Being sick sucks

[RP with Roy (and Dick. And Tim!) Let's just say this happens after The Lube Fight?]

Cissie felt like crap. She was tired and achy and hadn't stopped coughing all day. By the time she got back to her room after classes, practice and dinner, all she wanted to do was crawl into bed under a million covers and not get up again until the weekend.

However, there were two chapters of A Tale of Two Cities to read, a history quiz to study for and twenty math problems to solve before she could. She put on her pajamas, plugged in her Christmas lights and settled in at her desk to try to work. One hour and five math questions later, she gave up and crawled into bed, huddling under her covers with Dickens.

She fell asleep halfway through the first paragraph.

Dick grinned. "You're a better parent than most of the ones who do it," he said.

"Ollie wasn't bad when he was around." Roy shrugged.

"Yeah, and Bruce had his moments," Dick said. "I still think you're better with Lian than either of them were with us."

"I've had her longer... she grew up with my quirks and plans around them." he smiled a little.

"Still," Dick hugged him. "You've done great with her."

Roy stroked Dick's hair, "Thank you." he said softly.

"Anytime, 'mano," Dick said.
