Druiza: I'm sorry for not up dating in forever. I have no exscuse and I apologize. I am going to try updating on a regular basis.
I have made some changes to the plot but don't worry I know where this is going. So here you go :)
Also this is unbeta-ed for the moment so I do apologize .;

We both stood there, frozen by what I had done. Barely a moment passed before Wally pulled me closer and was kissing me fiercely. I couldn't help but wrap my arms around his shoulders, too short to reach his neck, and kiss back. Wally wrapped his arms around my waist and flipped our positions so I was pressed up against the door.
He nipped and kissed his way down my neck, and it didn't have the save effect as before. That's when I realized it was doing nothing for me. We haven't actually had sex before but we've done everything in between, and I never realized that Wally never actually learned where my weak points were. Not that I'd give anything away, not after all that training with Batman. No, Wally either treated me like something to get off on or...or like a girl.
Suddenly angry with him I shoved him back, "Stop."
He stummbled back, hurt and anger on his face, "What?"
"This was a mistake," I whispered more to myself than him.
For once the speedster didn't say anything.
Taking a deep breath and steeling my emotions like I've learned to do; I continued.
"We are nothing more than teammates. We never dated and we were never friends," it was hard to continue and for once I was grateful for the mask. He couldn't see how much it hurt to say this, "and we'll behave as such. I put what use to be behind me, and I suggest you do the same."
I watched as so many emotions pass over Wally's face. Dispite the cowl he sill wore, I could read him easily. I always have been able too. He wore his heart on his sleeve, and just like Wally he resorted to anger when faced with strong emotions.
"Fine! It thats what you want then who am I to stop Boy Wonder?!" he pushed me out of the way and the mechanical door slid shut with a hiss behind him.
There was a dull ache in my chest, something I never felt before. I frowned in confusion. I don't know why it hurts but like everything else I lock it away. Taking a deep breath I head towards the exit.
"You leaving?"
The question was asked softly but I heared it clearly in the empty room. I stopped in my tracks and turned to face Super Boy. He had a frown on his face and looked like he was thinking about something. I knew he wasn't waiting for an answer, so I waited for him to continue.
"When is he coming?"
I shrugged, it's not like anyone knew what Batman would do or even when he would appear. Even if I was his side kick I barely knew.
Conner nodded as if he understood, and shifted awkwardly unsure of what to do now. Standing there watching him brought back that ache. I placed my hand on my chest confused as to why it hurt. I knew I wasn't hit in the chest during the last mission, and the bad guys in Gothem were, thankfully, just robbers and thugs. It was easy to take them down. I couldn't think of a single reason as to why.
Conner looked off to the side. A nervous habit of his, " I remember that when people break up they grieve afterwards and..." he trailed off.
I was too tied to figure out what he meant.
"Yeah?" I prompted him.
"And that they need someone to comfort them" he finished in a rush.
I smiled softy at him but I had no idea what he meant. I was never in a position to need such a thing. Only once before when Bruce first found me. It wasn't a pretty sight but that was a story for a diffrent time.
"So if you need me, uh, someone I'm here" he said trying to fill the silence.
There was a light blush on his usually stoic face. I found it oddly cute. In some sense he was like a new born pup, one that could kill I if you pissed him off.
I bit my lip in nervous habit I never grew out of. I held my arms out for a hug, like I'd seen on tv, and when I felt his strong arms wrap around me I couldn't help but sag into his them. I didn't realize just how tired I was. Working with the young justice and then watching over Gothem while Batman was gone exhausting. Especially since I still had to go to school during all of this and still had to keep up my appearences. Conner's arms tightened around me and he lifted me up. He carried me to the couch, and he set me in his lap and held me close. Like I was a teddy bear and I found I didn't mind. I snuggled into him and before I knew it I fell asleep.

Conner sat there holding Robin as he slept. He had no idea what to do now. The super boy never hugged someone much less held them. Deciding that nothing was coming to him and the stressof yesterday was catching up. He might as well try and get some sleep. He shifted so he was lying on the couch with the raven haired male's head tucked safely under his chin.
That's how he found them a couple hours later. He was angry at the fact someone was touching Robin in such a way. Glaring at the Krypyonian boy, he gently pried Robin away. The movement awoke the light sleeper and he grumbled.
"Batman?"
The man grunted and helped the sleepy bird up. Without saying anything he carried him as he left silently.

The next morning Robin woke up in a massive bed with pajamas on. Stretching he saw that the sun wasn't even up. Even being use to getting barely any sleep, the boy wonder was surprised he was up after the following week. Sitting up he got a clear look around. Something was off, this room was close replica but it wasn't his room. Carefully thinking over of how he got here and who might have taken him. He tried to think of how to escape. His thoughts were disrupted by a knock at the door.
Without him answering the door opened to who appered to be his butler.
"Master Dick, breakfast is ready for you," Alfred said from the door.
Definitely not Alfred, he always called him by his full name. Who ever had him though, atleast knew part of his name. Not good. Thinking carefully of what to say Robin answered.
"Thank you I'll be down soon" he replied.
"Master wishes for you to remain in your room. I'll bring it up to you," the man bowed and left to get his meal.
So the person didn't want him to leave his room. If he didn't think fast Robin could be in real trouble.

SuperBoy was the first one up in the moutain. He woke up confused to why he was on the couch. When his mind caught up to him he remembered last night, and realized he was missing a certain little bird. Not thinking anything of it he got up to shower.
Being in a new made place it hard for Artemis to sleep. Which lead the newest sidekick to wake up and silently slipped out of the martian's room. The archer was uncertain of the layout of the cave she was in and thought it best to stick to the shadows. Wondering down the hallway Artemis bumped into Kaldur who see didn't see coming in the dark hall.
"Sorry" she mumbled
He nodded, "It is fine. I was just coming to get you two. Batman wants us."
She scowled, still tired and sore from their last mission.
"Already? Come on it's too soon"
The Alatian gave her a small smile, "Our jobs maybe small but they are important."
"Right" she answered.
He gave her directions to the living room type area and continued on his way to M'gann.
Soon the entire young justice was gathered save for Boy Wonder. They were all nervous because Batman looked pissed and when he was mad you sure as hell don't want to be the one who put him in that mood. Even Black Canary looked worried which did not help them at all.
Finished glaring at them Batman spoke, his voice gruff and harsh, "Since forming this team you have been given small missions. Some have been successful," this put them at ease slightly, "however your failures outweigh them. You have trouble working together, lack of communication and trust, and don't know how to follow orders. I'll be putting this team on strict restrictions."
As the team leader Kaldur spoke up, "What kind of restrictions?"
"As of now, now you'll be taking in smaller things if anything at all. The rest will be explained by Black Canary."
With that explaination he looked over each member. As if just realizing his side kick wasn't there he growled.
"Where is Robin?"
They looked around as if he would appear. It was clear they didn' t know, and this served to make him angrier.
"Where. Is. Robin?" he repeated stressing each word.
Suddenly an alarm went off and Superman's face appered from the screen to the left of Batman. A feeling of dread washed over them.

Again I apologize for any mistakes ^^; my beta's computer is down but I thought I'd put this up regardless.
I already have the next chapter in the works.
