“No, absolutely not.” Dick was shaking his head emphatically, his arms crossed.

“If you aren’t comfortable with this, you don’t have to, Barbara. We’ll find another way to infiltrate the club,” said Bruce.

“I offered to do it. I’m fine with it. I’m definitely the most qualified here,” said Barbara, raising an eyebrow.

“I’m not fine with it!” Dick said.

“How else are you going to get backstage?”

“I’ll go undercover.”

“It’s not that kind of club,” she pointed out dryly.

“You’re my girlfriend! I don’t want a bunch of creepy guys watching you!”

Bruce cleared his throat awkwardly in the middle of their discussion. “Dick, we really don’t have time for this. It will be very easy for Barbara to get inside. We will be there if anything goes wrong.”

“It’s settled then,” she said loftily. “Now, if you’ll excuse me, I need to practice my exotic dancing.”

A pause and then -

“Can I at least -“

“NO!”

“I still don’t like this,” Dick muttered as he and Bruce were let in the door. It was a very high class, secretive gentlemen’s club. No one would be surprised to find Bruce Wayne there, or even that he would bring his adult son (father of the year).

“You’ve made your opinion known. Voice it again and you’re leaving,” he said stiffly through a smile.

Dick attempted to relax, gulping his drink anxiously as each girl went on stage. Each act seemed to get racier and racier. Bruce had gotten up and started mingling with a few other patrons, leaving him with his discomfort.

And then a tall, redheaded woman stepped on the stage and the music started.

Where did she learn that?

Dick was entranced, leaning forward in his chair as Barbara danced.

Her costume showed off her long legs and toned abs. As she slowly pulled off parts, her eyes searched the room until they locked on his. And suddenly, she was performing for just him. Her strong, limber body impressively spun around the pole in the center of the stage.

And then she climbed off the stage and sauntered towards him.

It was part of the plan, so they could make their move later on. But he was having trouble remembering it when she was in his lap.

“Focusing on the mission, Boy Wonder,” she murmured in his ear. He felt her hand at his pocket as she slipped him the bracelet that served as a camera and recorder.

“Uh …” he replied intelligently. It was hard to think when was leaning over him like that, her chest very much in his face.

“You better pay me soon,” she suggested, soundly slightly amused. “Keep up the act.”

He wasn’t sure how he managed to extract the money from his pocket but she patiently waited for him to slip in the top part of her tiny costume.

“See you at home.” She nipped at his earlobe and pulled away, strolling back towards the platform.
