Rocky Relationships: Kissing in the Rain

Zatanna aged: 15

Dick aged: 14

Zatanna walked through Gotham Central Park... Looking back, it was obvious... She had just learnt her boyfriend, Robin the Boy Wonder, was really Richard Grayson (or, as he preferred, Dick). A tear ran down her cheek.

"Zatanna," came Dick's gentle voice and he appeared in front of her.

Zatanna wiped the tear away and walked past him.

"Zatanna!" Dick repeated, grabbing her arm "Let me explain myself!"

Zatanna turned to look at him. Dick let go of her... She couldn't get used to those sapphire blue eyes...

"Start explaining," Zatanna said, crossing her arms over her chest.

"Zee... I would've told you sooner but Batman... Bruce... wouldn't let me! And there are some orders that I can't disobey," he said, his eyes pleading with her.

Storm clouds swirled above them and somewhere in the distance, lightning struck... press-photographers played with their cameras as they walked by the park. They looked over to see Richard Grayson talking to a girl!

"Dick I-" Zatanna stammered "I understand... it's just a lot to proses,"

"Zatanna, the Richard Grayson you read about in the papers... that's not the real me!" Dick said "The Robin you know is... I don't really act like a Boy Billionaire. A Boy Wonder is closer,"

"It's just you're the last person I'd expect to be Robin the Boy Wonder," said Zatanna.

"That kinda makes it the perfect cover, Zee," Dick told her.

There was a loud cracking sound and rain started pelting them.

"Zatanna! I really like you!" said Dick "I don't want this to come between us,"

"I don't want this to come between us either," said Zatanna "I really like you too,"

Dick stroked her cheek. She looked up (he had grown taller than her), into his sapphire blue eyes. She lent up, wrapped her arms around his neck and started twining his raven-black hair around her fingers. He groaned at this but wrapped his arms around her waist. Their hair, clothes and skin were soaked through. They tilted their heads and their lips met.

The paparazzi's cameras flashed. Zatanna and Dick parted and laughed against each others' lips. The paparazzi... that was going to take some getting used to for Zatanna.
