Mending Hearts

There will be smut in this chapter. 

4 Days Later. 7:00 pm

It had been 4 days since Jack was rescued. Jack had been sleeping soundly in the medical bay since that day, to catch up and regather his strength. It's been a long while since he had slept properly, he also couldn't move properly for 3 days so Alfred set him up so he could rest comfortably in the medical bay. He enjoyed the serenity that surrounded him. Jack kept sleeping throughout the 4 days, only waking up when Alfred brought him meals. Damian had fully rested after the battle. He had been trying to contact Jon for the past few days to apologize, but he gets no response from him. It broke him to his core. He spent his time in the watchtower ignoring everyone, and silently crying to himself to sleep. He had fully recovered now, and could properly come home.

"Recognised. Robin, Z-0-9." The zeta tube announced. Jack was still sleeping soundly, surprisingly. Damian emerged from the bright light. As he walked through the cave, he found Jack lying on the medical bed. He walked over to him and stood by his bedside.

"Jack." Damian said softly, his voice was filled with pain. "I-I'm sorry." He said as he resisted his tears. "Jon... and I fought..." He said. He stood up. "And I'm afraid he's going to leave me..." Damian's voice broke. "And it's my fault..." Tears finally escaped his eyes followed by his fists meeting the wall. He was frustrated, he blamed himself for what's happening. He kept pounding his fists on the wall. Damian grunted in pain as he punched, thinking about how he broke Jon's heart. Jack was woken up, he looked in horror as he saw his best friend harming himself. Damian's fists began to bleed. "It's my fault." He kept saying as he bled further from punching the rock walls of the cave. Jack grabbed his arm, stopping him.

"Damian." Jack glared at him. "What the fuck are you doing?!"

"Jack. I-I..." Damian looked at him, his knuckles were bleeding. Damian felt defeated, without hope and love. Jack quickly stood up and hugged him.

"Come here..." Jack said as Damian sobbed loudly on his shoulder. "Why would you do that?" he asked.

"It's my fault..." Damian whimpered.

"Why would you push him away?." Jack asked. "Come on, bud..."

"I'm sorry..."

"He's your boyfriend. He loves you to death. Let him in..."

"I'm going to lose Jon..." Damian sobbed, his heart was already shattered. It broke even further, shattering into a million pieces.

"No you won't..." Jack reassured him. "Talk to him, let him in. Give him your complete trust."

"I know." Damian said. "But he won't even talk to me..."

"He'll talk to me..." Jack replied. "Come on, let's get you wrapped up first. I can't believe you did that..." He was extremely worried for Damian.

"I'm sorry..." Damian apologized. Jack made Damian sit on the bed he was lying on. He brought bandages and proceeded to wrap it around Damian's fists.

"Don't do that again." Jack said. Damian simply nodded as he sobbed silently. Damian winced in pain as Jack wrapped the bandage a bit too tight. "Did that hurt?" Jack teased, he tried to lighten up the mood a little.

"TT. No." Damian said, annoyed. Jack finished bandaging Damian's fists. Damian wiped his tears away as he ceased crying.

"I'll text him... okay?" Jack said. "Then you talk to him." Damian nodded, he was silent the whole time. Jack stood up and went to get something. He came back, after changing his clothes and having his boom tube device that he had left in the Batcave.
