I am so sorry for such a long break. Between getting engaged, school and Christmas things have been crazy! I am hoping to update more often. Read and review! XOXOX

After Kori was dropped off safely at home, Richard made his way to the BatCave. He slumped in the chair facing the wall of TVs that were showing security cameras.
" She's stronger than she looks." He heard a voice from the darkness behind him. Richard lifted his head.
"Yeah, she is." He said and then took a deep breath in, closing his eyes as he exhaled. Bruce came and stood next the the chair. He typed a few keys and the screens brought up footage from Wayne Enterprises earlier.
" Any idea?" He said
" I don't know who they were working for. But I assume that it's Jonathan."
" Why?"
" He knows that Robin has feelings for Kori. He saw, at the campus. He knows." Richard said through his gritted teeth. Bruce was silent. Richard was bracing himself for the lecture that he was certain Bruce was about to unleash.
" She's stronger than she looks." Bruce repeated," just be careful. Take care of her." He said and then walked away. Richard was in shock. Bruce had given his blessing on their relationship, in his own way. Richard replayed the men coming into the building a few more times, looking for a clue. He saw nothing that gave a hint of their employer. Their motive was clear, it was Richard and Kori.
He stood up, stretching his tired body. He flipped a switch to turn the monitors off and started to head upstairs.

After 6 hours of solid slumber Richard woke up from the sunlight streaming through his curtains and hitting his skin. He reached his arm to the table by his bed and checked his phone.
"Good morning! I hope that you slept well." He smiled, she was amazing. The events of last night flooded back into his head. He felt a pain of regret for putting her in danger.
"I hope you slept well. I'll call you later. Miss you." He sent back. He got up and got ready for his day. He has an important stock meeting and he needed to be on his A game.

A few hours his was standing, holding a door open and shaking hands while smiling to those exiting a large conference room. As the last man left, Richard went inside, letting the door close behind him.
" That was a great job you did there." Bruce said gathering his papers.
"Thanks." Richard replied as he sat down with a sigh of relief.
"Our investors are happy,thanks to you." Richard gave a tired smile. "You should go celebrate. Take the rest of the day."
Richard checked his watch. Kori would get out of class in 30 minutes. He hadn't called her yet, but he could meet her outside of class. He told Bruce "thanks" and headed it out.

As class was released Kori waited for the class to rush out before she made her way into the hallway. She was thinking about how she wanted Richard to call her, because he said he would, when she saw him waiting for her by the door. She smiled and quickened her pace to catch up with him. She hugged him before saying took her in his arms and sighed with relief. He was nervous that she might be afraid of him, or want to end things. Her first reaction being to reach out and touch him was comforting. He wanted her to be the first one to let go, because he wanted to hold on for as long as he could.
After a few minutes she loosened her grasp, " Are you busy tonight?"
"Nope. I'm all yours." He said, mentally slapping himself and hoping that Robin wouldn't be necessary.
" I would like to make you dinner. Quiet night in?" She looked at him with wide emerald eyes that made his heart melt. He kissed her forehead with a grin,
" Sounds perfect."
