Paying attention to the road, Dick smiled when Stephanie shared her preferences with him. He had already figured that much, but that's what made it more fun for him. Half the time, he lived on things he bought at the supermarket or ordered through DoorDash. It was way easier for him, and he didn't care if it was top of the line or a convenient, market-fresh option.
Now and then, he'd spring for a treat, and if he had a girl with him, all the better. "It's not about being a top-shelf girl or not, it's about having a great date, and doing things you wouldn't normally do. Live the fantasy for the night. Why not? I don't care if you love it or not. If you want to order something else later, go ahead, but at least try one bottle. You know? Say you did it."
Reaching over after shifting, Dick squeezed her thigh and ran his hand downward toward her knee to rest there until he needed to shift again. "What's your normal drink of choice?" He asked, curious.
She turned to look at him again, grinning as she watched him focus on the road. It wasn't like she didn't already know everything about her neighborhood, and he was a much better view. All handsome and sexy. "Fine, I'll try it. I mean, I doubt I'd hate it? It's just not the first thing I reach for."
And then his hand was sliding down to her bare knee, which she also enjoyed. How long had it been since anyone touched her outside of a quick friendly hug or a less friendly punch to the face? "I don't really have a drink of choice. I don't really get many chances to drink." Especially between being only twenty and also having her particular brand of night job instead of making her way over to parties at school, there wasn't a lot of opportunity for her. "So I don't know. Maybe some kind of cider? Or some kind of fruity mixed drink? I like things to actually taste good."
"Try is all I ask, and we'll order something else for you straight away as well. This is a date after all, and who am I to say no to you on a first date?" He was mostly playful with everything he said, but he was serious about finding something that she would like to drink. He understood that they both had busy night jobs and that she was younger than most gaining entrance to places like this. Strange enough, the teens in his household got ahold of his alcohol no matter where he hid it in his room. Secret panels were no challenge for Titans or a new Robin.
He swished his lips from one side to another as he drove around the corner and noticed that the line for the club had already wrapped around the building. Luckily, he was VIP, and they wouldn't have to worry about that. "I think that you might enjoy a Lemondrop Martini. They are delicious, sweet and sour, and I know that you can have quite a few without a hangover if you're not drinking much champagne. If you're drinking champagne, it's best to stick to it; otherwise, your stomach may not appreciate what you add next. At least in my experience." Pulling up to the valet entrance, Dick got out of the car while the valet opened up Stephanie's door.
He tossed over the keys and promised the guy an extra tip if the car was in the same condition when it was returned. Moving around the back, he gripped her hand and led her toward the door. "You ready?"
"Hey, it's worth a try. I actually really like lemon stuff." So that had been a pretty lucky guess for Dick. Seeing the people lined up outside of that particular building wasn't weird to her, it usually looked like that when she worked. The odd thing, to her, was that she was actually going in there. Not in a bad way or anything, just in a "Huh, never expected to be going somewhere this fancy" kind of way.
Tugging the strap of her bag over her shoulder, Stephanie climbed out of the car and took his hand, lacing their fingers together. "Yep, I'm ready," she replied simply as he led her towards the door and right past the long line. Out of the corner of her eye, where she always kept at least part of her attention, she noticed the glares they got as they walked up to the doorman and got inside without having to wait like the rest of them. Thankfully, Steph wasn't easily bothered by people like that.
As the crowd drew closer around them, Dick moved his hand from hers to wrap it securely around Stephanie's waist. He didn't want her getting lost in the mayhem before they even got inside. A brief discussion with the bouncer at the door had the rope opened, and Dick and Stephanie were ushered in. It's a beautiful club with blue lights everywhere, and specialty lighting leading up to the stage where a woman is performing a complicated pole dance.
A part of Dick wants to stop to watch what the woman is doing, to appreciate the fine art, but he moves to his secluded booth with Stephanie. Their champagne and caviar already await them there, and while they are hidden from the view of the majority of patrons, they have a first-rate view of what's on stage. "She's amazing. It takes a great deal of skill to do that. That's one of the reasons we came here. They also have male dancers who come around. Plus, there's fire eating while they dance. Insane." He pulls Stephanie in close and keeps his arm around her. "As soon as the waitress swings by, I'll order that drink. If you want anything else, another appetizer, anything, let me know."
