"No, no! I couldn't impose," Kory quickly retorted. "Besides, this is supposed to be a trip for just you and your dad." She could hear Dick let out a breath of relief, but Kory knew that Rory had something up her sleeve. And, like a tag team, Rory quickly stepped forward with a sweet smile on her face.

"Dad, weren't your exact words 'a family vacation'?" Her smile only grew larger as Dick slowly nodded his head. "And mom is part of our family. Therefore she should go."

"She's going to be a lawyer someday…," Dick muttered before attempting to regain his cool. "Fine, I'll ask your mom, but if she says no then there is nothing I can do." Kory smiled, understanding what Dick was doing.

"So Kory," he turned to Kory grinning like an idiot, "Would you like to go with us on vacation?" She opened her mouth to answer when her eyes came across her kids, their eyes filled with hope. Her mind debated what to do. On one hand, her kids would be sad if she didn't go, but she would avoid spending the weekend with him. On the other hand, her kids would be happy but her weekend would be spent with him. Her eyes went back and forth between Dick and the kids when finally an idea hit her. I bet he would hate spending a weekend with me as much as I would. And an unhappy Dick equals a happy Kory.

"I would love to come with," she giggled at the sights of the kids jumping up and down with excitement while Dick's shoulders slumped a bit.

"We'll leave tonight," Dick grumbled. "Meet me at the airport." Kory nodded as they swiftly left.

He scanned the airport, his ever present sunglasses masking his eyes, looking for his family. She was always late; he shook his head slightly, banishing the memories of his past with her. He perked up at the sounds of Mari and Rory fighting over something while making their way through the terminal. Mari's long black hair was pulled into a ponytail, two strands framing her face. Rory's red hair was down with a small green ribbon tied in the back. He chuckled at the bickering sisters each blaming the other for losing an earring. Seconds later, Ryan came running behind them, his rolling suitcase close behind him.

"Ryan, please slow down!" He looked up at her angelic voice. He blinked a couple times. She looked stunning in a white sundress, hugging her body in all the right places, her fiery red tresses in loose curls. He had never gotten over how gorgeous she was…. She waved bringing Dick back to reality.

"Ready for some fun?" Dick asked playfully. Only to receive the cold shoulder from the girls and a tiny nod from Ryan. Kory sighed, wondering if Dick could make up for what he did. Quickly they bordered the Wayne company plane with the girls sitting as far away from Dick as possible while Ryan sat between Dick and Kory, curiously inspecting everything in sight. Kory giggled as Ryan happily laughed when the plane took off. The plane ride was a silent one, the girls talked quietly with themselves and every so often would shoot an icy glare Dick's way while Ryan fell asleep soon after take off, leaving Kory to awkwardly converse with Dick.

"How's the wedding planning going?" she masked the envy in her voice with a polite smile.

"Babs is handling all of it. Going to cost me a fortune," he added with a chuckle as silence once again filled the air. She remembered planning their wedding day so vividly. They both desired an intimate setting, with only their close friends and family present. It was a backyard wedding with everything simple resulting in a small budget. The captain's voice brought her back to reality as they began their descent.

The family hurried through the nearly deserted terminal. Mari and Rory were ahead of the family, both too tired from the flight to argue, while Dick carried Ryan who was still sleeping soundly. A man with in a dark business suit stood near the front of the airport, holding a sign reading Mr. Grayson. Everyone quickly made their way to the man who greeted them heartily.

"Welcome to Newport," he swiftly picked up the girls' bags and guided them towards a car. Kory helped the girls' in and then the delicate task of putting Ryan in the car without waking him. Once finished with the task she made her way to the passenger seat, not wanting to sit near Dick again. But the man handed Dick the keys and walked away.

"Your driving?" she asked with a raised eyebrow, wondering if this was karma getting her back for not picking up the piece of garbage she spotted in the terminal. He nodded before starting to drive and Kory swiftly produced a CD from her purse and popped it in the player. Soon music filled the car. It had two purposes: one was to help the girls fall asleep and the other was to stop any awkward conversation between Kory and Dick.

After an hour of driving, he glanced up, looking at his rearview mirror. The sight made him smile: Mari's head was comfortably resting on Rory's as both girls slept while Ryan covered himself with a blanket, only a bit of his black hair peeking out from the top.

