Damian was not having a good day to begin with, the stress was getting to him so bad that all he wanted to do was find a quiet place to sit in peace and blow off some steam on those training dummies. Unfortunately, Dick, who was constantly following him and trying to cheer him up was not helping him do that.

What had angered him in the first place? There was a list and it was already growing with Dick first on it. However, how it really started was a few months ago after Damian and Bruce had finished patrol and Bruce called the entire family to the living room including their newest family member, Wonder Woman, his new stepmother and rival.

Damian disliked her mainly because of the fact that his old way of life would be snatched from him and he would be replaced by Diana. He did admit that he noticed Diana did make his father a little bit happier but what happened after it only got worse from there.

Thanks to her everyone was losing their guard. Dick started calling her mom, Jason began training with her and even cursed less around her, and Tim had had trouble in math class for a while, he would have asked for his dad's help but with him being so busy with being Bruce Wayne and Batman Tim had no choice but to ask Diana who was very happy to help. Now she was his new tutor.

Thinking back to it now Damian remembered the day when his life changed forever. When his father gathered the family to the living room.

Bruce was smiling shyly while Diana held his hand and smiled brightly. Alfred looked at them proudly with his arms behind his back. Something Damian noticed Alfred never did often. Jason and Tim were giving Bruce angry glares since they had already gone to bed when the "meeting" started.

Dick was sitting next to Barbara with his arms wrapped around her body and grinning like a stupid clown (in Damian's opinion), and Cassandra and Stephanie were braiding each other's hair and chatting quietly to pass time, while Damian was hiding behind the stairway with earbuds stuffed in his ears.

"Attention everyone!" Bruce yelled out. Everyone's voices became quiet as Bruce opened his mouth to speak. "Everyone I have special news for you all!"

Damian took out one earbud and folded his arms together with a scowl.

"Come on Dami, cheer up." Dick whispered turning around to give Damian a grin. Already feeling irritated Damian growled and marched over to Dick to punch him on his head. Dick yelped out in pain.

Bruce gives a hard glare to both of them while Jason, who is impatient to get back into his comfy bed growls out, "Well Bruce what is it that's more important than me getting my beauty rest?" Bruce takes a deep breath and with a untamable smile says,

"We're having a baby."

Silence echoed out throughout the entire room. Jason and Tim snapped awake from dosing, Dick shot up from the couch and raced to give Bruce a big hug while laughing hysterically. He held on for a bit too long before Bruce started gasping.

"Huh Bruce? I can't hear you over the sound of pure joy of me finally having a little baby bird to help look after." He smiled blissfully.

"Dick let me go before I pass out." Bruce choked out. Diana couldn't hide her amusement any longer and burst out laughing at the sight of Batman being hugged to death.

"Oh Dick, let him go already so he can breathe." Diana giggled out.

Dick sighed and slowly let his arms slid away from Bruce's body. Barbara bounced up to Diana and gave her a massive hug.

"Oh I'm so happy for you and Bruce. Finally a baby in the house for once, I wonder if it's a boy or girl?

"I don't care I'll love him or her anyway." Dick announced. While Dick and Barbara were chatting with parents-to-be, Tim and Jason were sitting upward with their eyes wide in surprise until Damian broke the silence by slapping them both.

Jason stared at him infuriated. "What the hell was that for Damian?" Tim looked annoyed as well. "Yeah Damian, what was that for?"

But Damian wasn't paying attention; he was staring at Bruce and Diana with a sad frown on his face.

"Damian are you alright?" He quickly ran away from the room, up the stairs into his bedroom. Slamming the door shut he grabbed his pillow and began assaulting with punches.


Pushing that memory away to back of his mind, he turns over to the other side of his bed and comes face to face with Dick kneeling down closer to him.

"Are you okay little birdie?" Concern was evident on his face. "I'm fine." He scowled. "Now can you please go away I want to be alone right now."

But Dick didn't go right away. "Oh come on, aren't you excited that Bruce and Diana are finally coming home with your new baby boy—er well we don't know the gender yet but I think it's going to be boy, I'm bettin $50 on it." Dick winked.

"No, but of course it comes to no surprise you would would waste your money on frivolous things like betting on a baby. Now go away please before I dismember you with a knife."

Dick shakes his head and looks back at Damian. From where Dick was sitting he could tell Damian was not happy about the new arrival. Damian was sitting on his bed with his hands folded and legs crossed and his head leaning on a pillow with an irritated look on his face.

"You don't really mean that threat earlier do you?" A small but visible vein popped on Damian's forehead. "Yes I do, now get out!"

Finally Dick gave up.

He stood from where he was kneeling down and turned to leave but stopped when he decided to ask one last question.

