Chapter 3

During lunch the next day at Gotham Academy, Dick was cornered by Artemis Crock. "So I hear you are friends with Wally?"

Though he was screaming on the inside, Dick simply nodded. "Your name is Artemis, right? And Wally West? Yeah, his uncle is a friend of Bruce's. We hang out from time to time." Try practically every evening, when we go to a mountain and battle bad guys with you. "How do you know him? He isn't even from this city." He tried turning the tables on her, but she only brushed it off.

"We frequent the same areas. Listen, I know about you two." When all Artemis received was a polite yet confused look, she started to get annoyed. "About how you are dating!" When Dick started laughing, she frowned. "Look, you don't have a girlfriend, it's reasonable!"

"What would you say if I told you I have a girlfriend!" Artemis started to get a sinking feeling. Maybe the Kid Idiot was telling the truth? She tried to ignore her inner doubts and told the younger boy to bring his supposed girlfriend to meet her afterschool.

Dick raced away as soon as he could. How was he supposed to find a fake girlfriend in less than four hours? Inspiration struck when he saw a flash of auburn hair. "Barbara!" Dick grabbed the elbow of his older friend. "Barbara, I need you to be my girlfriend." He couldn't help but smirk inside as her face flushed a deep red.

"What?" He quickly clarified that it was a fake girlfriend and saw her face droop a little. He begged and wheedled, but finally got the answer he was looking for. "But Dick, you have to do me a favour, too. Get Bruce to take me off the list for the next charity ball thingy he throws. Those are boring as heck." He sighed, but promised nonetheless.

After school let out, Dick led Barbara to the courtyard where Artemis was impatiently waiting. He smirked at the blond archer. "I don't think she's your girlfriend. I know you are just friends," Artemis argued. To her dismay, Barbara grabbed the front of Dick's shirt and kissed him. "Oh."

She apologized to them both, and then ran off. She had a certain redheaded idiot she needed to apologize to.

LINE/BREAK/LINE/BROKENLINE

Artemis started yelling for Wally the minute she entered the Cave. He skidded to a stop in front of her seconds later. "Hey, I have been looking for you! Listen, I have to talk to you about yesterday-" Wally started to say.

Artemis interrupted him. "Me too! I wanted to tell you-"

"I found a way to prove it to you!" Wally said excitedly. Artemis blinked at him, annoyed that he was missing the point. "Here," he said, leaning closer to her.

Artemis gave a small gasp as he kissed her, but then responded eagerly. When she finally pulled away to take a breath, Wally spoke. "I'm not gay."

"And I'm suddenly really glad that you're not dating Dick."

"Purely Platonic," he whispered, and pulled her into another kiss.
