Arrowette
Young Justice HQ
August 10th 2016
"I really like him." Bart froze as those words reached his ears. Was that Cassie speaking?
"Then go for it girl!" Karan? Bart froze outside the Young Justice break room where the two girls were speaking in hushed voices that still reached his ears.
"But I get so nervous around him! He's one of the new guys and well we barely talk and when we do it's about missions! I hardly know anything about him." Cassie retorted quickly as an excuse.
"Girl, that's what the first date is for! He's just a boy, who cares if he's a newer guy? Ask him on a date the next time you see him so you guys can get to know each other!" Karan shot back. Bart, being a bit thick headed, thought Karan might be talking about him, besides who else was newer than he was? He liked Cassie and all but he didn't like her that way. With a quick grin and running through his thoughts on how to let her down easy, Bart strode into the room, a quick glance at Cassie and a quick elbow to the ribs from Karan made Bart all the more sure of himself as Cassie flushed red.
"B-bart?" she called out and he stopped in his steps.
"Yeah?" Cassie huffed and stood from her seat and walked up to the scarlet speedster.
"C-can I ask you a question?" he could see the nervousness radiating off her. He himself was beginning to feel a little nervous, how could he let a girl like her down? Maybe he should give her a chance?
"Uh crash, I love questions." Bart laughed on the outside but face palmed on the inside, he loved questions? Really was that the best he could come up with?
"Uh, okay?" Cassie laughed a little. "Uh do you know where Jaime is? I need to talk to him…" she laughed and blushed a little more. Bart's entire ego deflated a whole five inches at the mention of Jaime. Did she like Jaime instead?
"Uh yeah he's…uh- he's uh at his house I think?" Bart stumbled over words before he remembered where his blue friend was at the moment. "I think it was something about getting a present for his sister or something…"
"Uh cool, do you know his address? Think I can get it? It's super important." Cassie bit her lip and begged.
"Yeah…" Bart whispered before giving her the information and heading away and towards his own room at the new Young Justice HQ.
Later that very same day, Jaime came back to the HQ, a grin on his face bigger than Bart had ever seen.
"Hey dude, what's got you in a happy mood?" Bart questioned as he zipped to the couch beside Jaime.
"Nothing." Jaime grinned at his best friend as he reached for the TV remote. Bart, being a speedster, was quick to grab the remote first and keep it from his friend.
"Tell me what's up dude," Bart smiled and wiggled the remote above his head "and I'll give you the remote."
"The roof is what's up." Jaime shot back before snatching the remote from a slightly confused Bart.
"Dude, that is so not what I meant." Bart complained with a pout and crossing his arms.
"It's what I understood amigo." Jaime flicked through the channels as Bart just eyed the boys unmoving smile.
"Really Jaime, what's got you so happy?" Bart asked, seeming a little worried now. Jaime who caught on to Bart's worried feelings finally sighed and turned to his friend.
"I'm going on a date with Cassie tomorrow night, no big deal." He shrugged before returning to the TV. Bart bit his lip and nodded.
"Crash." He muttered before zipping out of the room. He went to his bedroom and slammed the door harder than he had meant to. Sitting on his bed he thought this over, why was he so affected by the fact that Jaime and Cassie were gonna go on a date? Bart laughed it off before laying down and without another thought, drifting into sleep.
The next morning was just as always, he and Jaime hung out for a while after breakfast. They raced a little, had lunch, competed with their powers, Tye even tagged along around one in the afternoon. The three boys played video games for a while, then Tye headed home and Jaime told Bart he'd catch up with him later and left. At five, Bart had nothing and nobody to hang out with.
Finally deciding to head back to the HQ he stopped dead in his tracks when he spotted Cassie leaving…looking like a real girl. Her hair was curled and a pretty pink bow held a half ponytail on her head, light shades of blue eye shadow decorated her eyelids, while she wore a mid-thigh blue dress with pale white flats. Bart stared at the girl strangely, never had he seen Cassie look like a girl, let alone wearing a dress.
"Getting a little girly aren't we?" Bart laughed as he stopped beside a now blushing Cassie.
