*Jamal's pov*

"JAMAL! We gotta go man." I know what they're saying, but I can't stop looking at the scene in front of me.  Tina moved on....with that asshole Dick Grayson. She moved on with this guy?!

My heart shatters within my chest as I watch her smile at him with much more joy in her eyes. Their hands are   joined together as he places a soft kiss on her lips. He whispers something in her ear that causes her to laugh loudly before walking down the street. Did she cheat on me with him? Is that why their relationship is mocking me from a distance?

"HEY MOVE YOUR ASS!" Aaron takes me by my collar and practically drags me to the car. I shrug him off of my shoulder so I can get into the car.

"Get your head in the fucking game, Jamal. We're about to hit the biggest score we've ever done. WE'LL BE RICH!" Cecil says excitedly.

"How are we going to do that when its just us, Ce'?" I tell him angrily. I'm about tired of his bullshit. He always want to do big shit, but doesn't think things all the way through.

"First of all, watch your fucking tone, second I made a deal with Penguin," my eyes widen in shock.

"WHAT!" Me and Aaron shout. He made a deal with Penguin?! Of all people!

"I told him that I'll give him fifty percent of our cut if he hands us the necessary reinforcements," he grins. Either he's really stupid or really really stupid.

"So we're getting more guys?" Aaron asks.

"Hell yeah and guns. Plus if we catch Nightwing and Batman there, he'll pay us three times the money we're going to get from robbing the Wayne's," he smiles. He starts the car while Aaron keeps hyping him up. I'm so done with these idiots. I want to leave. I need to leave.

"What do you think, Jamal?" I ignore their question at first, but I catch a glimpse of Dick and Tina making out in the middle of the sidewalk. If it wasn't for her being friends with the Waynes, I'd still have a chance of getting back with Tina.

"Lets do it."

*meanwhile Dick's pov*

''Dayummm, he might as well climb inside of her," Tina scoffs as we watch, outside of my car, this guy practically devour his girlfriend in the middle of the sidewalk. "Do you think they can feel our stares?"

"They're too busy feeling each other," I snort as his girl moves her hand under this guy's shirt. Damn which was worse high-school or this?

"Gothamites are a different breed. Should we offer them a motel room or something?" She asks thoughtfully.

"I don't know, but I do know he's gonna be inside that by tonight," God I want to look away, but I can't. You ever see something that you really, really, really, should look away from, but you can't stop watching? They are really going at it too. The guy's hands are all on her ass while she's nearly ripping his shirt apart.

"Is it sad to say that I can't look away even though I really want to?" She whispers as the couple drag themselves to a nearby alley. I go to say something else, but a car speeds past us. Where do they have to go?

"Welp, that's enough excitement for one day," I say as I get the car started.

"Do you think we'll be like that?" She asks as she leans against her seat. A pause fills the car, before we both say, "Naaaa." I reverse out of my parking spot, and drive off down the road.

"So quick question." An unexpected
knot forms in my chest at the thought of her question.
That's....never good.

"Shoot," I take a quick glimpse at her, and notice a small smile creeping on her face. Okay so maybe its not that bad.

"As a concerned family friend of the Wealthy Wayne's, what happened while I was away?" Did she just ask what happened? I hope she doesn't have anywhere else to go.

"Tinaaaa, let me tell you the drama that went down." She perks up in her seat, and looks at me.

"Spill the tea," she says happily. I quickly pull into an parking spot near a vacant park. I miss coming to this park. It's the only one where crackheads aren't around.

"Let's sit on that bench over there" I ask as I take my keys out. "Bet," she gets out of the car, and I follow behind her. She sits down first and pats the seat next to her.

"So what happened while I was gone?" She asks again as I shift towards her.

"Okay, so Bruce was going to call his lawyer or somebody, to get the bail money right? Girl, the day you left was the day his account got locked. We wanted to call your parents, but you know they were out of town," I tell her. Her eyes widen in shock.

"Dick, shut up," she gasps."Are you for real?!'' She has no idea what kinda of luck we have. Shit always happens at the wrong time.

"Babe, it's true! His account was locked for four days. It wasn't even Selina this time," I start to feel a headache just thinking about the past week.

"Dayum, wait Selina had his account locked before?" She gives me nonbelieving look as she slides closer to me.

"Ohhh yeah, when they first started out. Though, I don't think that account was real. I think Bruce had Tim set it up for her as a test or something. When Selina found out all we heard was arguments and sex." We erupt in laughter at the very true memory. "Is it bad that I can see that happening?" She giggles.

"No way. Somehow they make it work. She's gotten wayyyy better over the years, and Bruce...I don't know. Since, Munchkin was born, he's been really different. I can't put my finger on it." Bruce has always been predictable, but always full of surprises.

"Oh well, I don't know how they do it, speaking of relationships, what happened between Lois and Clark?" She asks slyly. "What about them?" I ask in confusion.

"You thought I forgot? Remember, when we were at Tim's coming home party from college? My friends kept hinting at...." she trails off hoping I'll get the hint.

"Ohhhhh. Oh they got involved with some time travel. Don't ask how, just know that they're okay now," she gives me the "are you serious" look, but I wave her off.

"That answered...nothing," she deadpans.

"Yeahhhh, sorry. I promised I wouldn't say anything." I shrug. Tina dramatically throws her hands up, and looks across the green field.

"Look at that. The sun is setting," she says dreamily. I watch the orange rays beam across her face as her plump lips pull themselves into a soft smile.

"You're missing the sunset," she chuckles as she turns those pretty brown eyes towards me.

"Why see that when I can see you?" I ask truthfully. Her eyes roll at my cheesy line, and slides into my arms. Her hand lays on my chest as her head leans on my shoulder. "Damn you're cheesy," she sighs contently.

"Well you're gonna have to deal with it, T." I chuckle softly as I place as soft kiss on her forehead. I look at the sun setting, and realize how calm I feel. I don't feel a certain weight on my shoulders when I'm around Tina. I feel good. I feel free. "I missed you. I think I've grown gray hair, and permanent bags under my eyes stressing over you. I couldn't stand to see you in jail, T."

"Well I'm back, and I'm ready to win a damn trip to Paris, France. Cecil and Jamal can kiss my ass," she retorts. She turns to me with a small smirk on her face. "And as for you, I'm not going jail again. So that being said let me make you feel better," she whispers before leaning up, and kissing me.
