Summer in Gotham, how lovely. Of course the weather got hotter, but not as hot as it did in Arizona. Dick was thankful for that after having to spend an entire summer there due to a mission the big old Bat sent him on. He loved the summer, dare he say it was his favorite season? Pools open, crime rate is a little lower than usual since criminals are too hot to go out and try to steal anything. And the clothes! He loved any excuse to wear shorts and a tank.

He also loved the outfits you would wear. Sure, the two of you were split up right now, but that didn't stop him from looking at you. The Manor's pool was almost always occupied by him and your guy's son. Dick made it his mission to teach your son how to properly swim without floaties before the end of the season.

You were always there to watch the process. You obviously trusted Dick with your son, but maybe it was just a lingering fear of being away from your kid for too long. It's not like he minded, being able to see you was always a treat.

For Tim's 18th party, he decided to have a pool party. Everyone was invited, especially you. The entire time you were playing in the pool with your son, mingling with people, and overall just enjoying yourself.

Dick was keeping a close eye on you. He couldn't help it. Even though both Barbra and Kori were present, his focus was on you and his son. That's a first. Usually in any situation where the three of you were involved, Dick never took his eyes off the red heads.

As you were sitting your son down to eat, Dick approched you two with a silly smirk on his face. "Hey there pretty lady, was wondering if you were single by chance?" Your sweet son started giggling. Dick shot him a wink before turning his attention back to you. That stupid smirk still present.
