"This is the last one, Master Dick," Alfred said, putting on a seventh bandage onto an open wound that was slowly recovering. The butler smiled and pat the top of the boy's head, turning to the green boy. "If you were not there to stop that ruffian, who knows what could have happened to your friend."

Garfield nodded, blinking at the freckled face boy and smiled softly. He then let his eyes trail over at Dick's room, looking at all of the toys scattered around on a small, beige mat and five Batman posters scattered on the walls. The walls were painted in different shades of blue from cyan to turquoise. The floor had a carpet on it, making the bedroom feel very comfortable to roam around in.

Dick smiled and gasped, realising that he hadn't told his friend his secret. Since the green boy told him his, the Boy Wonder thought that it was fair to tell him his. He looked at Alfred, biting his lip.
"Grandpa? Is it okay if I can tell Garfield our secret?"

Garfield nodded and smiled, "I promise I won't tell anyone!"

"Double promise me that you will not tell a soul?" Alfred asked, raising an eyebrow at the green boy.

Garfield nodded and crossed his heart with both hands at the same time. Dick giggled at the sight and looked at the butler, who gave a soft sigh.

"Alright," he said, smiling at Garfield and then Dick. "Put it on then."

Dick gasped and nodded, running to the closet and changing into his disguise. The green boy tilted his head and was about to quiestion what his friend was doing. Alfred shushed him and chuckled as Robin came out of the closet, fixing his goggles. Garfield gave out a big gasp and walked up to Robin.

"You're Robin!?" He asked, excitedly. Robin nodded and smiled big. Garfield smiled larger and giggled. "This is so cool! I won't tell anyone about this, I promise!"

Robin nodded and giggled with the green boy, grabbing his friend's hand and pulling him out of the room quickly. "That's not all! There's more. But, when I show you this part, you can't tell anyone!"

"Why not?" Garfield asked as they headed towards Batman and Joker's bedroom, in which they were napping in. The door was opened up a little, a small crack of a yellow dim light could be seen.

Robin looked at through the crack and then at his friend with a serious face. He then said in a whisper, "because, my dads could get in big trouble."

"Dads?" Garfield echoed back silently in a questionable tone. "You have two dads?!"

Robin nodded and smiled as he opened the door a little wider. He looked back at the green boy, who had his two hands out. Each one had their pinkys sticking out. "I triple promise I won't tell anyone!" Their pinkys intertwined tightly as the then went inside the room.

Batman was sleeping, holding onto the Joker. The couple were sound asleep in the peace and quiet. The two boys tipped toed to the edge of the bed and Garfield saw the faces. He couldn't believe what he was seeing. The freckled face smiled and blushed softly as he kissed his dads on the cheek, leaving the room with his friend quickly. His green face had turned light-green with shock. Robin shut the door quietly and smiled at the green boy and smiled big.
"What do you think?"

Garfield shook his head and smiled, his eyes filled with a little bit of worry. He then said, "your dads are Batman and Joker! That's super cool, Dick! But..." He trailed off, making the other worried.

"But what?"

"Isn't Mister Joker mean and a criminal?" He asked softly, his hands folding into a ball.

Robin nodded and giggled, "but we still fight him! It's fun! He even said so."

Garfield nodded and smiled evem bigger, "then, that's even cooler! You're so lucky"

Robin smiled, hugging his friend quickly and giggled softly. They then heard Alfred call them for snack. The two then ran into the kitchen to have a nice, healthy afternoon snack of carrots and ranch dressing.
