We all start walking to the train tracks. "There is a train going just outside of Gotham and then coming back in, it leaves in thirty minutes" Nolan said swiping through his phone. "Perfect, then we can get some drinks and shit" Sam said excitedly. Sam runs ahead of us and starts to go to a convenience store. I pull a five dollar bill out of my pocket and walk up to the store. I feel someone touching my hand, and look to my right and see Kam trying to hold my hand. I enter-twine our fingers together. Then, she runs ahead to the store. I let her drag me there too.

Once we get in the store, I go and grab myself a monster. Kam grabs a pink monster, while i get the original. We then walk up to the cash register and I sneak a pack of cigarettes in my pocket. Then, I see Kamilah sneaking a lighter into her shirt. She looks up and winks at me. I laugh at her antics and go and pay for me and Kamilah's monster. "Thanks for the monster Damian" Kam says taking the monster from my hand. "Hey, anything for my best friend" I laugh while walking out of the store with her.

We meet Evelyn, Sam and Nolan outside the store and continue our treck. We babble about nothing in particular. Then, I hear a flash of a camera. My head immediately snaps behind me, but i don't see anything. I look all around me but I can't see anything. "Damian, you good man?" Sam ask, holding his arms out as if I am going to pass out. "Did you hear that?" I ask, while still looking around. "Hear what?" Nolan questions. "A click, like a photo being taken" I grab my phone to see if I got a text or something. "I didn't hear anything" Evelyn says, everyone else murmured agreements. "Maybe you imagined it" Kam says, holding my hand a little tighter. "TT, I don't imagine" I start to walk again.

We keep walking, but I continue to look around. "Hey, calm down. It was probably just someone taking a selfie" Kam says, while reaching for her phone. "Speaking of selfies" She snaps a photo of me and her and some more of the roads of Gotham. "Those are nice" I say. I scroll through some of the photos. "Thanks, I taken some photos from the last couple of times we have hung out" She sipped her drink. "I didn't even notice" I say. "Im an assassin, of course you didn't" she smirks.

we walk up to the train tracks, and see that there is a man selling tickets at the front. "are we buying tickets?" Evelyn asks. "lets hop the fence and then just go on the back" I lead them to the fence and hop over it easily. My Robin training has come in handy. Kam hops over and runs up to me. She wraps her arm around my waste and half-hugs me. I put my arm around her shoulder and wait for the rest of them to come.

Evelyn come up to us and waits for the boys. "Look at the lights over there" Evelyn points to the lights by the train. Kam grabs her hand and says "lets go take photos". The girls run off while I wait for Nolan and Sam. "You guys are dating" Sam says while picking up his drink. I blush while looking at the ground, "I think I am going to ask her to be my girlfriend". Nolan and Sam smile like children on Christmas day. "Thats awesome, D!" Sam says, coming and putting a hand on my shoulder. He was three or so inches taller than me. "I knew you guys would get together" Nolan says, hitting me with his arm. "You say that anything happens". We all laugh and start to walk over to the girls. They are still taking photos. "Hey Kamilah, can we talk?" I ask her. "of course, whats up" She says as we walk away from the group.

"Well I have something I wanted to ask you" I grab her hand and look in her light brown eyes. "I like you a lot Kamilah, and I was wondering if you wanted to be my girlfriend". She smiles, And reaches up to cup my cheek. "of course" she whispers and stands on her toes. Our lips meet and everything else seems to just disappear. I wrap my arm around her waist and kiss her back. When we break up, she leans her head on my shoulder. I can feel her smile, and I let out a little laugh. Then, we hear some claps and cheer. We look over to see Nolan, Evelyn, and Sam clapping. I blush a bright red and look away. Kamilah laughs at them, and takes my hand again. "If you love birds are done, we should get on the train"
