Blood's Ink [Tim Drake love story]

Chapter 31

~ Next day ~

       I feel the sun's warmth kissing my skin softly and something holding me securely in place. My hair is gently twirled and every once in a while a gentle kiss will be placed my face.

       I open my eyes slowly not wanting to leave the comfort of this moment. My head still rests against a thick chest and my arms wrapped around a lean waist. I glance up to see Tim smiling down at me with a small strand of my hair twirled gently around his finger.

"Good morning Beautiful" Tim whispers in a raspy voice placing a small kiss on my forehead but as he pulls away I tilt my head up and capture his lips in a kiss of my own

"Good morning Love" I whisper with a tired smile as I rest my head back against his chest

"We should get ready, Bruce will be expecting us soon," Tim said tiredly with a sigh

       I nod and sit up and stretch a bit then crawl over Tim, who was chuckling, to get out of bed. I start a pot of coffee and go to brush my hair and teeth as Tim pours us both bowls of cereal.

"There's an extra toothbrush in the bathroom for you to use, it's the blue one," I say sitting on the counter and eat the cereal with a smile

       When we were ready Tim and I headed out towards my car, not forgetting the suitcase, and headed towards Wayne Manor. Since I didn't know how to get there Tim drove. He sat shirtless in the driver's seat because I couldn't find him a shirt that would fit.

"I guess you'll be meeting my brothers a little earlier than we thought." Tim jokes with a smile as I chuckle

"Who knows what we'll be walking in on" Tim mumbles more to himself but it didn't go unnoticed by me

"So Dick is the cocky acrobat, Jason is the sarcastic hothead, and Damian is the animal-loving pain in the ass?" I question hoping I had gotten them all correct

"Yeah to sum it up. Dick is the oldest though Jason is the tallest and has a white streak of hair and Damian, well, he is half Arabian so there is that." Tim explained

"Don't worry I'm sure they'll love you" Tim encouraged with a smile holding my small soft hands in his large and slightly rough hands

       We pull up to a huge manor and Tim parks the car and we up the steps to the large front doors.

"You'll love Alfred, he's kind of like a grandfather figure to all of us," Tim explains with a smile as he talks about Alfred

       An old lean man opens the doors with a stern look. He was nicely dressed and had a natural sass, almost, to him.

"Master Timothy, I hope you aren't going to be making a habit of showing up without clothing, will you?" Alfred sassed with a hint of a genuine smile

"No, I couldn't find a shirt. Alfred this is my girlfriend Hayden Chesney. Hayden this is Alfred Pennyworth his a close friend to the family." Tim explains with a small and giving Alfred a small hug to which Alfred returns

"Hello, it's nice to meet you." I say shyly with a smile

"Master Bruce is excited to meet you, Hayden, we've all heard wonderful things about you," Alfred says with a small smirk as we notice Tim blushing madly

"Alright thank you, Alfred, come on Hayden I'll introduce you to Bruce who hopefully will be less embarrassing," Tim mumbled the last part as he dragged me towards an old grandfather clock

"Timmy, are you here already? I want to meet your girlfriend!" Someone called and a decently sized man in his 20's slid down the stair rails

'Dick Grayson, wow I haven't seen him since graduation. He hasn't changed a bit.' I think to myself watching as Dick walked towards us with a cocky smirk
