Chapter 18
Her dark hair fell in front of her crystal blue eyes. A goofy smile plastered to her face. She swayed back and forth ever so slightly. The alcohol was hitting them pretty hard. She began to say something but stopped in the middle of the sentence. Those vibrant blue eyes staring her down as she swayed forward. Then there was a loud thump as Megan tried to stand up only to fall over.
A giggle escaped her lips as she looked around. Everything was slightly blurred as she glanced around the room. "So I was thinking that we could-that we could like all play spin the bottle" Wally suggested swaying slightly himself. It took a moment for the idea to sink into everyone's brains. "I think that's a great idea" Artemis said slurring out some of the words.
Zatanna found herself leaning against Dick giggling at virtually nothing. They looked around for an empty bottle as Megan crawled over. "We can use this one I'll just drink the rest" she said grabbing the bottle and pressing it to her lips. Zatanna began to clap and soon they were all chanting the word 'chug'. When it was finished Megan looked like she was about to fall over.
Sitting in a circle Artemis stumbled over trying to place the bottle in the middle. "Girl I think its supposed to be more towards like that way" Roquette said pointing towards the left; finger moving from side to side slightly. The blonde nearly tripped over her own feet when taking her seat back next to Wally. "Who's going to go first?" Conner asked wavering in between the fine line of sobriety and flat out drunk.
"Oh I'll go!" Megan yelled reaching forward and spinning the glass bottle.
"I wonder who its going to land on" Zatanna said watching the bottle begin to slow.
It landed on Artemis as everyone gasped. A cheeky grin plastered to the red heads face. "Its only one kiss" Zatanna said with her head still resting against Dick's shoulder. They all watched as Artemis quickly gave Megan a kiss on the lips. Dick whistled as Wally grumbled pulling his girlfriend back to him. Artemis then spun the bottle as they all watched it spin.
Oddly it landed on Dick as the blonde gave him a sly smirk. Everyone had agreed before that Dick was bloody hot as hell. "Arty why don't you give me a kiss instead" Wally whined; voice slightly slurred as he tugged on her arm. She growled crossing her arms glaring at him. Before he could protest further she crawled over to Dick and gave him a huge slobbery kiss.
When they pulled away his cheeks were as red as tomatoes. "Would you like a kiss now Wally?" she asked batting her steel grey eyes at him. Dick then took the bottle and spun it around. The game on for a couple more rounds until Dick ended up spinning the bottle again. This time it landed on Zatanna as the room fell silent. Even if they were all more than half drunk they remebered what happened to their relationship.
She noticed the bottle pointing at her as she twisted a strand of hair around her finger. Leaning forward she was batting her eyes giving him an alluring smile. "You scared Grayson?" she asked in a seductive tone. His hands cupped her cheeks feeling the soft pale skin underneath his fingertips. That's when she closed the space between them pressing her lips to his.
A spark igniting in both of their bodies as he eagerly kissed back. Compressed emotions finally seeing the surface. The sounds of glass bottles clinking filled their ears. Her arms finding their way around his neck. When they broke apart she gave him a lustful smile. "I love you too" she slurred out with her head resting in the crook of his neck.
She had now found herself situated on his lap with her head resting in the crook of his neck. "Let's dance!" Megan said abruptly as she shakily stood up. They all stood up as Zatanna smirked at Dick. The portable speakers turned on playing random pop music from the radio. "Here's to be awesome parents" she said holding her bottle up towards Dick. He tapped his bottle against her's as they both then drank.
There seemed to be a never ending supply of alcohol. "Whoo go Arty!" she yelled watching Artemis and Wally dancing. Her back up agaisnt his chest as she grinded against him. After a couple more drinks everything started to blur even further.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Her eyes drearily opened as she groaned. The brightness of the room hurt her eyes, head feeling like it was being repeatedly hit with a rock and all she could taste in her mouth was alcohol. Looking over at the freckled body lying next to her. Sheets barely covering his body but she didn't mind. "Wally wake up" she said poking him in the side.
He groaned in response before rolling over. "Arty its too early" he mumbled as she swung her legs over the side of the bed. Drearily looking around at the articles of clothing strewn around the bedroom floor. Pulling on a pair of underwear and one of Wally's button up shirts she stretched. "I'll have to make a note that you look hot in that outfit" he said rolling onto his back.
Emerald eyes scanning her body with a sly smile on his face. She scratched her head trying to remember what exactly happened last night. Everything got a little blurry after her third drink. "Do you remember what happened last night?" she asked walking over to his side of the bed. Sitting down and taking his hand in her's, intertwining their fingers.
Wally thought back to the night before trying to piece things together. "Not a clue babe but I do know one thing that we did" he said with a suggestive wink as he sat up. Moving to give her a kiss as she rolled her eyes and pushed his face away. "I'm going to see what the damage is. While I do that you should probably get changed since your advanced biology class starts in thirty minutes" she said with a wink.
"Shit" he said as she stood up.
"You better start moving Baywatch cause' the clocks ticking" she said tapping her wrist for effect.
Walking out of the room she took a deep breath. Parts of what happened last night were there but it was very blurry. When turning to walk into the living room her jaw dropped. Empty bottles were strewn about, food and plates everywhere and then there was Megan passed out on the couch. Shaking her head she walked over and poked her friend awake. It took a moment before the red head opened her eyes.
