 I thought this image was so adorable! Props to the person who made it. Anyways, for those of you who are still here, thank you so much for sticking around and enjoy!

"Shh, it was just a dream. Just a dream, okay? None of it was real." I calmly whispered into Dick's ear as he trembled from his recent nightmare. I was having a great dream about Batman in a pink costume when I had heard screaming coming from my boyfriend's room, so being the great girlfriend I was, I rushed to comfort him. I found him hanging off the side of the bed, while clawing at the sheets. After placing him back on the bed, I cradled him on top of me so his head was resting on my chest.

"I-It was s-so real." He sobbed into my neck.

"I know Dikkie. I know." I said softly as I rubbed circles on his back. His sobbs eventually died down to sniffles and then evened out to steady breathing. I stayed awake for a couple more minutes before my eyes started to droop and I was put in a deep sleep.

"I was positive I had sent you two to your seperate rooms." A voice said, causing me to hesitantly open my eyes, only to snap them shut from the blinding light, with a groan. When I tried again, it was a little easier and I managed to open them fully to see a stern Bruce and Alfred standing at the foot of the bed.

"He had a nightmare last night and I fell asleep before I could move." I said sleepily as I rubbed the sleepiness out of my eyes. I felt Dick stur from on top of me before falling off me and the bed to the floor, letting out a yelp in the process. I sniffled my giggles as he picked himself off the floor.

"Fine. We will let it slide this one time. Next time you both are going to be chained to your beds." Bruce said while crossing his arms over his chest.

"I would ask if you were joking but you're Batman.......so probably not." I said, getting out of bed and walking to my room. I got into my new Gotham Academy uniform and stared at myself in disgust. I mean seriously! If I bend over just a little bit, you can see my underwear. I huff and put on spandex underneath the skirt despite the the no non uniform clothing rule. I was not having my butt on display for all the perverts at high school. I pulled my hair into a ponytail and put on my black converse and fake glasses before heading down stairs to breakfast with my blue backpack slung across my shoulder.

"Being a rebel on your first day hmmm?" Dick said from behind me as I bit into my apple.

"See! If you can tell that I'm being a rebel, then that proves that these skirts are too short." I said turning around and taking another bite. Dick just rolled his eyes before grabbing a banana from the fruit basket.

"Come on, Alfred is waiting for us in the limo." He said, grabbing my arm and dragging me towards the front door.

"Ah.....Limo?" I questioned as Dick shoved me into the back seat.

"Yes. I tried pleading Bruce to not have us take this thing when I first came here but as you know, he is stubborn." Dick grumbled as we buckled up.

"He is not the only one Master Richard." Alfred quipped from the front seat.

"Oh yeah. Forgot that you can be quite stubborn as well." Dick said with a smirk.

"It runs in the Wayne household." He said with an eye roll.

"True." I said as I watched the buildings flying by. We stopped at a building slightly smaller than the manor.

"Overkill much?" I grumbled as we got out of the limo. Dick laughed at my annoyance before wishing Alfred a good day then closing the door. We walked side by sides to the front entrance with our hands intertwined. Just as we were about to go inside, I turned around to face the crowd of starring students.
