Friends ask for food when they come to your house. Best friends are the reason you have no food

Robin's eyes slowly flicked all over the empty room, the darkness enveloping him as he snuck into the kitchen. He climbed down from the rafters and strolled quietly over to the counters and climbed on top of them, reaching for the highest handle. 

Recently, he had brought Alfred's famous cookies into the cave and he had stored the left over ones in a secret compartment so no one could eat them while he was in Gotham. Popping it open he leaned in... To find it completely empty with the small container, cookie less with only a few crumbs sitting at the bottom. 

And the real knife to his heart was the small sticky note on the top. Thanks for the cookies Rob! They were great. To bad you couldn't eat any of them:) - Wallman

"Wally." A low growl came from the back of his throat as he went to go plan the speedster's funeral.

Friends will ask if you're okay. Best friends will pin you to the ground until you spill why you aren't 110% crazy like usual.

The hallway from the rooms to the kitchen wasn't a long one, but it was long enough for Zatanna to see that Artemis wasn't happy. Artemis wasn't usually the happy, cheery type, but she was more down than usual.

"Arty..."

"Nothing's wrong okay?"

"Then why did you know that was what I was going to ask?"

Artemis frowned at her, the grimace spreading across her features.

Smirking, Zatanna spun quickly in front of her and judo flipped Artemis down to the ground and pinned her in a chokehold. "TELL ME!"

Artemis relaxed in her grip when she realized she could easily get out of it. But she couldn't as easily get out of Zatanna's questions.

"Fine."

Friends will ask for permission to use your phone. Best friends will steal your phone and figure out your password so they can change it.

As the Zeta Beams mixed his molecules to transport him from Central to the Mountain, Wally's gaze was fixed onto his phone.

"Die. Die. Die. Die piggy, die."

"Whatcha doing?" Wally screamed as is best friend in the form of a ninja asked from above him. His eyes went quickly back to the screen and yelled in frustration when he saw that in his fright he messed up the game.

"Bro! You killed me!"

"This wouldn't be the first time. Explain." Robin flipped from down the rafters and landed in a crouch then flipped into criss cross applesauce format.

"I was playing Angry Birds and you just decided to jump down and mess me up!" Wally, thinking this was a very valid reason to be mad, crossed his arms and glared. Robin kept his composure for about three seconds and then the laughing started.

The indigence on Wally's face grew more and more as the cackling slowly stopped.

"Seriously, dude? Okay then. Hey, I have an idea. Gimme your phone and I can hack into it to make it look like you passed the level okay."

Robin sighed when he saw tears welling up in Wally's eyes. "You would do that... for me?"

"Sure, Kid Mouth. Hand it over." Palm up, Robin asked for the device and quickly disappeared into the shadows with the Boy Wonder. 

(27.5 Minutes later)

"ROB!" Wally's voice with more volume then usual echoed across the cave. 

Superboy leaned up and glared from where he had been bench pressing a few couple hundred pounds. 

"WHAT?"

M'gann lurched up in surprise and almost spilled batter all over Wolf who was laying at her feet, watching her make the cookies. 

"DID YOU CHANGE MY PASSWORD?"

Aqualad just sighed from his position in the pool and sunk down deeper. 

"MAYBE." 

And Artemis couldn't care less, with her wearing headphones and all. 

"CHANGE IT BACK."

Zatanna strolled up from her position on her bed, practicing spells and was met by Superboy and M'gann in the area right between the rooms. 

"DON'T WANNA."

Friends will be mad at you for pranking them. Best friends will congratulate you for finally doing it and give them some pointers.

"WALLY!" The archer's yell tore though the Cave, shocking everyone from their previous activities. 

"WHAT DID I DO THIS TIME." 

"YOU KNOW WHAT YOU DID!"

"NO I DON'T, I'M AN IDIOT REMEMBER!"

"YOU. PUT. GREEN. SLIME. ON. EVERYTHING." And every time she paused, the Team flinched as if bombs were going of. One. After. Another. 

"WASN'T ME. ASK ROB."

"ALREADY POUNDED HIM INTO THE GROUND. WASN'T HIM."

"WASN'T ME OKAY! ASK M'GANN!"

"M'GANN'S TO SWEET -- WAIT. M'GANN! DID YOU DO IT?"

Everyone turned to look at the blushing Martian. "Umm, no?"

"YOU DID DO IT!" Pounding footsteps came into the main room of the Cave. Archer glared M'gann, then a bright smile lit up her face. 

"I'M SO PROUD OF YOU!"

Everyone stared in shock as Artemis pulled a freaked out M'gann to the side giving her pointers on how to fix her technique.
