Saving The Heart

Part Four : Chapter Six

Ugh, guys I'm so sorry I'm A WHOLE WEEK LATE! I don't think I can keep up with updating once a week. Maybe once every two weeks? I'm working on it...

I love you too, Jon.

"Superboy," Damian said, "why do you have that recording?"

"I-um-" Jon struggled to explain. His face was as red as his cape. "Tim gave it to me for my birthday!"

I love you too, Jon.

"HE WHAT!?"

"So your real name is Jon, huh?" Kathryn realized aloud. Damian was staring daggers at both of them.

I love you too, Jon.

"Well answer it!" Damian yelled. Jon scrambled for his phone in his pocket. He pulled it out and answered it.

"Hello?"

The door to the room burst open, revealing the rest of the Teen Titans. Starfire stood in front, the fake president in one hand and her phone in the other, held up to her face.

"Superboy, we found the liar," she spoke into the phone. Jon hung up. Damian looked like he was ready to combust.

"And it looks like you've found the other one," Aqualad stated, pointing at Kathryn. Beast boy turned into a bird and flew over to Kathryn's head, settling down in her hair.

"So what's your name?" he asked Kathryn. She shook her head and waved her arms furiously to get him off.

"Geez," Beast Boy said as he flew to land on Raven's head instead. She did nothing and let him sit there.

"The police are on their way," she reported to Damian.

"Good," Damian said, calming down. "How about we leave them a little gift?"

"Sounds great to me," Starfire agreed, tossing the fake mayor towards Kathryn as if he weighed nothing. He crashed into her worth a thud and they both groaned on the floor.

"Tie them up," Damian said, and Raven used her powers to tie the two together with a giant chain.

"Ok, well since that's cleared up, I have to go so I'll just be leaving," Jon said and started to walk quickly out the door.

"Oh no you don't!" Damian chased after him. "Good work Titans, meet with you later!" he yelled back.

The other Teen Titans stood in the room in silence.

"What do you think is up with them?" Aqualad asked.

"No idea," Starfire said with a smile.

Jon flew into his room and hid in his closet. He knew Damian had probably followed him here, but hopefully he could hide-

"Jon!" The closet doors flew open and Damian stood before Jon. Jon shrieked and cowered in the closet and Damian rolled his eyes. "Jon get up."

"Are you going to kill me?" Jon asked timidly.

"No, but I should," Damian answered with a smirk. "Now get out of there!"

Jon walked out of the closet and the boys sat on Jon's bed. Damian buried his face in his hands. "I can't believe Tim gave you that video. I made him hand it over and deleted it!"

"Are you sure he didn't make copies before that?"

"... I'm going to kill him."

"Oh c'mon Damian. Besides the fact that it kinda revealed my identity, I think that video is really sweet."

"Ugh."

"... What if you had a video of me telling you I loved you?" Jon suggested. "Would that make us even?"

Damian thought for a moment. "Sure, that will do." He pulled out a small tape recorder from his belt. "Ready?"

"Yeah." Damian pressed the "play" button.

"I love you, Damian," Jon said sincerely, gazing into Damian's eyes. Damian pressed the "stop" button and put the tape recorder down next to them without even listening to it, eyes still on Jon. Both boys leaned in. He tenderly put his hand on Jon's cheek and pulled him in for a kiss. A sweet, gentle kiss. They broke apart and Jon smiled softly.

"I love you too, Jon," Damian said.

"Yeah," Jon said. "I know."
