Thanks for all the reviews guys! That made me happy! Ok, so here's the….18th chapter! Wow, I felt I only started this story last week….Anyway, I'm playing this one by ear, just to let you know! Also, I'll see if I can update anytime this week…. I'm kind of grounded, so I'm only allowed my laptop on Fridays and weekends, so we'll see how that goes. If my parents have a good a memory as me, they'll forget easily! Anyway suggestions and ideas are welcomed. Enjoy!

Disclaimer: As my memory serves me, I don't own anything!

"Hey dude, where are you?" Wally asked

"Uh, confidential mission; from Batman," Robin said

"Wow, you want to know what I'm doing. Making a baloney sandwich, kind of like you just did; I talked to Tornado; you guys are not on a mission, not an official one anyway." Wally said with edge on his voice

"A friend; Jack Haley," Robin said with defeat

Wally softened, "The circus guy? From your old Flying Grayson days?"

"Yeah," Robin sighed, "They suspected him of stealing, and if I don't prove him innocent, than he could lose the circus."

"Why didn't you bring me along? I know what that circus means to you; it's where you grew up, where you lost your-"

Robin interrupted him, "I left you behind because you know my back story. I didn't want my best pal questioning my objectivity."

"Dude, that's what a best pal's for."

Robin hung up after that and Wally sighed. He knew he wasn't going to win with Dick about something like this. He'll admit, he was feeling pretty useless that his best pal didn't want to bring him along just because he was his best pal. That was a major blow to his self-esteem. He probably thinks I'll screw up and I don't want him to lose something so important to him, Wally thought.

He didn't want to be here in the cave. He wanted to go home. Wow, that's the first time I actually wanted to go home and not be afraid of it, Wally thought.

"Hey Aunt Iris!" Wally said as he came through the door.

"Actually kid, Iris had to go the grocery store, and I got off of League Duty, so it's just me and you!" Barry said

Wally smiled and said, "Sweet, what do you want to do?"

Barry thought and then smiled, "Want to blow things up with science?"

"Do you even have to ask?" Wally smirked

That afternoon, they made various bombs that blew up, made the bottles rocked sky high, and fizz over with liquid. Other all, it was a wonderful day for the two speedsters. But the whole time, Barry was thinking of something, and just couldn't find the right words to say it to Wally. "So, uh, Wally…." Barry started nervously.

"Yeah Uncle B.?" Wally asked

"Well, um, you see Iris and I were talking today, about what happened last night…" Barry said a paused, trying to think of what to say next

Wally grew quiet and went to go sit down on the piano bench. Yes, both speedsters knew how to play; it helped them slow down. "Oh, okay…." Wally said as he brushed his fingers over the keys.

"And we were thinking, that it was kind of nice; you calling me dad…."

Wally lite up, "Really?"

"Yeah, and I hope you think of me as your dad, and a good one, not the one you had before…because, um, I think of you as a son, and Iris does too," Barry finally said as he smiled.

Wally was beaming and said without a beat, "Yeah, I do think of you as a dad! You were much more than my other one was."

Somehow, that made Barry's heart break, but he continued anyway. "So we were thinking about making you our son, legal."

Wally got up and embraced him into a tight hug, in which Barry was more than happy to give back. Wally was finally going to have a father that cares, and Barry was finally going to have a son like Wally that he always wanted. They let go of each other, and without a word, sat down on the piano bench and played a song together, and that lasted until Iris came home….an hour later. Let's just say, Iris took a picture of her two boys smiling wide, playing the piano, and acting like a father and son should be.

Eventually, Barry left Wally to play the piano alone, because he promised to take Iris out to eat dinner tonight as a date. Wally happily played the piano, when a thought stuck him. No, it can't be, Wally thought as he ran up to his room. He tore his room apart until he found it; the law book Justin West gave him. He quickly flipped through the pages until he found it; adoption. Wally started to tear up, because he knew that Uncle Barry and Aunt Iris couldn't adopt him. They tried to convict Justin West of corruption, but no proof was found, for they couldn't find him. So that means his father's sentence stays the way it is; for now. Anyway, adopting in America takes up to at least seven months, maybe eight until it's official. And that was a big problem, because Rudolph West was expected to be out of jail by then, in which he might have to go live with his dad again….

Wally left the book open on the kitchen counter, for he kept reading it over and over again, not believing it. He got a snack and went back to the piano.

The Team got back from their mission, and Robin went to go find Wally, only to find a half-eaten baloney sandwich. "Baywatch always eats his food," Artemis.

Robin nodded and said, "Something is wrong."

"Maybe we should go check up on him," Conner said and the whole team nodded. So they were all officially going to see Wally. When they got to Wally's house, they heard a beautiful sound. Robin being Robin walked into the house for he was practically family, and the rest of the team followed awkwardly, saves for Artemis who really didn't care.

Everyone looked at Wally, as he played the piano, and mumbled/sang some words that they heard just barely.

"Someone once told me that you have to choose
What you win or lose
You can't have everything
Don't you take chances
Might feel the pain
Don't you love in vain
Cause love won't set you free
I can't stand by the side
And watch this life pass me by
So unhappy
But safe as could be

So what if it hurts me?
So what if I break down?
So what if this world just throws me off the edge
My feet run out of ground
I gotta find my place
I wanna hear my sound
Don't care about all the pain in front of me
Cause i'm just trying to be happy, yeah
Just wanna be happy, yeah"

By then Robin put a hand on Wally's shoulder for comfort, and so did everyone else, except Artemis. She went to the kitchen and looked at the open book. She read the entire page, but none of it made any sense; shouldn't Wally be happy that Barry and Iris are adopting him? There is something so much more going on. The best they could do for Wally now, is make him happy.
