Courtney and Cameron

**Courtney and Cameron** is the friendship and romantic pairing between Justice Society of America members Courtney Whitmore and Cameron Mahkent. They met during Courtney's first few weeks at Blue Valley High, where he was one of the few students who were nice to her and others. They shared their first kiss in front of a lattice fence after she encouraged him to channel his powers using love. He created snow that she called magical.

They are affectionately dubbed **Camney** by the fandom.

## History

### A Budding Friendship

Courtney Whitmore moves to Blue Valley from California, starting her sophomore year at Blue Valley High School. During her second day at the school, she gets food from the cafeteria and is walking towards her table when Cameron Mahkent is leaving. They pass each other and lock eyes. She looks over her shoulder at him and he returns the sentiment. When she turns forward, she has a small smile.

On the day of the school talent show, Cameron leans against his locker reading a book. He takes notice of Joey Zarick, a bubbly student and prospective magician, showing Courtney a card trick. Because Cameron is behind Courtney, he can see the card she picks versus the one Joey holds up for everyone, asking if it's her card. Courtney, noting the small crowd around them, exclaims it is to a wave of applause for Joey. She turns around and catches Cameron staring at her. She smiles at him and walks away. Cameron watches her leave and presumably sees her interaction with Yolanda Montez, who had the word "SLUT" painted over her locker in white paint.

The next day, a beautiful and colorful floral mural covers the defamatory word on Yolanda's locker. In math class, Cameron isn't paying attention to the teacher and instead, is sketching flowers in his notebook. Courtney notices him and deducts that he is the one who drew the mural on Yolanda's locker. She confronts him about it, but he initially brushes her off until she introduces herself as Courtney Whitmore. He looks back at her introducing himself, but she already knows his name - since both their names start with C, his name was easy to remember. They smile at one another until the teacher interrupts them as this is math class, not The Dating Game. Cameron and Courtney awkwardly smile and go back to their notebooks.

### Star-Crossed Timing

After a few weeks, Cameron arrives home from school and his father greets him. Cameron doesn't respond and keeps walking, lost in thought, and looking upset over something. Jordan notices and calls to him in a slightly sterner tone that catches Cameron's attention. He turns around and admits that the Homecoming dance is coming up. Jordan nods and coaxes the issue from his son. Cameron admits that there's this girl that he wants to go with, but is nervous to ask her out of fear of rejection. Jordan admits that he was hesitant to ask Christine out, admitting that he was scared as there was another man pursuing her. Cameron smiles as Jordan tells his story, eventually asking what his father did since there was another man. Jordan nonchalantly states that he killed him which makes Cameron laugh, as he believes it to be a joke. Jordan then tells Cameron that he was put on the earth to find love, and should be happy. Take a risk and ask her. Cameron thanks his father and begins to walk away, then tells Jordan that mom would want him to be happy too before walking off.

At the Homecoming game that night, Cameron slides into the empty bleacher spot beside Courtney, much to her happiness. They exchange hellos and he nervously fidgets with his hands, before suddenly turning to look at her. He then asks if she wants to go to the Homecoming dance with him, to which she tries to muffle her excitement. She flounders with her words until she manages to tell him that she wants to go, but already has plans. He is disappointed but she clarifies that it isn't to go to the dance, it's to hang out with Cindy Burman. Cameron is surprised by this but she suddenly states that she can reschedule her plans with Cindy, as she wants to go to the dance. Cameron grins happily and chuckles as Courtney moves past him to cancel with Cindy.

Unfortunately, Courtney and Cameron never get to go on their date, because Courtney is in a “car accident” that injures her hands. She spends the night in the hospital before her release. Barbara, who works with Jordan Mahkent, invites him and his family over for dinner. Courtney opens the door, and sees Cameron, trying to hide her surprise. Cameron greets her, and she stammers a welcome to the Mahkent's, inviting them in. Cameron walks in, and Courtney says hi to him, to which he replies with "hi", again. They share an awkward laugh before Jordan introduces himself to Courtney, and Cameron's grandparents hug Courtney, expressing their concern for her after the accident.

Courtney sits next to Cameron during the dinner, as Pat reveals that chicken dumplings are a Dugan family tradition. Jordan asks if he can share one of Mahkent's traditions - a Norwegian grace. After they say grace, a slightly confused Courtney looks over at Cameron, who chuckles not to look at him for a translation, as he took French. Jordan asks Courtney about her gymnastics skills, claiming that Cameron told him about her. Courtney looks at Cameron before saying that she was a gymnast. Barbara cuts in, as Courtney was the best on the team in Valley Village, as Cameron keeps his eyes on Courtney. Jordan says he's always admired athletes, as Barbara asks Cameron about his artistic skills, mentioning how Courtney's talked about him too. Cameron hesitates before replying he mainly uses paints. Lily, his grandmother, adds that he's just like his mother.

When Courtney abruptly takes Pat with her into the kitchen to talk after deducing that Jordan is the supervillain Icicle, she looks over at the table to Cameron, who is looking back at her, giving her a smile. Courtney smiles back before finishing her conversation with Pat, worrying that Cameron might be like his father.

At the end of the night, Cameron puts on his jacket and walks to the door, Courtney walking next to him. He sees her slightly disturbed expression and asks if something's wrong. She tells him that she always looks like that when she eats too much, and he buys it. He tells her that it was "really great" to see her, so she smiles awkwardly but stays silent. Cameron then asks her out, saying "maybe we could do something soon," to which Courtney replies with a hesitant "sure." He leans in for a hug, which surprises a wary Courtney. She returns the hug, and he smiles at her again before leaving. Jordan walks over, telling Courtney that the reason he had come for dinner was to "meet the girl” that his son “has been talking so much about". He adds that he approves of her.

Cameron's father dies in a tragic accident, leaving Cameron an orphan, solely in the care of his grandparents. He leaves Blue Valley for a while, but returns over the summer. He makes plans to retouch the Blue Valley mural. Yolanda and Courtney spot Cameron, though Yolanda tells Courtney not to interact with him. Courtney wants to see how he's doing after Jordan's death. Yolanda reminds Courtney that she can't without drawing suspicion or admitting what really happened to Jordan. She advises Courtney to stay away from him. That afternoon, Courtney walks home when she sees Cameron painting a mural on the side of a building. She approaches him, so they talk about him being back and she asks about the mural. He's planning to alter it to honor his dad. They converse for a while, laughing and smiling before she leaves. Sofus and Lily watch the scene unfold, with Lily wanting to tell Cameron the truth about "that wicked girl", but Sofus convinces her to let him be happy.