Stephanie paused for a moment before sliding into the booth, looking down at the dancer on the pole. "Whelp, that's something I don't think I can do," she said, chuckling softly to herself as she leaned into Dick's side, then turned to look up at him with a playful smirk on her face. "Wouldn't surprise me if you could though."
Honestly, she was like 95% sure that the other Dick could, at least, since he was the most acrobatic person she'd ever encountered. Which... made sense because he was an acrobat. But this was an alternate Earth version of Dick and who knew how different their stories were?
"This is already a lot though," she added, gesturing vaguely at the everything around them. From the club to the private booth, the refreshments on the table to the dancers. "I can't think of anything else I need. At least not yet."
Once they'd been settled, Dick laughed at Stephanie's observation of the woman on the pole. "Are you telling me that you can't slide open your legs to a ninety-degree angle? I thought everyone could do that." Still chuckling softly, he leaned down to her ear. Yes, the music was loud, but it wasn't so noisy that they couldn't hear one another talking. This allowed him to flirt unabashedly with her. "You're right, I can do that and a whole lot more. He and I are very much the same in that way, both acrobats. I don't fly through the night, from building to building, quite like he does, but I do something close."
It was still a weird feeling that he'd spent time talking to another version of himself. It gave him odd bits of knowledge that helped this run smoother, like knowing how different their Tims and Jasons were, and an idea that there were a lot more that helped Batman than this Dick could ever fathom. Right now, it boiled down to him and Stephanie, and she was far prettier than he had imagined when they struck up their conversation.
Handing over her glass, he picked up his own and lifted it in her direction, which wasn't far because of how close he had her tucked up against him. "To a good night of fun, and... a great date. To two incredible bats," He burst out laughing at the last part and shook his head. Calling himself incredible made him laugh, but he shook it off. "No, really, to the first part." He leaned his glass towards hers.
Steph was used to hearing people's voices in her ear, considering the comm she usually had stuck in it, but it felt very different when it was a hot person actually leaning down to speak into her ear directly. She was unable to help the very slight shudder she felt go through her, but she ignored it and turned to look up at him with a flirty grin instead. "I mean, I can, but not just in the air like that. Some of us had to learn gymnastics from free classes at the Y and school teams."
Chuckling, she took the glass and tapped it gently against his before taking a sip. "Hey, this is pretty good," she said simply before setting it down on the table. "But to be fair? This is already the best date I've had in a very long time. That probably says something about the state of my social life, huh? Since we've literally just gotten here." Stephanie had been good and single for going on two years, which was absolutely preferable to dating Tim, but that also meant she hadn't managed to get close to anyone in a long time. Plus she was on-and-off with Tim for three years and he wasn't exactly the best at non-costumed dates very often. Even after she finally learned his real name.
But with Dick, here she was, sitting in a private booth in the fanciest strip club around. See? Worlds better.
Leaning back down, it seemed that Dick couldn't get close enough. He closed his body language completely across hers. There were quite a few men who had walked by their booth and offered very lewd gestures with their eyes. Dick was fairly certain that Stephanie was probably as good at reading them as he was. He was also showing that this woman was his for the night, and no one was getting close. They could pay for their dates. "It's a good thing you didn't tell me about the gymnastics thing before we left; I might have asked you to show me. Then who knows where we would have ended up?" He laughed and leaned back some then.
One arm stayed around her back, holding her, while the other had his champagne so that he could sip on it. When the waitress showed, he ordered her a lemon drop martini and a whiskey for himself. He also ordered a plate of nachos. They had some of the best he'd ever had in town. Far better than fish eggs, in his opinion, don't tell that to Bruce.
"I'm glad you are enjoying things so far. I can arrange for a male dancer whenever you'd like. He can dance privately for us. This booth has a wall that stretches around for private showings. I can admit that this is the best date I've been on in a very, very long time, which is probably why I want to spoil you so much. It doesn't hurt that you're gorgeous, and hilarious too."
She noticed the creeps as they went by, but Stephanie was more than happy to ignore all of them in favor of the gorgeous man leaning into her space. And she wasn't about to complain about him getting in her space, either. She smirked a bit more at his comment about her gymnastics, though. "I probably would have said something about you needing to wait until later for me to give a demonstration, but I'm just decently passable anyway. I wasn't raised in a circus like some people."
"Ooh, I love nachos." That just had to be added in there before she continued. "Of course I like it so far. I mean, come on. Why wouldn't I? But hey, unless you also want to see a male dancer, there's no need to get one just for me. I'm actually bi, so she-" Stephanie gestured towards the stage, "-is good enough for my eyes." And there was also the added fact that she'd never actually been around exotic dancers before? There really were some hot ones there though.
