Dick:15
Jason:13 1/2

It didn't begin suddenly, but over time it became very noticeable to everyone in The Wayne Manor.

Dick, the happy, energetic, sweet person was now silent, nonactive and kept mostly to himself.
Jason was the first to notice the changes in his big brother. He didn't say anything, he just sat back and watched until he couldn't take it anymore, and had to find out what was up with Dick.
------------------

Jason stood across the hall, his back against the wall of lockers. His arms were across his chest as he waited for his big brother to exit the classroom.

It was lunch time and everyone was in the hallway shattering about. Jason knew Dick's class ended about 10 minutes ago but he was the only one who didn't come out.
So he waited but as time slowly went by he felt a weird vibe but he couldn't place it.

Dick walked out of the classroom, feeling numb. His head was lowered and to all the other kids in the hall no one could see him shedding tears, but Jason did. Dick walked right past him and slowly made it down the hall.
After a second he peaked inside the classroom to see the teacher looking out the back windows with a smirk on his face. Jason huffed and quickly went off to find Dick.

After looking for a bit he found him, he was sitting in a corner reading with headphones in his ears, blocking out the world. Tears now held within his eyes. Jason looked around to see the hall empty, he slowly made his way towards his brother.

"Dick" Jason said but got no response from him. Jason moved closer and lean down and gently touched Dick's shoulder.

The second he touched Dick, Dick jumped back, yanking his headphones off and about to throw his book at whoever just touched him.
His eyes were blown wide and a touch of fear were within his blue orbs along with tears and something else.

Jason held his hands up showing him that he meant no harm. He watched as Dick breathing was quick and uneven.
"Jay" he finally said between pants of breath. He shook his head a d gathered up his things before standing up and quickly brushing tears from his checks.
"What are you doing? It's lunch time...shouldn't you be in the cafeteria?" Dick asked Jason.

"Umm...I could ask you the same thing. What's going..." Jason began but before he could say anything else Dick began to back away from him.

"You should go to lunch Jason. I'll see ya later" said Dick with his head lowered then dashed away from him down the hall. Jason sighed and ran a hand through his hair and looked off in the direction his brother ran off in. He wanted to go after him, to make sure he was alright but was afraid if he did so he would push Dick farther away and that could be worst.

Jason had no idea what to do but he knew something had to be done and soon.
----------------------------

Dick quickly got away from Jason. He hated that, he knew that his little brother was just concern about him but he shouldn't be. Dick was nothing to be worried about, to be shown concern. Jason was wasting his time with him because Dick was worthless.

Dick walked into the bathroom and locked himself into one of the bathroom stalls. He pressed his back against the small door and slid down to the floor.
Dick closed his eyes tightly and he began to cry, allowing everything to fall, all the walls he put up.
He felt done, so numb, so lost.

Without any choice, his mind drifted to what happened in class today just a little bit ago.

The bell rang, signalling that class was over and that it was lunch time. Dick stood up slowly and gathered his things.
Just then his teacher asks Dick to stay after for a moment to speak.

Dick instantly feels a shutter travel down his spine, he feels so cold and paralyzed at this moment.
He stands there and waits for his classmates to all leave begging  silently to himself for them to not go, to not leave him alone.
He doesn't want to be touched or hit again, to be threaten and to be seen as a failure to Bruce.

Dick held his head down and his eyes closed tightly and waited but prayed it would never come.

"Richard" said his teacher as he walked closer towards him. He then laid his hand upon Dick's shoulder and squeezed tightly, causing Dick to wince in pain.

"Richard, are you ready for some...fun? Your punishment for being the worthless thing you are" voiced his teacher.
Dick wanted to say no, to pushed him away, but Dick didn't want to say or do anything that would anger the man.

The very first times this happened Dick fought back but that only made things worst.
Threats were then made and his grades began to slip. Bruce noticed this and got angry at him for slacking off, for not doing a better job.
That only set in what his teacher said to him into place. Now Dick doubted himself, felt broken, worthless, a loser, a waste of space, nothing, useless and not wanted.
Making his teacher's control on him that much more powerful.

Dick felt the teacher's hand around his throat as he began to grind himself on Dick. Dick closed his eyes tightly as a tear fell from his eye.  He bite his lip, he wanted to scream to cry out but he felt powerless...paralyzed in all of this.

