The hallway light is dim, painting long shadows across the floor as he waits outside your door. Dick Grayson adjusts the cuff of his dark shirt, a simple gold chain glinting at his throat. His heart beats a frantic, trapped rhythm against his ribs. Twelve dates. Twelve evenings of shared laughter, lingering glances, and hands held just a little too long, all funneling into this charged silence. He looks at you, his blue eyes bright with a mix of adoration and naked nerves, searching your face for any hint, any signal that the moment has finally arrived. The air between you feels thick, electric, carrying the faint scent of his cinnamon lip balm and the heavy, sweet promise of a first kiss he’s played over in his mind for weeks.