"That's why I didn't ask you to do any gymnastics when you showed up. I figure if we need to show our flexibility, there will be time for that later." Dick's fingers played at Stephanie's waist, tracing along her top and the edge of the sequence. It was a delightful sensation. "Yeah, our stories are the same there. Circus, parents, I went a little more unhinged than he did, I think. I let the guy who killed my parents be killed. I'm not sure if he did that. It's part of the reason I knew I was getting lost in the violence." He takes a sip of champagne.
"Bruce took me in, but like I said, my Bruce is a lot older. Maybe we can swing by the mansion sometime. I can show you my old bedroom." There was a slightly insinuating tone in that last part, switching the night back to something flirty and fun and away from the serious thoughts Dick had brought up. The waitress brought out their drinks and informed them that it would be a few minutes before the nachos arrived.
"Really? See, I am attracted to guys, but I've never been with one; I've only been with females. I haven't found a guy that I mesh with like that yet. It's good we like them both. It will make sitting on a park bench more fun. We can check out everyone who walks by together."
Nodding, Stephanie let her right hand drop down to rest on Dick's thigh and took another sip of her champagne. "My parents are both alive, but I often wish that wasn't the case for my dad. He's, uh. Cluemaster. In case you don't have him in your Gotham he's a third-rate Riddler knockoff that has tried to kill me several times." She shrugged then. "And my mom's sober now, but she was a heavy pill popper up until just a couple years ago.
Shrugging her shoulder, Steph set down her glass and gave the waitress a sweet smile as she thanked her before turning her attention back to her date.
"See, I've never actually been with a woman either, but that doesn't mean much since I've only had like... two boyfriends. I'm well aware that I'm into both anyway."
"Nah, we don't have him yet. I know the Riddler, though. He's in Arkham right now. Sorry, your parents were a disappointment. This Bruce made me sign a paper stating that I'd never fear anything, after sending me out in the dark at around ten with a knife and a wolf running around. I killed it, but damn. I was so fucking scared until after it was dead. Then, well. Ego." Bruce taught his lessons in a strange manner, but at least he had someone. "It's good your mom is sober." Dick nodded. He was ready to leave this topic, and the waitress cut the conversation at the right point.
Sipping from his drink, Dick tipped his head and laughed softly. "At least we're both consistent somewhere. I have been with a fair share of women, but dated only a few, and I really messed those relationships up. I took some time to work on that and my thoughts about things. I learned a lesson or two from my Teen Titans. Smart buggers. Figured it was time to try out my dating skills again." Dick pressed a kiss next to her ear and glanced only briefly at the waitress who dropped off the nachos.
"You are, by far, the best-looking girl here. We could get one to lap dance for us, and I'd love to see what she thinks of you. The best rule about these dances? They can't touch you."
"Riddler sucks, by the way," Stephanie said, rolling her eyes a bit. "Not only did I get stuck with him crashing at my house for three months at one point, but his riddles? They suck. I was solving that shit when I was like eight." She was letting go of the father angle, though, at least for now. Maybe some other time she would tell him about how she came to be so good at all things puzzly.
The kiss beside her ear came as a surprise and sent a bit of a shudder down the back of her neck - the good kind of shudder - and she grinned slightly bashfully. It was obvious she liked even that small show of affection. "I've only actually dated two guys, and both those relationships were... bad. But I've also taken the last while to figure myself out a bit. So I get that." But her face definitely flushed a good bit when he said she was the best-looking girl there. Steph highly doubted that was true, but it was still nice to hear compliments like that. "Um. Thank you? For- You're really hot, too. By the way. Which I'm sure you know." Oh. That's not exactly what she meant to say, but too late to take it back. It's not like it wasn't the absolute truth.
"But I mean, I wouldn't say no to a dancer coming in here though. Of either gender."
When the conversation passed about Gotham's most notorious for the time being. Dick figured he'd bring it all up later when they were in a quieter and centered place and could discuss their upbringings and lives. He really was interested in knowing more about her, and who she was and where she came from, because if it wasn't obvious, he was extremely attracted.
There was a magnetic pull that Dick couldn't explain. He might normally put an arm around a woman on a date as they walked through a crowd, but the kiss that he shared was beyond the norm, and yet he couldn't find it in himself to feel plussed by it. Nuzzling her neck while they talked sent pleasant shock waves down his spine and along his arms, bringing up the hairs that rested there. He could admit- it had been a long time since he'd felt like this.
