GOTHAM CITY
DECEMBER 1, 2010
06:17 EST

I grinned mischievously to myself, slowly opening the door to Dick's room. I saw the familiar lump on the dark blue, silk sheets.

I pushed open the rest of the door, and ran towards the bed. I leapt into the air in the direction of the clump under the sheets, but let out a squeal as Dick suddenly popped up from under the sheets, pinning me to the bed. My green eyes widened in shock as Dick grinned down at me, mirroring the mischievous look I had a few seconds ago.

"Wh-what?" I stuttered out in shock. My jaw dropped in disbelief as I realized what he did. "You jerk!" I slapped his hard, firm shoulder.

Dick's bottom lip jutted out, pouting towards me. "You're the one that was going to jump me. That's only gonna work once, babe."

I grunted as I moved my lower body under him and flipped him over. His back and head sunk into the bed as I grinned triumphantly. "Pinned ya!"

He grabbed my shoulders and rolled me over. "Guess again, V."

We continued to roll around on the bed before I felt myself roll off the bed. I braced myself for the impact, but then Dick rolled me over at the last second.

"Oof!" Dick choked out when we landed in a clump on the ground. I flushed as Dick pulled me close to him. In return, he gave me a grin that made my heart skip multiple times. "Hey there."

My cheeks flushed and I dared to look at him. I felt the air escape me as I looked deep into his eyes. They sparkled at me with so much emotion. I could see the adoration in them, and I wondered why I never saw it before. "Hi…" I replied quietly, suddenly feeling incredibly shy.

Dick chuckled, his chest rumbling and making me bounce slightly before moving his head up. I pushed myself off him slightly, and looked down at him, my hair falling like a curtain around our heads.

His blue-grey eyes sparkled, drawing me in. A smile seemed like it was permanently plastered on his face and I moved closer to him. I captured his lips, pressing softly against them.

I smiled against his lips before pulling back. "Let's get you up, birthday boy. Your party guests will be here in an hour or so."

"It's six AM, V," Dick groaned, throwing his head back onto the plush carpet. "Who's coming at seven in the freaking morning?"

"Our trio of best friends," I replied happily. "Roy and Wally Zeta'd to Manhattan earlier and they picked up Kyle. They're on their way here by car."

Dick heaved a heavy sigh and I got off of him, brushing out the wrinkles in my clothes. I was dressed in a long-sleeved royal blue blouse that had a v-neck line, and a pair of black skinny jeans. Don't' ask me what brand they were, because I honestly have no idea. Though, I do know that my black ankle boots are from Steve Madden.

"I'll start on breakfast. Anything you fancy?" I asked, heading to the door.

"You," Dick grinned from where he sat on the ground.

"That's a bit too Wally," I rolled my eyes. "I did make some homemade granola cereal though… I guess I'll just give it all to Wally then…"

"Not a chance!" Dick exclaimed, running to his bathroom, slamming the door shut. "Be down in five!" he called, his voice muffled by the door.

I rolled my eyes. Of course, Verena. Cereal is a way to get Dick moving. Yeah, don't come between the boy and his cereal. He loves it. Especially my homemade ones.

I skipped downstairs and headed into the dining room, where Alfred was placing the cereal I had into a bowl for Dick. "Morning, Alfred! Morning, Bruce!"

"Good morning, Miss Verena," Alfred replied, holding a pitcher of cold milk. "Will Master Dick be down shortly?"

"Three minutes," I replied.

"Good morning, Verena," Bruce replied from behind his newspaper. An empty bowl was in front of him. "Breakfast was delicious."

"Thank you," I chirped happily. I took my usual seat on the left of Bruce and filled up my bowl of cereal with milk just as Dick came bustling down.

"Morning Alfie, Bruce!" he greeted.

"Good morning and happy birthday, Master Dick," Alfred greeted, smiling softly.

"Happy birthday, Dick," Bruce said, placing his newspaper down.

Dick smiled and walked over to his usual seat across from me and sat down. He looked down at his bowl happily before grabbing the pitcher and pouring milk.

He took a hefty bite and let out a groan. "Oh man, that's good…" he sighed. "I'm marrying you and we're going to have two-point-five children and you can cook for us every day."

I rolled my eyes. He always said that when I made him cereal for breakfast.

"I have some meetings to be at today," Bruce informed us. "But I'll try to make it back on time for your party, alright?"

