The World is an asshole - Superboy x Batsis (reader)
So I wanted to write a Clark Kent story but have kind of a writer’s block on it right now so...What’s the next best thing ? CONNER Kent. Yup. Totally. So here’s a story with Conner dating Batsis and blahblahblah. This is somewhat of a continuation of my stories “You’re kind of an asshole” and “they’re kind of asshole”. ...This is too long, sorry for the super long story, hope you’ll still like it:
PART 1, PART 2
My master list blog : @ella-ravenwood-archives
_________________________________________________
The World was kind of an asshole.
It’s the only thought you have as everything happens.
The World was kind of an asshole.
Oh you had enough.
This was just too much. You couldn’t handle it.
Why could nothing go your way ?! Why everything had to always be so damn difficult ? You were so close from a nervous breakdown.
THIS WAS ALL TOO MUCH !
And no one could help you. You were all alone in this.
No one could cheer you up.
Not even Conner’s reassuring arms and kisses, your brothers’ soothing words and hugs or your dad’s smile could make things better. If this thing wasn’t working, your life would just be ruined...
In a last, and full of spite, action, you...punch the AC with all your might.
And, thanks all the Gods that ever existed, it turns on again. With a sigh of contentment you stay in front of the cool air and life comes back to you again.
It was summer time and the heat was killing you.
You were a creature of the cool and refreshing air of the night.
From Gotham City at that, a place where, for over two third of the year, it was rain, thunderstorms and snow.
Hot weather always got to you. Making you grumpy (grumpier than usually, you were a Wayne after all) and irritable.
And of course, the AC at the Young Justice’s headquarters was broken, and no one seemed to know how to fix it...Well, that was until you punched the main panel that was in the room you all hung in the most, making it work again somehow. And damn it felt good.
Relishing in the cold wind brushing you, you closed your eyes and sigh once more. After a few minutes of standing there, finally refreshed and in a giddy mood once more, you open your eyes and join your friends back on the couches everyone was sitting on.
They didn’t even register what you just did, used to you and your antics but...Wally can’t help but say :
-Do you really have to punch all your problems away ?
You smile and chuckle lowly, as you sit next to Conner and his arms automatically wrap around your shoulders.
-Hey, I’ve been raised by the Punch Master, dude. So, the answer is : yes. Yes I do. Besides, AC’s working again so...you know.
Wally can’t help the smile creeping on his face, though he tries to act completely exasperated for good measure. You’re about to say something else but are distracted by Conner kissing your cheek tenderly...he can never resist. Whenever you’re being even just a tiny bit sassy, he just feels the need to kiss you, because oh damn he loves that part of your personality.
That’s when he and your brothers come in.
Your dad. The Batman. He tries to ignore as best as possible your dazed smile as Conner peppers kiss down your jaw, he tries to ignore your girly giggle and looks away, saying :
-Are you talking about me ?
And oh he knows the grin on your face is full of smugness. He knows that you’re very happy that he’s finally trying to accept that Conner is your boyfriend but...he also knows that you’re your mother’s daughter, and mischievously teasing him is one of your favorite past time. You turn your head to him, pulling away from Conner and says :
-And yet again my beloved dad, you surprise me at how great of a detective you are. The best in the World in fact.
He smirks at you and antics, and his expression ALMOST doesn’t change when his eyes meet Conner’s. There’s ALMOST no suspicion at all in his gaze when he looks upon your boyfriend.
Conner is still not used to your family (except for Dick that always supported you two) to be nice to him...Like, yesterday morning, when Damian gave him cookies he was pretty sure they were poisoned with Kryptonite but...no. They were just normal cookies.
It seemed like the threat of never talking to them again worked wonder. But still, it was a bit weird that they were so damn nice.
You were about so say something when your father turns to Conner and says :
-May I speak to you, Superboy ?
