I awoke in a strange bed. I was in a hospital. Grayson was asleep in the chair next to the bed. Tim was asleep in a chair by the corner, and Jason was asleep leaning against the wall. I looked for Father but he wasn't in the room.
I sat up and took the IV tubes out of my arms. I never liked the hospital. The doctors where always so, worried or happy. Those emotions shouldn't go together. And the hospital smells.
A bunch of alarms went off and everyone woke up with a start. Doctors and nurses came rushing in and I just stood there.
"Damian you need to lay down. Your not ready to leave." Grayson said urging me to sit down.
"I do not wish to stay here any longer." I said then started to walk toward the door.
Jason blocked my way. "Sorry little bird. You aren't going anywhere for another twenty-four hours. Doctor's orders."
"The doctor does not order me to to anything." I said trying to push past him. I realised too late that my foot was in a cast. How I missed that I have no idea. I looked down at my foot confused. "What happened to my foot?"
"When we found you, your foot was broken. You also didn't notice that your arm is in a sling. Did you?" Tim said.
I looked at my arm. "How did that even happen?" I asked. I don't remember breaking my foot or my arm.
"Buddy please. Lie down." Grayson begged.
"Where is Father?" I asked.
"He... just left." Tim said.
"He didn't come. Don't lie to me." I said, walking to the bed. I sat down and looked at Grayson. "Grayson, please. Did Father come?" I asked.
"No. He didn't come to visit you. He called yesterday to see if you were all right. He will be home tomorrow when we go home." Grayson said.
"Okay I think I would feel better if these people weren't here." I said.
Grayson nodded to the doctors and nurses and they left.
"Thank you Grayson." I said then lied on my side.
"You called me by my first name twice yesterday. Do you remember that? Why do you call me Grayson." He seemed emotional again.
"I show it as a sign of respect to some. Tim is sometimes Drake, and Jason has very rarely been known as Todd. But I show my respect FOR him in my belief OF him." I said. I guess what I said was taken to heart because each one of them looked shocked.
"Wow, you really respect me?" Jason said.
"I guess. And Tim isn't too bad. I mean sure we argue all the time but that's because I know he can take anything I throw at him." The words kept flying out of my mouth. I don't know if I was drugged but I really needed to tell them more.
"Well thanks for that." Tim said.
"And Grayson, well you are my father. Bruce doesn't care for me and he never really takes care of me. You take care of all of us. Especially Jason. None of us would amount to anything without my your guidance." When I finished talking my head started spinning and the last thing g I heard was Grayson, Tim, and Jason all call out my name.
