Arriving the day before Christmas was absolutely freezing! I had to wear so many layers under my coat, and that wasn't even enough. I knew Gotham was cold but this is a whole other level of cold. Shivering under my many layers and white coat I looked to Damian who's hand was holding mine just kept looking ahead guiding me to the manor gates. He wore a charcoal grey coat and a cream scarf around his neck. There was just me, and there was him. Me a normal-looking girl and there was him, with the face of f*ing god.
Standing before the manor doors a friendly familiar butler stood before me.
"Master Damian, Miss Val. Come in, come in it's freezing out there, Alfred said.
Taking my coat off I felt the sensation of heat that the manor kept within. A familiar bark came running to me making me crouch on the ground to rub Titus's head and belly. He barked with joy as his two masters were back. We left him yesterday in the manor along with our presents for the others so it would be easier.
"Ah master Damian, the Kents are also coming over, we are celebrating Christmas with them. I must say Master Jonathan is exquisite to see you," Alfred said
I just stood there puzzled, I knew someone named Clark Kent was Superman, but who was Jonathan?
"Babe, who's Jonathan?" I asked getting up
"TT, he's superman's son. When I was thirteen he and I had little missions together. He's annoying as," Damian grumbled under his breath.
The picture in my head that he was a prick or someone that I would dislike. Great.
"V!" Stephanie said and hugged me tightly
"Can't breathe," I barely said
She let go "sorry,"
"I appreciate if you don't break my girlfriend," Damian said
"Yeah, yeah," she just said
"by the way, we're going on patrol tonight after dinner," Stephanie said.
to be honest I was kinda sad too, last time we didn't even spend Christmas together.
"Seriously?" Damian said
"Yep, Bruce's orders," she said. "It may be Christmas but the crimes never stop," she said imitating Batman which made me laugh.

Lying next to Damian on the couch next to the crackling fire was something I didn't want to stop. His face was hidden in my neck, his arms wrapped around my black sweater tight, and his hair brushing against my skin. We've been like this for about, thirty minutes? From what I know Damian was asleep listening to my heartbeat.
Unfortunately, Grayson wasn't celebrating Christmas with us as he wanted to stay with Kori and didn't like the fact of her going up and down the many stairs of the manor. I pulled the red blanket up a bit and heard a small squeal and a camera click in the corner of the room. It was Steph, Jason and Tim. Tim holding his phone and Jason had a smirk on his face.
"I've never seen the demon more peaceful," Jason said.
"Your gonna wake him," I said
"Tim if you don't put that f*ing phone away, you better run," Damian said with his eyes still shut.
"Memories," Tim said and put his phone away and headed out along with the rest.
I felt light kisses on my jawline.
"Dami, what are you doing?" I ask
"Kissing you," he mumbled an opened his eyes and his and a small smile appeared
He repositions himself by him moving up and wrapping an arm around my shoulders. Titus coming in, from what seemed he knew the layout of the manor already, popped onto the couch seeking affection from his two owners. We moved the space between us so Titus could fit. My hands lingered through his soft black fur, like velvet.
"Dames," I said
"Yes, beloved,"
"Can you get me some of the cookies, Alfred's cookies," I asked
He raised an eyebrow and then let out a chuckle.
"k," he popped a kiss on my forehead and got up. "Be back soon,"
Titus's attention then converted to the side as a black and white cat appeared. Getting up slowly I crouched down slowly not wanting to advert his fear.
"Come here," I say gently reaching out my hand.
"Here kitty, kitty," I say and tilt my head to the side.
The cat moves slowly but cautiously as well, each step ready to turn the other way. I turn my hand around making it hang to show that I'm not something to be feared of. Soon the cat's nose is only millimetres apart but I don't move. It soon puts its head under my hand and I scratch its head. It purrs in delight, it goes onto my lap.
Damian POV
After getting Val's cookies I stop at the archway to see Alfred the cat slowly interacting with Val, his nose was so close to her hand and soon responds in delight. Wow. A cat's affection was rare, but Alfred the cat was a whole other level. Val always astounds me, each day when I wake up I just fall in love with her all over again. Everyone she meets likes her, and I'm glad, by some miracle that she is mine.
