Dick was exhausted. He had just gotten home from a mission, it was 12:30. Sure he stayed up later than that all the time, but this was the second mission in two days, plus patrol last night. And, he still had to go to school and do homework like any normal kid. Not that he was normal. And on top of everything, Selina and Bruce were having him go to more photo shoots than ever. He was sixteen now after all Selina had explained, "You're a very handsome young man and you're getting older, it's about time you stepped further into the public eye."

He had not been very excited about that. After two photo shoots, a few interviews, and winning three more mathlete competitions, the Gotham Gazett had started to call him "The Prince of Gotham." Honestly, he didn't get it. Bruce was "Gotham's white knight" so how did it make sense for him to be the "Prince of Gotham?" But whatever, he just had to smile and wave.

He walked past the master bed room and paused, the door was open and the light was on. Bruce and Selina hadn't been in the cave so he just assumed that they were out on patrol, Bruce must have parked the bat-mobile near the back of the cave. He walked to the doorway and peered through the opening. Bruce was on his laptop and Selina was reading a book. Hmm, this was something he didn't see too often. They almost looked like a normal couple. He smirked, they definitely weren't a normal couple. He walked in and gracefully hopped onto the bed.

"You guys are home early." He smiled.

Selina answered his smile with one of her own "Yes, there wasn't much to do in Gotham tonight so we decided to turn in early."

He nodded "That doesn't happen too often." He scooted up on the bed so that he was in between his guardian and Selina.

Bruce chuckled "You think you're being slick but we know what's going on chum."

Dick's smirk grew "I have no idea what you are talking about Bruce."

Then it was Selina's turn to laugh "You just want to cuddle."

Dick shook his head and bit his lip, "No, that doesn't sound like me, I definitely don't like cuddling," he said this as he scooted closer to Selina. She actually liked cuddling, whereas Bruce only did it every once in a while. She laughed again, put the book on the night stand and wrapped her arms around him. They both scooted over to Bruce and Dick rested the side of his head on Bruce's shoulder as he cuddled with Selina.

Bruce ran a hand through Dick's hair and said "You know you're sixteen, right?"

Smirk still on his face, Dick rolled his eyes. "Selina is an adult and she likes cuddling, and you know you do too, well sometimes."

"Whatever you say, kiddo." Bruce replied

Dick knew Bruce said he didn't like it, but that didn't stop him from putting the laptop away a few minutes later and putting his arms around both of them. Dick loved little moments like this. They reminded him of when he was little. His parents would do this with him all the time when he was little. He didn't do it as often with Bruce and Selina anymore though, Bruce was right, he was getting a bit old for it. But sometimes he just couldn't help it. It was his safe place really. He knew nothing could get him when he was like this with them. He didn't have to worry. He could trust that he was with the people that would do anything to keep him safe. That has always been what it was about. So, he was sure this wouldn't be his last time curled up with them.
