AN: Im kind changing it up a little. As we get farther into the book I'm going to start doing point of view changes as Percy is going to move to Alaska. It's my way of keeping the characters in the book. Also, it would get kinda boring.

How could she do this to herself.

She was moving to Alaska within two weeks. She can't do that to him too. She pulled away, she rushed to the top as if she needed air, which she didn't but she needed to at least act human.

"Dude are you ok? He full on tackled you" Wally said. "Yeah, I'm fine" she was not fine. Well mentally anyway.

Artemis, Percy and Megan began to dry off. Soon everyone was on the beach, no word from Grayson to Percy. It was getting late, and Percy and Dick would have to start heading back to New York.

They exchanged phone numbers as they knew they would be seeing more of her.

As they got back to her bike, he still said nothing.
"Are you ok?" She asked. "Yeah" he said, but there was something in his voice that made her think otherwise.

It took about two hours. It was an extremely awkward ride. She dropped dick off at his hotel and drove back to her apartment. She parked it and walked into the apartment building.

"Hey Jackie" she froze. It wasn't a voice she had heard before. She turned to see a man in an all-red suit. "Do I know you?" "You should? But then again, I'm mainly in central city" "yeah?" "Still don't know who I am do you?" "Nope" she popped the p. "Alright, the flash" "k, well I'm going home. Don't know what you want from me" she started to walk to the stairs. Only for him to appear right in front of her.

"It seems that you have drawn the attention for two other super heroes. Wonder Woman and nightwing. Care to explain why?"

Maybe because Diana is my cousin you dim witted ketchup bottle. She thought with frustration.

"I would have no idea," she had the urge to call him something in Greek under her breath. But she didn't.
"Now move" she said "your wasting your time"

"Alright, how do you know dick Grayson?" "I met him at a paint store" "really?" He asked genuinely asking. "Yeah, can I go? I want to go to sleep" "yeah, I guess so" 'weird'

She turned the shower on, she thought about putting music on but then thought otherwise. She stepped into the shower, and felt the water run down her back. It felt better, refreshed even. It's been a while since she had a feeling of peace.

But she felt something heavy in her chest. It snuck up on her fast. having adhd, "out of site, out of mind" is a real thing. But when a small thing reminds her of a memory. Say the spa stuff Piper gave her for her 16th birthday.

She fell to her knees. As she felt a sob rattle through her. It was drowned out in the sound of the shower. No one new that there was something wrong with her. She felt free to cry, not to be judged or the worry of being found out.



Damien felt weird about this. Batman had suspicious about Dicks new friend. Though she had won Jason over and almost Damien himself, but no. The asshole of bat wanted to bug the place. And that's what they did when everyone was out of the house.

Jason was not happy. He liked this girlfriend. She would fit in well with the family. Though dickie bird said she was not a girlfriend... he could see it in his eyes that he wanted something.

The way she had protected her family when the robber attempted to rob them. She had demonstrated that she was well calculated and not as dumb as she looked. The actions were graceful but not. 'Perfect description techniques' he thought to him self.

He walked in to the bat cave to here what seemed to be an audio recording of water falling and there were a few questionable noises.

"What are you listening to, dami-baby?"
"I'm not a baby" he growled. Jason does not let him forget that he is the youngest, and takes every opportunity he has to remind him of that.
"Sure, we'll go with that"
" father has decided that Graysons friend, Percy is not worth his trust yet" "that's Percy?"
"Yes, it appears she is having a mental breakdown In the shower" "he bugged her place?" He asked in astonishment. "Yes. Why are you surprise" his gravelly voice cracking at the end of his sentence.

Jason wanted to say something about his voice crack but ignored it. "That's not a mental breakdown" he sighed. "That's grieving" Damien was silent for a while. He eventually turned it off when the water ceased. "Tell Grayson of this dilemma, I must go to New York" "noh ah Birdy britches, not with out me"
