Takes place before Keith gets kidnapped.

Star City was boring. Keith was rich, and he had a private jet. It may have taken him quite a few weeks to plan it, he finally decided to take visit Gotham City. Ollie and Dinah had connections in that neck of the woods, so he wasn't without supervision. In fact, even the papparazzi had an eye on the young Queen.

The jet landed and Keith somehow managed to go incognito in Gotham City. He stopped into a closeby Starbucks for some coffee. He also knew that the particular neighborhood he was in had some interesting sights to see.

	"Right." The barista looks momentarily confused and Marissa shakes her head. "He wants a misto. A venti misto." Turning her attention back to Keith, "they're a little weird here when 'celebrities' show up. So what brings you to Gotham? It's our legendary cheeseburgers, isn't it?"

	"Haha! Not so much. Star City is pretty boring right around now." Not much crime to fight lately, too. "I figured I might have a better time 'round these parts. Maybe meet a good lookin' lady." Check that off the list. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Mmhmm. I see. Well Gotham's usually far more interesting by night," And absolutely infested, "but I'll be happy to show you around. At least until you find a hot chick though I don't know you'll find any more awesome than me." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I was thinking the same thing," he replied. "And a tour would be quite lovely as well!" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"You're cute. Okay. Then you're mine for the day. Tell me what you'd like to do. I have my dad's credit card. Money is no object." She also had the Ferrari. She'd spring that on him in a bit. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	That was one step in the right direction. He just hoped Bruce Wayne didn't swoop in from out of the darkness and rip him apart. "Hmm. I think the pier would be a good start." For a first date. :] (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"The pier? Done. I even know a shortcut." She grabbed her beverage, waited for him to take his and then boldly grabbed his hand, leading him to the bright red Ferrari parked just up the street. Illegally parked. "I hope you like fast cars." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Keith grabbed the drink real quick-like and let Marissa lead the way. The pair were catching stares (and camera flashes) as they exited the Starbucks, but it was whatever. "Are you kidding? I love fast cars." The papparazzi was going to have a field day. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Excellent. Get in." She hopped behind the wheel and in an instant, they were peeling away from the Starbucks and the press was scrambling to follow. "Do those jerks follow you around at home?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	sonic_arrow 2010-03-29 02:43 am UTC (link)
	"Oh yes. Yes they do. They kill the fun of being a teenager." And they make it hard to sneak out at night for hero-ing stuff. "Of course, it helps to have a big house. Friends can be over, and the Camerabots can't get in." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"And having a forever-long private driveway really helps, too. The mansion is so far out. It's nice though for keeping the weirdos away. I'm still not quite used to them following me around, but hey. As long as they get my good side." She grins. "So, hot stuff...how bad do you think our dads will freak?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	sonic_arrow 2010-03-29 03:06 am UTC (link)
	He cracked a smile at that. Even the newspapers had reported about the length of her driveway once. "I 'dunno, sweet thing. I'd like to think my old man is cheering me on from the sidelines. Yours... I hope doesn't swoop in from out of the darkness and rip my heart out." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Bruce is generally too preoccupied." She paused. "And in general my father doesn't have that sort of reputation." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	sonic_arrow 2010-03-29 03:17 am UTC (link)
	"Then I have nothing to worry about." He grinned, and then laughed at a few memories. "My mom told me once that I'm a father's worst nightmare." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	batdaughter 2010-03-29 03:26 am UTC (link)
	"Well...I'm every mother's worst nightmare. Game on." She grinned, eyes gleaming with pure trouble. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Trouble is supposed to come in triplets, and they had that. Keith Queen, Marissa Wayne, and a Ferrari. "Oh, this is only supposed to happen in dreams!" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	batdaughter 2010-03-29 03:33 am UTC (link)
	"Stay the night and I promise, it gets far better." Was that innuendo? Why yes...yes it was. A little bold but hey. It was Marissa. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	sonic_arrow 2010-03-29 03:40 am UTC (link)
	Did she just? She did, didn't she? "That sounds like a good time bound to happen." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	batdaughter 2010-03-29 03:43 am UTC (link)
	She did. Oh yes she did. "Hope you don't mind doing the walk of shame, Queen." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	sonic_arrow 2010-03-29 03:47 am UTC (link)
	"Hey. Hey. I can't call it shame when it's with you." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Wanna skip the pier?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I was hoping you'd ask that." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	batdaughter 2010-03-29 03:56 am UTC (link)
	"Good. Because I'm already driving home." She shifts gears and the car goes even faster. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	sonic_arrow 2010-03-29 04:01 am UTC (link)
	He grins, and then finally notices something. "It seems we've forgotten all about our drinks!" And he takes a gulp. It's nice and lukewarm by the time he got to it. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
