I woke up with a throbbing headache, rubbing my head as I sat up. My vision was blurry and I had trouble focusing my eyes, so I couldn't quite tell where I was. The only clue I had was the fuzzy carpet I felt underneath my fingertips.

I heard voices on the other side of the door, they were muffled but I could still make out what they were saying, and that they were arguing, even if I didn't know who was saying it. I identified the voice of two males.

"You need to back off of her."

"I need to protect her."

"She's not yours to protect."

"You surely aren't going to do it! I came and all of you were about to attack her."

"She's my girlfriend!" So I could assume that was Jaime, and the only person who would say something negative to Jaime is Dick. So they were arguing about me? I waited patiently until my eyes adjusted to the dim light and continued listening through the door as they argued the same point repeatedly.

I opened the door slowly, which kept me in a room within the cave- most likely M'gann's room judging by it's femininity and tidiness. They stopped talking immediately and stared at me with tired eyes.

"I don't need protection. I'm a big girl and quite frankly I'm pretty bad*ss, if I do say so myself." I stated sniffly, crossing my arms and refusing to look directly at either of them.

"I know that, amor." Jaime said, reaching out to me and stroking my arm, "And I'm sorry for how I acted at the club. But I was just scared." He caressed my cheek and made me turn to look at him. Then Jaime whispered quietly "Can I kiss you?" I nodded shyly, leaning into him.

"No! You cannot!" Dick shouted, pulling Jaime backwards by the shoulder. "Dolls, please. Listen to me." He begged, making me sigh as I rolled my eyes and looked away from him.

"Look, Nightwing- I'm in love with Jaime and--"

"You've known him for three months!" Nightwing yelled out, grabbing a fistful of his black hair. His face was turning red and he was breathing heavily, "How could you--"

"I tried giving you a break! But you're just acting like a d*ck!" I cried out, wiping my thumb under my eye. "H-how could you expect me to love you when I feel like you're always attacking me?" I fell backwards into Jaime, stepping on his foot, making him groan. "How many women did you sleep with when you thought I had died?" I asked seriously, giving him a deadly glare.

He froze, opening and closing his mouth like a fish out of water. Dick rubbed the back of his neck and looked at the ground.
"I-I-I..."

"HOW MANY!!" I shrieked. Both boys took nervous steps away from me.
"I don't know! Maybe one or two... a month, if I wasn't dating. But he made me. He forced me to because--" Dick was referring do Bruce, but I merely snorted.

"No, Nightwing, he didn't. You slept with those women so that you could feel better." I explained, sighing heavily as I began to tear up even more. "I'm with Jaime because he makes me happy. And if you really loved me you would leave us the h*ll alone."

Nightwing took a step towards me, but before I could react Jaime was in front of me with his hand out to stop Dick from coming any closer.
"Stand down, hermano." Jaime growled like an animal, guarding his territory. "I'm her boyfriend, so any problems we have we'll handle."

My eyes were wide- Jaime had always been too scared to stand up to Nightwing, and now he was prepared to fight him.

"Are you challenging me, Blue?" Dick asked, crossing his arms and raising an eyebrow.
"No. I'm not." Jaime answered, "But I am warning you."

"Like you have a chance- I'm a genius hacker with unmatched physical capability. Take away your scarab and what are you?" Dick mocked.

"Dolly's boyfriend."

The thickness of the tension increased by ten times, it was so thick, not even a knife could cut it. Jaime took a few steps back before turning back to me and taking my hand.

"I still respect you." Jaime said to Dick without looking back, "I will still follow your orders without question." Dick stood there dumbstruck as Jaime led me out of the Mountain.

A/N: it was short, but I assumed you guys were tired of waiting... So... HERE IT IS!!! Sorry I haven't updated. My doctor said I couldn't use my phone because of my concussion, sorry.
