New Chapter!

Pop is introduced!

I can't believe how short these chapters are compared to He's Rescued, Now What?- I mean, it's like 1000 words difference. Per chapter. It's so weird...

DISCLAIMER: I own nothing. I don't think I even own the idea. I mean, there's like 7 circus stories on here.

Megan bounced over to the ticket counter to check their tickets. The clown manning the booth nodded to them and waved them through, winking at Dick when their eyes met from behind the makeup or sunglasses. Dick bit back a groan. So much for them not recognizing me.

Dick realized that he had to do something and excused himself from the team, saying that he needed to use the restroom and would meet them in the tent. Wally watched him worriedly but let him go.

Dick hurried through the crowd, waving at the circus folk who he recognized as he passed. Finally, he reached his destination- the trailer that served as an office. He knocked and pushed the door open.

"Hey, Pop."

Pop Haley stood up and smiled before moving to embrace the boy.

"Dickie! I was hoping that we'd see you while we were in the US. Didn't expect you at Happy Harbor though."

"Yeah…" DIck rubbed the back of his neck sheepishly. "See… the thing is, I'm here with my friends-remember, from the Europe tour? And they… they aren't exactly… they don't…"

Pop grinned at him and leaned in to whisper. "They're your superhero buddies, aren't they? Bet the redhead's Kid Flash. Heard that he and Robin were friends."

Dick stared at him, wide-eyed. "You.. you know about the Robin thing? I mean, I knew you knew we were the Dangers, but..."

Pop laughed. "Of course. We recognized you the first time you were caught on tape. Still move like an acrobat."

"Right, anyway, my friends, they don't actually know who I really am, so..."

"I'll spread the word. Don't worry Dick, we won't blow your cover."

Dick grinned at him. "Thanks, Pop. While I'm here, do you think that there's any way, I could-"

"I'll arrange it. I would never deny a Flying Grayson a chance to fly."

Dick leaned over and gave the man who had acted as his grandfather since he was born a hug.

"Thanks, Pop."

AAAAWWWWW!

Review! Please! Pretty Please!

...Fine, the physical appearance of the please doesn't matter (stole that from a friend).

Please do review though!
