Dick Grayson sat in his car. Memories and thoughts filling his head constantly. Donna Troy. She was gone. And she wasn't coming back.
Say something, I'm giving up on you...
"This place gives me the creeps!"
"You're very disturbed Robin."
"So, we're like, inside your head?"
I'll be the one if you want me too.
That hadn't been funny at the time, but thinking back on it, it made Dick smile. But more memories came swiftly...
Anywhere I would have followed you.
"Donna, I'm screwing things up, aren't I?"
"Nothing that can't get unscrewed. That sounds wrong, but you know what I mean."
"You have an answer for everything?"
"I'm told that's what Donnas do."
Say something I'm giving up on you...
He started the engine and drove down the all too familiar road. He needed advice. He needed his secret love.
And I.... I'm feeling so small
It was over my head
I know nothing at all.
He passed the coffee shop, now the super store. More memories....
And I...will stumble and fall
I'm still learning to love
Just starting to crawl
"I know. It's got nothing to do with any of you. Or this team, or even me, really. Nightwing belongs to two families. And all of you... you're good. You have each other. I have to go take care of my other family. In Gotham."
Say something, I'm giving up on you
He sighed a heavy sigh. They had been the Teen Titans. They were always there for each other. And he didn't doubt, that even in death, they still could.
I'm sorry that I couldn't get to you
Anywhere I would've followed you
"You were there for me when Terry and Robert died, we were there for Wally when he had lost Barry. And we would have been there for you, if you hadn't started pulling the aloof Batman bit already. And we're gonna be there for Roy when he pulls out of this and has to deal with what happened to Lian. And he WILL pull out of this!"
Say something, I'm giving up on you
Richard pulled his car out into the highway. He felt another memory emerge from the depths of his mind.
And I...will swallow my pride
You're the one that I love
And I'm saying goodbye
"Donna, I--I'm so sorry. There was a car crash. Bobby didn't make it... He-- This isn't real."
"I know..."
Say something, I'm giving up on you
Dick pulled into the cemetery parking lot. Slowly, oh so slowly, the man got out of the vehicle and began the walk to her grave.
And I'm sorry that I couldn't get to you
Dick walked to her grave and touched the stone carefully, delicately, as if the slightest bit of pressure would shatter the carved stone. "Donna... I need you to listen, please." he spoke softly, his voice cracking slightly with emotion.
Anywhere I would've followed you
"Everything seems to be going... downhill. Roy... he told me I'm becoming... I'm becoming him Donna. Without you... everything seems so... empty. After everything that has happened since... since that day, it all just hurts." By now tears softly fell down his cheeks. "I love you Donna Troy... I love you so much..."
Donna knew Dick was there, she watched him always, wherever he went. She also knew who was watching her love besides herself.
Say something, I'm giving up on you
"I bet she feels the same way Dick," Roy said placing a soft hand on Dick's shoulder, startling Richard into a jump. "It was obvious you both cared about each other," Wally said walking up to his old pal. "I know it hurts, it'll always hurt," Garth added coming up to Dick as well. Dick began sobbing. He had so much pent up feelings and emotions... God he loved this lady.
Say something, I'm giving up on you
They walked, comforting each other around the cemetery.
"How about the Titans? Like the Greek rulers?"
"The Teen Titans!"
"I like the sound of that."
"We do make a pretty good team."
"And you did okay as a leader, you know, this time."
Say something....