"What's your name," she laughed looking at the collar.
"Alfred," she read it, God her voice was like honey. "No doubt Damian named you that," she laughed.
She turned her head to me smiling. "Dami, look who I found," she carried the stubborn cat.
"I got your cookies," I say putting it on the table. I grab out the mistletoe and put it above us and she just laughs. "My, my we're under the mistletoe," I smirk.
She just shakes her head and wraps her arms around my neck and I wrap mine around her waist. It could just stay like this, just her and I. I didn't need anything else, she was so perfect. She's so good, see's the light in people that they don't even realise. She's so beautiful that she doesn't even know it.
I kiss her lips passionately, warm like the sun. Every time I'm with her I forget who I am, that there is hope for me. That I can escape my past, that I'm not a monster, but a guy who's just unconditionally in love with a girl.
I hear a camera click and we turn our heads to see Alfred and Bruce smiling. I don't really get angry cause I know that she and I are going to look back when we're older. Val hides her head in my neck and finds comfort. I rest my head on her head and stay like this for as long as I can.

Val POV
After dinner, Damian and his family went on patrol and he promised me that they wouldn't stay out for too long. It was currently 8:45 and I was in Damian's bedroom watching Arthur Christmas with some cookies and warm milk. Alfred the cat and Titus were both on the bed, drinking the milk it soon ran out. Damn.
Getting up with my cup I went to the kitchen opening the smeg anti-fingerprint fridge and I pulled the carton of milk. Closing the fridge I saw a boy with black hair with sapphire blue eyes that was probably just around Damian's height and a red and green sweater.
"Hi," I said
"Uh-, um, hi," he said nervously
"You must be from the Kent family, I heard they're coming over," I say
"Y-, yeah, I'm Kent-, gah, I mean Same-, I mean Jonathan Samuel Kent. I mean Jon, my name is Jon," he stuttered.
I just tilted my head, and just smiled. "I'm Val,"
"Nice to meet you!" he beamed
"Well same here," I say
"Wait do you know about the thing?" he asked
"As in that, the Waynes are superheroes yeah," I say
"Oh, phew, great. I'm horrible with lying. I'm superboy, Superman son," he smiled
Was this the person that Damian was talking about? He seemed so sweet.
"So your the one that Damian was talking about," I say
"Really?! You know him, we're best friends. How do you know him?!" Jon said
"Ah, we net at the teen titans tower," I say
"Wait, are you a titan?! I'm such a big fan, I wish I was one, but mom won't let me. Do you know Valkyrie?" He said
"Um, yes. I'm actually Valkyrie," I say
"REALLY?! Holy snickerdoodles! It is a HUGE honour to meet you! You're my favourite titan!" he says
I'm honestly flattered.
"One second," he says super speeds out.
Jon POV
Alfred told us that Damian and the rest were out on patrol. Ever since he joined the Titans I really wanted to join. I've seen the news about them, they were amazing. Of course, my favourite was Valkyrie, she was amazing. Yes, I have a little crush on her, fine a big crush on her! I even wrote a story of her and I being together in my diary. Yes, mom gave me one, don't judge. Sadly Connor found out about it and constantly teases me about it.
Going to the kitchen to get some water, I saw a girl with a black sweater getting some milk from the fridge.
"Hi," she said
I was blushing, shit. Say something.
"Uh, um hi," I said
"You must be from the Kent family, I heard they're coming over," she says
"Y-, yeah, I'm Kent-, gah, I mean Same-, I mean Jonathan Samuel Kent. I mean Jon, my name is Jon," I stuttered.
she just tilted her head, and just smiled. "I'm Val,"
Wow, wow, wow, wow. She was so pretty!
