The athletics carnival came pretty quickly. Everyone had to wear specific colors to represent their team. Wally couldn't help to sit still, Artemis rolled her eyes and groaned.
"Can't you sit still!?" she held his leg down.
"Sorry babe just so pumped!" Robin sat behind them with Zatanna who just finished talking to her new friends behind her.
"Whats up with them?" he asked as Zatanna turned to face him.
"Well I wasn't supposed to tell you..." she stumbled in her words.
"What? What did Artemis say?" Robin asked, determined to know.
"The thing is, Artemis..."
"Go on"
"Artemis, met another....guy." she lowered her voice into a quiet whisper.
"What!?" Robin hissed in his whisper.
"Shhhh. You cant tell anyone. Not even Wally!" she put her finger on her lip.
"Why not? Who is she dating?!"
"Can't tell" she turned her head away.
"I need to know!" he kept his voice quiet as he noticed peers looking at them.
"No! Sorry but I can't." the bus pulled to a stop and the teachers gestured the girls to get off the bus.
"Why not?" Robin asked.
"Well, well its because I don't know who's the guy!" Zatanna cried.As all of the girls were off the boys followed.
The races in the 11 year old boys group was always won by Wally. No surprise! After the 11 year old girls event hurdles, Zatanna approached Artemis slowly hands behind her back.
"Hey. I was just wondering if I can ask you a personal question?"
"No."
"Great! Um... Who is the new guy?" Artemis took a deep breath and sighed.
"Zatanna. If the team knows, or the league, I would get kicked out." Zatanna smiled.
"Okay here's the deal. If I tell you a BIG secret I haven't told anyone ever, you tell me the boy your dating!"
"It depends..." Artemis leaned against the gate to the track.
"Its a great offer!" Zatanna said. Artemis shrugged.
"Alright but it better be a BIG secret! That Bats doesn't know about or your dad!" they walked behind a tree where no one stood around it.
"Like I said. A secret NO ONE knows about"
"Huh huh huh." Zeph put both hands on his knees. Wally approached him and patted his back.
"Who-huh- do you-huh run so fast!" Zeph asked.
"Lets just say, its science!" Wally laughed and collected his ribbon.
"Look. 10.00 secs exactly!" said the woman recording the kids times.
"How did he do that? Hes faster than one of the Olympians!" said another wearing a yellow vest.
"Drugs?" Wally spun around overhearing the conversation.
"No drugs. Ain't cheating. Its just me. Ask my uncle or my friends. Test me if I used drugs." he said sternly. He walked away to his next event, discus.
Conner waved to Wally as he walked past.
"10 secs. Think they'll be suspicious"
"How did you-- oh your super hearing" Wally kept a low whisper.
"Its no surprise!" Robin came along joining Wally to their event. They walked past high jump to discus.
"Oh yes!" Robin rubbed his hands together.
"What?" Wally looked at him. "Discus is boring" Robin glared at him.
"As you may know discuses are like Batarangs. I'll easily get into this!" he walked over to the line.
"No way!" Artemis cried.
"Shhhh. Yes way." Zatanna whispered.
"You dated him! That's discussing!" Zatanna frowned.
"I didn't know it was him. He magic himself to this really, I mean really hot guy."
"So how did you know it was Klarion?"
"Please don't say his name! Well I was going to meet him at the park for a picnic. I came an hour early-"
"You what?!" Artemis asked loudly.
"What can I say? I really liked him!" she continued. "So I went there and I saw him (Klarion) laying out the food with Magic! I gasped but doubt it was Ryan. Then he turned into Ryan and got out his phone. So I ran home and my phone rang but I didn't answer it."
"Wait who's Ryan again?" Artemis asked.
"My big crush I had at school once. That my dad didn't know about. So when I got home I threw myself on my bed and cried. Thankfully dad wasn't there. Then there was a knock on the door. It was him!"
"Klarion."
"Don't say his name! So I said its over. He asked why and I said because my dad doesn't like you-"
"Really? That all you got?"
"Yes really. So he tried to get in but I used my magic to not let him get in. He got angry and stormed off. The last words were "I thought you loved me! No matter what!" Artemis stuck her tongue out.
"Gross."
"So I never saw Ryan ever again. Now I feel really weird when fighting you know who"
"Yep. Wow what a story"
"See it was worth it huh? Now tell me who's the lucky boy!" Artemis sighed.
"Okay 11 girls!" a teacher called Jess said. "Lets go to the bus!" she started walking and all the girls followed. The girls got onto the double Decker bus. Artemis and Zatanna sat in the back.
"So who is it?" Zatanna asked as the bus started to drive off.
"Promise you won't tell anyone. Not even Wally, dad, the league not even the team!" Zatanna nodded.
"Okay the boy I'm dating is..."
"Go on" Artemis turned her head away.
"Icicle junior..." Zatanna gasped.
"Can't you sit still!?" she held his leg down.
"Sorry babe just so pumped!" Robin sat behind them with Zatanna who just finished talking to her new friends behind her.
