Dick POV

I looked down at (Y/N) lying in my bed, her bare shoulders out of the corners and her back facing me. She clutched the sheets closer around her body and took a deep breath in her sleep. (Y/N) and I have been dating for around a year and I've been waiting for the chance to tell her I'm Nightwing, but I can never bring myself to tell her.

After my internal dilemma, I finally tore my eyes away from her beautiful form and put my suit on. Before I left out the window, I sat on the edge of the bed next to (Y/N) and ran my fingers through her (H/L) (H/C) hair. I kissed her forehead before walking out to our balcony and leaping off the edge. As the ground rushed towards me, I pulled out my grapnel gun and fired it at an adjacent building. I flew towards the roof, the wind blowing my already messy hair out of place. Once my feet were grounded on the roof, I looked back at the open balcony door of my apartment.

"You haven't told her yet?" a deep voice startled me. I whipped my escrima sticks out and faced the person behind me. Batman gave me the really look and I sighed.

"I'm doing this for her own good," I defended my actions. "This is a dangerous life and I don't want to drag her into it. Besides, aren't you always the one who insists I keep my identity a secret." Batman placed a hand on my shoulder and sighed.

"While I do stand by my previous decision to have you not tell her," he spoke. "This is what I am telling you now. She will eventually find out one way or the other. They always do." I ran my hands through my hair and yelled, storming over to the nearest wall. I threw my fist forward and slammed it into the hard brick with a grunt.

"I-I can't lose her Bruce," I panted. "She's everything to me." Bruce studied my face for a long time before turning away from me. "Where are you going?" I demanded.

"Take the night off Dick," he told me as he reached the edge. "Tell (Y/N) everything."

(Y/N) POV

I awoke to a gentle breeze blowing through the open balcony. Why was the window open? I moved the covers off my body, found my panties on the floor and put them on with one of Dick's t-shirts. Aiming to shut the window and go back to sleep, I not-so-gracefully maneuvered the floor to the balcony. When I went to shut the glass, I found my boyfriend leaning against the railing, looking out into Bludhaven.

"Dick?" I questioned, rubbing my eyes. He turned and smiled.

"I'm sorry (Y/N)," he stepped towards me and wrapped me in a hug. "Did I wake you?" I shook my head.

"The open window did," I explained. "What are you doing out here?" Dick sighed and ran a hand through his dark hair.

"Just...couldn't sleep," Dick told me. I sighed tiredly and pulled him back inside. He shut the glass behind us. We laid on the bed, my head on his chest. The last thing I remember is Dick playing with my (H/C) hair before I drifted into sleep.

Dick POV

I know I should have told her, but it was late, she was tired and I really didn't mean to wake her up. I was planning on coming up with a decent way to tell her in the morning, but then there she was. My chest rose with my breath, moving (Y/N)'s head up as well. My fingers were tangled in her beautiful, soft, (H/L) hair. How am I going to do this. It's not something you can say in everyday talk. I can't say, "Oh hey (Y/N), by the way, I'm a vigilante by night and I work with Batman." She'd have a heart attack. I'll come up with a way to tell her in the morning, and my eyes closed.
