A/N: I was in band (obviously) when I got this idea! And I could just easily imagine him playing it.

Dick's POV

Today, I promised Bruce I'd teach Damian something non-violent. The only thing I can think of is playing the Alto Saxophone . Why that? That's the only thing I could think of and I sorta know how to play. I already bought him one and he is being forced to learn, by his Father.

He was sitting in a chair I brought up to his room and he didn't look happy. "Come on lil'D! It'll be fun!" He gave me a mini bat-glare. "It's stupid! It's just time consuming."

"That's the point Damian. Now, sit up strait! First rule in my band and any other band in the universe!" I put the Alto together and handed it to him. "This is expensive so don't drop and break it!" Damian rolled his eyes. I positioned his hands so he was correctly holding it. Once he got it good, I put the reed on.

"Now, put this strap around you." I pointed at the strap attached to the Alto. He did it without a single word, in fact, he was giving me the silent treatment. "Good, put the mouthpiece in your mouth but not the whole thing and make sure the ligature is on the side the reed is on. Make sure you have your front teeth on top and your bottom lip on the bottom. Like you have top teeth but not bottom one. Try it Dami." He did has he was told. Good, he finished the easy part, now for the hard part, getting the sound out. "Okay, now blow an air stream and make sure you tough (I can't get the right spelling, stupid auto-correct) ."

"This is stupid." He blew but squeaked. "Don't push on the reed so hard and only have the mouthpiece have way in your mouth." He did it with a wine and blew. "You did it! Play a F, all top 3." He blew and got a good sound out, he's learning quickly. I brought out the book and showed him what it looked like in the book. I also told him musical notes were from the first 7 letters of the alphabet. A,B,C,D,E,F,G. I also explained the counts each note has and how to count it. Whole note is 4 counts, half note is 2 counts and a quarter note is one count in a 4/4 time. Which means 4 notes per measure and a quarter note is worth one beat.

Damian learned pretty fast and the difficult part for him was getting sounds out but he got the hang of it. After 3 hours of learning, I told him he could put it away if he likes.

"If you want, you can put it away Damian. I know your Father kinda forced you to take these lessons."

"Let's say, I wanted to keep playing, could I?" I smiled. "I knew you'd like doing it Damian! Play number 4 in the book." Which, was just bunch of whole notes and only 3 notes not in order, but that's how it started, after 7 hours, he could play 56 in the book including Jingle bells. He could also play all notes and eight notes.

"Okay kiddo, it's getting late and I'm getting hungry."

"Before we put it away Grayson, I need to rub it in Drake's face." I laughed. Which probably was Damian language for 'I want to play for everyone' so of course I allowed him. Bruce, was amazed. Damian was happy that he had something to rub in Tim's face. Tim was actually jealous! When he finally put it away, Bruce asked him,

"What was the hardest part learning it?"

"Accepting the fact I liked it.

A/N: I'm a band geek and a always could see Damian playing that!
