Since the team had been doing better than ever, Batman had allowed them a party at Mt. Justice. All the young Heroes and sidekicks were invited and the assigned chaperones had canceled other plans.
“Yes! This is going to be awesome!” Wally exclaimed as he ran around.
“Wally!” Willow scolded on a giggle. “Stop.”
She shook her head and went back to hanging decorations. Megan was cooking all sorts of treats, Becca helping her so they came out perfect. Artemis and Kaldur had gone out to arrange for something without tons of sugar, Connor was clearing out the party spazio of dirt, and Robin was helping hang streamers...in the rafters. Each were assigned a different job and set out to do as told. Wally had decided he was not able to wait.
“Yo Rob? Is Bats letting te come to the party?” he asked on a speed high.
“Yeah but I'm not coming.”
“What? Why not?”
“Becca and I have precedente engagements.”
“So?”
“So we aren't going Wally,” Becca answered from where she was sitting and stirring Cioccolato for Megan's molds. She had seemed sad all week, but today beat all the others.
“What's the event?”
“Something that can't be rearranged.”
Becca set her bowl down, heading to a different room. Wally looked at Robin for an explanation as to why Becca was so down.
“I can't say much but Becca needs to do some buisness tonight. And she needs me. I can't let her go alone. Maybe we'll swing da later, but that's up to Becca.”
Becca sat on Robin's bed, crying silent tears. Since she no longer lived at the mountain, she no longer had a room. But Robin had always allowed her in his so she sat there now, crying with an aching heart. The door opened and Robin came in. He shut the door and crawled on the letto behind her, wrapping his arms around her tightly.
“I miss them so much.”
“I know Becca. But they are still with you.”
“I want to see them. I want to hug them. I want to remember!”
“I know. I want all that for te too. But that's something I can't do.”
“I know. I'm just...tired of living like they never existed.”
“It's okay. Everything hurts the first few times. But it's always easier when someone is with you.”
“Promise me something, Dick.”
“Hmm?”
“As long as te can help it, te won't leave me.”
“I promise. Nothing is going to take me away from you.”
Becca turned, crying into his chest. Her cuore ached and she just wanted to die. Never had she felt so dead inside. Everything inside her screamed in pain. There was nothing she could do. It was long over. Everything was over.
“Mom, Dad? I miss you. I know you're better off but I want te here. I know it's selfish but I just can't help and ache for you. I brought te guys something.”
Becca placed two red rose each on her parents' graves.
“You always detto how much te Amore each other. How te always wanted me to find that special hero who would save me from the world. I found him. Yep, Dick Grayson.”
Becca paused a minute, trying to clear her tears.
“I knew you'd be proud mom. And dad? te don't have to worry. He's taking good care of me. But I wanted to let te know. I hope te can see me with him. It's what I always dreamed of. And he treats me better than anyone else.”
Becca smiled a little, tears running down her cheeks in rivers.
“I Amore you. You're never forgotten.”
Becca broke down and cried hard. Arms wrapped around her and Becca felt herself stand as Robin pulled her up. She stopped her tears, and looked at him.
“I feel better.”
“I'm glad. And I have a surprise.”
Robin pulled a remote out of his pocket and clicked a button. A song came pouring out and Becca threw her arms around Robin. She buried her head in his neck, feeling his strong arms avvolgere around her middle.
“How'd te know?” she whispered.
“Something I took a guess at. Your parents had always danced at night. Back in the circus. I remember hearing this song and seeing their shadows sposta behind the window.”
“You're amazing,” Becca whispered.
“Besides, we'll need the practice for our wedding.”
Becca smiled, allowing the song to take her away. When Amore takes te in, everything changes. A miracle starts with the beat of a heart. When Amore takes te home and says te belong here. The loneliness ends and a new life begins. When Amore takes te in.
“I Amore you,” Robin whispered.
“I Amore you.”
If te were to see this scene from a distance, te would have found it odd that two young people were dancing in a graveyard. But if te looked harder, te could see two faces smiling above them. And that would never be forgotten.