"Cute, aren't they?" she turned around while quietly giggling at the sight. "I don't ever get tired of seeing it." There was a little bitterness in her voice as she turned to look out her window, avoiding his gaze. He didn't know how to respond, so he brushed off the comment and brought his attention back to the road. She couldn't take the silence anymore; Kory wanted to make sure that Dick understood what he was missing so she took a deep breath before facing Dick with her emerald eyes filled with passion and courage.

"Mari is getting all A's and her teachers all praise her. She is thinking about being a detective or lawyer. Rory is quite outgoing, her art teacher calls her a prodigy but she is more interested in sports. She really likes track and cheerleading." Dick just continued to stare at the road and Kory continued, hoping to get the reaction she wanted, "Ryan is growing up so fast. His coach thinks he'll be a superstar as he grows up." Still he didn't do anything, Kory sighed returning her gaze back to the window. She didn't notice Dick clenching his fist against the steering wheel and his sunglasses masked the pain in his eyes.

"Here we are," Dick announced as the car pulled to a stop. Kory hopped out of the car at gawked at the beauty; giant trees hid the cabin and a lake was near by. The sun peeked out from the trees and the lake shined wonderfully. One by one, the kids jumped out of the car while Dick carried the luggage. They waited patiently by the door as Dick searched for the keys. Kory didn't mind; the fresh air was peaceful, it seemed to melt all the tension away.

"Let's get unpacked," Dick swung the door open and everyone quickly walked inside. A smile appeared on her face as she eyed the cabin. The kitchen was big with dark granite counters and a red fridge with six tall stools around the island. A fireplace created a cozy atmosphere in the living room, where there was a big leather couch and two french doors facing the lake. She glanced upstairs, noting the oak banister and saw six different doors.

"The two rooms in the far back are for Mari and Rory, there is a bathroom in between them. Ryan your room is the first door on you left; the bathroom is the next door. Your mom and I will be in that room." He pointed to the big door at the far side of the hall. "Go put your stuff away then we can eat." A small grin appeared on his face as the kids ran to their rooms, leaving a wide-eyed Kory behind.

"Relax, there are two beds," he reassured her as she picked up her suitcase in a huff and went to the room.

"This is going to be a long weekend," he muttered before following Kory.

She quickly unpacked and left Dick alone in the room. Kory decided to try to avoid him at all cost this weekend.

"Does he remember…," she pondered while opening the fridge.

"Do I really need this blindfold?" she asked innocently as her fingers made their way up to tug it off. His strong hand gently swatted her hand away while he chuckled at her curiosity.

"Come on Kor, it's a surprise," he explained, watching as she playfully pouted. Dick turned the radio on and filled the car with music for the rest of the ride.

"Can I take it off now?" Kory questioned as the car stopped moving. "Dick?" She became worried when he didn't make a sound and she could hear the car door opening then closing.

"Grab my hand," he instructed after opening her door. Her worries disappeared when their hands touched. He stopped her and slowly took off the blindfold. Her mouth dropped as she took in the beauty of the forest.

"Are you surprised?" he asked with a half grin while leading her away to the cabin. "We get this place all to ourselves for the whole weekend." She stopped his hand as he turned the doorknob.

"I know what I want to do first," she added seductively as they passionately kissed.

The fridge, already stocked with food for the weekend, making it easy for Kory to find the ingredients need to make pancakes. She hummed softly while quickly mixing everything together. Soon Ryan joined her, his eyes still filled with excitement.

"Whatcha doing mom?" Ryan asked as he plopped down on a stool, watching as she flipped the pancakes in the air.

"Making pancakes," she added with a giggle before handing him a plateful, which he gladly accepted. It wasn't long until everyone else was also enjoying Kory's pancakes.

"So what should we do today?" Kory questioned while grabbing the now emptied plates.

"It's up to the kids." Dick eyed Mari and Rory who were both now wearing grins on their faces.

"We know what we want to do," they spoke simultaneously, causing Ryan to giggle as he caught on to their plan. Both parents raised an eyebrow waiting for them to continue.

"We want," Mari started, her emerald eyes sparkling with mischief.

"To," Rory continued, her sapphire eyes having the same glint as her sister. Both paused, adding to the growing tension.

"SKY DIVE!" Ryan blurted causing everyone to turn to him, their eyes wide as their jaws fell to the ground.
