1.

When the first time it happened, they were at Batburger. While Cassie was telling them about whatever she did with Donna when she was at Themyscira, Kon was too busy admiring his boyfriend (YES HIS BOYFRIEND FUCK YEAH KON!!!!!). “Dude, stop looking at Tim like that it’s so fucking scary” Bart said while inhaling his 7th burger or something. Just as Kos was about to say something to him, Stephanie approached them with a huge smile that’s too big for an average Gothamite. “Hi, guys! do you mind if I steal your birdie for a second?” she said while looking too excited. Without waiting for a response, she grabbed Tim by the arm and dragged him towards the door.

 

“Whoa whoa, Steph what’s the rush?”

 

“Oh, come on Tim! You know how important this for me.” She said while giggling.

 

After they got out of the restaurant, the non-bat heroes couldn’t hear what they were saying. Well technically, Kon could just use his super-hearing but somehow Tim can always tell when he uses that to spy on Tim and he gets mad. Like really mad and sue Kon for not wanting to sleep on the couch!! “Anyways, as I was saying…” Cassie continued telling the story from where she left. But Kon was too focused on the two figures right outside the restaurant to actually pay attention.

 

He knew that Tim wouldn’t cheat on him or fall out of love, but Kon was still insecure as fuck. Well he couldn’t do much about his insecurities, since every person around his age he dated before Tim was a proud lesbian now. He literally turned them all lesbian. Wow. He wonders if he was going to turn Tim straight. Can a bisexual even turn straight? Whatever, the point is Kon wasn’t a fan of watching his boyfriend being too close and giggly with his ex right now. He was jealous, so what?

 

After what felt like eternity, they hugged and Steph got into her car and Tim came back to the table. Kon must’ve had a weird expression ‘cause Tim kissed his cheek and said “Sorry, it was important.” under his breath. Then he sit down and started chatting with the others. Kon wasn’t sure what they were talking about at the moment. He was too busy trying to figure out if him being jealous of something so stupid normal or he should see a therapist.

 

 

2.

Kon and Tim were staying at the Kent Farm. Ma was visiting Clark in Metropolis for the weekend and she needed someone to feed the animals, so she asked Kon to come to the farm. The boys thought it was a good idea to spend the whole weekend there by theirselves to take a break from this whole caped hero thing.

 

Now they were sleeping in Kon’s old bed with Krypto curled up on their feet. More like Tim is sleeping and Kon is admiring him. Sunlight streamed through the curtains, hitting Tim's face and highlighting his features. Wally West can be the fastest man alive but Conner Kent was definitely the luckiest man alive. Like what good deed could he have possibly done to deserve dating someone like that?

 

After staring at his boyfriend for a while, Kon decided to make them some breakfast. After he got up from his bed, he took a pant from the floor and wore it. Then he floated towards stairs. Seeing his movements, Krypto quickly got up and floated next to him. When he was downstairs he moved towards to the little record players. He picked up the Nevermind album vinyl record and put it in the record player while humming a song from the album.

 

While he was making some pancakes for them, a phone rang. The phone ring startled Kon (A Kryptonian everyone!!!). It was Tim’s phone. Right, after dinner they got caught up in the moment and immediately went to his old bedroom. Kon used his TTK to bring the phone to himself just to see ‘Steph’ on the caller id. It was too early for any of the bats to be awake in Gotham. There must be something that went wrong for her to be awake at this hour. Steph was still Kon’s friend too so he answered the call.

 

“Finally you picked up oh my god.”

 

“Steph, it’s Kon”

 

“Kon? Sorry girl, I think I accidentally called you. I meant to call someone el-“

 

“No it’s Tim’s phone. He is still sleeping.”

 

“Ohhh, okay okay. Can you tell him to call me back when wakes up?”

 

“You can just tell me what you were gonna say, you know? Unless it’s some bat stuff.” Kon laughed nervously.

 

“Nope. Sorry Kon, no can do. It’s something between him and me.”

 

What the fuck can it be that something between those two. It can be some qualified bat stuff but the others would know about that too. What if Tim is actually tired of him and he just realized he wants Steph back and- okay Kon, you need to stop being insecure as fuck. Kon was probably being unreasonable right now but what can he do.

 

“Alright then, bye Steph.”

 

“Bye!!”

