WARNING: THIS CHAPTER IS VEEY LONG

.12.31.2010.

Wally had never been more nervous in his life. There was the time he had to present in class, when he went on extremely dangerous missions and even when he first met Dick but nothing could compare to now.

He was going to ask him out.

At his own dinner party.

Why did he think of this? Well let's backtrack to when this first came up.

.A Week Earlier.

"Why are you moping?" Artemis and Wally were alone in the mountain.

"No reason." Wally said sadly.

Artemis thought for a moment before she came to a realization. "Boy troubles."

"What!? How'd you know?" Wally sat up and stared at her.

"Just a guess, so what's up with you and Boy Wonder?" She asked sitting down next to him.

"Why Robin?" Wally asked.

"Have you seen the way you look at him. It's crazy he isn't noticed because you're always staring." She raised an eyebrow at him.

"That obvious?" Wally groaned.

"Sad to say bud." Artemis patted his back before laughing a little.

"This is not a funny situation." He playfully slapped Artemis.

"Kinda is." Artemis slapped him back. "What is it though."

"I was going to ask him out." He mumbled first.

"You were going to what?" Artemis didn't hear him.

"Ask him out." Wally mumbled again.

"A little louder." Artemis heard him that time.

"I'm going to ask Dick Grayson out!" He yelled out and Artemis burst into a fit of laughter.

"I know, just wanted you to say that out loud." Artemis laughed watching Wally's face turn red with embarrassment.

"Anyway," She wiped a tear from her eye. "When do you plan on doing this?"

"I dunno that's the problem." He threw his head back with an exasperated sigh.

You don't know when to ask him out?" Artemis gave him a judgmental look.

Wally nodded then frowned even harder while Artemis began to think.

Finally a lightbulb turned on in her head. "The New Years Party."

"What about it?" Wally turned to her.

"God you're stupid." She massaged her nose. "Ask him out at the party, dumbass."

He thought about it for a moment.

"Wow that's actually smart." He got up. "Thanks Arty." Then he ran off.

And that's how he got here.