There was a shake of Dick's head when she complimented him. He dropped his face onto her shoulder and laughed softly. "People say that, but I don't ever think about it. I don't feel anything more than terribly normal most of the time. You've got those eyes, and that wonderful nose that sets off all your features, and beautiful lips. Man, I keep thinking how soft they must feel." Dick licked his own without thinking about it and swept his hand along her perfectly gilded cheekbone.
"Let me call over the dancing host, and we can pick someone out to dance for us. If you see anyone you like, let me know and we'll get them right away."
Stephanie didn't even realize she was tilting her head to the side as he nuzzled at her neck, or that her eyes were drifting closed as he did so. Instead, she just enjoyed the sensations it was causing as well as just the feeling of Dick being so close to her in the first place. On the one hand, it felt like things were possibly escalating quickly, but on the other, who cared? At twenty years old she was an adult and able to decide for herself when she wanted to just enjoy something. Or someone. Norms be damned.
But then he was dropping his head and calling himself normal of all things, so she turned her head to be able to see him, at least a little. "Terribly normal? Well that's some bull. I've always thought you were hot." The version from her Earth, at least. Which, you know, looked like the one that was touching her and complimenting her. And no, she never told Tim that she was attracted to his brother-type-turned-actual-adoptive-brother. And then he was complimenting her again and Stephanie couldn't help the way her cheeks pinkened.
"Yeah, my nose really pulls my face together, huh?" she joked, downplaying the way he complimented her. Because she felt like she was the terribly normal one between the two of them. In pretty much all the ways. But she couldn't help the way her eyes dropped to watch when he licked his lips, or the way that made her face heat just a touch more.
"I mean every word that I say. I used to do a lot of fudging with words and lies by omission; that's a part of me I had to work on, so now I have a focus on only doing what's right and true for me. Like this, like you." Instead of calling the girl over right away to order a private dancer, Dick continues to stroke the contours of Stephanie's face. He finds her exotic and enticing. The last person he was with was Kory, and she was great, but it wasn't like this. Dawn came close, but he couldn't handle a relationship back then.
Leaning in, Dick brushed his lips softly against hers. It was like he was drawn in one magnet to another, poles attracting. Her lips were everything he thought they would be. He opened his mouth slightly so that he could run his tongue along her bottom lip, tasting and teasing. He hummed while he sampled the light flavors and slightly hidden darker ones.
Dick's hand rested against her thigh, and he squeezed it slightly. He knew it was far too forward for such an early date, but he couldn't be bothered to care. It felt right, she felt right.
Oh. Well, that surprised Steph. Which it probably shouldn't have, considering all the small signals he had been sending her for the last couple of minutes. But instead of it being the kind of surprise that made her pull away, it just caused her to suck in the smallest of gasps before their lips touched.
When they did touch, however, Stephanie's eyes slid closed and she leaned into it, being just as gentle and slow with the kiss as Dick was. She even parted her own lips for him as she tried to ignore things like the tiny sparks she felt wherever they were making contact, or that little hum that slipped out of him, because, let's be honest. Those things were a bit of a turn-on.
And that hand on her thigh certainly wasn't unwelcome, either. In return, she brought her own hand up to cup the side of Dick's neck gently, letting her thumb dance over the edge of his jaw as she let her tongue twist with his, savoring him as well.
While they kissed, Dick detected motion. It wasn't like Stephanie didn't contain absolutely all of his attention, but they were at a busy club and a part of him, the Nightwing part that always rested silently in the back, was gently aware of things that came and went in near proximity while they were distracted, delightfully so.
Licking across her tongue and then against her bottom lip as if it were a pause button, Dick gripped at her thigh a little tighter. He briefly tipped his head, keeping it pressed to hers as he did. "Lap dance, private, female and male, not timed." Why not go for both when they could? Turning his head back to her, he smiled and let out a long breath. "Wow. I knew it was going to be a good kiss, but you made it hard to think. I barely registered the waitress there with her jaw around her ankles. Once we get our privacy, we can close the curtains, and no one will see in here."
Leaning back in, Dick kissed Stephanie again and then again. Then he took the sweet flecks of sugar from the top of her drink and brushed them over her lips. Laughing softly, he licked and kissed her so he had them on his lips when they leaned in for their next kiss. This time, he didn't let up. He moved enough to pull her into him as they kissed, letting out another sound of pleasure. This one was closer to a moan than a sigh, or hum.
