"Hey Babs." Robin said, landing next to Barbara. He saw her face. "Wait, what's wrong?"
"My friend Dick...he's started dating this horrible girl named Brittany Houser. And I'm kinda jealous." She sighed.
"Maybe he's just trying to make you jealous." Robin said carefully.
"Why? I'm not dating anyone." She said.
"Maybe he knows you've been hanging out with me." Robin suggested. "But seriously, if he can't see how amazing and pretty and smart and talented you are, then he's not worth your time."
Barbara narrowed her eyes at him.
"You know something I don't." She observed.
"See...the thing is..." Robin started. Bruce's going to kill him for this. "I'm Dick Grayson." He pulled off his mask. Barbara slapped him.
"Sorry." She added as an afterthought.
"I probably deserved that." Dick admitted.
"So...I really have been hanging out with you." Barbara said. "But why are you dating Britt?"
"Well...I got kinda jealous of Robin, when you didn't tell me about him...and you know, with the cupcakes and stuff." Dick said sheepishly.
"But you're Robin." Barbara hugged him. "No one would ever replace either of you."
"Thanks, Babs. Guess I'm gonna break up with Brittany." He sighed.
"What?"
"I wasn't lying when I said I was jealous." Dick said.
"What about when you said I was amazing and pretty and smart and talented?" Barbara smirked.
"Heh. I wasn't lying then either." He rubbed the back of his neck.
"That's...good." She blushed, leaning on to his shoulder. "I just have one last question."
"Shoot."
"Is there a batgirl?"
