Wally and the others heard Zatana's scream and raced for the dining room, the sight that met the speedster who arrived first shocked him. But he acted quickly and dove for his best friend.
"Rob No!", he screamed as he collided with the teen and knocked him off of Zatana. The shaken girl sat up and watched them tumble across the floor as Kaldur came to her side. The tumbling had caused both the teens to land in a heap, Wally hissing in pain as Robin curled in pain, his body screaming from the tussle. When he looked to the side he took in Wally's pained face, the older teen had landed on top of him. Trying to move Robin noticed how the knife had not left his hand, but had in the scuffle pierced Wally's side. Releasing the handle he turned his body and rolled so Wally was laying flat on his back.
"K.F.? What were you thinking?", he watched as Artemis and M'gann came to them. Wally chuckled as he pulled the knife from his skin slowly and then tossed it across the floor.
"You needed help Rob, and don't worry its just a flesh wound", Artemis grabbed a cloth napkin and covered the wound.
"He's right it isn't deep", Robin looked to Artemis and then turned to look at Zatana who was now standing beside Kaldur looking sorrowful.
"It was my fault, im sorry Robin", the faces of his team mates as they looked at him made him feel like an out cast. He had proven he wasn't ready to return to their normal life, his mind was still fragile and easily alarmed. Getting to his feet he backed up till he hit the wall and slowly sank to the floor, curling up.
"Team report to training, Artemis take Wally to the med lab, Zatana-", Kaldur looked to the magic girl but she shook her head.
"Let me talk to him…please?", she whispered softly and Kaldur reluctantly nodded.
When everyone was gone she turned to look at Robin her eyes shining with tears, he was always so full of life and mischief, but the teen that sat before her seemed hollow and scared, like a shell. Sitting down beside him she didn't move to touch him or speak she just waited.
"You shouldn't be so close….im unpredictable…", he didn't lift his head as he spoke but she heard him very clearly.
"It was an accident, you didn't hurt me im fine", she offered softly.
"If Wally hadn't of intervened you could have been killed, it was like I had no control", this time he did lift his head. Zatana had always been fond of Robin, since they had first met. And when she had heard he was taken her heart nearly stopped, she knew then that Robin meant more to her then the rest of the team.
"Your wounds are still fresh and will take time to heal, the physical wounds may heal quickly, but mentally. Well you have to take it day by day", she leaned over and kissed his cheek before standing and leaving him alone in the dining room.
Artemis dabbed a cotton ball with antiseptic and turned to Wally who had removed his now trashed shirt and paused. The lean muscles in his body caste light shadows and he leaned forward on the gurney, still holding the napkin to his wounded side. He looked troubled, his brows drawn together and his lips set in a deep frown.
"Alright lets see", she snapped him out of his dream world and he sat up straight, removing the clothe. The wound was not deep and he hadn't lost a lot of blood but she treated it correctly to keep any bacteria from infecting it.
"That stuff stings", he whimpered.
"Oh hush you big baby, it does not", she of course lied and as she pressed it to his skin he drew in a hissing breath between his clenched teeth.
"Liar", he gasped. Shaking her head Artemis threw out the dirtied cotton ball and fetched a bandage from a near by draw.
"So….you live with Flash?", the question seemed to hang in the air for a moment and she had actually thought he hadn't heard her.
"Yeah, easier that way.", he looked down at her as she placed the bandage on his skin and flattened it.
"There it should be healed in a few hours with your immune system", he laughed lightly and slipped off the gurney to stand before her. Artemis took half a step back, when had Wally gotten taller then her?
"Thanks beautiful", he winked and stretched a bit to check for soreness.
"Are you gunna go talk to him?", she asked softly.
"No, better to give him a little time first. He is probably beating him self up pretty bad right now".
Roy entered his apartment by shouldering the door open, he was exhausted, the day searching for Joker had turned up little to no leads. Walking down the hall way he touched the archer statue on the small table and watched as the wall before him sank in and drew back to reveal a hidden room. The bright white lights lit up work benches and weapon walls, ranging from bows, cross bows and a few assorted high powered guns. Hanging up his red bow and quiver he left the room and waited for the wall to seal again. Looking down at his uniform he decided it was do for the furnace, the many holes and tears in the material from the night deemed it no longer wearable.
