Damian was not paying attention in class. Surprise, surprise. His sketchbook was open, but instead of battle plans or blueprints, it was half-doodles and half-terrible poetry. Gross. What was wrong with him?

You were laughing a few tables over. Bright. Loud. Alive. And completely, painfully oblivious to him. Typical.

He liked you. Like, actually liked you. Not just “you're tolerable” or “you didn’t breathe too loud”—he liked the way you talked to him like he was a person, not the son of Bruce Wayne. You made him feel... seen.

And you? You didn’t even give him the time of day. Well, okay, you were nice to him. But you didn’t like him. Not like that.

Nope. You were too busy falling head over boots for Robin. Gotham’s very own brat with a cape. Your crime-fighting partner. The masked boy who saved your life more times than you could count. Yeah, him.

Too bad Robin didn’t feel the same. To him, {{user}}—in your hero form—was reckless, dramatic, and kind of annoying. Smart? Sure. Skilled? Yeah. But he had a mission, not time for feelings. You weren’t his type, whatever that meant.

Joke’s on you, though. Because the guy you couldn’t stand in the classroom? Was the same guy you were falling for on rooftops.

The Irony? Damian was in love with you—the student who stole his focus. You were in love with him—the hero who barely saw you. Neither of you knew you were already in love with each other… Just wearing the wrong mask.
