8:29 AM, Wayne Manor


As consciousness swept over me I opened one eye lazily to see sunshine peeping through the pure white curtains as though it was desperate to get in.

"No need for that anymore, I have Diana for that."

Upon mentioning her name I felt a smile sneak onto my face. I turned my head to see if she still asleep. Feeling her warm soft hands on my shoulder reminded me of the comfort she brought me when I needed it.

Taking my hand I reached over and removed the silky, black hair that blocked out her face. "That's better."

Diana began to stir up from the touch of my hand and opened one of her eyes catching me again.

She smiled.

"Did you sleep well?" She yawned. I blushed and looked away with a small smirk on my face. "Yeah." I murmured. "And you?" She stares at me and moves closer. Close enough to hear her heartbeat in my ear. "I had a nice dream." I move my arm to warp it around her waist allowing her to come closer and snuggle on my shoulder.

I close my eyes and relax. "So what was your dream about?" I ask.

Only silence.

I feel her shift uncomfortably beside me. I lazily open my left eye and see she looks unsure of whether she should tell her secret dream.

I smirk. She's easy to read, like an open book.

For some unknown reason I want to pressure her to tell me what little secret she's hiding. Feeling a bit excited I lean in close to her. "You know I have ways of making you talk." I say in my deep rich voice.

Diana looks at me with surprise etched on her face but quickly grins. I get up from beside her and place my hands between her. Looking amused she shifts so she can look directly at me.

"And how will you do that Mr. Batman?" I grin and place my hand on her stomach causing her to blush.

Leaning in closer and I nuzzle her ear and whisper, "With laughter."

Before she could speak another word I began to assault her stomach with tickles.

Diana begins to laugh and giggle like I never heard her do before. She tries to wrestle her way out of my arms but this only made me tickle her harder keeping her distracted.

"Willing to tell me your secret now princess?" I smirked knowing I had control over a very powerful Amazon.

She gasped for air and snorted before hearing a cough from the door.

I stopped and looked up to see my butler Alfred at the door looking amused to see that I and Diana were awake this morning.

"How are you doing this morning Master Bruce and Miss Diana?" Diana gives me a strong push and I fall right beside her.

"Were doing wonderful Alfred, we were just...talking." She replied nervously.

"Hmm, yes indeed your highness." Alfred places a gloved hand over his mouth and turns so we can't see, I presumed to cover up a cheeky smile.

"Would you like some breakfast in bed today your Highness?"

"Yes please Alfred, we'll be here for quite some time, I have to repay Bruce back for the torture he placed on me earlier." She said with an evil grin on her face.

I pale a bit and swallow nervously but I try not to show it.

"Let's hope she's gentle." I said in my mind as she placed her hands on my stomach. The secret would have to wait till later.
