Bruce could hear Jason and Todd arguing as he walked over to the kitchen.

"You can't really think that you would be better than me."

Before Todd could reply, Bruce entered the room. It was rare for them to see Bruce in the kitchen. They all stood there in disbelief while watching as he walked over to the coffee machine. He had a light smile on his face which was even more of a shock to the family than seeing him in the kitchen. Cass and Steph already had a hunch as for why he was there and seeing Bruce's light smile confirmed their suspicions.

"Shouldn't you be in the cave?" He said while turning around to look at their shocked faces.

"We could ask the same thing." Damian said cockily while looking at Bruce.

He looked at Damian with narrowed eyes. Damian looked down at his feet before he walked out of the kitchen. A few moments later the others exited as well. When she was sure it was clear, Barbara walked into the kitchen. She was only wearing one of Bruce's shirts. She walked over to him and pressed her body against his; she leant up and gave him a soft kiss.

"It's clear I see." She said with a warm smile.

"I don't know how you can stand to get up this early, especially with your night job." She teased.

"After all the time I've spent doing this, I've adapted to it." He said with a smile.

"You know if you keep that up they are going to cotton on sooner or later."

He gave her a small shrug before leaning in and kissing her passionately. Dick was about to enter the library as he realised he had forgotten his phone. He walked back to the kitchen to be shocked by seeing Bruce and Barbara kissing. He stood there in disbelief before hastily hiding behind the nearby wall. He shook his head a few times while trying to comprehend what he had just witnessed. He quickly began walking over to the library, he had long forgotten about his phone. 'I need to talk to Barbara.' he thought to himself while stepping through the hidden doorway.

Note

Sorry for the short story. I am planning on writing more, I just wanted to upload this to see what sort of responses I get, that is if I get any. I hope you enjoyed anyway, I'm still new to this so it might be a little while before I upload the next chapter. However I am planning on making it a lot longer than this one. Also this is rated M because I am planning on writing, heated romance scenes in the future.
