More Than Just A Prince

Out On The Town pt. 1

"So do you all not travel with any type of security?" Wally asked as he got in the passenger seat of Dick's car. The rest of Dick's siblings chose to ride in Jason's car since they all couldn't fit in one car.

"We are all martial arts trained," Dick said casually, "Plus most of us have weapons on us. So we don't worry about security that much."

"That's...really fucking cool," Wally said almost in awe, "Do you carry a weapon?"

"Yeah, as the eldest I basically have to," Dick replied, not looking over at Wally for longer than a second as he was driving, as he pulled out a blade from seemingly nowhere. He passed it over to the other prince.

"This is beautiful," Wally said as he twirled the blade in his hands, eyeing the black and blue hilt and blade cover. He slipped off the blade cover to look at the gleaming sharp blade.

"Thank you. It was given to me when I was young," Dick said with a smile and gently took the blade back as he pulled into the parking lot of the mall. "Now if paparazzi start harassing you just don't make eye contact and keep moving," Dick reminded as they stepped out of the car.

Luckily no paparazzi bothered them on their trip. Damian, Jason, and Cassandra had run off to the closest hunting shop, knowing there would be knives galore. Stephanie, while she was supposed to be getting to know Wally, sent Dick an apologetic look before following Tim into the closest book store. "Guess, I'm stuck with you," Wally replied, "Where to?"

"I guess I'll take you to my favorite place," Dick replied and dragged him through the mall by the arm until they reached a set of stairs Wally hadn't seen until they were right in front of them. They were almost hidden from plain view. They emerged on the roof of the mall and Dick pulled him to the edge of the building. "While the view isn't that wonderful, surrounded by skyscrapers in the city, it is definitely quiet up here," Dick said with a smile.

"It's so cool out," Wally replied as he sat beside Dick on the edge of the roof.

"Welcome to Gotham Kingdom. Where the sun rarely shines and it is always cold," Dick chuckled as he slid off his jacket.

Wally flinched as suddenly the other prince's jacket was draped over his shoulders. He looked over at Dick who was merely looking out at the buildings around them with a slight smile.

"You think you're smooth don't you," Wally chuckled.

"Maybe," Dick replied with a smirk as he shuffled a bit closer to Wally.

Wally took the clue and slid his arm around Dick's waist.

"You sure it's okay for us to be up here? Especially with your siblings wandering the mall?" Wally asked.

"Yeah, they'll text me when they're ready to head to the park and meet us by the cars," Dick replied.

"You know, we could head to the car," Wally suggested with an undertone Dick easily recognized.

"I think we can just stay up here," Dick responded and pulled Wally back away from the edge they were sitting on until they couldn't be seen from the ground outside.