You roll your eyes at the formal “Superboy” and lay back in the couch, resisting the urge to make-out with Conner just to spite your dad and brothers, and watch as your boyfriend goes to your father. You give the mighty Batman a look that means : “Careful, I’ll fight ya” and he nods, rolling his eyes at you but...he knows you’re not kidding. If he does anything that you think is rude to your boyfriend, then you will fight him...You’ll never hit your dad though (only ACs), but oh your words were sharper than swords.
You observe your dad as he speaks to Conner, and try to look for any change in Conner’s body..You know your boyfriend can get mad easily, and is always kind of on the defensive and...He’s smiling. And your father lays a fatherly hand on his shoulder. Wow. Ok. That was unexpected.
When your dad called you to excuse himself from wanting to break you and Conner up, you never expected him to be so into making amend. And yet, every day he surprised you, he even let Conner sleep at the Manor with you ! Though you could totally hear him pace the corridors, trying to listen in to any suspicious noises...Needless to say you did NOT make love that night. You were totally up for it but...The Batman kinda freaked Conner out really.
You smiled at the memory (it really was hilarious to witness your boyfriend, the super-strengthed super-powerful dude, sleeping like a plank at the opposite side of you, afraid to even brush his toes against your feet because he was scared of a human he could probably break in half if he wanted...well, not like your dad would let him really), and barely register that Conner is back and is sitting next to you again, a stupid smile on his face.
You quickly glance at your dad who shyly smiles back to you and...What’s happening ? You’re about to ask Conner but he answers before you can say anything :
-Your dad just told me I could be your official date for tonight’s gala. I mean...if you want to.
Oh. OH ! This meant a lot. A LOT ! Coming with an “official date” at any social events meant that you were basically announcing that your relationship was a serious one and...were you ready for such a commitment ? Yes. Yes you totally were. You turn to your boyfriend and smile, kissing him on the lips. You pull away to say :
-Of course I want to Conner, I love you.
But before he can say “I love you” back, your youngest brother, Damian, comes and sits right between you two, an upset expression on his face and...you can’t help but chuckle.
Out of all the members of your family, your little brother was the one struggling the most with this all “accepting that his beloved sister is dating a man” thing, and though he’d do some effort, if he was present, he’d always make sure to stand between the two of you...Which spurred him being in very awkward situation as you just didn’t care for his presence and kissed each other above him (you were taller than him).
Oh, how cute was this little munchkin...
************
You could clearly see he wasn’t comfortable. It was so obvious it was almost painful. It was also totally adorable, the way he’d awkwardly walk with your hand in his, wearing one of Jason’s tuxedo...
When you arrived at the gala event, and got out of the car, you could almost hear people gasped. What ? Bruce Wayne’s precious daughter was...dating ? In the public mind, you were still a little girl even though you were actually an adult now. They saw you grow up, they followed your every step (well, almost every step) and to see that now...you were officially dating someone ? It was something.
It would make every headline of every newspaper in the area the next day.
You tried to prep Conner a bit, explaining to him how things would unfold and...he just seemed so sure of himself, saying : “I know, I saw you guys on TV multiple times”, that you ended up not worrying for him and...oh damn he actually had no idea what was awaiting him.
Flashes of a hundred cameras blinded him, thousands of questions about you and his relationship with you thrown at him in a matter of minutes, all the attention on him and just so many people completely obsessed with you and every single move your family made !
You, Bruce and your brothers were used to it. You didn’t particularly like it but...you grew up with it. But Conner ? Or poor man...
You tried to make him feel better by holding his hand tight and smiling a lot at him and you even gave to the public what they wanted...You kissed him. You didn’t think about it too much though, you didn’t think about the articles that would be written with pictures of you two kissing...you just wanted him to feel better.
And it worked. A bit. As the night went on, he felt more and more relaxed and you...angrier and angrier.
You know it’s stupid but..you can’t help it. All those girls flirting with YOUR Conner ? Goddammit. Yes, he’s very hot, but he’s also very taken, go away bitches thank you very much. You were getting more and more annoyed when your oldest brother, Dick, taking advantage of a bathroom break Conner had to take and the fact that you were alone right now, came close to you and, throwing an arm around your shoulders said :
-You know, jealousy makes you look ugly.
