Various X Reader [Multi-Fandom Book]

Dick Grayson X !Gender Neutral !Nurse Reader - Lovers In the Night

Heavy footsteps carried you up the few concrete steps that you had leading towards your front door, and honestly, you were ready for the sweet softness of the bed that awaited you upstairs.

You just got off a twenty hour shift from Gotham hospital and you were beyond exhausted at this point. The way you dragged your feet and swayed a bit from side to side only showing just how drained you were of energy.

Throwing open your door, the scent of potpourri hitting your nose made you smile for a brief moment as you stepped inside, shutting and locking the door back up. Too tired to take the time to do your nightly routine right, you started shedding layers upon layers of clothing off as you made your way up the stairs.

You made a mental note to pick up the discarded articles once you had some proper sleep. With sleep close ahead, your mind went to another important matter - your boyfriend.

You wondered when he'd be coming back home from his patrol of the city, the bed never felt the same without him next to you; holding you close in his arms, his fingers lightly tracing your back. It all made you feel absolutely safe an sound and not to mention peaceful.

The smile that was plastered on your face was suddenly wiped clean as you walked into your shared bedroom, your boyfriend Dick inside, but not the state you were expecting him in.

He was on the floor, blood droplets and small trails surrounding him as he laid in the middle of the floor. You weren't sure what he ran into, but it did a number on him - his suit torn and ripped in various places and his face and body, littered with bruises and cuts.

You were automatically awake now, dropping to your knees, cradling his head gently in your arms. Feeling the pulse on his neck, he was still with you, but you needed to fix him stat.

"Dick, I need you to say something!" Your voice rose a bit, not sure if he had a concussion or something worse. A small smile invaded his battered face, his swollen eyes staring straight into your own, "H-hi honey, I-I'm home." He joked at you. Small tears formed in your eyes, shaking your head at him.

"Shut it Grayson, you can crack as many jokes as you want once we patch you up, alright raggedy Andy?" Dick smiled at your smart comeback, giving a short laugh.

Helping the hero up, you managed to place him on the bed and ran to get your medical kit to tend to his wounds. Flipping through everything, you searched for what you needed, your mind reeling at this situation.

This wasn't the first time Dick's shown up beaten and blooded in your guys' home like this, oh no, this is practically a common occurrence, one that you despised with your very being.

You worried about him of course, the others had powers to aide them in fights, but Dick didn't and it scared you each time he'd run off to a mission. You'd always have the frightening thought that it would be the last time you'd be able to see his face, that he'd never come back to you.

With everything in hand, your rushed back to your bedroom, wanting to patch him up quickly since you weren't sure how long he'd been there.

Running in, the ripped and bloody spandex suit was crumpled to the floor. That was a good sign that Dick was doing somewhat alright, but you couldn't be positive until you gave him a full check-up. Opening your kit, you heaved a sigh and started your work.

*Time Skip*

The sun was rising, the little streaks of sunlight peeking through the curtain, a small reminder of a new day.

You glanced at the small streaks that ran into the room as a large hand stroked your hair gently, the warmth of his body radiating off of him and surrounding you was a wonderful feeling right now.

You finished up patching your boy wonder up a few hours ago and with sleep not coming to either of you, you opted to just hold each other, almost as a reminder that you both were still there, that Dick was alright now and by the iron like grip he had on your waist, that he wasn't going anywhere, anytime soon.

"Thank you (y/n)." His husky voice filled your ear, you buried your face into his neck, placing a soft kiss onto it. "Of course, like I'd leave you to bleed out on the rug, do you know how expensive that was?" Moving up, you gave him a sly grin and kissed his cheek.

Rolling over and on top of you, he started littering kisses down the curve of your neck, nipping and licking certain spots to egg you on.

"I'm not sure, but, maybe I can pay you back in another way." Hands skimmed down your sides, gripping your waist as he captured your lips in a heated kiss. He pulled back, fingers rubbing circular patterns into your soft skin.

Throwing your arms around his neck, you pulled him back closer to you. "I guess I can make an exception for you Mr. Grayson." Dick only grinned down at you, "I love you (y/n)." Breaking the small game you two had going, he said this seriously and full of adoration, a blush spreading across your cheeks.

You knew he loved you and vice versa, but every time he says it, you still get those little butterflies in your stomach. Placing a chaste kiss on his lips, you whispered back, "I love you too Dick, so much."

After your declarations of love, no more words were needed as the both of you decided that in that moment, your guys' actions would speak louder than any words would.

Well, loud enough to wake the neighbors that is.
