Read if you dare!
Combat practices, leaps, awkward positions
"Yah!" Robin yells, flying through the air. The metahuman leaps out of the way, to the side, skidding a little. The acrobat follows him swiftly, falling into a swift and unrelenting barrage of flying fists and blurred feet.
Conner tries to land a hit, but Robin sees it coming and darts away, cackling madly, "You can't catch me, you can't catch me~"
The rest of the Team just stands on the sidelines with Black Canary, watching the match. Conner feels furious, and is beginning to hate Black Canary for suggesting that he and Robin fight. The little squirt's just too slippery and quick for him.
"Why." The older boy swings a punch. "Won't." Robin ducks. "You." The other boy flips over his head and lands behind, as light as a feather. "Stay." Conner doesn't manage to turn in time and is thrown forward by a surprisingly powerful kick in the middle of his back. "STILL."
He hears Kid Flash's laugh when he nearly falls. Blood bubbles in his veins and he turns to throw the red-head a vicious glare.
"Superboy, stay focused—" calls out Black Canary. He grunts in reply, his heart beating an angry rhythm against his ribcage.
Suddenly, M'gann cries, "Conner, look out!"
Whipping around, Conner catches a small glimpse of the human just as his large hands close around his tiny right fist. For a split-second, Robin looks momentarily shocked, then, to Conner's and everyone else's surprise, his face splits into a blindingly bright grin.
Then, without warning, he steps up on Conner's slightly bended knee, and knocks him over with an uppercut.
His head snaps back. The tense muscles protest and burn.
Wally yells at him. "What's the matter, Supey? Is Robin too fast for you?"
"Robbie be nimble, Robbie be quick."
Conner pulls himself back together and straightens up. Robin is chanting again. He hates it when the boy does that.
"Robbie jump over," the little bird literally leaps over his head, "the Conner-stick!"
"Don't let him distract you, Conner!" Artemis. Wally is still cackling away.
"That's it." He growls in anger and charges at Robin in frustration. The ebony-haired boy just chuckles and leaps up with frightening agility. For a moment, he is frozen above Conner, suspended in mid-air.
Uh-oh. He's seen this manoeuvre before.
He doesn't have time to drop and change his course and duck out of the way so Robin, the little idiot, lands squarely on his shoulders, successfully pushing him to the floor.
It's over. A blue panel pops up on the arena floor.
'Combat Failed.'
"Haha! I beatcha'!" Robin parades around him as the metahuman turns over, sitting up.
"You didn't beat me—"
Robin's in front of him now. The boy turns about and leans down.
"Is someone unhappy that little Robbie beat him?" he teases in a sing-song voice. Conner gives a mock growl and Robin grins as the rest laugh.
He smiles too.
The laughter dies off and Conner tries to stand up just as Robin tries to reverse. Somehow, their legs get caught and they both trip and then they're back on the floor and suddenly his vision is black and there's something on his—
Ringing silence permeates the cave.
"OH. MY. GOD." Wally's dumbstruck voice comes in.
Then he realises.
Robin is on top of him, the black thing in his vision is his glasses and Robin's lips are on his lips and he numbly registers the fact that they are, technically, kissing.
"Mmf!" Robin leaps off him and scuttles to the far side of the arena, spitting and gasping like a goldfish out of water. Conner sits up again and notices that the team is frozen in shock; Wally's jaw is hanging open.
'Uh' is the only sound Artemis seemed capable of making.
Kaldur is the first to move. He turns and walks out, muttering something along the lines of 'I'm the only sane and unattached person on this team' and suddenly, Wally is laughing, rolling all over the floor and Artemis has her hand clapped to her mouth, trying her best not to burst out into giggles. M'gann is smiling and Black Canary is grinning. Cheekily.
Robin looks completely shocked, disgusted, horrified—Conner doesn't know, because the boy runs out after a split-second and he can hear him washing out his mouth in the toilet
Wally and Artemis continue to troll the pair for the next week and a half. M'gann is amused and Kaldur disappears into the cave's swimming pool for the rest of the day.
I have re-emerged from my lurking(.)

Byebye for now!