-Wow damn, thanks bro’.
-You know what I mean.
-In fact, I have no idea. Except that you just call me ugly, and that you’re a terrible brother.
He chuckles and you smile at him, as he continues :
-Oh who am I kidding ? Even when you’re jealous and frowning you’re cute. And there’s really no reason to be jealous.
-Oh really ? Have you seen all those damn models lurking around him ? Using every moment I’m not looking to wink at him ? Touching his damn muscles RIGHT IN FRONT OF ME ?!
-Yes I’ve seen them. But I also saw how Conner didn’t even look at any of them. Not one second. He had eyes only for you, quite literally. He kept his arm around you, and didn’t even notice their touch at all, to focus on your damn lips and please, tell him to stop because, even though you know I support 100% this relationship, it’s kinda gross to see one of your best friend lusting after your sister so...
-Oh my god Dick, do you have to make it weird ?
-Of course I do, that’s what big brothers are for !
You roll your eye and your brother leaves as Conner comes back.
************
The rest of the evening is going perfectly well, except for that small little thing...An ex of yours, son of a billionaire who owns a pharmaceutical enterprise, comes to talk to you and...Thanks god your brothers are here to stop Conner before he punch “the jerk”.
It’s true though, that this particular ex, Antoine Gregory, always been kind of a jerk, and might have stalked you a little bit after you broke up with him (nothing everyone serious between the two of you...well, you were your father’s daughter you know), until your dad took care of it (to this day, you still have no idea what happened).
**********
Months go by, and you bring Conner to more and more social event, with no accident noticeable. He blends right in, though he still finds it difficult and weird to stand for photos so much...All around town, no one seem to be able to talk about something else but your relationship !
You’re at an important charity when someone, for the first time, ask if marriage is in the question and...The look on Conner’s face. He turns to you, hopeful, waiting for an answer and...oh my God, he totally wants to marry you and you don’t know how to feel about that ! Do you wanna get married ? You love him but...are you ready for THAT kind of commitment ?
A damn wasp stings you, cutting all of your thoughts and saving you from an uncomfortable and awkward conversation as you go to the bathroom to pour some water on the sting
************
The idea that Conner wants to marry doesn’t seem to want to leave your mind and...You know now. You know what you’d say if he asks you :
“No.”
Because you’re not ready for this. You’re not ready for that kind of big jump and...The more you think about it, the more it makes you question your feelings toward your boyfriend.
Do you...actually really love him ?
After all, you always kind of had a crush on him, because he was so mysterious and handsome..;and the fact that M’Gann was dating him made you jealous and all, which spurred even more feelings but...
Was it really more than a crush ? Because if it was, after almost three quarter of a year of dating, you should kinda think about marriage right ? It should be in the question, and even if you weren’t ready for it, it shouldn’t stir so much conflicted feelings in you !
As you lay in your bed, wide awake, you cannot stop thinking about it.
Do you really love Conner Kent ?
And as you receive a text from him saying “Good night my princess, I love you” you realize that...maybe it was just some sort of teenage infatuation.
************
You know you have to tell him. You know it’s not right to keep going as if nothing is happening, as if your feelings towards him start to drastically change, as you realize that;..you were probably never in love with him.
It was just a crush. That returned your feelings and you were happy but...you didn’t love him. You’re sure of it. Because as you realized this, whenever he kissed you, your heart didn’t beat wildly now. Whenever he held you, you didn’t feel as happy as you used to and...You wished you never realized that you weren’t in love, because things were just so easy before.
Now, you have to tell him, and you have no idea how he’ll react. But you have to tell him.
You ask him to follow you in a room far from everyone, and...you tell him.
The look he gives you as you’re explaining what’s on your heart is shattering. You feel so guilty, and so sad for him but...pretending isn’t the right thing to do either. You couldn’t wait for him to one day propose to you and say “no, I don’t love you” could you now ?
