When Love Is Turned Into A Weapon

Chapter Eight: New Beginings

Wally, Dick, Jaime and Bart went off into the Zeta tubes and out into Gotham City where they decided to spend the night out together. They managed to look respectable, renewing themselves from previous events that happened earlier.

Dick walked down the streets of Gotham beside Wally. To the eyes of the public they were more than reasonably close, more closer than any other ordinary pair of friends but obviously they were more than that.

Jaime and Bart were still new at the relationships thing, not having at much experience compared to the mature couple. Maybe that's why Jaime and Bart wanted them there, to learn off them.

"So, are we gonna get something to eat or what?" Impulse whined.

"He really is related to you, isn't he." Dick chuckled, it was a rhetorical question.

"He's blood, and by the looks of things, and like, I recon he has good taste in men." Wally bragged.

Jaime blushed at his comment.

After a comforting walk and appreciating each other's presence, they finally arrive at a formal, high quality performing restaurant.

Dick revealed to the group. "Bruce used to take me out here when I was younger. He used to take me here with Barry."

"Bruce and Barry... took you out here?" Impulse was onto something. Dick did not reply.

They were taken inside at a large round table in the corner of the restaurant by a waitress, formally dressed and beyond well mannered. "It's good to finally see you again. Here is you table, Master Dick." She guided them into their seats. "My name is Margaret and I will be your assistant for tonight." She announced to the group.

Bart and Wally were the first to speak their orders, they ordered all the fancy and expensive dishes listed on the menu provided by Margaret. They almost ordered similar dishes, not surprised after all, they are related. Jaime and Dick waited about 5 solid minutes before they could try to order their food.

"Will that be all for now?" Margaret asked ever so politely.

"Yes, thank you Margaret."

Margaret bowed and departed with the orders for the chefs to cook.

"You know, she reminds me of Alfred." Wally put in.

"That's his sister, which is why Bruce, Barry and I go here often." Wally grind at his bird.

"Oh, that's why she knows your name."He added, sighing from finally understanding.

Their orders arrived on the table, they were served by differently dressed participants compared to the waiters of the restaurant, they seem to be the chefs, wearing all white, surprisingly no stains or wrinkles on the uniform that would possibly indicate some form of stress. It seems, this restaurant was the real deal.

"That's a lot of food hermano." Jaime observed.

"Well there's a lot of us, thus a lot of food." Impulse jested.

"You and I count as 5 persons since our stomachs are different from our partners." Wally laughed.

They all spoke amongst each other about themselves, well, it was more like Wally and Dick got to know Jaime and Bart better and vise versa, during their dinner. After their dine in, they departed from the restaurant and headed to wander the city of Gotham before each of them head home.

They arrive at Gotham beech, it was deserted, most likely due to the fact that it was 9:30 pm. The scenery was beautiful, perfect for a night like this. It was a wonderful way to end the date. Wally and Dick sat on the sand bed leaning against the other holding hands. Jaime and Bart did the same. They stared into the ocean and watched the massive moon kiss the surface of the water. They breathed in fresh cold air as moon's reflection sparked above the ocean and the sweet cold breeze tickled their skin forcing them to hold onto one another more tightly.
