She frantically walked around the hallways in hopes of finding somebody. She entered the lounge and headed straight for her red head friend. He saw her coming and a look of dread washed over his smile, although she failed to notice.

"Hey, sparkie!" She elongated the last syllable "you know, for tonight's party..." She had her big puppy eyes

"Yeah..?" Asked 'Sparkie' while looking around for an escape route

"You know how my mother is, right? Well, I thought that-"

"Oh! You see, it's hmm... I'm, kinda already, you know... Going with..." He frantically looked around, completely drawing a blank

"With me" came a familiar voice

The two conversing teens turned to see at the owner of the voice. Saturn Girl stood there, smiling her usual smile with her hands holding a small board. She winked at Garth who blushed and continued his "sentence"

"Um, yeah! Sorry Tinya, maybe you could ask Clark, or Chuck?" Not two nanoseconds after, he and his "date" disappeared.

The ebony haired girl flopped down, rather unceremoniously, unto one of the chairs. She started twirling her wavy hair. She heard the doors open and turned to see her superman, the only person who could save hr from a terrible fate "Supey!" She all but screamed which made the kryptonian wince. She flew towards him and hugged him.

"I reallly need your help!" She said, using her acting talents to convince the boy this was a life or death situation

"What? What is is?" He replied urgently

"I need somebody to accompany me to the party tonight!"

"Why? Afraid coming alone would hurt your rep?" He poked her nose playfully

She knew he wasn't being mean, but this was the perfect opportunity for a guilt trip. After all, he was the perfect date, albeit too much like a farm boy. She turned around and started to cry "Is that what you think of me?" She added sniffing and stuttering for good measure

She could feel him tense up. Poor boy scout, he was too nice for his own good. He started stuttering apologies and trying to comfort her. She turned around rubbing her eyes for effect, which worked.

"Aw shucks, Tinya I wish I could take you, really I do, but" he rubbed the back of his neck "I gotta help with patrolling, why don't you ask" he squinted as a normal person would and looked around "Timberwolf?"

She heard a muffled "no!" From behind the door, which opened immediately after. "I will not accompany HER to any party, especially not after you lied, Mr. Boy Scout" he smirked and went to lean on a pillar to read.

She looked back to where Superman should have been but wasn't. "How'd you know he lied?" She turned around to Brin

For once, he wasn't wearing his uniform: he had opted for civilian wear. Although the clothes were used, they looked not half bad. A very slim black tee shirt with ripped and faded denim slacks, and sandals for his big feet.

"I smelt it." Was the curt reply

"Hey, I-" "No" he pushed himself from the pillar using his back muscles, put his bool into his back pocket and started toward the main stairs that led outside. It just so happened he needed to walk past Tinya to get there.

She stepped in front of him. "Oh please, you didn't" "even know what you were about to say? Yes, I did"

He stepped to the right, but she stopped him "Wait!" She paused for thought "come with me, pleeaaase?"

Brin snorted "Oh please, we both know neither of us want to go with the other" he was about to walk, but she talked again.

"It's not that I don't want to go wi-" he slammed his hand next to her head, almost caging her in. He brought his lupine face closer to hers. She was so afraid she forgot she could just phase out. "Don't. Ever. Lie. To me" he said in a low and rough voice. He dropped his arm and was about to leave, but Tinya didn't take well to being bullied. She levitated a few inches off the floors to meet him eye-to-eye "Don't you talk to me like that or-" "or what?"

This time, he really did cage in, and she was frightened. He brought his face close to hers and she whimpered. He stopped. His face had an odd expression: a mix of disgust and something forlorn. "What was that?" He asked angrily "w-what?" She replied surprised

"Why'd you make that noise? Did you think I was going to hurt you?" He was really angry now

"We-" "like an animal!?" He looked pained "or maybe you thought I was going to do something beastly!" His eyes had a dark glint. A glint that made his crimson eyes look richer.

Before she could say, or do anything, he had her completely against the wall. She could feel the coldness of the wall and the heat from his sculpted torso. She turned her head to the side and her breath started to increase in speed. He started licking her neck, sometimes bitting gently into her plump flesh. He lowered to her collard bone; where he suckled and left a mark. She moaned and he immediately took a step back. Not in fear or disgust of himself, but in satisfaction "and people think I'M an animal" he looked utterly disgusted now. He left her, still gasping for more...
