"Detective Richard Grayson…I wasn't expecting to see you in at least a week"
Yin teases her detective as he's just arriving to the precinct.
"C'mon, Comish. It was just a day!"
Dick tries to defend himself.
"I take that you told Zatanna already, right?"
Dick looks surprised.
"How do you know?"
"1. You have lipstick on your neck"
She points to the red mark on the man's neck.
"Although, that's pretty normal for you two…"
Dick nervously smiles.
"2. You two were all over the news yesterday and today in the morning. Congrats on being the most popular couple…"
Yin teases the boy, Dick's peer hear it and start whistling and cat calling him.
"It's not fair. Grayson can take days off whenever he wants and be with his wife and I can't?"
One of Dick's friends in the force, Martinez starts complaining.
"Well, Martinez, the day you get as much cases solved as Dick, you might get those free days to spend with your imaginary wife"
The force starts laughing.
"I'm dating someone. But how can we get as much as Dickie here if he solves the cases before they arrive"
Yin and Dick sweat a little bit at that comment.
"Cut some slack. Richie knows his stuff, he might have access to Justice League technology thanks to Zatanna"
"Thanks, Susan but actually no. The League's family have limited access to that sort of stuff"
Susan gets awfully close to Dick.
"And by any chance does either you or Zatanna have a cute single Justice Leaguer friend that'd want to go out with me?"
"Alright! Alright! Everyone settle down and get back to work. Grayson! To my office"
Ellen saves Grayson from that awkward moment.
"Sir, yes, sir"
Dick follows Yin.
"Where are we standing with those cases and files?"
"I'm almost go through them all"
"Just now? I thought you'd be done by now! Tell Zatanna that work is important as well"
Dick blushes.
"For the third time. I almost go through all the cases for the 3rd time"
Dick smirks at her.
"I don't understand how did I manage to put up with you for so long"
"You are gonna miss me so much"
"Yeah but we are still working together on the other front or joining the big league is going to change you kid?"
"Don't be like that. I'm always going to look out for Blüdhaven and the Unit. Just look how Batman, Superman and The Flash take care of their cities even if they are on the League"
Yin smiles at the man.
"Is there any program on the league so we can trade you for Superman? Or Wonder Woman? Or better yet, Black Canary?"
"Ouch!"
"I'm joking Dick. But if you can introduce me to any of those, I won't be mad either"
"Why didn't you asked Zee to do it? You know that she works with them"
"I know but she's a celebrity aside from the League, you know that I'm a fan of her shows and her father's. My wife and I are so thankful for those front row seats that she gave to us"
Dick was so happy that Zee and Ellen get along so well but it was not surprising considering his wife enchanting personality.
"That reminds me…Zee wants you and Maggie to come over to our house and have dinner"
Ellen beams in happiness.
"Sure. When?"
"Whenever you are available. I'm sure she wants to thank you for taking care of me"
Yin starts biting her pen for a moment.
"What about today? Does that work with you? Because the moment we reveal this…it's going to be chaotic in here and over your place"
Dick tries to think if Zatanna had any plans for them for the night.
"I think it works but I better call her to be sure"
"Alright. You do that and then get back to your desk to work on those files"
"Yes, ma'am"
Dick salutes her before marching off her office.
"Ready to go, Grayson?"
Yin gets closer to Dick's desk. The detective stretches himself before getting up from his chair.
"I miss the field way to much and definitely won't be missing these chairs…"
"They are not so bad but thanks to all the cases we close this month we might get an increase on the budget"
"Speaking off. I check all the cases all over again and solved a couple more. We are ready to go"
Ellen smiles as Dick puts his jacket on.
"Are you picking up, Maggie?"
"No, she was with a friend and it's going to meet us at your apartment"
Dick grabs his helmet and pulls out his keys.
"Race you there?"
Yin glares at him.
"Jezz. Relax, I was joking. I don't know what are you going to do without me…"
"I'm going to find peace"
"You are way more whelmed since I got in this unit, you have to admit as much"
Yin awkwardly looks to the side.
"Let's go, we can't leave our beautiful wives waiting for us"
The ride was short Yin driving her car and Dick riding his bike. The law enforcers meet up with Maggie, who was just arriving on a cab with a bottle of wine.
"Dick! So nice to see you!"
The blonde hugs the detective before greeting her partner with a peck on the lips.
"Nice to see you too. Let's go inside so we can catch up and see what Zee got us for dinner"
The trio goes all the way up to the penthouse. Once they got into the apartment they were greeted by Pocus and the stage magician with the table already set.
"Hello, gorgeous"
Dick pecks Zee on the lips.
"Hi, handsome…Ellen! Maggie! Please come in. We are happy to have you here"
Zatanna greets the couple as the blonde hands the bottle to the leaguer.