"You're worthless. You're a stupid little slut aren't you? You are so disgusting, no one cares about you. To your father, you're just a charity case, a mistake. You're nothing." Voiced his teacher as Dick silently cried more.
His teacher's hands began to roam more of his body, sending small shivers throughout his body. His teacher then pressed Dick's small body against him and without thinking, just reacting Dick quickly turned and shoved his teacher.

But as soon as he did it, he panicked.

His teacher grabbed him by the collar of his shirt and lifted him in the air. Suddenly both of his hands were against Dick's throat, preventing him from breathing.

After what felt like forever, blackness creeping into his vision he felt the hands gone and he inhaled deeply. He closed his eyes, hoping it was over that he could leave but he was then pulled by the ankles and then sat upon by the teacher.

His teacher smiled widely at him and lean forward, causing his breath to touch Dick's skin, making him want to claw at it. He felt so disgusting, dirty. He hated himself.

"You're stupider than I thought." His teacher said.

"I-I... I'm s-sorry" Dick stuttered out as he shook in fear.
His teacher's hands then tugged at his belt and moved to unbuckle it when just then the teacher's phone rang and he stopped. He huffed and pushed himself off of Dick.
He pointed towards the door.

"Get! But the next time will be worst for you. You'll be begging at the end" his teacher said and answered his phone. Dick didn't waste no time and left quickly, feeling numb as tears fell more from him eyes.

Dick was then pulled out of his memories at the ringing of the bell. He didn't want to go to class, all he wanted to do was hide and disappear, so he got up and quickly left the school without anyone noticing.
-----------------------------

Jason hadn't seen Dick in a little bit and he was worried. His eyes soon landed on his big brother's best friend, Barbara Gordon. He made his way over towards the red head.

"Hey Babs" Jason said and smiled, he could see her roll her eyes.

"What do you want Jason?" She asked him. He quickly asked her if she had notice Dick acting off and she nodded yes to him and he could see worry in her blue eyes. He sighed.

"I need ya to hack something for me. I'll help Dickie out" he said and she agreed. She took him to the gym and she began her work.

She pulled up the school fed and he directed her to a classroom and they watched in horror.
Barbara then quickly tried to locate Dick and saw him leave school.

"I'm calling my dad." Barbara said pulling her phone out as Jason got up and began to walk out, anger flowing off him in waves.
"Where are you going?" Barbara questioned him.

"To deal with that S.O.B." he said then turned to face her, "Go find Dickie. He shouldn't be alone right now." She nodded yes and watched him leave, quickly calling her dad, the police commissioner.

Jason slammed the classroom door open and found the teacher alone. He quickly ran up to him and punched him square in the jaw, then he kicked him in the nuts.

"What the fuck!?! What is wrong with you punk?!?" Yelled the teacher.

"That's for hurting my brother!" Jason yelled and kicked out at the man once more.

"You got the wrong guy, I would never hurt a kid." Said the teacher with a small smirk on his face which only made Jason more angry.
"I don't even know who you are, let alone who your brother is" he said and Jason hit him again.

"I'm Dick's brother! You son of a b*tch! NO! You got the wrong guy by going after Dick! You will never hurt him again!" Jason yelled and the teacher began to laugh at him.

"That worthless piece of trash, wait til I get my hands on him. I'll show him a lesson or two" he chuckled out as Jason got ready to punch him again.

"Jason, that's enough" said Jim Gordon, Barbara's father. Two officers walked in and grabbed the teacher as The Commissioner walked over towards Jason.
"We have it from here. Go home to your family, Dick...he could use all the support you can give."

Jason nodded his head then looked back at the teacher as he was walked out. Jason then spit on him and watched them all leave.

He quickly made it home to find Dick in Barbara's arms crying as Alfred and Bruce stood by. Jason walked over towards Dick.

"Dickie?" Asked Jason and dick pulled away from Barbara and threw his arms around Jason and cried into his chest.

"It's okay. Shhh.... It's over now." Jason said and closed his eyes while he held onto Dick.

'...t-thanks..." Dick whispered to Jason.
"Shhh" hushed Jason.
