Okay, I have been getting few, I mean, few complaints about chapter 34: Pain where Wally cheats on Artemis and fans of Wally are upset that I made him into that character. And I am here to apologize if I had offended you in ANY way possible. But guys, this is FANfiction. There is a reason why it is called that. I mean, I'm not trying to be rude or anything, but it's fanfiction, we can write and create how a story can go. It was like an experiment for me on how I write this, so sorry!

38. Spitfire

Really, she didn't know why or how she got into this situation, but she's in this situation. Artemis was making both her and Wally some sandwich while working on their homework. They were in complete silence as they were doing what they were supposed to do. Wally stopped scribbling on his paper and started to space off he's pencil tapping the table. After a few minutes Artemis glanced over her shoulder to see what he was up to; Wally was staring blankly at the ceiling and leaning back against his chair. She raised a brow.

"Is everything alright Wally?" She asked, squirting mustard on his bread.

"Yeah, just thinking..." He trailed off.

"Well that's not good," she teased. Wally frowned and pouted at her.

"Very funny, Arty, but I've been really thinking...it kind of gets lonely here, doesn't it?" Wally examined their apartment. "I mean, sure, the team would visit often and we would talk, but they don't stay here forever."

Artemis stopped what she was doing and walked over to her. "And? What's wrong, Wally?"

"I've been thinking," he said again. "How about we get a dog?"

The blond Vietnamese blinked. "...Come again?"

"You heard me right, Artemis, let's get a dog." He smiled at her.

"Wally..." She sighed. "I don't think getting a dog right now is a good idea. A dog is a lot of responsibility." She sounded like a mom talking to her child about getting their first pet.

"But Artemis," Wally started to whine, oh god. "I thought you liked dogs!"

No, she didn't like dogs, she loved dogs. She adored them to death, but getting a dog right now during their first of their college semester didn't seem like a good idea, and...wait a minute. Artemis's thoughtful expression turned sour and into a scowl.

"Wally...is there a dog in our house?"

Wally flinched.

"Well..." He dragged out.

"Wally! You bought a dog without my premission!?" Artemis hissed.

"No! I didn't bought him, I found him, there is a difference." He sheepishly grinned.

"...You found him?"

Wally nodded enthusiactically. "He was all alone in the cardboard box, I couldn't exactly leave him there...it didn't feel right." He mumbled.

Artemis stared at her boyfriend for a few minutes, her mind whirring on how to deal with this. After a few more seconds she sighed and pinched the bridge of her nose. "Where's the dog?"

He perked up and zoomed out of there. He walked back in later with a blue bundle, clutching it close to his chest. He walked up to her and handed it over to her. Artemis gingerly took it from him and peered inside the bundle. It was a small white...boxer, she think it's a boxer, was sleeping in the warmth the blanket was providing. He looked a few years old, probably out in the street for quite some time now. Artemis sighed again.

"...Fine, we can keep him," Wally rejoiced. "But we're going to have to take turns in taking care of him, got it?"

"Of course, Babe, you can count on me."

"So, did you come up with a name for him?"

"Yup," he popped the P. "How about Spitfire?"

Artemis looked at him, confused. "Spitfire? Why Spitfire?"

He had on a mysterious smile, a smile in which she rarely gets to see. "Oh, just a reason."

I think this is how it went when they got their dog Spitfire...at least, that is his name, right? Sorry for the lack of update guys I have been working on one of my other story, it's an Anime/Manga version. But nobody seems to like it, oh well. I hope you guys liked this.
