Stephanie and Dick where in the Batcave, sitting on chairs, after a night of training.
''You can stay at the manor with us,'' smiled Dick.
Stephanie had lost everything last week. She had lost her job, which means that she didn't have money to pay her apartment. That's why she got kicked out.
''I don't know, Dick. I mean it's really nice but I don't want to be a weight on your shoulders''
''You already are,'' whispered a voice behind Dick's back.
Dick turned around to look at Damian. He gave Damian the naughtiest gaze he could. He then turned to look at Stephanie and took a water bottle that he opened.
''Don't listen to him. He's just grumpy because Bruce grounded him''
''No I am not! She is just a horrible Batgirl. She doesn't know how to fight and - ,'' started Damian.
''Ok, that is it Damian. Don't you have homework to do,'' cut of Dick.
Damian slowly walked toward the elevator while cursing in Arabic under his breath.
''Yeah, like I was saying, stay here please. Besides, I need an awesome girl like you to keep an eye on Damian when I'm out,'' smirked Dick.
''Keep an eye on Damian. More like Damian keeping an eye on me and my chest''
''You know guys when they hit puberty,'' teased Dick.
''I know… But Damian is just acting so weird. Like more than usually''
Dick started to laugh.
''Why are you laughing?''
''Oh. Ohhhh. You didn't know? ''
''Know what? What was I supposed to know? Tell me! Please tell me!''
''Damian is acting weird around you because he likes you. He has a crush on you''
''NO WAY! You mean this little brat likes me. Awnnnn. This is the cutest thing ever. I guess that explains what happened a few days ago''
''What happened a few days ago?'' asked Dick while taking a sip of his water bottle.
''Well, he got a boner''
Dick spitted all the water he had in his mouth. Damian. Damian Wayne got an erection from Stephanie Brown. Well who would have thought?
''How come,'' asked Dick.
''I made him touch my breast because he thought I was stuffing my bra''
''That explains. But seriously, you didn't know that Damian likes you? Man, you're blind''
''Well thank you. I'll pack my stuff tonight. Tomorrow night after my patrol, the manor will welcome a girl,'' smirked Stephanie.
After talking with Stephanie, Dick wanted to talk with Damian. After all, his crush will live with them. He was thinking of what he could say to the new bow wonder, but he didn't have to say anything. Damian was lying on his bed with his cat beside him. Dick came in without Damian's approval.
''Why did you offer to Brown to stay here? All that she is going to do is distract me, '' shouted Damian.
Dick sat on the edge of the bed.
''Because she needed somewhere to stay''
Damian sighed, he was furious. How could Dick take this decision without even asking for his approval?
''Damian. Look, you really need a female figure in your life. And Stephanie turns out to be one''
''I don't need a female figure in my life. I don't need Fatgirl,'' frowned Damian.
''Yes you do, you just don't know it yet. Look I know you like Stephanie and I know it's going to be hard for you to see her every day of your life, but she needed somewhere to stay. And that somewhere is here''
''I don't like her,'' shouted Damian like he didn't hear anything else that Dick said. ''She is weak, fat and a horrible batgirl. I don't want this wench anywhere near me ''
Puberty.
''Damian there's nothing to talk about. I have made my decision and Bruce approved it''
''Father… How could you trick me like that? How can you think Grayson is right,'' thought Damian.
''Anyway, I just wanted to tell you that she's coming tomorrow night, after your patrol,'' added Dick.
''Tomorrow night,'' repeated Damian.
''Yes tomorrow night. Find a way to put your anger toward her down. The last thing we need is a dead body. Good night Damian''
Dick slowly walked toward his room, like he was waiting for his little brother to say something. But he didn't.
''Tomorrow night,'' repeated Damian.
Damian went to sleep with Stephanie in his mind.
''Damn it,'' he whispered.
