I hear this loud screeching beep. Instead of opening my eyes, and calmly turning off the alarm like a normal person. I slam my arm out to silence the horrid noise when a spark of electricity makes my life so much easier by making all my electronics go haywire. "Great. Just freaking Great!" I groan while electrocuting, or as I call it zapping because who cares about being technical, everything again. I finally get up from my sleep.

"Ugh how long was I out? Better yet did I miss work?" I yawn while scratching my now tangled blonde hair. I wipe some of the drool that is dabbling down my chin. Not the most beautiful sight to wake up to I know. I pick up my phone which apparently had the alarm on it. Since when did I put that alarm there? Whatever.

"Crap! It five on Saturday!" I yell as I trip over myself. I get up and brush myself off. Using my super speed I clean myself up. I huff into my hand, and smell my breath.

"Ew. That's just plain nasty." I say to myself. To which then I brush my teeth, and eat several mints. That should be good enough. My stomach growls. Super speed does make an appetite. Now I see why Wally was always eating. I look at myself.

"Eh. It's just family dinner. This should be fine." Just enough time to get home at Queen Manor. I then grab my "purse" (which really just holds my suit, weapons, keys, and wallet) and leave out the door. Only to turn around again to go back inside the apartment.

"Dang it! I forgot my phone!" I yell to myself as I run (human speed) back inside to get my phone. "Now I can finally leave." I huff as I get my phone.

Queen Manor, Star City 17:30:00 hours

I walk up to the double oak doors in the front of the exquisite manor. Why is the entry way so long though? Hesitantly I curl my "piano" fingers as dad calls them into a fist. I rap my hand against the doors a few times. I wait for a couple of minutes. When nobody answers I knock again. This time the door swings open to show my mother's face.

"Hey mom," I greet her with a smile and warm hug. She hugs me back, and ushers me in. "Hello Ele come in." As we walk to the dinning room the two of us make small talk. Mainly stuff like ho we've been, work, Blüdhaven, and vigilanting or is it heroing? Whatever the act of being a vigilante or superhero. Once we get to the dinning room I see the table hasn't been set. Instead all the table wear is set in the corner closet to me. I stare at them in confusion when Mom's voice rings out.

"I was hoping that you would use your speed to set the table." I roll my eyes.

"By hoping you mean Electra set the table." I retort back to her. We both start laughing. Out of everything that has changed at least this is still the same.

"Yes *laugh* that's is what I mean." I smile at her. Then proceed to set the table with my new speed. So that the table is set with 6 plates, glasses, napkins, and the appropriate silver wear. I look at mom quizzically. I thought Roy, Jade, and Lian cancelled?

"Mom, why is there-" the doorbell rings. I hear dad rushing down the stairs in a suit and tie. My eyes widen as I finally realize mom is in a black, fancy evening gown. "Mom, mom. Please tell me-" I'm cut off again as Dad enters the room. "Electra sweetheart look who it is." Along with my dad is Bruce Wayne (Uncle B), Damian, and Dick all in suits. 

"Richard John Grayson  surprised you're here." I say as calmly, and sharply as possible with my heart beating a mile per minute. "Electra Laurel Queen. Still as classy as always." I look down at my attire. Crap I never changed out of my t-shirt and basketball shorts. "It's not like you haven't seen me in worse Grayson." He just rolls his eyes at me. "Let's just get this over with."

*Time skip brought to you by boring dinner talk*

Once the we're done eating the six of us move to the living room. Uncle B and Father sit side by side in two chairs while Mother and Damian sit on the couch. Dick stands by the china cabinet which holds some photos. Instead of joining the joyous  conversations going on about the Team, and the new Wayne/Queen partnership I walk to Dick. Just, why can't he see the reasons behind my actions?

"Hey," is what I whisper to him. God, I feel like a little girl again. Even then I wasn't ever this shy. Man if someone told me that this is how our friendship ends up, I would have never believed them. "Hey," is all he responds. Still staring at the wall as if he doesn't believe I'm really there.

"What's going on in that big brain of yours?" I don't expect him to respond. Or do anything really. I know exactly what he's thinking about. "Just thinking," tumbles out of his round, chapped pink lips. Fitting back into the routine we've created for each other. I curl my lips into a smirk. "Dick Grayson thinking. What else is new." His lips twitch into the smallest of smiles. Even when he's aggravated at me I can still make him smile. Just like I used to do. Maybe, maybe he can forgive me yet. Not that I've forgiven myself.

"I meant I was thinking about the past couple of days." My smirk drops as he finishes. Every drop of blood in my body freezes at once. I take my arms from my side, and curl then around my stomach while squeezing my palms into fists. I turn away from him to look at the pictures. I catch the specific picture he's looking at. It's of the original "sidekicks". Roy was giving Wally a piggyback ride with Kaldur on one of his legs. While Dick and I where on the ground laughing with my legs haphazardly thrown over his. I clear my throat. "Wh-what about the past couple days?" Hopefully I don't sound like I'm interrogating him.

Dick shifts his weight so that his left side, the side closet to me, bears all of his weight. His neatly ironed slacks crinkle just a bit along his leg. No doubt Alfred ironed them, Dick was never good at ironing. While his black suit jacket wrinkle as he crosses his arms across his stomach in a comforting gesture. A quiet sigh comes out of his mouth.

"Mostly about us you know. Or more specifically how I found out about your secret identity." He confesses.
