"Well, I'll be. Never thought I'd see the day I'd see you nervous," Dick chuckled. He was doing his eyeliner in the mirror and caught his boyfriend pacing behind him.  

"I'm not nervous," David responded sharply. He was wearing his best suit. It was the first suit Dick ever bought him. It was a navy blue piece and he'd paired it with a blue tie, a white shirt, and black dress shoes. An outfit clearly put together by the more fashion-savvy of the pair. "Oh my bad, you must be doing your pacing practice," Dick said sarcastically. He smirked to himself when he saw the frustration in the other's face. David folded his arms unhappily and perched himself on the bed. "It's just my family," he added.

"Your family is your old team, the founding members of the Justice League and every apprentice Batman has had," the ginger complained. "That's at least seventeen people."

"Don't forget Iris and Selina they'll be there too. Besides you've already met the family of one Leaguer and my family," Dick pointed out.

"I met your family when you were going to kill yourself during a genocide of Bludhaven that's hardly anything like what we're doing tonight."

"Depends how it goes." He was shot a glare which only made him chuckle. He finished up his eyeliner and walked over to his boyfriend, sitting himself down on his lap and cupping his face. "You're nervous over nothing. If anyone says anything we can just dip and say we had an emergency," Dick offered. As much as it was funny to see the hitman more nervous than a kid was stage fright on nativity night, it was kind of off-putting. He must really be freaking out and for arguably good reason. Not everyone was into Dick's new life - Bruce namely - and David might be blamed for encouraging his new behavior. If he was honest, Dick was nervous too. He'd hardly seen most of them since the lifestyle change. In all fairness, it was because he couldn't use the Zetatubes and was incredibly busy running his gang. He hoped things wouldn't be too awkward and they could be how things used to but...who really knew. "We already know Barry, Jay and Iris approve of you and right now they're the only ones that matter," he added.

"What about Bruce? He is kind of your dad."

"If I cared about his approval, I wouldn't be the most beloved criminal in Bludhaven and Gotham." David tutted, 

"One magazine said that."

"And are they wrong? No. So buck up buttercup, we're setting off in ten." He kissed David on the cheek and got up. 

"Then we should change your bandages now," the hitman stated, gaining a groan. 

"You're the one who took my bullet." He had a point. The bullet was for the hitman whilst he was helping a fallen gang member and Dick had jumped in the way. Of course, he got hell for it afterward. "I didn't think it would be this much of a hassle. Otherwise, I would've just let you get shot," he joked.

"If that happened then who would you boss around?" Dick thought to himself with a devious look.

"I'm sure there are plenty of men who'd just love to be with me. I could name quite a few just off the top of my head. They're good looking lads as well."

"Jokes over, we're not playing hypotheticals anymore," David stated, suddenly serious.

"Nervous and jealous - love it."



Barry greeted everyone and gathered them in the living room. He'd purposely told them to show up earlier than Dick so he could lay down some ground rules. "I know it's difficult for some of you to understand and come to terms with Dick's massive lifestyle change," he announced, trying his best to look at you know who. "But he's still just as kind as he was when he was a hero and we are his family so we should be at least civil with him. That includes not picking fights about the meaning of justice or his boyfriend who most of you will be meeting properly for the first time tonight." Jason raised his hand. "Yes there is alcohol in the house and no you can't have more than three glasses of wine. I don't want a drunken brawl ruining the china." He frowned, accepting that he was going to have to grin and bear tonight. "Other than that, have fun." He turned on some music and the heroes began socializing, talking about their latest work. Barry helped Iris put out the rest of the snacks and got himself his first glass of wine. He'd need it if he was going to survive tonight. He had an idea on who would stir up trouble but he hoped they could at least play happy families for a couple of hours. There was a knock on the door and sped over to open it. He was greeted by Dick and David, the forenamed man smiling brightly at him and carrying a bottle of wine he'd only seen the richest of the rich drink. "I thought we'd bring a little present for having us," Dick said, handing him the wine.
