Just a phone call away
"I miss Marinette." Tim muttered during breakfast. There is still a month before they move in together. All of the heads snapped to him. They were all visiting the Wayne Manor as they did on sundays.
"Well, you guys will move in together soon. So wait, for a while." Dick tried to calm him. How long was he supposed to wait for. It's been so long
"I know, but that doesn't mean I don't miss her." Tim sighed and dropped his head on the table. Alfred just shook his head at his antics.
“-TT- stop being so pathetic Drake, you won’t die if you don’t see her for another month. You should feel blessed that someone such as Marinette even agreed to move in with you.” Damian spoke up from where he was perched up on the shelf. What was he doing there? Tim had no idea. Tim did feel blessed, he felt blessed that someone as amazing as her decided to date him. No matter how many times Marinette explained to him, he never felt worthy of her.
“Master Damian, come down from there and eat your breakfast. Don’t make me repeat myself.” Alfred reprimanded, sighing Damian made his way down the shelf and to the dining table.
“Well Replacement if you miss pixie that much why dontcha call her?” Jason said, putting his head on his hand and leaning forward. No matter how much he said that he was there only for Alfred’s cooking, Tim knew he loved all of them and still considered them family.
“I would but it's not the sameeeee.” Tim whined
“Stop your whining Drake. It’s annoying.” Damian said which earned him a stern ‘Damian’ from Dick.
“If you miss her, you can always visit her.” Bruce said for the first time. If he stayed quiet for a few more moments, Tim isn’t sure if he would be able to tell Bruce was even here.
“Bruce, I love the idea. But I am not that dumb. I have already looked at all the flight tickets. All the flights to Paris are closed because of the Riddler. The next time I meet him, I will make sure he gets extra hurt.”
“I know that Tim, but you can always borrow the private jet. I would let you use the zeta-beams but they’re for superhero business only.” wait, that’s right. Bruce has a private jet. It’s one of the few good choices Bruce made.
“That’s right. This man has a private jet too. Feel free to use it for anything you like.” Jason said tipping his chair back, which Alfred immediately scolded him for.
“Bruce you’ll let me borrow it?” At Bruce’s nod Tim started to get up and run to his room
“Finish your food first Master Tim.”
“Yes, right, food.” Devouring his food Tim made a beeline for his room and packed his bags for a week as quickly as he could.
Two hours into the flight Tim got his much needed sleep, because Jason coaxed him out from taking his work there.
“You're going there to hang with your girlfriend, not for a meeting. Leave your work here.” And Jason did make sense.
When they landed it was 10:00 pm there. By the time he checked into his hotel and got settled, it was already 10:30. Without wasting any time Tim ran to the ‘Boulangerie Patisserie’, where a beautiful girl with deepest blue eyes he had ever seen welcomed him.
“Bonjour, welcome-” As Mari looked up she was shocked to find who it was. “Tim? What are you doing here?” as Marinette came out of the counter to meet him, Tim was already there hugging her.
Looking into her eyes he answered “Hey Bean. I was just missing you. So I thought why not?”
“But aren’t all the flights closed due to the Riddler's, who has a disgusting sense of fashion by the way, attack?” At Marinette’s confused glance Tim explained how Bruce owned a private jet. “Of course, you rich people. But, I am really happy you just came here to meet me.” Marinette kissed him
“I’ll go to hell for you and your kisses.” Tim looked lovingly into her eyes.
“As touched as I am, you do know that if you missed me you could’ve called me and I would’ve teleported there?” All the colors drained from Tim’s face and he groaned at his stupidity. Marinette was just a phone call away and Tim wasted this much time travelling there. Well, he got to see her, so it was all worth it in the end. He is still dumb though.
