"Let's see... which movie..." I searched through my treasure trove of movies on Netflix. "Might as well." I clicked on Home Alone and let it load as I got my popcorn and drinks, and got my blankets and pillows ready.

~timeskip~

I laughed as Harry stepped on some ornaments. I laughed eating my popcorn. "You look like you're having fun." I turned to look at my brother, Wally.

"You're back!" I smiled and jumped up hugging him.

"I know being a hero means you come back at the most random times, but you're never home this early." I said and pointed to the clock that said 8:00pm.

"Well, nothing really interesting today." He shrugged and messed up my hair.

"Yeah yeah." I rolled my eyes and sat down to continue watching my movie.

"Also, Dick's coming over tomorrow." Wally said eating some popcorn.

"What?!?" I stood up looking at Wally.

"What?" Wally looked at me confused.

"You're telling me, that your best friend, Richard Grayson-Wayne, son of Bruce Wayne, who is also Robin," I said that last part quietly, "is coming here?!" I asked and Wally nodded.

"Oh right, you 2 haven't actually met before." Wally said and I just plopped onto the seat.

The next morning, I was in my room, combing my hair. I wanted to put some effort into how I looked today.

"Squirt! Come down!" Wally yelled for me with that stupid nickname.

"Stop calling me that!" I was only one year younger than him and he was only 1 foot taller than I was.

I hurried downstairs and ungracefully, tripped over my own feet and was about to fall on my face, when 2 arms caught me. I quickly realized it was Dick and quickly stood up on my own and looked away awkwardly. "S-sorry.." I said.

"No problem." He said and I saw a hand stretched out towards me. "I'm Richard, but everyone calls me Dick." He smiled at me.

"H-hello, Dick." I smiled and shook his hand.

That day was the start of our friendship. About 3 years went by, before I had the courage to ask Dick out, and he said yes! Then 2 more years went by, and I was at my own apartment, and finishing up college homework. I then heard a knock on my door. "It's open!" I yelled.

"(Y/n)?" I recognized it as Dick's voice.

"In here." I said as I finished my equation. Before Dick could say anything, I showed him my Math work, "does this look right to you? I mean, I know you're not as good as Tim when it comes to school stuff, but you're a lot better than Wally and Artemis." I said and pulled his arm over to my bed and showed him my work. He was surprisingly silent the entire time. I finished talking and was waiting for his answer. Then I noticed, he was in civilian clothes, and he had his shades on. He never word his shades around me, because there was never a need to, unless he was hiding an injury. I put my books aside. "Dick?" I reached for his shades and slid them off his face and placed it on my table. I reached forward towards his face, and lifted his chin up. "Oh Dick.." His eyes were all puffy and red and he had fresh tears gathered at the corners of his usually bright cobalt eyes. I brought him in for a hug and he wrapped his arms around my waist lazily, "What happened?" I asked.

"Wally, he's... he's dead.." He said softly.

I was surprised at first then nodded. "I see.." I said and ran my fingers through Dick's hair.

"I'm sorry." Dick hugged me tighter.

I pulled away slightly and went down so i was eye level with him. "You don't have to be sorry." I whispered and kissed his forehead.

"You're not upset?" He asked and I smiled wiping off a few tears.

"I'm sure that Wally went out in a way that I should be proud of." I said softly and smiled at Dick.

"You aren't as upset as I thought you'd be." Dick said to me.

"Honestly, when I found out you guys were fighting crime in skin tight costumes at night, then I was always worried sick whether or not you guys would be here with me in the morning. As time passed, I realized I should prepare myself for when one of you actually end up leaving. Never thought it would be so soon." I whispered.

"Sorry for bothering you during midterms." Dick said smiling a bit.

"Don't worry. Stay here for tonight." I said and kissed his cheek. "It's late." I said and caressed his cheek.

"Thank you." He smiled at me and I smiled in return.

"Don't sweat it" I said and sat on my bed.

He lay down and wrapped his arms around me pulling me closer. That night, we lay together in each others arms.
