If only Dick knew. And he would, just as soon as Hartley worked up the nerve to tell him.
Hartley smiled more realistically this time and bumped his shoulder against Dick's affectionately as the younger man laced their fingers together. He had no problem with the gesture however and squeezed Dick's fingers reassuringly in answer. "It's okay, really."
Once they made it out onto the street and back towards where Piper had parked his car, shock of shocks, no one really paid them any mind. It wasn't like they were back in the 50's and 60's where gay men had to hide their lifestyle from the general public. Sure, there were still homophobes and people who objected to the gay lifestyle but Piper had learned to have a thick skin where they were concerned.
After all, he'd had to listen to just about every deprecating remark from the Rogues over the years. Having cybernetically enhanced hearing could be a bitch sometimes. It was only after they approached Piper's car that Hartley withdrew his hand from Dick's and that was so he could dig out his keys and unlock the door.