"Nice to meet you!" I beamed
"Well same here," she says nicely
"Wait do you know about the thing?" I asked making sure
"As in that, the Waynes are superheroes yeah," she says
"Oh, phew, great. I'm horrible with lying. I'm superboy, Superman son," I smiled
"So you're the one that Damian was talking about," she says
"Really?! You know him, we're best friends. How do you know him?!" I rambled
"Ah, we met at the teen titans tower," she says
Wait, she can know Valkyrie.
"Wait, are you a titan?! I'm such a big fan, I wish I was one, but mom won't let me. Do you know Valkyrie?" He said
"Um, yes. I'm actually Valkyrie," she says
Oh, my God! My Christmas wish has come true! Jonathan, breathe. Act cool
"REALLY?! Holy snickerdoodles! It is a HUGE honour to meet you! You're my favourite titan!"I blurted out
So much for acting cool
"One second," I say and super speed out to mom who was with Connor.
"Mom, mom, mom, mom," I say
"what is it, honey?" she says
"Valkryieishere!" I say
"Honey slow down," she puts her hands on my shoulders and I breathe in and out slowly.
"Valkyrie is here, in this house. Connor get me a piece of paper and a pen," I say
"Let me guess, you rambled everything you said," he said
"It doesn't matter! Mom, mom, mom what do I do?" I ask with rainbows in my eyes.
"Has anyone seen Alfred?" Dad said
"Dad, not now!" I say
"What happen to you?" dad says
"Valkryie is here," Mom says and dad does an 'oh' face.
"Hey," comes another voice it was Val. Oh god, oh god.
"Hi," I say nervously.
"Um, you kinda left in a hurry, so I went to check on you," she says
And she's sweet.
"I'm fine, can you sign something for me?" I say
"Um... sure?" she says
Connor hands me a piece of paper and pencil and I grab it and give it to her. She signs it and gives to me and I instantly hug it. I'm going to frame this when I get home.
"Hi, I'm Clark," Dad says holding a hand out and she shakes it. "Val,"
Mom introduces herself and as well as Connor.
"Well, I'm going head back," she says

Damian POV
Heading back after a few hours of patrol was fine, there were a few thugs out there and Jason constantly made Santa and Christmas jokes. Honestly, all I wanted was to be with Val next to the crackling fire.
"Damian!" I heard a voice.
Oh no.
Taking off my mask I saw Jon and behind him the rest of his family. He instantly pulled me into a hug.
"Kent, get off," I say
And he lets go. Father just gives me a look to be nice and I roll my eyes. Tim talks with Connor and Bruce talks with his parents,
"Damian you've gotten so tall!" Louis says I put on a small, small smile.
"How are you, Ms Kent?" I say, trying to be 'nice'.
"I'm fine, Jon was excited to see you," I turn to Jon who was just smiling and fidgeting a lot.
"Your presence was-, unexpected," I say "You're happier than usual,"
"He met his crush," Connor snickered.
I raised a brow.
"Yeah, Valkyrie! She's here! Gah-, she's amazing!" he rambles
I blink a few times, my brothers', Father and Alfred's expression changed into an 'oh no' face.
"What?" he says
I slowly pull my Katana out making a 'SHING' noise.
I tug my lips and my other hand goes into a fist shape "Kent..." I pull out my sword.
"THAT'S MY F*ING GIRLFRIEND!!!" I growl.
"Oh, no," he says
"Run," I growl.
(It didn't end so nicely btw)

Val POV
The movie finished and I closed the laptop. Damian's bed was so soft, luxurious no doubt. I got up to look at the frames on Damian's table. They were all me, either him and I or just me. How did I get so lucky? I fall back on the bed and Titus just licks my face. The door opens and I get up to see Damian.
"Damian!" I say and hug him.
Instead, he just kisses me everywhere. This was a jealousy kiss.
"Babe," I pull him apart. "What's wrong?"
"You know Jon-"
"Yeah met him, didn't know I have fans," I say
"He said he had a crush on you and I-"
"Hey, hey. I told you. I love you, and you only. Nothing will ever change that," I say assuringly
He hides his head in my neck once again like it was his retreat from the world.
I watched the snowfall outside of the tinted windows.
Merry Christmas
