New Chances - (Nightwing x OC)

Chapter 5

Wednesday Night - 11.30 pm

POV NIGHTWING 

She had an attitude. No doubt about that. One that seemed to anger Bruce. He grappled up to the roof. He often doesn't announce these things. It was something I had gotten used to in my Robin days. I quickly followed behind him, as he continued to move along each rooftop. We usually has a system as to how we patrolled through Gotham. Moving in this direction wasn't apart of it. 

"Batman. Where are we going?"

No reply. He was definitely pissed off. 

"Batman?"

Oh screw it!

"Bruce!" 

That made him stop. "I can tell you're upset about the way she spoke and what she said bu-"

"I have a presentation to prepare for tomorrow. It would be wise for you to prepare. Uniform too." 

With that he left, swinging off into the night. I don't know if he used the presentation as an excuse to not talk about Kayla, or if he was actually going home. I knew better than to edge Bruce, especially when he was already pissed off. I made my way back toward the manor. The presentation tomorrow would be held at Shore Dock Collage.

Thursday 8.30

POV KAYLA

Everyone was buzzing in the halls at school. I had no clue as to what was going on. I pulled Miranda over to the side.

"Morning. What the hell is going on?" 

"You don't remember! Today's the day the Bruce Wayne and his dashing young ward come to visit!" 

"Great." This was just great. I'd have to deal with young boy-crazy girls. Whenever the young Wayne ward was out, girls would practically fall over him. The guys try to impress all the girls just to get the attention back on them. Like, its a circle of teenage drama. "Why, again?"

"Jesus Kayla! Bruce Wayne and his ward are offering a scholarship for one person to attend Gotham Academy, for the rest of their high school life!"

"Oh. Yay?" It was great of billionaire Bruce Wayne to do this, but just think. Most of us are almost done with High School, so why would we bother changing? All of a sudden a yank on my arm pulled me out of my thoughts.

"Yes yay! Now come on we're all gathering in the hall, for the announcement!"

xXx

We all sat in our chairs. Majority of us eager to hear what Mr. Wayne had to say. I zoned out halfway between the introduction that the principal was giving. It was basically the same every time we had someone important come visit. Just a basic biography, and a heads up as to what they were going to be talking to us about. However our principal had really tried their best to impress Mr. Wayne. 

"Without more ado. Here is Mr. Wayne."

The thunderous clapping brought me back out of my daze. He raised is hand to silence the crowd. Much like a God. 

"Thank you. As you know, I'm here today to announce that I will be offering a Gotham Academy Scholarship to one lucky student. The scholarship will last until the completion of your high schooling, and will be paid for, before commencement." 

I took a quick look at everyone around the hall. Each face was painted with a look of awe. 

"Over the next week, my ward and I will be observing you in your classes and co-curricular activities, as a way of assessing you, and to help us decide. Now, I'll invite Richard to speak to you about the opportunities that Gotham Academy will offer to you." 

More thunderous clapping occurred as the billionaire returned to his seat. As he went to sit down his ward approached the lecturn. He looked down, as if he was re-arranging his notes. His head then shot up quickly. His ocean like eyes starring out to the back of the hall. He scanned the crowd as if he was looking for someone. 

For some reason, his eyes stopped on me.
