A/N

Hahaha this is going to be like the worst Birdflash story of all time. I am the opposite of Panic!at the disco. I WRITE TRAGEDIES NOT SIN .

Anyways, I just want to let you know that this is a progressive piece. Love does not happen right away, and I do not like it when stories use 'love at first sight' as the basis of their romance. One of the reasons I am not into most romance based stories. More times than not, Love on it's own is a story. It has it's ups and downs, antagonists and protagonists- problems at every turn... Love is not simple. It is a slow process-- I want to bring that raw awkwardness and that slowly growing affection. I hope that you will see that as my main goal.

ANYWAYS!

Here is your update,

Dick walked down the halls With wally, chatting up a storm and laughing every now and then while talking about mundane things such as video games or TV shows. It felt nice to be together without trying to hide the fact that they were friends. Sure Dick got a lot of dark looks from Wally's supposed team members the few days he has been here, but it was nothing he could not handle. After all, he was with his best friend, and no one was going to spoil that for him. "So I hear you are going on a mission soon." Dick commented in an uncaring matter."Something about breaking into a heavily guarded Enemy hideout."

"Yeah how did you know?" Wally asked, raising an eyebrow. "Let me guess... you hacked the Mountains main frame again didn't you? Why am I not surprised."

Dick laughed, wrapping his arm around his friend's shoulder. "Something like that."

"Did you know who the important asset is going to be? Batman would not the team anything about it with us. Said we would eventually find out for ourselves when the time comes."

"Dick whistled. "Sure sounds like the Bat. Never one for sharing information is he?"

"All he said was that we would need someone who is good with computers because the hideout is heavily guarded--"Wally stopped walking, realization crossing his features. "Dude..don't tell me."

Dick held a finger up to his lips with a smirk. "Don't ruin the fun Walls, I want to see their looks of outrage when they see me walk through the door. Could you imagine blondie's face? It will be hysterical!"

Wally was grinning now from ear to ear. Did this mean that Robin has accepted the fact that he could do more as a good guy? Working alongside his best friend would be the best thing-- Wally frowned. "But your Injuries..."

Dick snorted. "Like a bullet wound would stop me from completely owning your lame team."

Wally huffed. "They are not lame"

Dick patted Wally's back in a jocking manner. "The only reason they are not lame is because They at least know how to choose a good hero."

Wally blushed slightly. "Dude, If i did not know any better..I would say you just gave me a compliment"

Dick chuckled. "I have my moments, besides. I compliment you all the time. Well at least on personality, your fighting could use a little more work..as well as your appearance."

"Hey!" Wally playfully shoved Dick "You are no prince charming either, You were hit by the ugly stick"

"I beg to differ." Dick shook his head, steadying his feet a bit so keep standing after the shove. " You are just jealous that I'm perfect." Dick posed dramatically.

"Ego much there?" Wally snorted in response. "I swear, one of these days when avillian comes and beats you up in the face, I won't bother to stop them in messing up that 'perfect' face of yours"  Wally used his finger to create quotations when he said the word 'perfect', laughing at the fake offended look that Dick wore.

"You love me too much for that." Dick joked. His smile widening even more.

"You're right, maybe I do.."

The teens both pause for a second in realization of how the conversation turned. Dick's face slightly reddening, something Wally has never seen before, even though Dick mask his most of it. "Uh...:" Dick said dumbly, hand quickly going to his face to attempt to hide his face. "Maybe I do need to rest a bit longer..I think my fever is coming back"

"Uh..right..we should get you back to bed." Wally quickly added, playing off of the other's comment. "Don't want you to get sick before the mission. You seemed so eager to piss Artemis off." Wally went to grab Dick's hand to lead the way but stopped himself. Where they always like this? What exactly was their relationship? Friends..best friends--more than friends-- Wally shook his head quickly and pulled more away, the action he soon regretted. He looked up to see such a hurt expression from Dick. It only lasted a few seconds but He saw it..he looked like he was just slapped in the face, however he covered it up with a smile. Though being so close as he was to  dick, he knew for a fact it was not a real one.

"I can Find my way back on my own. Besides, I need to talk to Mister Broody one more time about some gear he was supposed to be getting me. Can't fight crime unprepared after all." He quickly changed the subject, letting  out a weak laugh as well.

"Dude wait I--" Wally's voice got caught in his throat, not knowing what to say. What could he say? He just created the most awkward conversation between them of all times. How was he going to fix this!?

"Don't sweat it Walls. I can handle myself just fine." Dick gave a thumbs up, his smile never faltering. "Just be sure not to ruin the surprise. We both know how much your mouth like to run." Dick turned on his heels and started to walk in the other direction, his smile falling the second his face came out of view.