 

A while after the phone call, Tim came downstairs. He was still half asleep, wearing one of Kon’s old shirts and some sweatpants. God, Kon loved that man. Kon looked at him with love stuck smile on his face “Morning, Sunshine.” Tim mumbled something and hugged Kon from behind.

 

“Pancakes are almost ready. You can just sit down.”

 

“Nooo. I’m perfect fine here.”

 

“If you say so.”

 

And just like that, Kon forgot about what he was thinking 5 minutes ago. Did he mention that he was the luckiest man alive?

 

 

3.

They were at a club in Gateway City to celebrate Cassie’s new job. It wasn’t easy for a hero without secret identity to find a job. Cissie was a sleepy drunk and she was clinging on Cassie while squeezing her biceps time to time. Cassie and Tim were debating about which drag queen is better, clearly both of them are drunk. Bart was complaining to Kon about how unfair it is for them not being able to get drunk, as if it’s Kon’s fault.

 

When they were talking, a song of Charli XCX started playing. Even though Kon loved Bart so so so so much, he was getting tired of his complaining. And who doesn’t love Charlie XCX? So Kon leaned on Tim’s ear “Wanna dance?” Tim nodded with a happy expression on his face and turned to others.

 

“We are gonna dance are y’all gonna come?”

 

“YES YES YES!!!!! Sitting here is so boring!”

 

“Calm down Imp, Cissie is sleeping. You guys go, we’ll come if she wakes up.”

 

Tim took Kon’s hand and started dragging him to the dance floor, as if it wasn’t Kon who suggested it. Yup, Tim was drunk. When Kon realized Bart wasn’t with them, he quickly looked around and he realized that Bart is already dancing with a good looking guy. His friend was definitely gonna get laid tonight, good for him.

 

While they were dancing, Kon wrapped his arms around Tim’s waist and started kissing him. When Tim tilted his neck, Kon immediately leaned towards his neck and started giving him litte hickeys, while Tim is rewarding him with little moans.

 

Kon was thinking about if him and Tim could fit in the restroom when a familiar blonde approached them.

 

“Whoa! You two are aware that you guys are still in public, right?”

 

“Steph? What the hell are you doing in Gateway?” Tim quickly covered the hickeys with his hand.

 

“Relax, Timbers! I’m just visiting a friend from college! Also you look like a fucking tomato, you aren’t hiding anything your hands.” Steph giggled, while patting Tim’s back.

 

A friendly gesture, Kon. A FRIENDLY GESTURE. Something Kon does to his friends all the time. Someone needs to help Kon to stop being jealous over anything.

 

“Oh! And also, dont forget about our date on thursday! Bye bye guys! Have fun swapping spits in public!” Steph laughed while she was going towards her friends.

 

Did she just say date?

 

Kon knew he shouldn’t just accuse his boyfriend, so he forced a smile and “What date is she talking about?” Tim sighed while his face is still painted red because of embarrassment.

 

“There is no date. She’s just joking, it’s just a normal hang out.”

 

“Sooo, what are you two gonna do during that ‘hang out’?”

 

Tim looked physically annoyed at the question so he wrapped his arms around Kon’s neck and pulled his lip ring with his teeth. “Come on babe, who cares about that? Can we just keep going from where we left?” Conner Kent was a weak man.

 

“Great Hera! Can you guys not dry hump eachother for 5 minutes?” Cassie was saying that, as if she wasn’t gonna do much worse with Cissie when they get back to her apartment.

 

“Why the fuck you look like some kicked your puppy?” Cissie pointed at Kon.

 

“Maybe because you two are NOT letting me kiss my boyfriend. Huh, Ciss?”

 

Cissie looked unimpressed. She clearly knew that he was lying but thankfully didn’t comment on it. It was fine as long as Tim doesn’t realize it. Which is something incredibly hard considering the fact his boyfriend was knows as ‘World’s Second Greatest Detective.”

 

Even drunk Cissie was aware of his jealousy.

 

 

4.

When the fourth time it happened; Kon and Tim were cuddling on the couch of their apartment, trying to find something to watch.

 

“We are not watching THAT.”

 

“Come on Rob! Why not?”

 

“Babe, we already finished the entire ‘Wendy the Werewolf Stalker’ like 10 times already. Can we just watch something new?” Tim said while playing with the taller boys curls.