Dick nodded his head, a small smile appearing on his face. "Yeah."

I looked around, searching for my little furry companion. "Where's Andrei, Alfred?"

Alfred cleared his throat. "He was scurrying across the fields about half an hour ago. He should be coming back soon. I've spotted some mice out yesterday."

I heard a dooking sound and spotted something brown and white dash across the room. Ah, there he was.

I felt something scratching my leg before Andrei popped out from underneath the tablecloth and onto my lap. "Morning, Andrei," I cooed, petting his soft fur.

Andrei dooked quietly, rubbing against my hand. He walked around in a few circles before climbing up my chest and then taking his place on my left shoulder.

"Morning, Andrei," Dick greeted.

Andrei dooked, his head bobbing up in down in greeting. Bruce got up, folding his newspaper and then petted Andrei. He gave me a peck on the cheek and patted a hand on Dick's shoulder before leaving the room. Alfred grabbed Bruce's bowl and empty cup, and left the room, leaving Dick, Andrei, and me.

The two of us quickly finished breakfast, with me doing the dishes quickly while Dick played with Andrei.

I found the two in the television room, with Dick on the ground on his stomach, holding a bungee toy towards Andrei. Andrei let out a series of growls, pouncing multiple times.

Andrei must've heard me come in, because his attention turned away from the toy. He scurried over to me and climbed up me quickly, resting on my right shoulder.

Dick sat up, crossing his legs. "Andrei's really attached to you…"

"He is," I agreed, nodding my head. "I love him." I leaned down and gave Dick a peck on the lips. "Thanks for giving him to me." I pressed my lips against his again.

"Anything for you," he muttered against my lips, snaking his arms around my waist. He pulled me down so I fell onto his lap.

"Dudes, whoa. PDA, much?"

I pulled away from Dick and turned. Wally was standing with his arms crossed, a smirk on his face, with Kyle and Roy on either side of him. Kyle had a grin on his face while Roy looked rather impassive.

Andrei made a beeline towards the males, dooking quite happily.

"Hey!" Wally greeted happily. "Andrei, buddy!" The speedster picked him up and tossed him gently in the air. "What's up?!"

"There's some homemade cereal in the kitchen," I informed them. "Help yourselves."

"Sweet!" Wally and Kyle exclaimed before rushing off.

Andrei was still with Wally so I yelled after him, "If Andrei wants to leave, just let him go!" He comes back when he feels like it.

"Happy birthday, Dick," Roy said, walking up to Dick.

Dick stood up and they did their weird man-handshake-hug thing. I stood up and brushed the nonexistent dirt off my clothes – hey, this is Alfred we're talking about – before hugging Roy.

"Morning, Roy," I greeted.

"Morning," Roy responded, squeezing me once in reply before letting go of me.

"So what are our plans for today?" Dick inquired as the three of us headed to the kitchen.

"That's a really good question," I commented, pushing open the door to the kitchen.

As expected, Wally and Kyle were sitting at the island, munching happily on cereal. Andrei was gone, so I suspected that he either went to sleep or outside to eat some more. At least we don't have to worry about a rodent problem with Andrei around…

"You didn't plan anything?" Dick arched a brow at me.

"Whatever you wanna do," I grinned, looking at Dick. "But we gotta be back by five. Your guests arrive then."

"We should have a gaming marathon then," Wally grinned after swallowing his food. "Fighting games, first-person shooters, adventures… all apply."

"We all know who's going to win first-person shooters, Wally," I rolled my eyes.

Kyle swallowed his mouthful. "How are you so good at those but suck at everything else?"

"I'm not that bad at other games," I frowned.

"Beautiful, you button-mash. If you win, it's just pure luck. … But even then, your luck's good most of the time. What the hell?!"

"You do," Dick added, nodding his head in agreement. I gave him a punch. "Ow!"

"Be happy I'm not punching you fourteen times," I half-sneered. They were telling the truth.

"I'm your boyfriend and your brother," Dick shrugged. "It's better to tell the truth than to lie."

"I just realized how wrong that is," Wally commented, furrowing his eyebrows together. "You guys are siblings."

"You're the one that's always pushing them together," Roy commented, leaning against a wall. He crossed his arms over his chest and stood on one foot while the other rested against the wall. "You probably should've thought about that first."

"Yeah," Wally agreed, nodding his head. "Oh well. It's not like you guys are blood-related. Hell, Bruce could've been playing matchmaker."

