Prompt: Baby Shopping+Bibs

Dick - 27

Jason - 24

Kaden - 1


Kaden giggled happily, flailing his little arms and legs in his stroller as Dick and Jason strolled down the aisle looking for new toys, clothes, diapers, the whole nine yards for Jason's new baby boy. They were currently in the baby clothes section looking for boy's clothes, Jason pushing the stroller and Dick picking out articles of clothing, shoes, bibs, everything. Jason couldn't help but to watch as his boyfriend shopped for Kaden; the man was really enjoying this. It was cute.

They started out with a basket, but with Dick grabbing almost everything in sight for Kaden and practically spoiling the little boy, he had to go back and get a cart. It was half full already, with toys, diapers, bottles, pajamas, and now clothes.

"You see, Kaden? Dickie is a shop-a-holic. He's going to spoil you rotten," Jason said softly, leaning over the stroller to look at Kaden. The infant let out a shrill laugh, bringing a smile to Jason's face. He turned back to Dick who flashed a smirk at him before turning back to the shelves. They came before a section of bibs and Dick gasped.

"Jay, Jay, Jay! We have to get this one for him!" Dick exclaimed, grabbing one off the shelf and showing it to Jason. It was a black bib with white text that read "These fools put my cape on backwards. Jason quirked an eyebrow at in and let out an exasperated sigh, pinching the bridge of his nose.

"No, Dick. Kaden does not need anymore bibs. He has a million and a half at home already," Jason countered. Dick looked at the bib, then at Jason and gave him the puppy eyes. "Oh god, no," Jason muttered to himself.

"Jay, c'mon. Just one more? Please?" Dick asked, playing the old sad puppy routine on Jason. It worked every time. Jason groaned at the sight of Dick's puppy eyes, and rolled his eyes, face palming.

"Fiiiiine. But this is the last bib. The. Very. Last," Jason said sternly, frown and all as he pointed at his boyfriend for added effect. Dick chuckled in amusement and pressed a kiss to Jason's jaw, dropping the bib into the cart along with the various Justice League baby shirts. "You know, you're lucky I love your geeky ass," Jason said casually. Dick snorted and waved his hand dismissively.

"You'd be lost without me," Dick replied with a snicker as the two of them went on with their shopping. "And don't forget, Bruce, Tim and Alfred want to throw Kaden a welcoming party at the manor later. We don't want to be late, do we?" He called back over his shoulder. Jason rolled his eyes again.

"Yeah, yeah."

._._._._.

Dick, Jason and Kaden pulled up to the manor in Dick's car, a blue 1969 Chevrolet Camero. Jason hopped out of the passenger's seat and carefully pulled the sleeping infant from his car seat; it was to no avail because the boy woke up and started to fuss.

"No, no, don't cry! Ssh, ssh, ssh," Jason whispered bouncing the little boy in his arms a bit. Dick rounded the car and chuckled a bit, pressing a kiss to Kaden's head.

"He's just tired. C'mon, let's get inside," Dick said cheerily, enlacing his fingers with Jason's and tugging him toward the front door. Dick rang the doorbell and Alfred answered moments later. Kaden gave a shrill giggle at the appearance of the butler. Alfred flashed the infant a smile and patted his head.

"Master Dick, Master Jason. You're late," Alfred said evenly, arching an elegant brow.

"Sorry Alf, but we're here right? It's only five minutes," Dick replied, flashing a smile. Alfred gestured for them to come inside, closing the door behind them.

"In the main living room if you would," Alfred called from behind them, following the two of them as they made their way through the mansion. Dick and Jason came to the living room and were a bit surprised to see more than just Bruce, Tim and Damian. Alfred passed by them, flashing them a smile and joined the others. Kon, Clark, Oliver, Dinah, Roy, Hal, Diana, Barry and Iris, Zatanna, and Barbara were all there as well.

"Well, this is a surprise," Jason said with a smirk, setting Kaden down on the floor. Ace came bounding toward the baby, tail wagging wildly as he laid down in front of the giggling infant, passively letting Kaden play with his ears. Jason and Dick looked down at the two of them and chuckled in amusement before joining the others, sitting on the couch in a space seemingly reserved for them.

"Yeah, we may have invited a few friends" Tim said with a smile, snickering in amusement.

"You didn't think we'd miss this, didja Jaybird?" Roy asked with a grin.

"Well, I'm glad you guys are here," Dick said cheerily. Zatanna spoke in Latin and a bunch of gift bags floated across the room and landed on the coffee table.

"We all picked up a few things for him. Oh I so love shopping for a baby!" Zatanna chortled. Barbara giggled and looked up at her friend.

"I know right?! I hope you guys like what we all got you!" Barbara added in. Dick seemed highly amused by it, and Jason less so. He just amused on the inside.

"Go on! Get to opening!" Oliver urged. Dick and Jason shared and look, and so it began.

Dick was absolutely delighted as they opened and all the gifts; superhero t-shirts, onesies, socks, shoes, and even more bibs. Jason laughed after the twentieth bib after Dick teased him about his comment in the store earlier. Last on the list was Bruce; Clark had gotten Kaden a superman onesie with a cape, a superman bib, and superman socks.

"Here, I hope you like it," Bruce said smoothly, glancing over at Clark as he handed a few bags to Dick and Jason. The two of them exchanged looks, curious now. Dick opened the bags and gasped at what was inside.

"What is it?" Jason asked, trying to get a peak. Dick laughed joyously as he revealed a Batman onsie, also with a cape and a little cowl. Next was a Robin onesie with little green socks, then a Red Robin Onesie, and a Nightwing onesie.

"Oh wow, these are adorable, aren't they Jay?!" Dick asked ecstatically, showing them off to Jason. Jason chuckled in amusement at Dick's utter nerdiness over all the superhero attired. "Oh look, there's another one," Dick said, catching Jason's attention. He pulled one last onesie out of the bag, and what a surprise it was.

It was a black onesie with a red bat symbol on the chest, equipped with a little red hood, and a little brown jacket stitched to it. Dick looked over at Jason and grinned widely; Jason was speechless.

"Is that a Red Hood oneise? Do they even make those?" Jason asked, quirking an eyebrow. In all honesty, he was kind of overjoyed to be included. Bruce smirked slightly as he sipped his tea.

"Yes. They don't make them, but I asked Alfred to make one for Kaden. I wanted to make sure he had one for all of you," Bruce said smoothly. Jason smiled a genuine smile as he took the onesie and held it up, looking it over.

"Well, the thought I appreciated. We'll keep it, but he won't be wearing it," Jason said smoothly.

"But Jaybird-"

"Nah, it's fine Dickie. I don't really want Kaden growing up liking the Red Hood," Jason said evenly. An awkward silence filled the room thereafter. It felt like it stretched on into eternity before Jason finally broke the silence again. He grabbed one of the onesies and held it up.

"Not to sound ungrateful or anything, but didn't anyone buy him something normal? Like trucks, or dinosaurs, or something?" he asked with a laugh. Alfred handed him another bag.

"Not to fear, Master Jason," Alfred said with a knowing smile. Jason dug through the bag and lo and behold, he pulled out a white onsie with trucks and cars all over it, and a bib with various zoo animals on it.

"Oh thank god. Thank you Alfred, finally something normal," Jason said with a grin, earning a laugh from the others.
