Chapter 2
Tim's PoV
One week earlier
When Damian barged into my room, I expected a fight. What I was not expecting was seeing him covered in glitter and blue feathers.
"Grayson and Brown must pay," he said with a scowl that somehow reminded me of a cat.
"So why'd you come to me."
"I am aware they have pranked you as well."
"Yeah, of course they have."
"Let's team up and get them back." I considered the offer. On one hand, Damian could turn on me at any moment, but, on the other hand, this could be my chance to get back at Dick and Steph.
"...why not?"
Now
Damian and I walked down the stairs because of the sudden commotion while planning a particularly nasty prank for Dick. When we got about halfway down, we were shocked to see Jason talking to Alfred and Dick, but the shock quickly wore off and changed to planning as Damian and I looked at each other, evil smiles decorating our faces. Jason was defiantly going to get it.
"Why are the Replacement and Demon Spawn getting along?" Jason asked causing Damian and I to send him glares.
"We've decided not to question it," Steph replied.
Dick smiled, "As long as they're getting along-"
"-we won't stop them," Babs finished, earning a nod of agreement from Cass.
Bruce walked in with a small smile as he said, "Though they won't tell us what they're working on." Damian and I simply smiled and shrugged as Stephanie glared at us for not letting her in on the secret.
"Hey, Bruce," Jason said causing tension to fill the room.
"Jason," Bruce greeted with a forced smile, "it's good to see you." They stared at each other for what felt like hours until he shocked everyone in the room by pulling Jason into a hug. Alfred, Dick, and Babs looked really happy, obviously glad the two were finally working out their issues.
"Come then," Alfred said with a smile, "dinner isn't going to eat itself." We all laughed at something stupid that Dick said on the way to the kitchen. Once we were all seated, Alfred brought out dinner before taking his place at the table. We ate in relative silence (at least as silent as we could get with Steph and Dick constantly telling jokes) until the end of dinner. Dick stood up and smiled down at Babs, and I noticed Bruce and Alfred smiling brightly.
Dick smiled at Barbara before looking back at us and announcing, "We're engaged." This caused quiet a bit of noise from the excited family, we'd been waiting for this for quite awhile.
"Let us see the ring," Steph demanded. Barbara happily complied, showing a smiling Steph and an awed Cass her ring.
"Finally," Jason said giving the two a hug.
"I'm really happy for you two," I said as I stood up. "Congrats."
"Thanks, Timmy," Dick said. I was about to sit down when Dick and Babs smiled and sandwiched me in a hug.
"Your names will become confusing," Damian stated.
"I guess you'll just have to resort to using first names," Babs stated with a smile.
"No." Damian finally smiled at the two. "I do approve of the pairing. You two are compatible for each other."
"Aww, thanks, Little D," Dick said as he pulled Damian into a hug.
"Unhand me, Grayson!" Dick just laughed at him as Babs pulled Jason and I into the hug. Steph and Cass soon joined in on the hug.
"Bruce, Alfred, come on and join us," Barbara called. Bruce and Alfred came over and joined in on the group hug.
"This was nice and all," Damian said sarcastically, "but you can get off now." When no one made a move to let go (mainly because Jason and Damian were too stuck to move) Damian became irritated. "Seriously, get off." No one moved, so Damian sat in silent irritation, and that was the day before Christmas Eve.
