I love the Team, I love the YJ! I really do! But, that doesn't mean I need to show it all the time. I've been on the team for about three years now. I also think that everyone on the team is considered a friend or ally. But, Miss Martian ,or M'gnn, I'm pretty sure is the closest thing I have to a bestfriend. She see's past my tough exterior mentally and physically, She knows on the inside I'm a big softey. I ain't going to be acting like one anytime soon. I dont smile often and I DO NOT laugh.
In training they convinced you that it was an unnecessary emotion, that it made you weaker, more vulnerable.
So when the team had funny moments you just sat in your own little corner doing your own thing. If the team had emotional, happy, family moments. I would do the same thing but had a slight smile on my face. Actions like these were rare, and so we're 'family moments' so when they did happen, everyone was both mesmerized and shocked. All the stares made you feel weird so you just walked out the roof and went to the gym to train.
As Christmas came around, M'gnn would encourage me to talk to Garfield more, Idk why.
But it seemed to please her whenever I did so, for Christmas, I'll do it.Garfield seemed to be bummed out for some reason, I walked over and greeted him before I asked him what was wrong.
"I just miss my Mom and Dad, that's all" he said.
"I know how you feel, I guess" I responded.
"At the purgatory, we didn't have holidays or breaks, or traditions. So, this is new for me. This seems very special to alot of people; and if i remembered them, I think I would miss my parents as well." I continued.
Garfield stated at me with wide eyes.
"What?" I asked.
He broke eye contact and said "Sorry, you've never really been that heart-to-heart with me like that before. Thanks for trying ....to............cheer me up?" He trailed off. In the middle of his response I engulfed him into a huge hug. M'gnn, and the whole team saw it go down. The girls were ,well, fangirling and the rest were watching with hanging mouths.
Garfield was blushing alot. He returned the hug but was at a loss for words and couldn't speak right. I released the grip, patted his head, and said "I was told hugs make people feel better, Are you better?"
*nods head slowly*
"Good, Merry Christmas Gar." you said. You downed your drink and walked out of the room nonchalantly.
~~~~~~~~~~~
But after Christmas M'gnn couldn't stop talking about the incident. She would talk to Gar too. Poor guy, I wonder if he feels the same pain I do when she subconsciously 'talks-your-head-off' like I do. Anyway when New Years came around, she sat me down and told me a whole heartbreaking story about Garfield, and what I should do to make him feel better....
*flashback*
"Poor Gar, I feel so bad for him..."
"Why?"
"Around this time of Year, him and his Mother would get together and have special traditions and celebrations, for New Years of course."
"That must be hard I feel bad for him."
"Ya, he's going to be pretty heartbroken during New Years...."
"Is they anyway to make him feel better?"
"No, not really."
"Are you sure?"
"Well,...there is one thing...."
"Well, What is it?"
"The thing is, only you will be able to do it. Because, your more 'calmly-minded' than rest of us."
"OK WHAT IS IT."
"Are your sure your up for it?"
"*sighs* Fine, What is it."
"Well... *whispers into Y/n's ear*"
*flashback end*
It's about to be New Year's and I'm standing next to Garfield.
"5"
"4"
"3"
"2"
"1!!"
"Happy New Years Young Justice", The computer said.
Then everyone grabs a partner."Aww man" Gar sighs.
"Hey Gar?" I ask.
"Yea- MGPH?!" Gar returns.
I put my lips on his, just like M'gnn told me too. This feels so different. I cup my hands around his face and deepen the kiss, it was like instinct. He returns and licks my bottom lip for entry, and I oblige. It felt like an eternity.That was by far, the best day of my life.
