The Soulmates Who Aren't Soulmates

Chapter 3

Dick looked at the celling in the room he and Jason shared. He really don't know what to think. Day ago Dick and Jason found out that there's a multiverse, another version of them, soulmates and that Tim was their soulmate plus there's a universe without Tim, which sounds pretty bad, because Timmy is one of the best things in Dick's life.

And the other versions of them care for Tim, they hugged him the second they saw him, they protect him, they stole Dick's phone to check in on Tim and now they're probably at his place. Dick didn't even knew that Tim have a place in Gotham.

He wonders when was the last time he even talked to Tim? Not to red robin, but Tim. He can't remember when. God he was so busy that he didn't even had time to call Tim.

Tim.. Tim who is his soulmate somewhere. His and Jay's soulmate. He really don't know how to react to that.

He loves Tim, of course, but is it the same way he loves Jason? He always felt something through Jason and Tim, but is ot the same thing? And how would Jason react to that? He and Tim don't have the best relationship but Dick also knows that Jason going to Tim when he needs someone to listen to him. He knows Jason starting to care even though he don't stop call him 'replacement' or 'pretender'. Jason cares about Tim, and maybe he feels the way Dick feeling through Tim too?

And if not and Dick will make him mad and Jason will go after Tim? No, he can't let that happen. He shakes his head and tries to figure out what he's feelings to Tim means to him.

"You know, it's your free day and it's not even nine, why are you awake?" Jason's voice was hoarse from sleep. "Can't sleep"

He felt Jason shift next to him so he rolled to his side, his eyes meeting a beautiful blue - green eyes, he fought the urge to say "Hey handsome" and just smiled.

"Why?"

'Because I can't get Tim out of my mind' said a little voice in his head, "Thinking"

"Then stop, you need to sleep" Jason said and put his hand on Dick's eyes, making the oldest giggle.

And then Dick's phone started to ring, making Jason grunted and Dick smile at how cute he is.

Dick rolled to his phone and his heart beat a little faster at the contact name.

"Tim?"

"Nope, just your doppelganger"

"Other me, what you doing with Tim's phone?"

"Timmy working on sending me and Jayjay home, wanted to ask if you two can meet Jay and I before we will have to go"
Jason shocked his head 'no' as Dick said "Yes"

***

"You know what?" Jason said as they waited to other them, behind a café "If we had a pancakes I wouldn't consider hating you right now"

"We can't be with them at the café and you know it"

"Yup other me, it'll get us too much attention" said other Jason as he and Dick grinned at them from the roof of the café.

"Hey umm.. Dick" said this universe Dick, "What you wanted to talk about?"

"About baby bird" other Jason crossed his legs, he smiled at them but the smile didn't reached his eyes. His eyes looked so, so sirius.

"What about the replacement?"

"That. Exactly that."

This universe Jason looked confused, he gets the fact that Tim is his soulmate somewhere in the multiverse, and yes, he does like the kid, but he's with Dick (he really don't know how he will react to that. Like: "Hey Dick, I love you but I also love Tim the same way" it's idiotic). And he's really good at pushing people away, plus after everything he had done to the boy.. Tim won't even think about him like a lover.

"How you call him, how you treat him. You do realize he's not a replacement or a trash, right?"

This universe Jason blinked. 
Once.
Twice.
Slowly letting the words sink in, trying to understand, why other him like this universe Tim so much.

"Of course we know that, Tim is fine with it" Dick's voice brake the silence, and Jason know that he said the wrong thing, because really? Even Jason not fine with it, but, you know, it really hard to stop bad habits.

Other Jason looked like he's ready to pull out a gun, but other Dick hand was in his, relaxing him. "Did you ever considered to ask Tim if he is fine with that or you just decided that yourself?" Dick never thought that he could hear someone talking with so much venom in his voice that he couldn't hear his real voice, and that's exactly what other him just did. There was so much venom in his voice that Jason felt the need to tangel his fingers with Dick's.

"If Tim wasn't fine with it he would have said so" Dick is sure about that. Tim can always say if it not fine with him, he can always come to Dick and talk to him.

"Is that so?" Other Jason jumped down from the café roof, and stand right in front of them.

"Yes. Tim know he can talk to me"

Other Jason huffed a laugh, "You sure about that? When was the last time he came to talk with you?"

Dick mind tried to remember when that was, it wasn't so long ago, Dick took Damian to watch a movie, and Tim wanted to talk about something...

"It was when I took Dami to watch a movie, so I couldn't exactly but I probably called after that to talk with him.. I don't remember exactly what happened later"

"Maybe you should check your history call, just to make sure" Other Dick suggested and with that he and Jason were gone.

***

"Four months ago!" Dick yelled again as he went in circles right in front of Jason, making his head fuzzy.

"I called him fout months ago! And only because of a mission! MISSION!!"

Jason really hated other Dick right now, he's the reason his headcheese will become migraine.

"Annnnd, not only I didn't called Tim back after I took Dami to the movie, it was also Tim's birthday and he bought the tickets so he will come with me!" Dick's voice told Jason that Dick was clearly next to a brake down. But can he blame him? Even Jason remembered to say 'Birthday replacement' that day, and Dick, who considered himself as Tim's safe haven, didn't even *remembered* it was this day.. Dick felt like he is the worst person on earth.

"What can I do to fix it?"
