Jason knew he wasn't safe, he knew Dick's words help truth and that he needed to as far away as he could. He should have escaped as soon as night came but he didn't. A night in a warm and soft bed while being fed until his stomach was full and a real, hot shower was heavenly. He was going to enjoy the single night of such spoils before making his escape. 

But he wasn't foolish even if he was young, he's done a lot to keep himself alive. 

That's why he purposely kept the door open by a crack, he wanted to hear the coming and going of footsteps and give a show of fake trust. He was carefully, he knew an open door would be overly inviting and a closed door would show him as spooked. But open by a mere crack showed he was borderline trusting but was also playing it careful. 

He also took naps instead of falling asleep for good. That's how he noticed when Dick seemed to have slither out of a room, the mister's room, wearing nothing but a bath gown and holding his earlier spandex suit clutch in his right hand. 

He also took notice when Dick had slipped free from his own room a few hours later and dressed in a black spandex costume before slipping out from the window that he mentioned to Jason to escape before. 

Jason learnt to sleep two hours at a time and he purposely fell asleep after Dick slipped freely away without a sound. When he opened his eyes, he listened around and slipped from his own room. He headed down the hall, slow and careful steps before slipping Dick's door open. He took notice that Dick was already back in his own bed and sleeping to be asleep. 

Wherever he had escaped towards had not last long. Dick was clever, he knew he'd have to be quick and back in bed before anyone could assume he ever tried leaving. Dick held a silent timetable over this place and knew how to safely slip away. 

Jason soon returned to his borrow bed and slept the rest of the night without a hitch. He held many unanswered questions but he knew better than to ask any of them. 

Once morning came Jason was downstairs and given breakfast. He took notice that Dick had at some point took a shower, his hair was still drying out and he was dressed in a new spandex outfit. Bright red and gold, it shined and caught anyone gaze and brought out the older boy's smile even more. 

Jason did glance down to his offered breakfast, wondering if Dick had eaten anything yet and Dick was soon sliding in the chair opposite him with a friendly smile. Promising he's already eaten with the mister earlier that morning. But Instead of leaving Jason alone to eat, he stayed sitting with him so the younger boy wasn't forced to eat by himself. 

And Jason took notice he hasn't seen the mister and assumed he went out for business reasons. Dick didn't say anything and Jason never asked over it. He simply took the time to wonder about a little more while Dick went to do his own thing. 

"Whoa, you're a bird or smoothing?" Jason awed out as he stood on the steps to the stage, watching Dick fly about in the bird cage. 

Dick gave a startled laugh, landing perfectly on his feet and doing a silly bow before smiling towards the other boy. 

"I'm an acrobat" Dick answered with a proud grin as he walked over towards the bird cage doorway. He was done with his little warm up and practice for this morning.
