This one-shot started as a gif I put on my tumblr page, then my friend tylily requested me to turn it into a FF and this is the results. I think I will use this story for multiple other batcat one-shots, either requested by fans and friends or from my own mind xD


1. A heart's secrets

Fish was out with some of her monsters to collect medicines for their mutations. This time it was an easy job so she didn't need Selina to open doors for her, which the young street girl was pleased about. It gave her the opportunity to get to know one of the younger female monsters, Nancy.

"I don't remember much about the live I had before Indian Hill?" Nancy whispered behind her mask. "I guess that is something Strange took away from me, and now I wouldn't know how to survive without Fish or my brother, Sid."

Selina sits up from her thin mattress then frowns; "Sid is your brother?"

Nancy, who lied beside her on the mattress like best buddies, looked at the street girl then asks; "Yeah, why you ask?"

"Oh you know, he doesn't look like you at all."

"Yeah, that's all that creepy professor's fault," Nancy grumbled and clenched her fists slightly. "Sid had amazing dark hair before Strange did those experiments on him."

Selina smirks then slumps back into the pillows; "I expected him to be blond."

"What?" This time Nancy sat up and frowns; "Why did you think he would be blond?"

Selina simply shrugs then says instead of answering Nancy's question; "I also expected him to be your boyfriend."

"Speaking about boyfriend's, do you have one, Cat?" Nancy blurted out.

Selina starts to blush slightly at that question then looks away.

"I take that as a yes."

Selina instantly snapped her eyes back onto Nancy and scowls; "That's a no!"

"Oh come on, there must be someone you like? Otherwise you wouldn't blush like that."

Selina throws a pillow at Nancy's face then jumps up from the matrass and strolls to the living room, which is still empty. Nancy followed instantly then drops beside Selina on the couch.

"What's his name?"

Selina turns the TV on and ignores Nancy as she pretends to be engrossed with the show. Nancy didn't give up, though.

"Come on, I won't tell, promise."

Selina drops the remote with an eye roll then replies; "Fine, his name is Bruce Wayne, but he's just a FRIEND!"

"Okay…"

Selina sighs deep then comments; "He's too squeaky clean for my taste. Not to mention that awful sense of humor, or the fact he's over thinking everything, or over analysing stuff. Though, he can cook so I guess that's his only plus. Other than that he's stubborn, gullible, pristine clean, and don't make me start about his clothing. Also, that little brat ditched me for six months of Switzerland, can you believe it? Of course I told him that Italy is better. "

There is a long awkward pause, then Selina drags in another annoyed sigh and blurts out; "Fine, I guess there is something between us. I mean, when that backstabbing silver haired bimbo came along…

"You felt slightly jealous?"

"No! I felt…I felt…a suddenly invisible gap between me and Bruce. I mean, that clean dress of hers, the pretty hair, the clean face… I suddenly started to realize I wasn't the only girl in Bruce's world anymore. And what I hated the most was that I didn't know why I felt like that. I'm a loner, always have been, but when Bruce told me he missed me, and when I thought I lost my best friend, I wanted nothing else than be with him. But she was there, Silver."

Nancy listened with her elbow leaning on the backrest of the couch while resting her hand into the palm then comments; "She sounds horrible."

"She was!" Selina stated. "I could sense it when she walked in the room, only I tried to give her the benefit of the doubt for Bruce's sake, but then she told him to inform his crappy butler about my arrival, and the stupid kid took the bait like a gullible fish and left me alone with that two-faced bitch."

"What happened?"

Selina grunts while thinking about it the replies; "She told me to back off. She told me Bruce was her friend, and hers only. After she called me street trash I wanted to punch her pristine face so hard, but Bruce walked back in and she played all innocent again. She suddenly made me remember why I kept a twenty feet distance away from rich people. Unless they have something to snatch of course."

"Is she still around?"

"No. I unmasked her true intentions and Bruce trampled her poor little heart, though I doubt those tears were fake and I think she only pretended to be heartbroken, but the look on her face when she found out that her kidnapping and Bruce's was just staged from Bruce's part, was just priceless."

Selina laughs about her own comment then looks serious again and starts fidgeting with her sleeve of her jacket; "I guess there is nothing more than friendship between me and Bruce Wayne. I am kidding myself to think if the feelings are mutual."

"Do you want it to be mutual?"

Selina shrugs; "I don't know, maybe. I mean, after my mom left me I made a promise to myself to never come close to another person. My mom's 'love' didn't make her love me enough to stay, so why would anyone else? At certain points I don't even know what I feel for Bruce is truly love. He's the most idiotic boy I ever met. He gets himself into danger over and over again without doing pretty much nothing. It's his skill, that's for sure. When we were on the streets together for a while, and we met new people, he was like; 'hi, I'm Bruce Wayne,' which resulted into getting chased ALL the time. There was even this time it seemed like we nailed our job, but I stupidly knocked my arm and dropped the bag with money. I told Bruce to leave it, but he wanted to be heroically and grabbed it anyway. Once we were safe on the next building and the crook was roaring at us, Bruce opened the bag and grabbed a handful of money before making it rain onto the people on the streets bellow. I was furious at him and that moment my feelings for him was like throwing him down that building than rush down myself to catch him."

"Sounds like someone is in love with Bruce Wayne," a boy's voice guffawed and the two girls looked at the door in alarm noticing Sid grinning at them.

Selina was in too much of a shock to respond at that moment, but Nancy grunts angrily; "Sid, how many times do I have to tell you to not use your new ability to sneak up on people and listen at their conversations!"

Sid simply smirks; "You can't tell me what to do, sis. In fact, I'm going to use my speed ability to visit Wayne Manor and tell that rich boy all about the affections your new friend here has for him."

Nancy jumps to her feet then exclaims; "Sid, I demand you to-

"I'LL KILL YOU IF YOU DO!" Selina suddenly yelled then jumped to her feet as well.

Instead of being taken aback by Selina's threat, Sid grinned and sped off. Selina storms after him, and so does Nancy. Before Selina has the chance to spurt out the front door, Nancy sprints around her and blocks her path in the doorway.

"I'm sorry, Cat, but I can't let you kill my idiotic brother."

Selina grabs her knife then scowls; "Fine, I'll guess I can always slice you like a kipper?"

"A what?"

"I have no idea, but according to Bruce's crappy butler it's some British smoked fish."

Nancy's starts to ponder as if she's trying to picture herself being sliced like a foreign fish then steps out the way and says; "You know what, I'll just let you catch my brother instead. It will learn him to not eaves drop on people."

"Excellent decision, Nancy. SID, GET YOUR BUTT BACK BEFORE I KILL YOU!"

And with that, Selina storms after Sid who now ran on normal human speed because it seemed the ability Hugo gave him was like a battery and needed to be charged every now and then. Not that it made him scared, because he noticed he could still out run his sister's crazy friend and tell Bruce Wayne about the secrets in her heart.