As the days pass, Cameron continues painting his mural but seeks refuge in the high school when the weather turns bad. He talks to his art teacher, Paul Deisinger, in the hallway. Cameron starts to walk away, drops his sketchbook, and Paul scoops it up to flip through the sketches. He notices that a few sketches have a likeness to Courtney Whitmore. Cameron tries to brush it off as just fooling around, but Paul smiles that Cameron has found his muse. The teacher softens that he had a muse back when he was doing the greatest work of his life. He then relents that he helps others find their muse. Courtney and Yolanda appear behind them and Courtney happily greets Cameron. An awkward silence falls before Yolanda tells Courtney they have important things to discuss like the weather. Courtney agrees and says goodbye to Cameron, heading into the class. Cameron turns around depleted over his lack of words, so Paul encourages him that his art can say everything he can't.

Courtney walks home with Yolanda when they pass Cameron, who is painting the mural. She reminds Yolanda that they can't let the rest of their lives fall apart, no matter what they're focusing on. She tells Yolanda to text her if anything big happens, and the two go their separate ways. Courtney joins Cameron across the street, complimenting how far along his mural is coming. She loves the colors and asks if that's his father, which it is. A moment passes before Cameron admits he wants to show her something even though it's a bit weird. He usually does still life but has been trying his hand at people. He shows her his sketchbook which has a sketch of Courtney. She realizes it's her and smiles happily.

The pair go back to the Mahkent residence where they admire the gardens as Cameron explains it was the selling point for his father. Cameron's both loved the yard so they bought it for the garden. His grandparents want to move away from Blue Valley, but he doesn't as this is his home until he graduates. She asks what his plans are for after graduation. He wanted to go to art school like his mom but after everyone has told him how much his father impacted their lives, being an artist seems selfish. She thinks denying the world of his talents could be selfish too. She turns back to him as he stands closer, and they nearly share a kiss.

Their moment is interrupted by Yolanda's incessant texting, alerting Courtney to rapid changes in the weather. She awkwardly admits that she has to go and he worries that the sketches freaked her out. She assures him that isn't the case, even giving him permission to sketch her as many times as he wants. She has to go but he solemnly admits that she did this to him last year. She's always leaving or not showing up. She promises this is the last time but has to go. She gathers her things and leaves the residence. He leans pensively against the wall, gazing out the window as Lily watches from across the house through a window.

The next day, Courtney and Pat visit BVHS to examine the damage done to the art room. Cameron arrives and questions what they're doing, with Courtney explaining that they volunteered to help clean up. He asks if they know what happened to Mr. Deisinger, but Pat only knows that the man is receiving psychiatric care. Cameron emotionally asks why bad things keep happening to good people in Blue Valley. Before she can answer, Pat interrupts as he's discovered a painting of Cindy Burman holding the black diamond. He and Courtney realize that she has the diamond, with Cameron revealing that Cindy is back in Blue Valley as she tries to talk with him about his father. He asks what Cindy is holding but Courtney and Pat play it off as not knowing why she's holding a diamond. Pat and Courtney quickly explain away their exit, Courtney promises to find Cameron later.

On July 3rd, Courtney feels a tap on her shoulder and instinctively presses the perpetrator against a wall, but quickly releases him when she sees it's Cameron. They exchange apologies for the misunderstandings. He and his father used to set up the town for the fourth of July and he wondered if she wanted to help him hang decorations. They are interrupted by a text message from Mike, who is beginning his training. Courtney wishes him luck while Cameron, now disappointed, understands if she has to leave or is too busy. She pauses but then pockets the phone, taking Pat's advice to try and balance a normal life. The pair walk off together and spend the day laughing and hanging decorations, completely oblivious to the world around them. At school, Courtney texts with Cameron and they send one another photos of their time together and selfies.

### Reconnecting

A new school year starts, with Cameron experiencing behavioral changes as his powers continue to develop. He has outbursts in classes and struggles to paint. Courtney notices him struggling, but finds herself distracted. One day, Courtney talks with Cindy Burman at her locker, but eyes Cameron as he walks by them to get to his locker. Cindy notices the fleeting stares and smirks, asking if Courtney has found balance in her life. The girl scoffs that she's balanced and they bicker for a moment before Cindy walks away. Courtney walks over to Cameron's locker, smiling nervously as she greets him. He looks at her coolly but doesn't say anything. He puts his book in his locker and walks off. She watches him go, confused.

The next school day, Courtney straightens up her locker when Cameron walks over. He apologizes for being a jerk to her and everyone, but most importantly, to her. She asks if everything is okay and he chuckles. Everyone has been asking him that lately. She asks if it is. He flexes his hand then admits he's not sure, but he isn't ready to talk about it just yet. He apologizes but she tells him it's okay. They don't have to talk about it. Thy can just go for a walk together if he wants. They progressively move closer to one another throughout the conversation, now only few feet apart as she looks up at him expectantly.

They walk down Main Street in silence. She notices his distant look and playfully nudges him with her shoulder. He gives a small smile as she smirks mischievously. They pass the theater, now standing closer, though still in silence. Her fingers flex out towards his and they brush. He loops his pinky around her ring finger, but jerks away a few seconds later. They stop walking and she turns to look at him, her happy expression fading. He looks to her to say he has to go, apologizing. She tells him it's okay and he pauses for a minute, then walks away. She watches him leave with a sigh, before walking in the opposite direction.

A few days later, Cameron closes his locker and walks into the art room. Courtney watches him and quickly follows him. She pauses for a moment at the door then calls out to him, walking inside. She closes the door behind her as he stares at the blank canvas. She asks what he's doing, setting her bag by the door. He's quitting art class, which surprises her. He can't do this anymore. It's time to admit that the artistic side of himself is gone. She refuses to accept that it's gone, as he loves art. He's just been through so much and if anything's going to help him heal, it will be the things that he loves. He painfully tells her to stop, but she wants him to let her help him. He thinks she can't help him, so she reiterates that she can. He firmly tells her that she can't, but she puts a hand on his shoulder and tells him it's okay. He contorts his body and loses control over his powers, letting out a shout as ice explodes from his body, which hardens into a block of ice. The blast knocks Courtney onto the floor, throwing the canvases away. She sits up in time to watch icicles forming on the ceilings and sprouting from the flooring around Cameron, who is breathing heavily. He looks down at his hands then over to her.