As he passed the kitchen he stopped and looked in through the living room, his place was well put together, the private condo took up an entire floor of the apartment building in the upper east side. With the passing of his parents he had inherited a large sum of money, and a few estates as well. And although he had a maid that saw to the cleaning daily he had been very sure she would not leave a wet towel in the hall leading to his room. Hell he was a bit of a neat freak any ways so he was sure he wouldn't allow him self to leave it there.
Crossing the living room he walked up the lifted stairs and into the hall way, leaning down he picked up the towel and stood back up. It was then he noticed the sound of soft music playing in his bed room. Dropping the towel he pulled a blade from a holster in his boot and quietly walked the rest of the way to the door. Peering in through the crack he couldn't see well so he pushed the door open and drew to a stop.
There stretched across his king sized bed, dressed in one of his red satin shirts lay Cheshire. Her long black hair was still damp, but her features were relaxed which quickly hinted she was asleep. But Roy had learned a thing or two when dealing with the petite female, never assume anything.
A few meetings ago he had left her a key to his apartment, he had grown tired of meeting her in motels and abandoned buildings. But the open floor to ceiling sliding glass window quickly let him know that she had not used the front door. When he got to the side of the bed he put his hands on the mattress and leaned over her slightly.
"You should know not to disturb a sleeping cat by now Arrow", he smirked she was right, he had most certainly learned. She had grown fond of nicknaming him, she either called him 'Hero' or 'Arrow', it depended on her mood really. He ran his gaze over her, his mask still in place as he took in her porcelain skin and how the deep red almost made her body glow.
"I don't remember seeking you out Chesh", he spoke calmly as he stood and watched her roll onto her stomach, her feet coming up to kick back and forth in the air.
"It isn't just you that has an itch you know", he raised an eyebrow at her remark.
"So you want me", it wasn't really a question but the look in her eyes told him, she wanted him. Getting onto her hands and knees she crawled across the bed till she reached him, rising up on her knees she grabbed his collar and pulled his body against hers.
"Don't you eve-".
"Hey Roy you home?", they both froze as Roy heard his Uncle call out for him. Cheshire cursed softly and leapt off the bed, tip toeing to his bathroom she closed the door behind her. Moving quickly Roy removed his mask and stripped out of his uniform, pulling on a pair of sweatpants he grabbed a long sleeve and pulled it over his head as he headed for the living room. The risk of having Cheshire in his apartment while his Uncle was there making his muscles tighten with tension.
"Oliver? What brings you here? So late?", he stepped down the three steps that brought him into the art deco stylized sitting area. Oliver turned to face him and brought a hand up to rub the back of his neck awkwardly.
"Just wanted to check in on you…its been a while", Roy felt his shoulders drop slightly at the sight of Oliver, he hadn't spoken to his Uncle like he used to. It had been a while since they last spoke to one another and for that Roy felt ashamed of him self. Despite the situation with the League and the team he shouldn't have let his personal life fall so far.
"It has….im sorry", he offered for Oliver to take a seat but the man seemed to look up and pause. Turning in the direction of his gaze Roy felt his heart skip a beat, there at the top of the steps stood Cheshire. She was now wrapped in a towel a towel, her hair also wrapped in a towel, but her face was covered in a skin cream mask.
"I do apologize I did not know you had company", Oliver looked at the girl and then Roy.
"Uh yes, Uncle this is…".
"Janie, Im Janie. Its so nice to meet some of Roy's family", she looked to Roy as he rubbed his face.
"Yes, I wasn't aware that he was seeing anyone, his job makes it hard for him to date", she nodded.
"I know he is away to often", she looked over and winked at Roy.
"Well I should be going then, give you some privacy. Roy keep in touch?", he looked at his Uncle and nodded.
"Yes definitely".
Once the door was closed and locked behind Oliver, Roy turned to face Cheshire watching as she rubbed the cream from her face with the towel that once held her hair. As she finished she looked at him with that seductive smile of hers and tossed the towel to the floor. He watched as she approached him slowly, the sway of her hips already making his body respond against his wish.
"What were you thinking Chesh?", she shrugged as she came to stand in front of him.
"Oh don't get your tights in a wad Hero", her hands traveled up his stomach and to his shoulders as she pushed him back against the door.
"Careful Chesh, im wound to tight", her eyes gleamed as she backed away and turned from him. Walking away she paused at the end of the split hall and looked over her shoulder, untwisting the knot in her towel it fell to the floor.
"Give me your worst Roy", she vanished around the corner and unable to stop him self he followed, seeking her out.
