Stay
When school was finally over Danny transformed so he was a ghost and he teleported them to Richard's house. Once they appeared Omen went to the bathroom to change his bandages just before Alfred walked into the room. The older man looked around, "Where is Omen?"
"He's changing his bandages, he got hurt during the last mission and he's way to cautious to change them at school." Alfred raised an eyebrow before Bruce walked down the stairs and noticed that Omen was nowhere to be seen.
"Where's Omen?"
"Changing his bandages."
Bruce nodded and Night walked into the room and she looked around before she walked over to Richard. The teen picked Night up and she meowed, a few minutes later Omen walked into the room and he saw Night. Richard handed Night to the halfa and he smiled as she climbed onto his shoulders, she liked doing that.
Omen smiled just a little, "I guess that's my cue to leave."
Omen was about to teleport when Bruce stopped him, "Why don't you stay here for a bit."
Omen raised an eyebrow, "Why would you want me to stick around?"
Alfred seemed to think of something, "I could make you and master Richard some food, you could explore the mansion for a bit."
Omen thought about saying no but he eventually sighed, "Fine." The two adults smiled a little and Richard inwardly cheered, he loved spending time with Omen. Omen and Richard went to the TV room and Richard let Omen pick what they watched. Omen decided to watch a new show and he found, one called Doctor Who, he found it interesting.
It was funny and he liked it, he didn't know why but a time traveling person that only goes by the Doctor instead of his real name was cool to him. About twenty minutes later Alfred walked into the room and he set down a tray of sandwiches and cookies. Omen knew what the cookies were called but he had never tried one before, he gave the plate a strange look.
Richard raised an eyebrow and Omen eventually took one after Alfred left, he gave the cookie another strange look before he tried it. When he did his eyes lit up, these particular cookies were chocolate chip and he wondered why he had never tried these before. Richard smiled, "When was the last time you had a cookie?"
"Never, not from what I remember at least, I have to say these things are pretty good."
Richard's eyes widened, "You poor soul, you haven't even had a cookie until now."
Omen huffed, "I might not have tried a cookie before but I've done things that you haven't little bird." The two teens both knew that Omen was telling the truth, it was a little hard for them to think about but they couldn't deny that it had happened. Richard held Omen's hand and the halfa smiled before Night crawled into his lap and curled up to take a nap.
The two watched Doctor Who for a bit longer as they held hands before they remembered that they had homework. Omen ended up doing all of it without splitting himself up, it was slower but he didn't really mind. Once that was done Omen played with Night while Richard watched, Omen seemed happy.
Alfred was going to walk into the room but when he saw the two he got curious and stayed near the door. Bruce eventually joined him and they saw that Omen seemed happy, happier then either of them had ever seen him. Richard also looked happy, in fact the two seemed happy whenever they were around the other.
Bruce wondered if Omen and Richard had actually become friends, he felt like those two deserved friends. Omen had only ever had one friend and Bruce wasn't sure who they were or if Omen still talked to them. Richard had a few friends but he could only talk to Kid Flash about his double life, this was good for both of them.
Omen eventually started humming softly and he didn't even realize it, his hums sounded like a rather pretty song. After a few minutes Richard got really curious and he spoke, "What song is that?"
Omen gave him a confused look, "Hm?"
"The one you were just humming."
Omen thought for a second, "I didn't realize I was humming." Richard hummed part of the song and Omen looked at his hands for a second, "It sounds familiar but I can't remember where I heard it." Omen looked rather troubled as he thought, Bruce and Alfred frowned at each other from the door.
Omen shrugged, "Oh well, if I can't remember then I guess it wasn't that important." Richard frowned slightly but he didn't ask about it anymore, he knew not to force Omen to do something he didn't want to do. Omen already told him about how he hated it when people did that and Richard wouldn't betray his trust.
After another hour Alfred walked into the room, "Will you be staying for dinner Omen?"
Omen give him a confused look, "Would you even want me to stay?"
Alfred looked shocked, confused, and slightly concerned, "Is there a reason you wouldn't be welcome?"
Omen crossed his arms, "Any normal person wouldn't want a former assassin to stick around. Let alone one that's half ghost and tends to do weird shit when they get bored simply because they can."
Alfred seemed a bit amused, "Master Bruce told me about how you changed the names on the zeta tubes. I never heard what the names were though, he refused to tell me what they were."
"Bat brains was rich boy, that's just one of the many nicknames I have for him. Sherlock Holmes 2.0 is the latest and greatest in my line of nicknames for him, I've got plenty of other nicknames I haven't used yet."
Alfred smiled just a little, "Well you're certainly welcome if you decide to stay."
Alfred left and Richard looked at his boyfriend, "So do you want to stay?"
Omen shrugged, "I don't know, I've never really been around people and tried to act normal."
Richard smiled sadly, "You are normal, well not completely normal but you're still a person that deserves to do normal things."
Omen thought for a moment before he looked at Richard again, "You're not going to let this go are you?"
Richard smiled, "I won't make you do anything you don't want to do, I want you to be happy."
Omen smiled, "That was pretty damn cheesy little bird." Richard crossed his arms and Omen smirked, "Sometimes cheesy lines are the best ones to use though."
Richard smiled again, "So what do you say?"
Omen shrugged, "Why not, looks like I'm sticking around a bit longer." The two smiled at each other, things might not be perfect but they were getting better.
