Chapter 10- Diana

LOCATION: JUSTICE LEAUGE WATCHTOWER

Diana quietly sat at the watchtowers console while typing various coordinates into the massive circuit. If any computer were able to find Batman, it would be this one, state of the art thanks to the league's number one playboy billionaire supporter. (cough*Bruce*cough)

Sure, all league members were required to carry a global positioning system in case of distress or in need of back up, but this was Batman. Batman cuts nearly any tracking or tracing signal within 20 miles of him. But Diana knew better, she didn't just know Batman, she knew Bruce Wayne and anything to make him run out of a meeting- superhero or otherwise- had to be important.

It had to be Dick.

Diana settled on searching the hospitals admission records when Bruce Wayne was too sly to track.

Typing into the highlighted search bar Richard's full name (plus the last name Wayne for safe measure) she hit the search button and waited. Soon enough she was rewarded with her answer but it was not the one she was hoping for. Apparently Richard Grayson Wayne was checked into the Gotham General Hospital for a head trauma and severe blood loss.

Diana's frown deepened after every word she read and soon she couldn't take it anymore, she got up from the computer, put on her civilian clothes and headed straight for Gotham General.

Straight for the boy she loved like a son.

BREAKLINE. BREAKLINE. BREAKLINE. BREAKLINE. BREAKLINE. BREAKLINE. BREAKLINE. BREAKLINE.

LOCATION: GOTHAM GENERAL

Bruce sat there quietly, listening to the labored breathing of his son, it sounded like Dick had weights on his chest, causing it to rise and fall erratically. Other then that the hospital was deathly quiet, nearly all the nurses and doctors went home for the night, the exception being the ER and ICU doctors on call 24/7. After many hours of arguing with the doctors and refusing to leave his sons side they finally let him stay in the room with Richard for the night. And since this night was the most critical, Bruce wasn't going anywhere.

SO this was how Bruce ended up sitting in the most uncomfortable chair ever made, trying to get some sleep.

But only while directing his finely tuned ears towards his son in the event that he woke up. He would even occasionally open an eye or two to see if blue ones were looking back at him, but of course they weren't. They would just stay closed, sporadically darting back and forth under pale eyelids.

All Bruce could do was sit and wait in the poorly made chair and sulk, blaming himself mostly for Dick's current condition. He was so wrapped up in blaming himself he didn't hear the dainty telltale clicks of Diana's heels. In her panic she nearly passed the room they were in.

Back tracking and stopping at the door, Diana stared sadly at the sight and waited for Bruce to notice her, but he didn't he was 100% focused on Dick. He looked drained both physically and emotionally, mentally being weighted down by the burdens he placed upon himself nearly every night.

Trying to make her presence known the Amazon crept further into the room lowering her eyes to the floor and speaking a low but firm "Bruce."

His head snapped up but she could see by his glassy expression that his attention was still on Richard.

"Bruce?" She asked this time, not sure if he was back in reality yet.

"Diana." He almost whispered while lowering his eyes to Richard again.

"Why are you here?" He deadpanned.

"To help." Diana stated sadly, she wanted to be angry at Bruce for not telling them about Richard, she really did, but she couldn't find it in her heart to yell at the broken father sitting in front of her. All she wanted was to see him and Richard healthy and together again.

Bruce sighed "There's nothing to do now but wait."

"Then I shall wait as long as it takes." Diana added while grabbing a chair and setting it next to the Dark Knight.

After a long pause, Bruce was surprisingly the one to talk first. "You know it's funny," he started while staring lovingly at his son in an almost reminiscent way.

"What is?" Diana coaxed.

"Dick always finds a way to escape his death" Bruce scoffed darkly almost sarcastically, hatefully, "jumping from buildings, taking on the world's toughest criminals, fighting with his all might against evil, he's been there through it all with me, by my side, always, and the one time he needed me I wasn't there. Do you know how much it killed me for Alfred to tell me Dick was getting sicker and hiding it from me? How could I not even notice?" He asked in desperation, urgency leaking into his voice.

"My own son was sick and I tried to keep it in the shadows like everything else, because apparently that's how Batman does things." He continued hatefully.

"Bruce." Diana said sternly, demanding his full attention but only receiving a bowed head and a sorry gaze towards Dick.

"Bruce, look at me!" She repeated more forcefully while gripping his stern rugged face in her delicate hands.

"It is not your fault, Richard kept this from you, yes, but it is not a reason to keep hating yourself and taking it out on others. In a way you should be proud because Bruce, look at him he is just like you and has always looked up to you no matter what. And trust me he would not want you to be like this; he would want you to trust the people around you. Trust us Bruce. The league is here for you, the team is here for you and…I am here for you." She finished quietly only breaking direct eye contact at the very end, when staring at Bruce's sad but beautiful eyes became too much to bear.

"Diana…I.." Bruce tried but was interrupted by Diana crushing her lips to his.

It was a sweet kiss that Bruce had never thought he would experience. Sure, he and the amazon princess have had a thing for years but this was so sudden the world's greatest detective wasn't even able to fathom the rapid movement at the moment.

Diana tasted as sweet as her demeanor and all Bruce could think about for that split second was her love for him.

Him, of all people, the princess chose him. The crazy vigilante who ran around dressed as a bat and stuck to the shadows, which was the complete and utter opposite of the beaming charismatic princess who was lip-locked with him at that moment.

Finally, after what felt like an eternity they broke, breathlessly Diana scooped his face into her hands again and stared sadly but contently into his steel blue eyes. "I love you Bruce, and Dick loves you, heck even the team loves you! Just please, for Dick's sake don't be so hard on yourself." She finished by placing a kiss on his forehead, grabbing her jacket and saying something along the lines of "I'll go grab us some coffee." Leaving the Dark Knight absolutely speechless.

Slowly his eyes drifted back to Dick and leaned slightly towards the bed "I am so whelmed right now." He whispered softly to Dick with a smirk spread across his face.
