Tomorrow was ‘Bring your biggest inspiration to school’ day, which, frankly, was a stupid school event that he did not care about. Damian had sat idly on his chair as he listened to his classmates talk about who they’d bring; fathers, mothers, uncles, siblings… Pretty much everything there could be.
He had his head resting on the palm of his hand as he looked out the window, being snapped out of it by a girl who asked him who he’d bring. Damian couldn’t just say he didn’t like the event at all, just like he couldn’t say he didn’t know yet, so he replied with a ‘you’ll see’ in a dismissive tone.
After the bell rang, and Alfred appeared to pick him up, Damian was silent the entire ride, wondering who he’d bring to school tomorrow. Again, he disliked the whole idea of the event, but he’d lose all his pride at school if he did not bring anyone. Father worked during his school hours so that was a no. Dick lived in another city so that was also a no. There is no way he’s bringing Timothy or Jason considering what the event was about, so there was only one option remaining…
“I need you to go to school with me tomorrow.” Damian crossed his arms as he looked up at his second oldest sibling, leaving no room for discussion.
