Chapter 3-First Dates

New Years is a special day for people across the world. For some people it means a new start, something new to look forward to, or even just a new goal to accomplish. Even superheroes find this day special. However for a certain blonde archer New Years was special for a different reason. January 1st marks the day of her first kiss with Wally, her fellow teammate she has feelings for. They have been in denial for a long time and the kiss made them realize they care deeply for each other.

After the kiss the team went back to Mount Justice to celebrate a new year and their recent success against the Light. Wally and Artemis were awkward around each other at first, not knowing how to respond to the kiss they shared earlier. Finally Artemis decided enough was enough and broke awkwardness by simply changing the subject.

It didn't take long for them to be engrossed in an engaging conversation. The topic ranged from anything and everything.  The rest of the team couldn't help but look at them with a knowing smile. They were the last to know they liked each other, the rest of the team was just waiting for them to realize. The team even betted on when it would happen. Naturally Robin started it seeing as how Wally was his best friend. Kaldur and Conner said sometime during Christmas. Zatanna as well as Rocket betted it would be around Valentine's Day while Robin and Megan said either New Year's or sometime during the month of January.

While the lovebirds were chatting endlessly (more like flirting), Robin and M'gann went around the room collecting their money from the rest of their teammates. "Pay up" Robin said smirking at Zatanna. She scowled and pulled the money from her pocket mumbling incoherently. The rest of the young justice team had similar reactions.

Meanwhile Artemis and Wally were talking about their likes and dislikes. It came as a shock to them that they had so much in common.

"Favorite breakfast food?" Artemis asked him. He raised an eyebrow at the weird question but answered it anyway. "Waffles. You?" She rested her head on his shoulder. "Same" They stayed quiet for a while, talking for a long time has its effects. Wally was debating on weather on not he should put his arm around her. 'What if she doesn't like me like that'. His conscious nearly slapped him mentally. "Did she or did she not kiss you back at the watchtower?" he sighed. And without eve thinking he wrapped his arm around her small waist. He thought she would react negatively. However she snuggled deeper into his shoulder making them both smile.

"I really like you Baywatch" Artemis told him looking up to meet his eyes. His sparkling green ones meeting met stunning grey eyes. For the first time since he met her Artemis let out a genuine smile. "I really like you too Arty" Wally said smiling as well. They leaned in for a kiss obvious to the team around them taking pictures and squealing. According to Zatanna, Wally and Artemis were her favorite ship, whatever that meant. The couple looked at her oddly before resuming their kiss.

They pulled apart breathless. "Do you want to go out with me?" He managed to say with what little breath he had left. They kiss was spectacular, they were fireworks everywhere and not to mention they were making out for a long period of time. Seriously it was a really long time Robin went to make sure they were still breathing before looking away in disgust. 

Artemis decided actions speak better than words as she pulled him in for another kiss. "So what's your answer?" Wally asked trying to be sly. Artemis rolled her eyes at his words. Nevertheless she brought him in for another passionate kiss.

The rest of the party was rather boring and uneventful. Megan brought everybody into the living room to watch a movie. After a few suggestions they finally agreed on the Disney movie Wreck It Ralph. However none of them stayed awake long enough to finish the film. Zatanna fell asleep next to her. Robin who was still awake when she went to sleep seeing as how she was the first one to sleep, put a blanket over her shoulders. Megan fell asleep with her head on Conner's shoulder. They fell asleep shortly after Zatanna. Rocket and Aqualad fell asleep holding hands. Dick was the last one to fall asleep due to his long nights out in Gotham with Batman. He saw the two figures sleeping. He saw how Artemis was curled up into Wally's side with him pulling her closer. Robin smiled at their affection. All he could think was 'I knew they would get together' before falling asleep as well. The cave was silent for the first time since they occupied it, the only sound was the background of the TV and the occasional snore.