"If anything, Bruce needs the matchmaker," I commented. "He hasn't had anyone since… Talia." I frowned at the mention of her name. I did not like her. Good riddance for him dumping Talia like a boss.

"Who's Talia?" Kyle inquired, cocking his head to the side. "And wasn't he with someone a couple days ago? What's-her-name…"

"That was just a date," Dick and I said at the same time, brushing it off easily. He had one-too-many of those.

"Talia was Bruce's ex," Dick said.

"Not very nice," I frowned.

"Why'd he go out with her if she wasn't very nice?" Kyle quirked an eyebrow at us.

"She was hot," Roy, Wally, and Dick answered at the same time. I rolled my eyes. Boys. Didn't matter if she was evil or not. If she was hot, she was hot.

After Kyle and Wally finished pigging out, they cleaned up before we all went to the entertainment room, where our barrage of game systems were held. As we were setting up for the first game, my phone began to vibrate.

I looked down at the caller ID, and saw that it was Unknown. I frowned. Even if I didn't have the number installed, my WayneTech system should've identified whose phone it was.

I excused myself and walked out of the room for some privacy.

"Hello?" I answered, slightly guarded.

"Ah, good morning, Verena, dear. How is your boyfriend's birthday going so far?"

I narrowed my eyes. "How'd you get this number?"

"I have my ways. Regardless, it's Robin's fourteenth birthday today, is it not? Or should I call him Dick?"

"You better not be planning anything," I warned. I could just imagine him sitting in his… lair, planning something to ruin us.

"Relax, my child," he attempted to coo, but sounded like a sneer. "Nothing will happen to you or the Boy Wonder… or The World's Greatest Detective today. I'm just calling to remind you of our meeting on the thirtieth."

"I'll be there," I snarled. "So stop reminding me." I hung up, slipping the phone into my pocket. I had talked long enough to trace, but what was the point? He could slip away just as easily as I could trace.

I walked back into the entertainment room, and Dick caught my eyes. 'Everything alright?'

I sighed mentally, shaking my head ever the slightest. 'It was him.'

Dick narrowed his eyes, handing Wally a cable. 'About?'

'The thirtieth,' I responded before breaking eye contact with him.

For the rest of the day, we played multiple games on the game systems. I, of course, took the first-person-shooting challenge while Dick swiped the rest easily. He was in the zone today, and wasn't giving anyone mercy. Including me. Good.

There was some throat clearing and Wally paused the Mario Kart came he and Kyle were playing. Alfred was standing at the door. "Your first few guests have arrived."

Wally un-paused and continued to play against Kyle while Dick and I got up like the gracious hosts that we were.

I found that it was a lot easier just hanging out in the foyer, waiting for the guests to arrive instead of in the entertainment room, where everyone else was. But it got boring… real fast.

The door knocked again and Alfred opened the door. I caught a glimpse of who was behind the door, and Dick rushed over.

"Bette! Artemis! I'm glad you came!" he exclaimed happily. He ushered them in and I smiled in greeting.

We led them to the entertainment room and Dick announced, "The party's in here."

"Wow…" Bette gaped, while Artemis nodded in astonishment.

"Your foster father doesn't do anything halfway, does he?" Artemis inquired.

"You have no idea," Dick and I responded. "Foosball game?"

"I'll pair up with Artemis!" I exclaimed.

"Uh… okay," Artemis agreed. The four of us walked over to the now-empty foosball table. Bette paired up with Dick, and we started the game.

It only took about two minutes, but I managed to score.

"Yes!" I exclaimed, throwing a high five towards Artemis.

"Girl, you're on fire!" Artemis gaped.

"Please, I always beat him at this game," I rolled my eyes.

"Always?" Bette inquired.

"She's like, ridiculously good at pretty much everything," Wally chuckled, coming up from behind them. He grinned at Bette. "Hey there, my name's–"

"Wally?!" Artemis gaped, looking at the speedster. "What are you doing here?"

Wally turned to Artemis and blinked. "I'm a friend of Dick's and Verena's." He waved around. "Y'know, nephew of Iris West-Allen? I'm like, her favorite nephew."

"You're her only nephew," Roy rolled his eyes, coming up with Kyle.

"Roy too?" Artemis gaped.

Roy arched an eyebrow at Artemis.

