The Circle (Damian Wayne x reader )

Chapter 7

Y/N pov

I was shaking. I couldn't control my body. I tried to take deep breath.

It took me more than thirty minutes to calm myself from my panic attack. I clenched my fists. If Damian didn't want to listen to me, I had to investigate by myself.

I looked at the screen, where pictures of the police report didn't stop to appeare. I read everything about it . Then I made researches on the crime of the swimming pool.

I bit my lips. I didn't know who did that but I thought I had more clues than Batman and Robin.

I decided to stop the researches here. My plan will begin monday.

I went back to my room. I took a long shower, then went to bed. I guessed that I'll pass another night alone. I fell asleep, my sleep being haunted by a dancing skeleton in a dark red circle, flounderring into a puddle of blood.

The next morning, I woke up in the arms of Damian. I didn't hear him enter last night. I pressed myslef against his warm body. I missed this. I stroked his raven hair. He opened a eye and smiled.

'' Hey darling '' he whispered.

I turned around.

'' Morning breath Damian''

I heared him laugh.

'' I take a shower '' I said, standing up.

I felt a pair of arms around my shoulders. '' I 'm coming with you '' he responded.

We arrived in the kitchen ,Nathan eating already. He smiled to us. Alfred gave us our plates of pancakes and we sat in front of our little boy.

'' Did you sleep well Nat? '' I asked.

He nodded, his mouht full of food. He swallowed and grinned.

'' Daddyyyyyyyyyy ? ''

'' What is it , little tiger ? ''

'' Can you play with me today ? Pretty please !!! ''

Damian smiled and ruffled his hair. '' I have to work today, but I'll do my best to come back soon enough to play baseball with you. What do you think about it ?''

'' Yeaaaaaah '' he shouted, putting his arms up, a big grin on his face.

I spend the day with Nathan. We went to Gotham, the manor being a little far from the city. We went to a park and I pushed him on a swing. Then we bought cookies and ate them sitting on a bench.

'' When we'll come back at home, I'll play baseball with daddy '' Nathan giggled, excitedly.

We arriced at the manor but Damian wasn't here yet. I saw Nathan pouted, but he said nothing and went to his room, closing the door after him.

I sighed. I knew he was upset. I took my phone and called Damian. He didn't answer.

Time passed and it's now time for dinner. Nathan's mood was down. He didn't eat a lot, playing with his fork, without putting food in his mouth.

'' Eat something Nat '' I said to him.

He nodded but did nothing.'' Nat, look at me ''

He looked up at me with sad eyes. ''Oh Nat, don't cry. I'm sure daddy will spend time with you tomorrow. '' I said

I stood up and came to hug him. I sat him on my laps and fed him. He put his head against my chest.

'' Mommy ? '' he said with a sad tone.

'' What is it, little tiger ? '' I asked softly.

'' Do you think daddy doesn't love me anymore ? ''

Tears rolled down his cheeks.

'' Oh baby, don't cry. Of course daddy loves you. He loves you so much. Don't doubt about that.''

'' B-but he is nev-v-ver here t-to p-play with m-m-me '' he sobbed. '' He n-never sp-pend t-time with me an-nymore ''

I hugged him again.

'' Daddy loves you Nat. He is just busy with his work. I'll talk to him okay ? ''

~ time skip ~

It was the night. Nathan was asleep. I was waiting in the living room. Suddenly my phone rang. I picked up. It was Damian.

'' Hey love ''

'' Hey ''

'' I can't come back before tomorrow night, sorry ''

'' Sorry ? I sit the only thing you have to say ? '' I responded quite angry.

'' What ? ''

'' Did you forget ? Oh god, you forgot, don't you ? ''

'' I don't understand Y/N... ''

'' I talk about your son,Damian. Do you remember that you have a son who was waiting all day to play with you ?! ''

'' I'm sorry. I c ... ''

'' You are always sorry but you'r never here to say it to him.''

'' But the work ... ''

'' Do your work is more important than your son ? You'r never here. I can stand to sleep alone almost each nights. But Nathan is a four-year-old little boy, and he needs his father ! ''

'' Y/N, I can't stop working ! I'm working in order to pay all the things he need ! ''

'' He doesn't care about material things ! He just wants his father to take him in his arms and play with him ! You have to be here for him. You'r his father.And I don't want to see my son crying again thinking that his father doesn't love him ! ''

'' Listen, I have to hung up now but ... ''

'' No! You listen to me now ! Nathan has you since only a year and ... ''

'' Thanks to who ? '' he cuts me codly.

I stayed quite, not believing what he just said. Tears rolled down my cheeks witthout me noticing.

'' Listen Damian. I'll do like I didn't hear you say that. '' I sniffed '' But is in your best interest to be here monday to pick up Nathan from school to spend time with him ''

I hung up, breaking into tears.
