Night life (A Nightwing and original character Fanfiction)

Chapter Thirty Three

((Damian's POV))
(Three months later)

Emma, Dick, Cain and Haden have been staying at the manor since the incident with Slade. He had just slipped away from me before Dick took Emma to the hospital.

I sighed and pulled my knees up to my chest resting my head on top of them. I could hear Emma just down the hall yelling at who I assume is father.

She never really got along with him but now... she doesn't get along with anyone. She's been distant and quiet and never smiles anymore. Not even at her sons.

I heard something break and a door being slammed signalling that someone left the argument.

I pray that idiot comes through for me. I miss the old Emma.

"Master Damian."

I snapped out of my thoughts and looked up at the butler. "Yes Alfred?"

"There is a man by the name of Wade here to see you."

I quickly got up and ran to the door.

Please, please, please, tell me he did it!

((Emma's POV))

"Emma please just talk to me." Dick pleaded as I stared out the window blankly. "I know how you feel Emma... but we both need to try to move on. "

"You obviously don't know how I feel." I snapped bitterly. "Because if you did you wouldn't try to force me to be happy."

"I'm not trying to force you to do anything. I just don't want you getting depressed."

"I'm already depressed Dick. I lost my child... my son because of some bastard I could've killed years ago!"

"You didn't kill him because you're a better person then he will ever be."

"Maybe I don't want to be the better person!!" I shouted angrily. "I want him to suffer! I want him to wish he was in hell!"

"And you think I don't!?" He shouted back just as angry. "He was my son too! You don't think I'm suffering just because I'm not acting like a total bitch!?"

I clench my fists and glared at him as he glared back. "So that's how you see me? A complete bitch!? Well I'm sorry Dick that my pain for the loss of the only child I will ever be able to have is upsetting me!!"

I felt tears well up in my eyes and Dick's expression softened a bit. "Emma I-"

"No. Just no. I'm done! I can't deal with this. You can't see and except the fact how much this has affected me and you sure as hell don't understand what I'm going through!" I shouted as my tears started to spill from my eyes. "I'm sorry Dick... I just can't... we're over."

I made my way to the door but Dick grabbed my wrist pulling me back roughly. "That's it!? Your just going to give up on us!? For three years we thought the other was dead but still loved them! We didn't give up then but now you do!?"

I shook my head and yanked my wrist away. "You don't understand."

"What don't I understand!?" He shouted grabbing me again.

"We've changed Dick!!" I screamed. "I've changed! And I don't deserve you! Okay!? We can't keep holding each other back!"

"But Em!"

"No! Just stop Dick!!" I cried prying my self free from his grip.

I quickly ran out the door slamming it shut hearing something shatter from inside.

I just can't anymore... he deserves so much better...

((Dick's POV))

She slammed the door shut and I gritted my teeth together as I punched the TV.

Has she always felt that way?

I felt tears start to stream down my cheeks but left them letting them splatter onto my shirt.

First I lose my baby boy and now the love of my life just left me cause we 'changed'.

I replayed her words in my head and cried harder.

'We've changed Dick!! I've changed! And I don't deserve you! Okay!? We can't keep holding each other back!'

"But your the night to my wing." I whispered quietly.

(Later that evening)

I felt tears roll down my cheeks as I held him close to me. My baby boy Gabriel.

"How did you-?"

"It was easy. Just had to sneak into the league of assassins steal a tank thingy and some of the water from the lazarus pit and bing bang boom baby!"

Damian rolled his eyes at the masked man and turned to me. "It was my idea."

"Yeah but I did all the work." The man said pointing to himself.

"Thank you both." I said sincerely as more tears threatened to spill.

I gazed down at Gabriel's peaceful face and smiled running my thumb over his soft cheek.

"Hate to ruin your moment but ah you can't stay here." The man spoke up making my gaze snap up.

"What?"

"Slade will come after you if you stay here." Damian said sadly. "You, Dick, and the boys need to leave. Deadpool will take you wherever you want."

Dick...

I grimaced at the thought of our argument and sighed. I really did mean everything I said about us. I don't know if we're good for each other anymore...

"Emma?" Damian asked making me turn my attention back to him.

I shook my head and glanced down at my baby. "Just me and Gabriel. Not the others... They'll be safer here... without me."

Damian nodded in understanding and I hugged him tightly with my free arm.

"I'll miss you Emma." he whispered and I could feel a few of his tears hit my skin.

"I'll miss you too."

I let go of him and he wiped his eyes dry before exiting my room.

"So where to?" Wade asked leaning against my dresser.

"Paris... but first I have to do somethings." I muttered.

((Dick's POV))
(Morning)

I woke up from a restless sleep and stretched out sighing as I felt the empty space beside me. I missed sleeping beside Emma, I need to make things right.

I went to get up when I noticed a slip of folded up paper with my name on it on my bedside table.

Dick,

I'm sorry for all the pain and trouble I've caused you over the past five years we've known each other.

I hope you know how much I love you and that I'm sorry for our argument yesterday, but I did mean it. I've changed a lot over the past years. My attitude toward life has become... darker. While your's still shines.

You deserve someone better then me. Someone that can see the good in anyone and the bright side of things... Unlike me.

They trained me for three years to be cold blooded and I think they succeeded. I don't know any other feeling besides pain anymore...

Please tell the boys I love them with all my heart and that I'm sorry. I understand if you all hate me but I will always love you.

I'm so sorry...

And Dick... Your the Night to my Wing.

Emma~
