A/N: Wow its been over a year but I'm back. I enjoyed Young Justice season 3.
My writing is really rusty, I was so excited that I was able to get on here I wanted to post something. Its short and sweet.
This ended up less funny then I wanted and I didnt realized the previous chapter was a Batman chapter..whoops. I hope you enjoy. Hopefully once I get in the groove of things again it will get better!
Chapter 15: Batman's Date Night
Three Words
Mount Justice
It was a typical dreary fall day at Happy Harbor. The once bright sun and blue sky was replaced with thick grey clouds, the lively trees were now bare and shaking with the cold breeze, the leaves scattered across the ground. Thanksgiving had come and pass without incident each teen were able to spend the holiday with their families. The break was relaxing but brief for soon the Dark Knight had assigned them missions. The team had just finished their latest mission and had returned to the base. Batman awaited them in the lobby.
"Excellent work. Your recon mission was a success. Now the League can use the intel to take the next step" the Dark Knight informed them.
"We were glad to be of assistance, as always" Kaldur replied calmly as the team nodded.
"You are dismissed. Robin, if you could stay a moment" the Dark Knight requested.
The teens exchanged glances and Robin gave the others a confident grin. "See you guys in a few. I promise I'm not in trouble" The others shook their hands and smiled at the Boy Wonder's remark before leaving the lobby to the living room for their game of Three Words. It had been weeks since they had done it and the teens had agreed that it was long overdue.
"I'm not in trouble am I?" Dick inquired arching a hidden eyebrow at his mentor.
"No. I just wanted to let you know that there will be no patrol tonight" Bruce replied.
"What? No patrol?" Dick feigned shock and grinned. "What's so important not to patrol? Don't tell me it's not a charity ball! Especially one that we both have to attend cause I can't ditch game night!" Dick rambled and groaned.
The Dark Knight gazed at his protege solemnly."No not a charity ball...but a date"
Dick gazed at Bruce for a moment then burst out laughing, his signature laugh rang out within the vast lobby. Dick had to cover his mouth with both gloved hands, his body shaking. His laughter slowly died down at the Dark Knight's almost Bat glare at him. Once Dick had calmed down and lowered his hands Bruce continued.
"I will have Alfred notify you if something does come up understood?"
"Got it!" the Boy Wonder responded with a cheeky grin. "Good luck on the date!"
Dick then made his way to the living room where the others sat munching on various snacks and chatting amongst themselves. They immediately noticed the upbeat bounce in Dick's steps and the amused grin he usually had when he knew something.
"What's going on?" Wally asked his best friend. He tapped his foot impatiently.
Robin laughed and grinned. "You won't believe me if I told you"
"Come on dude, tell us!" Wally insisted wanting to know the juicy details.
Dick laughed again throwing his back. The others glanced at another. What could it be that was making Dick unable to speak.
"B-Batman has a date!" Dick managed to say at last.
"Seriously?" Wally exclaimed then laughed alongside his best friend. The two continued to laugh while the others glanced at another then shook their heads.
"I think that's sweet" M'gann responded and smiled glancing at Conner.
"Yeah, I wished some people took date nights seriously" Artemis added, giving Wally a look.
Once Dick and Wally had calmed down from their laughing fit, Kaldur began to speak.
"It has been awhile since we have done Three Words. Do we have any suggestions on who or what the topic should be?"
"Batman has a date! That should be the topic!" Dick exclaimed with a grin.
"I second that!" Wally added his support.
"Any objections?" Kaldur inquired to Artemis, Conner, and M'gann.
"It's better than what I would come up with" Conner answered with a shrug of his shoulders.
Artemis and M'gann nodded in assent and made themselves comfortable.
"Then let us begin" Kaldur responded with a smile. "Robin, care to start us off?"
" I would be a little underwhelmed if I couldn't start this one" Dick replied excitedly then cleared his throat.
"One night Batman"
"Was fighting crime" Kaldur added uncertainty but smiled.
"When he saw" Conner added leaning back in his seat.
"Does Batman even have any love interests?" Artemis inquired snuggling against Wally.
Dick grinned, hands behind his head. "Batman would kill me if I told you."
"It makes you wonder doesn't it? Do you think he'd be less grumpy?" M'gann giggled and cuddled against Conner.
"Probably not Babe" Conner replied and the others chuckled and shook their heads.
"A mysterious female" M'gann replied smiling.
"Who liked to" Artemis continued.
"Steal and wore" Wally went next munching on a protein bar.
"A catsuit. She " Dick continued and then covered his mouth again laughing softly.
"Was agile and" Kaldur said thoughtfully.
"Snarky. One night" Conner went on and reached for a drink.
"Batman was chasing" M'gann added.
"Her when she" Artemis continued.
"Stopped and turned" Wally spoke with a mouth full of protein bar.
"Demanding a date." Dick laughed and grinned kicking his feet up on the coffee table.
"She inquired for"
"A Batastic dinner"
"On the rooftop"
"Where the Bat"
"Signal was located."
"So Batman agreed"
"And made a"
"Bat meal for"
"Two. He managed"
"To get a"
"Round table with"
"Flowers and placed"
"The meal down."
"There was dessert"
"As well. It"
"Was Bat Cookies!" The team erupted into laughter. Dick held his sides as he laughed, Artemis and Wally clung to each other, Conner shook his head laughing as M'gann giggled into his shoulder. Kaldur also shook his head amusingly and smiled.
"The catsuit female" Dick continued grinning.
"Was impressed by" Kaldur followed.
"Batman's batastic cooking" Conner went after the team leader.
"And baking skills" M'gann added happily, clapping her hands in delight, for she enjoyed cooking and baking as well.
"Batman was still" Artemis smiled and stretched out on Wally.
"Serious. He kept" Wally grinned.
"Asking how the"
"Food was. The"
"Two discussed their"
"Views on crime"
"Then they did"
"A Bat dance"
"On the rooftop"
"With the Bat"
"Signal lighting the"
"Night sky. The"
"Two ended the"
"Night with a"
"Batastic kiss before"
"The two hopped"
"Into the Batmobile"
"And drove away"
"Into the night"
"That's so cute! Batman deserves a good ending!" M'gann commented happily. "I suppose there could be worse date nights" Artemis added and nudged Wally who winced and made a
face at her. "Hey I can take you anywhere in the world within seconds!" The others laughed as the couple bickered for a few minutes more.
"It was quite nice to do Three Words again" Kaldur spoke with a smile.
"Yes we must continue our game" M'gann agreed.
"Then let's make it happen" Conner replied nodding. The others nodded in agreement.
Again it's definitely not my best. Feel free to leave comment. Should I add season 2 and 3 characters?