"Does it look good?" she questioned as she straightened out her dress a little and reached for a pale blue purse from the black marble counter of the kitchen.
"Looks great." Bart forced a grin once the thought of her and Jaime hanging out with her dressed like this reached his mind. A smile grew to her lips before she kissed his cheek.
"Thanks Bart, I get to go on a date with Jaime because of you. I can't thank you enough." She smiled before heading to the zeta beams. Once she was gone Bart dropped to the ground.
"Do I like her or something?" he whispered feeling more than a little confused about why he didn't want Jaime and Cassie going on a date.
"Bart?" he snapped his head to the intruding voice only to find Nightwing standing there with a slim blonde girl to his side.
"Yeah?" he questioned.
"Where is everybody."
"Jaime and Cassie are on a date! I think Megan is with her uncle, Conner went out, he said something about Wendy or Wendys I can't remember uh La'gaan is still in Atlantis and so is Kaldur, Karan is out, Mal is visiting his mom, uh Robin is playing video games with Gar, Tye is home, Toshio, Ramon and Virgil are all still at their homes, um Barbra said she had homework and left, and well I'm here, you're there, and Roy is getting life lessons from Roy and something about Roy getting to meet Roy and Jade's kid or something." Bart answered before Nightwing shook his head.
"Alright then, could you show Cissie around the HQ?" Nightwing pointed a thumb to the girl at his side who looked less than amused at the sight of Bart sitting on the ground.
"Sure." Bart mumbled before climbing to his feet and walking over to the pair. "Why can't you do it though?" Nightwing narrowed his eyes.
"I have to be in Gotham for patrol soon." Bart nodded before Nightwing turned to walk away. "By the way her room is number 28." Bart nodded before Nightwing was out of sight and the computer announced his departure.
"So what's your name?" Cissie questioned.
"Bart, I'm from the future, I'm also known as Impulse, but you can call me just about anything, anything is crash with me." Bart shrugged before he began to walk towards the exit that led to the main part of the HQ.
"Crash?" Cissie questioned.
"Yeah you know, it means cool, awesome, fine, any of that really." He smiled at her over his shoulder. The girl stood at about the same height as him, she was slim with thick blonde hair that was draped around her shoulders and down to the bottom of her back, her eyes were a light brown and her skin a tan peach, in short, she resembled Artemis a lot.
"That's cool, mind if I use that term?" she questioned.
"Not at all, go ahead." Bart stopped in front of a door and pushed it open to reveal a large gym with mirrors side by side on one wall, a hoop, weight lifting section, a door leading to an archery room, another door leading to a pool, one leading to a track, acrobatic bars and swings hanging from the ceiling at all different heights.
"So this is where you guys train I'm assuming?" she smiled.
"You assume right." Bart smiled. "We train about three hours a day in here, then about two hours with Black Canary." Bart pointed out all the different stations and they visited the pool, track and archery rooms. In the pool room, there was a little section that opened up to the ocean slowly and resembled a beach as the water slowly became higher the deeper you walked, until you reached the end of the HQ and were out in the ocean, something Kaldur found quite useful. After about a half hour of explaining the whole training room, the two exited to the educational part of the HQ.
"This is where we keep like books, boards, desks and stuff, Gar is basically the only one who uses it since he's really the only one who can't go to normal school." Bart shrugged.
"So you're all expected to still attend school?" Cissie laughed.
"Yeah." Bart grinned cheekily at her.
"Crash." She grinned as she used his word. "Can we check out the relaxation room that has snacks and stuff in it?" she laughed before he nodded.
"We call it the living room, it's connected to the kitchen, it's right down the hall from here and upstairs is the sleeping quarter, the briefing room is right downstairs though and everything else is basically right in the middle." Bart explained the concept of the three levels of the HQ. Cissie nodded before the walked into an empty room with a large flat-screen TV against one wall, opposite to the TV was a black marble counter with a large window slot that showed off the fancy kitchen on the other side of the wall, a door was held open, leading into the kitchen and another door beside it led to a large dining table, one that could seat the whole team and still have some empty seats. In the living room, right in front of the TV sat a brown coffee table with a four seater couch in in front of it and a two seater couch on either side.
