Agapanthus

Meaning: Undying love or new birth

It was 6 o'clock in the morning when he got the call that had him speeding over to the hospital.

When he got to the hospital there was a kind nurse who led him to the birthing center. Bruce was sitting in the side chair holding Zatanna's hand. Selina was standing by her bedside, rocking a little miracle in her arms. They both turned towards him when he entered through the door.

Selina smiled and sashayed over from the new mother's side to pass the baby over to Dick. Bruce stood up as well and patted him on the back before he and Selina left the hospital room.

The baby girl cooed in his arms, making him look down. The baby's eyes had opened and she was staring up at him. Her chubby little hands reached out for him.

"She's beautiful," he whispered.

"She is," Zatanna agreed as she reached over and rubbed the baby's chubby cheek gently. She looked worn out. There were small beads of sweat on her forehead and her skin was pale. Her movements were sluggish too. "That's why we have to protect her."

"We will. How are you?" He interlocked his hand with hers that was now resting on their baby girl's cheek.

"Get some rest, Tanna. We'll be right here."

She nodded and her eye slowly closed and she slumped back into the bed. The heart monitor beside her told him that she was only sleeping.

He settled into the chair, where Bruce had originally sat, with their child in his arms. A nurse came in shortly after Zatanna fell asleep and asked if they wanted her to take the baby back to the nursery. He refused. He wanted to spend a little more time with his child in his arms, his little birdy.

Hope you enjoy the new series as much as you did the first :)