It had to be said. Fast. Ripped like a band-aid.
He’s stunned at first and, not quite understanding, he says :
-But...but I love you...
-I know Conner but...I don’t. Not anymore. I...I just...I’m sorry.
-What changed ? What did I do ?
-You didn’t do anything Kon ! It’s not you, I just...I just think I might take a bit too much after my father and be emotionally retarded you know ? Like I thought I loved you but...
-No ?
You shake your head negatively.
-So...So you never loved me ?
His voice is so broken that you’re almost tempted to lie to him and say that you did but...that would give him hope. That would make him think he could win you back and you know it’s just not possible so you agree.
Yes. You never actually loved him.
-All those things you said, you didn't mean them then ?
-I thought I did Conner but...
-No, stop. Shut up. That’s enough. I...I heard enough. And...As you wish.
-I’m so sorry Conner, we can still be friend, I still love you as a friend and that I know and..
-Yes yes. Sure. I...I just need to go.
He leaves the room so fast you barely see him, and when you go outside and Tim comes to you to ask what is going on, you shake your head sadly and say :
-We broke up.
What ? You and Conner broke up ? But you were so in love ! When he asked what happened you just tell him you don’t love him anymore and your brother seems...confused. Shocked. Stunned. You don’t love Conner anymore ? That’s new...But he already knew you were the one that broke up, as he saw tears in his friend’s eyes when he left the YJ headquarters...
************
“Heartbreak” doesn’t even begin to describe what Conner is.
Devastated, destroyed, shattered would be closer...He’s so angry at himself to be so touched by you breaking up with him, it was just a stupid relationship, it wasn’t the end of the world, he’d find love again but...he can’t help it !
He doesn’t wanna find love again. He wants you.
He doesn’t want to move on. He wants you.
In fact, it’s more than that. He knows he will never be able to love again, or to move on...You would forever hold a part of his heart. The biggest part.
He refused to speak to anyone, especially not you and...even more so since every single person he spoke to just seemed more confused about the break up than anything else.
It didn’t make sense that you’d break up with him, you were always annoying everyone with him and it was so obvious you were in love but...Maybe not. Maybe they misread you. Reading a Wayne’s emotions properly was tough after all..
But even your own dad who was against the all relationship to start with didn’t understand. When he talked about it with you you just repeated what you told your brothers : you were just not in love anymore.
Everyone’s pity made him angry, and Conner just...had to go away. He just had to leave. He couldn’t even bear the thought to be in the same building than you without being able to touch you, smell you, kiss you, embrace you...it was too difficult.
Every time he even had a small glance of you, his heart would be torn away once more, and he’d just want to tear up and GOD HE HATED THIS ! Why couldn’t he be strong ? Why ?
-Are you ok kid ?
Conner, startles, makes a huge jump in the air and turns around and...it’s Superman. The man he admires and wants to be close to, but that keeps ignoring him. Yet another one that he loves, but that don't seem to reciprocate, to care at all...Clark keeps a distance with him.
-How’d you find me ?
Conner asks, and Clark smiles.
-I also had a place I liked to go to be alone. My fortress of solitude. And it was similar to this place.
-You followed me.
-I followed you.
-WHy ?
-To see if you were ok.
-You don’t even care. What’s the real reason ?
-I do care. And...I know how tough a break up can be. I know how...
-YOU DON’T KNOW ANYTHING ! The love of your life is Lois ! And you’re with her ! You married her ! You had Jon with her ! I know what you’re going to tell me, that I’ll find someone too one day and blahblahblah but that’s wrong. I won’t find anyone, she was...She was my everything ! My all world ! And I thought...I thought she cared. I thought she really cared, and I guess I was a fool for that. The thing is, I wanted to marry her, to have children with her ! Not now of course, but I wanted all of that. She was my Lois...She...She...and now...She never even loved me Clark...She never even loved me...
