There's the instant feeling of regret and shame when Dick realizes that Iggy hadn't been a willing partner to what Dick thought was a fun little romp of slightly public, but still hidden tom-foolery. It wasn't like Dick was a full on exhibitionist, but he did like the idea of being outside in semi-public and goofing around.
It wasn't like he hadn't played around before like this with his girlfriends. He didn't think about how Iggy was used to being treated, and how it would be very different for Dick to take control like that.
"I- I'm so sorry. You know I'd never want you to feel like that. I. I'm used to being playful and teasing my lovers like that. I have to remember that you're different. You're more precious, and I wouldn't have taken any chances if there were families. I'm good at knowing when there are people around because of the Nightwing thing. I'm still really sorry Iggy. I never should have touched you like that without your permission."
He looks over, and drops his head. Reaching over, he holds out his palm. "Can you forgive me? I promise I won't do it again while we're here."
