Chapter 13.

Worried.

Alexis's Pov.

It's been a while since Halloween and now Christmas is closing in and ever since Halloween Dick had not pulled a single prank on me, which I was eternally grateful for. But it also made me realize how much power you have in this household if you had Alfred on your side, I mean both dad and Dick have a huge amount of respect for him. Not that I can say that I don't, Alfred has the most power in this house. Although he's not really scary at all unless you piss him off which in turn would be the stupidest move that you could make. As to what's going on with me, well currently I was at Katrina's house studying for this dumbass math test, just because I got straight A+ does not mean I don't have trouble with the subject. Which is why I was at Katrina's she was absolutely amazing at math although I don't think we are gonna get much studying done, not with the way that she is right now.

"I just don't understand how you can focus on math right now. I mean did you not see the way Oliver looked at you"

I just sighed and put my math book down and tilted my head back. Yeah as you can hear from her tone Oliver was a big deal, well in our school anyway. No, he wasn't a football jock, no he was a pompous snobby rich kid from England who moved with his family to Gotham about a year ago, ever since he started at Gotham Private he had been nothing but a huge dick to basically everyone around him. Not that it was a lot different from the others in the school, he was just more of a dick really. He would usually flirt with every girl in a 20-meter radius, however lately he has apparently been more obsessed with me, and I am not over exaggeration. Katrina apparently saw him making goo-goo eyes at me and now she won't stop talking about it and it's driving me nuts. I just wanted to study god damn it.

"Can we not talk about this and just focus on this math instead"

"No, absolutely not. I mean this is huge!" She said as she took my math book and threw it aside.

"Seriously Kat"

"Hell yeah I'm serious"

"Look he's an asshole with too much money stuck so high up his ass that it has replaced his brain, besides I am far from the only girl he has had an eye for"

"Well not that I don't agree with you on that, but what are you gonna do about him?"

"Well ignoring him is working great so far"

"You know at one point he is gonna make a move, what are you gonna do then?"

"I know but I'll deal with that when it comes. Now can we focus on our homework" I said picking up my math book again and flipping back to the page we were on.

"Fine but we are not done talking about this yet"

I just let out a small chuckle, and we continued with the boring homework.

Timeskip~

After I left Katrina's I left for the Gotham library to do some research. I walked over to the bookshelf and pulled a few books down and walked over to the library computer and started researching again. Ever since I had that weird dream I began reaching on what it meant, but so far the only thing I found was that I could be a seer or an oracle, which I highly doubt but there's no question that it is strange. I still haven't told dad a or anyone about it, I didn't want them to worry they already have so much on their hands I don't need to make it worse. I yawned and looked at the time… 19:00…

"Oh fuck!"

I yelled out but I was instantly silenced by the librarian. If you asking why the library was still open, well they were open till 20:00 so yeah that's why. I quickly grabbed my stuff and almost ran out the doors and called a taxi. I took out my phone to call Alfred and apologize for not calling sooner and telling them where I was, god they must be worried sick. I just hope dad and Dick didn't start searching the city to find me. We finally arrived at the manor, I hurried and paid the taxi driver for driving me. I ran over to the gate and used the "doorbell" and after a few minutes, Alfred finally answered.

"Yes, whom am I speaking with?"

"Hey, Alfred~"

You could clearly hear the nervosity in my voice, there was a short pause until he spoke again"

"Miss Alex where have you been, we have been worried sick!"

I let out a nervous chuckle and replied.

"I'm so so very and dearly sorry Alfred. I was at the library and I'm afraid I lost track of time"

There was a quiet pause again and then the gates opened as. I ran up to the main door and there was Alfred just waiting for me,

"You are extremely late for dinner"

He said clearly angry with me, I just looked at the ground shuffling my feet a little.

"Master Bruce is quite angry with you"

He said as he stepped aside to let me pass. I walked in still looking at the ground, I might be 15 years old but that doesn't mean I can't admit when I've done something wrong. I saw dad and Dick sitting on the big couch in the living room. As I walked in the minute Dick looked up he ran to me and hugged me. At first, it shocked me, but then the thought dawned on me. He thought something had happened to me, he might even have thought I was dead. I quickly wrapped my arms around him and hugged him back, I could feel something wet on my shirt, Dick was crying and it was my fault. I looked at dad who looked a mix between anger and relief. Slowly Dick unwrapped his arms from me and used the sleeve of his shirt to wipe away his tears.

"Hey, I'm okay I promise. I just got lost in the books and forgot to call home"

He sniffed and let out a small smile and nodded. I ruffled his hair and I was about to go apologies to my dad but before I knew it I was wrapped in another hug.

"Don't you ever dare to worry us like that again"

He whispered stern but soft to me and he let go of me and kissed me on the forehead I just smiled.

I know it's short I'm sorry!

Yeah I know I said there would be a chapter sometime in November but than this thing called Brobygning I happening on my school and it kinda takes up a lot of time so I'm quite busy meaning that it's hard to work on new chapters so there will be a few shorter chapters for a while...sorry. But I will try to upload once a month like I promised.

Misker Out.