 

Kon was a weak man. Tim can make Kon do anything if he calls him pet names. Tim definitely wasn’t aware of that ‘cause he would probably think he is forcing Kon to do things and would stop calling him pet names. “Okay soo.. what about Legally Blonde? They just released a show based on that movie.” Kon said, while kissing his lovers chin and neck. Tim nodded while he puts on Legally Blonde.

 

They were halfway through the movie and Kon was the happiest man alive. He loved chick flicks and he was madly in love with his boyfriend. Literally nothing was better than watching a chick flick movie while cuddling his boyfriend. So he was purring without realizing. Then Tim’s phone rang. He patted Kon softly before picking up the phone and said, “Honey, I need to take this.”. Even if he didn’t want to stop cuddling his boyfriend, the person on the phone could be his future father-in-law and he wasn’t feeling like getting exposed to tons of kryptonite. When they were finally(sadly) separated Tim answered the phone.

 

“Hi Steph, what’s up?”

 

Right, Steph. Kon wasn’t even sure why he was jealous this much. Steph was a nice person and she was fun to be around. Kon knew he was being unreasonable, hell he was really close with his exes too. But still he couldn’t help but feel annoyed when it comes to Tim and Steph. He must’ve stopped purring cause Tim looked him and mouted ‘Are you okay?’. Kon just nodded and gave him a weak smile.

 

“Look, I like the second place the most. It’s the most romantic one and yes I’ll be there.”

 

What? Why would Tim go to a romantic place with Steph?

 

“Yes I won’t forget to bring the flowers. I honestly don’t understand why are we keeping this a secret from her. She can basically tell if we are lying or not just by looking at us.”

 

Kon knew who ‘she’ was. It was Cassandra Cain. Tim’s sister, Steph’s best friend and Kon’s lesbian ex-kinda-girlfriend. What if they were actually secretly dating and hiding it even from Cass. Okay Kon, Chill the fuck out. You don’t know that for sure. Maybe they are just planning to do a surprise party for Cass in a very romantic place!

 

“Okay, sure. Anyways I gotta go bye!” Tim said right before he hang up. Then he threw himself on top of Kon with a grunt. Then Kon brought himself to ask “What was that about?” while petting his hair gently. “Nothing important. Soon you’ll find out anyways” Tim said while his voice sounded muffled since he was too busy cuddling Kon. Yup, that made Kon suspicious as fuck. But he didn’t want to immediately come to the conclusion so he was gonna talk to someone about it.

 

Bart was a big no, he was REALLY bad at keeping secrets. If he was wrong and Tim wasn’t cheating on him Cassie and Cizsie would never let him live it down, so they were a big no too. Kara was off world and he would rather die than talk to Clark about his best friends son. He could just go visit Roxy actually. She is a brutally honest person and he hasn’t seen her in a while so it could be nice to visit her.

 

“Hey, Tim?”

 

“Mm?”

 

“I’m planning to go to Miami tomorrow.”

 

Tim looked up with a confusing expression. His bangs were messy from him nuzzling in Kon’s chest. He was looking so cute like that. No Kon-el! Focus!!!!

 

“What for?”

 

Kom shrugged.

 

“I haven’t been there for a while. Plus it would be nice to catch up with Roxy. Tomorrow is my off day anyways.”

 

Tim nodded and gave him a quick peck.

 

 

5.

It was afternoon when Kon went to Miami. Since it was still summer, the weather was really hot and the beaches were full. Kon was originally planning to wait an hour or two until Roxy’s shift ends but the blonde was sitting on a bench, texting something furiously on her phone. Kon decided to land next to her.

 

“Roxy! How you been?”

 

“Superboy! What are you doing here?” Her eyes immediately lit up when she saw Kon.

 

“I’m here to see you. Also I kinda need a relationship advice.” Kon chuckled nervously while scratching his neck.

 

“The good ol’ Superboy has trouble bagging a girl? You are off your game S.B.!”

 

“No, not like that. l’m dating a guy right now. He’s great! But I feel he might’ve been cheating on me and I dont’t really want to jump into a conclusion.”

 

“Oh! Red Robin, right? I saw some news about you two being a thing but I just assumed it was fake news. Sorry for assuming something else at the start, honey.”

