October 11,2016- Gotham City

"I seriously see no reason in attending math class anymore." Jannet stated with an irritated look on her face. "Math just hates me."

Jaime had absolutely no idea how he'd ended up sitting in 'cliché' table. Well, befriending Jannet was easier that they thought it would, but it was kinda awkward too.

Meaning, how on earth can you let two weirdos from out of town to sit with you at lunch when one of them stares at with heart shaped eyes? Yup, Bart had taken his time realizing how pretty Jannet was, but when he did…

Even now, Jaime was not quite sure if she liked him also, or if she was just oblivious to the fact that Bart was head over heels for her.

Anyhow, they had ended up in a table with Jannet, her best friend Jean and a set of identical twins, Suzan and Garret. Despite how girly she looked and acted, Jean was the daughter and sister of marines and had her future laid out for her by them. So, she was probably trying to enjoy her years as a female sixteen year old before joining the military, which was understandable. The twins, sitting opposite of Jannet, both had blond hair and hazel eyes. Other than their appearance, these two were downright opposites. Suzan was rather bubbly and way too excitable and Garret was…well a statue that walked, to say the least.

Jaime had decided to sit next to him, since he didn't really like the idea of talking and Bart had- of course- sat next to Jannet.

"So, Jannet, what do your parents do for a living?" Bart asked, looking at her like Wally before him would. Jannet raised her eyebrow at the brunette.

"You two really haven't heard the orientation speech yet, have you?" She smiled.

"Orientation speech?" Asked Jaime with a grimace. Jean took off her headphones.

"It's more like a guide- y'know, who sits where and why. Like, this table is where the rich-but-couldn't-care-less sit, next to us are the geeky-but-cute and so on." She explained and took a cupcake out of her lunch bag.

"It's also about the teachers and classes in general!" Suzan exclaimed, leaning forward to look at Jaime, as her brother was blocking her.

"And about who does what and when. Everyone knows Jean will be in the marines so don't mess with her, Faye over there will try to become a pop star but we all know she'll be a crack addict with six kids and no job and so on…" Jannet finished with no real interest in the story.

"That's cruel." Bart said. Jannet shrugged and went back to her apple. "It's true though…"

After school, Jaime and Bart had gone back to the apartment tired as hell. Bart had finished both their homework with his supper speed (Duh!) and had both gone to sleep until sunset to spy on the girl. Jannet had no hobbies that required her out of the house, which made their job much more easier. She would just sit under a tree in the backyard and read a book, or be on the computer. Even more rarely she would play with her younger brother, but that was it.

"What was Aqualad thinking?" Bart complained quietly.

"I'm not fit for covert missions, much less for spying!" He continued and stretched his arms above his head.

"She's going to sleep." Jaime had ignored his friend's complaints, since he had a lot of his own.

"Should we get out of here? My legs are so sore already!" Bart jumped up on his branch.

"You go get some coffee, I'll stay here." Jaime dismissed his teammate, who zipped away in less than a second. The Hispanic boy sighed. He'd been suppressing the urge to talk back to the Scarab all day, and this spying thing was getting on his nerves, too.

"She does not know anything." The Scarab repeated for the 15th time that day.

"How are you so sure?" Jaime finally asked.

"It's obvious she's more interested in gossip than avoiding her fate."

Jaime shrugged his shoulders and looked back into Jannet's bedroom window. She was asleep alright. Maybe the Scarab was right and there was no point in monitoring her without her knowledge.

Pretty crappy, huh? I couldn't come up with something better, but figured it was time to update. Leave a review, favorite follow, whatever…

Next up: Jean's house blows up, Jannet freaks the fuck out.
