Chapter Twenty Three
Dick's POV
"Dick get up!" Jason screams in my ear before pushing me off the sofa. I sit up looking at him holding my head. He's got crouches now, for a week until his fracture
"Ow, why'd you do that?" I ask yawning and standing up. I would yell but I'm too tired...
"Because it's 1pm." He says pointing to the sky outside.
"So?" I ask then smile, "it actually looks like a warm day-"
"You used to get up every morning at 4am, and workout then go to the mountain to see the team-" he starts but I cut him off.
"What's your point?" I ask. Bringing up the team pushed a nerve. Even since I left the team I've only contacted them with one message and that was text, apart from that I haven't talked or seen any of them at all.
"My point is you should see them, it's been nearly two years since your 'death', don't you think it's time to reunite with friends, that team is like your family." Jason says seriously and I look down at him.
"Jason you don't understand, it's just going to be awkward and it'll make the team miserable-"
"No Dick, what makes them miserable is you not being there, Wally is your best friend so it's the least you could do." He says and I look at him.
"Fine I'll go." I give in, "but if they are still holding a grudge against me I'm leaving." I say and he smiles.
"Deal, now put on your mask and let's go." He says and I put on my mask beside me and we head to the mountain.
"Jason are you sure?" I ask mid-teleportation and he nods.
We get there and the team stand up and look at me as Jason walks forward, "believe me now? I said he was back in town!" Jason says and Wally speeds up to me and hugs me.
"Wally I can't breathe.."
"Hah yeah sorry..." He trails off laughing then it fades and he glares at me, "why the hell didn't you text me or visit?!" He yells annoyed and I smile, same old Wally.
"More like where did Robin go, you're all.." Artemis trails off lost for words.
"Grown up." Kaldur fills in for her, "and maybe ready to lead the team?" He asks and I smile and shake my head.
"I've not really been doing much these past two years..." I start looking at the ground smiling and the team look at me confused.
"What do you mean?" M'gann asks.
"He means he's spent these two years drinking to the point where he'd pass out, take sleeping pills just to get to sleep at night, sleep in until 1pm, stopped eating properly-"
"Ok I think they get the point." I say looking at the concerned team.
"Why didn't you come to any of us for help?" Wally asks poking at my abs, "I mean if anything you're more fit than your younger years but I just can't picture you being that...alone." He says looking at me and I nervously laugh.
"I'm fine now." I say nervously since I've only really got my body back in shape, "last month I seen the news and I got myself better to do what I need to do." I say, "and to do so I might need your help." I add.
"What are we going to do?" Kaldur asks
"We're going to see the Joker."