 

Superboy and Red Robin’s relationship wasn’t a secret. At first they planned to keep it a secret since Tim Drake was a big name in the magazine world and it would raise suspicions if both Tim and Red Robin started dating a guy from Metropolis. But after 3 months they just said ‘fuck it’ and stopped hiding their relationship.

 

Kon told Roxy about everything that made him think that way, without giving names of course, and asked Roxy what she was thinking. She looked at him with a sympathetic smile.

 

“Take off you jacket.”

 

“What?”

 

“Take off you jacket, Superboy. I’m not gonna hug with all those spikes on you.”

 

“Oh.” Kon knew what that meant. She was also thinking that he is cheating on him.

 

After he took off his jacket, Roxy hugged him while stroking in soothing circles on his shoulder. “Oh, I’m so sorry honey.” she mumbled. “‘s okay..” It was in fact

NOT okay.

 

They stood like that for 10 minutes before Roxy pulled away. “Hey, it’s not the end of the world, alright? How about we eat some ice cream?” Kon nodded.

 

While they were eating their ice cream, Kon’s phone buzzed. It was Tim. “Is that him?” “ Mhm.”

 

Sunshine❤️

 

Hey babe

No no

She is just happy ab smth

Also family dinner at manor this saturday

Oop gtg

take care sunshine

 

Kon looked at Roxy with an exhausted expression, “She is at our apartment with him right now.” “You should confront him.” Kon looked at his ice cream. Great, it already melted. “I’ll do it this sunday.”

 

He didn’t want to ruin the family dinner. So he was gonna talk with him after that.

 

 

+1.

It was time for the family dinner. When Tim and Kon went to the dinner room, the whole family was there. Even though Kon’s the only invulnerable one here, he was so fucking scared of the bats. And the price of being a bats long term boyfriend was having to eat dinner with Batman once a week. Bruce doesn’t really like him, and he doesn’t understand why he is such a girl dad towards Tim while his daughter is sitting right next to him.

 

After Tim and Kon sat down, Steph came to the room while looking a little bit too excited. She glanced at Tim, then threw a little pebble at Damian. “What was that for, Brown?” Damian looked annoyed.

 

“Just paying back to Timmy.”

 

“Timothy, explain.”

 

“Shhhh! Just wait Dames, you’ll understand in a minute!”

 

Steph looked at Cass and gestured her to come to her with her hand. Cass came to her with a lovesick expression on her face “Hi.” Steph smiled at her so lovingly “Hi.”

 

What the fuck was happening?

 

“Okay if everyone’s here me and Cass has an announcement to make.”

 

“Steph asked me out the other day, we are now dating.”

 

Ohhhh. Yup, That made sense.

 

“Congrats!”, “Took you long enough”, “I thought you guys were already dating!”, “No, you didn’t Jay.” Everyone was saying something, all positive. But the girls eyes were locked in Bruce, waiting for his approval. Bruce in the other hand was too stunned to speak.

 

Bruce encouraged himself to get up and walked towards to the girls. He hugged them both and leaned on Steph’s ear. “If you ever made her cry, I hope that you know what’s waiting for you, Stephanie.” Steph nodded frantically. “Congratulations, girls. I hope you two will be really happy together.” Then he kissed his daughters temple before going back to his seat.

 

Tim leaned towards Kon “Sorry, hon. She asked me specifically to not tell you, she didn’t want to risk it to you telling Cass about this.” He had an apologetic smile on his face.

 

“Oh my god. Babe, Honey, Sunshine, Love of my life, please don’t dump me after I say this.”

 

Tim looked concerned now. Which is fair. “What happened?” He asked carefully.

 

“I may or may not think that you were cheating on me with Steph. I’m so sorry, I’m so fucking stupid. Please don’t break up with me, I would literally die without you. I should’ve kno-“ Kon’s rambling was cut off with soft lips on his.

 

“Oh honey, it’s okay. I’m just glad that you didn’t break up with me withiut an explanation before today.”

 

“Come on, Timbers! It’s Steph and Cass’ day today not you and the clones!”

 

“Shut up, Jason.”

 

Kon was just glad that his boyfriend was in fact NOT cheating on him. Conner Kent may be the dumbest guy alive, but he was still the luckiest man alive by dating Timothy Jackson Drake-Wayne.
