One Night

Disclaimer: Nothing is mine but the story.
A/N: Based on a self-challenge I gave to myself to see what kind of drabbles/one shots I could pull off by listening to certain songs and within certain perameters for said songs.
Pairing: Batman/Gordon
~One Night ~
They understood each other. Each saw the value in justice and in humanity, though some, like the Joker, sought to show humanity's "true" place. At first their meetings had been tentative, unsure. For both parties, it was a matter of trust, something they both had for each other to be sure, but in this case...it was a first for both. For Gordon, he had a wife and two children, though his marriage was strained at best, and had been for awhile now, before...any of this.
For Batman, it meant even more; it meant revealing himself, all of himself. Though Gordon may well have figured him out, who he was underneath his true face. To give up the mask, was to signify something tremendous.
It happened one night, quite suddenly. After speaking to Gordon, he holds onto the edges of his mask and takes it off slowly.
Gordon never blinks twice.
"Thank you for showing me, Bruce. I've waited."
"I know."
Hesitance, then... a kiss.

A/N: This is just one of many challenges that I did based upon a song. All of them together can be found at my livejournal (the link of which you can find at my profile.)