Conner falls to his knees or rather...almost does. Because Clark is there. He catches him. And when he starts to sob, to cry and wet Clark’s costume...the man lets him. Because the boy need him. And this time, he can’t ignore it.
He knows. He sees. He understands.
Clark knows how you never even loving him for one second, at least not like he wished you’d love him, was destroying him.
Clark sees how it affects him, not just mentally, but also physically, as if without you he’s just weaker. As if your absence is his actual kryptonite.
Clark understands, but not quite...because Conner’s right. He never experienced the “true love” heartbreak. He was with the love of his life. And...He had to admit that the way Conner looked at and talked about you...yes, yes you were his true love. And oh terrible it was that this was only a one sided one...
Clark would have never come to see the boy if he didn’t know how important it was, how broken Conner was...His Ma’ told him. She saw him for a few seconds and..Yes.
Conner was forever broken. He could never be whole anymore. Not without you.
************
Conner started to avoid the YJ headquarters when M’Gann kept wanting to talk to him. What decided him was this conversation he had with her :
-How are you holding up Conner ?
-Fine.
-Are you sure ? You know you can tell me anything ?
-I also know that if you want to know anything you’ll just read my mind, as you always do.
-True. And...I don’t understand.
-What don’t you understand ?
-She clearly doesn’t love you. I saw it in her mind. She used to but...something changed. I don’t know what. But she doesn’t love you anymore. I checked. And I promise I’m not lying. I wanted to make sure she wasn’t going all “Batman” on you with his “I can’t have a relationship” thing and all and...no. She really doesn’t love you and...
-Why are you telling me this ?
The pain in Conner’s voice broke M’Gann’s heart.
-Because I do love you, and I’m here, I care. More than her. And you used to love me and I’m sure you can find in yourself...
-I’m sorry.
-Uh ?
-If I hurt you just half as much as I’m hurting right now, then I’m sorry. But I...I don’t love you. I love her. With every fiber of my being. And...I’m sorry M’Gann I can’t be talking about this right now.
He leaves, with the intent of not coming back.
And his pain is so vivid, that M’Gann can feel it in her brain. It’s nothing compare to what she felt when he broke up with her. Nothing. And she realizes that...Conner’s love for you is way WAY stronger than anything he ever felt for ANYONE. She wished she could talk to you but you haven’t come to the headquarters for so long...
Come to think of it, it’s a bit weird really...
************
You don’t see Conner for month, and surprisingly...it’s alright. What ? You can’t feel guilty forever. It’s not your fault you’re not loving him !
Your ex, Antoine, the one that used to stalk you, resurface all of a sudden and...you turn him down. Of course you do. Like, there’s a reason you broke up with him. He seems more confused than angry as to why you’re still refusing him but, whatever right ?
Dick and Tim try to talk to you about Conner, but you don't want to. You know what they’re going to say and you’re not ready to be guilt tripped. It’s not your fault you’re not in love anymore...Besides, Conner is their best friend, of course they’ll say something defending him.
No, you don’t wanna fight with them, so you avoid them.
Come to think of it, you avoid most people really. Even your father, while you always loved his presence. Hell, even your mother. And it almost scares you how you don’t really care, how you don’t mind not seeing any of them.
It almost scares you how you start to feel nothing for them, just a mild friendship. How your family becomes...secondary. Hell, even tertiary.
All that’s important right now, is to have fun, and each night, instead of going to patrol, you go out. You haven’t come home to the manor in days and...Bruce knows there’s something wrong with you.
He doens’t recognize his little girl and he just knows. Something is wrong.
***********
Seeing you flirting with those guys on the TV is awful.
Conner doesn’t even know why he’s watching those stupid celebrity news show...Actually, he does know.
It hurts him like hell whenever he sees you with a different guy (or even girl) each night but...at least he sees you. He sees your smile and he can almost remember how good it felt to hold you in his arms, your smell and...
It’s torture. Pure torture.
