GONE FOREVER

I can't believe he's gone. I didn't want to believe it so the only thing I could do was head to the first bar I saw and drown my thoughts. Jason soon joined once he found me. By then I had already drank four beers.

"Dick you gotta stop. If it's coming from me then you should probably listen."

"I don't know what's going on, I don't know what went wrong. It feels like a hundred years I still can't believe he's gone."

"You can't drown yourself in beer though. Believe me, I've tried."

"So I'll stay up all night with these bloodshot eyes."

"You can't turn into Bruce though."

"All the walls surround me with the story of our life though."

"He wasn't there for long."

"I feel so much better now that he's gone forever. I don't miss him at all."

"You don't actually feel better. You're denying it, Dick."

"Now things are coming clear. I don't need him here in this world around me. I'm glad he disappeared. So I can stay out all night and get drunk until the morning comes out I'll forget about our life."

"No you won't dude. You can't. Bludhaven needs Nightwing."

"The first time he screamed at me, I should have made him leave. I should have known it could have been so much better. I hope he's missing me. I hope I've made him see that I'm gone forever as well."

"Dick, don't talk like that. He'll come back. No one stays dead forever. I mean look at me."

"And now it's coming clear that I don't need him here. I'm glad he disappeared."

"Come on big guy. You have had way too much to drink and Bruce is going to kill you seeing as you used his credit card."

"I don't care. I hate him just like I hate Damian."

"Don't say that. Damian can hear you and he will wreak havoc onto you once he comes back."

Jay took me back to the house and to my room. I couldn't even stand up anymore. I don't think I've ever drunk that much beer in my life. I faintly remember him pulling off my clothes, throwing me in the shower and washing my hair. After that he put me in one of my sweatpants and I basically fell into bed. He pulled my covers over me and left a note on my bedside table.

~next morning~

"JASON!"

"What did you do now?" Bruce asks me

"Oh just left some pictures for him that I took and posted on everything from last night."

"You have extras I assume."

"Well of course." I hand Bruce five pictures I took last night.

The first picture is Dick in the bar singing the karaoke. The second is how many bottles of beer and how many shots he took last night. The third is his face when he tried to walk in the house and it was too bright in his room. The fourth is of him wearing his batman pajama bottoms and batman slippers. And the fifth picture, well, I'll leave that up to you. I have to go hide before Dick comes downstairs. Let's just say, it's already got a lot of likes on Facebook.

A/N: So I typed this while in a long car ride. I felt like having a little bit of fun with this one.
