Dick was over the moon as today was his favourite day, (as was every day!) He hummed happily as he was heading down to the kitchen for breakfast. He couldn't wait! He had so many Valentine's! (Kory, Babs, Helena..) Life was good for a bachelor slash crime fighter. Everything was bright and cheery until he heard his brothers..

"What is the meaning of this 'Valentine's'?!" Damian demanded as he eyed the stack of red and pink envelopes that took up the whole table. He has his arms folded, still in his kitty onesie, as his brothers, Jason and Tim happily looked through them. Dick stopped on the spot. That's right! Damian had never heard of such a holiday! Dick rushed right in and snagged his little brother into a bone crushing hug, ignoring his shouts of protest. "Grayson, I demand you let go off me!" Damian tried desperately to get the older man off of him.

"Yeah, Dick. Don't waste your time on that brat. There's a mountain full of hotties that left their numbers here," Jason Todd said as he shovelled his eggs and beacon into his mouth. Dick glared at Jason. "I have a date right now but I guess I can skip so that I can teach Dami about V day!" Dick said happily and Damian let out a huff. That's when Jason got a 'brilliant' idea. "You go. Timmy and I will teach him!" A smirk snuck onto Jason's face and Tim looked up in confusion. "We will?" He asked and Jason nodded. Dick looked unsure and Damian was silently begging Dick not to leave him with the two idiots. "I guess you guys could handle it. See you guys later!" Dick walked off and Damian groaned, as he banged his head on the table.

"Did you see how hurt Dick was?!" Jason said with a sad smile. Both Damian and Tim looked at him with confusion. "He didn't seem that upset to me," Tim remarked as he stared in the former Robin's direction. Jason just nodded. "Poor fellow was masking his pain!" Damian grumbled as he folded his arms. "What are you on about, Todd?" Jason shook his head. "Just the fact that Dickie Bird was expecting a card from you, brat." Tim had to cover his mouth to stop himself from laughing. "That's preposterous! This day is for lovers, is it not?" Jason just shook his head and nudged Tim to play along. "Now that you mention it. He did seem in a rush to leave. Poor guy." Tim said with a thoughtful expression.

"Don't worry, brat. We'll help you make it up to him.." Jason smirked..

When Dick arrived home after his many dates he was surprised to see that no one was around. He quickly looked around the house and found a cake in the kitchen. It was pink and had red frosting that spelt out 'brotherly love is the best love, Grayson.' Confused, Dick walked into the Batcave to find Damian holding a red card and a stuffed teddy while dressed in a Robin onesie. And he could just make out Tim and Jason dying of laughter in the corner. "Little D, what's all this?" Seeing Dick, Damian blushed. "I made you a card, Grayson. Take it before I break your neck." Damian gestured to the card in his hands. Dick took the card.
It had the whole family drawn on it. Dick began to fangirl and wouldn't let go of Damian as he crushed him in a hug. "Aww! Little D! I'll be your Valentine! You're so adorable!" Damian realised that his brothers' had played him and began to yell threats to both of them while trying to escape Dick's hug. Jason and Tim were on the floor wetting themselves.
