(We're going back to Dick's PoV :)
How could something so simple have turned out so wrong? It was meant to be a celebration... But it only turned out to be a disaster. Heavy on the 'Dis'.
It had been 2 months since I had gone back to living with Bruce. Those 2 months weren't easy. It was hard. There were a lot of times when I felt miserable and all I wanted to do was give up. I even tried one more attempt at suicide. But Wally, Bruce and Artemis found out and pulled me through. They saved me just in time. Throughout those hard times they were always there for me and never left my side.
I smiled at my friends surrounding me. Bruce had invited them around. We were all sitting on the couches joking, laughing, smiling, sharing cookies... like everything was normal. I looked at each person and thought of what they meant to me.
I had my arm around Barbra, the smile she wore warming my heart.
At the end of the first month I had started going back to school, which also wasn't easy, especially when everyone thinks you're crazy. Even Barbra did! She ignored me all day, which was hurtful. She managed to avoid me in all of our classes. By lunch I had enough of it, so I dragged her away into a random room where I could talk to her. We talked and somehow that talk turned into a kiss that left us both breathless. After that she stared into my eyes and promised that she will never doubt me again. She tried to help me as best as she could.
Artemis sat next to us. She protected and stood up for me when I needed it.
Some older boys at school thought it would be funny to pick on the 'Psycho kid'. They stole my bag and started tossing it around. Artemis jumped in and fought off the boys. The boys ran off like scared little kids and never bothered me again. No one messed with Artemis and they all knew that she had my back. I could go to her whenever I needed because she would be for me.
Then Wally was sitting there next to Artemis, and he was telling the lamest jokes ever. He was my big brother and tried his hardest to make me smile.
Every weekend Wally would come around to see me. Usually he'd drag poor Artemis along with him. He helped me work at being happy. We'd laugh and joke about stuff that didn't even make sense. He believed in me and never gave up. Also, he convinced people that I was normal. It took a while for people to realise that I wasn't insane, but that did. Wally's Uncle Barry even came over and apologised.
Bruce and Alfred weren't in the room, but they were the reason I was sitting there with my friends.
They gladly took me back in. At first it was a little tense between Bruce and me. Soon though, we both lightened up and we tried to get back the father and son relationship we had before. And Alfred was still my grand-father. They say you never miss something until it's gone. Well, I realised how much I missed Alfred's cooking. Bruce and Alfred gave me a home and a family.
I leant back in my chair smiling. Things were finally looking better again. I could get on with my life. My friends and family were there for me and that's all that mattered. With their help I would get through this. I don't want to fly too quickly. I'm enjoying the suspense and joy of falling because I know that when the times right, I'll open my wings and fly away. Just, not yet.
I can't just forget what happened, no matter how much I'd like to. Healing is a long and painful process...But its well worth it. My shattered life began to disappear. Heavy on the 'Dis'.
Short and sweet! Thanks for reading and also for sticking around! :D Hope you guys enjoyed it! Please review. Thank you!
