My Sunshine Chapter 2: Sing For Me?, a young justice fanfic

My Sunshine

Part 2, Sing for me

They laid in the bed- their bed. Sweat lingered on their skin as they rested beneath the sheets. Wally looked close to passing out. His energy was spent and his injuries were starting to take a toll on him. But something, or rather someone, that still kept him awake. He tightened his grasp around Artemis' waist and pulled her further up his chest. Even though it hurt.

" Sing to me," He whispered softly, his lips brushing her forehead. He sounded almost winded. Artemis shifted, hoping to relieve some of his pain but his arms only tightened more." Please."

She smiled smally. Any other day and she would've said no and maybe elbow him if he continued to pester. But this wasn't any other day.

" You are my sunshine,

My only sunshine,

You make me happy,

When skies are grey,

You'll never know dear,

How much I love you,

Please don't take,

My sunshine,

Away..."

Artemis knew why she sang that verse, over and over. It was what Wally sung to her when her and her mum were nearly evicted from their apartment. When they nearly lost each other in a mission. When she left to play the bad girl and when she came back into his arms. No tears fell but her eyes stung. Her smile widened as she sung till her voice cracked and her throat went dry and Wally fell asleep.
