Allen-West Household.

Dick's POV(point of view):

I sat there very still on the couch at Barry's and Iris's home. I wrapped my arms around myself as a tear fell from underneath my mask. I felt like I had no energy, I felt done like I've had enough. I turn my head a bit to listen to Iris talking with Barry on the phone. I inhale sharply knowing that they would be here soon, that Bruce my father would find out that I was here. That everything would be out in the open now. Fear froze my entire body and I shut my eyes tightly as if to block out the rest of the world. 

I felt like I was suffocating right now, everything was so not whelmed, it was overwhelming and I hated it. My entire life...world felt like it was crashing down upon me, that everything was broken and was never ever going to be alright again. More tears filled my masked eyes. 

"Barry, he's here dressed as Robin. He was crying something is very wrong I can feel it. Yeah...no I understand...Okay, love ya too. Be safe Flash.'' said Iris and hung up the phone. She slowly walked into the room and looked down at me. She sent me a smile and I turned away. I just couldn't. 

"I need to leave. They don't want me here. I'm in the way. I'm messing everything up. She Had to call Barry because of me, interrupted his time as The Flash. Everyone hates me. I am so stupid. Why can't I do anything right?" I thought.

Just then a familiar breeze of wind brushed passed my face. I didn't move or look to see what it was, my eyes held tightly shut as I continued to think. I felt the couch dip down then strong arms were suddenly wrapped around me. Without looking I knew it was Wally, my best friend.
"I don't know why he is even here? Why is he my friend, I'm nothing. I'm worthless. He deserves someone so much better than me as his friend.'' I thought as more tears came and ran down my face. His grip on me tighten. I was breaking down, losing the little bit of control I had left. My body let go and I began to shake with sobs. Wally moved closer and laid his chin on my shoulder, his head right next to mind. I open my eyes for one second to look over at him and I can see that he is sad, that this is hurting him, that I am hurting him. My bottom lip begins to quiver and my breathing picks up and I cry even more and now its audible. He pulls me closer into his warm chest and I see him shut his eyes tightly. I close my eyes once more and lean into his hold as I shake. I cry for so long that eventually I black out and is asleep within Wally's warm, protective arms. 

----------------------------------------------

Once Wally noticed that Dick was asleep, he quickly sweep Dick up in his arms, carrying him bridal style and walked slowly towards his bedroom. Wally slowly opened his bedroom door to be met with his dark room. He flipped the switch on and took his time walking over towards his bed. For he knew how Dick slept. He hardly ever slept and when he did it didn't last long or he would have terrible nightmares and wake up in a panic state. Wally gently laid his best friend down upon the bed and looked down at him. He could see the tear tracks stained upon his face. Wally sighed.

Just as he was about to sit on the side of the bed next to Dick, something caught his eye. He crunched his eye brows and leaned forward. A dark crimson was on Robin's glove. As Wally moved closer he noticed that it was blood, his green eyes widen and he moved quickly next to Robin. He without thinking removed his glove and pulled his sleeve up. He took a sudden step backwards, shock all over his face and sadness now running deep within his veins. He shook he head, he couldn't believe what he was seeing.
Cuts and scars all along his best friend's wrist. Wall drew in a shaky breath, tears welling up in his eyes. Then he noticed that some of his cuts were fresh and still bleeding. Wally didn't waste a second for he ran and got some medical supplies and went right back to Dick and began to clean up the blood and clean the cuts before bandaging them up.

After he was down with Robin's arm, he went to his other wrist and found similar markings but no new fresh cuts. He sighed and looked down at his best friend. He was upset with himself for not noticing how much pain Dick was in. Then his mind flashed to when they were at the Mount just a few hours ago and he noticed how Dick winced in pain, but he decided not to ask him about it. Wally soon felt terrible, that wasn't the first time he noticed his best friend in pain and it wasn't the first time Wally kept his worries and questions to himself. 

Wally shook his head breaking himself out of his thoughts about how crappy of a friend he has been over the years. Wally used his super speed to grab some clothes from his closet and took off the Robin suit and put Dick in a new outfit. The t-shirt was a bit longer on Dick and the sweat pants were a bit baggy. Wally tossed the Robin suit on his desk chair and he sat down next to Dick. Wally slowly reached over and just as his fingertips touched his masked, Dick jumped and pushed himself as far back, away from Wally. His masked eyes were large and he was breathing rapidly, he was panicking. Wally stood up with his hands up showing Dick he meant no harm, that he was safe.

Dick quickly looked around the room and his breathing slowed down. He soon recognized it as Wally's room. He then looked back over at Wally. He reached up and took his mask off slowly. He looked down for a moment before looking up at Wally.

"Wally?" Dick questioned.
"Yeah. Sorry I-I didn't mean to wake you.'' said Wally as he slowly moved towards the bed and sat down. Dick looked down once more and noticed that he was no longer dressed in his uniform. He looked around the room and saw it. Just then his mind caught up with his eyes and he looked at Wally with fear traced in his bright blue eyes. He instinctively pulled his arms back, out of sight. Wally just nodded his head and then reached down and pulled his long sleeve up to show Dick his scars. Dick's eyes doubled. He had no idea. He knew that Wally's dad was abusive but he didn't realized that, that pain and hurt lead to Wally self harming.

"I-I I'm so sorry!'' said Dick who moved forward quickly and threw his arms tightly around Wally's neck. Wally shushed him and wrapped his arms around Dick as he began to cry. After a few minutes they pulled a part from one and other, looking into each other's eyes. Wally slowly moved first, reaching across the bed and intertwining his fingers in Dick's hand. Dick break eye contact with Wally and looked down at their hands. A warmness filled him and his stomach was flipping, he felt nervous all of a sudden.

"It's okay Dick, it's all going to be okay.'' said Wally and Dick moved closer towards him. Wally reached his other hand out and cupped Dick's face, in which he lean into it and closed his eyes. Wally smiled the brought Dick into his lap and held him. 

Soon enough they both fell asleep in each others arms.
