Bruce's pov

As I sat in the cave and did my report, I listened to Dickie's calm breathing through the monitor. I heard crying then it just suddenly stopped then goes to screaming. I heard a rustling sound than something breaking as I rushed upstairs, cowl and all, to Dick's room. I go in and saw a man in black taking my son. How did he even get in here? I slam the door shut and glare at him.

"If you want to walk out of here with all of your limbs intact, I suggest that you put him down and go the way you came." I ordered him in a scary calm voice.

He panicked and held a gun to Dickie's head making Dickie cry even louder. I froze to see the gun. I refuse to lose my son to some punk with a gun.

"I suggest you fly out of here bats." The man ordered.

I held my hands up then threw my batarang at his legs. He fell letting Dickie in the air. I rushed to catch him. I kicked the guy in the head knocking him out. I cradle Dickie close to me as I reach for the phone.

"Hey Bruce." The commissioner said.

"Commissioner. Some one tried to take Richard. Batman came and saved him but the thief is still here." I explained in my Wayne voice.

"We'll be there in 10 minutes." The commissioner said as he hung up.

I put Dick down much to my dislike and changed quickly. I cuffed the guy before taking Dick in my arms. I rocked him slowly stop him from crying. He looked up at me with his tears eyes.

"It's ok Dickie. Daddy's here. It's ok. I won't let anyone hurt you. Ok. Daddy's here." I whispered to him as I kissed his forehead.

He stopped crying at my words. He started to giggle at me.

"Dada!" He giggled to me.

"Dickie you said you first word. I'm so proud of you" I said as I laughed with him.

"Dada! Dada!" He said over and over again.

I walked down stairs when I heard sirens outside. I tried to look like a worried person but it's hard with Dick in my arms.

"Are you ok Bruce?" Gordon asked.

"Yeah. I was downstairs getting something to drink when I heard something break and someone talking. I saw batman with my son in his arms and he just put him down and left." I lied smoothly.

"The paramedics will be here soon to check Dick out. Ok." He said.

"Thank you." I thank him as I turn my attention to Dickie who stopped talking a while ago.

He went back to his giggling and played with my fingers.

"Dada. Bama." He said happily.

"What?" I asked.

"Baman." He said again.

I thought about what he is saying. Dada and Baman. It took me a minute to realize that he is say daddy is batman. I laughed at him and kissed his forehead.

"You really are a little detective aren't you my little bird." I coed at him.

After the paramedics came and check Dick out, giving him a clean bill of health. I walked back in the house and straight to my room. I changed into my pajamas ad laid down next to Dick. I cradled him to my chest kissed his forehead. I could tell by the look on his face that he was getting sleepily. I pulled the covers over us and wrapped my arm around him.

"Sweet dream Dickie." I whispered as I kissed his puffy cheek.

"Dada." He whispered as he put his hand on his lips then on my cheek.

He fell asleep safe in my arms.
