Lisa: Okay let's do this.

Rochelle Grayson P.O.V.

Do you ever wonder why Richard is the name for the nickname Dick? I know I do. Why would someone have such a horrible nickname? Sometimes I don't feel like I belong with the other Robins. Cassie always insists that this is my place too cause my mom was an idiot and slept with Bruce. Sometimes I really just don't understand though. Why do I have to feel this pain?

Dick is such a weird name. I always wonder why it is the nickname for Richard, wait I already said that. Lately, I just can't get the nickname out of my head. I swear I'm not thinking anything bad but the poor person that is stuck in my superspeed brain needs to keep up with me. 

Billy Joel is cool, a friend of mine told me about him. He sings these awesome songs. We're taking a trip to Ohio for this cool music thing. It's called gleek or something, Stephany's friend online is performing or something. Bruce approved of course. Her name is Rachel or something that starts with an R. She's getting married too! Jon and I should get married someday. He's the only one that understands how different I feel.

We arrived in Ohio and it was busy. I ran into a boy with a blazer on and he looked down at me.

"Are you lost little one?" he asked smiling. I nodded. "My name is Sebastian Smythe, what's yours so I can help you find your parents or the person that you're with?" he asked still smiling.

"I'm Rochelle Grayson-Wayne, I'm here with my sisters Stephany Brown-Wayne and Cassie Caine-Wayne," I said holding his hand.

"Sebastian! You stole my friend's sister!" a girl who must have been Rachel screeched walking toward us with my sisters.

"No, he didn't he asked me what my name was and said that he would help me find Stephany and Cassie," I said to the lady glaring.

"No offense Steph but your sister is kind of scary, Ricky I'm Rachel and I'm the one that you're here to see not this guy trust me he's bad news," Rachel said as she picked me up placing me on her hip.

"You seem just a little self-centered, it was fun meeting you Seb... Sebas... Sebasteee... Sebby," I said smiling. He kind of laughed and shook my hand with his larger one.

"Great to meet you too Rochelle Grayson-Wayne," he said winking. Rachel carried me off going on about something and taking me backstage. This was just going to be a joy. (hint of sarcasm)

Timeskip

It was after the concert that I realized that these people were fighting and I wanted Sebby to win. I even had a pet name for him. Sebby seemed nice, he wasn't trying too hard as Rachel said and he didn't look like a child predator that Bruce told me to pepper spray. He seemed nice and friendly. I wanted him to be my friend. 

We walked into a coffee shop the next day and I saw Sebby sitting all by himself.

"Sebby?" I asked looking at him.

"Hello, Rochelle Grayson-Wayne come sit with me," he said pointing to the spot next to him. "Here, this is my phone number just in case you ever need to call me, alright?" Sebby said passing me the paper. I reached up and hugged him. 

"Thanks, Sebby, maybe someday I will finally figure out how to say your full name," I said laughing.

"I hope you do," Sebby said ruffling my hair as I walked out of the door.

Why is the nickname for Richard Dick? Well because there are a lot of dicks in Ohio named Richard.
