Chapter 2 : The Medical File
Hi! I'm back with a new chapter, even though I feel like no one is interested in Young Justice. Honestly, it sucks that they stopped the series! (and that I was born in 2010)
There will probably be some Spanish starting in this chapter, a language I don't speak either...so if you notice any mistakes, don't hesitate to tell me about them!
Anyway, here's chapter 2, I hope you'll like it!
Disclaimer: I...I don't own...*holds back tears*... Young Justice...*burst into tears*
Mount Justice
December 3, 9:12 AM
After the mission:
"...and the bombs have been successfully defused. Well done everyone, the mission was a success. Go get some rest before any more missions." Nightwing finished. "Blue Beetle, please stay a while."
Jaime swayed nervously on his feet, as the rest of the team jokingly left the room.
"So, Jaime, what were your impressions of this first mission ?" Nightwing asked.
Jaime replied uncertainly:
"It was...quite impressive...working with the team. I find everyone very professional and trusting on each other, it shows during the missions..." Jaime smiled. "But I find it exciting, and I look forward to getting to know everyone."
Nightwing smiled back.
"You know, they're not as professional outside of missions. I think you should get along pretty well with them, especially Gar, M'gann and Cassie."
He added, seeing Jaime's questioning look:
"Garfield is Beast Boy and Cassie is Wondergirl. You already know M'gann."
Jaime nodded.
"Oh also, Jaime, I'll need you to provide me with your medical file, filled with all your medical history and all the information about your health. I'll need you to give it back to me by the day after tomorrow at the latest."
At these words, Jaime's stomach tightened.
Increased heart rate and stress level by 26%. the Scarab announced. You're being subjected to a stressful and uncomfortable situation.
No kidding, Jaime wanted to say.
"No...No problem. I-I'll give it back to you lo antes posible."
He met Nightwing's suspicious latter frowned slightly.
"Is everything okay, Jaime?"
"Yeah yeah, I'm just, uh, a little stressed."
Heart increased by 34%. Jaime Reyes, you need to breathe.
Jaime took a deep breath and tried to push down the panic that was filling him. If Nightwing found out what was written on his medical records, he would kick him off the team for sure, and his adventure with Young Justice would end before it even began. Jaime didn't want Nightwing to know, he didn't want anyone else to know, because if they did, they would treat him like a ticking bomb, always ready to go off. That's what happened to him at school, his friends didn't see him the way they used to after he told them.
"Jaime, are you okay?" Nightwing's voice pulled him out of his thoughts.
"Y-Yeah, I think I...I just remembered I forgot something at home, I'll be right back! It'll only take a few minutes..."
Nightwing raised an eyebrow, still unconvinced. Then he said,
"Well, hurry up, and take the opportunity to get your medical records."
"Okay." Jaime mumbled before running towards the zeta tube.
Recognized: Blue Beetle B-22
As he flew towards El Paso out of the zeta tube, Jaime heard the Scarab talking to him.
Why not tell him?
"You know why. If he knows, if the team knows, they won't trust me! They'll think...that I might have seizures during missions, and..."
You have medication, Jaime Reyes. And Nightwing must know. He's the team leader, and you can't hide something like that from him.
"You don't understand!" Jaime said a little louder than he intended. "You weren't there when I told Tye. You didn't see how he acted towards me afterwards. Every moment he would glance at me to see if I was going to break down, a-and I-I..."
Jaime Reyes, you're panicking. Take a deep breath, then exhale.
Jaime took a shaky breath, then groaned.
"I can't take it anymore, ese...Why am I like this? Why did I have to be born like this?"
Jaime...
Jaime jumped slightly. It was the first time the Scarab had called him by his first name only.
Jaime, if you don't want to tell the team, you don't have to. But Nightwing needs to know. Trust me. Everything will be okay.
"Everything will be okay..." Jaime repeated.
He took long, shaky breaths. Then, after a few minutes, he calmed down.
"Thank you, ese. You're truly a friend."
At these words he felt a wave of warmth emanate from his back, and he smiled. Everything would be okay.
And a new chapter is finished! Stay tuned, many more will follow. I have already written the story, and I will update every 1 or 2 weeks. I hope you liked it! REVIEW REVIEW REVIEW! It would really make me happy!