She locks the door and picks up a stool, gesturing for him to take a seat. He fearfully asks if she's okay, though she only returns the question. He asks if she's not scared. She admits to feeling a bunch of stuff. He looks up and says that his grandparents call it cryokinesis, a gift that his family has had for generations. As they talk, flurries of snow fall around them, with Courtney pulling her jacket tighter around her. He explains that his family used their gift to help people. His grandmother and grandfather want him to do the same to carry on his dad's legacy, but he doesn't know what that means. He knows that must sound insane to some like her. She questions the sentiment. He clarifies that he means normal. She hesitates then starts to tell him about his father, but he interrupts to say that his death wasn't an accident - he was killed. She tries to act surprised, asking what happened to him. Cameron doesn't know as his grandparents won't tell him. He knows that Jordan died trying to help people. This is why he was avoiding her before. He could really hurt her. She's not afraid and he hangs his head, breathing shakily.

Cameron and Courtney walk down Main Street, passing his mural of Jordan. They stop to look at it for a moment before continuing on. They arrive at the Mahkent garden, walking by the gazebo. The mural was the last thing he was able to paint before his hands stopped working. She asks if he's ever tried using this gift like he does his art. They drop their bags by the gazebo posts, standing under the twinkle lights to talk. He asks what she means. She explains how he expresses himself so beautifully through color and paint, wondering if he can do it through the ice. He realizes she wants him to express how he feels. He looks away before meeting her gaze again. He could have really hurt her. She knows it's only because he was alone and afraid. But he's not alone now.

He asks how she's calm about this, and she chuckles awkwardly as she fidgets. He decides it's too dangerous, but that's only if he lets it be. She knows because she knows him and he's sweet and kind and thoughtful. Someone once told her that emotions are what fuels them. It affects everything they do and how they do it. By embracing the love and hope she had for the people she cares about, it worked. She tells him to think of all the love has for his mom and dad and what they mean to him. Let his gift out while feeling that. He doesn't want to hurt her again, but she assures him he won't and takes his hands. He takes a deep breath and closes his eyes before letting out a burst of power. Courtney laughs gleefully as snow falls from the sky around them. They hold out their hands as it falls. She stares at it in wonder, remarking that it's magical. He meets her gaze, responding, "like you". He smiles and holds her hands as they move closer, until they finally kiss under the falling snow.

### A New Relationship

Following their kiss, Cameron walks Courtney home. She thanks him for walking her home, even though he didn't have to. He just wasn't ready for the night to end. She plans to do more research tonight to find out more about what she can do and why. He questions how she's going to research what he can do. She nervously says Wikipedia, making them both chuckle. She insists they'll figure this out together, touching the palm of his hand with her fingertip. He looks at her softly, as she's good at making his world feel less dark. They kiss on the front porch, the world spinning around them. When the kiss ends, she remarks that he's good at that. He'll see her tomorrow, and they say goodnight. She watches him leave then walks into the house.

Pat notices Courtney's happiness and asks why she's smiling, though she doesn't tell him anything. In the morning, she texts with Cameron happily and only half-pays attention to Sylvester. Courtney has chemistry class with Cindy, taking this time to confide in her about Cameron, since Cindy won't judge her. She admits she's been hanging out with Cameron more, though he's in a bad place right about his dad. She feels guilty about what happened. Cindy insists she can't tell him what happened. He'll be just fine as he's basically a nice guy, though he's not nice to her. She likes the idea of her and Cameron, which means a lot to Courtney. Cindy knows that no one wants to hear how awful their father is, or was. After all, she's sure Courtney would rather still think Starman is her father instead of some degenerate who didn't want her. She laments that Courtney doesn't want him to feel like they do.

Courtney, Rick, Yolanda, and Beth sit together at lunch. Courtney is busy looking up the Ice Inn on her phone and doesn't pay attention to her friends discussion, which annoys Rick and Yolanda. Cameron walks up behind Courtney and stops next to her. He greets with a hi and a smile. She returns the hi back at him, smiling sheepishly. He looks at the table and asks how it's going, trying to be friendly. Rick scoffs as they're in the middle of a conversation. He tells Cameron to get lost. The boy's kind demeanor falters as he asks what exactly Rick's problem is. Rick retorts that he's staring right at him. Courtney snaps at Rick to knock it off. She apologizes to Cameron and claims they're in the middle of a project. Beth chimes in that it's for the Science Fair. He didn't mean to interrupt and apologizes to Courtney, who tells him it's okay. He'll see her later and walks off.

With him gone, Courtney throws her arms in the air in exasperation as she looks at Rick. He hopes she's not hanging out with that creep, earning a cold look. She firmly says he's not a creep and not to say that. Beth intervenes as it's kind of bad timing as they're trying to find a killer and need her. Yolanda agrees, as Sylvester's great, but Rick adds he has a temper. Courtney snaps back, asking if Rick doesn't. He looks to the ceiling in annoyance. She insists she's focused on the case, but she's helping Cameron too. They're the JSA they're supposed to help people. Beth asks what Cameron Mahkent needs help with, but Courtney doesn't answer. She's finally found someone she likes, questioning why they can't just be happy for her. Truthfully, Yolanda can't, not when it's him. She's sorry but starts to talk about his dad. Courtney snaps back that Cameron isn't anymore his father then she is hers. That's not fair to him or to her. She stands and grabs her bag, tearfully storming away from the table.

Cameron puts his books in his locker when Cindy approaches. She heard he's dating Courtney, which provokes him to ask why that matters to her. She and Courtney are friends now, real BFFs, so she's just looking out for her girl. He's doubtful, which she understands, but people do change. She asks if he's changed, a statement that confuses him. She asks if he's told Courtney about summer art camp, between second and third grade. She guesses it was less of a camp and more of an institution where little angry boys could learn to stop breaking things. He slowly asks why she's doing this. She presses on by asking if the walls were padded. If there were shrinks talking about his mommy. He looks at her and breathes heavily, clenching his jaw as his eyes begin to freeze over. Her face falls at the sight but he blinks the ice away. He doesn't know why she wants to hurt him, but everything she just said, proves that she hasn't changed. She smirks with maybe and saunters off. He slams his locker shut and glares after her.

