Look My Way

Chapter 1: Looking Hurts

Author's Note: I SHIP TIM DRAKE X CONNER KENT!!! I also shipped Damian Wayne x Dick Grayson and Jason Todd x Roy Harper in this story...Please do not hate!!!

I know the characters base on some of the comics I had read and some of the episodes I had watched. I have no intention to ruin the characters, I love DC!

The T.V. show, Young Justice, was awesome! And they made a new season called Young Justice: The Outsiders!

----------------------------------------------------------------------  

Tim's POV:

I been going to Mount Justice, the main base of the Young Justice team, every day for two weeks just to see him. I wear my Red Robin outfit morning and night now, and I been sleeping less for a while – well less than the usual. I'm not a stalker or a creep. I just care about him to the extent. By "him" I mean Superboy, who goes by Conner Kent or Kon-El.

I never believed in the saying of love at first sight, but when I first saw Conner, I experienced it firsthand. I still remember every second of it. Nightwing was the one who introduced me to The Team when I was still Robin. I greeted everyone with a smile and shook their hands. Until I had to greet Conner. When I shook his hands, I think I forgot how to let go until Nightwing hugs me to announce that I was a new member.

Sadly, I fall harder when I went in missions with him and the team. Sometimes we were partnered up and I took those seconds as a dream come true. The time I spent with him became longer and longer as I visit the base often to the point, I looked like I lived there. I find the man I been looking for on the hallway to the kitchen. Conner stares at the door and it didn't look like he had any intention in going in.

Not wanting to scare him, I stealthily walk behind him and look over to see what he was looking at. Conner hasn't notice me since he has been glaring at the two couples in the kitchen, who are laughing and baking cookies in their own little world. The selfish couples are Megan Morse and Lagoon Boy.

After looking and thinking the couples inside are egotistic, I look at the broken Conner. He looks so sad and defeated. I want to support him and tell him that there is someone else that could love him. That Megan is not the only one that could love him. That the person that could love him more than his first love is just behind him. That the person that loves him the most is me.

I raise my hand to touch Conner and make him know that I am here for him. When my hand is only two inches away from his broad, muscular shoulder, my mindset changes. I start remembering all the failed moments I had tried to make Conner realize that I like him. He always pats me on the head and never realize, or tried to ignore it, which feels worse if I think about it.

Remembering those miserable moments that I am no more than a younger brother to Conner, made me put my hand down to my side. My eyes start to water up as my heart keeps on sinking as I realize I been doing this for two weeks now.

Shouldn't I call it quits?

Haven't I felt this pain for a good amount now?

It's time to let go. I can't stay like this forever. There is more to my life...right?

I slowly and quietly walk backwards to get away from Conner. Tears streams down from my eyes and cheeks. My eyes blurs from the tears but I still look at Conner as I get farther. I quietly ask that I know only I could hear, "Would you ever look my way?"

I turn away from Conner and start walking away from the scene. I'm not giving up on him, but I will not destroy myself or slow down for him. I'm the second smartest person in the world, just after Batman, and I had beaten many villains three or more times my side. This beating, stupid heart of mine is nothing than another experience.

"Stupid heart. Stupid Megan. Stupid Lagoon. Stupid me. Stupid...Conner," I complain as I get to the heart of Mount Justice. The area has a big empty space with pathways going to the other rooms of the mountain. At one of the walls, stations the Zeta-Beam that all the members use teleport to their hometown or wherever they want to go that has another Zeta-Beam to connect.

I walk to the center of the room and stretch my hands in front of me. Hologram screens suddenly pops out in front of me and are in contact to my hands. The screen asks me for a password, and everyone in the team should have it memorize. I type in the password with anger. If the computer was physically there, then I would have created a lot of tapping sounds or could have broken the keys.

There is only rage and envy that is fueling my head as I look for any data about any villains I could track. I repeatably mutter to myself, "Stupid heart! Stupid me! If looking hurts, then stop looking! Stop beating heart!"

Author's Note: This is the first time I write a love story or a boy x boy love. I enjoy writing the story, so I hope you enjoy reading them.

While I was writing this story a question pop in my head for all. Remembernot to hate others' opinions and share away. Who do you ship in the DC Universe?
