I woke up tired and drowsy, but I guess that was how every kid woke up for school. I preceded a button on my alarm to shut it off until next morning. I looked at the time and realized I had woken up late. Luckily for me I got dressed quick, but I might be skipping breakfast.

Within a matter of minutes I was downstairs, and saw Bruce eating.

"I thought you were already at school." Bruce said confused. Though what got me confused was the look of guilt on his face," Alfred's waiting in the car."

"Oh, sorry. I woke up late" I smiled sheepishly as I ran towards the front door, but stopped when I opened it. Maybe it's want guilt. Maybe he was just remembering last night.

"Hey Bruce?"

"Yes Dick?"

"Thanks for last night." I quickly flew out the door, but before I did I heard Bruce mumble," Anytime."

~~~

I briskly walked my way into Gotham Academy, but right as I entered I was squeezed in a tight hug.

"Dick! Oh my gosh. I'm so sorry. I just heard my dad told me last night." Babs said looking saddened. I gave her a confused look. We only had two minutes to get to class.

"Um... You're forgiven... I guess. Why are you sorry exactly?" I asked her. She looked at me as of she was trying to decipher whether or not I was lying.

"You seriously don't know? Bruce hasn't told you anything?" She asked looking even more saddened. Great, now we had only one minute.

"Um... No, but we don't have much tim- Wait, what would Bruce know?" I asked. Was this why Wally had asked me if I was okay. What was Bruce not telling me? I mean I'm practically his son. I doubt he would hide something that bad from me. Though if it was that bad why did everyone know about it? Was I on the news or something? Is Bruce going back to jail? What was going on? Please don't tell me Bruce was going back to jail.

"Dick, did he seriously not tell you? It's been more than a month. " She asked. I was worried about what she was talking about, but I probably only had a few seconds to get to class. I think I can make it.

"Um... I don't think so. Look I have to go!" I said running," Tell me at lunch!"

"I can't! My dad is picking me up early!" She called running the other way. Great, she can't even tell me at lunch. After school I had to ask Bruce what Babs was talking about, and if he didn't talk I was going to ask Wally. I mean it's already been a month (according to Barbara) what would he be hiding from me. What would he be hiding anything from me at all?

(Sorry for the short chapter. I've been busy preparing for school... Oops I meant preparing for prison... :()
