Bart sat on the roof of the Titans Tower, watching the sun come up. It just isn't fair! he thought. I was almost ready, and then they got together! And they're so happy, I can't break them up.
His musings were interrupted by the sound of his pager going off. With a sigh he stood up and-

"What's up?" he asked as he decelerated.
Robin nodded, and then started the meeting. "Okay guys, we've got some stuff to do today, and I'm gonna hand out the assignments. Cassie, Star? You're on patrol first shift today. Rae, BB I need you two to see if you can get a lead on that smuggling case in downtown. Cy, we finally got some funds to replace those parts we've needed for the motor pool, so get whatever you need. Bart, you're on surveillance with me and Kon. Any questions?"
Bart was fighting to keep breathing. He'd been trying for months to avoid just this kind of situation. "Um, Robin? Why do we need three people on surveillance? I mean I'm sure Cy could use some help…"
But Robin was already shaking his head. "Cy can handle a simple parts pickup just fine, I'm sure. And with all the smuggling activity, I need help watching all the data coming in. I wouldn't want to miss something, and then find out about it an hour later."
Bart sagged. "Ah, okay. Well, I guess I better get down there. See you in a few minutes."

Bart decelerated in the monitor room, and slumped down in a chair. Great, not only do I have to spend the day watching monitors, but I have to be with them while I do it.
Bart was pretty sure he was going to get yelled at. At no point this morning had his attention been focused on the monitors. Quite frankly, if Slade had decided to host a "Villains Only" luau on the front lawn of the Tower, Bart would have missed it completely.
Not that it's entirely my fault.
All morning, Kon had been coming onto Robin as often as he could. And the usually business-like Boy wonder had returning, if not all, then most of these advances. The only things they hadn't done were make-out, and outright fuck.
And of course that's probably only because I'm right here-
"Bart?"
He jumped. Damnit! How can he be so quiet!
"Yeah Robin?"
"Well, uh, you seem distracted. And since this isn't the first time you've been like this, I thought I'd ask if you'd like to talk about it."
The young speedster started to shake his head, and then froze as Robin continued.
"Especially since I think it has something to do with me and Kon, because that's when you first started having these moods. When Kon and I became a couple. So what's up?"
A dozen lies sprang to mind instantly, but to his horror he heard himself telling the Boy Wonder everything.
"I've had a crush on you since I first met you, and over the last year or so I realized that I'd fallen for you. I kept trying to get the guts up to tell you, but whenever I did the alarm would go off, or you'd be called back to Gotham. And then I finally had it together, I was going to tell you, and you and Kon came out and told us you were a couple and I really need togonowandI'mreallysorry-"

throughthedamnthing-
Bart collapsed onto his bed, shaking with tears. Why did I tell him that? Now he'll be mad at me or, worse, think I'm just a kid with a crush.
It felt like hours before he heard his door buzzer go off. For a second, he thought about phasing out, running away and never coming back. Just as he was about to, though, the door slid open to reveal Robin and Kon standing outside. Oh, shit!
Robin hesitated. "Can we come in?"
Bart nodded, not trusting himself to speak.
After they settled down on the bed, both facing him Robin started to speak.
"First, you know I love Kon, right? And no matter what, I'm not going to leave him."
Bart just nodded again.
"But being with Kon has taught me some things about love. And one of those things is 'the more the merrier'". And as a matter of fact, Kon could probably explain that better than I can so-"
Kon smiled. "What Wonderbread here is trying to say is, Kryptonian relationships don't always have just two partners. Sometimes there's three or four, and in one case that Superman told me about, twelve. That's a little much for me, though. But if you're willing to share, three sounds about right…"
Bart stared at them in shock. Share? As in they want me to be with them?
"And we'd be what? A couple? Trouple? Group thing?"
Robin laughed. "We'd be partners. All three of us, together. A unit. That is, if you don't mind that Kon hogs the blankets."
"We'd all sleep together?!"
Kon leered theatrically. "Yep. It's a package deal. You get Robin, but I come with him. And we get y-"
Bart didn't give him the chance to finish. He was too busy tackling Robin.
Finis+
Sorry it took so long to finish this. I kept losing my mental place in the story.
I suppose I could go on and give graphic, nasty three-way descriptions. But not enough people read this damn thing to make it worth it. So if you want them you have to review and tell me.