"Damian are you jealous of the new baby? Damian eyebrows were raised in surprise.

"What? No, of course not."

Suddenly the doorbell rang, and Tim crashed through the door and was out of breathe because he ran up the stairs.

"They're here...Bruce...and Diana...with the baby." He wheezed his hands gripping his knees. He paused to take a breathe and then looked between Dick and Damian with a concerned look. "Are you two alright?"

Dick plastered a fake smile on his face and said through clenched teeth. "Never been better." Damian got up from his bed and muttered, "I'm fine." Forcing his way betwen Dick and Tim out the door.

"You're sure he's okay?" Tim asked again. Only Dick's glare shut him up.


"Are you sure your okay Diana? Your not feeling dizzy or fatigued?" Diana rolled her eyes for what was like the millionth time.

Even since the couple had left the hospital it seemed Bruce was more concerned for Diana more than he usually did. It wasn't that he didn't worry about her on a daily basis but he seemed to have worry written everywhere on his face the more Diana stared at it.

"Great Hera Bruce I am fine really, but look your holding the baby wrong." Diana watched as Bruce shifted his arm to hold the baby tighter. Observing as the baby as it sleep in the pink blanket the nurse gave them. She smiled softly realizing she finally had the family s!he always wanted.

"It took me a lot of strength to get you, did you know that darling?" Diana whispered to the baby.

Bruce felt guilty for bothering Diana about her wellbeing but he had gone through too much stress at the hospital. After Diana went into labor she had lost too much blood and was very afraid of him becoming a widow and the newborn motherless. But by a miracle she survived. Maybe she really was his Wonder Woman.

"Sorry princess." Bruce said sincerely. "I'm only looking out for you."

Diana smiled and kissed him softly on the cheek. The baby began to whimper just as they walked to the front of their door. Diana pulled her winter coat tightly around her.

Raising her hand Diana rings the doorbell gripping Bruce's hand tightly. Alfred quickly opens the door and his eyes widened at the sight of his surrogate son holding a baby.

"Oh my word." He whispers.

He steps aside to give them room to enter. "Please do come in Master Bruce." Bruce nods at him as thanks.

"Guys we're home!" Bruce shouts as he comes in with Diana walking behind him.

Jason, Tim and Alfred are the first to greet them. "Hey Dad, Mom and...baby?" Tim's eyes widened at the sight of the newborn. "It's beautiful, is it a boy or a girl?" Tim asked.

"It's a girl, but we haven't decided on a name yet." Bruce added.

Jason fist pumped in the air and yelled 'yes' loudly but was quickly hushed by everyone else.

"Sorry but I actually won a bet over what the baby's gender might be and Dick owes me $50 bucks."

Bruce had a grim look. "Please tell me you didn't scam people into giving you their money while I was gone Jason?"

Jason looked offended. "So now I'm a thief because I tried to make a honest living by selling furniture!?" Bruce frowned even more remembering how Jason sold almost all of the manor's furniture after everyone thought Bruce was actually dead. It had taken months to track it all back, some he was still looking for.

"Those had been in my family for generations! Ugh...why am I evening arguing with you over this now." Bruce exclaimed. Tim reached out and touched the baby's soft head. "It feels so nice." Tim said.

Alfred wiped a tear from his eye. "Master Bruce your parents would be proud of you, it's only sad they aren't here to see her." Bruce smiled sadly and nodded his head in agreement. Turning to Diana he placed the baby into her arms before giving Tim's hair a tousle.

"Where's everyone?" Diana asked. "In the living room, I think even Clark said he would be coming. And Dick and the demon is upstairs." Jason reported while jerking his thumb in the direction of the staircase.

"Oh! And we even got cake and it says 'Welcome Home Baby'. Gushed Tim.

"I made it sir with your favorite flavor, chocolate which I will hope the baby will learn to love also now that I have a grandchild." Alfred said proudly.

"Whoa Alfred. Using that term already?" Jason joked. "Can we go into the kitchen now, I'm hungry." Whined Tim.

"Alright jeez kiddo calm down. You know we could have just stayed one more night at the hospital and you could have gone another day without you precious cake." Bruce said slightly annoyed.

"Bruce!" Diana shouted.

"What!" The others stopped and looked back at Diana. "She's waking up." She whispers as she slowly sat down on the nearest couch and everyone gathered around her to see the small baby slowly open her eyes.

"She has blue eyes." Observed Jason. "Just like her parents, ain't that something." The little baby's eyes fully opened and she started to look around to see her new family. For a moment she seemed to try to smile before yawning and falling asleep.

Slowly Bruce reached forward and kissed the baby on her soft, bald head.

"Welcome to the family." Whispered Bruce.
