Hey everyone! ;D

This is my first story so please be nice! Btw, I'm open to anyone comments and ideas you could give to help me improve!

The story will get MUCH more interesting in the future, so sit back and enjoy the read. Thanks :)

It was Artemis's first day at her new school, Gotham Academy. She was nervous to say the least, having to adjust to her new surroundings and needing to keep her identity as Artemis, protégé to the Green Arrow a secret. She had just met her student Liason, Bette, who was now guiding her down the hallway, giving her a tour of the school. After, Bette handed Artemis her class schedule and both went their separate ways. Artemis's first lesson was math. She cringed at the word. Math was not one of her strongest subjects and was also her most hated as well. She dragged herself to her classroom and sat herself on a table by the window, praying for the day to end quickly.

"Hey, there. How's it going?" said a seemingly familiar voice. Artemis quickly turned her head towards the direction of the noise and found herself staring at a young boy with black hair, and blue eyes.

"Hey! You're the guy who took a picture with me this morning! What was up with that?" cried Artemis, not really angry but more of annoyed.

"Okay, okay no need to shout." Said the boy with a sneaky grin on his face, "Just thought I'd say hello to a new face".

"By suddenly coming up to them and taking a photo?"

"Exactly." Stated the boy bluntly. " I do it with everyone. No big deal." (lieeess) "Right…" said Artemis shifting her gazed to her desk. Artemis just let it go. She did not want a fight on her first day of school.

"Oh come on, I was just trying to be nice. How about I introduce myself?" said the boy politely, "My name's Richard Grayson but everyone calls me Dick. And I'm guessing you must be Artemis".

Artemis turned towards the boy "How'd you know my name?" replied a surprised Artemis.

"Well, you're on a Wayne scholarship aren't you? We kinda met before at a Wayne event. Bruce Wayne being my dad and all, naturally I was there as well. That's where I saw you and you were obviously too preoccupied to remember me". Said Dick with a smirk.

Artemis blushed to her ears. Of course! How could she have forgotten meeting and shaking hands with the ward of the famous, billionaire Bruce Wayne at the scholarship dinner a few weeks ago? She had to admit, Dick did look different in a school uniform compared to the suit he had been wearing. Which she thought he looked handsome in by the way. She shook that ridiculous thought from her head, to prevent herself from blushing further.

"Oh, right, well, sorry. It was a busy night".

The boy chuckled, "No problem. Totally understand. Other matters aside.. What do you think of Gotham Academy?"

"Well, I have only been her for about 20 minutes, so.. I can't really say."

"Right... forgot about that.." said Dick, a hint of shyness in his voice.

Artemis couldn't help but crack a smile. Maybe this school wasn't gonna be as bad as she thought...

Just then, their teacher, Mr. Withers entered the classroom. Mr. Withers, unlike his name, was a cheerful and bright man. He always tried his best to make his lessons fun and interesting. Well, as interesting as maths could get. He quickly greeted the class and starting ticking of the names on his list, not forgetting to introduce Artemis to the class when he got to her name. To which Artemis gave a nod and a small wave. The lesson continued for 1 hour till the sound of the bell. It was off to Chemistry now. Dick, having Chemistry as well guided her to the labs. Both of them chatting a bit on the way. A group of 5 girls walked by and bumped hard into Artemis. Causing her to stumble slightly and drop her books.

"Oh hey, it's the new girl" said the brunette to the group, then looking down at Artemis. "Hmm.. what a tramp! New girl, if you know what's good for you, you'll go back to the dump you came from. This place is way to prestigious for someone of your caliber." Snickered the girl, arms crossed across her chest, her head held high and eyes narrowed.

Artemis was just about to explode with anger, her fists at the ready when Dick stepped in.

"Lindsay, would you please be so kind as to not be so rude to Artemis." Said Dick, a smirk on his face.

Lindsay, taken back slightly by the sudden remark sneered at Dick.

"You're just lucky you little twerp, that your father owns this school. If not for him, everyone knows exactly where you'd be."

Dick's eyes widened, his face blank. His true feelings hidden below the façade just like how Batman had taught him. He ignored them, helping Artemis pick up the last of her books and grabbed her hand. He pulled her away from the group heading towards their class, but not before giving them a 'bat glare', out of Artemis's view of course. The group's faces turned to shock and fear before they scampered away.

The two calmed down as they reached their classroom and continued to chat more, surprising both heroes as they slowly found themselves exchanging jokes, topics and interests. Of course, Dick or should I say Robin already knew that this Artemis was 'his' Artemis, another young hero in training part of the Young Justice. Artemis on the other hand, had no idea what she was getting herself into.

The rest of the day went by smoothly. Artemis compared her schedules with Dick and found 4 out of 6 of her classes the same, and she really didn't mind. After all, she was now starting to get to know Dick and was happy to be able to meet a new friend.

It was now the end of school, and the two said goodbye. Dick heading towards his limousine, Alfred in the driver's seat, and Artemis walking to the bus stop. Dick got into the car and closed the door.

"So, Master Dick. Good day at school I assume" stated Alfred. It wasn't hard to notice the big grin on Dick's young face.

"Hmm.. I guess you could say that.. it was asterous!" Dick replied, continueing to grin all the way to the manor.
