~Chapter 2: Silent Treatment~

Third Person POV

It was lunch time at the mansion, and every member from the bat family, except Bruce,were sitting at the dinning room table.

Bruce was gone for the weekend in China.

Alfred was cooking breakfast, every once in a while looking at the family.

Tim was working on his computer, finishing his homework for the weekend.

Dick was trying to get Jason's attention in some way or another.

Jason was sneering at the conversation he and Roy were texting to each other on the phone.

And Damian was sitting at the table, arms crossed, frowning. He was angry, angrier then usual that is. His siblings had pissed him off and he had had enough of it for the weekend.

Alfred brought over the plates of food, and everyone, but Damian, started to dig in.

After a few minutes Dick looked up to see Damian wasn't eating his food.

"Dami is something wrong? You aren't eating your food." He asked worryingly

"'tt' I'm fine Grayson. Mind your own business." He started to push the food on my plate around a little. Dick kept sending looks of worry to Damian as he ate. After a few minutes Damian just wanted to leave. So, he excused himself and went to train.

"What's up his a-" Dick send him a glare, "-pples" Dick and Tim looked at him confused, but then began.

"He has been acting like this all morning. He won't talk and much and seems really angry." Tim replied

"Well whats got him pissed?" Jason questioned

Smiling, Dick then said, "Maybe it is just puberty?"

"That's not funny Dick" Tim deadpanned

"Says you. Me and Dickie bird over here have gone through it, but look at you. You still have a high pitched voice and everything." Jason and Dick started to snicker until Tim sighed and admitted defeat.

"I. Know. But right now, we are talking about Damian"

"Well lets just continue our day and if it does continue we will do something about it" They all agreed and went on with their day.

Throughout the rest of the day, Damian had acted the same. He didn't speak much at all unless he had to and the bat brothers were getting a little worried.

They all started to follow Damian around and asked questions

Dick: "Are you sure you're ok?"

Jason: "Go back to normal, Demon-Spawn" That had earned himself a slap on the head from Dick

Tim: "Why am I here, Dick" smack "-I mean! Are you ok Damian?" he said with a fake voice of worry

"I told you, I'm fine.Now go away." He slowly started to get faster and faster with his walking, until it became a jog, and then a run. The other brothers were still following not far behind. Damian finally stopped, having enough of his families' shenanigans.

"Leave me alone!" he yelled as the others boys stopped

"Then tell us what's wrong, God! I didn't think it was that hard."Tim said

"Shut it, Drake. I told you I was fine now drop it." Damian said this and began to walk away again.

The other three bat boys decided to drop it and try again the next day.

~THE NEXT DAY~

Dick came down stairs, ready to eat breakfast. As he walked in the dinning room he saw Damian sitting at the table, as usually. He seems better since yesterday, thought Dick. To test if he was better, Dick went up to Damian and gave him a hug, getting a squirming Damian below him.

"Get off of me Grayson!" Damian's voice was muffled under Dick's arms around him

"Alright, alright. I was just making sure you were better since yesterday." he paused and looked at Damian's frowning face. With a smile he then said, "And it seems that you are better. I did want to ask though, why did you act like that?"

Damian sneered at him, looking back at his breakfast. "Nothing you need to know. Go and eat your breakfast before it gets cold."

For the rest of the day and onward Damian was back to normal.

AN: This story was inspired from my day yesterday. It is modified for the bat family though. I was Damian and Dick was like my Mom. Sorry if it is too short!
