Bruce Wayne sighed as he leaned back into his chair and let his past actions wash over him. It was a little before midnight and the boy in his arms wasted no time in spending this cold night sleeping. The billionaire would have thought about doing the same if it wasnt for the fact the boy had came to him while he was in the Batcave, crying for his deceased mother and father. Judging by the way the Dick's teary eyes seemed to be looking right through him, Bruce instantly knew he was sleep walking. Not wishing to upset the child even more, Bruce took the boy in his arms and held him delicately in a spot where he was sure to be warm and comfortable. While he was asleep, Bruce would act as his father while his real father rest in peace.

"Excuse me, Master Bruce."A familiar voice called from behind the White Knight. "But have you seen Master D-oh."

Bruce turned and met the twinkling eyes of his trusted butler, Alfred, who smiled at the sight of Bruce comforting his adopted son. Dick Grayson had only been apart of the Wayne family for only a few agonizing weeks and yet here he was, in Bruce's arms, sleeping peacefully. Alfred's shoulders lowered a bit in relief. Maybe Zucco's defeat was really the only thing he needed to be comfortable at the manor, he thought.

"He just wandered in here."Bruce said."I think he was sleepwalking."

Before Alfred had a chance to respond, a second, more high pitched voice appeared from the Batcave's entrance."Hey, I couldnt find him Alfred!"Barbara Gordon cried as she came running over to the monitor. As soon as her eyes caught sight of Dick in Bruce's arms, she let out a relieved yet irritated sigh.

"Oh, there he is."She said, taking a step closer to the sleeping child. "Awww, doesn't he look so cute like that?"

"Yes, he does."A third voice said, as Lucius Fox came into view. Turning to Bruce, he quirked an amused brow."I see you found him?"

Bruce laughed a little,"Sorry about that."He said.

"Don't worry about it."Lucius said with a wave of his hand. "How are you doing?"

The dark haired man shrugged a little, trying his best not to awake the sleeping child."I'm fine. I managed to finish a full scan of Gotham before he came in so Batman's alright too."

"I can do a quick patrol around if you want."Barbara said without a glance to the playboy. She ran a hand through Dick's messy bangs and put them into a place out of his eyes. She giggled slightly when the boy snuggled further into Bruce's warm arms and let out a content sigh. Putting some distance between her and the detective, Barbara could really see how much the duo did look alike.

"That's alright."Bruce said. "Besides, don't you have that big exam tomorrow afternoon?"

Barbara shrugged with a bright smile."It's worth it if the kid could stay like that just a little longer."

Bruce returned the smile with one of his own before directing it to his new son. He tightened his grip around Dick's small waist and lowered his eyes a little to enjoy the moment. Something in the back of his head told him that his guests and butler wouldnt mind the small break. It actually seemed that they were content with just watching the two than anything else. The small Bat-family moment would have lasted longer if the loud blare coming from the alarm hadnt pierced through the warm silence. Alfred quickly turned off the alarm before the stirring child could fully awaken.

"What's going on?"Lucius asked.

Alfred's dark eyes glanced briskly over the screen. "It seems someone has broken into the Batcave."

"An intruder?"Barbara questioned.

"No."Bruce said simply, turning his chair with Dick to take a look at the monitor. On the top of the screen showed the video a red blur entering the cave from the Gotham streets. From behind him, a few more blurs appeared, zipping down the path in attempt to catch up. "They're friends."

The sound of light feet tapping in the distance made everyone turn and see the Flash, in his civilian clothes, running up to them. He came to a screeching stop just in front of the Bat, smiling brightly with his hands on his waists. "Hey, Bruce!"He shouted loudly.

"Shhh!"Lucius, Barbara and Alfred hushed quickly.

"Be quiet."Barbara whispered sharply, just as the rest of the Justice League appeared. Clark Kent, the Man of Steel, flinched at her tone and instantly dropped to the ground without a sound beside Wally. Diana, John, J'onn, and Shayera each followed closely after, trying their best to keep quiet as Barbara hissed out a ,"Or you'll wake Dick!"

"Dick?"Wally tilted his head to the side."Who's Dick?"

On cue, Bruce swivled around in his chair, revealing the silent child. In perfect unison, the Justice League each flinched with surprise, eyes locked on Dick.

"Is that him?"Diana whispered, taking a hesitant step forward. "Your new son?"

Bruce nodded without a word. He turned to Clark."Is there something I can help you with?"

Clark flinched out of his shock and stamered an answer,"U-Uh n-no. We saw you're name in the tabloids about adopting and Wally just had to come see the kid for his self."

"So you all had to come?"Bruce whispered, doing nothing to hide his annoyance. No one bothered to answer his question. Nothing was as scary as the Bat himself, they thought. Much to their relief Diana spoke up as she walked closer to the Dynamic Duo. She, out of everyone else, seemed the least unfazed by the billionaire's bad attitude.

"How old is he?"She asked, bending down a little to see the boy clearly.

Bruce was silent for a second, almost as if he was contemplating whether he should answer or throw them out.

"He's nine."

Diana smiled at Dick, like a mother would her own child. She raised her hand to touch the boy, when Wally sped forward and poked Dick a few times in the face. "Why is he so small?"

"He's nine."Bruce growled, as Alfred smacked Wally's hand away.

"He looks so peaceful."Shayera said, walking up to the group. "Especially around you, Bruce."

It was safe to say Bruce's annoyance was gone the minute Hawkgirl's words sunk in.


Yeah, the ending sucks but I didnt really know how to end it anyway. haha XD. Anyway, I know this is a Young Justice story and the Flash isnt Wally West but I like the Flash from the Justice League tv show. Just like I like John Stewart better than the first Green Lantern, Hal. It's all because I watched the Justice League before I read the comic book so don't judge. XP. Anyway, I hoped you like it, I'll update some more mini-stories later. If you have a reqest for a moment you want to see with Dick, than just review or pm me. I'm already taken requests from kids at my school so there's more coming. Well, see you next chapter!
