A/N:  There is two Roy Harpers here, sorry.  Arsenal is with Jason, Red Arrow is with Dick... it'll make sense in a bit.

Also, really cute photo of Dick and Roy...

"I wonder when they'll come!" Jason said anxiously, twirling his guns and shooting at the targets in the trees.

"I have no idea, but I really hope it's soon!" Dick answered, twirling his eskrima sticks high into the air and catching them like a baton twirler.

"Well, if I know them well enough they'll be a little late, you know?" Tim told them, bo staff twirling in figure eight patterns around his body.

"Yeah..." Dick said, then turned to Jason, "Jay, get the cigarette out of your mouth.   You know, one of them in bound to ask for a cigar if you do it!"

"Mainly one of the gingers!" Tim teased Jason with a nudge.

"What are you guys talking about?  Who's coming to visit?" Damian asked, looking at his brothers curiously.

"Only our best friends in the world!" Dick answered, not seeing the hurt look on his youngest brother's face, "We haven't seen them in like-"

"A few months Dickie, we saw them in January!" Jason said, smirking at his older brother.

Suddenly a swoosh greeted the waiting ears of boys, and they looked up to the sky.

Starfire was floating up in the sky smiling down on the boys with a friendly face.  Superboy flew in the air beside her, his jacket twisting with the wind.  Wondergirl and Troia hovered side by side in a sassy manner, but both had a happy look on their face.  The Arrow Plane hovered beside them, and Red Arrow and Arsenal both saluted down to the boys.  On top of the wings, Kid Flash and Flash were bumping knuckles... while Tempest smiled at their antics.

"Kori!  Roy!" Jason ran to the door to great his friends, guns in his holsters.

"Conner!  Bart!  Cassie!"  Tim jumped off the patio to run into his friends, bo staff strapped on his back.

"Garth!  Wally!  Donna!  Roy!" Dick flipped out the window to hug his best friends, eskrima sticks on his belt.

"That's something I'll never be able to do..." Damian said, sadly stuffing his hands into his pockets, "I'll never have best friends."

-----

"I can't believe we haven't seen each other since January!" Kori was telling Jason, "I've missed you so much, well both Roy and me!"

"Yeah bro, missed the normal gossip time with you!" Roy said, rubbing his tattooed arms.

"Yeah, missed reminiscing also!" Jason replied, "Hey remember that time we went to the beach, and Kori you had the cutest bathing suit?"

"We went to the beach a lot of times!" Kori said laughing, "And I had cute bathing suits every time!"

"Of course you did..." Roy responded, laughing.

"You went to the beach?" Damian popped out of the shadows to look at Jason.

"Oh, is that Damian?" Kori asked, "Aw.... isn't he cute?"

"Cute, isn't the word to describe this devil!" Jason said, with a warning shake of head.

"Don't call your brother a devil!" Roy said, "That nickname is reserved for me!"

The three elder superheroes burst out laughing like it was some inside joke, and Damian turned away, going up to Tim's room.

-----

"Well how was your summer in Themyscara?" Tim asked eagerly.

"It was great Tim!  How was Thanksgiving with your brothers?"  Cassie responded, plopping on his bed.

"Memorable.... hey Bart, how was it at Wally's house?" Tim asked, turning his chair to look at his friend.

"Iris is such a handful!  But I do love being called uncle!  And their food it is great!"  Bart said, talking fast and speeding around the room.

"How's Jon and Kara, Conner?" Tim said, laughing at Bart's antics.

"Kara's great, she's really making a name for herself!  And Jon is getting much older than expected!  Growing up faster all right!" Conner said laughing as Bart tripped over something, "Man Bart, you're face looks just like it did when Clayface almost swallowed you!"

Damian slunk back into the shadows, no guts to interrupt.  So he went to Dick's room.

-----

"Want to be weird right now?" Dick asked his friends.  They all nodded and in a few seconds....

"We're the ORIGINALS!!!" Wally sang, blasting out the speakers, changing the words I am Titanium to we're the originals.

"Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!" Donna, Roy, and Garth echoed.

"We're the ORIGINALS!" Dick sang out.

"Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!" Donna, Roy, and Garth repeated.

"You break us apart!" Roy sang.

"But we get up!" Donna sang.

"WE'RE THE ORIGINALS!" Garth screamed.

Then all of them got up and got in a line and started to do some dance with their eyes closed.

Once the song was over they plopped onto their chairs and started to laugh.

"Boy I've missed that!" Roy laughed.

"Man, I'm gonna have a hoarse voice tomorrow!" Garth responded, tears coming from his eyes from laughing.

"I'm scarred..." Damian was standing my the door, hand over his eyes and ears.

"Come one Dami!  IT's fun!" Dick emphasized the word IT.

"I'm leaving now, have fun screaming your voices till they start to sound like howling cats.  Oh wait, they already do!" Damian left.

-----

"BYE GUYS!" Damian watched as his brothers yelled their voices hoarse as they watched their friends go off.

"I don't understand what's so important about friends!" he said to Tim.

"Best friends, you mean!" Dick said, plopping himself onto the couch.

"I don't understand why they're so important to you!" Damian argued, munching on a cookie.

"Well, they're the people that aren't your brothers." Jason explained.

"Wow, I didn't know." Damian responded sarcastically.

"Look Dami, at one point, when you have your own best friends, you'll understand." Tim said, grabbing a cookie from the jar on the table.

"What do they do for you?" Damian asked, picking up American Assassin:  A Thriller by Vince Flynn.

"Save your @$$."  Jason said.

"Pick you up when you're down." Dick said, then turning to glare at Jason for the cussing.

"Tell you the truth." Tim contributed.

Damian looked from one boy to another, the happy look on their faces not leaving.

He sighed.  Hopefully one day he would have best friends of his own.

-----Year Later

"I wonder when they'll come..." Jason said, his hands twirling around his head.

"They're bound to be late again..." Dick muttered.

"Like always..."  Tim said.

Damian came through the door, "Are they here yet?"

Dick looked to the skies, "I'm gonna say... yeah."

Damian looked up after his brother, and immediately saw the two people he couldn't wait to see.  Abuse was being carried by Superboy.

"Colin!  Jon!"  Damian called up, waving to his best friends.

Finally.  He had best friends of his own.

A/N:  I got lazy at the end sorry