After school, Cindy tracks down Courtney to Richie Rock's Diner to confess that she talked to Cameron about her as a favor. She wanted to push Cameron's buttons to try and trigger him and she did. He has his family's powers. The lack of surprise from Courtney makes Cindy realize she already knew. Courtney admits she's going to help him control them. Cindy scoffs, telling her to cut bait, new girl. She's read this story and it only ends one way.

That night, Courtney and Cameron sit at the Mahkent residence in front of a crackling fireplace. She opens a book about the Ice Inn, asking if he thinks it's beautiful. Not taking his eyes off her, he agrees. She smirks as she's talking about the ice hotel. He chuckles as he tries to correct that he was too. She thinks this could be a perfect example of what he might be able to do. He thinks they should go there sometime. He opens his hand and swirls a circle around his palm, the building slowly manifesting in ice form. He looks up at her as she looks in amazement. He brought the ice hotel to her. She takes it and looks it over. She remarks it's beautiful and cold. Cameron smiles up at Courtney.

The next morning, in a beautiful garden at the Mahkent Residence, Cameron takes deep breaths as the birds chirp in the background. Courtney watches from a few feet away. She reminds him that how he feels affects what he does, so if he's scared or angry, the ice will be too. But if he keeps focusing on the good, though he loves and the love she knows he has for the rest of the world, then his heart will control it. He continues to breathe with his eyes closed. He still doesn't understand how she knows all of this. She flashes back to Sylvester teaching her, smiling that her coach told her the same thing. She quickly adds it was the gymnastics team coach back in California. He warns her to keep her distance, but she's not worried. He opens his eyes which are white with ice. He lets out an ice breath as she tells him to focus. He holds out his palms and snows flurries down with gusts of cold wind. A statue forms in the center of the garden, rising to several feet above them. He smiles as he does it. She nods back at him and he gazes up at the statue, which is of his dad. She looks a bit uneasy before complimenting its beauty.

The couple heads inside only to find Pat, Barbara, Sofus, and Lily talking in Jordan's old office. Courtney calls out to her mom and Pat, asking what they're doing here. She questions why her parents didn't call her. Barbara reminds Courtney that she was ignoring everyone. Cameron reveals that Courtney was helping him on a new sculpture, which unnerves Lily, though Sofus is sure it's fine. Courtney presses there was no reason for her parents to come all the way out here. Pat shrugs it off, as if he hadn't come then he never would have gotten to try lutefisk, which now enters the pantheon of great fish. It's right up there with catfish, grouper, and tilapia. His humor lands hollow, prompting Pat to think they should get going.

They don't want to overstay their welcome, as they've all been so hospitable. Like he said, they just wanted to come by, say hello, and wish the teens good luck. Sofus looks to Cameron - as long as their children are both happy, that's all that matters. He looks to Lily and urges her that Cameron and Courtney being happy is all that's important now. She gives a brisk nod, glaring at Courtney. Cameron and Courtney hold hands. He later walks them to the door and says goodbye to Courtney.

That night, she sits on her bed when Barbara knocks on the door. She brings in a vase of beautiful flowers that Cameron just dropped off. Courtney is surprised by the gesture. She grins happily and takes the card from the bouquet, which now sits on her end table. Barbara pauses at the door, smiling happily. Courtney looks up and gives her mom a slow look, so Barbara leaves. Courtney opens the note and reads, "*Thanks for giving me hope*". She smiles and holds it to her chest, grinning down at it as she sets it on the bed spread.

Courtney's failure to tell the JSA about her mentoring of Camerona leads to a falling out between her and the team. Sylvester correctly guesses that she tried to fix everything so she could present it to the team in a nice little bow. He doesn't know Cameron Mahkent, but he does know her. He trusts her gut more than anything. So if she says he's a good kid who just needs some guidance, he's on board.

Courtney talks to Pat about her circumstances. He's sorry that things are difficult right now, with her and Yolanda and the others not getting along. She knows it's her fault. She screwed up by keeping what was happening to Cameron to herself, and now Cindy's gone, along with any credibility she had as a leader of the JSA.

In the morning, Lily enters Cameron's room looking for him. She learns from Sofus that he's in the gardens working on his statue. She picks up a sketch and sneers that she said no more art. His duty is to his family. She angrily crumples up the sketch and throws it in a trash can, storming out. Sofus peers into the can, using his powers to open the crumpled paper, revealing a sketch of Courtney Whitmore.

The JSA convenes at their usual lunch table, where Courtney once again apologizes for not telling them about Cameron, as it was never her intention to put him before them. Beth thanks her for the apology and accepts it, eyeing Rick when he's silent. The boy briskly nods they're good. Yolanda urges her to tell them the rest, making Rick shift in his seat. Courtney admits that she wants to tell Cameron everything, and Rick questions why she would want to do that. She can't be with him if she can't be honest with him about the JSA, about his father, or about her being Stargirl. She's asking for their support, but Rick quickly says no. She can't keep doing this to them. Every time she shares their secrets, it makes all of them less safe. Especially for that kid, all because Courtney likes him. He notices Courtney looking at Yolanda for support, and questions if she knew about this. She did, and he scoffs that she's gotta be kidding. Yolanda admits she was wrong about Cindy - not completely wrong, just a little wrong. Courtney wants to tell Cameron about who his dad really was and why they had to stop him. He can't spend the rest of his life never knowing anything. Courtney looks to her team, as she knows it's going to be hard, and she knows there's real risk here, but once they get through it, she has faith they will all heal. She needs to tell him the truth. Beth looks around the table and asks if they should vote. Rick tells her not to bother, leaning back in his chair. Courtney looks at him, hurt, but he averts his eyes emotionally. He tells her to do what she wants to do - he's got her back. He's got everyone's back here, no matter what. They all should know, because they're his family. Nothing will ever change that, but don't say he didn't warn her.

Courtney walks to the Mahkent's front door, nervously knocking. A moment later, Cameron answers with a smile, greeting her happily. She asks to come in as they need to talk, and he opens the door for her to enter. Lily walks down the hall and hears Cameron talking to Courtney in the study. She stops to eavesdrop on the conversation. Courtney remarks that she never noticed the snowglobes before. His dad used to collect them. Every time he went on one of his business trips, he'd bring one back for Cameron, calling them trophies. Courtney nervously mentions he went on a lto of business trips. Cameron nods and sadly admits that sometimes when he wakes up, and his dad's not here, he thinks he's on a business trip. Then he remembers the truth.