"Ooh! There's Barbara!" Bette exclaimed. "I'll be back, Artemis!" She danced off to where one of my best friends was. I wasn't sure if she was uncomfortable with what was going on, or she really did want to see Barbara.

"In case you've forgotten," Roy said, looking at Artemis. "Oliver Queen is my foster father. You know, head of Queen Industries? We're kind of in the same social circle."

"You confused?" Kyle whisper-asked me.

"Not really," I shook my head. "It's a bit of an inside thing."

Kyle frowned, but nodded. "Understand. I've got some inside things with some friends from university too." I felt sad that we had to hide our identities from Kyle. He was a really great friend, even though we just met a few months ago.

"Who wants pizza?!" I heard Bruce exclaim through the boisterous cheers of teenagers.

"You ordered pizza?" Dick whirled around to see Alfred and Bruce.

"Don't be ridiculous, Master Dick," Alfred admonished. "I simply ordered the boxes. I made the pizzas."

Leave it to Alfred to do that.

Alfred placed the boxes of pizza in a neat order on the empty pool table, and kids immediately surrounded it. Kyle and Wally were the first ones there, and were quickly piling up their paper plates. Oh dear.

"I'm kinda surprised you're not in Dhabar…" Dick commented, as we approached Bruce.

"I'm not surprised you decided to hack my files again," Bruce responded, eyes twinkling. "I wouldn't miss your birthday, Dick. Besides… Dhabar's covered. Now go off and have some fun before Wally inhales the rest of the pizza."

With one last smile to Bruce, the two of us went over to the now clearing-up pool table, and quickly grabbed two slices of the supreme pizza.

"Let's get some air," Dick commented, looking at me. "I haven't had any alone time with you."

I smiled at him and we left the entertainment room, heading out to the back of the mansion.

"I kinda wish our jobs were more… open," Dick commented. "I feel pretty bad lying by omission with Kyle and Babs." He took a bite of his pizza before chewing quietly.

I leaned against him quietly, resting my head on his shoulder while I ate my pizza quietly as well. Once we finished, I took a sip of the water bottle I had swiped on the way out. I downed half of it before handing the rest to Dick, who drank the rest.

He then placed the empty bottle and plates to the side on a table before grabbing me, pulling me to his chest.

"The job's dangerous, but I'm glad you're in it," Dick said quietly, looking down at me.

"I can take care of myself," I told him. "Don't worry about me."

"Easier said than done when there are guys with lasers and missiles," Dick chuckled. "But I know. You can kick my butt any time."

"It is a nice butt to kick," I joked. Well, it is a nice butt, but not to kick. Oh God. I'm hanging out with Kyle and Wally too much.

Dick chuckled. "You do realize I can tell what you're thinking, right?" He gave me a cheeky grin.

I flushed slightly and buried my face into his chest, while I felt his chest rumble with laughter.

"I love you," I sighed as we broke apart. Dick's bright blue eyes widened at that revelation and mine did as well. I slapped my mouth in horror. Oh God. Did I just say that out loud?

Dick let out a chuckle, his eyes morphing back into his usual cheery blue-grey. "Yes, yes you did," he told me before pulling me close to him.

"I wanted it to be special when I said it," I mumbled, my voice muffled by his jacket.

Dick's arms tightened around me and I pulled back slightly. Something wet landed on my nose, catching my attention. Dick and I looked up and saw snowflake after snowflake fall from the dark clouds above us.

I looked back at Dick and saw him smiling down at me, with a rather intense, focused look in his eyes. "You said it, that's special enough for me," he began. "It being on my birthday and on the first snowfall just gave it a bonus."

My cheeks flushed, and it wasn't because of the cold weather. Dick chuckled, pulling me close to him before kissing me, framing both sides of my face with his frozen hands.

We pulled away from each other and our hot breaths clashed as our foreheads leaned against each other. "I love you…" Dick said softly, before pulling me into another kiss as the snow continued to fall around us.

I smiled into the kiss widely, and I could feel Dick's chest rumble as he chuckled softly into my mouth. His arms tightened around my waist, pulling me closer to him as possible, and I threw my arms around his neck, holding him close to me.

Next Time on Black Falcon:

"You're joining the Team?!" I asked excitedly.

Cheshire kissing Roy?

"Since I obviously can't be trusted, you track her."

"Well, that was a bust," I frowned. Red Arrow tossed me a sour look and I smiled back.

"We all have our own secrets to keep, Roy."
