"I was rather cold last night." Wally starts. "You didn't hold onto me, like I thought you would." He adds, complaining.

The couple are walking the streets of Gotham on a beautiful sunny day. Which is why they decided to go out.

"I was asleep, Wally." Dick defends.

"And I could've sworn you left me, I waited for you to return but I must've fell asleep."

"I did. I went out for a walk. I was in darkness for a while in that tower, no light, no air, no space. I needed it." Dick sucks up to him.

"I understand, Dick." Wally pauses to gaze into Dick. But Dick pulled away quickly and continued walking.

"You know, you could have at least woke me up. We could've gone out together."

"I didn't want to wake you, I mean you did spend that entire day rescuing me." Dick smiled fakely at Wally.

"But to say no on going out with the most amazing guy in entire universe on a mysterious night?" Wally tickles Dick. "You should know me better, babe."

Dick faked his smile once more, and fell silent.

"So, you still need to explain to me about the ribbon I used to wrap your present." Dick's words made Wally blush. "You kept it, that was so sweet of you."

"Yeah, I did. I needed something that would have reminded me of you, something to keep me going, down in the underworld." Wally admits.

"Do you still have it?" Dick questions.

"Of course I do! When Rumpelstiltskin had given it to Batman, I took it from him." Wally answers.

"Where would you keep it?" Dick asks cheerfully.

"Why right here of course." Wally pulls it out of his pocket revealing the blue ribbon.

"Wally, you're so adorable." Dick giggles.

Wally leans in for a kiss but Dick hesitates, it took a moment before they did and it only lasted for about two seconds. That was fastes kiss currently on record.

Wally ignored it, he thought he was a little too fast. Wally's affection was too quick on Dick right after was rescued.

Wally and Dick arrive at Gotham beach. The sun was dancing in the sky, waves were crashing, kids chirping as they play. The perfect place to be right after a crisis. They sit on a bed of sand and relaxed.

"So Dick, what did Rumpelstiltskin do to you?" Wally started a new conversation.

"He just put me in that dark room, didn't really do much actually." Dick answered defending Rumpel.

"That's it, he just put you in that room. Why couldn't you escape?" Wally asked.

Dick sighed. "You think I didn't try that." He replied with attitude. "The man can bloody teleport with a click of his fingers. It took me a solid 15 minutes to find my way out of that fortress, but it only took him two seconds for him to get to me, and half of that time to teleport me back to that prison room."

Wally fell silent, he wondered why a man like Rumpel with so much power do nothing to his prisoners not to mention make it so easy to rescue them.

Dick stared widely at Wally. "What?"

Dick blurts. "Your face looks exactly like Bruce's after I told him this." Wally laughs.

Dick took the ribbon off of Wally's hand and returned it to Wally's behind pocket, although Wally thinks he did. "Here, this is much better." He squeezes Wally's behind. "MMmm, I like where this is going." Wally whispers as Dick leans right beside Wally's face.