Courtney walks a few paces away before admitting she wants to talk to him about his father, specifically, about what happened to him. Cameron reiterates that he doesn't know much. He knows his dad was trying to do something to help the world, and he was killed for it. She slowly tells him that's not exactly what happened. She asks for him to please, just let her explain everything she's about to say before he says anything. He takes a deep breath than agrees, so Courtney readies herself. His father wasn't who Cameron thinks he was. Lily bursts in angrily declaring that's enough. Sofus joins and tries to stop her. Cameron moves next to Courtney, asking what's going on. Lily and Courtney lock eyes for a moment. Suddenly, the door smashes open as Hourman slides into the room below, shattering the door into piece. Cameron takes a few steps forward in front of Courtney, who looks at Hourman in surprise. The masked hero shouts up at Courtney that he warned her. He assumes a fighting stance and Lily steps forward. She sneers that the children will finally die for what they have done, her eyes freezing over.

Hourman shouts that these creepy old ghouls are the one who have been watching them. He attacks but Cameron blasts him aside with his powers, knocking him into a table. Courtney shouts out a no as she grabs and lowers Cameron's arm. Sofus pulls Lily out of the study as Cameron, stunned, tells Courtney they have to get out of here. She protests, as that's Rick, surprising Cameron even more. Hourman readies himself for another attack. Courtney yells at him to stop but he ignores her, charging forward and lifting Cameron over his head. Courtney is caught in the crossfire and sent flying across the room, smacking into the bookshelf, just as Hourman slams Cameron to the ground.

Lily and Wildcat continue their battle in the hallway, the force of which is enough to knock several books off the shelf. All the books land on Courtney's head, disorienting her. Hourman grabs a table and flips it aside, nearly hitting Courtney, who rolls out of the way. The boys engage in hand-to-hand combat as she shouts for Rick to stop. Hourman snaps Cameron's arm which makes the boy scream. He throws Cameron forward, sliding him into Courtney, knocking them both to the ground. They look at each other as they sit up.

Hourman grabs a ladder and swings it at Cameron, who has one arm around Courtney. She shields her face as he projects an ice shield over them, leaning her against his leg. The ladder smashes against the ice and splinters into pieces, leaving the couple unharmed. This doesn't deter Hourman, who comes at them again. Cameron slides Courtney across the floor to safety, ducking under Hourman's attack. As he tries to stand, Hourman punches down at Cameron, who blocks it with a smaller ice shield around his hand.

The pair are evenly matched as Cameron dodges and blocks each punch. He uses his powers to stun Hourman, who then counters with a punch. They both fall and Hourman tries to kick Cameron, who at the same time, sends an ice blast. The impact causes them both to fly over the railing and land in the room below. Hourman is on his knees in an instant, locking eyes with Cameron, who crouches. They charge at one another, yelling angrily.

They are evenly-matched now as they exchange punches. However, Hourman lands a hard punch in Cameron's ribs, making the boy double over. He follows up by punching Cameron to the floor. As Hourman recovers from his injuries, he looks at Cameron's still body. Cameron leaps up as he recovers quickly, crouching down for another round. Hourman looks up slowly, a dark expression in his eyes. Cameron pushes his ice to the ground, using the blasts to propel himself upwards and through the air. Hourman reaches out a single hand and grabs Cameron by the chest.

Courtney, who looks on in horror at the sight, quickly leaps to her feet and jumps over the railing of the mezzanine. She yells for Rick to let him go, grabbing at his arm and tugging on him. He throws her aside without a second thought. She slams into the wall with enough force to make a cracking sound. Hourman turns back to Cameron, whose eyes dart to his girlfriend, bleeding on the floor. He clenches Hourman's arm, letting out a scream as he sends ice crawling up his arm and shoulder. Hourman drops him and Cameron quickly attacks him with ice, then freezes each of his feet to the ground. He blasts ice under Hourman, using it to slide under the hero, hit the wall, and launch himself into a flip. He braces his feet on the wall as he sends a blast of ice strong enough to knock Hourman to the ground. Lily watches with a smile.

Hourman struggles to his feet and Cameron kicks him in the torso, sending him back to the ground. Courtney watches as she struggles to regain her composure. Hourman crawls away from Cameron, who glares at the boy. Lily calls out for her grandson, catching his attention. She reveals they killed his father. He looks to Courtney who can't manage the words, though her emotional expression is the confirmation he needs. He swells with emotion as ice swirls around his body, his eyes freezing over. He blasts Hourman backwards with enough force to smash the stairs. Hourman lays there, weak, unable to breath well. Cameron holds out his hand which swirls with ice. Lily cheers from the sidelines, telling him to do it, as Hourman reaches his hand up weakly. Sofus enters and tells him to stop. This hate is what killed his father. His anger, his grief. He tells Cameron to not let them take control of him. Cameron looks to Hourman and then to Courtney. Sofus croaks out for him not to ignore love, then falls to the ground, clutching his arm. Wildcat, Artemis, and Dr. Mid-Nite enter the room. Cameron walks up to his grandma, sitting next to her. Courtney crawls over to the steps, managing to sit next to Rick.

Dr. Mid-Nite reads that Sofus is having a heart attack. She decides to call her mom, who tells her that Sofus's heart has stopped. James reminds her about the gloves, which double as defibrillators because of their power. The suit will insulate her, she just has to get everyone clear. She sends a shock through Sofus then another, successfully reviving him. The man groans as Lily holds his head, relieved that he's alive. Wildcat and Artemis share a look. Cameron holds Lily's shoulder as they look down at Sofus. He looks over at Courtney, who is crying. She looks away as Hourman croaks out that he's sorry. When the carnage rests, Beth calls 911.

### Truth and Heartache

In the morning, Mike and Jakeem are missing, leading Pat, Courtney, Barbara, and Yolanda to worry that the Mahkent's did something to Mike out of revenge for killing Jordan. Courtney nervously says that Beth tracked the receiving signal from the spy cameras to the Mahkent house. They're the ones who've been watching them, so they have to be involved. Sylvester isn't convinced, as they've been set up before. He tells her to think about it -- at the exact moment she and Cameron were trying to bury past demons, Beth suddenly cracks into info that points the rest of the team at the Mahkent house like a gun, making everything go boom. He's betting the signal Beth found was a fabrication.

