WAYNE MANOR
NOVEMBER 5th
17:58 p.m.
The nightmare of a confrontation plagued Noelle's mind for the rest of the until she approached the gates of Wayne Manor. True to her word, Noelle told Daniel about her relationship with Robin (to an extent, of course). According to her, their relationship was mildly friendly, nothing more.
The confrontation was quickly replaced with the sudden anxiety of approaching those large gates. Before she could press the button to talk to whomever, the gate buzzes and slowly opens itself.
"We're still trying to keep this a surprise for Master Damian," chimes a British voice from the intercom. Noelle nods her head and says nothing.
The driveway was, for some reason, longer than expected. Her shoes tap against the concrete. Her eyes scan the enormous mansion as she approaches. So many windows seemed to look out at the beautifully sculpted front yard. I wonder if any of those are Damian's room.
She passes the hedges trimmed to look like animals and statues. The outside of the place is beautiful, for lack of better words. She could only imagine what the inside was like.
This isn't wrong, is it?
Noelle lets out a nervous breath as she approaches the large double doors. Noelle opened her home for him, but he's never mentioned his own. Of course, that was when she didn't know his identity, but recent events could have led to a mention of his home life. Damian had no idea she was coming over for dinner. What if he got mad? Jason reassured her multiple times if he were to get mad, it'd be at his brothers and never at her.
Before Noelle could even use the handles to knock, the door opens. An older gentleman dressed in a butler's uniform greets her with a warm smile.
"Miss King," he greets before opening the door wider. "Welcome, the others are waiting for you inside."
Noelle gives a sheepish grin before stepping inside. "You must be Mr. Pennyworth," she greets back. "Damian's told me a little about you. Uh, thank you. Are the others—"
"Patiently waiting for you to psyche our little brother out?" A deep, gruff voice chimes, making Noelle look over. Three grown men grin eagerly as they approach.
"Jason?" Noelle guesses with a small smile, looking at the one who seemed the most punchable (at least, that's how Damian described him). He gives a small bow, making the two standing in either side of him roll their eyes. "Dick," she identifies the one that looks most like Damian (despite the lack of shared DNA). "Tim?" The shorter one gives two thumbs up and a grin.
"You're a good guesser," Dick notes, nodding his head at her with crossed arms.
"Damian's mentioned you three" she admits, unconsciously looking away from them to admire the inside decor of the manor. "He thinks you can be annoying sometimes, but Jason's worse." She forces herself to look back at them, her amber eyes lighting up again. "Hi, I'm Noelle."
Her cheeks heat up a little as she offers her hand for them to shake. The three laugh, pretty loudly by the way, considering they wanted her to be a surprise.
"Sweetie, you're family now, like it or not," Jason laughs a little more before patting her shoulder. Noelle lowers her hand awkwardly, confused.
"Look, Damian's a total ass," Tim explains after noticing her confusion, "but lately, he's been a little less of one and that's all because of you."