"Thanks. You shouldn't have…let me grab some glasses so we can drink this"
Sawyer, Ellen and Dick go and wash their hands while Zatanna grabs the glasses and pour some wine for the women and soda for Dick.
"This looks delicious, Zatanna"
The four of them were seated at the table. Zatanna put in the center a bowl of salad, pasta, bread and vegetarian lasagna.
"Why? Thank you. Let's dig in"
The friends start eating with Maggie sneaking some food for Pocus even tho the bunny had her own bowl of food.
"What did you do today?"
Dick asks his partner of life.
"Not much. Monitor duty all day long, it was a rather peaceful day"
"See! Even the leaguers have monitor duty and you complain about it!"
Yin teases the man.
"Yeah but at least she can see the moon or the Earth from where she is. I have to see Smith and Martinez arguing about food!"
Dick defends himself as he takes more lasagna.
"Maggie, Yin, more wine?"
The women nod before Dick starts pouring more wine on her glasses.
"More wine honorable babe?"
Dick turns and ask his love. .
"Keep it coming. I hope you don't take advantage of poor little me when I'm tipsy"
They smile for at each other while Sawyer and Yin watch the tender scene.
"As I was saying…you complain too much, Dick. You barely look at those guys. You are either checking the file, the framed photo of you and Zatanna in the park or that cheesy collage of yours…"
Dick turns beet red.
"What photo?"
Zatanna asks intrigued.
"Oh! She doesn't know about the photo? Listen, Zatanna. You know that he has that framed photo of the two of you on his desk, right?"
Zatanna nods, even if it's not a regular thing, she will take her time now and then to visit Dick on the precinct.
"Well, lover boy here has another photo in his computer when he needs extra motivation. Why don't you show it to Maggie and Zatanna?"
Dick glares at his superior before getting up and picking up his tablet. He scrolls down and start his session on the cloud.
"Here. Happy?"
The commissioner smiles as the other two women sees the picture. The picture was a collage of multiple photos, Zatanna was in about 90% with the other 10% consisted on photos of his parents, John and Mary Grayson, Alfred, Bruce, Tim, Jason, The Team, the people of the circus and some other friends; at the top of the photo there was the legend: Do it for them.
"Awww. That's so sweet, Richard"
Maggie was loving the photo while Zatanna just pecks Dick's cheeks.
"You are corny and I love you for it"
Zatanna rest her head on Dick's shoulder.
"I see that you are still not drinking…is to keep you in shape or what?"
After finishing dinner, the two couples moved their conversation to the living room and Yin's wife was playing with Pocus.
"No. I like to stay on my senses and be ready for anything"
"And because he's a light weight. You should see how bad he got the time that I convinced him to drink with me…"
That story call for the attention of their guests.
"Do tell…I need to hear this"
Dick groans in annoyance and looks for a way out but Zatanna moves from her spot on the couch to sit on his lap.
"It was at our friend's birthday. He was turning 20 and we were 18. I wanted to drink a little-"
"But tell them how you have been an alcoholic your whole life…"
Dick interrupts Zatanna.
"My father is Italian…so it's fairly normal to drink a little wine even when you are younger with the food. In any case, I told him about me wanting to drink a little and that he should join me and after some convincing"
"She coerced me"
"I just kiss you and you comply! It's not my fault that you have not self control! And stop interrupting me…"
"Indeed. That's not very…mmm…asterous of you"
Ellen facepalmed at her wife butchering the English like her right hand. Chalant smiled and give the thumbs up to the blonde.
"So we decide to take some shots of tequila with all our friends and well…after one shoot. Let's just say that Dick knows how to dance the Macarena and throw up at the same time"
The women laughs at Grayson's expenses. After some more chatting the guest left Chalant's home. Leaving Dick and Zatanna cleaning.
"Since when do you have that collage?"
She asks him as he washes the dishes and she dries them.
"A while now…I keep updating it. The latest addition are the photos from our anniversary"
"Why didn't you tell me about it?"
"I don't know. It started with just one photo of us…then I put a photo of you smiling, reading, sleeping, feeding Pocus and well y'know. I kinda forgot to mention it"
"Well…I love it. I need to do one of those. In any case, you can go and start your patrol, I can finish the cleaning"
"Are you sure?"
Zatanna mutters a spell to finish the cleaning and put Dick on his Nightwing outfit.
"Totally. Just be safe, okay? And call me if you need anything?"
Dick pulls her by the waist before they share a tender kiss.
"Of course. You just rest and by the time you open your eyes, I'm going to be holding you"
"You better, I love you"
Dick was getting out from the fire scape and looks at her one more time before leaving.
"I love you too, Zee"
