My Love
Dick couldn't sleep. Not knowing that his girlfriend, the love of his life, was a couple hallways down with no memory of him whatsoever. He looked over at his nightstand with the picture of Helena on it. He had taken her to watch a movie and after a walk around the park. She was leaning up against the tree smiling because it was the first time he said that he loved her. It was very rare that he heard her laugh, because she was exactly like Bruce, and Dick treasured those moments when they came around. He sighed. Maybe if I just stop thinking I could just drift off.
When he woke up, the first thing he thought about was that he could see her. He jumped out of bed and ran to the bathroom to turn on the shower and find a clean towel. While the water was heating up, he went to his closet to pick out his clothes. He decided on a blue shirt with black skinny jeans then laid them on his bed. He quickly got in, did his hair and other business, then got out. He brushed his teeth and thought about shaving. He styled his hair, put his clothes on checked himself in the mirror one last time. He was so nervous he could barely breathe. They had known each other almost their entire lives and he didn't have a crush on her way back when they first met. Okay maybe he did, but what nine-year old wouldn't have a thing for Gotham's Princess? One last look and he was off to meet his love.
He walked out of his room and shut his door quietly. Maybe if he was as quiet as possible, Bruce wouldn't come and talk to him on the way down there.
"She still doesn't remember you Dick." Oops, too late. Then again, who could avoid the Dark Knight himself?
"What did Leslie say?"
"Helena's amnesia is temporary and she needs to be surrounded by family and friends." Then Dick got an idea.
"Could I take her out to a movie or something tonight? We could go to some of her favorite spots, and who knows? She might just remember something..." Bruce scowled. He didn't want Helena out of the house now. Dick did have a good point though, if anyone could help her regain some memories it would be him.
"Fine. If she says yes, I will let you take her out." Dick smiled. Now he could finally get some alone time with Helena. He walked down to Helena's room and stood at the door. He knocked a couple of times.
"Come in!"
She was sitting at the mini couch in the middle of her room watching Two and a Half Men. She had on a dark purple tank top, dark blue jeans, and a silver cross necklace that she never took off. Her hair was up in a ponytail and she had a pair of black leather boots on. If he got hard from just looking at her, how was he going to even going to get through the day without kissing her? Dick walked into her room and closed the door. He tried to look casual while he leaned against the back of her couch. God, she was beautiful.
"You must be Dick, right?" He looked at her completely stunned. For a second he started to hope.
"You remember me?"
"No, but there's a picture of us on my nightstand with a necklace that has your name on it."
"Oh yeah, I forgot you had that picture there. But anyway, yeah. I'm Richard 'Dick' Grayson and I just so happen to be your loving boyfriend who would like to take you out tonight." For what seemed like forever they stared at each other trying to read the other person. Finally she broke the silence.
"Boyfriend, huh? I guess I can see that. Alright so when do you want to leave?" She stood up and crossed her arms.
"Whenever your ready." Dick took out his car keys and shook them in front of her.
"What are we waiting for then?" Helena walked out and went down to the living room. On the way down Bruce put his hand on Dick's shoulder. He turned around.
"I'm letting you take my daughter out in her condition because I trust you Dick." He was shocked. He didn't think Bruce trusted anyone but Helena and Alfred.
"Thanks Bruce. That really means a lot to me." He turned to walk away but Bruce still had his hand on his shoulder.
"If anything happens to her I'll kick your ass to Arkham before you can even blink."
