[Dick - 17; Wally - 19]

When Dick asked him if he had time today, this was not what Wally thought they would be doing.

After Days of barely any contact and weeks since they last saw each other, Wally expected something different when they would hang out again.

Ever since Dick and Bruce had they're falling out and Dick left to Bludhaven and started being Nightwing, the younger had barely any time now and that just left Wally with a bad taste in his mouth.

He had been lucky that he and Dick are still in contact- which can't be said for everyone, but Wally understood that Dick had a lot going on since Wally himself retired for college because not even he is that good at multitasking- but the speedster still missed hanging out with the bird.

Their relationship was already a little strained since Wally stopped being Kid Flash, but he never stopped being Dick's best friend and god, how he missed his best friend.

And did he get his wish to spend time with his best friend? Yes. Is he enjoying his time? Questionable, considering they are going ice skating aND IS THAT REALLY THAT OF A GOOD IDEA ?!!??!

"Relax, Walls. It's not that bad," Dick reassured with a shit-eating smirk. How dare he look hot while doing that!

Wally huffed, "But it is bad. A speedster on ice? Isn't bad enough that you trip me." The other looked at him with the Who? Me? and Wally returned it with his I don't buy it even a second look.

Dick's expression softened. "Hey," he came closer to the siting redhead and placed a hand on his shoulder. "You know I would never let you get seriously hurt. I'll catch you before that." While still reluctant, Wally felt reassured by his words.

Standing up, the duo went over to the ring. Dick, ever the graceful acrobat he is, stepped on the ice without hesitation and looked right at home. Wally, on the other hand, had a much harder time. Years of fighting against Captain Cold gave him weird feelings about ice. On one hand, he knew how to run on ice, but on the other hand, he felt unsafe on ice and did he mention he never ice skated before?

And that Dick knew that because Wally told him so forever ago!

Dick looked at Wally expectantly and patiently tried to guide him on the ice. Taking a breath, Wally didn't give himself the time to think and stepped on the frozen liquid.

"See? It wasn't so hard, now was it." Wally grimaced at the word that was intended to comfort him. "Dude, don't jinx me," exclaimed the redhead. The ebony rolled his eyes but said nothing.

They spend the next half an hour ice skating, Wally stumbled and slipped at first but grew steadier by the minute. Dick skated beside him, the daring tricks and dangerous stunts already boring after 10 minutes for the aerialist, and watching Wally panic about slipping is far more fun than anything else.

"Never knew I would see the day where a speedster is so slow." An offended gasp came from the present speedster and turned to face the bird, but the motion was to fast and he nearly slipped but he caught himself on the railing the last second. Wally heard snickering from beside him as the ebony skated in front of him with a smug expression.

Wally's patience was already running thin and the snickering didn't help, so in a fit of frustration and humiliation, he pushed himself from the railing towards Dick full force. Dick, sensing motion behind him, could barely brace himself as Wally slammed into him, making them both fall on the ice.

Groaning, Dick turned his head to look at the person on top of him. "What the hell, dude." Wally pouted, "It's your fault for behind such a to me." Dick looked unimpressed and pushed himself off the ground, Wally rolled off of him and also stood up.

Standing, they stared at each other in silence, stubborn to not be the one to break first. The silence lasted for like 10 seconds before the two burst out laughing. "You're an idiot," Dick wiped away a tear, Wally smiled teasingly back. "But I'm idiot."

A warm feeling spread through Dick's heart at Wally's words. "That you are," he fondly said. "Let's go, I had enough Ice for today. I'm graving Hot Chocolate." Dick took Wally's hand and slowly guided them both to the exit.

Wally happily followed. He would always follow Dick to the end of the world, no question asked.
