"Here you go." Megan sat a plate of food down in front of me.
"Thank you."
"So uh...Any reason you're wearing his clothes?" Robin questioned me.
"Yeah babe, you're swimming in them."
I shrugged. "Well...I wasn't exactly expecting to come here...all my clothes are still at home...like I have my uniform and a pair of sweats and a tee shirt but-" I broke off, shaking my head. "I might see if I can get some of my stuff tomorrow."
Yeah... I'm wearing Kaldur's clothes. Which is nothing new. I usually swiped a few shirts here and there before I'd go to camp.
Although I have to pull the drawstrings as much as I can on the sweats.
"What does it matter that she's wearing his clothes?" Connor raised an eyebrow before digging into his food.
I looked at my plate and sighed. "It would be better if it were blue."
Kaldur chuckled and shook his head, causing everyone to stare at him.
"Did-Did Kaldur just laugh? Ow!! What was that for?!"
"You're being rude!"
"I'm not the one smacking somebody!"
"This happen a lot?"
"More than you think."
"So... basically Katie and Travis?"
"Basically."
"Why do you do that?" Robin questioned.
"Do what?" I looked at him, fork halfway to my mouth.
"Use Atlantean? Are you hiding something?"
"Well... probably yes. We all have secrets. But, this is more force of habit."
Kaldur reached over and tried to snag a biscuit. I smacked his hand away.
"Bad."
"What with the blue thing?" Wally looked between the two of us.
"Her mother would turn everything and anything she could blue. Mainly...what started that anyway?"
"Argument with my step-father. He said there was no such thing as blue food." I finally got some food in my mouth. "This is good."
"Thank you. I wasn't sure it would be good...I got the recipe from Wally."
"Hey!"
I smiled and leaned against Kaldur, yawning.
"Tired?"
I waved a hand. "I'm good. I just had a stressful day yesterday."
"Stressful is understating it isn't it?"
"Shut up." I mumbled.
"Are you ready for today's training?" Who...
We all turned and there was a blonde wearing a black catsuit sorta thing.
"Canary? I thought you said training was cancelled today?"
"The mission didn't last as long as I thought it was going to. Who is this?"
"I'm Percy."
"Aquaman's other protégée." Wally spoke up.
Canary frowned. "He didn't mention anything to the League about you joining."
I shrugged. "I didn't know I was coming here until today. So..."
Kaldur stood up and took his empty plate to the sink I did the same.
It was good food...too bad I'll probably...never mind.
"Actually I don't remember him ever mentioning you. When did you first start assisting him?"
"Um...I actually can't remember. It was what, a little bit before you wasn't it?" I looked at Kaldur.
He nodded. "Actually...I cannot remember exactly when you started."
I chuckled. "At least I stayed off this team for as long as I did."
"What's that supposed to mean?" Connor glared at me.
Shrugging I stood up. "Me and Kaldur...we tend to...argue a lot. It's fine when it's just us but with other people, that time with Garth?" I shook my head.
"Basically she is a better leader than me, refuses to admit it, and then usually gets herself in trouble."
I turned and stared at him, an eyebrow raised. "Oh I'm so sorry for all the trouble that I have willingly put myself into."
"You could make an attempt to not get in trouble."
"But that's no fun." I pouted.
"No one is going to point out the fact-"
"Okay so...I don't exactly know how to adjust the training schedule to account for you. Guess you do have the night off." Canary walked away.
Sweet.
"That was... convenient. Anyone else think she's going to come up with something extremely debilitating?" Artemis looked around the group.
"She probably is. Now- Wally stop! I made those for everyone!"
"Sorry sugar. These are good. But not as sweet as you."
I sighed. "I will kill him by the end of next week."
"Being generous with the time are we?"
I rolled my eyes and sat back next to him, resting my elbows on the table and putting my head in my hands. "He...he just reminds me of Leo."
Kaldur gently rubbed my back. "It will be okay. And I will ask him to not flirt with you if it will bother you that much."
"Thank you." I mumbled.
"Wally, can I request something of you?"
"What is it dude?"
"Percy... she'd prefer you not flirt with her, she feels uncomfortable with it."
"Why are you so protective of her? It's kinda weird."
"Kinda? I'd say more like really weird."
"Well...I might be wrong...but I think those two grew up together. So doesn't it make sense for him to care about her?" Megan spoke softly.
I only stared despondently at the empty cookie tray.
What the Hades? Did Annabeth finally rub off on me? Jeez.
"That is actually the truth."
"Um, is she okay?"
"Percy what-oh. Really?" He sighed.
"They were cookies Kaldur. Cookies."
"You have a problem."
The entire team stuttered at that sentence.
"No I don't you have the problem for saying that I have a problem when we both know very well if either of us has a sweet tooth it's you."
"I can make more." Megan offered.
"Can I help?"
"Sure."
Kaldur got up and grabbed ahold of me before dragging me away.
"What the- Kaldur let me go!"
"No."
I grabbed ahold of the couch and held on for dear life. "I'm only going to make cookies."
"And you won't let anybody else eat any!"
I don't know what this is.
It's something.
So I'm kinda just dead in everyway except physically at this point...