Stephanie couldn't help the soft chuckle that escaped her when Dick broke the kiss to order the dancers. "Me?" she began, rolling her eyes. "I think you're the one that's so good at this."
But then he was kissing her again, and rubbing sugar across her lips, and just all kinds of hot things like that. When he pulled her closer she let out her own little squeak and pulled back from the kiss. Nipping gently at his lower lip, she smirked up at him, a bit of a glint in her eye. "This alright?" Steph asked simply as she moved, throwing one leg over his lap so she could sit straddling it. She moved her arms to drape loosely over his shoulders before leaning in to press another kiss to his lips herself, not worried about the lack of privacy due to the curtain being open. It wasn't like she would be trying to get under his clothes or anything. ...not while it was open, at least.
That smirk worked wonders on Dick. Chilly sparks ran down his arms and prickled the skin along his stomach and lower back if she had her hands anywhere near there. Dick certainly did. His hands wandered her sides, her back, and around to her hips when she indicated movement. Supporting her move with both hands, Dick made a sound of approval low in his chest. Leaning to the side, he scraped his teeth along her neck and then licked a long, even stripe over where he'd taken over.
"I think that this will make it hard for you to get a lap dance, but I don't mind it one bit." Leaning forward to kiss her, Dick moved his leg a little so that she fit snuggly against his body. There was room on the side for either dancer to have their fun with both of them, but all that Dick knew right now was that this was better than any dance. He let out a short quivering breath and ran his hands down along her back to cup her ass briefly, and then back up before the dancers arrived.
The curtains to the room were closed and snapped shut. They were essentially in a very private environment. Their drinks had been filled, the music started, and the dancers began to dance against one another, grinding and touching. Dick twisted them both on the surface so that Stephanie had a side view of what they were watching. It put her even closer to him. "I like what I have better than our show, but it's pretty sexy." He slipped his hand under her shirt and ran his fingers along her back.
Stephanie couldn't help the shudder that went through her at the feeling of his hands and mouth, then let out a breathy laugh at his comment. "I could always turn around in your lap so I'm facing them," she suggested as they entered the "room" and Dick repositioned the two of them. Turning her head towards the dancers, she continued to smirk as she looked them over. Oh, they were both super hot. "If we did it that way, you could keep your hands on me and I could get a lap dance. Best of both worlds."
Plus, if she was sitting with her back to his chest, it would put her ass right on top of his crotch, which Stephanie also thought would be a plus side, but wasn't pointing that part out. She was sure he would figure that out on his own.
It was entirely possible that Steph was making Dick think she was incredibly easy, and okay, maybe she was kinda easy that night? But usually she wasn't. She was just... impulsive and turned on.
The thought had crossed his mind, and he figured it'd be a nice and easy way for her to feel how inexplicably turned on all this was making him. He leaned into her ear before he moved her and kissed right below it, licking softly after the touch of lips. “Are you sure you're not a succubus? I don't know when I've ever been turned on so fast before. You have to be magical.” His mouth moved to breathe along her hairline, and he turned her around in his lap.
She was light, and easy enough to maneuver. This was a dangerous thing. He didn't like that he didn't have her mouth, but he could put his in all sorts of places now and affect her in any way he wanted. Sliding his hands around to her stomach, his fingers traced over tight abs and whatever scars were left behind. He opened and closed his thighs slightly against her ass, rubbing himself up against it. He had no idea if she liked that type of sex, but it was what he had for the moment.
Biting at her shoulder, he scraped his teeth over the fabric of her shirt, and called one of the dancers over. It didn't matter who he called over. He wanted them to give her a lap dance, one that would make her pay for exactly how hard he was right now.
"I promise, I don't have a single power," Stephanie answered honestly, chuckling a bit, then let out a squeak when he turned her around so easily. The squeak was fairly quickly followed by a soft whimper when it seemed like Dick was suddenly touching her everywhere. Hands on her stomach, biting at her shoulder, rubbing what at least felt like a fairly sizeable cock against her ass, it was all incredibly hot. Biting at her lip, she tilted her head to the side a bit as she pressed her ass back down against him just slightly.
