Robins POV

I chuckled to myself, laughing at all of their expressions. I sighed, looking to my left, finding her smiling as she looked out the window. Her blue eyes sparkled, her obvious excitement and happiness making me smile.

I had warned Wally to not break the mansion, but I couldnt help but worry. Bruce loved that mansion. It was where he originally grew up as a kid, where he had memories with his parents. Even though the memories usually gave him grief, he didnt have the heart to sell or destroy up the property that held so many happy and sad memories for him. I respected that.

I smiled a little as I saw the outline of the manor in the distance, the towers glinting in the light.

"Is that it?" Artemis asked. I looked at her, noticing she had followed my line of sight.

"Yeah" I nodded. "Were not far now"

"Rob, tell us about your life" Wally said bluntly.

My eyes widened, everyones attention instantly turning to me. I was taken back, I hadnt expected him to say that. I looked at his face, raising an eyebrow, stating my silent question. He arched one eyebrow as well as his respopnse, the serious expression still on his face. That expression didnt suit him, I thought.

Wally being serious was scary.

"You kinda owe it to us" I stared dumbfounded at the blonde archer, wondering what madness had actually made her agree with the speedster for once.

The corners of my mouth twitched up into a half smirk "Sure" I nodded.

I leaned against the leather seat "Just ask, what do you want to know?"

They were all silent for a moment, seeming to contemplate what questions they would ask me. I wondered what curiosity they had in store, I had literally given them free reign into my mind and thoughts, I hoped I wouldnt regret it. I was always a secretive person, it would take me sometime to come out of my shell. You had to be a special kind of person to be able to make me do that, maybe thats why I wasnt really overly good with strangers. I was polite, forcibly so, I was a Grayson and a Wayne after all, I had impeccable manners.

But that was it, a seemingly warm exterior of cold and political politeness.

But then I realized it wasnt the case with these people, thye made me laugh and smile genuinely, which was something I didnt do often a few years back.

I was relieved.

"Whats your favorite color?" Wally asked stupidly, blurting it out in that goofy grin of his.

"Blue" I chuckled. Zatanna laughed, the sweet sound filling the place.

"Is that it?" I questioned with a smile, folding my arms in front of my chest.

They all shook their heads vigoriously. "No way" they all said unison.

I cracked up a smirk, shaking my head good naturedly at them.

"What were your parents like?" Zatanna whispered to me.

I stiffened automatically, my hands clenching into fists as my eyes widened. Everybody sat silent, the thick tension in the air suddenly brought on by the question was enough to be suffocating.

My parents.

I realized I hadnt told them much about them until now.

The memory really hurt, their deaths still vivid and fresh in my mind. I remebered everything, the blood, the screams and even the expressions on their faces as they fell to their deaths. I remembered my mother screaming my name as she fell, her hand outstretched to me.

I didnt catch her.

I visibly flinched.

"Im sorry, I shouldnt have asked" she said, her voice apologetic and slightly panicked.

I let out another shaky breath, fighting back tears at the still vivid memory. I unclenched my hand with some difficulty, flexing it. I took her hand in mine, intertwining our fingers together, surprising her. I stared at our joined hands, immediatly feeling the calm wash over me at her touch.

I smiled a little, still staring at our joined hands. "Im alright."

She looked at me, unshed tears in her eyes. "Im sorry" she murmured.

I shook my head at her. I brought her hand to my lips, kissing her fingers softly. I brushed my lips against her knuckles in a comforting gesture, closing my eyes as I did so. "Its alright, its not your fault"

I looked at her. I immediatly felt guilty, I shouldnt have overreacted and upset her like that. I leaned over slowly, kissing her cheek, my lips lingering on her skin longer than normal. She smelled like flowers, only more intense, and I smiled at the blush forming on her cheeks.

Just then I saw the mansion coming into view and I broke into a smile.

"I think were here" I said excitedly.

Everybodys eyes widened as they smiled, the question now forgotten.

As soon as the limo stopped, they flung the door open and jumped out, running and yelling like children as they ran to the house. I noticed even Wally was flailing his arms like a maniac as he ran around the giant property.

Zatanna and I laughed, gracefully stepping out of the limo, our fingers still twined together. We walked silently towards the house.

I kissed her hand again before I opened the door for her. "Ill tell you about them later" I whispered. I was promising her I would answer her question.

She smiled slightly, her blush intensifying at my actions. She sighed. "Alright"

"I'll show you around" I smiled, tugging at her hand. "Come on"

She laughed.
