(Brief Recap)
In front of me were the two people I thought I would never see in my neighborhood. The two people I wasn't sure who knew were suburbia was let alone how to get here.
Bruce Wayne and Dick Grayson.
(End Recap)
(General POV)
Both Darren and Wally were stunned due to who was in front of them.
Wally was stunned because he never expected to see two of the richest super heroes in the world here.
Darren was stunned because he didn't expect his mother to be dating the Bruce Wayne, owner of Wayne Enterprises.
"Um, mom," Darren called out cautiously.
Hearing, her name, Darren's mother came out of the kitchen and into the living room.
"Yes what is it," Darren's mom asked.
"Uh," Darren did nothing but gesture to the two people in front of him.
"Oh yes," Darren's mother giggled. Moving over to her son, she pushed him a little further to their guests.
"Son, meet the man I've been dating Bruce Wayne and his son Dick," Darren's mom said introducing everyone.
Dick smiled politely at the Hill's and stepped closer to them.
"Hello , Darren, it's very nice to meet you," Dick said politely bowing his head slightly, "you have a beautiful home."
"Thank you so much," Darren's mother smiled at him, "such a well-mannered young man you are."
Wally snorted glared at the thirteen year old.
Dick gave Wally a small smirk before his face turned innocent again.
"I owe it all to my father," Dick replied sweetly.
Miss. Hill practically cooed at him. Just then, she looked over at Wally, she had just realized she forgot him in the introductions.
"Oh, and this is Darren's friend Wally West," Darren's mother gestured to the red headed boy, "he lives in the neighborhood."
"Pleasure to meet you," Wally said politely hoping that Bruce didn't know that Wally knew his and Dick's secret identities.
That could be disastrous in many ways.
Luckily, Bruce didn't seem too suspicious or wary of Wally and simply gave him a nod in greeting.
Noticing her own son's state of nervousness, Darren's mother gently poked him in the arm to get his attention.
"Don't be shy son," Darren's mother told him.
"Oh, um, it's very nice to meet you both," Darren replied quickly making it known how tense he was.
Wally smiled at him in amusement.
Bruce chuckled deeply before moving over and putting a strong comforting hand on Darren's shoulder.
"You don't need to be nervous around me son," Bruce smiled at him kindly, "I won't do anything to hurt you."
Wally went into a cough fit.
Everyone looked over at him in question.
"Sorry, something in my throat," Wally smiled and rubbed the back of his head.
"Yeah, I'll bet," Dick mumbled lowly.
"I'm sorry to say that dinner isn't quite ready yet," Darren's mother said apologetically, "could you fellows wait a couple minutes."
Everyone nodded in agreement.
"Good," Darren's mother smiled in relief, "because I still have to set the table."
"I'll help you with that Trina," Bruce offered kissing her on the cheek.
Both of the sons made a point to look away.
Darren jumped at he felt eyes on him.
"How about Darren show everyone around the house while we set up the table for dinner," Bruce suggested.
"That's sounds nice," Trina looked toward her son.
Darren nodded obediently.
"I want to see your room first," Dick said excitedly bouncing on his feet.
Wally rolled his eyes at his friends over the top acting.
"Sure," Darren smiled slightly before guiding everyone up the stairs.
"Oh wow," Dick smiled looking around the hallway in awe, "this house is absolutely super special awesome (1)!"
"Please knock it off Dick," Wally rolled his eyes in annoyance, "you couldn't pull off cute and innocent to save your life."
In an instant, Dick lips changed from a smile to a smirk.
"You would know all about being innocent wouldn't you Wally," Dick teased, "maybe Darren can fix that for you?"
"Dick," Wally cried out referring to his name and the word.
Darren stopped in his tracks. Slowly he turned around and looked at both of them wide eyed.
"Robin," Darren asked in shock.
Both Wally and Dick froze in the middle of the hall.
"No way," Wally looked at his friend in awe, "how did you find out that Dick was actually Robin?"
Robin smacked his head with his hand with Darren just chuckled.
"If he wasn't sure before he is now genius," Dick snapped at his older friend.
Realizing what he said, Wally blushed and gave his young friend an apologetic look.
"It was just the tone of your voice and the innuendo's you were making," Darren said answering Dick's question.
"I guess the cats out of the bag," Dick sighed, "Batman is going to kill me."
"Oh," Darren started to panic at the prospect of his teammate getting in trouble.
