"Come on! I want to see it, show me please!" I was hanging out with my friend Barbra and she was bugging me again about the batcave. We were sitting in my room working on homework and she wouldn't quit pestering me about it.
"Grrr, fine, okay fine, I'll show you!" I finally caved. So I took her downstairs and we went down the hidden stairs behind the clock.
"Whoa." She said as she looked around.
"So cool! Batman's suit! Aw it's your costume, cute! What's that?" She asked pointing to the suit on the table.
"It's uh just a design I'm working on, thinking of changing things up, you know?"
"Cool, you should show me a few moves."
"Uh..."
"You afraid Greyson?" She teased.
"Oh you are so on!"
...
"God damn, where did you learn to fight?" I asked after Barbra almost beat me.
"My dad's the police commissioner, he wasn't going to have a daughter who couldn't defend herself." She explained.
"Kid Flash B-03" the zeta tube announced. Crap.
I dove behind a table as he walked in.
"Whoa." Barbra said.
"Nice outfit Wally." She said. God Dammit Babs.
"Barbra?" He asked.
"The one and only, so this is what you do with your free time, ha no wonder your so fast." She said as if she didn't already know who he was.
"How did you know it was me? And better yet, why are you in the batcave?"
"For one, your hair, duh, two, I'm friends with Robin." She explained.
"And where is he?"
"He," she giggled a bit, "went to get something to eat, he'll be back in a bit."She told him.
"Hmm, or he's hiding for me, because he's not wearing his mask is he, you know who Robin is don't you!" He exclaimed.
"Now why would you think that?" She countered.
"Your not a hero, but your here, you had to have met his civilian identity."
"Maybe I do know who he is, but that's our business, now leave, you can come back later, Robin and I are busy."
His eyes widened, "oh, busy, okay yeah I'll leave, tell Robin I'll be back later." He smiled awkwardly and left.
I walked out and smacked Barbra on the arm,
"Why didn't you hide! An seriously, could you have pretended you had no idea who he was? Your going to get me in so much trouble!"
"Sorry, but it was kind of funny, I think he thinks we're dating." She laughed. I started laughing too.
"Sorry I love you Babs but I don't swing that way."
"It's okay, I'll live, I'll just pine for you for the rest of eternity." She mock sighed dramatically.
"Babs, I have a problem."
"What is is?"
"I think I love him."