The next morning, across town at the hospital, Lily and Cameron sit near Sofus's slumbering body. Lily angrily tells Cameron this is not the way of their family, waiting, and giving them time to plan their attack again. Cameron tries to reason as they don't know for sure that's what they're doing. He starts to mention what Papa said, but she cuts him off and says to look at Sofus. Cameron knows that he might've died if it wasn't for Beth Chapel calling 911. Lily scoffs as they were the ones that did this to him, just like his father. He knows the truth now, about Courtney Whitmore and her friends - who they are and what they did. She's going to take his grandfather home, instructing Cameron to go find the Whitmore girl. She trusts that he knows what must be done, and after a moment, Cameron looks to her darkly, stating that he knows.

Behind the The American Dream, a nervous Courtney meets up with Cameron. He looks over at her from the bench and stands as she approaches. She asks how his grandfather is. He replies that he's fine. Courtney is so sorry - she never meant for any of this to happen. He asks why she did it. She explains Yolanda and Rick were just trying to protect her. They though his grandparents were part of it, but he cuts her off, as his grandparents are not evil. They're just angry, and so is he. She knows he is. He has every right to be. He insists she should have told him the truth. She wanted to, but she didn't know how. He coldly says she just needs to open her mouth, and say it. She knows but she knows how much his father meant to him, and she didn't want to change that. He questions her statement, and she steps closer, admitting that Jordan did bad things. He killed people to get what he wanted and was about to kill more, so, so many more.

Cameron's learning that he wasn't a good guy all the time, but he was his dad - his. He asks if she had to kill him to stop him. If she had to take his dad away from him forever. Courtney insists they never set out to hurt him. He wants to know who did it, who killed his father. She carefully tells him that it was accident, she swears to him. If it wasn't accident, then someone needs to own up to it. He closes the gap between them and again asks who killed his did it. She tries to avoid the answer, as it doesn't matter who did it. It matters to him. He pleads with her twice for the answer, his voice shaking as he does. Courtney looks down for a moment then up at him. She lies that she did it, just as a tear falls from his eye. She apologizes and tries to stop him, but he holds out his hand. He's quiet for a moment before leaning closer. He doesn't want to ever see her again. She nods and he back away before leaving. She watches him go and then tearfully walks away too.

In the morning, Courtney talks to the team after learning the Ultra-Humanite is responsible for Gambler's murder. She thinks they need everyone to come together, including the Mahkents. They need Cameron. Mike smirks that she means that she does. She ignores his comment, insisting he's as powerful as his father was and that he could be a valuable asset to the JSA. Mike worries that if they team up and then the Mahkents, they will put him on ice when they figure out that ran their son over. Courtney assures him they won't, admitting they think she killed Jordan. Everyone questions this, but she dismisses it as not being important.

Meanwhile, Cameron's world changes when his father unexpectedly arrives on the Mahkent family porch. It took him a year to completely heal from his injuries. As they catch up, Jordan admits he knows how hard it is to keep their secret from those he holds close. After all, Cameron told Courtney and then this happened. Cameron, fighting back tears, reveals that Courtney told him that she was the one who killed Jordan. Lily proudly admits she failed. Jordan quickly corrects them, as it wasn't Courtney who did it, but her brother. This surprises Cameron who questions if it was Mike, and why she would tell him that it was her. Jordan assumes it was to protect Mike. But that's all in the past now. He's forgiven Mike and all of them, because they believe what they were doing was right.

That night, Cameron approaches the Whitmore-Dugan's front door, knocking gently. Courtney answers and steps outside onto the porch. She asks what he's doing there. He knows she's heard about his dad being back, which is a miracle. She agrees it's certainly surprising. She crosses her arms as she stands in front of him. To Cameron, it's unreal. It means that everything has changed. Nothing has changed for Courtney. Jordan's been back one day, and Artemis's parents are dead. He knows and that is awful. Jordan feels horrible about it, but it was self-defense. He thought they were attacking him. She asks why they would do that. He was wearing a mask, a suit that was helping him heal. They didn't know who he was, so they probably just jumped to conclusions. She shakes her head, interrupting him, as his father hasn't taken responsibility or accountability for any of his actions. Cameron questions where the accountability is for the Crocks or Cindy. He wonders how she can say they deserve a second chance, but his dad doesn't. She doesn't have an answer for him.

After a moment of silence, Cameron continues. Jordan wants to live in peace, as a family. He asks if that's what she wants too. Courtney distrustfully asks if he sent Cameron here. He assures her that he didn't. He steps forward, closing the distance between them. He takes her hand in his. Whatever happened before, between them, with his dad, things can be different now. They can work together like she always wanted. Jordan told him that, and even his grandmother agreed. He wants them to just start over, please. She gazes at him, still unsure about her feelings. He asks her to think about it and she half nods, shifting her stance. He leans over and kisses her. When the kiss ends, their foreheads graze until he pulls away. They share a look before he slowly leaves. She watches him go from her spot on the porch.

Courtney walks down Main Street, which is quiet. She stops at Jordan's mural when sees Jordan gazing up at it. He muses that Cameron's a talented son, his boy. He takes after his mother. He looks over and greets Courtney. She maintains her distance but walks a bit closer. Whatever he's doing, whatever he's planning, they're going to stop him. Jordan knows that she and Cameron have been seeing each other. She scoffs as of course he does, he's been spying on them. His son is all that matters to him. If she's important to him, then she's important to Jordan. He doesn't want to be enemies, he wants to be allies. He's not asking her to forget the horrible things she knows he did. He's just hoping she'll forgive so they can work together, all of them. Then she and Cameron can start again. She looks down so he thanks her for hearing him out.

After their conversation, Cameron paces in his room holding his phone. He sets it down on the end table and paces more. He picks it back up, about to check it when Jordan walks in. Cameron sits on the bed - Courtney still hasn't called or texted him back. Jordan knows that whatever's going on, she cares about him, advising him to give her some time. Cameron's doesn't think anything they say is going to change her mind. Somehow, they have to prove his intentions are good.

