Blue Beetle and Firestorm (Young Justice Fan-Fiction)

4th of July (Chapter 23)

-Jaime POV-

"Okay. Let me get this straight." It was the 4th of July. My parents had finally came back from their little road trip, and gave me permission to spend 4th of July with The Team. But there was one person I need to talk to before i leave. 

"Tiffany, an old friend, shows up out of no where 10 years later, and developed fire abilities over those years. And to add to that, you guys started dating almost 2 months ago?" asked Tye. We haven't hung out for almost the whole summer and I felt like he needed to be caught up on things.

"You know it hermano. Sorry I didn't tell you sooner. Should have told you right away." We stopped and sat on a bench, taking a little break.

"It's all good Jaime. But dude that awesome! You finally found a girl who is okay with all the stuff you do! And you don't have to worry about your secret identity."

"Right! She's cool too. She boards like us. And even knows how to ride a motorcycle. She's different from the rest."

"So when do I get to meet her?"

"You know... I don't know. She's kinda going through a lot right now. When I say she's different essa, she's different. It's a long story." He raised an eyebrow.

"Really? Makes me want to meet her more." I sighed and looked at my phone.

"I'll think about it okay? I gotta go. Going to a 4th of July party. See you around Tye."

"Yeah. See ya later Jaime." I hopped on my board and made my way to the nearest Zeta Tube to Happy Harbor.

When I arrived, I could smell burnt hot dogs and hamburgers. Great. Connor thought he could cook again. I was gonna walk outside when Gar ran right into me, splattering tofu dog all over my shirt.

"Gar! What the hell man? You just got your fake meat all over me!"

The Beast Boy wishes to attack you. I say attack with full force.'

"Okay dude. That really unnecessary."

"Yeah it is!" Said Gar picking up the tofu off the ground. "Because we're going swimming and you can just clean it off your shirt."

"True. Swimming sounds good to me."

I changed into my swim trucks and walked out to the deck where it looked like Tiffany's welcome party. Lights, food, the whole things. Aqualad, and a bunch of other people were swimming in the ocean, playing what looked like a extreme Marco Polo game. On land a bunch of other people hung out on the dock. Some of those people like Tiffany.

My heart fluttered a bit when I saw her. I was use to her wearing dark clothes but today was all different. Sun kissed skin, long dark hair and her mis-colored eyes.  She looked so different in her short and light color shirt. She looked like a goddess. Wow.

She was sitting at a table, talking to Zatanna about who knows what. I walked over to her and stood next to her. Zatanna nodded and gave Tiffany a look. Okay...

"You're not swimming?" She laughed and put her legs on the table, arms behind her head. "When you have fire rushing through out your body, swimming isn't the best option, you think?"

"Come on! Not like you have to use your powers in the water."

"True that. But my answer is still no thanks. Go swim Blue Boy." I chuckled and walked away. "As you say my princess."

-Tiffany POV-

I watched Jaime walk to the edge of the dock and jump off into the water. He surfaces and looked at me to see if I was impressed. I just rolled my eyes and paid attention to what Zatanna was saying to me.
