Damian woke up a few hours later. He didn't even realize he fell asleep until now. He looked at the cloak in a daze. 7:34pm. Damian jumped out of bed and ran downstairs. He had to make sure Dick would still talk to him. When he got downstairs, no one was home. He was worried.

"Grayson! Todd! Drake!" No answer. Damian looked in every room in the house. No sign of them. Damian was ready to give up. Behind him, he heard someone.

"Damian?" Damian turned around and saw Dick. He wasn't mad. Just looked worried. Damian without warning, burst into happiness. That huge smile everyone loves spread across his face. 

"Dick! Your still here!" Damian ran up to him and hugged him. Damian held back his tears. He expected Dick to hug him back, but he pulled him away.

"Dick?" Dick was looking at the floor. Damian was worried. Dick looked up, but he looked mad now.

"I told you no! You went through my personal things! You are just cold hearted!" Dick grabbed Damian. By the neck. Damian tried to scream but he couldn't. He felt tears running down his face again.  The last thing he saw was Dick clenching his neck. When he blacked out, he woke up.

Damian was asleep the whole time.  He felt himself shaking.  Damian lightly held his next. Dick wasn't trying to kill him. Damian was safe. Damian held his knees and berried his face in them. Then, he cried. He cried harder then he did before he accidentally fell asleep. Did he really anger Dick that much? 

Damian looked up when he heard someone near his door. He looked out on the cloak. 8:00pm. Everyone was going on patrol now. That's probably why someone was at my door. Probably Jason or Tim letting me know they're leaving. He hoped no on would open his door because he couldn't stop crying. He was clearing his throat and getting ready to speak. Instead of Jason or Tim, it was Dick.

"Damian, we're going out now." Damian tried to speak but he couldn't without letting him know he was crying. He could've fooled Jason or Tim. But not Dick. Dick would know right away.

"Damian, I know I acted like a huge jerk earlier. But you shouldn't really go through people's things. Damian, please talk to me"

"I'm sorry" Damian said it as quickly as possible. 

"What? Damian are you okay?"

"Yes. Fine"

"You don't sound fine. I'm coming in" Dick opened the door. Damian kept his face in his knees trying not to make it obvious he was crying. But it was hard. He was shaking and crying really hard.

"Damian?" Damian looked up. Tears were all down his face and dripping on to his bed. He was continuously crying.

"Damian!" Dick wrapped his arms Damian. Damian couldn't help but cry, but he smiled because his proved his nightmare wasn't a reality. Damian, for the first time in a long time, put his arms around Dick to.

"I'm sorry. I was curious about what was troubling you so much. I wanted to help you."

"Damian, sometimes it's best you don't. It's stupid really to stress. I'm sorry for causing you to cry. I never meant to hurt you."

"I'm so sorry Dick. I had a dream that you tried to kill me for this. You had your hands around my neck. I just hoped you didn't hate me"

"Damian, I could never hate you. I forgive you. You know, if you want you can patrol with us tonight. I'm sorry for counting you out. "

"Sure. I just need to get ready."

"Okay. Just remember this okay?"

"Okay" Damian got up and ran to get his suit.

Once he was ready, Dick was in his Nightwing suit. He was finally smiling at Damian again.

"Ready kiddo?"

"Yep" They both ran to the Bat cave. Tim was already in passenger. Damian jumped in the back by Jason. Tim eyeballed Damian.

"I thought he wasn't coming"

"We made up. He's coming." Dick looked back at Damian and smiled.

Damian smiled back. Everything was as it should be. The last thing they needed was a terrible conflict