### Battle of Blue Valley

Cameron and his grandparents walk to the upstairs hallway of their home. Jordan asks how the vigil went, learning there's still no sign of Mr. Deisinger. He does have good news for Cameron, as Starman has agreed to let go of their past differences, which Cameron remarks is great. It is, but Jordan's afraid that Courtney and her friends aren't quite so willing yet. The boy wants to convince them, and Jordan leads him a few paces away from Sofus and Lily. He tells Cameron that something has happened to Courtney's stepfather. He's been killed by that aberration of science, the Ultra-Humanite. Sofus tells Jordan in Norwegian to stop lying to the boy, earning a look of surprise from his son and confusion from his grandson. Still in Norwegian, Lily tells Sofus to shut up, calling him an old fool. Their enemies die tonight. Jordan reminds his mother that that's only if they refuse. He wants to try to give his son what he wants. He leads Cameron to his room.

Across town, Courtney can't reach Mike on his phone, and Barbara's only getting Pat's voicemail. Beth relays that Zeek has S.T.R.I.P.E. fixed back up, but he hasn't seen Mr. Dugan since he went to the Mahkents'. Rick is ready to start there when Courtney's phone buzzes. She answers a call from Cameron, who tells her Starman is at the junkyard. He asks if she's looking for him and she questions how he knows that. He apologizes as his family is coming so he has to go. She tells him to wait, but he hangs up.

Cameron turns to face his dad. He doesn't like lying to Courtney. Jordan assures Cameron this is the best way to offer Courtney their help in this trying time - face-to-face.

The JSA walks the grounds of Zeek's Junkyard, but stop when they see Icicle, "Starman" who wields the staff, and Sofus, Lily, and Cameron waiting for them. Icicle greets Courtney, though Cameron barely meets her gaze. Icicle stands alongside his family and "Starman" tonight, here on neutral round, with only good intentions. Stargirl asks where Pat is. "Starman" is sorry, but she's gone. Pat came to see him after Jordan and he settled things. He apologized and tried to convince Pat to join forces with both of them, but he refused. He went into the woods alone, looking for the Ultra-Humanite, who killed him. This lands hard with Courtney. As she processes, Icicle tells her that if they're going to get any justice for Pat, they need to team up. She doesn't believe anything he says. "Starman" knows he was harsh earlier, but Stargirl cuts him off. They're both lying, and Sylvester has been lying since he came to Blue Valley.

Cameron chimes in for the first time, as he wouldn't lie to her. He's sorry about Pat, he's so sorry, but the only thing they can do now is work together and stop that monster before it hurts anyone else. Stargirl struggles for a moment until a whooshing sound gets everyone's attention. From the sky, S.T.R.I.P.E. appears, landing behind the JSA as his boosters burn into the ground. The motor revs and Stargirl questions if it's Pat. It is him, but that's not Sylvester, it's the Ultra-Humanite. The team turns back to their enemies. Ultra-Humanite rhetorically shouts out if Pat's kidding him, and angrily questions why Stripesy won't die. He shoves past Icicle and blasts S.T.R.I.P.E. with the staff, sending the robot tumbling away. He takes to the air after S.T.R.I.P.E. Lily steps forward as now, the wicked children will freeze. She summons ice to her palms and the JSA assumes their fighting positions.

Stargirl dodges ice blasts, landing on the roof of a car, just as the explosion from S.T.R.I.P.E. appears behind her. She stands and looks at Cameron, saying that Jordan lied to him. Jordan cuts her off telling her not to say another word. He holds out his hand and she gasps for air as her breath turns to ice. She clutches her throat and falls off the car, rolling onto the ground. Cameron shouts out for Courtney, rushing to her aide. Hourman charges forward and punches Icicle into a car. Courtney gasps for air as Icicle's hold on her fades. Hourman turns to Cameron, telling him not to be a tool. He's being played by his own dad, but he's still going to kick his ass. Cameron gets up and Hourman starts to advance when he suffers a disorientation spell from the hourglass. He tries to throw a punch anyway but misses. Cameron blasts him backward, with Icicle adding a secondary blast that propels him even further away.

Stargirl hurries to Hourman's side, checking on him. Icicle gives Courtney one last chance to pledge her loyalty right now. He holds out his hand, ice appearing. He's suddenly shot in the shoulder with an arrow. Everyone looks in shock to see Barbara a few feet away, lowering Paula's crossbow. She warns him to stay away from her daughter. Stargirl questions her mom and Icicle pulls the arrow out. Barbara and Stargirl help Hourman to his feet, taking him away. Icicle calls it such a shame. She was going to be so perfect for all of them. Courtney and Cameron would have been together. He knows that he and Barbara could have reignited what they had. Cameron's face falls from behind his father, growing darker. Barbara, dumbfounded, shouts they never had anything. He tells her goodbye and summons ice, ready to shoot it at the trio. Cameron shouts out a no as he tackles his father, sending a blast of ice across the lot.

Stargirl and Barbara help Hourman to shelter as Cameron fights his father. Barbara encourages Stargirl to take the staff back from Ultra-Humanite, who is fighting Pat. Stargirl is torn for a moment before obliging.

Cameron fights his father and knocks him back a few paces by performing a front flip and kicking him. Jordan painfully tells Cameron not to force him to do what Brainwave did to his son. He holds out one iced hand, begging Cameron, who looks at him in surprise. Their attention is pulled to the sky where Stargirl barrels toward the ground, glowing in cosmic energy. She slams down in front of Cameron, performing the shooting star. The blast sends Jordan flying away from them. The fact that he went there says everything. She charges at him with the staff, now assisting Cameron in fighting Icicle.

Stargirl fights Icicle, performing flips and blocks with the staff. She swings it at him as he goes to hit her, ultimately sending a blast of cosmic energy that seers across his face, then burns into the ground. Icicle looks up with a scream as his face sizzles from the cauterized wound. This surprises Stargirl, who stands up from her fighting position. He sends ice at her, which she blocks with the staff. However, the force knocks her backward. She flips over Cameron who grabs the staff to stabilize her. With his free hand, he sends a gust of power at Icicle, striking him in the chest. Icicle recovers quickly, reasoning that he only wanted what was best for Cameron. The boy tearfully tells his father to give up, then. Icicle pulls his hands back as his power appears. He tells Cameron to do what he has to, or he will. Cameron pauses for a moment, then pulls his power forward and slams it into the ground, screaming as he sends a shockwave toward his dad. The power collides with Icicles' to form a cloud of snow, mist, hail, and ice. Icicle's face emerges from the cloud, screaming until it dissipates. Barbara, Hourman, Dr. Mid-Nite, Wildcat, and Sofus look in surprise at what Cameron just did as the mist subsides. Stargirl asks where he went.