"You guys must love it here." Cissie commented as she noticed the homework strewn across the coffee table, the jackets resting on the couch side, shoes resting beside a door labeled 'warehouse exit' it looked like a home, a comfortable home to Cissie, one she wouldn't mind living in.
"Yeah, it's pretty crash, it always feels like home." Bart commented as he headed to the kitchen. Flicking the lights on he walked to the pantry and pulled it open. "What do you wanna eat?" he questioned with a glance.
"Anything." She stated as she looked around the large kitchen. All the cabinets a shiny brown, the counters a marble black and the stove, microwave and fridge a slick black, a large marble counter resting in the dead center on the kitchen, a large amount of walking space remaining in any direction of it.
"What about some Chicken Whizees? Nightwing just stocked up on everything, you could look around for something else if you want." Bart muttered as he struggled to rip open the bag holding all the little bags of Chicken Whizees.
"I'll settle for some chips." She walked over just as Bart managed to open it and plucked a bag for herself. "Do you guys get cable here?" she questioned, making her way to the living room.
"Yeah." Bart stated as if the question was stupid. Cissie threw her shoes to the side of the couch before dropping to it and holding the remote in her left hand, her feet now resting on the coffee table. The TV flickered on and Family Guy popped up as Bart dropped to the couch at her side.
"Can we watch this?" she glanced at Bart before he nodded, knowing very well that Nightwing hated this show. "Crash." She dropped the remote and the two of them sat there, for hours watching the marathon, piles of junk food resting on the table before anybody came home.
"That was the funniest movie ever." Cassie's voice rang out as she and Jaime walked in through the door labeled 'warehouse exit'.
"It wasn't supposed to be funny." Jaime laughed, his hand intertwined with her tiny ones.
Cissie blinked at the intruders before turning to Bart. "Who are they?"
"That's Cassie and Jaime, also known as Wonder Girl and Blue Beetle." Bart stated bitterly as he eyed their hands. Finally the couple noticed the two sitting on the couch, the piles of dirty plates and trash at their feet, the TV show, and finally their eyes rested on the mysterious blonde girl.
"Dude?" Jaime blinked his eyes to Bart. "Why is there a civilian in here?"
"I'm not a civilian!" Cissie snapped before jumping to her feet. "I'll let you know I could take you down with one arrow if I wanted to!" she huffed.
"Well then how come we've never seen you?" Cassie shot back.
"Ever heard of newcomers? I arrived a few hours ago, I'm sure Nightwing was going to tell you guys but you weren't here and were probably too busy sucking face." Cissie shot back and Bart noticed both Jaime and Cassie go beat red.
"It was a first date! I don't kiss on the first date!" both of them shouted, causing both to blush even more.
"Whatever, Bart and I had a blast while you guys were gone." Cissie smirked at them. "We didn't even have to make out to have a fun time." Jaime's eyes drifted from the blonde girl to Bart himself, who was blushing a bit. Jaime couldn't help but feel just a tad jealous, why didn't he and Cassie spend their time here? They might as well have, Cassie didn't want to go to an actual movie theater, she said she had something against them and wouldn't even go near them, they had spent their night at dinner then watching a movie at a drive in theater, because that was a different case to Cassie, and nothing like an actual movie theater.
"Whatever." Cassie rolled her eyes before heading towards the hallway door, Jaime at her heels.
"What's their problem?" Cissie fumed as she dropped back to the couch.
"Nothing." Bart muttered before changing the channel. "The rest of the team members might be home soon, we shouldn't really be watching that show." Cissie shrugged before reaching for the remote in Bart's hands. His face flushed red when her hand rested on his, she slipped the remote from his hand and flicked the TV off before standing and grabbing her shoes from the floor.
"We should get to the sleeping quarter, I need to know where my room is anyways." Bart nodded before climbing to his feet too and leading her to the stairs and elevator of the HQ. They went up the stairs and soon were facing a long hall of doors nearly side by side.
"Why are they so close together?" Cissie commented as they walked down the hall.
