Don't Leave Me [Completed]

Chapter 24

Dick's POV
"It isn't much, but with the Hall of Justice and the Cave destroyed, it's the best I could do." I say, as I bring the Team into the old Warehouse I've converted into a base.

"Batgirl? What're you doing?" The sleeping areas of the dorms are only separated by navy blue curtains, the only people with separate rooms are M'gann, La'gann and Conner, given that they don't live out in the city. Babs pulls back my curtain, and lies down next to me on the mattress. There's no bedframe, yet. I would've zetaed back to the manor, but I have to make sure everything's okay here. And of course Babs just had to stay.
"I can't sleep." She whispers, pulling the white sheet on top of her.
"We can't be seen like this! I'm the leader and-"
"They already have bets on whether we're already dating or not." I surrender after a moment.
"Fine." My elbow is bent, supporting my head, but Babs leans her's against it, burying her head in the crook of my neck. I wrap my arms around her protectively, keeping her as close to me as possible. After a few minutes, I feel her warm, vanilla-scented breath periodically against my skin. After giving her the softest, gentlest kiss on the top of her head, I allow myself to fall asleep.

Barbara's POV
"NightWing's so going to kill us."
"Shh. They'll hear you."
"Gar, have you got the camera?"
"The camera? We need some popcorn and a large frozen Coke!" My eyes flutter open, and I turn my head to see the whole Team staring at me. No, not me. Us. It's starting to come back to me.
"She saw us!" Bart whispers. I wave my hand sleepily in their direction.
"Keep it down, and I'll pretend not to notice you." I murmur, before burying my head back into Dick's chest, and pulling the covers completely over my head, blocking out everyone.
