"What the hell were you thinking?"
Tim winced as Bruce chucked a book at the wall. I stood a few paces behind Tim, overwhelmed at the anger of the man in front of me.
"You told someone!" Bruce said, "Tim, we've talked about this. You're endangering her life"
"For the record" I said, "He didn't tell me. I found out" The man glared at me and I took a timid step back.
"Bruce, she was already endangered. It wouldn't have mattered if she knew or not. Joker captured her before she knew" Tim stood in front of me, still in his Robin suit. We were both soaked to the bone. And I had his mask buried deep in my back pocket. He had never asked for it back. I was glad, because I wanted to keep it anyway.
"Me, personally, I believe it's wonderful to have a woman around once again" Alfred picked up the book that Bruce had thrown and put it back in its proper place. Bruce glared at him. "Sir, you know it was only a matter of time before someone found out. At least Master Tim trusts her and she is not an enemy. True Miss Zwinger?"
"Yes, sir" I said, smiling slightly at the old man. I turned back to look at Bruce when I realized he was no longer there.
"Bruce?" Tim looked down the hall. There was no one there.
"Master Wayne probably went to the cave" the old butler said.
"The…cave?" I asked.
"Yeah" Tim said, pulling the cape over his head, "I'll be back in a minute, 'kay?"
I don't know what Tim said to him when he was down there, but after Alfred took me home I got a phone call.
"Hello?" I said.
"Hey" I'd recognize that cheerie, sarcastic voice anywhere.
"What'd he say?" I asked nervously. I wasn't really sure if I wanted to know the answer.
"He'll be fine" Tim said from the other line, "To tell you the truth, I'm glad you found out. It was really hard keeping it from you."
I smiled, "So that's why you wouldn't let me hold your hand"
"Yeah. I had that burn on my hand."
I laughed a little, but was interrupted by a yawn.
"Are you tired?" he asked.
"A little" I said, not wanting to lie.
"I'll let you go okay?" he said, "I'll to talk to you later"
"Alright" I said, " 'Night"
" 'Night"
