Pancake and Eggos - a Damirae one shot
"You call yourself Queen of under realm and you eat that frozen waffles?"
Raven paused her movement as her hand held a box of eggos which she retrieved from the freezer at tower's kitchen.
Damian were leaning at the kitchen counter, folding his arm at his chest, staring at her.
As she registered his word through her head her face slowly turn to grimace with her hand cover her mouth. " How dare you insult my saviour?!" Her eyes open wide as she pointed at the boy wonder.
"You could have at least a proper meal." He sighed as he closed his eyes.
"I was damn hungry!! And besides, there's no one in the tower except us!" Raven held her hand high including the eggos.
"You could at least notify me to order some food." Damian quickly look up on his phone looking for food delivery.
"Well, you are a busy man when it comes with keep watch in CCTV room." Raven pouted as she put the eggos back to the freezer.
Damian scoffed as he scroll the menu. " You could at least knock my door or something." He mumbled.
"Nothing. What do you want, your highness?"
Damian stare at her as his finger hovering on the phone screen, ready to tap the choices.
Raven leaning beside him as she sees the screen," I don't know, surprise me." She shrugged. "It's on you, your majesty." She smirked as she slowly sit at the dining table.
Damian narrow his eyes then make some tap on his phone. He slip his phone at his pocket, grabbing some mug and making coffee.
"Here." He settled down the mug in front of her and sit next to her.
"What's on your mind, Wonder boy?" Raven take peek on him as he seems to be tired when he lightly massage his back neck.
Raven eyebrows were lifted as she waited for his answer.
"Tense." He open his shamrock eyes as he stared at the void.
"Tense?" Raven take a sip on the hot drink.
Damian simply noded. " This case, seems to take me to nowhere."
Raven blinked. Well, he should need some rest after they having big showdown with the famous Penguin and the gang who terrorize San Fransisco by threatened to bomb the majestic red bridge.
Garfield, Jamie, Jon, Donna, Kori, Dick, Jackson, Wally, all of them were on vacation on their day off. This reminds her about aunt Alice and her family at the other state. Are their in good shape?
"Perhaps I could help?" Raven offer her hands.
"Well yeah, you did teach me to think like criminal, well not in a bad way, just predicting their pattern some sort." Raven again sip the black coffee.
Damian take a long time look at her then snorted. " Stay here, I'll go get some files."
He raised and went to the room.
Raven idly her eyes follow where he goes then suddenly color start to creep her face. Azar, what was that?!
She put down her mug and touch her cheek, a bit warmer. Is she blushing?
As she heard the door closed, she stabilize her breath and her heart beat.
"What with the serious face?" Damian puzzled as he bought the files.
"Ermmm.." she slump her shoulder in relax, "Nothing." Her lips pressed into a thin line as she keep her emotion in check.
He sit where he used to be and spread the files on the table. He picked up no 3 and no 5 flipping through it , searching for clues and Raven with intuitively took the no 4. As she flip the file then she realise something.
"Damian, did you see this?" Raven pointed at the picture and showed to him.
Damian stretched his neck as he sees at what Raven pointed at and suddenly he looked back at file no 5. Then he open file no 8.
Raven, raised her eyebrow as she saw him flipping the file and arrange it on a table.
"I finally see it." He whispered. Oh?
"Glad to help you solve it." She smiled as she drink her coffee.
"Well, not solving it but, the pattern, the clue. I finally see it." He smirked then he jolted down on his batphone. " You make me see the other way."
" Still, gladly to help you." She stretch her thin smile.
"Speaking of the Devil, the food has arrived." As he look at the notification.
"Ahh!" Raven start to excited but then she quickly turn towards him. " What did you order for us?"
Damian look at her and fold his hand on his chest. "You said about surprising you." He smug.
Oh dear, what did he order for her? As soon as they heard door bell, Damian already went for the door to greet the food.
Raven sitting on the table nervously and playing with her thumb. Then she heard a thud on the table.
"Again, what did you ordered, Damian?"
"Pancake? More specifically, Alfred's pancake."
"B-but, I thought you hate pancake and eggos?" Raven stuttered.
"Not this one." He went to get some plate and Cutlery items."I... feel bad for having him making these but he doesn't mind it."
Raven could hear tenderness in his voice. Alfred must be important to him.
"Oh, he made cookies too." As he take out the container.
Who knew Damian Wayne has that kind of tone, Raven could feel his warm radiated aura as he stared at the cookies. It makes her smile unconsciously.
"Come on, Your majesty. I'm hungry as I could eat a horse." She could heard him scoffed and stared at her.
"Not on MY watch. And you will not eat a horse." Ah, snarky Damian is back again.
As he passed the pancake, Raven could smell the maple, vanilla and honestly, it feels like she's at some exquisite breakfast restaurant.
"Well?" Damian raised his eyebrow as he look at Raven who stared at the pancake.
"Oh." Raven as if awaken from her dream, cut the pancake and take a bite. Oh Azar, she may be half demon but tasting this pancake makes she flew higher to heavens. Her eyes are close in delight, her legs goes tiptoed at the floor.
After few moment passing through, she finally come back to her senses but then she realise a pair of shamrock eyes watching. She turned to meet his gaze. " Uh, Don't..don't get it wrong." She start to stuttered. "I, I never tasted this excellent pancake before." Heat start to creep on her cheek.
"I think I've discover something."
"Nothing." As Damian ate his food.
