Diana was exhausted. She stepped out of the shower and began drying off. Who does he think he is? This has become so complicated so quickly. Oh Shayera. I am pretty sure you are going to break my heart. But what can I do? Diana sighed while she dried her hair. I should rest. Maybe things will be clearer in the morning. Or not. Maybe I will just spend another day thinking about her. Her lips. Her eyes. Her beautiful red hair. Her lips. Diana giggled a little. Gods be praised for Shayera's lips. And her hands, and her legs, and her smile. And her courage, tenacity, and that damn Thanagarian stubborness. That woman can be so infuriating! I am in love, and I asked her for time. All I really want is time with her. That may be all I get. Some time. Diana walked over to her dresser and picked up the comm link. She stared at it for several moments, and then put it back down. Sighing, she slipped into some clothes and left her room.

Better to talk to her in person. She made her way to Shayera's quarters. She stood in front of the door and stared at it. Just knock, and then what? Diana lifted her hand and then dropped it to her side.

"I like you in black. Of course you look good in everything, but black suits you."

Diana smiled at the familiar voice and turned around.

"Thank you." came the soft reply.

"Do you want to come in and talk?"

"I do, but I don't know if I should."

"I see."

"I can't sleep. You see there's this woman who won't leave my thoughts alone."

"Really?"

Diana nodded. "But I am not sure what to do."

"Sounds like a problem."

"It is. She confuses me."

Shayera took a step forward. "Why?"

"Because she looks at me with the most amazing eyes, and I can't think of anything else. I know that I love her, and would tear Olympus down if she needed me to. To my last breath I would fight for her."

"Diana,"

"But I am not sure that she feels the same way. And it scares me to think I'm in a fight I can't win."

"Diana, stop. Stop overthinking. Stop assuming you know everything about me. Because you have to trust me. If you don't then we can't go anywhere."

"I'm trying."

"Then try harder. Because Diana I love you, and knowing what you know about Thanagarians, we do everything whole heartedly."

"You sure you love me?"

"Would you like me to scream it thoughout the entire Watch Tower?"

Diana laughed. "What if I said yes?"

Shayera closed the distance and lightly kissed Diana's lips. "Well then, I will do just that. Tomorrow. But tonight I want you to do something for me."

"Anything."

"Come inside. Kiss me. Tell me how wonderful we are going to be together. Then show me."

Diana blushed. "Is that all?"

"No. Then I want you to hold me. Tell me again that you love me. And I want you to stay. Through the night, morning, afternoon, and again through the night. Stay."

"I can do that."

"Good, because you really weren't going to get a vote otherwise."

The two women laughed and went inside.


The next morning the women got up and went down to the cafeteria. After grabbing some food they sat down at a table together. The moment their butts hit their chairs, the Flash joined them.

"Ladies, may I?"

"Of course Wally." came the reply from both.

"Wally, I need a favor..." Shayera smiled.

"Sh-Shure." The Flash replied with a mouthful.

"Diana and I don't wish to keep our relationship secret anymore."

"Awesome!"

"So I need to know how fast you really are."

"I don't get it."

"Diana thinks that you could tell everyone in the room about us in about 30 seconds. I said no way. I think you are faster than that."

The Flash grinned and sped out of his chair making the rounds around the room. When he returned to his seat all eyes were staring at the two women.

"12 seconds Flash. I am impressed." Shayera giggled.

"Could have done it faster, but I just ate. I don't wanna get cramps."

Diana leaned over close to Shayera. "What was that about?"

Shayera smiled. "You wanted me to shout it to the entire Watch Tower right? So lean in a little closer."

Diana complied. Shayera cleared her throat. "Diana, I love you." And with the utterance she closed the distance between their faces and kissed her Amazon.

"That's what I-" Flash started, but Diana's hand swung behind her closing over Wally's mouth. The kiss was brief but served it's purpose. The cafeteria began buzzing.

"Wally?" Shayera asked.

"Mmmph..." was his response.

Diana dropped her hand. "Keep it clean Flash."

Shayera giggled. "Wally, how fast can you tell the entire Tower?"

The Flash stood up. "Be back in a jiffy." He sped off.

Diana looked into Shayera's eyes. "You realize that there is no turning back now?"

"Eat your breakfast."
