Only a Flash Wound

Big Mistake

Once Bruce and Wally finished there jobs, Wally came back from Central City to Gotham so that he and Bruce could go to the Watch Tower together like they always do. Once there, already dressed in the Flash suit and Batman was waiting outside for him, greeting him with a warm smile only meant for him. Wally smiled back as he approached the secret entrance to the bat cave. "I didn't think bat's were supposed to like water." Flash quipped, knowing there routine and understood that they had to keep their personal life/relationship and their work separate. It didn't matter so much in the watch tower, the bat cave or when Flash would take them somewhere with his speed just so they could share a kiss and be back before anyone could even blink, however whenever they were in the open like this they had to make it seem like there relationship status hadn't changed. For all anyone knew, this was just a random waterfall that had no significance whatsoever. "Why did you want to meet at a waterfall anyway? Seems a bit random, even for you bats." Flash joked with a playful smile and giddy attitude, energetic as always. Not being able to keep still, it's what everyone knew about the Flash, it's what people knew about Wally West, he was surprised that no one could figure out he was Flash considering he doesn't change his voice, and their personalities are identical. In fact, if ether of them were to sit still, then there would be cause for concern.

As always, Batman ignored Flash and his playful attitude, not giving him anything past a huff for an answer. "We need to go or we will be late." Batman stated matter of factly, as he began to walk away from the waterfall with Flash hot on his hills.

Flash was in front of him in seconds, but before he could say anything he felt some kind of zap or sting to the back of his neck. He reached up to see what it was, thinking that maybe it was a bee or wasp, but when he reached up and felt something, he was certain it was a bee sting. So, he grabbed hold and pulled it out. "Flash, are you all right?"

Looking up to meet his eyes and smiled awkwardly realising how that must have looked. "Yeah, cause I am! Just a bee sting." Flash stated as he showed Batman the stinger.

"Can you give that to me?" Batman asked as he held out his hand expectantly.

"Uhhh, sure." Flash replied, honestly a little confused but he wasn't about to deny his boyfriend who was obviously concerned despite the fact he was keeping his emotions at bay.

Batman took it onto his own hand and gave it a quick one over but couldn't see any reason to disagree with Flash that it was a bee. Although, Batman couldn't figure out how the bee managed to sting him considering how quickly Flash had moved. Sure, Flash could have ran into the poor thing, but the speed in which he would have hit it, probably would have killed the thing, so it wouldn't have been able to sting him. Even if the hit hadn't killed it, it would have definitely knocked it out, so there's no logical way in which the bee could have found an opportunity to sting him, even by accident. No, Bruce didn't like this, there was something not quite right about it, so he took out an investigation bag and placed the stinger inside, marking it as 'suspicious stinger' before placing it in his pocket. Batman looked up at Flash's puzzled expression and felt he should explain. "Just in case."

"In case of what? It's a bee sting, I've had plenty in my life and I'll more then likely have plenty more, and I'm not allergic to them, so why bother?" Flashed inquired playfully.

"You forget your speed." Batman stated in a board tone.

"What's that supposed to mean exactly?" Flash insisted with a raised eyebrow and crossed arms.

"It means that you should trust my judgment as I have my reasons for doing things." Batman snapped with annoyance. Wally doesn't quite know why, but that hurt. Batman has snapped at him many times, both before and after they were in a relationship, he knew full well that this was just Bruce keeping appearances up till they got to the tower, where Bruce would undoubtedly apologies, hug him, then give him a soft kiss on the lips with a smile to match. However, this actually made Wally flinch, made him sad, and he couldn't figure out why. Maybe there was something to this bee sting after all...

Wally shock his head, he'd tell Bruce when it was safe to, so he tried to smile but it came out forced and somewhat broken, which didn't go unnoticed. "Let's just go." Flash sounded tiered, what was going on?? "Don't want to be late." He breathed with a sigh, and continue to walk next to Batman in silence, and calmly. Almost like he just didn't have the energy for it, which now caused Bruce's alarm bells to start ringing. There was something to this bee sting now! Bruce was sure of it, but he couldn't make a scene, not yet anyway. Once at a specific location they got beamed up into the tower, but in all that time they were both worring about Wally, they didn't notice that someone had been watching them, and smiled menacingly when they got beamed up.

The mysterious character pulled out a phone and spoke. "Yes, it's done."

"Perfect. Get ready for phase two." The person on the other end of the phone chucked.

"Yes sir!" He responded before putting the phone down.

There he sat, in front of a monitor, flicking it on with a wide, Chester cat like smile plastered on his face. Knowing his game, was now in play. "Well, well, well, this is going to be interestedly ay Batzy. Hehe. Hahaha! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
