Chapter four: Skid (Tuesday)

Robin realizes that he's in love with his best friend and decides to do something about it.

Don't own anything but the mistakes.


The quickest way to a man's heart is through his stomach right? Right? This better work. Dick stood in the middle of the kitchen at Mount Justice. He looked down at himself, he was covered in flour and chocolate; unsure as to how it got there in the first place. The timer on the oven went off; the moment Dick sat the brownies on the counter, KF came speeding around the corner.

Wally tried to slow to a stop before running into his best friend, unfortunately things didn't always go as planned. There must have been flour on the floor because he lost all traction and was about to run into Rob at almost full speed. He managed to twist his body at the last second but still hit the boy wonder. Wally grabbed the younger boy around the waist and flipped to his back as they hit the ground; the momentum propelling them across the floor.

Robin got his bearings fairly quickly, and came to the realization that KF had all but tackled him in his attempt to get to food. They were lying on the floor, Dick pressed against the red head; Wally still had his arms wrapped protectively around the boy wonder's midsection.

"Haha, sorry. You ok?" Wally tilted his head to the side and looked his friend over.

Dick pulled back slightly and looked at the boy below him. "Never better." He gave a half smile that was both innocent and teasing.

Only after Wally had caught himself staring at Rob's mouth did he realize how close they were. There were a few moments of silence, still awkward, but not as bad as last time. "So…You made brownies?"

Dick chuckled and climbed off the speedster. Once he made it to his feet, he hopped up and sat on the counter. Robin grabbed the bowl he had used to mix everything together. "Uh-huh. But they have to cool." He dipped his finger in the bowl and licked the batter off slowly.

"That's fine. I'll just help you clean up then." Wally smiled and walked over to stand in front of Rob. He reached for the bowl, only to have Robin pull it out of his reach. The red head stuck out his bottom lip and put on the puppy dog eyes.

Robin swears his heart just fluttered. He smiles as he dipped a finger in again and cleaned it off in the same manner as before.

Wally watched as his best friend continued to lick the batter. There was just a hint of chocolate on the corner of the boy wonder's mouth.

This is by far the most seductive thing I can think of. Robin thought. If Wally doesn't at least-

Suddenly, Wally reached out and wiped the edge of Dick's mouth with his thumb. He brought it back to his own mouth. Robin's jaw dropped a little when Wally moaned once he got a taste. That was, wow. Just…wow. Any vocabulary Dick might have had just went flying out the window.

"That was delicious. Seriously Rob, give me the bowl." Robin knew full well that brownie batter was one of Wally's biggest weaknesses.

Dick swallowed hard. "N-No." He dipped two fingers in and licked them clean; making sure he made it a little messier. He felt the smudges of chocolate on his chin and cheek this time. Robin waited patiently to see what KF would do.

The speedster licked his lips. He stepped in a little closer and swiped the batter off the younger teen's face. Wally repeated his previous action and licked the chocolate off his finger. "You're messy." He observed, voice coming out a lot breathier than he intended.

"Sorry." It was just about all Dick could do not to push Wally against the wall and kiss him until they were both out of breath.

"It's alright, I don't mind." Wally didn't step any closer, but he didn't move back. This time, when Dick licked some more chocolate off his hand, he made sure to keep eye contact. He watched Wally watch him, his fingers, his lips. Dick let his tongue dart out, Wally bit his lip.

So tempting. He's literally intoxicating. Dick thought. Here he was, doing the most suggestive thing he could possibly imagine and he was still the one melting. Wally was just so absolutely consuming. At the moment all Robin could think about was having Wally's arms back around him, and letting the speedster-

"Do you think they're ready?" Wally asked. His eyes never leaving the boy wonder's mouth.

"Yeah." Dick's response came out as a soft whisper. More lost in his day dream than anything else.

Wally let out a shallow breath and took a step back. Robin's glazed eyes came into focused once the red head wasn't so close. Neither moved for a moment, just stared and breathed; both trying to figure out exactly what just happened. KF coughed, before stepping to the side and cutting himself out a piece. Robin stayed at his spot on the counter, bowl held loosely in his hands as he watched the red head.

"I've got, stuff." Wally gestured back to the hallway.

All Robin could do was nod.

Dick watched Wally take a bite out of the brownie. The older hero closed his eyes and savored the taste. "Amazing. Thanks Rob, you're the absolute best." Wally winked before exiting.

Robin leaned back against the cabinets. It was killing him, knowing exactly what kind of sticky sweet KF tasted like at the moment. He sighed. Two more days, just two more days.


Wally zipped to his room and leaned against the door. "What. The hell?" Rob had just looked so… tempting? Was that really the word he was going to use to describe his best friend? He sighed. "Yes." It was. Why? Because that's exactly how Robin had looked.

Pink bubble gum lips and a flirty smile. Hair tasseled and a bit of flour dusting his nose. The chocolate was literally the icing on the cake.

KF groaned. "Not ok." On so many levels.

He took another bite of his brownie and rolled his eyes. Of course Rob would bake a batch of brownies that tasted like heaven; Wally really wasn't sure why he expected otherwise.


A/N: so who wants brownies now?

Ugh, I wish I was an artist. Someone needs to draw Dick sitting on the kitchen counter with chocolate on his face and Wally standing right in front of him just thinking 'well hot damn'. Then send said picture to me. Deal? K, great.

Also, I'm not sure why I think Wally would be a sticky sweet, but it just seems to fit him.

So, I have high hopes for the next chapter. Anyone have any guesses on what's gonna happen next?
