Summary: Chalant Fluff. Takes place a little after Performance. Super short, I just kinda wanted to write something less serious and plot-driven

Disclaimer: I don't own DC

The team had been deployed to a mission to stop a rogue terrorist group from bombing a UN meeting held in New York, and Robin and Zatanna were left on guard duty outside should a sniper show up. The others were busy patrolling other sectors. And it was freezing.

"M-man, it's actually r-really cold right now."

"W-well it is Christmas time. P-plus New York. C-cold is kinda a standard here." Dick nodded. Zatanna used to live here before moving to Gotham a few years ago, so she probably had experience with the cold. He himself had experience with freezing temperatures in Gotham, but this was somehow worse. Man, this is seriously ice cold! I swear, even Freeze doesn't chill me this much! I guess I could ask her for a heat spell, but I don't wanna bug her. She might need her energy later. Dick and Zatanna were sitting on a rooftop bench relatively close to one another, and of course Dick's...teenage body was over the moon at their close proximity. However, this was not the ideal temperature for him to be spending time with the raven-haired beauty, and she clearly felt the same way.

A sudden breeze blew through the air, and Zatanna slightly jumped at the stinging cold. "S-sorry. I d-don't remember it being this cold." Dick nodded, and they subconsciously moved closer to one another till they were practically mushed together. They didn't even notice until Dick turned to look at Zee and her hair practically buried his face. Heat rose to both their cheeks, and they scooted a tiny bit away from each other, though not too much as they still enjoyed both the close proximity to one another and the body heat the other was radiating. Another cold breeze blew past them, and at this point Dick was seriously regretting having short sleeves on his uniform. Bet her fishnets aren't much better. Her legs look like they're seriously freezing. Dick's face reddened even further as he noticed he was staring at Zatanna's legs, and he tore his eyes off them. Yet another breeze, this one much worse, made Zatanna furiously shiver, and Dick instinctively wrapped his arm around her shoulder to try to warm her up, his cape draped over both of them, wrapping them up next to each other as if they were gift-wrapped together.

"T-thanks." Both of them were tomato red, but neither wanted to break their current position. Dick remembered his suit had built-in thermal weave designed specifically to keep him safe from Freeze's blasts, but he also knew it was a one-time usage before needing recharge, and he wasn't supposed to waste it on something as trivial as staying warm outside. Well, it is SERIOUSLY cold. That WOULD hinder my combat abilities if I'm not at peak performance. Plus, I would be helping Zee. So not completely for my own benefit. Oh who am I kidding, this is SO for my own benefit. Dick pressed a button on his gauntlet to activate the thermal weave, and he and Zee suddenly felt like they were under blankets as his tunic and cape started to heat up. Alright, slow-burn feature should last us about 10 minutes. Zatanna blushed furiously at first since she didn't know why he was so...warm, and she looked at him somewhat confusedly.

"Uh, s-suit has thermal-threading. I-I'm not s-s-supposed to use it for this, b-but it's pretty c-cold." Both of them were still redder than Wally's hair, but neither complained. Zatanna smiled as she started to fall asleep, resting her head on Dick's shoulder. This is really nice. Dick let a grin appear on his face as Zee rested her head on him, and he himself started to doze off, placing his own head on top of her's. This is really nice.

"DUDE, FOR THE LAST TIME, WHERE ARE YOU?!" Dick jumped awake as Wally practically yelled into his comm, his sudden movements waking Zatanna. Their faces were once again burning up as they stood up. He noticed that the thermal charge had worn out almost 20 minutes ago, and his blush only deepened as he realized he and Zatanna had been cuddling with each other for nearly 30 minutes. The disheveled duo rushed off to where their teammates were calling for backup.

"W-we're on our way."

"Finally! Look, I know you two got the hots for each other, but can you PLEASE stop making out when we're busy with this stuff?!"

"Sh-shut up, Wally."

Again, this was super short, but I just wanted to write a less serious or moody chapter. There are 2 more Chalant fluffs coming up(maybe more cuz I'm getting some more ideas for these ones and they're really fun to write), then most likely some form of Dick/Connor bonding, though I may delay that until after Auld Acquaintance. Feel free to review and leave comments or suggestions. Next chapter up soon.
