I put the last ball from dodgeball away. Coach Stone walks out his office. "Thanks for cleaning all that up. See you tomorrow." I grab my backpack and leave the gym. Walking through the crowded halls I made it to my locker sadly Allison is there waiting for me. "Blake, Blake, Blake. I understand you are Jon's little sister but, what bothers me is that the two of you are not related in no shape or form. I'm going to give you this one little warning. Stay away from Jon, he's mine." I look at her flabbergasted and confused. "I only see him as my brother, nothing more." I tell her. "Blake, there you are. I couldn't find you in the gym, oh hey Allison. Blake we gotta go we have that party to go too." Allison pops into our conversation. "A pastry? Can I join?" Jon hesitates. "Sorry Allison it's a private event with family and friends only. See you tomorrow though for the project, right?" She nods. I pull out a few books from my locker that needs to go back to the library. "I need to return these books." I slam my locker and walk away with my brother. I look back at Allison who gave me an angry look.

"Mi amor you made it! And you look...wow." I wear black tight suspender shorts with a white crop-top underneath. I blush smiling. "Thank you!" Mom giggles patting Jaime's shoulder. "She dressed up for, she was hoping you would like it. We were stuck in her room for hours trying to help her." My whole face heats. "Mom!" She walks off with dad giggling again. "So, you dressed up for me?" I blush nodding. He chuckles taking my hand and twirling me. "You look gorgeous mi amor." Someone clear their throat startling us. "Uncle Connor!" I say happily. Jaime lets go of me quickly, M'gann pulls him away. "Come on let them have fun." Jaime takes my hand smiling. We're at the Wayne manor Dick is hosting game night. I'm surprised uncle Bruce agreed to a game night at his place. I follow close to Jaime happily into the kitchen where all the snacks and drinks are. "How was school for you?" I grab a paper plate and pour some chips. "School is ok. There's this girl, she likes Jon, a lot but, she doesn't like me very much." Jaime and I are startled when Jason squeezes between us. "What you two talking about?" I look at Jaime and he shrugs. "School." I tell him and grab a slice of pizza. Barbara rolls over to grab his hand. "Jason stop they're talking, leave them alone. You too Dick I know you're hiding behind the counter." Dick groans getting off the floor. "Come on you two." We watch then leave and we laugh. "They guys are crazy about you. Speaking of which, has any boys try to talk to you or anything?" I shake my head. "I always avoid them. They make me uncomfortable." He chuckles. "Do I make you uncomfortable." He stands extra close to me our foreheads almost touching. "Jaime." I say almost under a whisper, I whimper when his body press against mine. My hands go to his chest, one hand go to my waist while his other rest on the edge of the counter. "Do I?" "No." I say breathlessly. "Jaime I-" we separate from each other when dad bust through the door. "Hey you two were waiting for the both of you." I blush. "Sorry." I grab my plate and walk out the kitchen to the game room. Jaime sits next to me and the party begins.

"Ha! Reverse!" Dick slams his reverse card down, Jason rolls his eyes as we watch Dick put a regular card down. Barry smiles slamming a card down "draw 2 Bruce!" Uncle Barry seems to be enjoying himself, next is my turn. I didn't have the color or the number to match it but, I did have a draw 4 but that would mean Jaime would have to draw 4. "Sorry." I set my draw 4 card down and he grabs a few cards. "It's all good, it's just a game Blake don't apologize." Jason startles us with his out burst. "Stop  looking at my cards you cheat!" Dick rolls his eyes. "They wouldn't be easy to look at if you keep them turnt facing you." Damien sets a card down and the circle continues. Jaime scoots closer to me, I look up at him and he smiles. I began to lean on to rest my head when heat vision pass between us. "Jon!" Mom snaps at him Damien laugh. "Not too close." Mom shakes her head. "You're acting like your father." Dad high fives him and mom rolls her eyes. Bart sets a card down laughing. "You almost got your face split open dude." Jaime laughs nervously. "Yeah." I cough a few then they become more aggressive. "Mi amor where's your inhaler?" I frantically check my pockets and panic. "I...I d-don't have it." I begin wheezing, dad gets up but, Bart stops him. "I'll go, just tell me where it's at." I tell him where the inhaler could be and speeds out. Jaime takes my hands rubbing them. "Look at me, you need to breath, just breath. Breath with me." I breath with him slowly his forehead press against mine and my breathing is a little better but I still need my inhaler. "That's it." "Got it!" Bart hands me my inhaler and I inhale a few times. "Thank you." Bart nods. Dad looks at Jaime and smiles at him with a nod. I guess dad approves of him. "Back to the game!" Barbara says excitedly then sets a card down. "Uno!" The game becomes tense. I set my cards down and go back to the kitchen to grab a soda. "Jaime!" He smiles. "Did I scare you?" I blush. "A little." He walks closer. "How is your breathing?" I nod. "It's better. We should get back before dad interrupts." He grabs my hand. "I actually wanted to talk to you about earlier before the game. What we're going to tell me before we were interrupted?" Should I tell him? No I can't he would reject me. "It's nothing, it doesn't matter anymore. Jaime!" I gasp when he pulls me into him. "What were you going to say?" He inches closer. "I..." his lips lightly brush against mine. "I..." his hand inch up to my face. "Jaime I-I..." I fist his shirt. He goes to my neck and gently kiss my neck, his hands go to my waist. "Both of you!" Jaime quickly lets go of me. "We weren't do anything!" Bart laughs. "Gotcha! You thought I was Clark. What are you two doing? Also Barbara won. We're about to start a new game if you're interested but it looks like you two are interested in something else." I step away from Jaime blushing. "We're just friends." I blurt. I look over at Jaime and his mood changes. Bart looks between us wincing. I reach for Jaime but he moves away. "Let's get back to the party." Did I do something wrong?
