WALKING ON AIR
CHAPTER 1
The Bell rang, which announced the end of another school day. Barbara closed her text book. "I want all of you to reach chapters three and four for homework tonight."
Moans came from more than half of the students as they clothes their books, packed up their book bags, and ran for the door. Barbara noticed that Dinah had raced out of the classroom with the other students like usual. She did not want to be seen with her in public, which she could not understand. Perhaps this was not all that bad of a sign; perhaps it showed that Dinah thought of her as a mother, especially now after her real mother was killed. There was just so much to this parenting thing, and she had never had a child of her own. She didn't know if there was something wrong in their relationship or not, and she was afraid to talk to Dinah about it and start a problem if there isn't one.

Dinah ran down the main hall, dodging and weaving between other students to finally reach her locker, and there waiting for her was a boy. He was about her age, with shaved blonde hair. He was her height, since she was one of the taller girls in high school. "Hi, Dinah!" He said
"Hi, Jeff!" Dinah smiled as leaned up against her locker. Jeff was a nice boy, one of the few who did not think of her as geeky. Jeff wasn't that popular in school either. The first time, she actually liked an honest boy who sincerely liked her for who she was. "So, are we on for tonight?"
"yea, sure!" Jeff replied, shyly. "You want me to pick you up at your place?"
"Uh, perhaps I better meet you at the pizzeria," Dinah said. She had almost forgotten that she lived in the clock tower, and Barbara would not tolerate strangers just walking into their base of operation.
"Okay," Jeff was puzzled about her hesitation about him coming to her place to pick her up. Was there something weird with her parents? "What time did you want to meet?"
"How about six o'clock?" Dinah suggested.
"Six O'clock works. I really am looking forward to this dinner date, Dinah." Jeff said rather nervously and almost stumbling with his words.
"So am I, Jeff. I have to get going. I'll see you tonight," Dinah leaned forward and kissed him on the check and immediately turned and walked away, purposely teasing him. She did not turn around to see his reaction, but she knew that the kiss excited him.

Barbara was on the second level, in the kitchen getting herself a glass of milk. She rolled up to the island and with a push of the button, the cabinet door flung open. She pulled out a glass and placed the glass on the marble countertop. She had these countertops refurnished since the incident with Harley Quinn. Using the remote, Barbara moved her wheel chair towards the refrigerator; the cabinet door closing on its own.
Pushing a button on the refrigerator, the refrigerator door swung open. Barbara opened her wheelchair and pushed a button on her wheelchair to lift herself higher so she could reach the gallon sized plastic bottle of milk. As soon as she was high enough to reach it, she pulled it out and put it on her lap while she lowered her wheelchair and press the button to close the door.
All the work finally paid off as she reached the island and filled it up with the milk she had just retrieved. She had put the gallon of milk onto the Island when Helena came out of her room and ran over to the kitchen. She was wearing her black dress pants and a sparkling purple shirt with white sparkles and a triangle shape cut out from the chest like most of her outfits. She always liked to show some skin, even during the winter season. "Well, how do I look?"
"Looking good!" Barbara replied. "However, I still question about you and Reese going out in public."
"I've already told you, Reese is going to bring some take out from a restaurant and we are going to hand out in the center of New Gotham Park for a private picnic. There is going to be no one around, and that's the way we planned it."
"Okay, well, it may be your night off, but I want you to have your ear piece on so I can get a hold of you if Delphi picks up a disturbance."
"Do me a favor, Barbara. Unless there is a serious threat to humanity, please give us some privacy, and don't spy on us?"
"Do I ever spy on you?" Barbara eyes her sarcastically.
"Do I really need to answer that?" Helena grinned.
"I'm going out for a couple hours, so you'll be alone for dinner tonight Barbara! Bye!" Dinah was racing toward the exit door down on the first level.
"Hold it right there!" Barbara warned, controlling her wheel chair towards the railing. When she looked down she saw that Dinah was wearing a ocean blue dress that went down to her ankles. Keeping the dress up was two straps, one going over each of her bare shoulders. There was no sleeves to the dress. By far, it was the least conservative dress that either Helena or Barbara saw her where, yet it was more conservative than most of Helena's entire wardrobe.
"Wow, looking good, Dinah!" Helena said.
"Thanks, Helena!"
"I must say, you do look beautiful," Barbara admitted. "Anyway, where are you going?"
"Uh, I'm just going out with some friends from school."
"Dressed like that? It's not like you to rush out of here and leave just for no reason."
"I just want to get out of here awhile. I'll see you later," Dinah said rushed out of the door.
Barbara sighed. She almost regretted having that wall built. She had the wall built just a few feet past the elevator entrance after they defeated Harley Quinn. She had it built to hide the lair a little better in case Harley decided to reveal their location. The door on the other side is very hard to find unless you know what you were looking for. The only indication now was that hand scanner device that she had installed. It shortened the living area, but it was necessary to protect their hideout.
At times, it was a nuisance. This time in particular, when she couldn't stop Dinah from leaving without getting some answers. She nearly was able to sneak out without her knowing it. Before, she had to wait a minute or two before the elevator door opened, making it hard for anyone to sneak out.
"I think someone has a boyfriend," Helena said.
"How do you know?" Barbara looked up at her suspiciously. Did she know something?
"Isn't it obvious? She has been more cheerful than usual the past few weeks, and that dress? She's not going out with her friends, she's going out on a date."
"Is that all?" Barbara sighed with relief.
"Why, what did you think it was?"
"I don't know. She has not liked the idea of me being her teacher, and I was afraid that she was upset at me or something."
"You really need to learn to read the signs of a young teenager," Helena laughed.
"Hey, you were the first girl I ever helped raised, but you have just gone through a tragic event."
"Hello?" Reese's voice called out. Reese entered through +he door looking around for Helena. He had a bag full of take out food with him.
"Up here!" Helena yelled down, waving her hand.
Reese looked up. "Are you ready to go"
"I'm on my way down." Helena looked over at Barbara. "Catch ya' later."
