     Aaliyah, you better not read this without calling me first XD I love to watch your reaction to these. Anyway, I'm just gonna let you guys keep reading.


     He pulled out his phone to see the caller ID: 'Bruce Wayne'.

     "Speaking of the bat himself..."


      "Dick..." said the bat on the other line. Raven stood there snickering to herself, still thinking about how funny his name is. "You're needed in Gotham as soon as possible. I need you to pack your things for a one night stay at the manor." Bruce said emotionless. "I'm on my way, Bruce," Robin said back. "Good to hear," Bruce replied.

   "Here comes the nightmares..." Raven said irritated at the fact that she has to part with the guy she just started dating last night. "I can FaceTime you when you go to bed?" "It won't be the same but we can give it a shot," Raven said. "Do you mind making me a portal to Gotham?" "Okay," she said to Robin.   

   Robin packed his things and told the team he was going to be gone for the day in Gotham. Robin and Raven walked into the hallway so they could be alone and she gave him a big hug. The hug was better than the hug in 'The End Pt 3' after Raven defeated Trigon.

  During the hug, she sighed and whispered "Don't have too much fun, Boy Blunder." into his ear. Then she opened the portal as he said "Don't worry, Gotham's not much fun. That's part of the reason why I left." Robin proceeded to walk through the portal with his head held high and his heart on sleeve. 

                                           ~In Gotham...~

    Robin stepped through the portal right in front of his adoptive father. "Hello, master Richard." said the butler named Alfred (who I adore).  Alfred took his bag to his room. "Bruce, before you say anything...  actually, you probably already know what I'm gonna say, don't you?" he chirped (pun intended XD). "That you have gotten yourself a girlfriend, Dick?" "Actually, yeah. Now is the part where you tell me it's dangerous and I made a terrible mist-". He was cut off by Bruce. "

   "I'm not mad at you, Dick. You're an adult now, I'm quite sure you can handle it... now. Besides, I know she needs you. And I'm a bit sure you need her. I know I'm a stalker Dick, but I know that you make sure she doesn't have nightmares anymore, and she helps you not have insomnia. You two now both sleep peacefully, and that gives you a lot of energy for battle."

  "Thanks, Bruce. Wait what do you mean 'now' ?" "That doesn't matter now," Bruce said. "I'm very proud of you," he added. "Thanks, again. I can't believe she's my girlfriend!" "I can't believe you even got a girlfriend..." Damien, Bruce's son, rudely added after eavesdropping. "Wow, you really are a Wayne." "WHAT DOES THAT MEAN?" Damien asked, offended. "Like father, like son. You both love to spy and eavesdrop." Dick replied. "Don't lie, Dick, you do it to criminals all the time!" Bruce snapped. "Whatever... why was I called here exactly?" Dick asked annoyed.

   "I was hoping you could bring your girlfriend to dinner... I want to meet her." Bruce said with a smirk, intrigued to hear Dick's reply. "I'll call her," he said. He walked out of the room a few seconds before he heard Bruce yell: "and tell her to bring clothes for a one night stay!" Dick pulled out his phone and dialed Raven's number. He invited her to Wayne Manor for the night.

   She showed up 30 seconds later with an anxious look on her face. They went to dinner and they talked and talked for a little over an hour. They had the best crab legs with butter. Raven got up to take her dish to the sink and wash it there and then. "Miss Roth, I could have taken your plate and washed it for you," Alfred said with a straight face. "Not to be impolite, but I can take care of this on my own. Robin was kind of nervous to what the bat might say to that comment, but Bruce and Alfred just laughed. "Hehehe. An independent woman you got there, Grayson. Well done." Dick was relieved that Bruce of Alfred hadn't taken offense to the comment.

   Damien just slumped down farther in his chair with his lack of attention whispering to himself: "Perfect waste of a butler if you ask me..." Clearly Bruce heard and mouthed "Knock it off." to his son. Batman went to show his first Robin the new high tech security he got. Raven, looking around the mansion, walking into the living room to see Damien playing the same combat game they had in the tower. She became pretty good at that game, so she asked Damien if she could play. 

   Damien just shrugged and said: "I guess, but be warned. You can't beat me, it's impossible... unless you're my dad..." muttering the last part under his breath so it was inaudible. Raven got the game set up and battle Damien, playing in multiplayer mode. Bruce and Dick snuck in to watch Raven whooping his a** in the combat game. When it ended, the two started clapping, surprising the other two. Raven was proud of herself and Damien's jaw dropped to the ground. He had never gotten that kind of applause before. Then he looked back at the screen to see that Raven had beaten the previous set high score. 

   Damien came out to the common room Dick and Raven were. "Father has sent me to ask if either of you wanted any cake that Alfred made the other day." Raven and Robin were full at the moment because they don't usually eat such large meals at the tower, so they passed up the opportunity. A bit later they decided to watch a movie on the couch and snuggle wearing pajamas.
