Prompt: Kaden starts to notice boys

Dick: 38
Jason: 35
Kaden: 13

Dick and Kaden walked through the mall, carrying a bag or two each and some chili dogs and sodas, just talking to each other and having a good time. Dick nodded toward a table nearby and so they sat down to eat. It was Dick's day off from work today; usually he had at least a couple days off a week, but a crime wave had hit Bludhaven recently, and Dick had been called in a lot lately. But today was their day, a day for the two of them to spend together. Kaden had wanted to include his father too, but also had work. He wasn't sure what though, just that grandpa Bruce needed his help with...something.

They'd had a great time thus far. They went to the arcade and played some video games together. Dick didn't miss the opportunity to play Dance Dance Revolution, much to Kaden's embarrassment, and even drew a small crowd. Then the two of them did a little shopping; Dick bought Kaden a video game he'd had his eye on, as well as a couple Disney DvDs that he knew he and Kaden would watch together later. Dick was still kind of a kid at heart, and Kaden, even at the age of 13, still had a soft spot for Disney movies.

They also bought some new t-shirts. Kaden was a little less than impressed with his choice in attire however. Dick had picked out matching t-shirts for the two of them; they had pictures of cartoon fish on them, an adult and a baby fish, and Dick's shirt read "Big Fish" while Kaden's read "Small Fry". As if that wasn't enough, he got a set for Jason and Kaden too; "Me" and "Mini Me". The t-shirts they were currently wearing, however, was Kaden's revenge. His shirt read "Chip off the old block" while Dick's read "Old Block".

And here they were now, sitting down to chili dogs and soda for lunch. Dick watched as Kaden mowed down his chili dog in a matter of minutes, the sight reminding him of a teenage Jason. Like father, like son, Dick thought with an amused smirk. The teen most definitely shared his father's appetite for chili dogs.

Dick was sipping his soda when he caught an interesting sight out of the corner of his eye. Kaden was sipping his soda when a boy walked by; he was tall, probably sixteen with green eyes and slicked back blonde hair. The teen wore a black sleeveless muscle shirt, a pair of skinny jeans, and black converse sneakers. As the teen walked by, Kaden suddenly stopped sipping his soda for a moment, watching him walk by, his eyes seemed to wander over the older teen's form a little. Dick, pretending not to notice and hiding a little smirk behind his own cup, mused at how Kaden seemed to be trying to be so subtle about it.

After the boy was out of sight, Kaden's attention snapped back to his papa, who gave the man a quizzical look; Dick was smirking at him.

"What?"

Dick turned, looking in the direction the teen his son had just been checking out, had gone. He then turned his attention back to Kaden, opting for a casual approach, giving his drink another sip.

"So, that boy was rather handsome, hmm?" Dick asked discreetly. Kaden's face flushed a little as he gave a shrug of his shoulders.

"Y-yeah, I guess," Kaden muttered, rubbing the back of his neck nervously. Dick's amusement increased a bit at the boy's flustered response. Kaden's attention seemed to drawn away from his papa and Dick turned, following the boy's line of sight; the boy that his son had been checking out was on his way back and stopped to talk to a mall employee just outside one of the shops, right across the way from their table. Dick turned back to see Kaden staring at him again and Kaden did a double take what he noticed his papa watching him, his face heating up.

"What?!" Kaden asked, flustered. Dick's smirk turned into a grin as he leaned back in his chair.

"You were admiring the view, weren't you Kades?" Dick asked amusedly. Kaden's face heated up even more as he glanced over at the unawares teen and shushed his papa.

"N-no I wasn't!" he spluttered, sipping his drink in a desperate attempt to stop the conversation. Dick chuckled in amusement and waved his hand dismissively.

"Uh huh. Sure you weren't, Kades," Dick teased, glancing over toward the boy and laughing internally as Kaden's own eyes followed. Kaden seemed to pick up on what his papa was doing because his face burned crimson. He glared at the man and pouted, crossing his arms on the table and looking in the opposite direction.

"I am...dammit I hate you sometimes," the teen muttered.

._._._._.

When the two of them got home a couple of hours later, having spent a little time just talking while taking a walk in the park, Jason was on the living room floor in a pair of red athletic shorts doing sit ups. He stopped when he saw his boys come through the door, pushing himself up on his feet and grabbing a hand towel off the coffee table, wiping the sweat from his brow.

"Hey, you guys have fun? Sorry I couldn't go with," Jason said evenly, flashing a smile at them. Dick smiled at the man and pressed a quick kiss to his lips and Kaden gave a nod.

"Yeah, we had a great time dad! Maybe you can come with us next time?" Kaden asked. Jason chuckled and ruffled the teen's hair, then patted his back.

"Sure thing kiddo," Jason replied. Kaden beamed at his father and them went off to his bedroom, stripping off his jacket on the way down the hall. Jason grabbed his water bottle off of the coffee table and followed Dick into the bedroom, closing the door behind him.

"So, what'd you guys do exactly?" he asked curiously, moving to the bed and taking a seat on the edge. His hand guns and his black phone were sitting on the nightstand on his side of the bed, both of which he grabbed to put away in the lock box he kept under the bed.

"Well, we spent some time at the arcade, went for a walk in the park, had some chili dogs, even did a little clothes shopping," Dick replied, sitting down on the bed and kicked off his shoes. He heaved a sigh and reclined on the bed, glancing over at Jason. Jason smirked at the man, shooting him a look over his shoulder we he fiddled with the lock box.

"Oh yeah?"

"Yeah. Even picked up you and Kaden an adorable matching t-shirt set," Dick said with a little grin, sticking out his tongue at the man. Jason rolled his eyes, chuckling a little at the idea f matching t-shirts.

"Oh and your son was checking out a boy today," Dick added in a teasing tone. Jason glared at him and gripped his handgun.

"He what?"
