"So this is the bat cave?" Asked Max, as she looked around.
"Yes." Replies Terry irritably. "Now can we get outta here? The old man will be back any second."
"Not so fast BatBoy." She says, turning to face him. "I intend to extend my blackmailing rights to the fullest extent."
A small growl pushes its way out of Terry's throat. He knows that if he's caught in here with Max, he'll be in trouble. Like big trouble. "Alright," He manages, "but hurry!"
She glances around one more time. "I expected more."
"Yeah. Great."
"Are you listening to me?" She asks, turning to him.
"Yes. I mean no. Oh, who cares? Come on! Hurry up!"
"I thought you said that the old man was out of town."
"He is!" Protested Terry. "That's exactly my point! You never know when he might be coming back, or if he has got cameras hidden all over!"
She nods absentmindedly. "Yeah."
"Are you listening to me?" Terry asks, his words echoing the ones that Max spoke only moments earlier.
"Yes. I mean no. Who cares? This is so shway!"
"Com' on Max!"
She nods, and reaches down to pet Ace, who is surprisingly calm. She walks over to the bat computer, her eyes filled with awe. "This is so so so shway! I bet you could hack into every computer in the world with this system!"
"Yeah, I guess." Terry says, glancing back at the door for what feels like the millionth time.
She runs her hands over the grey surface of the keyboard. Then her eyes catch on the bat mobile. "Hey Ter!"
"What?"
"You think you could take me for a ride?"
"No! Of course not!"
"Okay…I guess the whole school will find out." She says, waving her hand dismissively. "No skin off my nose."
"Fine…" Terry growls. "Give me a sec."
Max waits while Terry pulls himself in the bat suit, and tosses her a mask. "Really?" She asks.
"Yeah." He grumbles back. "Unless you want the whole world to figure out that you know Batman."
"That would be kinda shway."
"Max…"
"Fine!" She yanks on the mask. "Happy?"
"Not really." Terry grumbles, and pulls her in the bat mobile.
"This is soooooooooooooo shway!" Says Max for the millionth time.
Terry just nods, looking at the lights below. "Time to go back."
"Com' on Ter, we just started!"
"We've been up here for hours Max."
"Fine." She mumbles, like a sulking kid.
When they end up back at the mansion, she climbs out of the bat mobile. "Thanks for the ride Ter." He takes his mask off, and she can't stop her self from thinking about how handsome he looks.
"Welcome." Then he mumbles something about how he didn't have much of a choice.
Suddenly, before she can stop herself, she reaches forward and touches his lips softly with her own.
They taste like oranges.
And all of this started because of his duck underwear.
A/N. I had to do a disclaimer. But isn't it fluffy?
O.K. not really, but I don't excel at that stuff.
