Chapter Text
A week later Stephanie was already in her home, with a promise of taking it easy, to Leslie, and with Babs she set up bi-weekly appointments to deal with the affects of her trauma. The Doc also gave her pills if she ever had anymore nightmares and Stephanie was so grateful she hugged her right then and there.
Two weeks later, Jason and Stephanie woke up early in the morning and were walking to Gotham U. Steph had no limp, the bruises around her eye were no longer there, and Leslie approved of how well both her stitches were taken care of. Stephanie was pleased.
"I'm still nervous." Jason said staring at her, hands shaking in his pockets while a light snow was falling over them.
"Jay, we've been studying non-stop for the past three weeks, I honestly can't see you not getting in. Plus, you said the test went well." She assured him, walking closely to him for his body heat.
"But what happens if I don't get in?" He asked while passing the university gate. They were a few steps from the main building's entrance.
"Then we'll tackle that issue head on, and find a different way, I promise." She nudged him with her elbow.
He looked at her, hoping that it wouldn't have to come to that, he wanted this so bad.
"You ready?" She was about to open the doors.
"Nope." And they entered.
The heat was greeting them very kindly as well as the woman at the reception.
"Jason Todd?" A soft voice came from her.
"Yeah." He unzipped his jacket.
She searched through her drawers of files and gave him a letter with his name on it before getting a call and rushing to a different section of the building.
"Thanks…" He let out a shaky breath while she was already gone.
Stephanie held his arm, reassuring him.
"You can do this." She said.
Jason opened the letter and started skimming through the words as quickly as he could, while Steph was checking his expression. Jason looked confused for a moment before letting out a happy shriek. "Ohmygod!" He squealed, overflowing with happiness.
"You got in!" Steph shouted, beaming at him.
Jason picked her up and twirled her in the air around him while laughing.
He almost dropped her when he realized what he just did.
"Fuck! Sorry." He turned away, quickly, still holding the letter.
Steph laughed, that was really fun.
"It's ok," She was still laughing, and touched his shoulder so he would face her again.
"Sorry…" He chuckled, rubbing his neck.
"It's fucking fine!" Stephanie said gripping his big shoulders, seriously trying to convince him, but still smiling.
Jason looked at her smile, but didn't lift his eyes from her lips when the smile calmed.
He looked at her eyes, almost like he was asking permission.
Steph gave it to him, and went on her tippy toes to reach his lips.
Soft and sweet. Steph decided, that this was way more fun.
The kiss stopped with Jason smiling in her lips and started giggling, looking really happy.
Steph grinned, selfishly pleased with his reaction "You ok?"
Jason didn't answer, just muttered "Giddy…" in her lips and gave her another happy smooch.
