the world you wanted is a fantasy

“Sooo…what do you wanna do?” Wally sat on the back of the couch with his feet placed beside you. “Video games? Binge a TV show or two? Prank some couples?”

“We’re not gonna prank any couples, Wally.” Dick shook his head and sighed.

“Really? What about Conner and Megan? They bailed on us, I think that deserves some payback.” Wally suggested and you cracked a smile. “See! I can already tell y/n’s on board!”

“No.” Kaldur warned.

“Oh, yeah. We’re doing it. Wally, go to the hardware store, you know what to do.”

Years. Kaldur has know you for years, since adolescence. And now the pair of you were grown up, living out the legacies you were promised when you first stepped foot in Mount Justice. But over the years, you also grew closer, to the point where when you walked into the room, Kaldur felt whole again, knowing this feeling few times before. He had feelings for you, his best friend. And this time, he could not let anything stand in the way of that. No person or fate would prevent him from truth. “Y/N, may I speak to you in private?”

“Sure! Will you guys excuse us?” You said to fellow heroes you’d been congregating with and stepped into a nearby room. “Everything alright, Kaldur?” You checked first and foremost.

“Very. There’s just something I need to tell you.” You nodded, giving intent eye contact and awaiting what he had to say. “We have always been close, and I’ve been very grateful for the friendship we share,” he made a decision to grab your hands together in his own and continue, “but lately, I believe our bond has evolved in my own mind. I apologize if this is upsetting to hear, but I cannot make the same mistakes of my past. Y/N, I have feelings for you, but I understand if you don’t feel the same way.” You smiled and eased Kaldur’ahm’s worries, more so when you gave him a kiss on the cheek.

“Not upset. I’m actually glad, if anything. Maybe we discuss this over dinner?”
