Cries* Screams*
"C'mon, Johnny. We were such a good team! What happened?"
Donna Troy was feeling the DIS on the aster. It has been a couple of minutes since the twins wake up and wouldn't stop crying and screaming.
"Mary. C'mon, it's me, Damian"
The little Wayne was doing his best to cheer up Mary. Even Pocus was doing her best, nuzzling and trying to hug the babies but there was not change in them.
"Did you try feeding them?"
"Woow. What an amazing idea, Will! Why didn't I think of that sooner?"
"Hey! Don't be like that with me!"
"Sorry, it's the stress. They don't want to eat, maybe they got tired of drinking from the bottle and they want their mom"
Donna picks up Johnny from his shared crib with Mary and starts rocking him.
"Who's the cutest and bravest little man around here? It's you!"
Cries*
"And I thought my sonic scream was bad. We'll have to wake them up"
Dinah picks up Mary and kisses her in attempts of stop her cries.
"Wait! We can't do that, it hasn't been the full shift that we promise them"
"I know Barbara. But I don't see them stop crying any time soon besides I'm sure now that they want their mom…"
"What makes you say that, Donna?"
"Because Johnny is getting handsy"
While crying, John was sneaking his little hand on Donna's breast and soon after, Mary was doing the same with Dinah.
"Maybe he's just a boob guy…"
Will started to laugh nervously, feeling the gaze of the women in the room.
"Tough crowd"
"Shh. Don't cry, Daddy's here"
"Come to mama, cutie"
Zatanna and Dick enter the room, looking fresh and new, the magician was quick to grab Mary from Canary's arms and the acrobat got John from Donna's. Will, Barbara and Damian left the room to give space to the couple.
"Who are the loves of my life? That's right, that's you, your sister and your gorgeous mom"
Dick buries his head on John's body and nuzzles him, eating giggles from the baby.
"Are you hungry, sweetie? Come here, mommy is here. I love you so much Mary"
Zee sits on the recliner and quickly gets her breast out for Mary to start drinking.
"Can the two most handsome men in this world come close?"
Grayson got closer to his wife and helped her getting in a comfortable position to feed both twins.
"God! I love this feeling so much…"
Dick sit on the arm chair, putting his arm around Zatanna.
"It seems that there's no room for me"
"What are you talking about, handsome? My lips are right here"
Dick leaned closer and take her lips in a tender kiss.
"And I love this feeling as much"
Dinah, Donna, Barbara, Will and Damian smiled at the scene and how they manage to calm the chaos in spare seconds.
"Thanks for covering for us. We are feeling the aster"
"Yeah but we didn't get to cover the full shift…you sleep like what? 4-5 hours?"
Donna rubbed her arm.
"And that's like 4-5 times more of what we usually get besides even with all the sleepless nights"
Zatanna looks down to her babies.
"And headaches and well everything…we wouldn't have it in any other way. So thank you"
"Then we better leave and let the Graysons be…"
Will waves his friends, and everyone else makes their way out of the room.
"That reminds that-"
"That you better call us if you need anything"
Barbara cuts off Robin. Damian only looked Barbara for a couple of seconds to understand.
"Sure thing. Thanks"
The couple didn't catch Barbara's behavior and only thank them. They stayed in the nursery room with the twins and the other make their way to leave the house.
"Why did you cut me like that? We need Nightwing t-"
"Yeah. We need Nightwing but his family needs Dick Grayson more…"
"What are we going to do with Two Face and Penguin's turf war?"
"We can handle ourselves. You have been training with Dick for so long and Jason is helping as well. We can handle that"
"That reminds me…didn't you told me that the League wanted to see when those two were getting back to business?"
"Yeah. Black Lightning and Superman miss Nightwing's way to run things and we had to double, or more, our efforts to cover for Zatanna…but as Oracle said, they are more needed here"
"Are you kicking me out of the house? Why do I sense that this is a scheme to get the twins to say daddy first…"
Zatanna was sitting on Dick's lap with her arms around him and his on her waist. They put a movie while the twins were asleep in their playpen but they were doing everything but watch the movie. And Dick paused their cuddling/nuzzling session with an idea.
"It is not"
Zatanna glares at her husband.
"I swear it is not, Z"
"Then why all the sudden?"