"Uh, they have a little hall at the entrance then it branches out into a large room." Bart explained.
"I'm assuming there aren't any windows right?" Cissie questioned, the thought of being underwater suddenly hitting her.
"Right, there are 'windows' but they just show off the ocean." Bart shrugged before they finally reached door number 28.
"Why is my number so big?" she questioned as Bart punched in a four digit code on the pad by the door before a soft click signaled the door being unlocked.
"Uh, you're assigned your room by your designation number." Bart glanced at her but interrupted. "You get your designation number in the order that you join. You're the 28th member so your number is 28." She closed her mouth and nodded as the light inside the room clicked on to reveal a short hall before it branched out into a large room. A queen sized bed in the center of the room, bedside dressers on either side, a large window showing off the ocean, a large TV resting on the dark wooden dresser across the bed, a mirror hanging above the dresser, a closet door rested on the wall to the left of the hall, another door to the right of the hall led to the bathroom, the floor was a dark wooden brown and pale pink rugs sat on either side of the bed, the yellow walls not matching anything.
"I get to redecorate right?" Cissie eyed the walls before Bart laughed and nodded.
"Yeah, everybody does." Cissie nodded.
"Can I see your room?" Bart nodded before they left the room and walked down a couple doors, even numbers on one side and odd numbers on the other side. They came to the door number 23 and Bart entered a four digit code. "Is the code personalized or will I have to memorize a number or get locked out of my room?"
"Personalized, you can enter it yourself but you have to do that from the screen on the wall beside your bed." Cissie nodded as Bart entered his room. She couldn't help but gasp at the sight, the place was amazing, the walls were painted a crimson red, the dresser a dark brown, the window held white and red curatins, pictures decorated the walls, giving the room a nice touch, his blankets were a combination of yellow, white and red, with the lightning bolts on it separating the colors. The two nightstands were dark brown, like the dresser, and on one rested a bedside lamp with the Flash emblem on it, on the other sat a silver laptop with textbooks scattered on the floor beside the nightstand, a red rug under the books. The headboard itself was also a dark brown, the doors a pale white and inside it sat a laundry basket, with clothes scattered around it and some hanging where they belonged.
"Your room feels so comfortable." She laughed.
"Well I tried." Bart shrugged. She looked around and her eyes couldn't help but drift to the pictures of Bart and Jaime.
"Is he like your best friend?" she asked as she studied a picture of Bart and Jaime standing in front of an amusement park.
"Yeah you could say that." Bart said as he eyed the picture in Cissie's hands. "He was the first person I opened up to." Cissie nodded before setting the picture back down and turning to look at Bart.
"Do you ever get tired of it?" Bart raised an eyebrow at her question. "Tired of being here. Don't you miss the future where you were born and raised? Don't you ever wonder what it'll be like when you finally reach the part in your life when you're born?"
"It won't be me."
"What?"
"It won't ever be me. My past is done and over. My past never existed, when I am born in the new future, it won't be me." Cissie shivered at the idea of his past not existing, she didn't want to know the feelings he must have had.
"You aren't at all what I expected." She stated.
"Why?" Bart couldn't help the smile.
"Impulse is always so hyperactive and happy on the news, always a smile gracing his thin lips, but you. You're not as hyperactive, or maybe it's just me." She laughed. "Maybe I bring out the bad side in everybody, I tend to do that."
"No. Your just brought out the real me."
Urg! I wanted it to be all happy and bluepulse and stuff but instead it ended up like Wonderbeetle and what would you guys call Arrowette and Impulse? Like Arrowpulse, haha I totally just created that you guys. Unless it already exist…then I didn't… What about like…nah I still like Arrowpulse. That's it. I call it Arrowpulse, that's Bart/Cissie.
Um, I'm not sure if I'll end up pairing Cissie and Bart to make Jaime jealous and realize his feelings and destiny with Bart…haha that sounded creepy, ah no. But I'll mess around with a few different pairings in this, you'll see a bit of everything.
Feel free to send in suggestions, or prompts, any kind of story you guys want to see or want me to write!
