Jo's POV

"Done!" I smile putting Damian's history homework in his bag and I look over at him and see he's asleep. I guess that's ok considering we have been doing homework for 3 hours now.

I walk over to him and see he's still on his English essay about Gotham park. I take it off him and go over to his desk to finish it for him.

He wrote:

I look over at him and smile, he definitely would have gotten an F for that. Damian never was that good at school, he's more of a practical type smart. I mean he's smart but when it comes to school he can't concentrate and the only reason he's not dropped out is because Bruce forces him to go.

I start over the Essay putting Damian's name at the top and I write the whole essay for him then put it in his bag and he mumbles something in his sleep making me turn around.

"Damian?"

His eyes are tightly closed and his brows are furrowed, "Damian?" I ask and he gasps sitting up. I go up to him and he stands up turning his back to me.

"It was nothing." He says then looks at the night sky and he glances back at me, "I need to go on patrol, you can sleep here until one of the spare rooms are cleaned." He says and I'm about to talk when he walks out the room not even looking at me.

Damian's POV

I had another nightmare. Infront of her too. The nightmare I get regularly and in it Jo is captured by the Joker then tortured brutally to death. It's the reason father wants me to stay away from her, he doesn't want me to loose her, he knows it'll break me.

I go down to the batcave before Jo can see if I'm ok and I change into my Robin suit and put on my mask. "Damian." Father says firmly making me turn around.

"What?!" I snap and he narrows his eyes at me.

"Maybe you should take the night off, Gotham will be safe enough with me and Jason patrolling it." Father says and I shake my head walking towards the batmobile and I try to open the door but it won't open.

"Unlock it." I say frustrated with his constant 'are you ok' and 'maybe you should take a night off' talks. They are stupid and inappropriate, I'm strong and I can handle myself just fine.

"Jo said you had a nightmare, she's worried about you." Father says and Jason walks in putting on his helmet.

"He's right you know, Josephine shouldn't be left alone.' Jason says and I look at him slightly surprised he knows her secret.

"What do you mean?" I ask.

"Don't play dumb, we checked her record before we let her stay here, just after her mother was murdered she tried to kill herself and was in and out of the mental hospital until she was 14 and her dad and her moved to Gotham." Jason says and I look down, "You can see in her eyes she's breaking and I know from experience that you can only fake smile for so long until it drives you insane." He says then sighs, "And you know how long it took for me to get better again." Jason reminds me then gets in the batmobile.

Father looks at me, "Don't leave Jo's side, that's an order." He says then leaves and drives off in the batmobile.
