(Y/n) pov

I see your monsters I see your pain
Tell me your problems I'll chase them away
I'll be your lighthouse
I'll make it okay
When I see your monsters
I'll stand there so brave
And chase them all away

Something was up with Damian. I was just staring at my coffee while waiting for my boyfriend to meet me at the coffee shop for our date since he had work today.

A cup of coffee still steaming
Staring back at me and it's blacker than the night now
I'm awake but still sleeping
I keep telling myself I'll be alright (I won't)
And I know it can't get worse than today

I sigh as I wait while watching out of the window. I had a rough week but hopefully seeing Damian will fix that.

Sitting here and she's trying to rehearse what to say
See, she's in the bathroom hoping I'm not in earshot
While she's getting used to the sound of a teardrop (Splash)
It hits the tile

I've practiced on how to ask Damian about the scars on him, bruises, or wounds he'd come to school with in my bathroom. But how do you ask something like that without upsetting someone if they don't want to talk about it?

Damian pov

I have no idea what to do since (Y/n) is noticing things.  I walk to the coffee house with a sense of dread in my heart.

And I know it's been a while since you seen me
Smile and laugh like I used to
I've been in denial since it happened

Just take me to the past
'Cuz I just can't imagine losing you (too)
I can't explain this so I'll keep it all inside
Wear my pain, but it's masked by my pride
She came to hold me and she cried
Told me this as she stared into my eyes, said

I tend to smile and laugh a bit more with her but not lately. Sometimes I wish I can go back to where she wasn't in my life. She'd be happy and much safer. Or at least as safe as one can be in Gotham. But then I hate the thought of never knowing her. Besides, how do you explain to your girlfriend that I am Robin? It's best to keep that to myself.

I see her from the window and couldn't help but smile a little. 'I just wish my actions don't get her hurt.', I think as I go inside.

~Time-skip~

I see your monsters I see your pain
Tell me your problems I'll chase them away
I'll be your lighthouse
I'll make it okay
When I see your monsters
I'll stand there so brave
And chase them all away

I was out on patrol with a sadden heart. It's been 2 weeks since that date but (Y/n) and I had a fight. I regret what I had said to her. I just sit on a ledge of a tall building staring out into Gotham City.

~Flash-back~

"I can't see why you just can't tell me!", (Y/n) yells at me.

"Because it isn't any of your business!", I snapped at her.

"So it's not any of my business to care about my boyfriend!?"

"Or maybe you are too busy being nosy!"

"Nosy?! How can you say that!?"

"Because I never asked for this!"

"Damian I-"
