After talking most of the night with Wally, I went back to my room and rested for a little bit. He made me promise not to tell anyone that I saw him.

Now I'm getting ready for breakfast. I changed into a pair of jeans with a white tshirt and some sandals. I went downstairs and met up with Artemis and Megan. We sat down and talked for a little bit and ate our breakfast. I then excused myself in order to get ready for my date with Dick.

I was on my way to my room only to bump into Barbara Gordon.

"I'm so sorry Barbara! Are you ok?"

"Why don't you watch where you're going loser! Ugh get out of my way before I beat you up!"

I just walked away. I'm in no mood to start drama this early in the Selection.

I reached my room and changed into my black yoga leggings, a baby blue sports bra, and my black Nike shoes. I put a light jacket over my bra and left it open. I didn't remember Dick mentioning a location so I headed out of my room in search of him.

I walked up to the guard that I saw looking at Megan yesterday and asked him for directions to the gym. If Dick told me to wear athletic clothes, then he'd probably be in the gym.

"Hi, I'm Zatanna, can you show me the way to the gym please?"

The raven haired boy simply pointed to his left and said, "Hn."

"Oh, alright thanks."

I followed his directions then found myself in front of the largest gym I ever laid eyes on. I saw the acrobat rings hanging from the ceiling and immediately ran to it.

My hands connected with the rings and I began performing some gymnastic routines. I flipped off and landed on the ground perfectly.

A pair of hands began clapping.

"I guess you know your stuff, huh Zee?"

I turned around to come face to face with Dick.

"Zee? That's a new one."

"Just came up with it. Anyways, where'd you learn to do that?"

"My dad is a magician and a performer, so naturally I would perform some acts as well. Gymnastics and acrobatics were my best and favorite things to do."

"Wow. You really are incredible."

I blushed at that comment, and tried to protest, but I was stopped when I felt a pair of lips on mine. I smiled into the kiss, and we both separated.

"Sorry, I couldn't help myself, you're just so perfect Zee."

"Don't stress, I liked it. Way to be chalant though." I said with a wink.

"This girl is going to be the death of me." he muttered under his breath, but I could still hear him.

"Anyways," he began. "The point of this date was for me to teach you some acrobatic moves and for you to teach me some magic, but I guess you already got the acrobatics down. Also I want to ask you something. Some girls in the Selection have mentioned they saw a red haired guy in the castle. They think he was a trespasser. Have you seen anyone like that?"

"I don't believe so," I said, remembering that Wally didn't want anyone to know he was here.

"Alright, just asking."

"Now as for this date, you can still teach me a few of your moves, and in return I promise to teach you some magic tricks. Deal?"

"Deal."

The date continued on, with lots of kisses as rewards when the other would successfully copy the move or trick taught. Unfortunately, the date soon came to an end.

"I'll see you later Dick."

"Bye Zee."

He leaned in and gave me another kiss.

I then walked out of the gym, not noticing a particular red head hiding behind the door.
