Sleepover Bash

Part II

An hour later, Jinx stretched. "As much fun as this has been, we've got plans for shopping today. Come on, girls. We have special attire to buy."

Kid Flash started sweating. "Are you sure you want to go shopping? You must have more sore muscles for me to massage." Truthfully, his hands had started cramping ten minutes ago.

"We're really sure." Argent promised as she smiled at Hot Spot. "Tonight's a special night."

"Or." Changeling gulped. "You could make today special and stay in."

"When we get back, we should talk." Raven climbed to her feet.

We Need To Talk was the four words no man ever wanted to hear out of the mouth of a spouse and for good reason. Nothing good ever came from them.

Cyborg thought quickly. "Take your time shopping. We're making you something great for dinner and you'll need it after shopping all day. Just go and have fun. We'll talk later. Way later."

Bumble Bee patted his cheek. "Are you okay? You seem a little flustered."

"Just a little hot. Nothing to worry yourself over."

"We'll be back soon." Kole told them.

"Don't rush." Jericho signed. "Get whatever you like, have fun."

"Maybe we should take the kids?" Bumble Bee pretended to stall.

"We have everything under control." Nightwing waved her off.

"If you are certain?" Starfire eyed him with veiled amusement.

"Completely."

"Alright." The girls hugged the kids and got on the elevator to leave.

The guys let out huge breaths.

"Man, that was close!" Speedy dropped to the floor.

"We should talk." Changeling mumbled. "Did she not like the brunch? The massage? Did I paint her toes the wrong color?"

"Stay strong, solider." Nightwing commanded. "We're going to make them a great dinner. We just need to clean up in here again and watch the kids."

"Um..." Aqualad tapped him on the shoulder. "Where are they?"

Nightwing, Changeling and Cyborg whirled around but only Calvin was in his playpen. "Crap!"

ZZZZZs

"I can't go through with it." Raven dug in her heels.

"Why? You already bought it." Jinx didn't see a problem.

"That was my first mistake!"

"You can do this!" Bumble Bee held up a fist. "You are strong. You are confident. You got him right where you want him."

"This is way outside my comfort zone."

"I must admit that it is outside of my own but this is to teach the lesson, yes?" Starfire said. "They must learn to respect us and we will fulfill our vengeance pact once we have completed the exchange."

"I can't imagine him holding..." Raven cut her own self off.

"I can." Cheshire smirked. "He'll die."

"We've been gone long enough." Argent pointed out. "And I'm kinda hungry. Brunch was a long time ago."

"This had better be the best revenge." Raven was mortified by what was in her shopping bag.

"It will be." Jinx put her arm around her shoulder. "Trust me."

The girls used the roof's door to get to the elevator and rode it to the common room. They were in awe of the room. The lights were off and candles were lit everywhere. The dining table was set back up with the same place cards and vases of flowers.