When the dancers started towards the pair of them, Steph kinda reigned herself back in a bit. Honestly, she had almost forgotten they were there entirely. They were both gorgeous people, and it looked like the woman was planning on taking the first lap dance. Which, honestly? Steph was perfectly okay with that. She'd never had a lap dance of any kind before, and she was certain she would enjoy it. Especially from the seat she was in.
Watching the female dancer move in, she put up her foot on a stool, moved closer to them both, and waved her hips up against Stephanie's thighs in a sensual undulation. She held herself just a stone's throw off of actually touching her, but when Dick slid his cock against her ass, rubbing his growing thickness along her shorts, it might have pushed her up enough to make contact with that rubbing thigh.
Dick slid his hand around to cup one of Stephanie's breasts from under her shirt and licked his lips. He pulled the shirt up enough to expose her bra. He was hoping that if any of this were too much, she'd let him know. He wasn't any more used to doing this type of thing than he imagined she was. He had always kept sexual things locked away in the bedroom, but now the dancer had pulled off her top and was pinching at her breast. It was what Dick wanted, but he had no desire to touch the dancer.
He rolled his hand around Stephanie's smaller, yet very pert breast. He licked up to her ear and ran his cock against her ass again. "Can I do that to you, right here, right now? Touch you like that? Mind if she sees?"

Now and then, he'd spring for a treat, and if he had a girl with him, all the better. "It's not about being a top-shelf girl or not, it's about having a great date, and doing things you wouldn't normally do. Live the fantasy for the night. Why not? I don't care if you love it or not. If you want to order something else later, go ahead, but at least try one bottle. You know? Say you did it."
Reaching over after shifting, Dick squeezed her thigh and ran his hand downward toward her knee to rest there until he needed to shift again. "What's your normal drink of choice?" He asked, curious.

And then his hand was sliding down to her bare knee, which she also enjoyed. How long had it been since anyone touched her outside of a quick friendly hug or a less friendly punch to the face? "I don't really have a drink of choice. I don't really get many chances to drink." Especially between being only twenty and also having her particular brand of night job instead of making her way over to parties at school, there wasn't a lot of opportunity for her. "So I don't know. Maybe some kind of cider? Or some kind of fruity mixed drink? I like things to actually taste good."

Pulling up to the valet entrance, Dick got out of the car while the valet opened up Stephanie's door.
He tossed over the keys and promised the guy an extra tip if the car was in the same condition when it was returned. Moving around the back, he gripped her hand and led her toward the door. "You ready?"

Tugging the strap of her bag over her shoulder, Stephanie climbed out of the car and took his hand, lacing their fingers together. "Yep, I'm ready," she replied simply as he led her towards the door and right past the long line.

He leaned his glass towards hers.

Chuckling, she took the glass and tapped it gently against his before taking a sip. "Hey, this is pretty good," she said simply before setting it down on the table. "But to be fair? This is already the best date I've had in a very long time. That probably says something about the state of my social life, huh? Since we've literally just gotten here." Stephanie had been good and single for going on two years, which was absolutely preferable to dating Tim, but that also meant she hadn't managed to get close to anyone in a long time. Plus she was on-and-off with Tim for three years and he wasn't exactly the best at non-costumed dates very often. Even after she finally learned his real name.
But with Dick, here she was, sitting in a private booth in the fanciest strip club around. See? Worlds better.

One arm stayed around her back, holding her, while the other had his champagne so that he could sip on it. When the waitress showed, he ordered her a lemon drop martini and a whiskey for himself. He also ordered a plate of nachos. They had some of the best he'd ever had in town. Far better than fish eggs, in his opinion, don't tell that to Bruce.
"I'm glad you are enjoying things so far. I can arrange for a male dancer whenever you'd like. He can dance privately for us. This booth has a wall that stretches around for private showings. I can admit that this is the best date I've been on in a very, very long time, which is probably why I want to spoil you so much. It doesn't hurt that you're gorgeous, and hilarious too."

"Ooh, I love nachos." That just had to be added in there before she continued. "Of course I like it so far. I mean, come on. Why wouldn't I? But hey, unless you also want to see a male dancer, there's no need to get one just for me. I'm actually bi, so she-" Stephanie gestured towards the stage, "-is good enough for my eyes." And there was also the added fact that she'd never actually been around exotic dancers before? There really were some hot ones there though.

