Tap; Tap Barbara hears the taping on her window and goes to open it and sees Robin.

-"Dick? What are you doing here? It's three in the morning" she question.

-"What I can't come to see my best friend? And happy birthday by the way" he says.

-"Okay what's wrong? Was it Bruce? Do I need to go make the cocoa?"

-"He got a new one".

-"A new one?"

-"A new son; a new Robin he is replacing me with Jason Todd"

-"Did he say that?"

-"No but he was clearly thinking about it".

-"You don't know that; maybe he was just bringing him in; 'cause he is probably another orphan; let's talk about it over a nice cup of hot cocoa" she runs and comes back a few minutes after.

"Okay so what exactly happen?" she asked sitting next to him.

Flashback – A/N: just pretend he is telling her the story in the flashback

"Dick; come in here" Bruce shouted as he closed the front door behind him.

"What is it Bruce?" Dick asked coming in the room.

"Come and meat your brother" Bruce points to the kid standing between him and Alfred.

"I'm Jason" the kid spoke.

"Jason will be helping us on patrols too; as Robin" Bruce said; is he replacing me? ooh I'm not giving up Robin.

"So does this mean that I won't be…?" Dick didn't finish his sentence.

"Oooh you will still be Robin" Bruce said "But he will be the second Robin; I'm going on patrol; Dick you stay here".

"But Bruce…" Dick tries to protest.

"Stay here" Bruce demands then leaves.

"Alfred I'm leaving" Dick stated.

"Where to; Master Dick?" Alfred asks.

"I'm going to see Babs" and with that he left.

End of flashback

-"He told me not to go on patrol; the last time he said that was when I was eleven" Dick said.

-"I'm sure it didn't mean anything" Babs said.

-"Yes; he is replacing me but he wants me to leave on my own"

-"I think when it comes to Batman; he would have said if he didn't want someone around".

-"Well if there is something I know is that he is telling me to leave".

-"No he isn't why don't you come down? So what did you bring me for my birthday?"

-"It's a surprise"

-"Is it the same surprise?"

"Nop; that surprise has to wait"

-"It's been a year and 6 months"

-"I know; but I love it when you get really impatient like that".

-"You have a series problem; pixie boots"

-"I told you not to call me that"

-"And I told you I'll never listen".