Cameron rushes to Sofus's side, as the man groans weakly. Stargirl walks towards Cameron, hopeful, but tells her to stay back. Her smile fades as she questions it. He's taking his grandfather to get help, and then he's leaving. Overcome with emotion, Cameron admits to betraying Courtney. He betrayed his own family. His grandmother's dead and his father, he can't bring himself to say it as he rests his hand against Sofus'. The men wince in pain together. Stargirl, sympathetic, insists she can help him through this. He meets her gaze and tearfully says goodbye, Courtney. He thrusts his hand to the ground and the Mahkents disappear in a puff of mist. Stargirl looks away as the snow drifts over her. When she looks back, they're both gone.

One night, Courtney walks down the street under the light of the full moon. She stops in front of the Mahkent house, which is dark inside. She looks up at it and becomes emotional. She doesn't notice the bright light that shines behind her, making the wind blow and her breath noticeable in the air. Snow falls around her and she notices it, looking up at the clear sky. She holds out her hand and catches the snowflakes. She puts her hand against her chest and looks up at the snow for a moment. She hears the wind blowing and turns around to see Cameron standing several feet away. He asks if she really thinks she can help him. She gives an emotional expression and crosses the road. They meet in the middle in a hug. She puts her hand on the back of his neck, resting her head on his shoulder as he holds her. She smiles softly as she looks up at the falling snow.

### Looking to the Future

Ten years from now, the Justice Society of America is famed across the country, serving as heroes to everyone. Cameron has since become a member of the JSA as Icicle, while Courtney continues to lead the team as Starwoman. Together, they fight many evils, including The Nebula Man, and reunite the Seven Soldiers of Victory.

## Camney Moments

* **The Dating Game -** Courtney and Cameron first communicated in Mr. Deisinger's math class, when she saw his floral sketches. She recognized their similarity to the flower painted on Yolanda's locker earlier in the day. She asked him about it, though he initially played coy. She introduced herself as Courtney Whitmore, which grabbed his attention. He looked back at her, as she sat behind him, and introduced himself as Cameron. She knew as she remembered his name since both of theirs started with the letter *C*. They smiled at one another until the teacher interrupted them. He reminded them they were in math class, not *The Dating Game*. The teen awkwardly smiled at one another and returned to their notebooks. In the real world, *The Dating Game* was a popular American television game show that typically featured a bachelorette questioning three bachelors and ultimately choosing one to accompany her on all-expenses paid date on the show.

## Recurring Themes and Symbols

* **Cameron's Art -** Cameron is a talented artist, often sketching and drawing things that are important to him. He draws sketches in class and Courtney recognize his art as being the one that muraled Yolanda's locker after it was defaced. While he initially denies it, he realizes it's her and smiles. He becomes enamored by her and takes up sketching her from memory, embarrassed when Paul Deisinger sees the sketches. The man smiles that it's nice to have a muse, and after Cameron freezes in front of Courtney when she greets him, Mr. Deisinger suggests Cameron let his art do the talking for him. He takes Mr. Deisinger's advice and shows Courtney the sketches, which she loves. He keeps the sketches of her even after his grandparents take his artist tools. While helping Cameron control his powers, Courtney suggests he use the ice to express himself through art, since he's having trouble holding a brush. He beautifully displays falling snow through the love he feels for those around him. They share their first kiss under the snow. She later shows him a picture of an ice inn as an example of something his powers could do one day. He offers to take her there sometime, then decides to bring it to her by sculpting it in his palm as a gift for her.
* **Mahkent Residence -** During the early stages of their relationship, Courtney and Cameron almost exclusively spent time at the Mahkent house. Their first kiss happened in the gazebo by the gardens in the backyard, when Courtney encouraged Cameron to create art using his powers. He created a beautiful flurry of snow that she called magical, a sentiment he likened to her, which led to their kiss. She later helped him with his powers in the gardens, and he created a statue of his father along with some winds. They went back inside where they encountered Courtney's mom and Pat talking to Cameron's grandparents, which was also the first time the two families had interacted since Courtney and Cameron's relationship began. Cameron held her hand in support. She came over again where they lounged in the study by the fireplace. He created the ice inn in the palm of his hand for her, and they mused over the artifact. With their relationship progressing, Courtney decided to tell Cameron the truth about her, the JSA, and Jordan. As they stood in the study, their moment was interrupted first by an enraged Lily, and then by the JSA who mistakenly believed the Mahkents were behind their recent troubles. The terrible fight showed the couples protection over one another, but also outed Courtney's connection to Jordan's death. A few days after the Battle of Blue Valley, Courtney stood outside the Mahkent residence as she longingly looked up at the empty home. A flash of blue light and falling snow appeared. When she turned around, she saw Cameron waiting for her. He asked if she could really help him and they embraced in the street outside the home.

## Notes and Trivia

* After Courtney's accident in "*Shiv Part One*", Cameron did give Courtney a corsage while she was in the hospital. However, the scene was deleted.
* Cameron is Courtney's first boyfriend in *Stargirl*.
* As of "*Chapter Five: The Thief*", Cindy Burman is the only person who voices her approval of the relationship.
	+ Cindy's approval was short-lived; feeling betrayed by the JSA, Cindy exposed the truth to the JSA that Courtney was helping Cameron control his powers. She hoped that; when Cameron found out the truth he would come for Courtney and win.
	+ Even though Sylvester tells the JSA to let Courtney hang out with Cameron, his advice pertains to the JSA staying together; instead of fighting. He doesn't express his opinion of the relationship either way. But in "*Chapter Six: The Betrayal*", he reveals to Courtney that he knows and understands her predicament as he saw his sister, Merry go through a similar situation with Brainwave.
	+ Cameron's grandfather, Sofus appears to be supportive of the relationship as it makes Cameron happy.
* Courtney lied to Cameron that she killed Jordan to protect Mike, which fuels Cameron's anger to her. When he learns she lied, and that his father is alive, he asks her to start over.

## Comic Comparisons

* In the comic series, Courtney and Cameron don't have any romantic attraction to each other, as they are enemies, with Cameron taking the moniker of Icicle after his father's death. He fought the Star Spangled Kid, S.T.R.I.P.E. and Starman. He became an ally of sorts to the JSA after he helped them defeat an Ultra-Humanite.
* Cameron's primary love interest is Artemis Crock, who he later had a daughter with, while Courtney's interests included Al Rothstein/Atom Smasher and Billy Batson/Shazam.
