They didn't
stay for a large breakfast like they would've had on the manor. Y/n put away the borrowed Starling suit as Dick was on the phone again with Bruce Wayne. She could hear them arguing but tuned decided to tune them out.

Staring at the costume, she wondered if it would be a recurring thing, slipping into the suit. She was met by Dick who came into the compartment, sighing.

"We're going to land soon, we better buckle up." He wrapped his arm around her and placing a hand on her shoulder. Y/n nodded, making her way back into the cockpit of the jet. She strapped in watching Dick take his seat as well.

"The gala is tomorrow." Dick reminded her, which made her eyes widen, "Bruce says Lex accepted the invitation but there's one catch." He ran a hand through his hair while she bit her lip, waiting for Dick to explain the catch but clearly he needed a bit of a shove.

"What is it?" She asked, leaning forward.

"Oh, yeah. The theme for the gala is masquerade."  He rubbed his forehead, frustrated, "which means everyone will be wearing a mask." Now it was y/n's turn to reassure Dick.

"I think we'll be able to spot his bald head anywhere." She giggled, looking at the sky, they were over Gotham now and were getting closer to the Manor. The plane slowly started to descend as y/n leaned back into the chair. Dick seemed to be a bit more at ease but the possibility of Lex Luthor bringing his 'top secret weapon' to the event was nothing to be calm about.

"You're right." He chuckled, the Bat-Jet flying through a secret entrance in the waterfall. Landing, they could see The Batman standing there, awaiting their return.

"Time to face the bat." Dick gulped, opening the door. He seemed more nervous about answering to Bruce than anything else. The two walked out together.

"The two of you are completely reckless." He stated, growling almost. Y/n didn't say anything, she kept her lips shut, hoping Dick would respond.

"We were following up with The Titans, Lex might be a greater threat then we first anticipated." He narrowed his eyes, crossing his arms. Bruce didn't say anything, walking away, his cape dragging against the floor. Y/n turned to Dick, looking up at him with lovers eyes.

Dick was clearly bothered by Bruce's words, she placed a hand on the outer edge of his bicep, tapping him back into reality. 

"Hey, quit worrying, we did a good job. We're clearly gonna catch Lex." She smiled as she started walking to the elevator, even though it was earlier in the day, she had no energy to do anything.

Dick ran behind her, going up with her. While they stood side by side in the elevator. Y/n gave a half smile, leaning into him a little more. Dick huffed out a laugh and as the doors shut closed he leaped into action.

Placing his hands on her waist, he kissed her. Every moment, there was a giddy feeling inside their stomachs. She pulled away, they were already in the manor. Y/n wiped her lips slyly, rushing to her room to take a shower.

As she entered her room, a box lay on the bed. It was circular, and wrapped with a red bow. She raised an eyebrow walking over to it hesitantly. There was a tiny card attached and y/n read it out loud.

"Hope this fits. Bruce." She laughed to herself, opening the box, revealing a black dress for the gala the next night, along with a masquerade mask to fit the theme. Y/n smiled to herself, realizing she was making progress, at least the hoped.

The shower water began running while y/n undressed, ready to wash away the grim of the week.
