When They Find Out | DamiJon

Confession on The Cold Rooftop

I hope you enjoy my first story~
...
.Robin's POV.
Lost in thought, I shudder at the frosty breeze waiting for my partner who is time and time again, constantly late. For someone with a power that allows them to fly relatively quickly, you'd think he'd be the one here at our meeting place first.
These frequent night patrols were arranged by our fathers, regardless of what we thought.

I find comfort in routines, I revel in it. And though he's (Jon) grown on me quite a lot, I can't help but find my daily life a constant loop. Something i can't get out of, like a nightmare. I wished things would change a bit.

"Sorry I'm late."

I look up at the sound of a familiar voice.

"How annoying, you could at least try to be on time. There's no use apologizing let's just start." I hissed annoyed. He looks upset and I feel a bit bad, It's not that I hate him or anything, he was my friend, but there's just so much expectation to be better than Batman that I can't afford to have a late start on anything.

"Sorry I didn't mean it like that, I just wanted to have an earlier start." I empathized as a way to make up for my previous statement. He gives me a smile. Today was a slow night, petty criminals and petty crime, nothing that exciting but yet again he always laughs after we stop a crime. It's,, cute? What an odd thought.. I can't make talk about Jon though because it's fun being able to do this with him, I turn to him and give him a smile, he returns it with a confused look but then a big grin.

.Superboy's POV.
I look at him and my heart flutters. Was it the cold weather, or that fact that I'm certainly, desperately in love with him? Yeah sure the crime fighting was cool but with him it's so much better, I can't help but laugh. But there's no way he'd like me back, look at him, then look at me. That being said, I can't just let these feelings swell my heart and not speak out on them. The reason I'm always late is because I always try making a plan to confess and lose track of time with my delusions but today will be different.

"Uhh,, Robin?" I blurted nervously. "Hmm?" He replies focused on some store below the building we're currently on. "Well we've been friends for a while and we've been patrolling together forever but recently I-" before I could tell him how as of recently I've developed feelings for him, he puts a finger over my mouth and tells me to look. Discouraged, I look at a group of armed robbers breaking into the store he was watching. Though immensely distraught, his finger on my mouth made me blush.

My strong feelings for him made we wish I never knew him so I wouldn't have to go through this pain.

...

We caught the robbers with only a few scrapes and scratches. And when we were just about done he'd told me patrol was over.

.Robin's POV.
It was obvious he had something to say earlier, a love confession. I liked him but I wasn't sure of how. I mean, I've never thought of the possibility of us being more than friends.

"Wait!" He announced.

Despite the chilly temperature my hands sweat. They became slippery with the thought of our partnership and friendship being reduced to chaos because no matter what, Robin and Superboy were partners and Robin liked being around him.

"I like you", he mummers in a hushed voice, he had practically whispered it out.

"Um,, well" I give him a confused look, I didn't know what to say. His eyes started to flood on the verge of overflowing. I didn't want to hurt his feelings but as super hero's we have a responsibility to help others. What if we have a fight with one another and something goes wrong on a mission because our partnership is a mess? I'm going to become the heir to the most prominent enterprise in Gotham and I'm required to produce an heir.. In order to become like Batman, I can't have distractions.