"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to cause any problems," Darren protested hastily, "and Batman, is he actually…"
"Bruce? Yes," Dick finished with a grin, "and don't worry about him, he won't know you know unless you tell him."
Dick stared at Darren with a menacing smirk on his face.
"You're not going to tell him are you," Dick asked darkly.
"O-Of c-course not," Darren stammered not wanting to think about all the things that Batman could do to him.
"Knock it off," Wally voiced sternly smacking Dick across the head as noticed Darren stressing out in front of him.
"Fine ruin my fun," Dick folded his arms and looked toward Darren again, "so how about that tour?"
Darren nodded and walked them to his room.
"I have to warn you, it's a little messy in here," Darren cautioned with his hand on the door knob.
Wally rolled his eyes. "You're telling me about messy? Dude, my room looks like a hurricane went through it."
"Then maybe you should actually walk out of your room instead of speeding out of it," Dick advised dryly.
"Yeah, but where's the fun in that," Wally grinned.
Shaking his head in amusement, Darren opened the door to his room and welcomed them both in.
Indeed, Darren's room was messy but just not in a regular sense. The room wasn't dirty, but just filled with a countless amount paintings and drawings. They were all over the floors and the walls, hung up by scotch tape. Every single one of the drawings was incomplete.
"Geez Darren, artistic much," Dick teased.
Darren blushed and looked around at his paintings.
"Whenever I get an idea in my head I have to draw it. Sometimes I can briefly lose my inspiration for that drawing so I hang it on the wall. It helps me to remind myself to finish my work."
"Where are your finished drawings," Wally asked inspecting some of the drawings on the wall.
"They are on the other side," Darren pointed to the other side of the sliding door where his complete drawings were hanging up on the walls.
"There nice," Dick nodded walking to the other side of the room and analyzing Darren's complete work.
"There not exactly museum material, but there pretty good considering your age," Dick told him bluntly. Having been to several museums around the world, Dick would know about what good art is and what isn't.
"Dick," Wally hissed angrily afraid that he might have upset his friend.
"It's fine Wally," Darren shrugged not looking insulted in the least, "I know my work isn't that good yet. That's why I'm constantly practicing so I can be a great artist."
"I think these paintings are amazing," Wally grumbled.
Looking over at the window, Wally saw a letter lodged in it.
"What's this letter," Wally asked pointing to hit.
Tensing, Darren slowly turned around hoping not to one of those letters.
Unfortunately, luck was not on his side.
With a gasp, Darren walked over and snatched the letter from the window. On Darren's face was a look of panic and worry.
"What is it," Wally asked looking from the note to his friend.
"Is it from Tobi," Dick asked walking over to them.
Wally's eyes widened as he looked at Darren pointedly.
"Yeah it is," Darren nodded solemnly, "it's the same envelope he usually sends them in."
"Open," Wally urged, "let's see whatt his asshole has to say."
Reluctantly, Darren opened up the letter and read its content aloud.
Dearest Darren,
Do not think I have given up on you
It is our destiny to be together and utilize the Ring of Silence
I have recently acquired a group that will aid me in my quest for your heart
I will not stop until I have you in my possession
With Love, Tobi
P.S Please stop associating yourself with that worthless fool Kid Flash
he is not worth your time.
Needless to say that by the end of the letter Wally was fuming. His fist were clenching so tightly you could almost see blood coming out.
Wally snarled and reached for the letter intent on ripping it to pieces.
"Why that son of a…."
"Don't touch it," Dick ordered.
"Why not," Wally raged.
"I need to analyze it," Dick told him.
Taking out a glove from his pocket, Dick slipped it on his hand and carefully took the letter from Darren and put it in the pocket in his jacket.
"I'm going to take it to the Bat Cave to search for DNA and fingerprints," Dick told his teammates putting away his glove.
Wally nodded calmly down at bit. This way he could to tear apart Tobi and not just one of his stupid letters.
"But wait a minute, I have to show my dad the letter to," Darren insisted, "he said he'll take my ring away if I hide anything else from him."
Dick nodded. "I'll make a copy of it so you can send it to your dad. I should have it done by tomorrow."
Darren smiled in nodded in gratification.
"Boy's," they head Darren's mom called out, "Dinner's ready."
"Food," Wally cried out running down stairs while Darren and Dick watched him go in amusement.
"You think he'll turn off the super speed when he gets to the table," Darren asked.
"Probably not," Dick smirked.
Both boys shared a laugh.
