It Hurts Daddy: chapter 6
"He floats through the air….with the greatest of ease…this daring young man…on the flying trapeze…" quietly sang Dick while walking, well more like staggering, barefoot through a cold, dark and bare alley.
Somehow, someway, Richard Grayson, in his mentally fragile state, had managed to not only get out of his restraints but also sneak out of the hospital without anyone noticing. Bat training doesn't go away even when your mind does apparently.
Dick was only dressed neck to ankles in fresh bandages, making him look like a little mummy. His vibrant blue eyes though dazed and glazed as if dreaming, still held a shine of innocence and curiosity. He toddled through the alley like a baby, barely learning how to walk.
"oh, he floats through the air... this daring young man... the flying trapeze" sang Dick looking up at the cloudless star lit sky. Once he was at the opening of the alley that lead to the mainly abandoned street he saw the most beautiful, bright full moon.
He leaned heavily on a street lamp gazing at the beautiful globe of glowing white. "So pretty…" thought the child as he reached for it the way a little kid would reach for a parent, asking to be picked up.
Unfortunately with his offset balance, he leaned too far back and fell on his back to the cold ground. "oww" whined the boy with tears prickling through his eyes. He just laid there for a while, and stared.
Stared into the vast abyss of space and for once in a very long time felt truly and utterly at peace.
-flap-flap-flap- a bird landed on the overhanging street lamp. And of all the birds it could have been, it was a robin. A tiny, bright chested robin, that was looking intently at the boy before him. Being either brave or curious, the bird flew down and landed right on the boys' chest.
"you're a pretty bird" mumbled the boy, "mommy's bird… mommy's robin" his breath coming out as a ghostly fog "like me" laughed the teen. Not understanding the strange drabble that came out of this humans mouth, the bird cocked it little head and just tweeted in response before it flew away.
"Bye-bye robin" waved the ebony "go back home….go home" whispered Dick, slight realization coming back to him. "Home…I wanna go home" he said, turning over to his front and picking himself up to his knees. "I wanna go back to them…" said Dick grabbing the light pole and pulling himself strait, "I have to go back to them…" he stated and marched as best he could in the direction of the cave.
Back to his home, back to his friends, back to his family.
A/n Okay, Sorry for making you all wait so dang long for this BUT I'll tell you, I put my heart and soul into this peace and I hope that makes up for it. It's shorter than I would of liked but I'm really happy how this chapter turned out and I hope you all enjoy it.
