It was times like these where Dick swore he could see his entire universe in your eyes. The way they sparkled, so full of life, even as you spoke about such mundane things. And he listened to every word. Not just because they were coming out of a pretty mouth, but because he cared. He cared so much that sometimes it was terrifying.

"What an asshole," he mumbled, brows knit together as you complained about the long and tiring days at work. He reached a hand out to rest on your thigh.

"You could just always quit. Y'know, hang out with me all day. Sounds nice, huh?"

It was a joke - kind of. His heart thumped when you laughed. Dick smiled, "I mean it. Let's just be lazy together everyday."