…
"So, how did you two meet," Wally pointed at the two eldest people at the table with his fork all the while chomping down on his food.
Darren's mom looked at him in shock before smiling happily.
"I'm a lawyer, and one day I got a call from my Wayne Enterprise's. They were being sued for copyright infringement."
"A Health Food Company was under the impression that Wayne Enterprise's had their logo on our new billboards," Bruce added.
Bruce looked to Darren's mother.
"I heard of Trina's many successes in the court room, she's quite known for defending her clients flawlessly, so of course I called her up."
"The case went off without a hitch and Bruce asked me out afterward," Darren's mom confessed looking at Bruce fondly.
"I guess standing in front of an old man with a robe and gavel on just gets you two off huh," Wally snorted into his food.
He was met with two elbows into his sides from his friends.
"Well not exactly," Darren's mom giggled, "it's a little more complicated than that."
Seeing his mom turn to have a conversation with Bruce, Darren felt it was an opportune time to talk to Dick.
"Dick," Darren said lowly as to not raise suspicion.
"What," Dick replied speaking equally as low.
Wally wasn't paying them any mind as he wolfed down his food.
"Are you okay with my mom and your dad dating," Darren asked.
"What do you mean," Dick raised an eyebrow at him.
"Well," Darren wasn't quite sure how to word this, "are you hurt or upset that the two of them are dating."
"It's just…"
"What are you boys talk about?"
It was Bruce's voice that snapped them out of their conversation.
"Oh nothing much," Dick brushed off the question as the while giving Darren a 'we'll talk about this later look.'
"So Darren," Bruce called out.
Cautiously, Darren looked over to him.
"Yes," Darren said quietly.
"Trina tells me you're quite the artist," Bruce smiled politely.
"Uh, I'm just…"
"Yeah, he's great," Wally proclaimed talking over his friend, "you should see his room. It's filled with hundreds of drawings that are awesome!"
"Really?"
Darren blushed at he felt everyone's eyes on him.
"Hm," Wally nodded, "there's this one drawing that's of space that have all the colors of the rainbow covered in it, but there's one part of is gray. It's so mysterious."
"Wally," Darren mumbled shuffling uncomfortably.
"What," Wally blinked at him clueless, "you should be proud of your drawings! I know I am."
Darren rubbed his head with his hand.
…
The rest of the dinner went off without a hitch. Despite Darren's, embarrassment he had a good time tonight.
Right now Darren is in his room getting ready to go to sleep. He has to get up early for school tomorrow.
Suddenly, he heard his cellphone go off. He didn't recognize the number but decided to answer anyway.
"Hello," Darren said.
"Hey Darren it's Dick," Dick answered.
"Dick," Darren replied in shock, "how did you get my cell phone number?"
"Don't worry about that," you practically feel him smirking through the phone, "now what were you talking about during dinner?"
"Huh? Oh, I was just wondering if you were okay with them dating because I know I use to feel a little jealous every time my mom went out on dates."
"Hm," Dick took a minute to answer, "I don't get jealous when Bruce goes on dates, mostly because I'm use to him dating a lot."
"Oh," Darren's eyebrows rose.
"I'm actually happy he's going out with your mom actually," Dick sounded blissful, "ever since he started dating your mom, Bruce hasn't been so uptight lately. He even started smiling more, it's nice to see."
"Although," Dick added lowly.
"What," Darren asked fearing the worst.
"I do find it a little strange how he went after your mom," Dick told him, "Bruce usually goes for the ditzy unattached types, him going out with your mom is a little random."
"But don't worry," Dick said hearing Darren's breathing increase somewhat, "he would never be as cruel as to intentionally mess with a single mother. Despite what some people may think he does have standards."
A brief silence past through the two of them.
"Do you think they will last," Darren asked quietly. He really didn't want to see his mom broken hearten again. He hates it when she's upset.
"Who knows," Dick told him, "we'll just have to wait see. Hopefully they will last, they look pretty good together."
"Yeah they do," Darren chuckled.
"Alright, goodnight little brother," Dick said with a yawn, "I got to get to school in the morning."
"Okay, good…wait minute," Darren protested, "what do you mean 'little brother'? I'm two years older than you."
"In age only," Dick snickered, "night little brother."
Before Darren got a chance to say anything Dick hung up on him.
With a sigh Darren flopped down on his bed and turned off his phone.
"That Dick Grayson is something else," Darren yawned.
In no time he was able to drift into a peaceful sleep.
