The Other Acrobat

Chapter 2

"Hey bruce, do you mind if i show Sonya around." Dick asked.

" No Dick that's fine. have fun." Dick led me out of the room into the hall.

"How have you been these past years?" Dick asked.

"I've been better. My parents were murdered in our next show but I had a really nice social worker. It's been lonely."

"Well you have me now so no need to be lonely now." He said with a slight laugh.

"I guess you're right."

" Do you have a room yet?"
" Yeah. Bruce said that it's right across the hall from your room."

"Can I see your room. I usually don't go into the empty bedrooms. There is never any reason two."

"Sure!" We walked down the hall to my room and pushed open the door and we walked in.

" Sonya i know that I was supposed to show you around but since it's not dark yet do you want to go shopping for stuff to redo your room?"

"Dick, I would love two but I don't have money to buy anything." I said with a sigh.

"I'll pay. Just think of it as a make up gift for all those holidays i missed."

"Dick i couldn't possibly-"

"No Sonya we are going to decorate this room until 3 in the morning if we have to." Dick finalized laughing at his own joke a little. He pulled me down the hall to the kitchen.

"Alfred, Do you mind taking me and Sonya to Gotham mall."

"I'll be in the car in 10 minutes Master Dick."

Dick shook his head eagerly and ran back down the hall pulling me with him.

"Hurry Sonya! We have to go get gorgeous!"

"What?!"

He pulled me into his room and made me sit in a chair by his desk. He shuffled through the drawer until he pulled out what looked like a small makeup bag.

"Now close you eyes Soni." I did as i was told and i soon felt the liquid feeling of makeup being applied to my face.

"Why in the world do you own makeup Dick?"
"Ask no questions Soni. No questions at all." I sighed through my nose a little anoyed.

"Ok now you can open your eyes." I blinked my eyes open and looked in the mirror. My makeup was perfect. The foundation was even and the wings on my eyeliner were perfectly matching. Dick was rummaging through a chest in the far corner of his room. He pulled out a black leather jacket and a pair of black skinny jeans and threw them at me.

"Go to your room and put these on." Dick told me. I walked across the hall to my room and changed quickly. I left my Flying Graysons shirt on and pulled on the skinny jeans and the black jacket. How Dick had clothes my size is beyond me but oh well. I laced up my combat boots and put on my dark sunglasses. I walked out into the hallway to find that me and Dick were matching with everything but our shoes, he had on a blue flying graysons shirt that countered my maroon one, black skinny jeans, a black leather jacket, and black converse. I laughed.

"We match. Just like we used to when we were kids in the circus."

"We better get going. Alfred is probably waiting."

"Well let's not keep him waiting" and with that we walked down the hall and out the front door.