He’s hurting himself by watching those stupid celebrity news, seeing you in someone else’s arms each time...And your smile, it’s not the smile he loves so much...it’s almost..wicked...
One night, as he watches you once more on the TV, something happens.
But of course it’d happen someday. You were the famous (Y/N) Wayne. Of course they’d target you in such an easy place to access !
The camera cuts just as a few heavily armed men enters the vicinity. One shot. One shot and the camera cuts. The last image being your face as the gun turns to you...
He doesn’t even think about it, before he knows it, he’s out.
************
He arrives even before your father. Actually, maybe your father doesn’t even know what’s going on yet...And Conner isn’t about to wait for him.
Those guys have guns. Pointed at you. He has to save you...
The nightclub is now empty, expect for you and them.
You don't even seem scared and...what is going on with you ? He doesn’t recognize you, it’s as if you don’t feel ANYTHING anymore...
He quickly makes up a plan to save you but of course..nothing goes like he wanted it to go. Nothing.
He enters the place discreetly, and a terrible silence surrounds him.
Those men, they don’t utter a word, they just point their guns at you.
He has to do something about it and...Maybe distracting them? But it doesn’t go as planned. Not at all.
He does distract them. And knocks them all out. But as he turns to you to see if your alright, and as he can see not even an ounce of thankfulness in your eyes...a voice resonates in the club.
-I knew you would come.
Conner turns around and...Lex Luthor. His “father” (he was created with a mix of Clark’s and Lex’s DNA). Conner asks, as he unties you :
-What do you want ?!
-You. And your girl there, gave me the perfect way to reach for you. Especially since your little...break up. I need you Conner, by my side, for a little...project of mine. And now that you weren’t always with her, or that her damn dad...yes I know who he is...isn’t....It was fairly easy to kidnap her. She didn’t even fight.
Conner turned around to look at you and...no reaction. You have absolutely no reaction, as you’re standing besides him. And it just doesn't look like you at all, normally, you’d be fuming, and those armed guys ? You’d have kicked at least three of their asses before being submitted down ! What was happening to you ? He’s about to touch you, for the first time in agonizing months, he’s about to finally touch you, feel your skin again, as he aims for your bared shoulder (sexy dress by the way) but...he suddenly feels weak. Oh so weak.
Kryptonite. It’s kryptonite. And as he falls on the floor, he looks at you and...you’re looking back at him with absolutely no feelings in your eyes. Nothing. As if you were empty...He barely hears Lex’s voice as he says :
-I lied, I don’t actually need you. Just...pieces of you. I understood long ago that I couldn’t control you, but creating a new being with parts of you ? Yes, that I can do.
Conner doesn’t feel fear as he sees, from the corner of his eyes, Lex Luthor coming closer and closer no...all his focus is on you. And it hurts. More than the kryptonite.
It hurts to see you like that, to see you looking at him with such little feelings...did you say that you still felt friendship ? Yet, there is nothing in your wonderful (E/C) eyes right now...Or...is there really nothing ?
As the light of the kryptonite illuminates your face and Lex crouches next to Conner, your brow furrows. And when he says :
-I have no idea what’s wrong with you kid, but thank you for not doing anything right now haha. I know the bat, and I know the cat, I was assuming their daughter would be a pain in the ass but I guess not and...
Yes. This makes you react. A kick. A nice kick to the chin gets him just fine.
Lex falls backward, and he’s pretty sure you broke his jaw. Damn good, powerful and well placed kicked. Definitely Batman’s daughter.
But something is wrong with you. It’s like you acted out of automatism rather than because you really wanted to defend Conner. And if there’s one thing that Lex is good at is...taking opportunities.
You have fast reflexes, but you feel like your mind is clouded and...Lex’s kryptonite sharp knife is coming fast toward you and...it never hits you.
Conner.
He stood up, he somehow fought the kryptonite and stood up and...the knife is deep in his stomach. And...
Your fists move on their on.
One punch. Two. Three. Four. Five. Six. Seven. Eight...you loose count.
