Phoenix woke up to Robin staring at her with pleading eyes. His clothes were disgusting and so was John. He had a slight pouty lip and Phoenix bust out laughing.
"This isn't funny!" Robin insisted but smiled a little bit.
"What happened?" she asked.
"I was trying to feed him." he said.
"How is Wally with Nancy?" Phoenix asked.
"Better than I expected," Robin said. She nodded and got up placing her hands on her stomach. Robin smiled at her and left the room to get changed.
"I would give him a bath!" Phoenix called after Robin.
"Thank you!" he called back. She smiled and looked around the room. The sun was coming through the blinds and everything was exactly the way it was the night before. Phoenix picked up the phone and saw that she a missed call from Daddy Warbucks. She sighed and called him back.
"Hey, daddy," Phoenix said.
"Hey, I thought you were supposed to be back yesterday," Bruce said sounding slightly worried.
"I had a teeny motorcycle accident and I ran into Rob, not literally. Didn't I tell you that I was at Titan's tower?" she asked. Phoenix walked down the hall and to the bathroom.
"I think I would've remembered that," Bruce said. Dick mouthed 'who' and she mouthed back 'Bruce'. He wrinkled his nose and nodded.
"Well, it must have been someone else then," Phoenix said.
"Come home soon," Bruce said before hanging up. She rolled her eyes and set her phone down.
"What did he want?" Dick asked.
"For me to come home," Phoenix said.
"Are you going to?" he asked.
"Eventually," she said. After the bath, Dick and Phoenix were both soaking wet.
"I think we need a change of clothes." she said as both of them laughed.
"I'll ask Star to watch him." Dick said.
"You really like her don't you?" Phoenix asked.
"Nixie I'm in love with her." he said before walking towards her room. She smiled after her brother and shook her head slightly.
About a month later Dick and Wally had been given permission to take the kids out on their own. They went to the park and John and Nancy were running around together. They all had on costumes. John hid behind Dick giggling.
"Help me daddy!" he squealed as Nancy ran towards him, not using her speed. Dick grinned and swooped John up, kissing him on the cheek and causing him to giggle even more.
"Daddy!" he laughed. Wally swooped up his little girl tickling her and hanging her upside down.
"Dad!" Nancy practically shouted through fits of laughter. Phoenix smiled at them from her spot at the other end of the park. She placed her hands on her stomach where she had a baby bump. Pushing off of the tree she walked away happy that they were happy. Jason was not too far away in his Red-X uniform sadly watching them. He missed the little boy and, as much as he hated to admit it, he missed the little boy's father too.
"Can we race?" John asked standing at the top of two slides.
"Sounds fun," Dick said getting into position on one of them. John got on the one next to him and smiled. All of the bystanders were surprised to see the Teen Titans leader in such a childish mood. They slid down and Dick picked John up.
"Want Ice Cream and Pizza?" Dick asked.
"Yay!" John said.
"Oh now your just trying to be a better dad," Wally said jokingly. Dick grinned at his best friend happy that they were talking again.
"I love you, daddy," Nancy said kissing his cheek.
"I love you too," Wally said smiling and kissing her back. Of course, reporters were taking pictures but the two heroes ignored them and walked towards the Pizza Place. They got their usual table and pictures for the little kids to color. Wally and Dick ordered and as Nancy and John raced each other around the Pizza Place.
"John please be careful," Dick said as his little boy almost tripped. Wally caught Nancy and set her down next to him on the bench.
"Why don't we do this at the tower," Wally suggested.
"Okay," John said climbing up next to his dad. Dick smiled at the little boy that reminded him so much of himself, well at least who he used to be.
"He's like a mini you." Wally said. Dick nodded. His smile never fully disappearing. Ever since John had come into his life a month ago Dick had been back to his old self, like this is exactly what he was missing. John was a nice reminder of what he used to be and Phoenix was a tie to his past that he didn't want to lose ever again. Wally felt the same way about Nancy but he never lost who he was. Dick hadn't been team leader on the weekends because he put all of his energy into John on those days. He had to admit, it felt kind of good.
Later that night it was time for bed. Dick was tucking in John, softly kissing him on the head and telling him a bed time story like normal. Dick walked out smiling at the small boy that he still couldn't believe was his. The innocent child that the world had barely even dug into. Starfire flew over and smiled at her very content boyfriend. They kissed.
"Would you like to play the game of video?" she asked with her normal cheery attitude.
"I would love that." Dick said as the walked off towards the living room to play games. They ended up falling asleep wrapped around each other on the couch.
