Just a real short piece of Jaydick fluff

"Ugh," Dick groaned, rubbing a hand over his face. "My lips are so chapped."

"Uh... just put some chapstick on then," Jason said.

"Right," Dick said, standing up and retrieving a tube of chapstick from the bathroom.

Jason looked up when Dick didn't get up again to return the chapstick after a few minutes. His brows furrowed when he noticed Dick smearing the chapstick on his chin, stopping and rubbing his lips together before frowning and going to apply another coat.

Dick let out a frustrated sigh, rolling more chapstick out of the tube before continuing to smear it around his chin.

Jason chuckled quietly and got up from his chair, putting down the book he'd been reading and grabbing Dick's wrist. "How long has it been since you got enough sleep Dickie?" He asked gently.

Dick lowered the chapstick and furrowed his brows in thought. "I got some sleep this morning," he replied after a moment.

"And how much is some?" Jason asked.

"30 minutes," Dick mumbled around a yawn.

Jason tutted quietly, grabbing the chapstick from Dick's hand and going to the kitchen to grab a rag. He returned after a few moments and began to wipe the chapstick from Dick's chin, applying a light coat of the stuff to the man's chapped lips before returning the it to the bathroom.

"It's time for you to go to bed Dickie," Jason said.

Dick shook his head, suddenly finding it hard to keep his eyes open. "What 'bout patrol?" He slurred.

"You can't patrol like this Dickie," Jason said, pulling Dick up from his chair.

"Wha... 'bout you?" He asked, slumping heavily against Jason's chest.

Jason wrapped his arms around Dick to keep him from falling over. "I'll patrol alone tonight," he said.

"Mmmm," Dick whimpered, grabbing hold of fistfuls of Jason's shirt. "Don't leave me," he whined, snuggling closer to the younger.

A smile tugged at Jason's lips, and he ran a hand through Dick's soft curls.

Dick hummed and leaned into the touch.

Jason sighed softly. "I suppose I could use a night off as well," he said.

Dick relaxed when Jason said that, leaning slightly more heavily on him as he drifted off.

"Let's get you to bed," Jason said quietly, scooping Dick up in his arms.

Dick simply snuggled closer to Jason and let himself drift off, finally getting the rest he so desperately needed.
