Just gunna let you know I cried writing this chapter.
Making faces at Grace I watched as she giggled hysterically. She copied a few making me laugh as well. Across the room Blake was being held by Conner who was bouncing and tossing him into the air, little squeals of delight leaving his lips. Megan levitated him around the room picking up Grace making them slowly drift around the room with me watching for any signs that they might somehow drop. Their large gummy smiles and giggle made me grin. A beep came to my ear as did everyone else's signaling someone was calling into the com link. Megan placed the kids back on the floor next to the toys where they sat on large pillows.
"Nightwing to cave come in!" A soft voice over the com link came in making me hold my ear.
"We hear you, what going on,"
"Tweety," he sounded relieved to hear my voice when I spoke. But there was something else there, an undertone of pain maybe.
At the moment Nightwing was patrolling bludhaven while I was at the cave with the kids and the rest of the team.
"Nightwing what's going on?" I repeated more forcefully standing up now to pace away from everyone else who could hear what we were saying through their own com.
"I was shot...I can't move baby," his voice was a whisper on the other end. "I'm not sure I'm going to make it out of this one, tweety bird,"
"Tell me where you are!" I shouted anxiety and fear pumping in my veins.
"It doesn't matter I'll be dead by the time you get here, I just called to tell you how much I love you, how much I love you and our kids. Tell them how cool of a dad I would have been...that I loved them so much. That I loved their mother more then life itself," he started to get chocked up at the end of his speech. Coughs left his lips as he let a gasp of pain out.
"Dick no!" I yelled tears welling in my eyes. "I can come and save you just hold on," I said pitifully into the link. "Please just tell me here you are,"
"There's nothing left to save," he whispered fading quickly. "I just want you to know that I died knowing that no one has ever loved anyone as much as I loved you. That you turned my life into the greatest adventure and I'm sorry that I can't be there for the rest of your beautiful life. I love you so much Charlotte,"
"Please," I whispered brokenly but the com cut out signaling static. "No!" I screamed a sobs shock me making collapse to the ground the rest of the team coming in. They knew now too. "No! No! No!" I cried as Conner lifted me to his chest his tears hitting my head.
"He's dead," I sobbed starting to hyperventilate. More tears ran down my fac-
A gasp left my lips as I jolted up in bed sobs still leaving my dry lips. I was shaking as I cried into my hands. "Dick," I said through the shaky breaths tears still poring down my face. Stirring in his sleep he sat up like a bolt and took me in his arms.
"Baby, shh what's wrong? What happened?" He said quickly making me sob more when I heard his voice.
That dream was so real. To real.
"You died, I had a dream and you died and left me behind. You wouldn't even give me the chance to save you because you knew you were dead,"
"Hey hey, it's just a dream. Ok? None of that was real so no more tears," wiping the last few stray tears on my face away be looked at me as little hiccups left my mouth.
"It was so real, it was terrible," I said clinging to him as he kissed my head softly.
"I know, trust me I know," he said a grim sound to his voice. Of course he knew, he had thought id died before and for three years he had the same belief. "Feels like your hearts being ripped out of your chest and then shot by a bazooka,"
"Pretty much," I muttered as he slowly laid us down.
"I can't promise I won't die but I can promise that if I was about to I would make sure to give you a chance to save me," he said with a small smile.
"That's so reassuring," I said sarcastically with a laugh but quieted down when I heard one of the twins shift in their cribs. "Just don't die ok," I said looking into his blue eyes.
"As long as your still here, I wouldn't mind sticking around," he joked halfheartedly. Leaning over he kissed my lips softly. "Same goes for you,"
A real smile came to my lips as I snuggled into his chest his arms protectively wrapped around me as he hummed. I slowly drifted off to sleep as he pet a hand through my hair and kissed my forehead.
"I love you so much," I heard him whisper when I fell into the darkness of sleep.