"I've been thinking about it for a while. You stop doing the stuff that you love way before me due your pregnancy"
"And I love being a mom"
"I'm not saying that you don't but you love to perform, to be a hero, to be a teacher, to be an example to the world"
"And what about you? You just got back to the Circus and joined the League…"
"While that's true. We are talking about the time off during your pregnancy and I manage to do that stuff for a couple of months after your took your leave of absence"
"But I don't want to miss anything…I want to be the four of us together, always"
"And you won't miss anything"
"What do you propose, my genius husband?"
"Going back to our roots. Remember how before you went famous you used to practice in our living room in our small apartment?"
She nods.
"You can do that again. You can practice here, if you manage to sold out every show by practicing in our little apartment…then there's not limit for you; you can practice in our home that it's like 10 times bigger"
"And what about-?"
"We are Zataras. We can be in Shadow Crest while you train Mary and Trace for the big stuff and we can handle the small stuff with a glamour charm in the park"
"You really thought this through, huh?"
"I want the best for you, Z"
"You and our kids are the best for me"
"True but I think our children deserve to see their mom on the stage, dazzling the audiences and the public going wild for her but be happy because at the end she's ours and ours only"
"Alright. We are trying this but if I miss anything-"
"You won't"
"Or if I feel that I'm neglecting our babies or my sentinels…we are stopping"
"You won't do any of that and you know it"
"And also-"
"It's impossible for you to screw your shows, beautiful. You are the best"
"I wasn't going to say that…since the outfit accident I've been extra careful with my shows and that was your fault"
Zatanna flusters, for one of her shows she remembers approving some awful looking costumes that she used just once and never again. Why did she approve them on the first place? That was because certain someone decided that it was a good idea to put his tongue into work while she was on the phone approving stuff for her show.
"You can't be mad at me for eating you good"
"…"
"Besides I was talking about the incident with Oscar's trash can in the mu-"
Zatanna hits her husband hard on the chest to make him stop.
"You know that we do not talk about that event on this house"
"It was fun"
"For you! I was so embarrassed"
"And you look way to cute while embarrass. I remember that you asked Megan if she could wipe everyone's mind"
"I'm sure that she could but didn't do it, not because of her morals, but because she was having fun as well"
"Alright. Good that you have a good laugh at your wife's expenses but as I was saying…I don't want to screw our relationship. You need attention, I need attention, I don't want to neglect us"
"You won't. I promise that I would give you a hand with everything"
"You know for a fact that I need something more than just a hand"
"Zee. Behave, we have kids in the room"
"They are asleep besides…I like that idea of yours that you deserve a reward…"
Her sultry tone was on as she whispers on his ear and plays with his earlobe.
"Really? What kind of reward"
Dick roams his hand all over her thighs and squeezes hard from time to time.
"You…"
She kisses his cheek.
"Earn…"
Repeats the action on his forehead.
"And…"
On his other cheek.
"Deserve…"
On his nose.
"To"
She ghost his lips. He tries to reach her but she pulls back.
"Change the babies diaper"
Groan*
She giggles with his reaction.
"You are mean"
"But I can be giving as well…"
Grayson looks up to the ceiling trying to calm himself down after the teasing.
"You know…my breasts had been somewhat sore and I need a couple of strong and big hands to massage them for me…maybe to kiss them better"
Zatanna places her hands on his, showing the big difference between the size of their hands.
"I don't know, Mary's diaper have been extra powerful lately, you are going to need something more"
"Alright. I'll do that thing with my boobs that you love so much…the one that I hug certain part of you with them"
"You got yourself a deal"
With renewed energies, Dick gets up and puts Zatanna back on the couch.
"And don't forget Johnny's"
"Woow. Wooow. Wooow. That wasn't part of the deal"
Dick grabs Mary and starts changing her diaper.
"What do you want?"
"You know what I want"
Dick holds his breath to get rid off the toxic diaper.
"You got it but let's get them to their room first. We can't be on the second floor while they are on the first"
"I know"
She notices the change of his voice.
"Sorry. I didn't mean to come off as you didn't know, it just slipped"
She hugs him from behind.
"It's okay"
"Are we still up for some fun?"
She asked worried about ruining the mood.
"You better be waiting for me in our bed, in your uniform after I set the twins in their room"
She smiles while buried on his back.
"And I hope you are ready to rectify me…I've been such a bad catholic girl with this huge urge to sin"
"Don't worry…after I'm done with you, you'll be in heaven"
"Dork"