"Bruce took me in, but like I said, my Bruce is a lot older. Maybe we can swing by the mansion sometime. I can show you my old bedroom." There was a slightly insinuating tone in that last part, switching the night back to something flirty and fun and away from the serious thoughts Dick had brought up. The waitress brought out their drinks and informed them that it would be a few minutes before the nachos arrived.
"Really? See, I am attracted to guys, but I've never been with one; I've only been with females. I haven't found a guy that I mesh with like that yet. It's good we like them both. It will make sitting on a park bench more fun. We can check out everyone who walks by together."
no subject
Shrugging her shoulder, Steph set down her glass and gave the waitress a sweet smile as she thanked her before turning her attention back to her date.
"See, I've never actually been with a woman either, but that doesn't mean much since I've only had like... two boyfriends. I'm well aware that I'm into both anyway."
no subject
Sipping from his drink, Dick tipped his head and laughed softly. "At least we're both consistent somewhere. I have been with a fair share of women, but dated only a few, and I really messed those relationships up. I took some time to work on that and my thoughts about things. I learned a lesson or two from my Teen Titans. Smart buggers. Figured it was time to try out my dating skills again." Dick pressed a kiss next to her ear and glanced only briefly at the waitress who dropped off the nachos.
"You are, by far, the best-looking girl here. We could get one to lap dance for us, and I'd love to see what she thinks of you. The best rule about these dances? They can't touch you."
no subject
The kiss beside her ear came as a surprise and sent a bit of a shudder down the back of her neck - the good kind of shudder - and she grinned slightly bashfully. It was obvious she liked even that small show of affection. "I've only actually dated two guys, and both those relationships were... bad. But I've also taken the last while to figure myself out a bit. So I get that." But her face definitely flushed a good bit when he said she was the best-looking girl there. Steph highly doubted that was true, but it was still nice to hear compliments like that. "Um. Thank you? For- You're really hot, too. By the way. Which I'm sure you know." Oh. That's not exactly what she meant to say, but too late to take it back. It's not like it wasn't the absolute truth.
"But I mean, I wouldn't say no to a dancer coming in here though. Of either gender."
no subject
There was a magnetic pull that Dick couldn't explain. He might normally put an arm around a woman on a date as they walked through a crowd, but the kiss that he shared was beyond the norm, and yet he couldn't find it in himself to feel plussed by it. Nuzzling her neck while they talked sent pleasant shock waves down his spine and along his arms, bringing up the hairs that rested there. He could admit- it had been a long time since he'd felt like this.
There was a shake of Dick's head when she complimented him. He dropped his face onto her shoulder and laughed softly. "People say that, but I don't ever think about it. I don't feel anything more than terribly normal most of the time. You've got those eyes, and that wonderful nose that sets off all your features, and beautiful lips. Man, I keep thinking how soft they must feel." Dick licked his own without thinking about it and swept his hand along her perfectly gilded cheekbone.
"Let me call over the dancing host, and we can pick someone out to dance for us. If you see anyone you like, let me know and we'll get them right away."
no subject
But then he was dropping his head and calling himself normal of all things, so she turned her head to be able to see him, at least a little. "Terribly normal? Well that's some bull. I've always thought you were hot." The version from her Earth, at least. Which, you know, looked like the one that was touching her and complimenting her. And no, she never told Tim that she was attracted to his brother-type-turned-actual-adoptive-brother. And then he was complimenting her again and Stephanie couldn't help the way her cheeks pinkened.
"Yeah, my nose really pulls my face together, huh?" she joked, downplaying the way he complimented her. Because she felt like she was the terribly normal one between the two of them. In pretty much all the ways. But she couldn't help the way her eyes dropped to watch when he licked his lips, or the way that made her face heat just a touch more.
"Okay, yeah. You can call them over."
no subject
Leaning in, Dick brushed his lips softly against hers. It was like he was drawn in one magnet to another, poles attracting. Her lips were everything he thought they would be. He opened his mouth slightly so that he could run his tongue along her bottom lip, tasting and teasing. He hummed while he sampled the light flavors and slightly hidden darker ones.
Dick's hand rested against her thigh, and he squeezed it slightly. He knew it was far too forward for such an early date, but he couldn't be bothered to care. It felt right, she felt right.
no subject
When they did touch, however, Stephanie's eyes slid closed and she leaned into it, being just as gentle and slow with the kiss as Dick was. She even parted her own lips for him as she tried to ignore things like the tiny sparks she felt wherever they were making contact, or that little hum that slipped out of him, because, let's be honest. Those things were a bit of a turn-on.