You’re beating Lex Luthor to a pulp, that’s all you know. At some point, someone is taking you away and...
-Dad...
-Yes, yes I’m here my little one...
-Conner...
What happened ? Why do you feel like you missed a lot ? Those past few months are such a blur...And Conner.
-CONNER !!
-It’s ok, it’s ok he’s...
-CONNER !! CONNER !!
It seems like it’s the only thing you can scream, and as you see him on the floor, bleeding out, Tim next to him already trying to fix him...Your heart breaks.
Were you going to loose him ? What happened ? Why was he stabbed ? And by what ? By who ?
Why did you feel like you already lost him ? No. No you couldn’t loose him. No !
He wanted to marry you, and you wanted that too, not now, but you wanted and...No, you couldn’t loose him !
-CONNER !!
You’re almost sure you heard him whisper, his voice way too weak, “(Y/N)” but nothing is certain anymore and...black. Everything is black.
************
You wake up in a hospital room, and you’re pretty sure it’s on the League’s Watchtower. It just doesn’t seem like any hospital room and...Your dad is there, asleep next to you. Your brothers too. And Conner. But...why is he so far in the corner of the room ?
-Conner...
You whisper. Your voice is hoarse and your throat hurts but...he ears you. Of course he does.
He opens his eyes and looks at you and...he looks so awful.
And he doesn’t approach you...At least, not until you raise a hand weakly, and he finally dares to come. Slowly. It’s so unlike him...
-What...happened...?
You barely remembers and...He explains.
And you understand. Oh you understand.
Months of being heartbroken and lost made him...afraid of you almost. Afraid that you’d hurt him further. He explains the all breakup, and how you slowly drifted further away each days from your family...but you don’t remember any of this ? You love Conner. You know it. No one ever made you feel like this. And your family ? It’s everything to you.
You don’t remember any of that. The last thing you remember is...
-The Wasp sting. It’s what...changed you. Your ex, that...jerk. His father has a shady pharmaceutical enterprise where they did tests and...they have a “feeling inhibitor”. Suppose to be used on humans to make fearless soldiers. But the idiot thought it only worked on love. thought you’d stop loving me and he would have a chance again. Your dad gave you an antidote and I...i...
His voice breaks and your hand running in his hair is the best thing he ever felt. This nightmare was over. You were back...
As Conner explains, things start to make a bit more sense. Antoine released the wasp right next to you and you killed it as it stung you were the only one touched. And oh...that’s why it seemed like you just got out of a bad dream...
But you don’t care about yourself. You only care about him. And the more he talks about those past few months, the more he leans in your touch, and the more you feel awful.
-I’m so sorry Conner...I’m so sorry...
-It wasn’t you...
-I’m still sorry...I love you...I love you I didn’t lie, I love you. I love you so much...
Conner’s heart flutters and..yes. You love him. So much that you outmatched an incredibly powerful drug that killed all your feelings as Lex stabbed him. You loved him so much that your mind ignored the CHEMICAL drugs and saved him. Because his life was in danger, you overcome the impossible...
You loved him. You cared. And that’s really all he wanted in life.
You were back...
You went to grab him but accidentally touch the area where he got stabbed, that wasn’t healed properly yet and...he winces. You pull your hand away but he grabs it. He’s not about to let you go again. And as he wraps your arms around his shoulders, sits on the bed and bend down to kiss you...He feels alive once again. You’re here. And you love him. You truly love him. His feelings are returned. Well...not exactly :
It is impossible that you love him as much as he loves you.
But still. You do love him. And as he deepens the kiss he cannot help but think about...
-LET GO OFF MY SISTER FOR GOD’S SAKE !!
Damian somehow managed to jump on your boyfriend’s back (yes, your boyfriend, he’s yours, you’re his) and woke everyone up and...you gotta admit, Conner trying to untie your brother from his back, Damian trying to bite him, and your dad and other brothers waking up with a start and automatically going on a fighting stance ? Perfect. Perfectly hilarious.
