A few months later...

"Madre!" shouted Dick, "where are my trainers? School starts in 20 minutes!"
Jack sighed. "By the front door, same as always, honey."
"Thanks Madre!"
Dick scrambled down the stairs hastily, only to be stopped at the bottom by Jack, looking disapprovingly at the state of Dick's uniform.
"Have you been rolling around on the floor or something, Dick? Honestly!"
Jack tucked in Dick's shirt, annoyed at his newfound son's ability to make anything look messy, and adjusted the new school blazer they had bought the week before. It was Dick's first day at his new secondary school, the only school he'd ever been to, for since he was adopted by Bruce at age seven he had been homeschooled by Alfred.

Bruce then came down the stairs, managing to look almost as dishevelled as his son.
"Look at you two," sighed Jack, "sometimes I think it's impossible you're not related."
The family shared a hearty laugh.
Bruce looked at his watch.
"Oh, shit. Dick, you're gonna be late for school. I'll drive you, it's faster. Bye Jack!" Bruce kissed his husband on the cheek, grabbed Dick's hand, and ran out the door.
Jack smiled.