And that hand on her thigh certainly wasn't unwelcome, either. In return, she brought her own hand up to cup the side of Dick's neck gently, letting her thumb dance over the edge of his jaw as she let her tongue twist with his, savoring him as well.
no subject
Licking across her tongue and then against her bottom lip as if it were a pause button, Dick gripped at her thigh a little tighter. He briefly tipped his head, keeping it pressed to hers as he did. "Lap dance, private, female and male, not timed." Why not go for both when they could? Turning his head back to her, he smiled and let out a long breath. "Wow. I knew it was going to be a good kiss, but you made it hard to think. I barely registered the waitress there with her jaw around her ankles. Once we get our privacy, we can close the curtains, and no one will see in here."
Leaning back in, Dick kissed Stephanie again and then again. Then he took the sweet flecks of sugar from the top of her drink and brushed them over her lips. Laughing softly, he licked and kissed her so he had them on his lips when they leaned in for their next kiss. This time, he didn't let up. He moved enough to pull her into him as they kissed, letting out another sound of pleasure. This one was closer to a moan than a sigh, or hum.
no subject
But then he was kissing her again, and rubbing sugar across her lips, and just all kinds of hot things like that. When he pulled her closer she let out her own little squeak and pulled back from the kiss. Nipping gently at his lower lip, she smirked up at him, a bit of a glint in her eye. "This alright?" Steph asked simply as she moved, throwing one leg over his lap so she could sit straddling it. She moved her arms to drape loosely over his shoulders before leaning in to press another kiss to his lips herself, not worried about the lack of privacy due to the curtain being open. It wasn't like she would be trying to get under his clothes or anything. ...not while it was open, at least.
no subject
"I think that this will make it hard for you to get a lap dance, but I don't mind it one bit." Leaning forward to kiss her, Dick moved his leg a little so that she fit snuggly against his body. There was room on the side for either dancer to have their fun with both of them, but all that Dick knew right now was that this was better than any dance. He let out a short quivering breath and ran his hands down along her back to cup her ass briefly, and then back up before the dancers arrived.
The curtains to the room were closed and snapped shut. They were essentially in a very private environment. Their drinks had been filled, the music started, and the dancers began to dance against one another, grinding and touching. Dick twisted them both on the surface so that Stephanie had a side view of what they were watching. It put her even closer to him. "I like what I have better than our show, but it's pretty sexy." He slipped his hand under her shirt and ran his fingers along her back.
no subject
Plus, if she was sitting with her back to his chest, it would put her ass right on top of his crotch, which Stephanie also thought would be a plus side, but wasn't pointing that part out. She was sure he would figure that out on his own.
It was entirely possible that Steph was making Dick think she was incredibly easy, and okay, maybe she was kinda easy that night? But usually she wasn't. She was just... impulsive and turned on.
no subject
She was light, and easy enough to maneuver. This was a dangerous thing. He didn't like that he didn't have her mouth, but he could put his in all sorts of places now and affect her in any way he wanted. Sliding his hands around to her stomach, his fingers traced over tight abs and whatever scars were left behind. He opened and closed his thighs slightly against her ass, rubbing himself up against it. He had no idea if she liked that type of sex, but it was what he had for the moment.
Biting at her shoulder, he scraped his teeth over the fabric of her shirt, and called one of the dancers over. It didn't matter who he called over. He wanted them to give her a lap dance, one that would make her pay for exactly how hard he was right now.
no subject
When the dancers started towards the pair of them, Steph kinda reigned herself back in a bit. Honestly, she had almost forgotten they were there entirely. They were both gorgeous people, and it looked like the woman was planning on taking the first lap dance. Which, honestly? Steph was perfectly okay with that. She'd never had a lap dance of any kind before, and she was certain she would enjoy it. Especially from the seat she was in.
no subject
Dick slid his hand around to cup one of Stephanie's breasts from under her shirt and licked his lips. He pulled the shirt up enough to expose her bra. He was hoping that if any of this were too much, she'd let him know. He wasn't any more used to doing this type of thing than he imagined she was. He had always kept sexual things locked away in the bedroom, but now the dancer had pulled off her top and was pinching at her breast. It was what Dick wanted, but he had no desire to touch the dancer.
He rolled his hand around Stephanie's smaller, yet very pert breast. He licked up to her ear and ran his cock against her ass again. "Can I do that to you, right here, right now? Touch you like that? Mind if she sees?"
