《30 Days Challenge - Birdflash》18. Something sad
Advertisement
Am slowly getting back into the way of writing. Yay!
[Dick - 18; Wally - 20]
"Why do you have to be such a !" Wally yelled. Dick growled and pointed a finger in Wally's chest, pushing him away from himself. "Me? When are stop being such an !" Wally slapped away Dick's hand and glared furiously.
"Why can't you just accept the help I'm giving you!" Dick huffed. "I don't your help! I'm not the helpless damsel-in-distress you always think I am," he spat.
Wally rolled his eyes. "You barely sleep, come always injured back from patrol and healthy eating seems to be a foreign thing for you. Leading the team, patroling Bludhaven and going to the Police Akademie is a lot, admit it. You need to admit that you are overworked. You need help, Dick." "I'm not weak," shouted Dick.
"And I don't say you are," Wally shot back and grabbed Dick's shoulders. "I'm your boyfriend, it's my job to worry, to care, and I'm offering you the help."
"Well, Wally," Dick jerked away from the speedsters grip. "If you haven't already noticed, you're retired and you can't exactly go to the Akademie for me, no can you. Now let me be, I have a patrol to do."
Dick walked to the bedroom and started to change into his Nightwing-Suit. Wally walked into the room and snatched the mask from Dick's hand. "You will not! You are overworked and injured, I can't let you out in this condition with a good conscience." Dick tried to get the mask back from Wally, but he threw it to the other side of the room. "God, you're as bad as Batman."
Wally regretted saying that the moment Dick froze.
His head snapped up and suddenly he was very close to Wally's face. "At least didn't quit because I was too scared being slower than my mentor."

He knew he should let himself get baited, that Dick's temper was just getting the better of him, but at the mention of his insecurity, something in Wally snapped, making him say the words he would regret for the rest of his life.
"At least my mentor openly showed that he loved me. At least mY FAMILY IS STILL !"
Suddenly everything stopped. Dick looked shocked at Wally. Wally's eyes widened in horror when he realized what he had said.
"Dick..." He tried to lay a hand on his arm, but the acrobat pulled his arm away as if Wally burned him, and look at him with hurt and betrayal in his eyes.
"Let me " Dick screamed. "Get !" Tears started to fall from Dick's eyes. Wally could only look helplessly at his boyfriend's distress. "Dick!" "" Dick cut him off. "If won't leave, will." The acrobat walked towards the door.
"Dick, wait! I'm sor-" "Can it, West," Wally flinched at the cold tone. Dick turned and gave him an icy glare.
"Do you believe in love at first sight?" Dick smirked darkly, making Wally swallow. He heard that before, he knew where this is going. "How about misery after three years?" Tears burned behind his eyes.
He knew that line. Dick and he searched up pick up lines one day and stumbled over a different side, with quite interesting lines. It was about-
"You deserve better and so do I."
-Break up lines. Dick left the apartment without hesitation. Wally fell to his knees.
It couldn't end like this, could it? The atmosphere was tense and both were at their worst. He couldn't have fucked up this much, could he?
Steadying his breath, Wally tried to collect himself.
Everything will be fine. Dick just needed time to cool of, that's all. They are going to be fine. Dick was just mad and wanted to hurt him. That was fine, Wally had hurt him too. He just had to wait for Dick to calm down and they could talk, apologize and everything's okay.
(Wally had a feeling they won't be. He prayed they will, but it looked bad.)

Re-Ordaining of the Chosen
Alea cheerfully hummed as she descended the steps, brimming in upbeat while her colleague, Quarren Leos, shot her a look of skepticism. “So… were you right about him?” he asked doubtfully. She came to a stop for a moment, her humming falling silent before she shook her head, waving her medium length light-blonde hair from side to side. “I was wrong about him.” Quarren raised an eyebrow in confusion at the convoluted response.“But you seem quite happy?” he asked again. “Because I am. But I was wrong about him. He was… so much more than I ever expected.” Alea looked at the sky overhead with a smile. “That boy… no, that man, is amazing. I firmly believe he will come to stand on top of any adversary he faces. He is destined. He is Chosen.” Quarren snorted as he stepped past, shaking his head. “Okay. Each to their own beliefs but you’re sounding like a nutjob. That skinny twig? Everyone calls him a cripple, you know,” he shook his head.“Rumours are always false, Leos,” Alea answered with a disapproving shake of her head. “You wouldn’t know. He is so, so much more.” “I saw him with my own two eyes. I didn’t see anything redeeming,” Quarren rebutted. “Well…” Alea chuckled. “You haven’t seen what I’ve seen.” In the year 917 of the Imperial Calendar, the Great War had just ended between dozens of nations. Farrien welcomed home millions of troops and warriors with the Archdukes of Aerianne and Kanaria leading them at the forefront. Since the founding of Farrien, the Aerianne and Kanarian Archduchies have been pillars upholding the Kingdom from enemies. It was common belief that they possessed special blood blessed by the Goddess Stecia, who gifted the lineage to the first King of Farrien when he first founded the country. All were ecstatic when the current generation of the two Archduchy's, after the war, agreed to let their children wed. The excitement was short-lived however when the Aerianne Princess proved to be a dragoness among men but the Kanarian Prince was worse than even mediocre. The Prince disappeared and the wedding was shortly forgotten as society lived on. Until one day the Young Heir of Kanaria returned to Farrien a changed man, bringing demise with him. Follow the story of the Chosen ordained by the Goddess of Time as he returns to the past to right his wrongs and set things back straight again!
