(This one is... I don't know what it is.)
Punk Rocket glanced over at Argent again. Still passed out. Still unconscious. Still not there.
He couldn't bring her to the tower, he'd get arrested. He couldn't bring her to the base, everyone would kill him and be pissed off that they didn't know he was dating a titan.
Punk had done his best he could do- after putting on her holo-ring (which was thankfully in her pocket and did not fall out), he dragged her into a hotel and just claimed she had fallen asleep in the car. Luckily the ring covered up the various injuries.
What had happened?
FLASHBACK!
Punk Rocket and Johnny Rancid were having a good time, Punk was flying on his guitar and Johnny was barreling down the bridge at very high speeds, both of which were hitting random targets with sound blasts and laser guns.
Then Argent, Beast Boy, and Robin came out of nowhere and moved in. Beast Boy took on Punk, and Argent and Robin went after Johnny.
Johnny mentioned later he honestly didn't mean to hit Argent dead on. He was just aiming for her arm, but she moved and it hit her in the gut, sending her backwards and her head hit one of the several cables at the bridge, knocking her out and sending her down into the bay.
Beast Boy had already been taken out, so thankfully he didn't see Punk give a strangled cry and dive down after her.
Luckily, she wasn't hurt too badly, as in, no neck injuries. Punk picked her up and quickly flew off, knowing that later he was going to get his ear chewed off by Johnny.
What scared him was how she looked. She had a nasty bruise on the back of her head, and her already inhumanly pale skin looked lifeless.
END OF SCARY FLASHBACK!
Argent's eyes slowly opened. "Oh, thank goodness." Punk said, breathing out. "Oi... what happened... am I having a hangover?" Argent tried sitting up, but couldn't due to that her back felt like it was black and blue. "Stay lying down, love. You took a nasty fall." Punk said.
Argent smiled at Punk. "Could I at least see myself?" She asked. Punk chuckled and helped her up. Argent glowered at the mirror. "I look like hell." She said.
Punk didn't bother saying otherwise. Her forehead had a nasty cut, her arms were covered in bruises, and her back looked like one giant bruise. Luckily, she didn't see her back, so Punk just smoothed her messy hair. "I don't think the bird leader saw me run off with you, so we're good there." He said, laying her down on the bed again.
Argent raised one of her eyebrows. "And Johnny?" She asked. Punk laughed nervously. "Not a clue how he'll react."
Argent groaned. "Not cool."
They stayed at the hotel for three days, waiting for Argent to be able to fly off. Thankfully, she recovered by the end of it.
Argent pecked his cheek. "Thanks, Thomas. I'll make up something." She said. "No problem, fair lady." Punk joked, trying not to blush.
Argent took off in one direction, and Punk took off in the other.
When he arrived at base, before he was questioned, Johnny promptly grabbed him by the ear and dragged him into the gym, kicking Red X and Ravager out (he promised the latter a six-pack of Coke later).
Johnny glared at his younger friend. "Start talking. Why did you run off with that one crazy pale bitch?" He growled. Punk glared back. "Johnny, I can handle myself just fine you know." He snapped.
Johnny and Punk had a stare off, then Johnny sighed and said, "I already knew." Punk blinked in surprise and said, "Knew what?" His voice had cracked. Johnny rolled his eyes. "That you and her had been sneaking around. Saw you two a while ago. Just curious why you didn't talk up."
Punk shrugged. "Because it's my business. And please tell me you didn't tell the others." "I didn't." Punk sighed with relief. "You've kept my secrets, I'll keep yours."
Johnny then grinned and said, "That doesn't mean I'll use it for blackmail later." Punk laughed nervously and said, "You're kidding, right mate?" Johnny turned around and walked away. "Johnny? Not cool, dude!"
(Bahaha, that last part was what inspired the whole thing.
Bye byes, remember to review!)
