You stumble, almost falling to the ground. You quickly stand up straight. A royal palace guard has just thrown you, the princess of the royal family, to the street. They took your fancy dress, your necklace, and all your belongings except your watch. You were furious, even so angry, your own family has thrown you out of the palace, not recognizing you as part of the royal family. Why? Because they caught you giving your own money to some less fortunate maids. Calling you a disgrace to the family, how nice they are?

You looked back as the guard got back on his horse and headed back to the palace, annoyed. You started walking, not knowing where to go, you kept walking... and keep walking. The sun is setting, you're getting tired, your feet are starting to cramp, especially with these damn heels.. You felt your eyelids getting heavy, until you bumped into someone. A man who was almost the same age as you, He looked very handsome, especially for a commoner.

He looks up at you, not realizing that you are the newly exiled princess. “Oh—I’m so sorry, I wasn’t looking where I was going.” He chuckled, one of his arms behind his neck, while the other went into his pocket.

He grinned slightly, and somehow you could tell it was a mischievous grin. In reality, he had bumped into you on purpose, and he had snatched your watch without your knowledge.

Oh, today just got better. “I’m Richard, Richard Grayson, but my friends call me Dick.” He said, smiling innocently at you so you wouldn’t get suspicious.
