The Soulmates Who Aren't Soulmates

Chapter 1

The cold air hit Tim in the face.
He sat on the roof of his building since the early noon hours.
He watched the sun moving in the sky and Gotham getting darker and darker.
He felt the sun light on his form, warming him a bit befor it was leaving him to the icy cold that came with freezing air.

Tim don't know how much time he set there, it felt like he just blinked and from the early noon he was moved to the late night.

His headphones were screaming songs in his hears.
He likes it like that.

The city looked amazing from up there, the weather was perfect for him, and the music shut down every little noise that was unwanted for him.

It was one of those nights that you could actually see the distended stars in the black - blue night sky.

He didn't let himself sink in thoughts, he just looked at the little natural that surrounds him.

And God, he loves and appreciate every second of it.

Because who want to think about the fact that the people who were supposed to be his family, completely forgetting him?

No one.

And Tim won't think about it. No. Not even for a second.

He won't think about how they all getting together without him.
Because he knew from the first second that he's just the stand in.
He came to help batman get better. That's all.

And now they're happy family. Without him. And that's okay, it really is. And because it's okay he isn't going to think about it.

'It's fine. It's fine. It's fine.' he just need to remember that.
Because it is. It is fine. 'It's fine. It's fine. It's fine.'
He don't need to be loved by them. Just play his part. 'It's fine. It's fine. It's fine.'
He always love without love in return. 'It's fine. It's fine. It's fine.'
It's always fine because he don't know what would happen if he said otherwise. Maybe he isn't fine. Or maybe he is. He wants to be fine. He believes it. He's fine.

Tim watched a bird that he couldn't regonized because of the darkness settle down on a electric pole.

Maybe the bird didn't had family as well.
He didn't knew why but it makes him smile a bit.

He looked next to him, at his thermos, which was half full with hot coffee, because thermos and all that.

Tim opened the thermos slowly, he didn't exactly knew why but he did.

The long sip of coffee was exactly what he needs right now.

He smiles softly at the bird and takes another slip.

Suddenly the song he just heard stopped (Castle Of Glass by Linkin Park, because this song is just fucking amazing) so he looked at his phone expect to see that his phone run out of battery, but apparently it was a call, from no other than Dick.
'great, just great'

He just wanted a quiet day before going back to the titans tower. Is it too much to ask for?

Plus Dick didn't knew he was in Gotham, and they didn't talked in two years, so why the hell is he calling?
