"Hallo Roy."

"Hey Kori,"

"Did you find him?"

"Shit faced at a pub. I brought him to his place. He is sleeping it off now." Roy walked out of the room. Gently closing the door to the bedroom.

"Did he tell you?"

"He did. Kori, he is messed up over this. He's been sobbing ever since I got him home. He thinks the bats won't forgive him for this. And he is clearly having bad effects from being separated from Damian." Kori made a low growl.

"I understand that he is upset but this isn't about him. It's about Damian. He marked and mated him Roy." Roy felt a little surge of anger boil up.

"I get that Kori but he isn't just upset. He is a complete mess. And yes of course it is about Damian but it is about him too." It got quiet for a little while. "Look Kori, I understand, Damian is like a little brother or even a son to you. And I can't imagine what Dick is going through right now but Jason needs our help too. And I think that at least getting to know if Damian is okay is a part of that. Kori sighed.

"You're right. I apologise Roy. I have just been so worried about Damian and you're right Dick is not taking this well. Tell Jason that I still love him and that Damian is alright. He had no major injuries but..." Roy waited for the remainder of the sentence. " He did successfully knot Damian."

"Oh shit."

"Yes. He has taken some kind of day after pill. But we won't know until a couple of days if he is..."

"Yeah. I get it. I'll tell Jay. And I will stay with him for now. Can you keep me updated? Since I don't think Dick will."

"Sure, goodbye Roy."

"Bye Kori."



Koriand'r hung up the phone and in that moment Dick and Damian walked in the door.

"Welcome home." She said with a sad smile. Damian was looking into the ground. His normal blank face on. Dick came walking up and hugged her. Soon they pulled away and Kori looked at Dick with worried eyes. "Dick can I talk to you?" Dick looked a bit confused but turned to Damian.

"Damian will you be okay for a little while?" Damian didn't answer, it didn't even seem like he had heard the question. Dick exchanged a worried look with Kori before walking over and placing a hand on his little brother's shoulder. "Dami?" Damian's eyes shot up and met his. Like he had been awoken from a dream.

"Huh?"

"Are you okay?" Damian looked down into the floor again. Not wanting to lie but not wanting to tell the truth either.

"I don't know." Dick gave a firm squeeze of his shoulder.

"Go get some sleep Dami. I'll bring you something to eat in a bit." Damian nodded and started walking away. Dick and Kori walked into another room. But as soon as they closed the door Damian walked back to that door, standing outside listening in.

"Kori what is it?"

"Dick don't be mad. But we need to talk about Jason."

"Jason!"

"Yes Jason, your other brother. I asked Roy to go find him and he found him drunk at a bar. He got him home but he is apparently completely devastated over the situation. And the mate bond is driving him insane." Damian furrowed his brow. The mate bond, his and Jasons?

"Kori I can't care about if Jason is feeling bad or not. He mated my baby brother. Our baby brother!"

"And are you never going to forgive him for that? Jason and Damian are connected now. Even if you and Bruce wanted to shun him you couldn't. It would only harm Damian."

"Don't you think I know that Kori! I know how hard it will be for Damian to be away from him. I know because I go through it whenever you leave."

"Don't start this again Dick. This is not about us. Or you for that matter. It is about Jason and Damian. And If we keep them apart for too long Damian will start getting weak. If he isn't already. If Jason is affected this hard Damian will probably be affected worse!" The yelling stopped. And Damian soon heard light sniffles from inside the room.

"He is just a kid, Kori. How? How do I help him through this and Jay... Of course I'm worried. I lost him once. I don't want to lose him again. But I need to protect Damian. I..." Dick continued crying.

"Maybe just talk to Jason. Tell him you don't hate him. He thinks you and your family won't forgive him for this and he thinks Damian hates him."

Damian's heart stopped. Or at least it felt like it. Jason thinks he hates him. No. Damian didn't know why that hurt so much but it did. Truth is he didn't know what he felt. He was scared, he knew that. Because he was more fine with the situation than he thought that he should be. He wanted to hate Jason. He wanted to be broken up about the fact that he had gotten marked but he wasn't nor was he angry at Jason for mating him. Was that the mate bond. Or... Damian didn't finish his thoughts because his headache suddenly got worse and the world around him started spinning before going dark and he slowly lost consciousness. The last thing he did before completely passing out was call out the name of the one person he wanted to see right then.

"Jason..."
