Wrote this in less than an hour but I liked the concept. Hope you enjoy. Hopefully I'll get at least 1 review on the chapter.

"Oh, God. He's dead. Barely a week in and we've already lost a man,"

"Don't be stupid, of course he isn't dead. He can breathe underwater!"

Inside the Titans East Tower, Bumblebee and Speedy stood at the edge of the pool, looking down to the bottom of it. That is where, moments before, they discovered their aquatic teammate, Aqualad. Once Bumblebee's words registered in the archer's mind, he relaxed and began to think reasonably. He brought a hand to his chin in thought.

"What is he doing down there?" Both Titans leaned closer to the water, trying to get a closer look. They stayed alert though, knowing that the mischievous twins wouldn't hesitate to "accidently" run by them and knock them off balance. Hopefully, those two were still in bed. Bumblebee squinted her eyes to get a better look at the boy at the bottom of the pool.

"I think he's...sleeping." She said, her confusion conveyed in her voice. Speedy looked at her, confused as well.

"Sleeping? Why would he be sleeping in the pool? He has a bed!" Speedy asked.

"I'm not sure, but at least he is sleeping. Haven't you noticed how tired he has been?" That must have been Bumblebee's motherly instinct making another appearance, which it had been doing more frequently since becoming leader of the Titans East. She had noticed the bags under his eyes and his obvious fatigue, but last night when she urged him to go to his room and get some rest, he refused, insisting that he was fine.

"Do you think he fell asleep while swimming laps?" The archer asked curiously. Bumblebee slowly shook her head, and then looked back to the pool as she noticed movement at the bottom.

"I doubt it. That boy is too damn aware during his workouts to let that happen. It looks like we're about to find out though," The leader said, taking a step away from the pool and pushing Speedy back a little bit too. He glared at her for a moment before being startled by the sound of splashing as the figure in the water surfaced. Aqualad's eyes widened as he saw his two older teammates staring at him with questioning eyes. He shook it off as he grabbed onto the ledge of the pool and pulled himself out with one swift moment. He walked past them and grabbed a towel, drying his face and ringing out his hair before asking:

"Can I help you?"

The other two Titans broke out of the stupor at the sound of his voice. Speedy immediately spoke.

"Yeah, you can help us. You can start by telling us what you were doing at the bottom of the pool at..." He checked his watch, "seven thirty in the morning," He eyed the Atlantean suspiciously from under his mask, leaning in closer as if he would hear the answer better. Aqualad shrugged and continued patting himself dry.

"I was sleeping," He said casually. From a few feet away, his leader became excited.

"Ha! I knew it!" She shouted with a smug look on her face. Both boys looked at her for a moment before Speedy turned back to Aqualad.

"And...why were you sleeping in a pool when you have a perfectly good bed in your room?" The archer asked, eyebrow raised. Aqualad shrugged again.

"I can't sleep in it. It's just..too soft and unnatural. I'm used to sleeping around water I guess. This is the first night that I've slept a decent amount since we moved in...I just didn't want to bother anyone," He finished lamely.

"Is that why you stayed up until we all went to sleep last night? So you could sneak into the pool to sleep?" Bumblebee asked. Aqualad nodded.

"I was hoping to be awake before everyone, but I guess I was really tired..." He said sheepishly.

"So, what are we gonna do about this? I know he doesn't like the bed, but I don't want Fishface to have to sleep in the pool every night," Speedy said to the leader of the team.

"It's fine, really-" Aqualad's protest was cut off by Bumblebee.

"I know just the thing." She said with a smile

"Do you think he likes it?" Speedy whispered as they walked down the hall. It was the middle of the night and Aqualad had gone to bed hours ago. He hadn't come out of his room, so they took that as a good sign. They were approaching the Atlantean's door.

"I hope so..shh, don't be too loud, I don't want to wake him up,"

"Yeah, wouldn't want to let him know that we are creeping on him in the middle of the night. But as long as he doesn't know, it's fine," Speedy said sarcastically. If his eyes had been uncovered, she would've seen them roll. Bumblebee ignored him and slowly slid the door open enough to see inside the room. Lying there, on the newly purchased waterbed, was Aqualad, fast asleep.

Hope you liked it! Review!
