A/N: Okay so I really like this story and I hope you do too! Enjoy and review!
Would-be Bride
Joker felt his heart starting to weigh more. His little princess of crime. Gone. He pulled his legs up to his chest. Tears fell from his eyes. And pain. Utter pain filled his heart.
The night had started with a regular old jewel heist. She had found the most gorgeous string of pearls. Painted black and red so they matched her harlequin costume.
'Do ya like um puddin?' She had asked
'Baby on you anything looks good.' He replied. She had beamed. That little complement. That small gesture had sent her for the stars. And then she came crashing down.
The blank look on her face surprised him. But not as much as the blank look on his face. Oh God. He caught her as she fell. No. He turned to the police officer that had shot her. He would be known as 'The Man Who Killed Harley' from now on. And he couldn't stand it. He pulled out a gun from his pocket and shot. He shot and shot and shot. Finally he picked up Harley and ran.
His chest hurt. His breathing was all wrong. What was this?
"Puddin?" Harley croaked in her perfect high-pitched voice. "Are you hurt?"
"What?!" He almost yelled. He felt the girl cringe in his arms. He softened."No. No pudding I'm fine. You just hold on I'm getting you to a hospital."
"But they'll arrest you and you'll have to go back to Arkum." She squealed.
"Now don't you worry. Everything will work out princess. I'll break us out and we'll go back to normal." Though in his heart he knew he was lying.
"Yeah. And I'll make sandwiches and we'll go down to our little spot and have a pick-nick."
"That's right! And we'll bring the hyenas just for extra laughs." He had sat down.
"And we can make barbecue together and I can finally teach you how to swim like I promised."
"That's right. And then we'll go into the small town and raid the place with toilet paper and eggs. And we'll give all the little children nightmares. Would you like that?" She nodded.
"I love you puddin."
"I love you too princess." She closed her eyes and felt the life began to slip away from her. The best part was, he was acting like he loved her. And she knew that he did.
He stood. HOW DARE THEY?! NO ONE TOOK HIS PRINCESS. ESPECIALLY NOT ANY LOWLIFE POLICE NOBODY WHO BARLEY HAD A JOB! NO ONE HURT HER EXCEPT HIM! THEY WERE GOING TO PAY! ALL OF GOTHAM WAS GOING TO FEEL HIS PAIN! The pain for his princess. His love. His would-be bride.
