on the way over, and a pair of sunglasses I would never wear. A tight- fitting black leather jacket covers my utility belt, and a dark pair of skinny jeans. I watch the crowed streets sipping on my water. The small salad I order isn't the greatest, but I didn't really plan on eating it anyway. They should be here soon, they're running late, even by Wally's standards. They come about half an hour after I expected them to. I can't help but smirk as they walk inside with out a second glance at me.

Tonight will be perfect.

Wally's POV

I opened the door, bowing to Artemis like a butler. She scoffs at me as we take our seats at the table closest to the window. We giggle over the menu, just happy to be together somewhere other than on a mission, or with the rest of the team. When a waitress comes over we order the biggest malt, with two straws, and a huge piece of chocolate cake. Most of which will be eaten by me. Artemis is really pretty tonight, but something is… off.

"Can you let your hair down?"

She stops mid-laugh, "What?"

"like this." I feel my cheeks tinge as I run my fingers through her fine blonde hair undoing the holder in the back. Her hair tumbles down, falling gracefully past her shoulders.

"There. Now everything is perfect."

Her cheeks turn bright red.

Yup, perfect.

Dick's POV

I watch Artemis and Wally constantly. They laugh so much, it's almost unnatural. They really seem to be relaxed and off guard. A night of complete joy. I guess what they will order before it comes to them. I don't even need to lip-read to know what it is. A malt, probably chocolate. And the biggest piece of chocolate cake they can legally get. My lips crack in a smile as my guess comes true. Always predictable, those two. Or so I thought until Wally tentatively lifts his hand to let Artemis' hair down. I feel blood rising in my cheeks. I'm not jealous, am I? Maybe a little bit, sure, but also protective. Of both of them. I mean They're like my family. Call me protective little brother but I didn't like it. In a way I was proud of Wally, and happy for Artemis, but mad at them at the same time. I didn't want to see either of them hurt. I was torn between the two of my friends and the two of my opinions, and I didn't like it. Artemis kept her hair down throughout the entire date, which was way to long for my liking. Somehow I had the nerve to finish my salad. I head inside to pay just as Wally stands up. I "accidentally" bump into him as he goes to help Artemis up.

"Hey-!"

"S'cus me. I got eyes like a bat." I growl in my best Batman voice smirking as Wally looks at me like I'm crazy.

"No problem bro." I lower my sunglasses and wink at him before I shuffle out the door, Wally's laughter following me as I melt into the ever-changing crowd.

Wally's POV

I feel someone slam into my arm.

"Hey-!"

"S'cus me. I got eyes like a bat." A deep gravely voice replies to me.

"No problem bro." The kids voice is incredible forced, like it doesn't want to be that low, and it's normally much higher and sweeter.

The dark tinted sunglasses come down, showing off two bright blue eyes. He winks at me before pushing up his glasses and rushing out the door into the busy street. I can't help but laugh. That jerk. I give Artemis my hand pulling her up.

"What's so funny?"

"Did you feel like we were being watched?"

"No, why?"

A fresh batch of laughter comes over me.

"I guess he succeeded then."

She raises her eyebrow at me, but doesn't say anything.

Tonight was perfect, absolutely perfect.
