When You're Given a Little Robin

Chapter 34: My Kitty

The sun was setting over Gotham as a motorcycle rode down its streets. The rider was dressed in a black jumpsuit that hugged their curvy body quite tight. This was because the rider was none other than Catwoman herself Selina Kyle. Now you might be wondering what Catwoman, who had been living in  Blüdhaven for the past year, was doing in Gotham City. Well it will be interesting for you to know that this was not her first time back in the city, in fact it was one of many visits she had had in the last few months.

For months Selina and Bruce had been having little "meetings" at Wayne Manor. Initially it was to discuss the group doing metahuman experiments and any information Selina had on them. Though that topic only lasted about two weeks before the information was sufficient enough for Bruce to finally bust them with help from the League.

Now the meetings were a bit more of the "intimate" kind, a...date you could say, the kind of date that usually ended up with them in bed together by the end. The two had found during their previously strictly business meetings that their connection had only grown stronger even after all their time apart. So they agreed upon their little rendezvous continuing to the point where both looked forward to them like a sugar addict to cake. However it was no longer just Bruce that made Selina want to continue these dates, it was also sweet little Dickie. For during those weeks Selina had not only gotten close with Bruce but with his precious son too.

She had been charmed by the boy the first time she'd met him at her apartment in Blüdhaven. His sweet innocent smile and nature were irresistible then and now after spending more time with him they were her kryptonite. Back when their meetings were strictly business the little boy would join in and sit on her lap and snuggle with her. Often before or after the meetings she would play with him while Bruce was preparing for their meeting or finishing up work. It was even traditional for her to tuck Dick into bed and read him a bedtime story when she came over.

The boy wonder had grown quite attached to her even calling her Kitty as a nickname since he was Kitten to her. It made Selina's heart burst at just the thought of it and how much she adored the son of the bat. This attachment and love grew with each visit though none quite as much as when she visited for Dick's birthday.

Two Months ago

The sun was starting to set as Selina finally pulled up to Wayne Manor. However before she entered through the gates she made sure to carefully check for cars as she knew Dick had a birthday party with the Justice League. And while she may be a reforming thief, she did not need to run into them. Once sure the coast was clear Selina rode through the gates and parked close to the front door. The mostly reformed cat burglar then took off her helmet to reveal thick raven shoulder length hair. She then walked over to the little storage bin on the back of her bike and carefully pulled out her present.

It was a sturdy yellow cardboard box with 4 quarter sized holes on each side and a thick red ribbon wrapped around it till it became a pretty bow on top of the lid. Selina looked at it with a smile knowing Dick would absolutely love it. So carrying it gingerly, Selina then walked up to the door and gave it a solid knock. Within seconds the door opened to reveal Alfred who immediately smiled at her presence.

"Miss Kyle, it is wonderful to see you, we were wondering when you would arrive! Master Dick has been asking for you since his birthday party ended."

"It's wonderful to see you as well Alfred, and sorry for keeping you waiting. I had to be sure the League wouldn't see me."

"I understand, now come in, the masters are waiting for you in the living room." Alfred said with a small coy smile.

Quickly walking in the car burglar made her way to the huge living room. Once there she couldn't help but smile as she saw Dick playing with his toys alongside his daddy. It was such a comforting sight for her as she knew it meant Bruce was happy. She had always thought the man worked too much and wondered if he cared for anything else. But here was proof the Bat had a heart, for as long as he had Dick the man was tethered to a small portion of normalcy and joy. As she observed the two it wasn't long before she was spotted. Ace saw her and immediately barked happily, taking a liking to Selina even with the scent of cats on her. The dog immediately ran to her making the woman smile as she affectionately rubbed his ears.
