Hey guys, thanks all of you favorited, follow or reviewed. Honestly I'm surprised with how many people like this story. When I first began writing it I though it was bad and that nobody would like it but you all convinced me otherwise.

I hope you all enjoy.


Robin and Zatanna were lying down outside on the blanket staring up at the stars. Zatanna's head was on Robin's chest with her left arm reaching across and holding tightly and his arms were wrapped around her, holding her close to him.

"See those stars there," he said pointing, "That's the constellation known as Perseus, and that one there is Andromeda. Interesting story, Andromeda was the princess of Aethiopia and one day her mother boasted that Andromeda was more beautiful than sea nymphs. Poseidon would not tolerate this and so sent the monster Cetus to attack the city, his constellation is over there. The king of Aethiopia went to the Oracle of Delphi to ask what he should do. The Oracle told him that the only way to save his city was to sacrifice his daughter. She was stripped naked and chained to a rock. Perseus on his way home from killing Medusa saw Andromeda and saved her. They married and lived happy lives. When they died they were then cast into the stars by the gods."

Zatanna moved her head to look at Robin, "You're such a nerd," she said, he made a small pout, "It's cute." She stretched her neck to kiss him on the cheek.

"Of course it is," Robin gave his signature laugh.

They continued looking at the stars with Robin telling her everything he knew about their mythological history. Ten minutes later Robin could feel the steady beat of Zatanna's heart and hear her steady breathing; she had fallen asleep. He glanced at his watch, it was two-thirty in the morning. Zatanna shivered with the cold. Robin slipped out from under her carefully lowering her head before reaching down and carrying her bridal style back into the Cave. He brought her into her room, laying her down on her bed before tucking her in and kissing her on the forehead. He left to go to his own room when he got hungry. He went to the kitchen and saw Wally and Artemis on the couch asleep, spooning, but besides them there was no one. He went to the cupboard and pulled out some cookies. He was walking to his room when he heard the computer announce a new arrival.

Recognized, Batman, zero two.

Robin was nervous, Batman had told him to stay at the Cave and celebrate but now he came to the Cave which meant there was something important Batman had to say. He walked to the zeta-tubes to greet his mentor. There was Batman standing but on his face was an expression Robin had never seen him have before, it was an expression of worry with a flicker of fear.

"Dick, we need to talk." Now Robin's expression matched his mentors. Bruce would never call him Dick at the Cave unless it was of utmost importance.

"Sure, where?"

"Let's go to your room, it's probably the most secure location in this entire mountain."

They walked in silence to Robin's room. Robin kept looking up at his mentor and every time he did he saw that same expression, he was getting worried. When they reached Robin's room Robin went to the control panel near the door. Batman held his hand up and tried the override.

"Override, Batman, zero two."

"Access denied." Batman was shocked, he should be able to override everything. Robin just smiled and turned back to the control panel. He inserted a long complex combination, which would have opened the door if it had been anyone else's room but instead a retina scanner opened. Robin took off his glasses and exposed his eye to the retina scanner. "Robin Access, B zero one. Passcode FGHC, zero one zero four, two zero zero six."

"Voice recognition. Match. Access granted, welcome home sir."

"When did you step up the security?" Batman asked intrigued.

"After the Reds attacked I realized that my room was not well secured so I added the retina and voice recognition." Robin said with pride, "What did you want to talk about?"

"Let's sit down." Robin sat down on the bed and Batman on the chair by the desk. Batman then did something Robin would have never guessed, he took off the cowl. "First of all Dick I want you to know that I am proud of you and how you and Superboy worked together against Superman and me, but that's not why I'm here. I'm here to talk about what happened tonight."

"The hug with Zatanna? That was nothing just us celebrating the New Year's as friends." Dick looked like he was going to start sweating everywhere.

"Dick, I know that it's more than that. I watched the video of the midnight celebration." Dick opened his mouth but Bruce just kept talking, "I know what you're going to say, 'It was just the tradition,' but I also saw the more intimate meeting later. With the blanket and the candles and the fireworks. I saw that you two really like each other but..."

"I know, for the good of the Team we shouldn't go out. It could affect our working relationship and the consequences if we broke up could affect the entire Team."

"No, that's not what I was going to say." Batman moved to sit next to Dick on the bed, "I was going to say that you should have told me. Dick, I know that you're family is gone, taken from you, and I'm not your father but I care about you. You're the only son I have and I love you, I just want you to be happy. I'll admit, when I saw the hug I was shocked and I didn't know what to say that's why I didn't want to talk. I'm really sorry about that but Zatara made me promise years ago, when he joined the League, that if anything were to ever happen to him I would take care of Zatanna and until I heard you two talk outside I wasn't sure but now I am. You two have my permission, no not permission, my blessing to date."

Dick turned to Bruce, a huge smile on his face, and hugged his guardian. "Thank you Bruce. Thank you, thank you, thank you." Dick let go of Bruce. "I know you're not my father but you are still my family. I love you like I would my father, even when you make me train for hours and correct my mistakes, my father did the same. I even love you when you're the emotionless Batman. I'm so lucky to have you." Dick began crying and he hugged his guardian again. Bruce was also crying, touched by what Dick had said. He wiped his tears away with his arm and stood up.

"Thank you for that. Dick there are still some rules though. You cannot reveal your identity yet but when I give you permission you may. You cannot bring her to the Batcave and most important, you cannot spend all my money getting her gifts. Understood?" Dick nodded emphatically. Bruce began to leave and when he reached the door he turned around, "Oh and just so you know Zatanna is going to Happy Harbor next semester."


So there you have the moment you've all waited for for so long. Hope I didn't disappoint. Also first person to guess what the passcode is supposed to represent gets to have their idea in one of the future chapters. Please Review.
