The Blue Assassins

XXV

I sneak into Sam's room in silence. I can see her watching TV, she's watching the Flash obviously.

Slowly, I crawl up to the edge of her bed and take a few breaths. Then–

"BOO!"

"WHAT THE HELL–" Sam grabs her pillow and throws it at me. I lay on the floor, dying of laughter.

"You had to see your face! It was beyond funny!" I laugh at her but she doesn't seem to agree.

  "Oh, shut up." She pouts and I smile.

  "Aren't you happy?" I ask, making her raise an eyebrow at me.

  "About what?"

  "Uh, I'm alive?"

  She blinks a few times before gasping. "You're alive!"

  I frown at her, "Did you seriously forget about me?"

  "Sorry, my head was in Central City with Barry."

  "God, I would love to be there with Barry Allen and Oliver Queen."

  "Ooh yes! And agents of S.H.I.E.L.D!" Sam puts her hand over her heart, sighing dreamily.

  I grin. "Lincoln and Fitz."

  "And Hunter."

  "Oh yeah!" I nod vigorously and she chuckles.

  "Anyway, how was the mission?" She questions and I shrug.

  "We succeeded and it was pretty fun."

  A smirk spreads onto her face. "Any romance I should know about?"

  "Uh." I clear my throat, "Nope."

  "Oh really?" Her eyes were like an eagle's and that terrified me.

  Fortunately, Cody interrupts our conversation.

  "What's up, besties?" He winks as Drake trails behind him.

  Sam squints at him, "I didn't hear a knock."

  "That's because I didn't knock. Duh." He responds and I stifle a laugh.

  "Boy, you better get your as–"

  He throws her an Oreo packet while smirking. "You were saying?"

  She smiles angelically, "Nothing, handsome."

  "That's what I thought." Cody sits beside me and Drake sits by Sam. I grab an Oreo without her noticing. Cody smiles knowingly at me.

  "I'm a ninja." I whisper and he chuckles.

"Hey, when's the wedding by the way?" Drake questions and I shrug.

"A few weeks?" I offer and they nod. Someone knocks on the door and Sam yells 'who is it'.

"River."

"Speaking of the wedding..." Sam mutters and I sigh. I open the door and he smiles at me.

"I have some free time right now. Wanna talk about our wedding plans?" River suggests and I bite my lip. I glance over at my friends and they wink at me.

"Go." Sam mouths as Cody gives me a thumbs up. Drake simply waves at me.

I face River again. "Okay. Let's go."