She looked around confused as she squinted her eyes. "What happened?" she asked as Artemis shrugged her shoulders. Whenever they all drank together it was a bad idea. This just made her remember that crazy party Dick threw a couple years ago. Her and Wally weren't exactly dating yet and she woke up at his house. "I don't know I think we drank too much" Artemis said as Megan nodded shakily standing up.
"Oh I'll help you clean if that makes it any better" Megan said finally noticing the mess.
"No its fine just go and get some rest at your dorm, and maybe take an asprin while you're at it" she said as the red head nodded.
Walking her to the door she waved her friend off down the hallway. Barking was then heard as she paled beginning to look for Brucely. "Brucely come here boy!" she yelled walking around the condo. The barking seemed to be coming from the washroom. Opening the door she walked inside seeing the poor dog locked in the shower. When she opened the shower door Brucely ran out and began circling her.
Artemis also noticed the the red tie around the dog's neck. It looked to be Wally's and how it got on the dog she'll never know. Taking it off Brucely then followed her into the living room. Wally was already in there fully clothed and wearing a pair of sunglasses. "The asprin bottle is in the far right shelf" she said walking past him to pick up a couple empty bottles.
The sound of the cupboard opening and closing echoed around the place. Throwing some of the bottles into the recycling she was then spun around to meet a pair of emerald eyes. "I'll see you later" he whispered before giving her a sweet kiss. After that it was just her and Brucely against a terrible mess.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
It was quite odd for her parents to come home that late. Stephanie had been asleep when she noticed them slip in. At first she was dropped off at her Grandpa's house for the day. Then Stephanie took her home with Damian. She had begged for him to sleepover despite his loud protests. Now she was standing in the kitchen trying to climb onto the counter. Damian was still asleep and her parents were in her Dad's room.
It was quite odd at first to have her mother sleeping in the same room as her. Finally, she got onto the counter as she opened the cuoboard. Stephanie was fast asleep on the couch so she had to be quiet. "What foolish act are you looking to accomplish here?" Damian's voice startled her as she fell back. He caughter her before she hit the floor luckily.
Flashing him a bright smile he glared hard before dropping her. Yelping she frowned then standing up. He was shorter than her which she found cute. "I was trying to get the cereal" she said crossing her arms as he growled. The two of them close to never agreed on anything. Stephanie then walked in rubbing her eyes. "Good morning" she said as Mar'i smiled and gave her a hug.
Damian crossed his arms giving the older a disgusted look. Mar'i sighed and yanked his arm as he was pulled over. "Enjoy the group hug!" she demanded as his face was squished up against Stephanie's side. "Unhand me this instant mini Grayson" he growled as Mar'i giggled. That was the one thing that annoyed him the most. The fact that she didn't care or even listen to his threats.
Letting them go she then skipped out of the kitchen pulling Damian with her. "Let's go wish them a good morning" she whispered pushing the door open. The room was dark as she pulled Damian along with her. He had given up trying to escape her grip a long time ago. Turning on the bedside lamp it illuminated a bit of the room. Zatanna and Dick were cuddled up on the bed underneath the sheets.
"Mommy! Daddy! Wake up!" she yelled as Damian winced.
Mar'i was also very, very loud. Zatanna groaned rolling over to face away from the two children. Then she sat up and looked around. "Mommy I'm over here" she giggled out as Zatanna turned to look at her. A dreary smile presented on her face. "Good-good morning Mar'i and Damian?" Zatanna questioned slighy confused.
"Hey baby can you go and play with Damian and leave Mommy to rest for another hour or so?" Zatanna asked as Mar'i smiled and nodded.
"Okay sleep well then" she said quickly jumping up and planting a kiss on the woman's cheek.
Zatanna did the same against her cheek before falling back onto the bed. She then dragged Damian back out of the room before quietly shutting the door. "Ooh let's see if Steph wants to play hide and go seek" she said as Damian muttered curse words under his breath. Letting go of his hand she skipped down the hallway.
The smell of something good filling the air. Peering into the kitchen she saw Stephanie cooking breakfast. "Ooh what are you cooking?" she asked jumping up and down to try and see. "Eggs, toast and some pancakes" Stephanie said with a wink. Nodding she left the kitchen and went back to her room. Going inside she saw Damian writing something down in a little notebook.
Creeping over he growled and slammed it closed. "Its rude to look at other people's things without permission" he growled narrowing his emerald eyes at hee. A pout formed on her lips as she batted her eyes. Within a minute she shrugged it off just like everything else. Climbing up onto her bed she crawled over and looked out the window.
Clouds formed in the sky as they drifted over Gotham City. "I get to go to Gotham Academy next week" she said looking back to see him already sitting behind her. A bored expression formed against his features. "I'm excited I'll get to make more friend's!" she said excitedly. For a moment she saw the ghost of a frown against his lips.
"Are you going to school to?" she asked curiously tilting her head to the side.
"Father is looking into it but I highly disagree with him. My intelligence would surpass more than half of the idiots in the class" he said as she gave him a confused look.
Sometimes he talked weirdly and she didn't understand it. But he was still her bestest friend and nobody could say otherwise!
