The Badass Ladybird of Gotham

Welcome Dinner

"Damian, Marinette, it's time for dinner! Bruce invited the whole family so that they can meet Jason's sister!" Dick peered his head into Damian's room. It was empty except for Alfred the cat who made himself comfy on Damian's pillow. Dick walked across the hall to Marinette's door and knocked. No answer. He opened the door to see the two, once again intertwined and before he attempted to wake them up, he took a picture. This is the second time today that I found them together. In the same bed.

"Lovebirds, I hate to break this up but it's time for dinner, come on," Damian grumbled and pulled Mari and rolled over.

"Go away Grayson, I haven't slept this well in ages." Marinette was still sound asleep.

"Should I tell Jon to just come up here later? Or?..." That woke Damian up. He glared at Dick and said

"You wake her up, I'll actually murder you. She needs to sleep. More than I do." Dick smiled at Damian in the most 'I really hate to do this but seriously' kind of way. Dick shook Marinette's shoulder, and no response. Damian kicked Dick in the shin.

"What the hell was that for kid?" he whisper yelled and grabbed his leg.

"go AWAY" Dick has never seen Damian in such a protective way.

"Damian, my little baby bird, you leave me no choice." and with that, Dick left the room.

What the hell is he talking about Damian thought. She needs to sleep anyways. I don't wanna move.

"DAMIAN!!!!!" Jon walked in and Damian threw a Shuriken at the high pitched voice of his friend. Jon caught it faster than he did a bullet.

"Wow Dick, you're right. He's never thrown anything actually pointy at me besides knives, he must really like this-" Damian threw a knife at him and he caught it.

"CAN"T YOU SEE THAT SHE NEEDS TO SLEEP?" Damian whisper yelled. "She used up a lot of energy earlier and I don't want to wake her up." Damian smiled at her.

"Little bud, she is the guest of honor tonight. Even Kor'i is coming tonight with little Mar'i. Selina, The Kents, the girls came back, even the league is here." Dick tried to reason with him but, Damian kept the same face. The door opened and Jason walked in.

"You've gotta be fucking kidding me. Alright, I'm not even going to lecture, just wake her up." Jason rolled his eyes and shook Marinette's shoulder as Dick did.

"Mari come on.." nothing. "Damian, what did you do to her?" Damian fumed up.

"I did nothing Todd, SHE NEEDS TO SLEEP" he whisper yelled once again. Jason sighed and put his hands over his mouth in a megaphone fashion.

"MARI YOU'RE LATE FOR SCHOOL!!!!" She shot up and rummaged around the room for what? an outfit? Nobody knew. She grabbed a red and black spotted sundress and ran into the bathroom. Damian felt cold without her there. Within 3 minutes she came out and She looks like an angel. Her hair was in her natural curls, neater than her bedhead (which he honestly liked) and Dick gasped and pulled her out of the room.

"You are- You are that girl from the video! You are the heroine?" she giggled and nodded. Damian ran into the hallway with Jason and Jon in tow.

"Hello Kent. Marinette this is Jon. The bane of my existence." Marinette shook the smiling boy's hand and was met with,

"I take great offense to that Dami. Hi, I'm Jon, Damian's best friend." Damian kicked the boy and added

"Don't call me Dami Kent." He took Marinette's hand and basically dragged her downstairs. Jason just watched this happen and Mari sent him a 'help' look, but Jason found this whole thing amusing. They got downstairs and heard squeals.
